IMPORTANT NOTE:

 

The UZC4 Zone Control System allows Heat Pump or Conventional Multi-Stage 

thermostats to be wired to all Zones!

Thermostat demands to 

stage up

, will always over-ride any programmed staging operation. The UZC4 will 

remain in Multi-stage mode until that terminal is de-energized. If this occurs in dual fuel mode or emergency mode,   
the UZC4 will stay in that mode until 

all

 Heating demands are satisfied. On the next heating cycle, the UZC4 will 

attempt to activate 1st stage heat unless, Emergency Mode is still active, or the outdoor temperature is low and 
OAS / DF has been selected. This comfort over-ride feature provides true versatility to your zoning system, and 
gives the homeowner comfort control capability over the system.

Choose the type of Reversing Valve

 you want to control. Select

 

O

 

, if your heat pump reversing valve energizes in cooling and 

defaults to heat mode. Select

 B, 

 if your reversing valve energizes in heating and defaults to cool mode. 

NOTE:

 The UZC4 will hold

 the “O” output or the “B” output continuously, even during idle periods, until a thermostatic demand to change modes is detected.

NOTE:

 Proper setting of this switch is critical. The reversing valve will not function properly if this switch is not set correctly.

 OFF  < ZDL >  ON

Select ON and the UZC4 will limit HVAC operations based on the total number of zones calling for conditioned air.

 

16% or 1/6 of the total number of zones (rounded up) must be calling for the same mode of operation, or the UZC4 

will not

 

activate the HVAC system. 

This feature only activates at 8 or more zones.

 

Select OFF if you do not want to utilize the Zone 

Demand Limiter feature.

 

NOTE:

 

Zone 1 is not affected by this feature. Zone 1 demands are always honored.

 

ZDL example: 

A zone system has 20 total zones and the ZDL feature is active; At least 4 zones must be calling for the same mode of 
operation (Heat or Cool) or the UZC4 

will not 

activate the HVAC system. 

18zone=3, 16zone=3, 14zone=3, 12zone=2, 10zone=2, 8zone=2.

Select which thermostat(s) can activate a demand for Continuous Fan Operation.

 Choose “ANY”, and the UZC4 will 

honor

 any

 thermostat demand to activate continuous fan, and only the dampers connected to that zone will open. All others 

will close.  Choose “Z1”, and the UZC4 will honor a demand to activate continuous fan from 

zone 1 only

. All connected 

dampers on all zones will open. Demands to activate continuous fan from any other thermostat will be ignored. 

NOTE:

 Continuous Fan Operations will only occur when there are no active or pending heat or cool operations.
