Issued April 2016
Application
Use the ZFR1812 Wireless Field Bus Router only to
provide an input to equipment under normal
operating conditions. Where failure or malfunction of
the ZFR1812 Router could lead to personal injury or
property damage to the controlled equipment or
other property, additional precautions must be
designed into the control system. Incorporate and
maintain other devices, such as supervisory or
alarm systems or safety or limit controls, intended to
warn of or protect against failure or malfunction of
the ZFR1812 Router.
IMPORTANT: The ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field
Bus System is not designed or intended for use in
mission-critical or life/safety applications.
A ZFR1812 Wireless Field Bus Router is used with
Advanced Application Field Equipment Controllers
(FACs), Field Equipment Controllers (FECs), Input/
Output Modules (IOMs), and Variable Air Volume
Modular Assembly (VMA) Series field controllers.
The ZFR1812 Router provides a wireless interface
between:
• a field controller and the supervisory controller (b
ans of a ZFR1810 Coordinator)
me
• a field controller and associated WRZ Seri
Wireless Room
Additionally, the ZFR1812 Wireless Field Bus Router
can be used as a repeater in WRZ-7860-0 One-to-One
Wireless Room Temperature Sensing System. For
more information, refer to the WRZ Series One-to-One
Wireless Room Sensing System Technical Bulletin
(LIT-12011641).
Up to nine WRZ Series Sensors can be associated
with a single field controller. In multi-sensor
applications, the ZFR1812 Router passes all the
sensor data to an FAC, FEC, IOM, or VMA controller,
which can be configured to either average the sensors’
input or select the highest or lowest sensed condition
for control of the target zone.

Physical Features and Dimensions, mm (in.)
Follow these guidelines when installing a
ZFR1812 Router:
• Transport the ZFR1812 Router in the original
container to minimize vibration and shock damage.
• Do not drop the ZFR1812 Router or subject it to
physical shock.
Materials and Special Tools Needed
• A 1.5 mm (1/16 in.) Allen wrench or a Johnson
Controls® T- 4000-119 Allen-He ad Adjustment Tool
is required for tightening or loosening the security
screw
Dimensions
See Figure 1 for physical features and dimensions of
the ZFR1812 Router.
The ZFR1812 can be mounted directly to drywall with
drywall anchors. Both the standalone and repeater kit
versions of the ZFR1812 include a 10 foot long RJ12
cable hardwired to the device. The Repeater Kit
versions (the ZFRRPTK-H1 and ZFRRPTK-H2)
provide additional flexibility for mounting such as a
separate power supply. ZFR1812s can be flush
mounted to a wall or ceiling, or mounted on a 4x4 box
using a standard mudplate. When mounting the
ZFR1812 Router to an enclosure, mount it to the top,
bottom, or side of the enclosure. For floor mount
unitary equipment, mounting on top where books or
other items may be placed is not ideal. See Location
Considerations.
Mounting Directly to Drywall with Drywall Anchors
- ZFR1812
1. Separate the plastic base and circuit board
assembly (cover). Do not remove the security
screw from the cover. See Figure 2.
IMPORTANT: The label showing the unit MAC
address is on the plastic base of the unit. Be sure to
keep the plastic base and circuit board assemblies
together so the correct MAC address is shown.
Mounting
Note: These instructions are for mounting new
ZFR1812s rather than retrofitting factory-mounted
routers.
2. Determine where to secure the plastic base to the
surface using the mounting holes and supp lie d
screws. A template (Figure 11) is provided at the
end of this document to help you place the
mounting holes.
3. Set the DIP switches. (See
Setup and Adjustments
4. Reattach the circuit board assembly in the plastic
base being careful not to pinch the a t tached RJ-12
cable.
5. Tighten the security screw to prevent tampering
using a 1.5 mm (1/16 in.) Allen wrench or a
Johnson Controls® T-4000-119 Allen-Head
Adjustment Tool. Use caution when tightening the
screw to avoid stripping the plastic threads in the
ZFR1812.
Mounting the ZFRRPTK-H1
The ZFRRPTK-H1 is intended for flush wall mount or
ceiling mount applications. In addition to the ZFR1812,
it includes a power supply, a 10 ft RJ-12 cable for

A template (Figure 1 1) is provided at the end of
this document to help you place the mounting
holes.
b. For ceiling mount applications, mount the
ZFR1812 to the grid between the tiles. Ther e
are a number of ceiling mounting clips
available from third parties which can be used.
Make sure to match the clip you purchase to
the grid in the location where you are doing the
installation. Ceiling grid dimensions and offsets
vary, so using an incorrectly sized clip may
prevent mounting the ZFR1812 flush for a
professional appearance. A hole is provided in
the base of the assembly for this purpose
(Figure 3).
IMPORTANT: If you are using a ceiling mounting clip
you must make sure that no part of the clip makes
contact with the circuit board assembly when installed.
3. Assemble the external power and adapters as
necessary (Figure 4).
a. The 24 VAC to 15 VDC power supply (1) uses
screw terminals to attach to a 24 volt source.
b. The adapter connects the 15 VDC output of the
power supply to an RJ12 adapter (2). Plug this
adapter directly to the cable coming from the
ZFR1812 through a connector (3 ).
c. This connector (3) is then used to connect to
the 10 ft RJ-12 cable which is attached to the
ZFR.
Note: Any inline adapter used to extend the
connection of the ZFR1812 to a controller or po wer
must be a straight through adapter instead of

The preferred orientation for the ZFR1812 Router is in
Figure 6: ZFR1812 Mounted in Wall Plate
a horizontal orientation with the green LED at the top. If
you feel that you are not able to get proper signal
strength, you can rotate the device 90 degrees on its
plastic wall plate. See Figure 6.
Location Considerations
Follow these guidelines when locating a ZFR1812
Router within a ZFR1800 Series System.
• Locate the ZFR1812 Router so that it is easily
accessible.
• For best signal transmission, mount the ZFR1812
Router in an unobstructed location below (and
clear of) any pipes, duct work, or other metal
obstructions by at least 50 mm (2 in.).
• Due to the nature of the radio frequency waves, a
wireless device may have significantly different
signal strengths if its position changes relative to
another wireless device or if its environment
changes.
• Locate the ZFR1812 Router in line-of-sight with as
many ZFR1812 Routers and WRZ Sensors as
possible.
• Do not mount the ZFR1812 Router in recessed
areas, metal enclosures, or shelving units.
Note: For detaile d information on location guidelines
for a ZFR1800 Series system, and for estimating the
number of ZFR1812 Routers needed as repeaters for
extending wireless transmission range, refer to the
ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System Technical
Bulletin (LIT-12011295).
Wireless Signal Transmission Considerations
Line-of-sight transmission ranges between a
ZFR1810 Coordinator, ZFR1812 Router, and a
WRZ Sensor can be less than the maximum distances
shown in Table 1. The effective transmission range for
indoor applications varies because of wireless signal
absorption and reflection due to metal obstructions,
walls (or floors), and furniture found in typical building
interiors.

Wiring Considerations and Guidelines
IMPORTANT: Do not connect supply power to the
ZFR1812 Router before finishing wiring and
checking all wiring connections. Short circuits or
improperly connected wires may result in permanent
damage to the Router.
IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make
all wiring in accordance with local, national, and
regional regulations. The ZFR1812 Router is a
low-voltage (less than 30 VAC) device. Do not
exceed the ZFR1812 Router’s electrical ratings.
IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge
to the ZFR1812 Router . Static electric discharge can
damage the ZFR1812 Router and void any
warranties.
IMPORT ANT: Do not connect the ZFR1812 Router
to the power supply before setting the PAN OFFSET
switches.
Wiring with an FEC or VMA16 Series Field Controller
Connect the ZFR1812 Router to the field controller as
shown in Table 2. This connection provides both power
and communication to the ZFR1812 Router.
Note: When using a field controller in a wireless field
bus network, ensure that the DIP switch for Address
128 is set to the ON position.

For example, if the DIP switches labeled 1, 4, and 8
are set to ON, the PAN Offset value is 13
(1 + 4 + 8 = 13).
When selecting a PAN Offset value for a wireless
system:
• Use a unique PAN Offset value for each wireless
mesh network at a job site.
• Use the same PAN Offset value for each wireless
device in a wireless mesh network—the
ZFR1810 Coordinator and each associated
ZFR1812 Router and WRZ Sensor.
• If, after setting the PAN Offset value you find that
you are unable to communicate with the desired
network, it may help to toggle the DIP switches to
ensure a good connection. Power down the
ZFR1812 and toggle the switches (all off, then all
on) and then set the switches to the desired PAN.
Restore power to the ZFR1812 and see that it joins
the correct network.
• If the ZFR1812 misread the dip switches, it might
become the child of another network and use up an
available child slot in a device you did not expect. If
this situation occurred, a reform on the incorrect
network should clear up the now unusable child
address.
Setup and Adjustments
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the PAN OFFSET
switches are set to the same value for each
ZFR1810 Coordinator, ZFR1812 Router, and
WRZ Sensor in a mesh network.
IMPORT ANT: Do not connect the ZFR1812 Router
to the power supply before setting the PAN OFFSET
switches.
IMPORTANT: On the MS/TP Address switch block
of the associated FEC/IOM/VMA16 Field Controller,
set switch 128 to ON for use with a ZFR1812
Router.
Set the P AN Offset value of the ZFR1812 Router using
the DIP switches (located on the back of the cover) to
configure the ZFR1812 Router to communicate on the
wireless mesh network. See Figure 1 and Figure 10.
Note: On some date code labels, the switch position
numbers on the bottom of the DIP switch are reversed.
In either case, the switch positions are always read
right to left.

Wireless transmissions between ZFR1810
Coordinators and ZFR1812 Routers occur as needed.
Wireless transmissions between ZFR1812 Routers
and WRZ Sensors occur approximately every 60
seconds or when the occupancy button on the WRZ
Sensor is pressed. Refer to the WRZ Series Wireless
Room Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions
(Part No. 24-10332-2) for more information.
Approximately once every 10 seconds, the Signal
Strength LED flashes to indicate the strength of the
signal received from neighboring devices. See Table 3.
Note: The Signal Strength LEDs on all the ZFR1812
routers in a network extinguish after approximately
2 hours of normal operation, making the ZFR1812 less
distracting when installed in an open area. To re-enable
the ZFR1812 LEDs for troubleshooting purposes,
perform a scan using the ZFR Checkout Tool (ZCT).
Alternatively, push the Network Optimize/Reform Push
Button on the ZFR1810 coordinator for 0 to 5 seconds.
Note that if you press this button more than 5 seconds,
a Network Optimize or Reform is initiated.
Refer to the ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus
System Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011295) for more
information on determining the signal strength between
ZFR1800 Series devices in your application.
Troubleshooting
Use the Status LED (see Figure 1) along with the
information in Table 3 to troubleshoot the ZFR1812
Router.
Wireless Signal Strength
A wireless signal strength indication LED displays the
reception strength of the transmissions between the
ZFR1810 Coordinators, ZFR1812 Routers, and the

another PAN
• when the Channel Mask in the ZFR1810 is changed from CCT
Network pings provide a means of physically locating connected devices. There are two
methods with different use cases:
1) Use ZFR Checkout T ool (ZCT) to ping an address. The LED on the connected ZFR1812
blinks, indicating the device mapped to that specific MS/TP address.
2) Press the Occupancy push button on a WRZ Network Sensor. The ZFR1812 connected
to the paired device blinks. This blinking response can be used to validate switch settings
on the sensor during installation.
