Remote Temperature Sensors

I'm looking for a zone air temperature control station where my customer can control 9 zones from one panel in a mechanical room. He would need 9 seperate room temperature sensors and would wants to control each room individually from the main panel. I know there are some pretty in depth building management systems out there but I'm looking for something a little simpler. Any suggestions would help.
Thanks!

    options

    There are a multitude of options available!!! Outdoor reset, priority zones, etc.

    There are controllers that just use air sensors with no "manual adjustment" or controllers that can use standard thermostat inputs as well.

    Check out Taco Zone controllers, Tekmar controllers, Erie and Argo also make controllers. Im sure that there are more, but that is a good starting place.

    With a little more info maybe I good help steer you in a more specific place.

    The PC8900/W8300...

    offers up to nine remote sensors, plus the one on-board the control unit. It averages the input from all of them and bases the equipment operation on that. It is NOT true zoning control, which can only be accomplished with each zone having its own stat and zone valve or zone damper. In that case, consider the Y8835A Enviracom Networked Zoning system, which can provide that degree of control, hydronic or scorched air. Both offer optional remote communications, allowing changes and monitoring via any touchtone phone. Available from any Honeywell distributor.
