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 and sensors. This affects duct and damper selections.
This instruction covers the physical installation and start up of the
Infinity Damper Control. Use this instruction to guide the actual
installation process after all the air side decisions have been made.
One Damper Control is capable of handling up to four zones of
operation. When greater than four zones are required, a second
Damper Control Module is needed for zones 5 through 8 (8 zones
maximum).
1. Install the Infinity Zone Control (User Interface) and Remote
Room Sensors in non-condensing areas with ambient temperatures between 32° F. and 120° F. Install Dampers and Infinity
Damper Control in non-condensing areas with ambient temperatures between -4° F. to 158° F., (-20° to 70° C).
2. A TXV is required on the indoor coil when used with all
residential split system equipment.
3. Proper equipment selection and duct sizing are important in a
zoned system.
4. DO NOT USE a bypass damper with the Infinity Zoning
System. Addition of a bypass will cause improper operation.
Airflow management will be performed by the User Interface
algorithms. The User Interface will monitor the system and
will maintain proper airflow through the heating / cooling
equipment.
INTRODUCTION
The Infinity Zoning System allows air conditioning and heating
equipment to control temperatures and humidity in up to 8 distinct
spaces, or zones, within a building. Each zone has independent
temperature settings. The comfort temperature settings can change
automatically through the use of schedules. This allows the Infinity
System to change temperature settings in zones to reflect occupancy or usage. For example, the end user can condition bedrooms
in a home from 5:00 PM through 7:00 AM or the kitchen from
3:00 PM through 6:00 PM. The Infinity System uses motorized air
volume control dampers (also called zone dampers) to regulate
flow of conditioned air into zones. In this manner, the system can
selectively heat or cool certain portions of a building depending
upon space temperature requirements.
Each zone requires a motorized zone damper to control the air
supplied to it and a zone sensor to sense temperature in each zone.
There are three types of zone sensors available and may be used in
combination:
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

• Zoning User Interface (p/n SYSTXCCUIZ01) — Each installation has only 1 User Interface. This is the command center for
the entire system. It will typically be located in Zone 1 to sense
and control the temperature in this zone. If desired, a Remote
Room Sensor or a Smart Sensor may be used to sense the Zone
1 temperature. This can give the installer some flexibility in
locating the User Interface to another area.
• Remote Room Sensor (p/n SYSTXCCRRS01) — Any zone
may use a Remote Room Sensor (including Zone 1). This is a
temperature sensor only, having no additional user inputs. In
applications where zone temperature averaging may be desired,
this may be done using 4 Remote Room Sensors in a series /
parallel wiring configuration (See Fig. 11 for Remote Room
Sensor Averaging).
• Smart Sensor (p/n SYSTXCCSMS01) — Any zone may use a
Smart Sensor (including Zone 1). It provides a temperature
display and buttons to adjust the desired temperature in that
zone only. It also displays the outdoor temperature and indoor
humidity.
Be sure to select the desired sensor type for each zone. Zone
sensors other than the User Interface must be purchased separately.
Installation Instructions for these sensors are included with them.
INSTALLATION
Step 1—Check Equipment and Job Site
INSPECT EQUIPMENT — File claim with shipping company,
prior to installation, if shipment is damaged or incomplete.
Step 2—Component Location and Wiring Considerations
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or possible equipment damage.
Disconnect supply power before routing wire.
NOTE: All wiring must comply with national, local, and state
codes.
LOCATING INFINITY DAMPER CONTROL
— All system wiring is run back to the Infinity Damper Control.
Select a location near the Infinity furnace or fan coil where wiring
from the User Interface, each Remote Room Sensor or Smart
Sensor, each damper actuator, and the equipment itself can come
together easily.
The Infinity Damper Control is approved for indoor use only and
should never be installed with any of its components exposed to
the elements. The Infinity Damper Control (and the zone dampers)
may be installed in any area where the temperature remains
between -4° F. to 158° F. (-20° Cto70° C), and where there is no
condensation. The cover must be installed to prevent damage from
other sources. Do not locate where it will be accessible to children.
It may be mounted in either vertical or horizontal position.
Remember that wiring access is likely the most important consideration.
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution will result in equipment damage
or improper operation.
To prevent possible damage to the Infinity Damper Control,
do not mount on plenum, duct work, or flush against furnace.
LOCATING ZONING USER INTERFACE — The User Inter-
face is the command center for the Infinity Zone System. It should
be located where it is easily accessible and visible to home or
business owner. It is also normally the Zone 1 sensor and as such
needs to be located to properly measure the temperature in Zone 1.
If these two requirements conflict, a separate Remote Room
Sensor can be added for Zone 1.
When a Remote Room Sensor is connected to Zone 1 terminals(ZS1 and ZS1C) of the Infinity Damper Control, the system
automatically switches to using this sensor for Zone 1 and ignores
the sensor within the User Interface. This arrangement allows the
User Interface to be located at any convenient place within the
home or business. In this arrangement, only the Zone 1 Remote
Room Sensor must be located in Zone 1.
NOTE: The User Interface also controls humidity functions. If
the User Interface is not used to control Zone 1 temperature, it
must still be located in a suitable area where humidity control will
not be affected.
LOCATING SENSORS — For proper operation, each sensor
must accurately measure the temperature within its zone. For
accurate temperature measurement, the following guidelines
should be followed:
Sensor should be mounted:
• Approximately 5 ft. (1.5m) from floor.
• Close to the center of its zone, preferably on an inside wall.
• On a section of wall without pipes or ductwork.
Sensor should NOT be mounted:
• Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading
to the outside.
• Where it will be exposed to direct light and heat from a lamp,
sun, fireplace, or other temperature radiating object which may
cause a false reading.
• Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers.
• In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in
an alcove.
WIRING CONSIDERATIONS — Ordinary thermostat wire is
ideal when wiring the Infinity Zoning System (shielded cable is
not necessary). Use 22 AWG or larger for typical installations.
Lengths over 100 ft. should use 20 AWG or larger wire. Remote
Room Sensors require only 2 conductors, but it is recommended
that at least 4 conductors be run. This will allow a Smart Sensor to
replace the Remote Room Sensor with no wiring changes at a later
date. The User Interface requires 4 conductors, each damper
actuator requires 3 conductors. Cut off or fold back and tape any
unneeded wires. Plan the routing of wiring early to avoid possible
problems later. Remember, all wires converge at the Infinity
Damper Control, so its location is important.
NOTE: Wiring of the ABCD bus only requires a four wire
connection; however, it is good practice to run thermostat cable
having more than four wires in the event of a damaged or broken
wire during installation.
The following color code is recommended for each ABCD bus
connection:
A — Green = Data A
B — Yellow = Data B
C — White = 24 VAC (Com)
D — Red = 24VAC (Hot)
It is not mandatory that the above color code be used, but each bus
connection in the system MUST be wired consistently.

Step 3— Install Components
INSTALL INFINITY DAMPER CONTROL — The Infinity
Damper Control is designed so that wires can enter it from behind,
above, or below. Plan wire routing before mounting Damper
Control.
1. Remove cover to access mounting holes.
2. Mount back plate to wall using screws and wall anchors
provided.
3. Level back plate and tighten screws.
INSTALL ZONING USER INTERFACE — (see Infinity Zone
Control Installation Instructions for details).
NOTE: Improper wiring of the ABCD connector will cause the
Infinity Zoning System to operate improperly. Check to make sure
all wiring is correct before proceeding with installation or turning
on power.
INSTALL REMOTE ROOM SENSORS —
1. Separate the sensor cover and mounting back plate by squeezing the top and bottom of the cover together firmly by
grasping the raised top and bottom ridges. This will release the
cover. Mount to wall using provided screws and anchors.
2. Pull a 2-conductor wire through hole on right-hand side.
3. Recommended connection is BLACK to either terminal,
WHITE to remaining terminal (sensor terminals are not
marked for polarity because polarity is not important).
Stranded or common bell wire may be used. Lengths up to
1000 ft. will contribute no noticeable error.
4. Push any extra wire into wall and seal hole to prevent air
leaks. Align sensor cover with base plate then press firmly
until cover snaps into place.
INSTALL ZONING SMART SENSOR — See Infinity Zoning
Smart Sensor Installation Instructions for details.
Step 4— INSTALL ZONE DAMPERS
Proper selection and sizing of dampers is very important for proper
system operation. Be sure to consult the Damper Product Data
Digest for assistance in making these selections. Selection and
sizing information is not provided in this installation instruction.
Zone dampers are available in round, rectangular, and slip-in
design and may be installed in any position. Install dampers so that
actuator is visible for inspection and accessible in the event it
would need to be serviced. The black mark on the end of the
damper shaft represents position of damper blade. To wire damper,
locate terminals labeled: OPN (open); COM (common); CLS
(closed; and wire appropriately (see Fig. 1 for Damper 24 VAC
connection).
If duct system requires multiple dampers for a single zone, up to
5 dampers (maximum) may be wired in parallel. For all applications, including retrofit, it is recommended to use only current
dampers with direct-drive style actuators. DO NOT use older
damper with crank-arm style actuators.
If an actuator is removed from a damper for any reason, it must be
properly aligned when it is reinstalled. This can be done by
rotating the actuator and the blade to their closed positions and
then tightening the actuator (set screw) to the shaft. This assures
alignment at the closed position. (Pressing the quick blade release
button allows the actuator to be manually turned).
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution will result in euipment damage
or improper operation.
Condensation can damage the actuator. When dampers are
located in an unconditioned space, condensation is likely to
occur in cooling. To prevent condensation and losses, all
dampers and ductwork in unconditioned space must be
insulated or otherwise protected.
Whenever condensation might occur, it is recommended that a
plastic actuator cover (p/n, DAMPACTXXCOV) be used over the
actuator. These covers can help prevent condensation on actuators
by locking out ambient humidity. Insulation may be applied over
the cover to minimize heat transfer.
To install, place the cover over actuator and seal in place over the
surrounding insulation with duct tape on all four sides. Sealing
need not be perfect because there will be positive pressure inside
the cover. Do not mount the dampers with their actuators hanging
directly beneath the ductwork. It is best to mount the actuator
facing in either the three or nine o’clock position.
For specific duct types, follow instructions below:
NOTE: All zone dampers and ductwork must be properly sup-
ported according to local codes or SMACNA standards.
ROUND METAL DUCTWORK
1. Crimp end of branch duct.
2. Slip end of zone damper over end of ductwork. Use selftapping sheet metal screw to secure.
3. Properly seal joint using duct tape, mastic, or other approved
method. Do not allow mastic to come in contact with actuator.
4. If dampers are applied in an unconditioned space, insulate
damper using 1-1/2 inch to 2 inch insulation (See Fig. 2).
RECTANGULAR DUCTWORK
1. Make connections using S-lock and drives (See Fig. 3).
2. Properly seal joint using duct tape, mastic, or other approved
method. Do not allow mastic to come in contact with actuator.
3. If dampers are applied in an unconditioned space, insulate
damper using 1-1/2 inch to 2 inch insulation (See Fig. 4).
ROUND FLEXIBLE DUCTWORK
1. Slip one end of flexible ductwork over end of zone damper
(See Fig. 5).
2. Secure flexible duct to zone damper using SMACNA or other
approved method.
3. Properly seal joint using duct tape, mastic, or other approved
method. Do not allow mastic to come in contact with actuator.
4. If dampers are applied in an unconditioned space, insulate
damper using 1-1/2 inch to 2 inch insulation (See Fig. 6).
RECTANGULAR FIBROUS GLASS DUCTWORK
1. Insert one end of zone damper into end of fibrous glass
ductwork approximately 2 to 3 inches (See Fig. 7).
2. Use field supplied screws to secure duct board to zone
damper.
3. Properly seal joint using duct tape, mastic, or other approved
method. Do not allow mastic to come in contact with actuator.
4. If dampers are applied in an unconditioned space, insulate
damper using 1-1/2 inch to 2 inch insulation (See Fig. 8).
