OVERVIEW The ZP6-ESP-PRO is a residential and light commercial forced air zone control systems that allows a single HVAC unit to have up to 6 separate zones. The system can be expanded to as many as 12 zones by adding 3-zone expansion panels. The panel can be used with single stage or multi-stage heat/cool equipment as well as heat pump and duel fuel systems having up to 4 stages of heating and 2 stages of cooling.

SYSTEM WIRING WARNING! 1. Turn power off to HVAC equipment and control panel during installation to prevent serious injury from electrical shock and/or damage to the system. 2. Use extreme care when making duct openings and handling sheet metal to avoid injury. 3.
SYSTEM WIRING DS/BK Terminals The HVAC SYSTEM terminals have a DS/BK output. The DS/BK terminal is used with a variable- speed fan. Connect the HVAC equipment DS, BK, ODD, or DHUM terminal to the DS/BK terminal on the ZP6-ESP-PRO panel. Based on the DS/BK selector switch settings, this terminal will be de- energized when the number of zones calling are less than or equal to the switch selection.
SYSTEM WIRING Return Air Sensor (Optional) Mount the return air sensor in the main return duct. Wire the sensor to the RA and RA terminals on the panel. The sensor is used to display return air temperature only. ZPA-DTS DUCT Outdoor Temperature Sensor (Optional) The outdoor temperature sensor is used for High and Low Balance Point control in heat pump and dual fuel applications but can also be used for outdoor temperature display only.
SYSTEM WIRING Fault Terminal The Fault Terminals are designed to send a 24 volt signal to each zone thermostat that has a fault input. This is an important feature on a heat pump system that can provide a visual alert to the user at the zone thermostat of a mechanical failure.
SYSTEM WIRING 3 HEAT / 2 COOL HEAT PUMP OR DUAL FUEL If thermostat has fault input 4 HEAT / 2 COOL HEAT PUMP OR DUAL FUEL If thermostat has fault input Zone Dampers The panel has dedicated terminals for each zone damper. Dampers have three-wire, oating point actuators rated at 2.5VA.
SPS Terminals The SPS terminals 2 and 3 wire to the ZPA-SPS Static Pressure sensor. The sensor should be installed on a at surface so that the diaphragm is in the vertical position. Use the 1/4” x 36” tubing provided and connect one end to the (P1+) high pressure tting on the sensor. The other end of the tubing should be connected to the plastic sensing probe mounted in the main discharge air plenum prior to any zone dampers or duct transitions.
ADDING 3-ZONE EXPANSION PANELS The ZP6-ESP-EP Expansion Panel is a 3-zone module. It is mounted in its own enclosure to match the ZP6-ESP-PRO master panel. The ZP6-ESP-EP connects to the ZP6-ESP-PRO panel via an included communications ribbon connector. Another ZP6-ESP-EP can be daisy chained together in the same enclosure to provide an additional 3 zones for a total of 12.
PANEL SETUP Switch Congurations The ZP6-ESP-PRO panel has a row of slide switches that are used to congure the panel for the specic equipment application. The switches also provide other control options. System Conguration Switch 1 selects the type of system. Heat Pump or Heat / Cool Switch 2 selects the type of Heat Pump.
PANEL SETUP DS/BK Control If the HVAC system has a variable-speed fan, the DS/BK control can be used to reduce the blower speed based on the number of zones calling. Each switch has a numerical value of 1, 2 and 3. Any switch or combination of switches selected maintains the low speed fan operation until that number is exceeded.
PANEL SETUP Setting Low Limit Press the SELECT button and the Low Limit setpoint will be displayed. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the Low Limit Setpoint. The setpoint range is from 30° F to 46° F. The recommended setting is 46°...
PANEL SETUP Setting Low Balance Point Low Balance Point only functions in heat pump and dual fuel conguration. It is designed to prevent the compressors from coming on and switching to auxiliary heat if the outdoor air temperature falls below the Low Balance Point setpoint. Press the SELECT button to display the Low BP.
PANEL SETUP Selecting ESP zones You can select which zones you want to apply the ESP function by toggling to the ESP Zones menu. Press the SELECT button to highlight the zone. ESP Zones ● Zone 1 ● Zone 2 ●...

PANEL LED DEFINITIONS AND FUNCTIONS Zone LEDs ZD1-ZD6 - ON when zone damper is open. Speed Up LED Speed Up - Blinks when panel is in speed up mode. 3 seconds = 1 minute in speed up mode. Pushing the Speed Up button manually turns Speed Up on and off.
OPTIONAL NIGHT STAT SETUP AND SCHEDULING OVERVIEW: The UT32-NS programmable touchscreen thermostat can be used for occupied and unoccupied scheduling of the ZP6-ESP-PRO panel. When wired and configured properly, the thermostat takes the place of a separate 7-day clock, night stat and override timer. The UT32-NS Programmable Fan option is used to trigger the ‘G’...
OPTIONAL NIGHT STAT SETUP AND SCHEDULING SETTING THE CLOCK AND DAY OF WEEK: It is important that the time of day and day of the week is set properly so that occupied and unoccupied programs are initiated correctly. 1. Touch and hold the Clock and the hour will flash. Tap the UP or DOWN arrow to select the correct hour.
OPTIONAL NIGHT STAT SETUP AND SCHEDULING 7. Tap Program again until the hour flashes and Night is displayed on the LCD. Use the UP or DOWN arrow to set the hour start time. Note: PM hours are indicated by PM on the LCD. 8.

SPECIAL ADDENDUM USING ESP ZONING PANELS WITH GAS FURNACES HAVING DIRECT SPARK IGNITION (DSI) DSI functions by creating a rapid series of high-voltage electric sparks, which means DSI controls generate electromagnetic interference (EMI) during their trial for ignition. This electronic noise can sometimes interfere with ESP zoning panels as well as other nearby electronic components and even with the ignition control itself.

New HVAC equipment using A2L refrigerants (R-32, R-454B, etc.) may incorporate a Refrigerant Leak Detection System (RDS) as an added safety measure. iO HVAC Controls ESP series zone panels can accept a signal from the RDS in order to drive open all dampers when a leak is detected.
