GENERAL anywAiR Zoneconnex air conditioning

GENERAL Australia’s Zoneconnex is a Wi-Fi-enabled zone control solution designed to give users greater control over ducted air conditioning systems in residential and light commercial environments. Using the company’s anywAiR technology, the system provides independent control of up to 10 zones, letting users manage airflow across different areas of a home or building.

With adjustments in 5% increments, the system is designed to provide precise control over airflow distribution, helping improve comfort while reducing unnecessary energy use. It supports more efficient operation by letting users condition only the spaces they need, while maintaining consistent temperatures throughout the home or building.

Users operate the system via a wall-mounted controller designed for simple, everyday use. Key functions such as temperature, fan speed and operating modes are easily accessible, while built-in scheduling lets them tailor operation to suit their daily routines. Users can also access the system remotely through a mobile app available on iOS and Android devices.

The design also supports straightforward, efficient installation, with the Zoneconnex controller connecting directly to the indoor unit PCB via a standard universal asynchronous receiver–transmitter (UART) port. Using the same connection method as existing NXT adaptors, this reduces the need for additional components and simplifies the installation process.

A dedicated setup mode lets installers complete commissioning using the controller’s own Wi-Fi signal, removing the need to connect to a local network during installation and helping streamline onsite setup.
