    5.1 Parameters 5.1.1 Total Groups in the System For the purpose of group status display and spill zone calculation, the system needs to know the total number of groups to be installed. The factory default number is 8. IMPORTANT: This number must be equal to the total group number used in the system as planned in Pre-Installation process.

Electronic balancing feature of ZoneTouch 3 offers the flexibility of balancing the amount of airflow to each zone electronically.

  • Page 20: Grouping Zones

    5.3 Grouping Zones For ease of control operation, multiple zones can be grouped together. The grouped zones are treated as one group with its own name and turned on or off together. Individual balanced damper position is not affected by grouping, which means zone balancing can be conducted before or after grouping.

  • Page 21: Spill Or Bypass

    5.4 Spill or Bypass Spill or bypass mode is a safety feature of the ZoneTouch 3 system to prevent pressure from building up and causing duct damage. This usually occurs if someone has turned off all groups while the A/C unit is pumping air into the system leading to a pressure build-up (and potential of duct puncture, blow-offs or joints splitting).
  • Page 22 IMPORTANT: Choose at least one group as spill group unless there is a permanent open zone used as spill zone. Otherwise, there will be no spill group when all zones are closed and damage may be caused by high pressure building up inside ducts if air conditioner is running. The Bypass and Spill cannot be set at the same time.
