MASTERTROL® AUTOMATIC BALANCING SYSTEM™ (MABS®) EZ ZONE (EZ-2 AND EZ-4) CONTROL PANELS
69-1360–2 10
LED Indicators
The panel features several LED status indicators visible 
through a window in the cover. See Table 6.
Re-Booting the Microprocessor
When conditions hang up the microprocessor, press and 
release the Boot button to re-boot the system and enter the 
Purge mode.
ZoneMAX Sensor Leaving Air Temperature Sensor
The ZMS (not included) is a duct-mounted temperature probe 
that monitors the supply of air temperature to control capacity 
and prevent over-heating or coil icing. The sensor attaches to 
the TL terminals at the upper left corner of the panel. See Fig. 
9.
IMPORTANT
The ZMS wires must be at least 12 in. away from line 
voltage wiring to ensure correct operation. When not 
possible, shielded cable must be used.
ZoneMAX Sensor Configuration
DIP switches 2 and 3 set the ZoneMAX Sensor temperature 
limit. See Table 7. The recommended setting for fossil fuel/
heat pump systems is 160°F (71°C). For heat pump systems, 
the recommended setting is 120°F (49°). The cooling 
temperature limit can be set to 40°F (4°C) or 48°F (9°C). 
OPERATION
If the system trips due to exceeding a high or low temperature, 
the heating or cooling system shuts down and the fan 
continues running to dissipate the conditioned air from the 
plenum. If the low limit was tripped, the cool LED flashes 
continuously until it resets. If the high limit was tripped, the 
Heat LED flashes continuously until it resets.
The ZoneMAX Sensor resets and allows normal system 
operation when the supply air temperature rises ten degrees 
in cooling mode, or falls ten degrees in heating mode. The ten 
degrees provide adequate time to prevent short cycling of the 
unit.
Circuit Breaker Protection
A built-in thermal circuit breaker protects the panel against 
shorts in the thermostat and damper wiring and the remote 
occupied/unoccupied switch. It does not protect against shorts 
in the HVAC equipment wiring into the panel.
OPERATION
None of the LEDs light when the circuit breaker tripped. The 
fuse is a yellow square or rectangular disk located right of the 
TR1 and TR2 terminals. If it is hot to touch, remove panel 
power for ten seconds to allow the circuit breaker to cool off 
and reset.
