Between Multiple Indoor Units Operating as a 
Group (Group Control)
If any indoor units were specified to operate in unison:
• Before running cable, decide which indoor unit will be the “Main.” The other indoor 
units in that group will be designated as “Sub(s).” The zone controller will be connected 
to the “Main.”
• Set the pertinent DIP switch at each indoor unit to identify the Main and Sub(s). On wall 
mounted indoor unit models, set the assignment using the handheld remote controller.
• Use a daisy chain configuration and connect all of the group’s indoor units together 
starting at the “Main” unit.  
•
NEVER splice, cut, or extend cable length with field provided cable. Always 
include enough cable to cover distance between all components.
For indoor units with hardwired connections SIG - 12V - GND (Comm.) 
terminals:
• From the controller to the main indoor unit, use 22 AWG, 3-conductor, twisted, strand-
ed, unshielded. All wiring must comply with all applicable local / national codes. 
• From the main indoor unit to the sub indoor unit(s), daisy chain using 22 AWG, 3-con-
ductor, twisted, stranded, unshielded. All wiring must comply with all applicable local / 
national codes. 
•(
Do not attach wire to 12VDC terminal to the sub indoor units). All wiring must 
comply with all applicable local and national codes. 
• NEVER splice, cut, or extend cable length; always include enough cable to cover 
distance between all components.
For indoor units with CN-REMO connections:
8VHRQHRUPXOWLSOH*URXS&RQWURO.LWVVROGVHSDUDWHO\FRQWDLQLQJH[WHQVLRQDQG
Y-splitter cables. Use one (1) group control cable kit for each indoor unit in the group 
except for the last indoor unit.  NEVER splice, cut, or extend cable length with 
field provided cable.
• Cable connected to zone controller is the factory default connection.
• Indoor unit connections depend on indoor unit type.
