NOTE: Read the entire instruction manual before starting the
installation.
1. Install in non-condensing areas with ambients between 32°F
and 158°F.
2. A TXV is required on the indoor coil when used with all
residential split system equipment.
3. A separate transformer is not needed to power the 3-Zone
system. Up to five dampers may be used in each zone by
electrically connecting them in parallel.
4. Load calculations must be performed for each zone’s peak
demand. Size each zone duct for at least its peak demand plus
25%. Size equipment for the building block load, not the sum
of zone peak demands. It is important that the equipment not
be oversized.
5. When only two zone operation is needed, any two of the three
zone connections may be used. There is no inherent priority
dependent on zone number.

or use can cause fire, electrical shock, or other conditions which
may cause personal injury or property damage. Consult a qualified
installer, service agency or your distributor or branch for informa-
tion or assistance. The qualified installer or agency must use
factory-authorized kits or accessories when modifying this prod-
uct. Refer to the individual instructions packaged with the kits or
accessories when installing.
INTRODUCTION
The Carrier 3-Zone system allows the air conditioning and heating
equipment to control temperatures in 3 distinct spaces or zones
within a building. Each zone has independent temperature settings
controlled by a conventional thermostat.
Follow all safety codes and wear safety glasses. Have fire
extinguisher available. Read these instructions thoroughly and
follow all warnings or cautions attached to the unit. Consult local
and state building codes and Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning
National Association (SMACNA) for special installation require-
ments.
There are two distinct controllers:
•
ZONECC3ZAC01 - Single Stage Heat / Single Stage Cool
using conventional single stage thermostats.
•
ZONECC3ZHP01 - Three Stage Heat / Two Stage Cool
compatible for HP and multi-stage application thermostats and
equipment.
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol
.
Each system controller is comprised of a three-zone controller and
a duct temperature sensor.
When you see this symbol on the unit or in instructions and
manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
NOTE: Thermostats are purchased separately.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAU-
TION. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol. DAN-
GER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe
personal injury or death. WARNING signifies hazards which
could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to
identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal
injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight
suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability,
or operation.
The comfort temperature settings can change automatically
through the use of schedules if programmable thermostats are
selected. This allows the Carrier 3-Zone to change the temperature
settings in zones to reflect occupancy or usage. The Carrier 3-Zone
system uses motorized air volume control dampers (also called
zone dampers) to regulate the flow of conditioned air into the
zones.
INSTALLATION
Step 1—Check Equipment and Job Site
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Before the actual installation of a zoning system can begin,
decisions need to be made to determine the number and location of
zones. This affects duct and damper selections.
INSPECT EQUIPMENT — File claim with shipping company,
prior to installation, if shipment is damaged or incomplete.
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

SYSTEM WIRING
Wiring the system is best done in four steps. Thermostats,
Equipment, Dampers, and Remainder. The descriptions below and
Table 1 will help you choose the correct wiring diagram for your
system. Table 1 also shows the proper setting of dipswitches 9 and
10 for each diagram. Based on the equipment, 3-zone control, and
thermostat type, select the appropriate wiring diagram. Terminal
designations on all the thermostats are those of Carrier thermostats.
Other brands may vary somewhat. Wiring diagrams and 3-Zone
Control board layouts are located at the end of this Installation
Instruction.

Fig. 11 - Shows that the 3-Zone HP/2S Control may be used in 1
stage cooling and 1 or 2 stage heating applications. For 2 stage
heating, the stat may be a 2 stage heat AC stat or a HP stat
converted to AC. (Carrier HP stats can be field converted to 2 stage
heat AC stats.)
Fig. 12 - Shows the conventional HP system, using a HP stat. Only
single stage auxiliary heat is supported for heat pump systems.
Using the HP stat allows control of emergency heat directly from
the stat.
Fig. 13 - Is also a HP system, but uses an AC stat with 2 stage
heating instead of a HP stat. (Carrier HP stats can be field
converted to 2 stage heat AC stats.) Here, emergency heat can only
be selected by a switch on the 3-Zone Control.
For proper installation, refer to Installation Instructions packaged
with barometric bypass.
Step 6—Install Leaving Air Temperature (LAT) Sensor
NOTE: The supplied LAT sensor must be installed for normal
operation. Heat pump systems may use an optional HPT (heat
pump temperature) sensor for added protection. These sensors
protect the equipment when leaving air temperatures approach
excessive levels.
Locate LAT sensor in main supply trunk after heating and cooling
coil and before bypass damper and first branch. The LAT sensor is
radiant shielded to prevent heat from affecting correct air tempera-
ture.
1. Drill a 1/4-in. hole at location in supply trunk where sensor
will be installed.
Fig. 14 - Is a 2 speed AC system and may have 1 or 2 stages of
heat. An HP/2S Control and a 2S stat set for AC operation must be
used.
2. Insert sensor in hole and use as a template to mark the 2
mounting holes.
Fig. 15 - Is for a 2 speed HP. It requires an HP/2S Control and a
2S stat set for HP operation. Only single stage auxiliary heat is
supported for heat pump systems.
3. Drill two 1/16-in. holes to accept No. 6 screws through
pre-drilled holes in duct temperature sensor back plate.
4. Use 2 No. 6 sheet metal screws to mount duct temperature
sensor to unit.
Step 1—Wire Thermostats
All zone thermostats are wired identically, so only the Zone 1
thermostat is shown on the wiring diagrams. For physical location
of connections on 3-Zone Control refer to Fig. 8 (AC Control) or
9 (HP Control).
5. Connect sensor to 2-conductor wire using provided wire nuts.
(See Fig. 9, 10, or 11 for connection to Carrier 3-Zone
System.)
Step 7—Install Heat Pump Temperature (HPT) Sensor
Battery or power stealing thermostats may not require the C
connection. Refer to thermostat Installation Instructions. Be care-
ful not to cross zone numbers.
The optional HPT sensor is recommended in all heat pump/fan coil
installations. If an optional HPT sensor is not used, the 10K ohm
resistor attached to the two HPT terminals on the board must be
left in place. The HPT sensor measures the temperature of the air
leaving the indoor coil. The sensor is to be installed downstream of
the indoor coil but before the electric heaters. It can be installed
Step 2—Wire Equipment
Again, from the selected Fig. 10 through 13, make each connection
as shown at the indoor and outdoor units and the 3-zone Control.

Connect the equipment R to both Rz and either Rh or Rc. A jumper
will be needed. Rc and Rh are internally connected but may be
separated by breaking a twist-off (see step 4 below).
Step 4—Wire Remainder
Connect the LAT sensor to the LAT and LATC terminals. Polarity
does not matter. If used, connect the HPT sensor to the HPT and
HPTC terminals. If the HPT sensor is not used, you must leave the
10K ohm resistor connected in its place.
Step 3—Wire Dampers
Each damper has three connections: Close, Open, and Common.
Find the connection points along the lower left side of the 3-Zone
Control. Suggested colors are Close = red; Open = green; Common
= white. Field label and make the connections at the dampers and
at the 3-Zone Control. Be careful not to cross zone numbers.
If the cooling and heating systems have separate transformers,
twist off the Rc/Rh jumper using a pair of long nosed pliers. Then
connect the R of the cooling transformer to Rc, the R of the heating
transformer to Rh and the common of both transformers to C.
Connect a jumper wire between Rz and Rc. Rc powers G, Y, and
O outputs. Rh powers W outputs.

UNDERSTANDING SYSTEM OPERATION
(READ BEFORE STARTING SYSTEM)
Mode and Damper Positions
Timer Override
A momentary switch is located near the bottom of the control
circuit board. Pressing it momentarily overrides all of the system
timers, allowing the control to immediately jump to the highest
calling stage.
The thermostats determine the system heating or cooling mode.
The first call in any zone sets the mode to satisfy that call. It will
remain in that mode until all calls in that mode are satisfied and the
equipment has been off for the time set by the auto changeover
time dipswitches. (See Timers section.)
Temperature Limits and Sensors
Both the AC and HP controls have a LAT (leaving air temperature)
sensor which is to be placed in the downstream air path of the
heating /cooling equipment. It is used in both heating and cooling
to limit LAT to a safe value. It must be connected. The system will
not operate without it. Its setting is fixed for cooling and is
adjustable in four settings for heating. Selection of best setting is
discussed under LAT Limit Selection.
In normal heating or cooling, the damper of any zone with a call
in the current mode will be open and all other zones will be closed.
When there is no call, any zone with its fan set to ON will be open,
and any zone with its fan set to AUTO will be closed. If any zone
fan is set to ON, the blower will be energized.
If all fan settings are AUTO, the dampers will remain in their last
position before the equipment turned off and the blower will be
off. (This normally means one damper open and all others closed.)
The HP control also has an optional HPT Sensor (heat pump
temperature) which is to be placed downstream of the coil but
ahead of the electric heater. This sensor measures the temperature
of the air leaving the coil during HP heating. It is not included with
the control, but may be ordered separately as part number
TSATXXSEN01-B. A 10K ohm resistor is factory installed in its
place when the actual sensor is not used. In the HP control only,
dipswitch 11 allows the installer to temporarily disable both the
LAT and the HPT sensors. Disabling of these sensors is only to be
done on a temporary basis.
When dampers are to move, all opening is done first, followed by
all closing.
Stages
In multi-stage systems, the equipment stage is set by the greatest
thermostat call, but may be delayed by the control’s cycle and
staging timers. (See timers explanation below.) The AC Control
supports only single stage heat and cool. The HP control supports
two stage cooling, two stage furnace heating, and three stage HP
heating (lo HP, hi HP, hi HP + aux heat.)
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Emergency Heat
Failure to follow this caution may result in unit damage.
Operating equipment with sensors disabled can cause perma-
nent damage to HVAC equipment.
Emergency heat (aux heat without compressor heat) can be
selected for a HP system by either of two ways: First, by selecting
Eheat using the Eheat override switch on the HP Control, or
second, selection of Eheat on each of the thermostats, provided
they have the Eheat function. When either of these Eheat selections
is made, a heating demand provides a W signal without a Y signal
to the equipment.
Bypass
The purpose of a bypass is to limit noise in the duct system when
the dampers are excessively restricting it. When a direct bypass
(outlet air fed back directly into the return) is used, bypassing
decreases entering air temperature in cooling and increases it in
heating. Excessive bypassing will lead to limit trips, either through
the LAT /HPT sensors or the equipment internal limits.
NOTE: The second Eheat method requires HP thermostats and
that they all must be set to Eheat.
Indicator LEDs
There are 7 indicator LEDs on the AC Control and an additional 3
on the HP/2S Control. Their locations are shown on Fig. 8 and 9.
Setting the Bypass
Setting the bypass is a balance between too much noise (bypass
trip pressure set too high) and excessive bypassing which will
cause limit trips, diminishing performance. As a general rule, the
bypass should remain closed as much as possible. It should never
open when all the dampers are open and only open as much as
needed to bring noise to an acceptable level when only one damper
is open. (See System Setup for details.)
Each damper has its own green LED which is ON when the
damper opens due to a calling condition or partially open due to an
LAT or HPT limit condition.
Each equipment output has its own LED which is on when that
output is energized. Y and O outputs are yellow, W outputs are red
and the G output is green.
In addition, there is a status LED whose operation is described
LAT Limit Selection
under the section Error Codes.
Cycling on internal equipment limits is to be avoided because it
overstresses and can shorten the life of the equipment. Therefore,
the LAT limit setting should be selected to trip below the
equipment limit. See System Setup for details on how to choose
one of four available LAT limits.
Timers
To control excessive equipment cycling or rapid staging up, the
control has two timers. The cycle timer prevents the same stage
from turning on within 10 minutes of the last time it turned on.
This allows a stage to turn on for as short or as long as the
thermostats request, but will not allow more than six cycles per
hour.
Limit Levels and Actions
The response of the system to the LAT/HPT sensors are shown in
Table 2. Cooling and HP limits are not adjustable. Looking at
Table 2, there are eight limit level index numbers, 0 through 7.
These represent the closeness of the actual LAT/HPT temperatures
to the final shutdown limit. 0 represents no limit challenge while
7 indicates a final shutdown of the equipment. Note that progres-
sive actions are taken by the control as the LAT/HPT limit is
approached. Each action progressively reduces the limit challenge
by increasing airflow. Normally, the system will stabilize at limit
level 1 or 2 because opening all closed dampers 2 or 4 positions
(out of 15) will reduce LAT to a level below its limit.
The staging timer prevents a higher stage from turning on until the
next stage below it has been on for 15 minutes. This minimizes use
of electric heat with heat HP systems.
There is also a timegaurd timer which will not allow the compres-
sor to be turned on until it has been off for five minutes.
A changeover timer, which can be set from 0 to 30 minutes, limits
the control’s ability to switch between heating and cooling. The
opposite mode is prevented from coming on until the first mode
has been satisfied for the selected time.

Using Limit Level Indicator
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 ″zoning″
selection, 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.
Dipswitch 6 - Selects G ON or OFF with W. Selecting ON causes
G to be energized whenever W is energized. Selecting OFF does
7
not bring on G with W. Default is OFF.
Automatic Checkout
Dipswitch 7 and 8 - Sets LAT limit temperature. See LAT Limit
Selection for proper setting. Default is OFF = 145° limit.
The following dipswitches are on the HP/2S control only:
Dipswitch 9 - Informs the control whether it is connected to a heat
pump or an air conditioner. OFF selects HP. ON selects AC.
Default is OFF (HP).
Dipswitch 10 - Informs the control of the type of thermostat being
used. OFF selects HP thermostat. ON selects AC thermostat. A HP
thermostat may not be selected if the system selection is AC. A
2-stage heat AC thermostat or a HP thermostat may be used with
a single stage HP. Default is OFF.
An automatic checkout procedure is provided which will exercise
dampers, heating, and cooling in that order. It is described under
the Understanding System Operation section in Installer Test
Mode. This may be used or the system may be checked out
manually by creating thermostat calls. When using thermostats,
remember that only the calling zoning dampers will be open. This
provides the means to select which dampers are open for any
heating or cooling call. It is advisable that the initial checkout be
made with all dampers open before the bypass is set. This can be
done by temporarily setting Switch 5 to ON (disable zoning) and
controlling the equipment from the Zone 1 thermostat. When the
equipment is operating satisfactorily, return Switch 5 to OFF and
proceed to the next section.
Dipswitch 11 - Disables LAT and HPT safeties when ON. ON is
intended only for emergencies. When ON is selected, there is no
over/under temperature protection for the equipment. Default is
OFF.
Bypass Adjustment
The bypass should be set to the highest possible pressure setting
consistent with an acceptable air noise level. To set, operate the
system with a call from the smallest zone at its highest airflow
(highest may be either heating or cooling). This condition forces
the largest amount of air through the smallest duct, creating the
highest static pressure at the bypass. Adjust the bypass pressure
setting so that the bypass stays closed. Then check to determine if
the level of noise and ″blow″ in that zone is acceptable. If it is
unacceptable, reduce the bypass pressure setting (see bypass
instructions for how to adjust) until it just begins to crack open.
Check again, continuing the process until an acceptable noise and
″blow″ level is reached.
If, under this condition, the LAT approaches its limit, the system
will open the other closed dampers until the LAT reaches an
acceptable level. This operation is acceptable. The system will
automatically open dampers enough to keep the LAT at a safe
value, and will do it only when the zone demands require it. You
may observe the limit level on the status LED (if it is above zero).
If it stabilizes at a value of higher than 2, an overly small duct
system is indicated and it would be desirable to raise the bypass
pressure setting, if possible.
Dipswitch 12 - Informs the control whether the reversing valve is
energized in cooling (O function) or heating (B function). ON
selects B function. OFF selects O function. Default is OFF.
LAT Limit Selection
To accommodate varying heat rises in furnaces and fan coils, the
LAT limit adjustment has four selections: 130, 145, 160 and 175
degrees. In addition to these, the HPT limit is fixed at 115 degrees
and the cooling limit (also sensed by LAT sensor) is 40 degrees.
To select the proper limit, check or calculate the rated maximum
rise of the equipment. Add 75 degrees to this value. Pick the
closest LAT limit choice below this value and use dipswitches 7
and 8 to enter this value using:

Error Codes
The status LED indicates normal operation, problems, and
LAT/HPT limit status according to a two digit code. The first digit
flashes its number, followed by a 2 second pause, followed by the
second digit, followed by a 4 second pause. The cycle the repeats.
The codes are:
Take a minute to study the LAT Limit table. Note that the limits
are the final shutdown temperatures, but actions begin earlier.
First, at levels 1 and 2, closed dampers begin to open gradually,
followed at level 3 by staging down of multi stage equipment, if it
exists. Under most limit challenges, the system will stabilize
between 1 and 3 due to opening of closed dampers.
