Thermostat Wiring
Conventional Equipment
Conventional (RWYG) thermostats can be used to control
conventional, multi-stage and heat pump equipment. When
single-stage thermostats are used, stages are engaged
through the on-board 5 - 60 minute timer. If the equipment is a
heat pump, the EMM-3U panel controls the reversing valve. If
the thermostat has a common terminal, it is wired to C on the
panel, see Fig. 3. Multi-stage conventional (non-heat pump)
thermostats are wired with the second stage of heat and cool
on the thermostat to W2 and Y2 on the panel. Leave the O/B
thermostat jumper on the EMM-3U disconnected.
The PC8900 can be used as a zone thermostat. See Fig. 4 for
hookup. The PC8900 with the W8900A or C controls up to 2
heat and 2 cool stages of conventional equipment. The
PC8900 with the W8900A also controls heat pump
equipment.
Connect a jumper on the W8900 from Rc to Rh as shown.
Wire terminals R and C to a transformer. Alternately, if the
zone control system current draw is within specifications, the
R and C on the W8900 could be connected to R and C on the
EMM-3U. The PC8900/W8900 draws 5 VA.
Heat Pump Equipment
Select a heat pump thermostat from Table 1. If the thermostat
selected has a separate Y1 and W1 wire, connect as shown in
Fig. 5, leaving the zone O/B thermostat type jumper on the
EMM-3U disconnected
If the PC8900/W8900A is used, wire as shown in Fig. 4. This
hookup engages second stage heat based on thermostat
demand, but the Em Heat switch on the panel must be used to
switch the panel to emergency heat.
WIRING
NOTE: The thermostat Em Heat switch does not switch the
panel to emergency heat.
If the thermostat selected from Table 1 has a single Y terminal
CAUTION
Voltage Hazard.
Can cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
Disconnect power before continuing installation.
Wiring must comply with applicable codes, ordinances and
regulations.
1. Connect thermostats as shown inFig. 3-7.
2. Connect dampers as shown in Fig. 8-12.
3. Connect C7735A1000 Discharge Air Temperature Sen-
sor (DATS) to the DATS terminals. The wires are not
polarized; see Fig. 13.
4. Connect the HVAC equipment to the EQUIP terminals
on the panel; see Fig. 13-18.
for first stage heat and cool, wire as shown in Fig. 6 and 7.
Wire either O or B (not both) from the thermostat to the O/B
terminal on the EMM-3U. Locate the O/B thermostat jumper
on the EMM-3U near each zone thermostat wiring terminal.
Connect the jumper if O is used or leave the jumper
disconnected if B is used. Connect second stage, auxiliary
heat, to W2.
Conventional single stage thermostats can be used to control
a heat pump if wired as shown in Fig. 3. In this case, the panel
operates the reversing valve, the second stage is brought on
by the panel stage timer, and emergency heat is activated by
the EM heat switch on the panel. Leave the O/B thermostat
type jumper disconnected when using conventional
thermostats.
5. Connect a 40 VA, 24 Vac transformer to R (hot) and C
(common). This must be a dedicated transformer. See
Fig. 13.

Hot Water Heat Systems
Hydronic Heat
Hydronic heat systems using zone valves or circulator relays
for heating and dampers for cooling can be controlled by the
panel. In this hookup, one thermostat is used per zone to
control both heating and cooling. Use thermostats with
separate Rc and Rh terminals to isolate the heating and
cooling circuits. Connect the thermostat Rh and W to the zone
valve and the Rc, Y and G to the zone control panel. Wire the
thermostats and air conditioning equipment the same as for
conventional equipment; see Fig. 3 and 16.
Hydro Heat
Hydro heat systems using a boiler and hot water coil can be
used with this zone control panel. Wire the zone valve or
circulator relay to equipment terminals Rh and W. The Rc and
Rh jumpers located above the equipment terminals must be
removed if a separate transformer powers the heating and
cooling circuits. Wire the cooling equipment, thermostats, and
dampers the same as for conventional equipment; see Figure
19. Set DIP switch 7 to off if it is necessary for the fan to be
energized on a call for heat. Alternatively, an Aquastat can be
used to engage the blower based on water temperature.
Heat Pump Equipment
See Fig. 17 and 18 for heat pump equipment wiring. Refer to
the manufacturer instructions for additional wiring details and
substitute the EMM-3U equipment terminals for the
thermostat terminals shown.
If the same heat source is used for auxiliary heat and
emergency heat:
• Connect the auxiliary heat to W2.
• Wire a jumper from W2 to E.
• Set DIP switch 12 to Off.
If auxiliary heat is separate from emergency heat:
• Connect the auxiliary heat to W2.
• Connect the emergency heat to E.
• Leave DIP switch 12 set to On.
Connect the changeover relay to the O or B equipment
terminal (O is energized when the panel is in the cool mode, B
is energized when the panel is in the heat mode).

point to call for heat.
1168-0237-2
EMM-3U UNIVERSAL ELECTRONIC MINIZONE™ PANEL
Sequence of Operation
• When there is no call for heat, cool, or fan, the EMM-3U is
in the Idle mode. No system LEDs are illuminated and the
damper LEDs are green to indicate open.
• On a call for heat, cool, or fan, the calling zone damper
stays open, and the other zone dampers close:
— Panel energizes the HVAC equipment and conditioned
air is delivered to the calling zone.
— Heat LED (red), cool LED (green), or fan LED (green)
illuminates to indicate equipment operation.
— Fan LED illuminates only during a call for circulation; it
does not illuminate during a call for heat or cool.
• When the call is satisfied, the system enters the Purge
mode. After Purge, all dampers return to the Open position
• Any zone thermostat can call for heating or cooling. If there
are co-existing calls for heat and cool, the panel accepts
the first call.
• Once a call is satisfied, or a maximum of 20 minutes has
elapsed, the panel switches to allow the opposite call after
completing Purge mode.
Purge Mode
• At the end of every call for heat or cool, the panel enters a
Purge mode that holds open the calling zone damper for
two minutes (default) or three and one-half minutes.During
this time, the panel or the HVAC equipment can be
configured to operate the fan.
• The Purge LED lights to signal that the system is in the
Purge mode. Pressing the purge override button overrides
the Purge mode.
• Unless there is a new call for heat or cool during the Purge
mode, all dampers are moved to the Open position at the
end of Purge.
• The panel can be configured to open all dampers during
purge mode.See Table 4 to configure the Purge mode
using DIP switches 8, 9 and 10.
Individual Zone Fan Control
• The fan switch of each thermostat controls the fan
operation for that zone.
• When the Fan switch is in the On position, the fan is
energized, and dampers close to zones where the Fan
switch is in Auto position.
• During a call for heat or cool at this time, the circulation
mode ceases, and the heat or cool call is honored.
• When the zone calling is satisfied, the circulation call
resumes.
Single- and Multi-Stage Operation
The panel can control up to two stages of heat and cool:
• First stage is energized by the thermostat
• Second stage of heating or cooling can be energized by
the thermostat or timer.
Single-Stage
Select a single stage thermostat, see Table 1. Set DIP
switches 1, 2, and 3 to Off to disable the stage timer.
Multi-Stage
THERMOSTAT-CONTROLLED STAGES
• Select a multi-stage thermostat, see Table 1, that
energizes W2 and Y2 for second stage of heat and cool.
• Configure DIP switches 1, 2 and 3 to Off to disable the
stage timer.
Timer Controlled Stages
• The panel stage timer energizes the second stage of heat
or cool after the first stage has been calling for a specified
amount of time.
• Second stage remains energized until the call for heat or
cool is satisfied.
• See Table 5 for stage timer configuration.
Heat Pump Operation
The panel can control single or two stage heat pumps with or
without auxiliary heat:
• Set DIP switch 4 to Off for heat pump control. This
energizes the Y1 on a call for first stage heat or cool.
• Set DIP switch 7 to Off to engage the fan with a call for
heat.
Thermostat Controlled Stages
• Select a thermostat from Table 1. Configure DIP switches
1,2, and 3 to off to disable the stage timer.
— When thermostat calls for first stage, panel energizes
Y1, G and the correct reversing valve terminal.
— When the thermostat calls for second stage heat on
W2, the panel energizes the equipment W2 terminal.
• Recommended heat pump thermostats can switch the
panel to emergency heat:
— In this mode, Y1 equipment terminal is disabled and E
is energized on a call for heat.
— If the same source of heat is used for emergency heat
and auxiliary heat, W2 and E equipment terminals
must be jumpered.
• Emergency heat can be energized by the Em Heat switch
on the panel.
• If the equipment is a two-stage heat pump, W2 and Y2
equipment terminals must be jumpered and wired to the
second stage compressor contactor.
• If the equipment is a two-stage heat pump with auxiliary
heat, select the TZ-4 TotalZone™ panel.
Timer Controlled Stages
If single-stage thermostats are used, the EMM-3U can
energize second stage using stage time:
• The timer can be set to engage second stage heat or cool
after the first stage has been calling for the specified length
of time.
• See Table 5 for DIP switch configuration.
Thermostat Operation
Conventional Thermostats
Conventional (R,W,Y,G) heat/cool thermostats can be used
with the EMM-3U to control single or multi-stage gas, electric,
or oil systems and heat pumps with or without auxiliary heat.
• For two stage heat or cool equipment, configure the stage
timer with DIP switches 1, 2 and 3. See Table 5. This
enables the panel to engage second stage after stage one
has been calling for the specified length of time.
68-0237-212
EMM-3U UNIVERSAL ELECTRONIC MINIZONE™ PANEL
• Heat pumps can be controlled by conventional thermostats
because the EMM-3U controls the reversing valve based
on whether the panel is in heat or cool.
— It controls auxiliary heat through the stage timer.
— For heat pump applications, set DIP switch 4 to Off.
• In all cases, when a conventional thermostat is used, the
O/B thermostat type jumper located next to each
thermostat connection must remain disconnected.
Heat Pump Thermostats
Heat pump thermostats that have a single Y terminal for first
stage heat and cool and those with separate Y1 and W1 can
be used with the EMM-3U. Thermostats of either type can be
used on any zone. Set DIP switch 4 to Off for heat pump
control.
HEAT PUMP THERMOSTATS WITH SINGLE Y OUTPUT
Thermostats with a single Y wire for first stage heat and cool
can be connected to the EMM-3U. O/B thermostat type
jumpers must be set correctly:
— If the thermostat uses O for changeover, connect it to
the O/B thermostat terminal on the panel and connect
the O/B jumper on the panel. (There is one jumper for
each zone.)
— If B is used, leave the jumper disconnected.
HEAT PUMP THERMOSTATS WITH SEPARATE Y1 AND W1
TERMINALS
• Heat pump thermostats with separate Y1 and W2 terminals
for first stage can be used to control a heat pump.
• On these installations, it is not necessary to connect O or B
from the thermostat.
• Leave the O/B thermostat type jumper disconnected.
Manual and Automatic Changeover
Thermostats
Manual or automatic changeover thermostats can be used.
• The panel determines the call for heat or cool based on
which was called for first.
• Subsequent calls for heat or cool are honored when the
initial call is satisfied, or 20 minutes has elapsed.
Rebooting the Microprocessor
To reset the panel, press and release the Boot button. The
system reboots and enters the Purge mode.
Discharge Air Temperature Sensor
The C7735A1000 Discharge Air Temperature Sensor is a
supply-duct-mounted temperature probe used to control
capacity and prevent high limit or coil icing.
• The sensor attaches to the two DATS terminals on the
panel.
• When a high or low limit is reached, the panel shuts off the
equipment and keeps the fan operating for 2-1/2 minutes.
• After this time, it re-energizes the equipment after the
discharge air temperature recovers by ten degrees.
• When the DATS exceeds the high or low limit, the Heat
(red) or Cool (green) LED flashes.
• Set the temperature to 120°F for heat pump systems or
160°F for fossil fuel. The low limit can be set to 40°F or
48°F.
See Table 4 to configure high and low limit using DIP switches
5 and 6.
Emergency Heat Control
NOTE: Emergency heat is defined as using an auxiliary heat
source without using the heat pump. When the Em
Heat switch is in the Em Ht position, the heat pump is
locked out and calls for heat are sent to the E equipment terminal.
• A recommended heat pump thermostat (see Table 1) can
also switch the board to the emergency heat mode. When
one or more thermostats is in emergency heat, the board
locks out the heat pump.
• When the same source of heat is used for auxiliary heat
and emergency heat, the W2 and E equipment terminals
are jumpered together. Set DIP switch 12 to the Off
position.
• When a different source of heat is used for Auxiliary Heat
and Emergency Heat, Auxiliary Heat is wired to W2 and
Emergency Heat is wired to E. Set DIP switch 12 to On.
When the EMM3-U is then set to Emergency heat, it first
engages equipment terminal E on a call for heat and the
second stage of emergency heat is then W2.
Multi-Stage Thermostats
Use multi-stage thermostats to control up to two stages of
heat or cool with the Y2 and W2 thermostat terminals on the
panel.
IMPORTANT
Be sure the Discharge Air Temperature Sensor
wiring does not run parallel with line voltage wiring
unless more than 12 inches of separation exists or
shielded cable is used.
NOTE: The yellow purge LED flashes in all modes other
than purge when there is a DATS failure, a wiring
problem, or when no DATS is connected to the
panel.
The zone control panel will continue to operate correctly when
the purge LED is flashing but without the high and low limit
protection.
Circuit Breaker Protection
A built-in thermal circuit breaker protects the panel against
shorts in the thermostat and damper wiring:
• When the circuit breaker is tripped, none of the LEDs
illuminate and the yellow rectangular component located
left of the R and C terminals is hot when touched.
• Remove power to the panel for at least five minutes to
allow the breaker to cool and reset.
• To eliminate the short, verify damper and thermostat wiring.
Fan On In Heat
The system blower can be set to come on with a call for heat
as required for hydro-air or electric heat systems:
• Setting DIP switch 7 to Off configures the blower to engage
with a call for heat.
