I f any problems ar ise, please contac t Touch-Plate at 260.426.1 565 for assistance. Pre c a u t i o n s The ZNZ-ZD hardware is designed to be in environments that have a temperature range of 0-60°C (non- condensing atmosphere). I nstalling in an environment outside of these parameters will shor ten the life span of the hardware. Touch-Plate recommends the use of 18 to 22 AWG wire for low voltage wir ing of contac t closure produc ts and 18 AWG wire for all 24V power connec tions. Al l 120VAC wir ing must use wire as specified by National Elec tr ic Code for load size and wire length.

R emove the Diecut from the ZNZ-ZD. 2. Look for the LED indicator to be blink ing. a. b. c. For the indicator to be blink ing, power has to be cor rec tly brought to the system. I f the LED indicator is not blink ing, confir m power connec tions and then contac t the fac tor y for assistance. I f the LED indicator is blink ing, move on to the nex t step. 3. Ver ify that the line voltage has been fed to all the necessar y relays. 4. Ver ify that each light fix ture is connec ted to the ‘Switched Leg’. 5. U tilize Dip Switch #7. S ee page 14 for instruc tions. 6. Ver ify that 120 VAC has been connec ted to the transfor mer 7. Take a shor t piece of thin wire (both ends need to be str ipped) and hold one end to the conduc tive metal of the ‘Switch Common’. 8. Take the other end of the shor t wire and tap it to the conduc tive metal of each of the Dimmer ter minals, on the ZNZ-ZD, one at a time. a. Each touch should energize the dimmer and change its state. The lights in the respec tive rooms should go ON and OFF when the ter minal is touched. 9. I f the lights do not respond, use a meter on the line voltage dimmer outputs to see if the voltage switches from 0 to 120 VAC. 10.

S cenes allow for a single button to control multiple dimmers. For example: I n most bathrooms there are lights above the sink and above the shower. I f both lights are desired to be tur ned on at the same time with the push of a single button, a S cene makes this possible. 2. What are the ‘Option’ Func tions? a. Option Func tions are to be used when a Time -Keeper is connec ted to the ZNZ-ZD. 3. What is the ‘DMX Address’? a. b. The DMX Address is a number in a line of specific addresses. This has to be done because ever ything has a unique address and has to be programmed to do so. 4. What are the wattages on the dimmer modules? a. b. The Standard dimmer module is 300W per channel. There is an option available that is 600W per channel. 5. What are the ‘ Ter minations’? a. These are DMX line ter minations. This is only used if a DMX controller is connec ted to the ZNZ-ZD 6. How do you save the programming? a. The programming is saved once the S cene, Dimmer, Ac tion, Level, or R ate is entered and the button press is released.
