If one or more heat or cool stages will be ON, wire fan 
N.C. so it will be active during controller off-line times. 
Otherwise, wire N.O.

If any heat or cool stages are configured to be ON (N.C.), 
set the wiring and the switch to N.C., and set either the 
LOW or HIGH stage output to N.C. (whichever speed 
you want active). If no heat or cool will be active, set 
LOW, HIGH, and the fan contactor to N.O.

11.7 Zone Control
11.7.1 Overview
An HVAC Zone is a collection of up to sixteen rooftop 
units or air handling units that work together to maintain 
the same temperature and humidity throughout a particular 
volume of space. The primary function of an HVAC Zone 
is to “manage” the operation of each individual HVAC 
unit by providing the temperature setpoints that will be 
used in Temperature Control. Zones are also responsible 
for ordering HVAC units to dehumidify and determining 
when outside air conditions are favorable to economize.
11.7.2 How Zones Work
A Zone is built by first creating a Zone application in 
the E2 BX. Then, all HVAC unit applications that will be a 
part of the Zone must be connected with the Zone applica-
tion. This connection process is known as association.
When a rooftop unit or AHU is associated with a Zone, 
the E2 automatically makes a series of I/O connections 
between the Zone application and the individual MultiFlex 
RTU or AHU application. From that point on, the Zone is 
responsible for passing along the following information to 
the individual unit:
• The heating and cooling setpoints it will use 
during occupied and unoccupied building 
times.
• A command to operate in either occupied or 
unoccupied mode (based on the Zone appli-
cation’s own time schedule input).
• Outdoor air and outdoor relative humidity 
values.
• A signal to enable or disable economization 
(based on the Zone application’s own econo-
mization checking method).
• A signal to begin or end dehumidification 
(based on the Zone application’s own humid-
ity reading and dehumidification setpoint).
• A signal indicating the current season is 
either SUMMER or WINTER.
• The combined Zone Temperature and Zone 
humidity (based on a combination of each 
HVAC unit’s space temperature and space 
humidity).
• The fallback temperature and humidity set-
points to use in case the unit loses contact 
with its Zone application.
