Operation/External Diagnostics: When any thermostat calls for
heat, the appropriate zone valve is energized and the yellow light
goes on. When the zone valve is fully open, the red light goes on
and energizes the end switch relay. The green light should always
be on, indicating that power is connected.
Priority Operation: When zone 6 is switched to the priority setting
and is actuated, all other zones will stop operation until zone 6 is sat-
isfied. When zone 6 is not switched to priority, all zones will operate
independently. Note: When a circulator is used on the priority zone
instead of a zone valve, jumper 3 and 4 of the priority zone.
Priority Protection Operation: When the priority zone calls con-
tinuously for more than one hour, power is returned to all the
other zones, allowing each zone to function independently. Once
the priority zone is satisfied, the control's auto-reset is activated
and the priority zone is again allowed to have priority for up to one
hour starting from when it calls next.
The Taco Connection: Combine the reliability of the Taco Zone
Valves, Priority Zoning Circulators, Thermostats, and the “00” family
of circulators with the advanced features of the Taco Zone Controls to
achieve total system integration. No matter the application, Taco now
provides the products to maximize system performance while simpli-
fying both installation and service.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
WARNING: Wiring connections must be made in accordance with all
applicable electrical codes. Use copper wire only. 120 VAC wiring must have
a minimum temperature rating of 75°C. Failure to follow this instruction
can result in personal injury or death and/or property damage. 12-18 gauge
wire recommended for 120 VAC connections, 14-22 gauge wire for thermo-
stat connections, and 14-22 gauge wire for 24 VAC source connections.
