Installation Instructions

MS-ZFR1812-x
Application
Use the ZFR1812 Wireless Field Bus Router only to
provide an input to equipment under normal
operating conditions. Where failure or malfunction of
the ZFR1812 Router could lead to personal injury or
property damage to the controlled equipment or
other property, additional precautions must be
designed into the control system. Incorporate and
maintain other devices, such as supervisory or
alarm systems or safety or limit controls, intended to
warn of or protect against failure or malfunction of
the ZFR1812 Router.
IMPORTANT: The ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field
Bus System is not designed or intended for use in
mission-critical or life/safety applications.
A ZFR1812 Wireless Field Bus Router is used with
Advanced Application Field Equipment Controllers
(FACs), Field Equipment Controllers (FECs), Input/
Output Modules (IOMs), and Variable Air Volume
Modular Assembly (VMA) Series field controllers.
The ZFR1812 Router provides a wireless interface
between:
a field controller and the supervisory controller (by
means of a ZFR1810 Coordinator)
a field controller and associated WRZ Series
Wireless Room Sensors
Additionally, the ZFR1812 Wireless Field Bus Router
can be used as a repeater in WRZ-7860-0 One-to-One
Wireless Room Temperature Sensing System. For
more information, refer to the WRZ Series One-to-One
Wireless Room Sensing System Technical Bulletin
(LIT-12011641).
Up to nine WRZ Series Sensors can be associated
with a single field controller. In multi-sensor
applications, the ZFR1812 Router passes all the
sensor data to an FAC, FEC, IOM, or VMA controller,
which can be configured to either average the sensors'
input or select the highest or lowest sensed condition
for control of the target zone.
ZFR1812 Wall Mount Wireless Field Bus Router Installation Instructions
A ZFR1812 Router is powered directly from the
connected field controller's 15 VDC output.
The ZFR812 Router is also included in the Repeater
Accessory Kits, MS-ZFRRPTK-H1 or MS-ZFRRPTK-
H2. These kits include a 24 VAC to 15 VDC converter
power supply for stand-alone operation. As a repeater,
the ZFR1812 extends the range and strengthens the
wireless mesh network.
Refer to the ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus
System Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011295) or the
ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System Quick
Reference Guide (LIT-12011630) for information on
commissioning and configuring a ZFR1800 Series
Wireless Field Bus System for operation.
