Using Limit Level Indicator

The final setting of the bypass for best performance has always been something of a black art. The 3-Zone System has a new feature to simplify this adjustment. While the system is operating, these limit level numbers, if greater than zero, are flashed on the status LED.

Once the proper LAT limit choice is made based on equipment maximum rise, the limit level indicator assists in setting the bypass pressure adjustment. See System Setup for details.

Installer Test Mode

Dipswitch 4 selects a special Installer Test Mode, designed to assist the installer (or service person) to commission the system. It verifies damper movement in proper zone and that the heating and cooling equipment operates properly at each stage. When this mode is selected, by moving dipswitch 4 to ON, the following sequence will be executed once:

Step 1 — Two minutes, one flash of status LED. The blower is energized with G, damper 1 opens, and other dampers are closed.

Step 2 — Two minutes, two flashes of LED: With the blower on, damper 1 closes and damper 2 opens.

Step 3 — Two minutes, three flashes of LED: With the blower ON, damper 3 opens and damper 2 closes.

Step 4 — Two minutes, four flashes of LED: All dampers open, first stage of heat turns on. For HP control only, this is followed by the second stage of heat (HP plus aux heat, hi HP, or hi furnace) for two more minutes. For HP control with two stage compressor, the third stage of heat (hi HP plus aux heat) comes on for a third 2 minute period.

Step 5 — Two minutes, five flashes of LED: All dampers are open and first stage of cooling turns on for 2 minutes. For HP board only, second stage of cooling comes on for an additional 2 minutes.

At the end of Step 5, the control returns to normal operation. To restart the test sequence, the switch must be moved to OFF and then back to ON.

If zoning is disabled (Switch 5 = ON), the procedure above will be followed, except all the dampers will remain open throughout the sequence.

SYSTEM SETUP

Thermostats

Read the thermostat Installation Instructions and be sure to complete the required setup of these devices before using them to bring on the equipment. If the thermostats have a zoningselection, be sure to turn it on. This will eliminate the timers within the thermostat and allow the 3-Zone control’s timers to do their job.

There are 8 dipswitch settings on the AC zone control and an additional 4 on the HP board. Below is a table summarizing their function. Below the table is a more detailed description of what each does and how to set it properly for your application.

Dipswitches

Dipswitch 1- This determines whether or not a minimum time must pass before the control is allowed to transition between heating and cooling or vice versa. If it is set to ON, there is no time requirement. Default is OFF.

Dipswitch 2 - This switch, together with dipswitch 3, determines the changeover time, effective if switch 1 is OFF. ON sets 30 minutes. OFF sets 20 minutes. Default is OFF.

Dipswitch 3 - This is a multiplier, modifying the time set on switch

2.ON multiplies the set time by 0.5. OFF multiplies the set time by 1.0. Default is OFF.

Dipswitch 4 - This selects the Installer Test Mode, used to check system operation. Details are provided in section Installer Test. ON selects Installer Test. OFF selects normal operation. Default is OFF.

Dipswitch 5 - Enables and disables zoning. ON disables zoning, with all dampers open and zone 1 thermostat controlling. OFF selects normal zoning operation. Default is OFF.

Dipswitch 6 - Selects G ON or OFF with W. Selecting ON causes G to be energized whenever W is energized. Selecting OFF does

Carrier ZONECC3Z Limit Temperature Levels and Actions, Dipswitch Settings For HP Control Only, System Setup

ZONECC3Z specifications

The Carrier ZONECC3Z is a cutting-edge climate control solution that has made a significant impact in the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) industry. As a versatile and efficient system, the ZONECC3Z is particularly designed to address the specific needs of residential and commercial spaces, providing unparalleled comfort while optimizing energy usage.

One of the main features of the ZONECC3Z is its advanced zoning capabilities. This system allows users to create separate temperature zones within a building, ensuring that each area can be heated or cooled according to its unique requirements. This not only enhances comfort but also improves energy efficiency, as only the zones that require climate control are actively managed. With this system, occupants can enjoy personalized comfort in different rooms or areas, reducing energy waste and costs.

Incorporating state-of-the-art technology, the ZONECC3Z is equipped with smart controls that enable intuitive management of the system. Users can monitor and adjust settings remotely through a user-friendly mobile app or a web-based interface. This connectivity feature allows for seamless integration with smart home devices and automation systems, enhancing user convenience and enabling proactive energy management.

Another key characteristic of the ZONECC3Z is its variable-speed compressor technology. This feature allows the system to adjust its cooling and heating output dynamically, responding to real-time temperature changes. This results in a quieter operation and greater efficiency, as the system avoids the on-and-off cycling common in traditional HVAC units. Consequently, users benefit from consistent indoor temperatures and lower utility bills.

The ZONECC3Z is also designed with sustainability in mind. It employs eco-friendly refrigerants that significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. With energy efficiency ratings that often exceed industry standards, this system can play a vital role in reducing the carbon footprint of buildings, making it an attractive option for environmentally conscious consumers.

In summary, the Carrier ZONECC3Z stands out as a powerful, efficient, and flexible solution for modern climate control needs.
