1. A wireless damper system comprising:
- a wireless controller for communicating with a wireless interface using an identifier whereby actuation timing of a damper actuator is transmitted by signal;
the wireless interface connected to a damper to be controlled or tested using the transmitted signal;
the wireless controller transmits the signal to the wireless interface for operational verification of the damper and the damper actuator; and
the wireless interface detects a damper state by contacts mounted on the damper and communicates the damper state to the wireless controller, wherein the wireless interface is disposed in a first housing and is mounted on a duct and connected to a junction box, and the actuator is disposed in a second housing and is mounted on the duct in a separate location from the first housing and the junction box.
