Wireless System Overview
Viconics VZ72005x00W zone thermostats are used in conjunction with the VZ7656B1000W roof top
controller thermostats. When combined, they operate typical single or multistage RTUs and their
associated local zones. The system operates the same as in the BACnet MS-TP wired version, but
operate using ZigBee/IEEE 802.15.4 physical layer for the communication bus.

The system can be used in fully stand-alone mode or in communication mode with the Viconics VWG /
Jace-Driver set to expose the thermostat(s) objects externally.
(SA)
Stand-Alone applications: Where zoning system(s) are self sufficient for communication and no
external communication is required. In this configuration, the VZ76xx RTU thermostat acts as the
network coordinator. (More than one can be installed in a typical building application).
(NS)
Networked Systems: Where zoning system(s) are required to communication with the Viconics
VWG and Jace-Driver set. In this configuration, the Viconics VWG and Jace-driver acts as the network
coordinator. (More than one can be installed in a typical building application).
