To wire a ZS duct sensor
NOTES
• Do not drill into the sensor's watertight enclosure which will violate the NEMA and/or IP rating.
• Use caulk or Teflon tape for your conduit entries to maintain the appropriate NEMA or IP rating for your
application.
• For outdoor or wet applications, conduit entry should be from the bottom of the enclosure.
The Rnet cable is wired to the controller. The shield wire and the ground wire should be inserted
into the controller's GND terminal.
1 Turn off the controller's power.
2 Partially cut, then bend and pull off the outer jacket of the Rnet cable(s). Do not nick the inner insulation.

3 Strip about .25 inch (.6 cm) of the inner insulation from each wire.
4 Unlatch and open the hinged door on the sensor's enclosure.
5 Pull the Rnet communication cable through the knockout hole.
6 If wiring 1 cable to the sensor, cut the shield wire off at the outer jacket, then wrap the cable with tape at the
outer jacket to cover the end of the shield wire.
If wiring 2 cables in a daisy-chain configuration, twist together the shield wires, then wrap the shield wires
with tape.
7 Insert the other 4 wires into the sensor's screw terminal connector. If wiring 2 cables, insert like-colored wires
into each terminal.
