2. Hang Farm Hand Heat Zone Controller with four screws and the plastic mounting

brackets included.

3. Make sure all power supplies are disconnected before breaking any wires, or

reaching into the enclosure.

4. Open the Heat Zone Controller and find all connections. Refer to wiring diagrams in

back of this manual.

5. Run sensors out to locations inside the house. Be sure that the sensors are in a safe

location, free from any temperature influences (direct sunlight, water, etc.) Use care
when securing sensor wires so that you do not cut the wire. Any short, or break in
the wire will cause improper sensor operation.

6. Connect each sensor to its appropriate terminals inside the enclosure. (See the wiring

diagram in Section 9.6 of this manual.)

7. Connect wires from stage terminals to the brooders. See Section 9.4 for wiring to an

HSI brooder or Section 9.5 for wiring to a Zone brooder.

8. Connect the wires for either 120Vor 240V power to the terminals specified in the

wiring diagram in Section 9.7.
