shows a network-level view of a simple Metasys system network.
Internet Protocol (IP) Networks
In this handbook, Ethernet refers to the IP networks that connects computers, workstations, and network-level
supervisory controllers. LANs, WANs, and the Internet are examples of IP Ethernet networks. Networks may also
refer to WLANs and other high-level wireless networks that connect computers across wireless connections. These
high-level (wired and wireless) IP networks allow users to access HVAC control systems via a computer browser,
and enable the user to monitor and control HVAC equipment across the building or across the country.
Network-Level Supervisory Controllers
Network-level supervisory controllers such as NAEs, NIEs, NCEs, and NCMs connect to IP Ethernet networks and
field communications buses. Supervisory controllers are set up to monitor and control one or more field-level
communication buses, and provide access to and control of the devices on the communication bus. Supervisory
controllers also store alarms and system trends generated by devices on the communications bus and can
communicate that information to other computers on Ethernet networks.

Figure 1-1: Metasys System Network and Field Communications Buses

Communications Buses
Communications buses are field-level networks of field controllers, thermostats, and other devices that connect
and control HVAC systems and equipment. In Metasys systems, the field-level communication buses are
connected to and controlled by network-level supervisory controllers. There are a variety of protocols for
communication buses. This handbook provides information for the three types of communications buses that you
typically encounter on Johnson Controls HVAC projects: BACnet MS/TP Bus, N2 Bus, and LONWORKS Network
Bus.
Field-Level Controllers and Input/Output Modules
Field controllers are discrete programmable controls designed to control HVAC equipment, such as air handlers,
chillers, roof top units, and VAV boxes. There are many different types field controllers, each designed for a specific
type of HVAC equipment and each designed to communicate over a specific type of communications bus. In this
handbook, Input/Output Modules (IOMs) are grouped with field controllers and operate on field-level buses. IOMs
increase the number and type of control points that can be connected to the bus and expand the buses control
capacity.

Introduction: Section 1 5
INTRO

Sensors and Thermostats


Sensors and thermostats also connect to the field-level communications buses. Sensors provide temperature input
and control to the field controllers. Thermostats also provide temperature input and control, but thermostats can
also provide much more control than sensors, such as fan control, damper control, heat pump control, and more.
Network thermostats can provide the same level of control as a field controller and are often considered field
equipment controllers on the bus.

HVAC
DRWGS
HVAC Control Drawings Content
A set of Johnson Controls HVAC control project drawings is provided for each Johnson Controls project. The
DRWGS

drawings provide details for installing and wiring a Building Automation System and HVAC controls at a job site.
HVAC

The control drawing set typically contains a Title Page, Riser Diagrams, System Drawings (per field bus type), a
Point Schedule (per field bus type if required), and Room, Valve and Damper Schedules.
FAN 55.510 contains sample control drawings for N2, BACnet, MS/TP, LON, and factory-installed systems as well
as a more extensive explanation of the drawings.
Each of the control drawing sections and types has a specific purpose. The following paragraphs give an overview
of each section or type of drawing.
Title Page
The title page is critical because it defines the job name, address, and project numbers assigned. It also provides
the names of the general contractor, mechanical contractor, architect, and project.
In addition, the title page contains a Table of Contents for the drawing set as well as a Legend of Symbols.
Riser Diagrams
Riser diagrams are usually generic in nature and are designed to show:
• generally how the field bus cabling (Ethernet, N2, FC-MS/TP, SA Bus, or LON Bus) should be routed.
• which field bus controllers are intended to be connected to which supervisory controller or engine.
Note: Because of engineering requirements, it is important that you do not alter the connections between the
supervisory controller and its field bus controllers, unless you are authorized to do so.
• the anticipated device address for each controller.
• the bus numbers (for controllers or engines that support more than one bus).
• the planned locations of supervisory and field bus controllers.
It is important to understand that the cable routing shown is general in nature, and you are expected to route the
bus cables in the manner that provides the lowest cost. You are also expected to show the actual cable routes you
used on the mechanical drawings and to keep the Johnson Controls control drawing updated for as-built
documents. In addition, the location of the first and last controllers on the field bus (and bus segments) must be
noted on the as-built documents for actual end-of-line termination locations.
System Drawings
For a given mechanical system, a system drawing can consist of one or multiple drawings within the drawing set.
Typically, system drawings consist of a system flow diagram, object (point) identifiers, sequence of operation, bill of
material, point schedules, and termination details.
Typically, simple system drawings, such as VAV boxes, are shown entirely on one page. Larger, more complex
systems, such as AHUs and central plants, are shown on several pages.
For simple systems, separate point schedules and termination detail drawings are usually omitted and the
terminations, and cable requirements are defined on the point-to-point wiring diagrams.
For more complex systems, the point schedules are often used to summarize the point types and numbers,
equipment locations, cable and termination numbers, intermediate device requirements, and reference details.
Flow Diagram or Drawing
System drawings almost always have a flow diagram (Figure 2-1 on page 7). The flow diagram is a high level
representation of mechanical equipment and identifies the general location of control devices within a system,
depicting how air and/or water moves through the system.
Note: Although flow diagrams accurately depict how air or water moves through a system, the actual mechanical
equipment and system configuration often looks different from the drawings.

8 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


Object (or Point) Identifiers (Names)
Object (or Point) Identifiers (Figure 2-1 on page 7) are unique alphanumeric tags that identify individual controllers

DRWGS
and devices in the various HVAC control drawings and system diagrams. Each Object Identifier names a single

HVAC
discrete device across the entire set of HVAC drawings. Object Identifiers are the binding link between the various
system diagrams and are key to understanding how the different components are connected and how they operate
together.
An Object Identifier on the:
• Flow Diagram indicates where the device is to be located.
• Bill of Material shows the part number(s) and description of the control component(s).
• Point Schedule or line connection diagram, shows how the device is connected in the system.
• Termination Details shows how each cable or wire connects to a controller and field device.
Point identifiers are sometimes shown throughout the sequence of operations to show how the device is used to
operate equipment.
Sequence of Operation
The Sequence of Operation (Figure 2-1 on page 7) is a simple textual description, defining how a system is
required to function or operate. For Plan and Spec projects, the sequence of operations is almost always in the
project specifications or directly on the project mechanical System drawings.

IMPORTANT: The Sequence of Operation section is perhaps the single most important item to validate system
performance for the project owner, project consultant, and technician commissioning the project. It is critical that
all Johnson Controls employees and subcontractors involved in an installation understand the sequence of
operation completely to ensure that installation provides the specified system performance.

Bill of Material
The Bill of Material (Figure 2-1 on page 7) section is typically a stand-alone section that provides basic information
about the type and quantity of devices required for a project:
• The first column provides the object (point) Identifier for a device.
• The second column provides the Johnson Controls or vendor part number(s) associated with the device.
• The third column briefly describes the part.
The part number can be used to identify and locate product data sheets to learn more about a specific part,
including engineering data or detailed installation instructions.
Point Schedules
For most complex systems, the point schedules organize and summarize information in a table format (Figure 2-2
on page 11). This section describes each field on the point schedule.
• Tag: Correlates the point to another part of the project; for example, consultant’s points listing or, if required,
special device tagging requirements.
General Information
• Point Type: Identifies the control point type or function, which can be an analog input or output, binary input or
output, configurable, or universal point. (For example, BO-1 = Binary Output #1, AI-9 = Analog Input #9, CO-4
= Configurable Output #4.)
• System Name: A unique alpha-numeric identifier tag that identifies a common type of mechanical system or
controller, or software system. (For example, AHU-1 = Air Handler Unit #1, VAV-8 = Variable Air Volume
Controller #8, and RTU-1 = Roof Top Unit #1.)
• Object Name: An identifier tag for common types of hardware and software control points. (For example, DA-
T = Discharge Air Temp, MAD-O = Mixed Air Damper Output, and LT-A = Low Temp Alarm.)
Note: An Object Name not only identifies the same type of hardware or software point throughout an entire
project, but it also identifies the same type of hardware or software point across almost all other
Johnson Controls projects.

Point schedules can be viewed as a master list of hardware connection points for a given system. It is important to
understand that some items, such as 24 VAC power and bus wiring to a Smart VSD, are not shown on the point
schedule. These types of connections are shown on the termination details or riser diagrams.
Termination Reference Details
Termination details (Figure 2-3 on page 12) are referenced on the point schedule as Ref Detail Shape. Typically,
one sheet per system can show the engineered details associated with the termination of a given point at the field
device, field bus controller, intermediate devices, and any hardware DIP switch (device address) settings.
Termination details are also referred to as wiring details.

Locating and Installing HVAC Controllers and Sensors
General Guidelines
Overview
This section provides general guidelines for determining mounting locations and installing network controllers and
sensors. Many of the guidelines are best practices that can be applied to locating and installing many different

INSTALL
LOCATE
controllers and zone/room sensors or thermostats, but this section focuses on Metasys system HVAC controllers
and sensors, and uses them as examples. In this section:
• Controller refers to supervisory controllers (NAEs, NCEs, NCMs, and others), field controllers (FECs, IOMs,
VMAs, UNTs, VAVs, AHUs, FSCs, LN Series controllers, and others), converters (SECVTs), and other
discrete building automation or HVAC controllers
• Sensor refers to room/zone thermostats (TEC26xx Series, TEC21xx Series, TE6700 Metastats, and others)
and room/zone sensors (NS Series, WRS-TTx Series, WRZ Series, and others).

IMPORTANT: This section is not intended to provide complete guidelines, procedures, or safety information for
the products you may be installing, and not all of the guidelines presented in this section pertain to every
controller or sensor. Refer to the product manufacturer’s Technical Literature and Product Installation
Instructions for additional installation guidelines, procedures, and product safety information.

Note: The information provided in this section may apply to locating and installing controllers in panels and
enclosures also. See Panels and Enclosures on page 435 for additional information.
Note: For information on locating and installing wireless controllers, routers, and devices, see Wireless Device
Location and Mounting Considerations on page 345.
Installation Materials, Hardware, and Special Tools
Some of the product Installation and Wiring Guidelines sections in this book provide a short list of the hardware/
materials and any special (not typical) tools required to mount a product in a simple or typical application. See the
Special Tools and Materials Needed sections in each device’s specific section.
Typically, no mounting hardware is shipped with controllers or sensors, and it is the responsibility of the installer to
supply any material or hardware required to mount the controllers and sensors. Use durable mounting hardware of
sufficient quality to ensure that the installation can endure for the life of the product. Some of the guidelines in this
section provide information on appropriate mounting hardware for installing the product. You should refer to the
product manufacturer’s Technical Literature and Product Installation Instructions for additional information on the
required installation material and hardware.
General Guidelines for Transporting, Receiving, and Storing Controllers and Sensors
Observe the following guidelines when receiving, transporting, shipping, handling, and storing controllers:
• Verify that all parts and documentation were shipped with the controller or sensor.
• Retain the original installation instructions (typically packed in the box with the controller or sensor) for future
reference.
• Ship, transport, and securely store the controller or sensor in the original box/container to minimize vibration,
shock, or other damage.
• Observe the ambient storage condition limits for the controllers and sensors. The ambient storage conditions
may be found in the Installation Specifications for the products in this handbook or refer to the manufacturer’s
Technical Literature and Product Installation Instructions.
• Always provide adequate protection for controllers and sensors on the project construction site. Do not expose
the controllers or sensors to dirt, drywall dust, liquids, or other construction materials and contaminants.
Protect all exposed wire terminations and modular jacks.
• Do not drop the controller or sensor, or subject it to any kind of physical shock.
• Coordinate job site delivery of product with the project’s schedule to ensure the product is not lost or damaged.

Code No. LIT-410004 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 3 13


General Guidelines for Locating and Mounting Controllers
Follow these guidelines when locating and mounting a controller:
• Observe all environmental limits and ensure that the mounting location maintains the ambient operating
conditions for the controller. The controller’s environmental limits and ambient operating limits are typically
specified in the Installation Specifications sections in this handbook, or refer to the product manufacturer’s
Technical Literature and Product Installation Instructions for additional Technical Specifications.
INSTALL
LOCATE

• Mount the controller indoors or in an approved enclosure where the ambient operating conditions are always
maintained. Do not mount the controller where it may be exposed to any water, condensation, or other liquids,
or to corrosive or flammable vapors of any kind.

IMPORTANT: Before mounting controller in plenum applications, verify acceptance of exposed plastic
materials in plenum areas with the local building authority. Building codes for plenum requirements vary by
location. Some local building authorities accept compliance to UL 1995 Heating and Cooling Equipment,
whereas others use different acceptance criteria.

• Mount the controller in an accessible location to facilitate wiring, commissioning, and future service. Provide
sufficient space around the controller to accommodate final cable runs and provide sufficient ventilation of the
controller. Do not obstruct the ventilation holes in the controller housing. Estimate an additional 5 to 10 cm (2 to
4 in.) around the controller to provide ventilation, wiring, and service.
• Mount the controller on a smooth, even surface whenever possible, and ensure that the mounting surface can
support the controller. If the controller must be on an uneven surface, be careful not to crack the mounting
clips, mounting feet, or controller housing when tightening the mounting screws. If necessary, use shims or
washers to mount the controller evenly and securely on the mounting surface. Do not overtighten the mounting
screws. Overtightening the screws may damage the mounting clips or controller. Use durable mounting
hardware such as Molly bolt anchors that cannot be easily pulled out of the mounting surface. Do not use
plastic expansion anchors to mount controllers or sensors.
• Mount the controller in the proper orientation (Figure 3-1 on page 14). Often, ventilation holes are located on
the top and bottom of the controller housing, allowing air to rise though the housing to facilitate convection
cooling.

• Do not mount the controller on surfaces that are prone to vibration or in areas where electromagnetic
emissions, inductive interference, or radio frequency signals from other devices or wiring can interfere with
controller operation or field bus communication.
• Do not mount the 24 VAC power supply transformer or any other heat generating sources below the controller.

14 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


Guidelines for Panel and Enclosure Mounting Applications
On applications where the controller is mounted inside a panel or enclosure, follow these additional guidelines:
• Mount the panel or enclosure on a smooth, even surface whenever possible, and ensure that the mounting
surface and mounting hardware can support the controller. See Panels and Enclosures on page 435 for more
information on mounting standard panels and enclosures.
• Do not mount any heat-generating devices in the controller’s enclosure that may cause the ambient

INSTALL
LOCATE
temperature in the panel to exceed the controller’s maximum ambient operating temperature.
• Do not install the controller in an airtight enclosure.
• Monitor the enclosure temperature or cooling-fan operation if enclosure temperature is maintained with a fan or
supplemental cooling.
Mounting Metasys System Controllers
To mount a controller in surface mount applications:
1. Pull the bottom mounting clips down until they lock in the extended position as shown in Figure 3-2 on page 15.
Note: The top mounting clip is always in the extended surface mount position.
2. Place the controller against the mounting surface and use it as a template to mark the location of the three
mounting holes.
3. Drill the appropriate size holes for the mounting hardware.
4. Use appropriate screws (typically #8) with the appropriate mounting hardware to secure the controller to the
mount surface.

Clips
Figure 3-2: Back of Typical Metasys System Controller

To mount the controller in DIN rail applications (Panel):


1. Mount a section of DIN rail (that is at least as wide as the controller) horizontally in a space that provides
adequate controller ventilation, and room for wires and wiring the control. Use appropriate hardware to support
the DIN rail, controller, and associated wiring.
2. Place the back of the controller over the mounted DIN rail so that the DIN rail hooks catch the top of the DIN
rail.
3. Position the controller so the DIN rail channel is flush on the DIN rail, and push the bottom mounting clips up to
lock the controller on the DIN rail.
To remove the controller, pull the bottom mounting clips down and swing the controller up and off the DIN rail.
Note: The top mounting clip is used for surface mount applications only. It may be removed on DIN rail mount
applications by pulling it upward and out of the clip slot in the controller housing.

Locating and Installing HVAC Controllers and Sensors: Section 3 15


Sensor Location and Mounting Guidelines
The intended room/zone sensor and thermostat locations are indicated on the HVAC project plans with a T .
If the intended sensor location is not clearly specified, or if you need to change the location, you should get
approval first. Follow these guidelines when locating and mounting a room/zone sensor or thermostat:
• Mount the sensor on an interior wall where it is easily accessible, at least 1.4 m (54 in.) above the floor, in an
area where the temperature is representative of the entire controlled space.
INSTALL
LOCATE

Note: Disability requirements or project specifications may specify unique mounting heights. Confirm
mounting heights before rough-in.
• Avoid locations that are exposed to drafts, direct sunlight, and other sources of heat or cooling.
• Avoid locations near entry foyers, doors, windows, supply air ducts, and pipes that impact the average ambient
conditions.
• Avoid locations subject to excessive vibration, electrical/inductive interference, or radio frequency interference.
• Avoid enclosed or recessed locations and locations behind curtains, doors, or other obstructions to the
controlled space.
• Avoid long cable or wire runs between the sensor and the controller. Long wire or cable run can impact sensor
accuracy. For maximum wire lengths for sensors, see Metasys System Cable and Wire Standards on
page 465.

Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors
General Guidelines
Overview
This section provides an overview of and general guidelines for wiring Metasys system HVAC controllers and
sensors. Included are best practices that are important to the quality and ease of installation. For specific
instructions on installing and wiring Metasys system network controllers, thermostats, sensors, and other HVAC
components, refer to the particular Installation Instruction sheets and Technical Bulletins. For information on
selecting the proper cable and wire types and sizes for Metasys installations, see Metasys System Cable and Wire
Standards on page 465.

WIRING
General Guidelines for Wiring Metasys System Networks
CAUTION: Risk of Electric Shock.

! Disconnect all power supplies before making electrical connections to avoid electric shock.

IMPORTANT: Do not apply power to the Metasys network before finishing communication wiring and checking
all wiring connections. Short-circuited or improperly connected wires can result in permanent damage to the
equipment.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring in accordance with local, national, and regional
regulations. Do not exceed the electrical ratings for the devices on the Metasys network.

IMPORTANT: Do not run network communication wiring (Ethernet, N2 Bus, Zone Bus, FC Bus, SA Bus, or
LONWORKS Bus) in the same in the same conduit, raceway, or panels with any high-voltage (>30 VAC) wiring or
any low-voltage (<30 VAC) wiring that supplies inductive loads. ZB, AI, AO, and BI wiring may be run in the
same conduit or bundle, where convenient. Isolate all network devices from high-voltage wiring and equipment
and from low-voltage inductive wiring. Failure to isolate network wiring and equipment from high-voltage wiring
and equipment or low-voltage inductive loads can result in equipment damage and poor network performance.

IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge to the network devices. Static electric discharge can
damage the devices and void any warranties.

Follow these guidelines when installing and wiring Metasys system network devices:
• Route cables neatly to promote good ventilation, visibility, testing, and ease of service.
• Provide some slack in the wires and cables. If using preconfigured cables, coil and secure any excess cable.
• Protect and secure cables all along their route. Do not run cables near moving parts. Avoid sharp bends,
abrasion, and the potential for severing or crushing the cable. Run all raceways and cables parallel or
perpendicular to building lines.
• Ensure proper grounding for bus cable that requires a shield.
• Ensure proper EOL termination on communication buses.
• Use dedicated transformers for 24 VAC supply power to network devices to isolate the network devices from
inductive spikes, or provide surge protection on the primary side of the 24 VAC supply power transformers.
• When the binary outputs of a controller are used to source power for an inductive load (for example, a
contractor, starter, or other coil), consider using a separate transformer to power the inductive loads. This
avoids creating a current path for inductive spikes coupled directly to the control circuitry. If a separate
transformer is not available, install surge protection across the inductive loads to prevent misoperation of the
controller (Johnson Controls Part No. AS-MOVKIT-0 or Electrocube Part No. RG1782-6 or RG2031-6).

Code No. LIT-410005 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 4 17


• As with all electrical practices, consistency is expected. For example, proper continuity for bus wiring from
device to device and from terminal to terminal is essential. If you are an electrical installer and have any
questions about how to install or wire a system, you must get direction from project leadership before
proceeding.
• Due to the repetitive nature of system installations, a best practice is to validate the first systems you install
before proceeding with the rest of the installation. This practice eliminates rework and associated costs.

IMPORTANT: Cable installed under metal-corrugated sheet roof decking shall be supported so the nearest
outside surface of the cable or raceway is not less than 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) from the nearest surface of the roof
decking.

Generally Accepted Installation Practices


All wiring and cabling must conform to the NFPA 70 National Electric Code and be in accordance with all state and
local codes plus project specifications for the location in which the wiring and cabling is installed. Wires and cables
must meet the applicable requirements of NFPA 70 and UL for the type of installation, jacket, and conductor
specified or required. Fire Alarm system wiring must meet UL 760. Do not use wires and cables manufactured
more than 12 months prior to delivery to the site.

18 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


Install all wiring in a workman-like manner, free from splices. Subcontractors must replace wires and cables that
are nicked, scraped, or damaged at no cost to Johnson Controls. Provide service loops for all wiring and cabling in
all control panels, or in the closest pull box to the device being wired.
Subcontractors or electrical installers must provide and install all control wiring to all Johnson Controls panels,
equipment, and devices.
Identify and tag all wiring and cabling in accordance with Johnson Controls control drawings and/or point
schedules. Tag all wires and cables at each end, and where spliced or terminated, with a Johnson Controls
approved identification system. If you are required to run in conduit, run fire alarm communication cables in conduit
systems containing only fire alarm system wiring.
Ducts, plenums, and other air-handling spaces have a greater supply of oxygen for the spreading of fire. Because
this air is supplied to the environment, there is the danger of spreading toxic products of combustion that can impair

WIRING
vision in a fire-fighting or egress situation. For this reason, use plenum rated cables (type CL2P or higher) and tie
raps when exposed in ducts, plenums, or other space used for environmental air.
Use of Shielded Communication Wiring
In an installation where cabling is subjected to transients because of its proximity to sources of electrical noise, you
should install FC-MS/TP, SA, N2, AI, AO, or BI cable, or multiple cables with 22 AWG/3-wire or 22 AWG/2-wire
stranded, twisted, and shielded to avoid communication issues. If shielded communication cable is used, follow
these best practices:
• Handle and terminate shielded cable properly. (Based on tests conducted by Johnson Controls engineers,
improper handling of the shields can create installations that are less stable than if no shield is used.)
• Establish only one hard ground connection of the Shield per bus segment. Install this hard ground at the
supervisory controller when the controller is also at the end of line, and terminate the Shield within 1 inch of
entering an enclosure.
• Isolate from ground all other Shield connections, unless communication problems persist.
• If communication problems persist, add an extra level of protection by soft grounding the Shield within 1 inch
of entering their respective enclosures with a 560 pF capacitor. This provides the highest level of noise
immunity, although it should not be needed for most situations.
• As an option, run shielded cable in the same conduit or bundle as 24 VAC power wiring.
Cable Sizes
Point Schedules in the HVAC project drawings show the cable and wire sizes to be used. For information on Point
Schedules, see Understanding HVAC Control Drawings on page 7.
The size of conductors may need to be increased to meet installation conditions or project requirements. The two
most common conditions that may require conductor size adjustment are:
• long cable runs for resistive temperature sensors
• 24 VAC power distributions from Transformers to Zone Controls
For information on recommended cable and wire size/gauge, see Metasys System Cable and Wire Standards on
page 465.
RJ-Style Modular Connectors and Cables
IMPORTANT: Ensure all that communication bus cables are disconnected from power sources before cutting
or crimping the cable. Failure to disconnect the cable before cutting or crimping can result in damage to the
connected bus devices and void any warranties on the devices.

On Plenum Cable Jobs


For plenum jobs where you can run open wiring, use preconfigured cables with RJ-style connectors. Using factory
preconfigured cables is more efficient and accurate than fabricating cables with RJ-style connectors in the field.

Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors: Section 4 19


EMT or Conduit Jobs
When EMT or conduit raceways are required, use standard cable and the device terminal screws (because RJ-
style modular connectors do not pull through conduit well, and the prefabricated cables are seldom the right length
for the conduit run). If the preconfigured cables are the right length, you can use them if you cut off one end, pull
the cable, and then terminate the other end.
Note: Network sensor cables with RJ-12 connectors pull much more effectively through raceways than TE-6700
Metastat cables with RJ-45 connectors. Also, if you pull an RJ-style connector through a raceway, you should test
it after installation to ensure that the connector is not damaged.
Cable Installation Tips
Follow these guidelines when installing cables with RJ-style modular connectors:
WIRING

• Use proper techniques when fabricating and installing cables with RJ-style connectors.
• When attaching wires to RJ-style connectors, ensure that all of the cable conductors are fully inserted in the
connector in the proper positions and securely crimped into the connector. For details on proper pinouts for
Ethernet, Metastat or network sensors, see their specific sections in this guide.
• Route and support cables neatly to promote good ventilation, visibility, appearance, and troubleshooting.
Provide some slack between connections. If using preconfigured cables, coil and secure the excess cable.
• Test all cables for proper pinout and continuity before connecting cables to controllers, thermostats, or sensors.
• Because of the considerable time that can elapse between running the cable and connecting the thermostat or
sensor, you should wrap the RJ-style connectors with tape or other means to protect them from drywall mud,
paint, and other construction site hazards.
The EZ-RJ45 Crimper (Figure 4-3 on page 20) manufactured by Bomar Interconnect Products, Inc. reduces
termination errors and can be used to terminate RJ-12 or RJ-45 connectors. The tool, when used with Bomar
connectors, allows the wires to pass entirely through the RJ connector and allows you to crimp the wires into the
connector and trim the excess wire, all in a single operation. To order these product online, go to
http://www.bomarinterconnect.com, or call Anixter at 1-800-447-8565.

In addition to this crimping tool, other products are available to test
cables and RJ-45 or RJ-12 connectors. For example, the TP600

Wiring Guidelines for Network Sensors with RJ-
Style Ports
The N2 Metastats (with RJ-style ports) are connected to the bus
with a 24 AWG, 4-pair cable that terminates at both ends with an
RJ-45 modular connector (Figure 4-5 on page 21). The NS Series

WIRING
Network Sensors are connected to the bus with 24 or 26 AWG,
3-pair cable that terminates with an RJ-12 modular connector
(Figure 4-5 on page 21). The 3-pair cable (six conductors) is used,
even though the SA Bus requires only four conductors because
two of the wire pairs are run in parallel to provide additional power Figure 4-4: TP600 LanRoamerPRO
capacity on the cable. Cable Tester

RJ-12 connectors are smaller than the RJ-45 connectors


(Figure 4-5 on page 21), and RJ-12 connectors are less likely to be
damaged when pulled though 1/2 in. EMT conduit. RJ-45
connector applications typically require 3/4 in. EMT conduit
raceways.
RJ-11 vs. RJ-12 Modular Connectors
There is a difference between RJ-11 and RJ-12 modular
connectors, even though RJ-12 connectors are sometimes
referred to as RJ-11 connectors. RJ-11 connectors may be applied
to 1-, 2-, or 3-pair preconfigured cables, whereas RJ-12
connectors are typically applied to just 3-pair cables. A RJ-12
connector may be referred to a RJ-11 3-pair connector.
Regardless, always verify the RJ-style connector, the cable wire Figure 4-5: RJ-12 and RJ-45 Modular
gauge, and the number of wire pairs before applying the cable and Connectors
connectors to your network sensor bus application.

Ethernet Network Overview and Rules


The wired Ethernet network is the primary communication backbone for the Metasys system extended
architecture. It carries all types of communication, including shared point and control information, database
uploads and downloads, commands to field equipment, summaries, and alarms. (For information about how the
Ethernet is used on a wireless network, refer to the particular Metasys wireless component document.)
Ethernet technology uses the industry standard UDP service provided by the TCP/IP and works with single or
multiple segment LANs. Ethernet is defined by the IEEE 802.3 specification.
Ethernet components on the Metasys network include the ADS/ADX computer and supervisory controllers,
including NAEs, NCEs, NIEs, and NCMs (Figure 5-1 on page 25). In addition, hubs, switches, and routers are used
to extend the network to support additional nodes. These components can be either dedicated for Metasys system
use or shared with other customer-supplied systems.
Ethernet communications allow for Metasys supervisory components to communicate over a high-speed local area
network at speeds up to 100 Mb/s using UTP cable. Several categories of twisted-pair cables exist. The tighter the
twisting, the higher the supported transmission rate and the greater the cost per foot. Category 3 has a very low
number of twists and is rated up to 10 Mbs. Category 5 has a much higher number of twists and is rated up to 100
Mbs. Category 5e (e = enhanced) has a more stringent standard and is capable of speeds up to 1,000 Mbs
(Gigabit Ethernet). The most frequently used type of cable today is Category 5e, but the Category 6 standard is
now officially part of the 568A standard and Category 7 cable is soon to become a standard as well.
An 8-pin RJ-45 network jack located on each supervisory device connects the node to the network.
For NAEs, NCEs, NIEs, and NCMs, a flickering Ethernet LED indicates the presence of network activity. For
computers, activity is often shown by an LED at the network jack. When no Ethernet traffic is occurring or the LAN
cable is disconnected, the LED is off.

For most installations, Ethernet nodes are connected to a LAN jack on the wall or to a network hub or switch that is
connected to the building network. Anywhere down the line, there might be repeaters, hubs, and switches. The IT
department at the job site is responsible for the building network and should be consulted when adding network
components. See Table 5-1 on page 26 for Ethernet Network rules.

Wiring the Ethernet Network


IMPORTANT: Do not apply power to the Metasys network before finishing communication wiring and checking
all wiring connections. Short-circuited or improperly connected wires may result in permanent damage to the
equipment.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring in accordance with local, national, and regional
regulations. Do not exceed the electrical ratings for the devices on the Metasys network.

IMPORTANT: Do not run network communication cables in the same conduit, raceway, or panel with any high-
voltage (>30 VAC) wiring. Isolate all network devices from high-voltage wiring and equipment. Failure to isolate
network wiring and network devices from high-voltage wiring and equipment can result in damage to network
devices or poor network performance.

IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge to the network wiring and network devices. Static electric
discharge can damage the network devices and void any warranties.

IMPORTANT: Always consult with the customer’s Network IT department before installing Metasys Ethernet
components. Other online systems may be affected, so close coordination with the IT department is very
important. For more information, refer to the Network and IT Guidance for the BAS Professional Technical
Bulletin (LIT-12011279).

IMPORTANT: Do not deform, do not bend, do not stretch, and do not staple Ethernet cables. Also, do not run
Ethernet cables parallel to power cables, and do not run Ethernet cables near noise inducing components.

IMPORTANT: It is very important that you maintain the pairing of conductors. For details, see Figure 5-2 on
page 27 and terminate per the appropriate standard.

General Ethernet Wiring Guidelines


Observe the following when installing and wiring Ethernet nodes:
• Do not run cables near moving parts. Avoid sharp bends, abrasion, and the potential for severing or crushing
the cable.
• Route cables neatly to promote good ventilation, visibility, testing, and ease of service.
• Provide some slack in the wires and cables to allow for access and servicing.
• Protect, coil, and secure any excess cable.
• If using a crimping tool to attach RJ-45 connectors to cable, follow proper techniques. Assure that all wires are
fully inserted into the connector in the proper positions and that they are securely crimped.

26 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


ETHER
NET
• Make sure that RJ-45 connectors are fully inserted into the LAN jack of the device.
• Use dedicated transformers for 24 VAC supply power to the network devices or provide surge protection on the
primary side of the 24 VAC supply power transformers to isolate the network devices from inductive surges or
spikes.
• Take extra care when installing and servicing components on an online Ethernet network. The network may
include dedicated systems with other controllers, engines, and workstations that are not part of the current
project being installed. Accidental shutdown of these systems can have severe repercussions; therefore, be
sure that your actions do not adversely affect their operation.
• No more than 12.7 mm (1/2 in.) of the Ethernet cable should be untwisted; otherwise, it can be susceptible to
crosstalk.
The standard UTP Ethernet
cable termination is RJ-45. RJ-45 Plug

the cable pinouts for that type of Pin 1

Ethernet Cable
Termination Instructions
Follow these steps when Figure 5-2: Ethernet Cable RJ-45 Pinout Detail
terminating UTP Ethernet cable:
1. Pull the cable to the desired locations. If you are pulling cables through holes or raceways, it is easier to attach
the RJ-45 plugs after the cable is pulled. The total length of wire segments between an ADS/ADX computer or
supervisory controller and a hub, or between two ADS/ADX computers or supervisory controllers, cannot
exceed 100 m (330 ft).
2. Start on one end and strip the cable jacket off an appropriate amount. Be extra careful not to nick the wires;
otherwise, you need to re-strip.

Ethernet Network Guidelines: Section 5 27


ETHER
NET

3. Spread and then untwist the pairs. Arrange the wires in the order of the desired cable end (Figure 5-2 on
page 27), and then flatten the end between your thumb and forefinger.
Note: A crimper is required to terminate the wires to an RJ-45 connector. For most crimpers, you need to trim
the ends of the wires so they are even with one another, leaving only 12.7 mm (1/2 in.) wire length. If longer
than 12.7 mm (1/2 in.), the length is out-of-spec and susceptible to crosstalk. The crimper Johnson Controls
recommends does not require this 12.7 mm (1/2 in.) length limitation. (See Crimping Tool on page 28).
4. Hold the RJ-45 plug with the clip facing down or away from you. Push the wires firmly into the plug. Be sure
that each wire is flat and even at the front of the plug. Check the order of the wires. Check again before
crimping.
5. Verify that the jacket is fitted up against the stop of the plug. Carefully hold the wire and use the crimper to
firmly crimp the wires into the RJ-45 connector.
6. Check the color orientation and make sure that the crimped connection is not about to come apart. Verify that
the wires are flat against the front of the plug. If just one of these wires is incorrect, you need to start over and
recrimp.
7. Test the Ethernet cable. Record test results if requested by the customer.
Use of Straight-through and Crossover Ethernet Cables
A straight-through Ethernet cable terminates identically on each end (Figure 5-3 on page 28). In Ethernet
connections, this type of cable is often called a patch cord. A crossover cable however, terminates differently on
each end. It connects two Ethernet devices without a hub or connects two hubs. For this cable, the orange set of
wires on one end are switched with the green set (for either 568 standard).
Crimping Tool
The recommended crimping tool for installing RJ-45 connectors is the EZ-RJ45 Crimper manufactured by Bomar
Interconnect Products, Inc. and available from Anixter. (See the Installation Specifications on page 30 section for
contact information.) This tool, when used with Bomar connectors, allows the wires to pass entirely through the
connector, crimps the connector, and trims the excessive wire in a single operation. Use this tool to help eliminate
RJ termination errors.
LAN Cable Testers
LAN Cable testers are helpful when testing Ethernet connections for use on the Metasys network. The most
common errors seen are improper termination and wire length. Several industry standard tools are available that
test for both of these conditions. The 620 LAN CableMeter tester from Fluke or the Fluke MicroScanner Pro tester
are excellent choices for checking CAT5 cable (distance and wire mapping). Another, less expensive alternative is
the TP600 LanRoamerPRO cable tester by Test Um Incorporated. (Also known as the LanRoverPRO TP600.)
If you need to validate terminations only, many inexpensive RJ45 cable testers are also available. Many local
electronic and hardware stores offer these testers. An example is the Triplett WireMaster XR-2.

ETHER
NET
Note: To create a crossover cable between two computers, simply swap the Transmit and Receive pairs on one
end, maintaining end-to-end polarity.
Note: Also, both the blue and brown wire pairs on Pins 4, 5, 7, and 8 are not used in either standard. Even though
Pins 4, 5, 7, and 8 are not used or required on many networks, terminate all four pairs because the cable is a
standard and some network systems may require these pairs.
Consistent Media
The specific environment and application must be evaluated when selecting a media type. Where possible, use
one type of media to avoid having to meet the different installation, maintenance, and test equipment requirements
that are unique to each media. Hardware connections and special equipment associated with each media can
further complicate network management and maintenance. For example, an installation requiring 500 feet of UTP
cable would be better served by installing a switch (when accessible) between NAEs instead of switching the
media to another type.
Cable and Hardware Accessibility
Accessing the network cable and hardware is necessary for maintaining and expanding the network. To simplify
future cable alterations, install a generously sized conduit for network cables in the walls.
Each type of media has length restrictions. For any one segment, avoid running cable beyond 80 percent of the
allotted cable length. Use additional hardware rather than have segments that exceed cable limits. Maximum cable
length is media specific and is covered in multiple sections of this handbook.
Number of Nodes
Other key LAN installation and design factors are the maximum number of Metasys and Ethernet nodes, as well as
the maximum length of cable for each N1 segment. Up to 100 Metasys nodes can reside on an Ethernet network,
with a maximum segment length of 100 m (330 ft) when UTP cable is used.
Extending Ethernet between Buildings
Avoid copper conductors when routing Ethernet between buildings. The electrical disturbances caused by lightning
and naturally occurring differences in ground potential over distance can quickly cause considerable damage to
equipment and people. Instead, to eliminate network cabling as a safety risk, use fiber-optic cabling between
buildings whenever possible. Also, various wireless media are available for building links; however, wireless media
is much less reliable than fiber-optic media, and should only be considered when it is impossible or impractical to
get right-of-way for installation of fiber-optic cable.

3. Place battery in the compartment Figure 6-3: NAE and NAE Data Protection Battery
(Figure 6-3 on page 37).
4. Slide one end of the battery strap into the hole in the other tape (Figure 6-3 on page 37), and fasten the hook
and loop tape tightly around the battery to minimize battery movement.

IMPORTANT: Do not apply 24 VAC power to the NAE55/NIE55 before installing the data protection battery.

5. Replace the cover of the battery compartment and apply 24 VAC power to the NAE55/NIE55 immediately.

IMPORTANT: If you are using an NAE55xx-0 or NIE55xx-0 model, the data protection battery must maintain a
small residual charge. The battery ships from the factory with a small residual charge, and you should connect
24 VAC power to the NAE55/NIE55 immediately after connecting the battery to ensure that the battery does not
completely lose its charge, which may damage the battery. If you are using a -1 model, battery draining when
the power is off does not cause a problem.

Note: The 24 VAC power to the NAE55/NIE55 charges the data protection battery. At initial startup, the battery
requires a charging period of at least 2 hours before it supports data protection if power fails. Maximum protection
(up to three consecutive power failures without recharging time) requires a 24-hour charging period.
Addressing an NAE55/NIE55
Assign the NAE Computer Name (host name) and the IP address in the Metasys Site Management Portal UI
(software) via a laptop computer or desktop computer. The Metasys system automatically assigns the appropriate
device address for the NAE on the field bus. Refer to the NAE Commissioning Guide (LIT-1201519) for more
information on the Computer Name and IP address.

information on setting the EOL termination switch.

NAE_EOL
The NAE55 has two EOL switch blocks (one for each FC
Bus port) that enable/disable the NAE55 as a network 1 2
terminated device. Set an NAE55 as a terminated device
on an FC Bus by positioning both of the switches on the

EOL switch block ON (Figure 6-4 on page 38). NAE55s are
Switches in the (Default) ON Position
shipped with the EOL switches in the ON position for both
FC ports.
Powering On the NAE55/NIE55
After applying 24 VAC power, the NAE55/NIE55 requires up to 5 minutes to start up and become operational. See
the NAE55 LED Test Sequence at Startup on page 38 section.
Startup is complete and the NAE55/NIE55 is operational when the (green) RUN LED is On steady and the (red)
GEN FAULT LED is Off. See Figure 6-5 on page 38 for LED locations.
Disconnecting Power from the NAE55/NIE55
IMPORTANT: Turn on the NAE/NIE to charge the data protection battery. Apply 24 VAC to change the battery.

The 24 VAC supply power is disconnected from the NAE by removing the terminal block plug from the power
terminal port on the NAE (Figure 6-2 on page 36).
When the 24 VAC supply power to the NAE is disconnected or lost, the NAE is nonoperational. The POWER LED
remains On, and the data protection battery continues to power the NAE for several (1 to 8) minutes to back up
volatile data in nonvolatile memory. The POWER LED goes Off when the data backup is completed.

IMPORTANT: Disconnect the data protection battery (after the POWER LED goes Off) whenever the NAE55/
NIE55’s 24 VAC power supply is disconnected for more than 48 hours. If a -0 model is used, an unpowered NAE
depletes the battery charge, and complete loss of charge may damage the data protection battery.

NAE55 LED Status Indicators


The NAE55 has 11 LEDs to indicate power and
communication status. Figure 6-5 on page 38 shows the POWER
LEDs and Table 6-2 on page 39 describes their ETHERNET
meaning. 10/LINK

(Green) NAE, but none are communicating (NAE transmitting only).
Flicker = Normal communications; FC A port is transmitting and receiving data.
Flickers are generally in sync with data transmission but should not be used to
indicate specific transmission times.
Off Steady = No field controllers are defined to FC A (FC Bus 1 or N2 Trunk 1)
in the NAE.
FC-B (NAE55 only) Flicker On Steady = Controllers are defined to FC-B (FC Bus 2 or N2 Trunk 2) in the
(Green) NAE, but none are communicating (NAE transmitting only).
Flicker = Normal communications; FC B port is transmitting and receiving data.
Flickers are generally in sync with data transmission but should not be used to
indicate specific transmission times.
Off Steady = No field controllers are defined to FC B (FC Bus 2 or N2 Trunk 2)
in the NAE.
PEER COMM (Green) Varies (see Flicker = Data traffic between NAE devices. For an NAE that is not a Site
next column) Director, this LED indicates regular heartbeat communications with the Site
Director. For a Site Director NAE, flashes are more frequent and indicate
heartbeat communications from all other NAE devices on the site. For a single
NAE on a network without an Application and Data Server (ADS), there is no
flicker.
Run (Green) On Steady On Steady = NAE software is running.
On 1 second, Off 1 second = NAE software is in startup mode.
On 0.5 seconds, Off 0.5 seconds = NAE software is shutting down.
Off Steady = Operating system is shutting down or software is not running.
24 VAC (Green) On Steady On Steady = 24 VAC power is present.
Off Steady = Loss of 24 VAC power. In the Off Steady condition, the NAE can
be running on battery power. Also see the POWER LED.
BATT FAULT (Red) Off Steady On Steady = Battery fault. Replace the battery. Battery not connected or
cannot be charged. The BATT FAULT LED may remain On for up to 24 hours
after initially powering-on the NAE. If the BATT FAULT LED remains on longer
than 48 hours after initially powering-on the NAE, check the battery connection
or replace the battery.
GENL FAULT (Red) Off Steady On Steady = General Fault. Fault conditions are user configurable in software.
Preconfigured fault conditions include excessive Central Processing Unit
(CPU), flash or memory use, excessive CPU or Printed Wire Board (PWB)
temperature, or Battery Fault. In normal operation, the GENL FAULT LED
stays on steady for the first half of the startup sequence.

System Re-Boot Switch


The System Re-Boot switch (Figure 6-7 on page 40) forces a manual restart of the NAE55/NIE55 processor. All
data changes made to the system since the last time the NAE55/NIE55 saved data are lost on restart, including
alarm, trend, and audit trail data.

IMPORTANT: Press the System Re-Boot switch only if the NAE55/NIE55 fails to respond and cannot be
accessed by any user device. Do not press the System Re-Boot switch unless you have tried other reasonable
means to fix the problem.

Application
The NAE35 and NAE45 are Web-enabled, Ethernet-based supervisory devices that monitor and control networks
of field-level building automation devices, HVAC equipment and lighting.
The NCM45 is a supervisory controller that emulates the NCM350/361, yet uses the same hardware platform as
the NAE45. The NCM45 Series has two basic models: an N2 Bus model and a LONWORKS Network model. In this
document, NCM or NCM45 refers to either model.

The data protection battery slowly loses charge when 24 VAC power is removed from the NAE35/45 and NCM45. If
the battery completely loses charge, the NAE35/45 and NCM45 real-time clock stops.
Whenever an NAE35/45 and NCM45 is disconnected from 24 VAC power for over 30 days, ensure that the real-
time clock is set properly and that the NAE35/45 and NCM45 is powered long enough to recharge the data
protection battery.
Powering On the NAE35/45 and NCM45

NAE35/45
NCM45
After applying 24 VAC power, the NAE35/45 and NCM45 requires up to 3 minutes to start up and become
operational. See LED Test Sequence at Startup for NAE on page 49.
Startup is complete and the NAE35/45 and NCM45 is operational when the (green) RUN LED is On Steady and the
(red) FAULT LED is Off (Figure 7-3 on page 49).

IMPORTANT: Wait for the NAE to complete the start-up sequence and the RUN LED to go On Steady before
initiating any other action on the NAE. If you are installing an NCM4500 that has no database (fresh from the
factory), the RUN LED blinks and does not go On Steady.

Disconnecting Power from the NAE35/45 and NCM45


When 24 VAC supply power to an NAE35/45 and NCM45 is disconnected or lost, the NAE35/45 and NCM45 is
non-operational, but the POWER LED (Figure 7-3 on page 49) remains On and the data protection battery
continues to power the NAE35/45 and NCM45 for several (1 to 5) minutes while volatile data is backed up in
nonvolatile memory. The RUN LED goes Off when data backup and shutdown are complete.

IMPORTANT: The data protection battery must be installed and charged before disconnecting the 24 VAC
supply power.

Setting the EOL Switch


See EOL Termination on the MS/TP Bus on page 81 and EOL Termination Across the N2 Bus on page 179 for
information on setting the EOL termination switch.
Addressing an NAE35/NAE45/NCM45
Assign the NAE/NCM Computer Name (host name) and the IP address in the Metasys UI (software) via a laptop
computer or desktop computer. The Metasys system automatically assigns the appropriate device address for the
NAE on the FC Bus or provides identification for the NCM on the N2 Bus. Refer to the NAE Commissioning Guide
(LIT-1201519) for more information on the NAE Computer Name and IP address. See Related Documentation on
page 52.
LED Status Indicators

that these LEDs are operational.
2. The BATT FAULT LED shuts Off and the POWER, FAULT, PEER COM, and RUN LEDs remain On. The 10
LINK or 100 LINK LED turns On to indicate the speed of the connected network.
3. After a few minutes, all LEDs except POWER turn Off for about 2 seconds as the LED software driver is
initialized.
4. Then, the RUN LED and the 10 LINK LED turn On again. The RUN LED blinks to indicate that the NCM
software is starting up. The ETHERNET LED blinks to indicate network traffic.
5. Lastly, the RUN LED goes On Steady to indicate startup is complete. Also, the POWER and the 10 LINK or 100
LINK LEDS remain On, and the ETHERNET LED and FC Bus or LON LED blink.

Setup and Adjustments


Data Protection Battery
The NCE25 ships with the data protection battery installed and connected. Do not disconnect the battery for any
reason other than to replace a defective battery. The 24 VAC supply power to the NCE25 charges the data
protection battery. At initial startup, the battery may require a charging period of at least 4 hours before it supports
data protection if power fails. Maximum protection (up to three consecutive power failures without recharging time)
requires a 15-hour charging period.
The data protection battery slowly loses charge when 24 VAC power is removed from the NCE25. If the battery
completely loses charge, the NCE25 real-time clock stops.
Whenever an NCE25 is disconnected from 24 VAC power for over 30 days, ensure that the real-time clock is set
properly and that the NCE25 is powered long enough to recharge the data protection battery.
Powering On the NCE25
After applying 24 VAC power, the NCE25 requires up to 3 minutes to start up and become operational. See LED
Test Sequence at Startup for NCE on page 62.

NCE25 Series Network Controllers: Section 8 61


Startup is complete and the NCE25 is operational when the (green) RUN LED is On Steady and the (red) FAULT
LED is Off (Figure 8-5 on page 62).

IMPORTANT: Wait for the NCE to complete the start-up sequence and the RUN LED to go On Steady before
initiating any other action on the NCE.

Disconnecting Power from the NCE25


When 24 VAC supply power to an NCE25 is disconnected or lost, the NCE25 is not operational, but the POWER
LED (Figure 8-5 on page 62) remains On and the data protection battery continues to power the NCE25 for several
(1 to 5) minutes while volatile data is backed up in nonvolatile memory. The RUN LED goes Off when data backup
and shutdown are complete.
NCE25

IMPORTANT: The data protection battery must be installed and charged before disconnecting the 24 VAC
supply power.

Setting the EOL Switch


See EOL Termination on the MS/TP Bus on page 81 and EOL Termination Across the N2 Bus on page 179 for
information on setting the EOL termination switch.
Setting Device Addresses
The NCE25 is always the SA Bus supervisor and, therefore, always has a fixed device address of 0 on the SA Bus.
The supervisory controller on NCE25 models that support an (MS/TP) FC Bus is always an FC Bus supervisor and
has a fixed device address of 0 on the FC Bus. The field controllers in all the NCE25 models have fixed device
addresses of 4 on the NCE FC Bus.
Refer to the MS/TP Communications Bus Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011034) for more information on device
addresses on (MS/TP) FC Buses and SA Buses.
NCE25 models that support an N2 Bus are always bus supervisors on the N2 Bus, and they do not require a user
assigned device address to communicate on the N2 Bus.
NCE25 models that support a LONWORKS network trunk have a unique LONWORKS address that is factory-assigned
as part of the integral LONWORKS Neuron chip on the NCE252x Type models. You do not need to assign a
LONWORKS device address to an NCE25 on LONWORKS applications.
Display Screen and Display Navigation Keypad
Specified NCE25 models feature an integral display screen and display navigation keypad that allow you to view
and edit the I/O points settings on the NCE25 (Figure 8-1 on page 55). Refer to the DIS1710 Local Controller
Display Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011270) for more information on using the display screen and navigation keypad.
LED Status Indicators
The NCE25 models have up to 11 LEDs (depending on The FC BUS LED is labeled
the model) to indicate power and network LON on NCE25 models that
communication status. Figure 8-5 on page 62 and support a LONWORKS Network.
Figure 8-5 on page 62 show the LEDs. Table 8-3 on
page 63 describes the LED indications.
Note: Some of the LEDs shown in Figure 8-5 on
page 62 are not used or displayed on some NCE
The MODEM LEDs are not
models. provided on NCE25 models
without an internal modem.
LED Test Sequence at Startup for NCE
FIG_NCE_LEDS

During startup, the NCE automatically initiates an LED


test to verify the operational status of the LEDs.
Immediately after connecting supply power, the
following LED lighting sequence occurs: Figure 8-5: NCE25 LED Designations
1. The POWER, BATT FAULT, 10 LINK, FAULT, RUN,
and PEER COM LEDs turn On, indicating that the
OS is starting. (After 2 seconds, the LEDs may change states depending on site-specific network activity.)

2. The BATT FAULT, PEER COM, and FAULT LEDs shut Off. The RUN LED flashes to indicate that the NCE
software is loading.
3. The LEDs display the operational status of the NCE. When the RUN LED goes On Steady, startup is complete
and the NCE is operational.
The total time to start up the NCE25 depends on the size of the database and can take several minutes.
Refer to the NCE Commissioning Guide (LIT-1201519) for additional information on troubleshooting an NCE.

SECVT Serial N2 to Ethernet Converter
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
The SECVT, in conjunction with a supported NAE (MS-NAE5512-x and MS-NAE5513-x models), enables N2
tunneling over Ethernet on Metasys system extended architecture networks. The SECVT (with a supported NAE)
allows you to connect remote N2 devices to the NAE using existing Ethernet wiring, which is cost-effective when it
is difficult to route N2 Bus cable between the NAE and remote N2 devices.

IMPORTANT: The SECVT is not designed or intended for use in mission-critical or life/safety applications.

Mounting
See General Guidelines for Locating and Mounting Controllers on page 14 and Mounting Metasys System
Controllers on page 15 for mounting guidelines.

IMPORTANT: The SECVT is commissioned and its IP address is set with software. Verify that the SECVT IP

SECVT
address has been set and is written on the cover before installing the SECVT. Failure to commission and set the
IP address on the SECVT before it is installed may require removing, commissioning, and reinstalling the
SECVT.

IMPORTANT: Before using the SECVT for plenum applications, verify acceptance of exposed plastic materials
in plenum areas with the local building authority. Building codes for plenum requirements vary by location. Some
local building authorities accept compliance to UL 1995, Heating and Cooling Equipment, whereas others use
different acceptance criteria. Metal enclosures may be required.

Special Tools Needed


To mount the SECVT, you need three fasteners appropriate for the mounting surface (#8 or M4 screws) or one
20.3 cm (8 in.) or longer piece of DIN rail and appropriate hardware for mounting the DIN rail.
Wiring
See General Guidelines for Wiring Metasys System Networks on page 17 for general wiring guidelines.
Observe the following guidelines and procedures when wiring the SECVT.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the building automation network wiring meets the specifications, rules, and guidelines
in N2 Communications Bus Guidelines on page 173 and Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors on page 17.

Ethernet Port
The (10 or 100 Mbps) Ethernet connection on the SECVT is an 8-pin RJ-45 network port. Connect the Ethernet
communication cable to the RJ-45, 8-pin Ethernet port shown in Figure 9-1 on page 68.

BACnet MS/TP Bus Overview


The Metasys BACnet MS/TP Communications Bus is based on BACnet standard protocol SSPC-135, Clause 9.
BACnet MS/TP protocol is peer-to-peer, multiple master protocol based on token passing. The FC Bus port on an
NAE/NCE can support an MS/TP FC Bus or an N2 Bus, but not both at the same time. NAE55xx models with two
FC Bus ports can support an MS/TP FC Bus on one port and an N2 Bus on the other FC Bus port.

IMPORTANT: Do not connect MS/TP devices and N2 devices to the same bus. MS/TP Communications
Buses follow different protocol and wiring rules from N2 Communications Buses, and MS/TP devices and N2
devices are not compatible on the same bus.

A BACnet MS/TP bus supports two types/levels of buses: FC Bus and SA Bus. See Figure 10-1 on page 73 and
Figure 10-2 on page 74.
NAEs/NCEs have FC Bus connections and are FC Bus supervisors. NCEs, FECs and VMAs have both FC Bus
and SA Bus connections and can be SA Bus supervisors. The IOMs can connect to either an FC Bus or an SA
Bus, but IOMs are never bus supervisors.
The FC Buses and the SA Buses are networks of daisy-chained devices. Each bus has only one bus supervisor.
The bus supervisor communicates with devices on the supervised bus and with the next (higher level) bus on the
network. The bus supervisor typically starts the communication on the FC Bus and SA Bus. If an SA Bus or FC Bus
does not have a bus supervisor, the device with the lowest device address value on the bus starts the
communication.

FC Bus Rules and Specifications
An FC Bus supports up to three bus segments, and each bus segment can support up to 50 Metasys devices, but
the total number of Metasys devices on an FC Bus can not exceed 100. Figure 10-3 on page 76 shows an FC Bus
with bus segments. Table 10-1 on page 75 and Table 10-2 on page 76 provide some of the FC Bus rules, limits,
and specifications.
Table 10-1: FC Bus Rules
Category Rules/Limits
General NAE55 Series models can support up to two FC Buses1.
NAE45 Series models can support one FC Bus1.
NAE35 Series models can support one FC Bus1 (but an NAE35 FC Bus supports only 1/2 the
number of devices that are supported on an FC Bus on an NAE45 or NAE55).
NCE25 Series models can support one FC Bus1.
Note: An FC port on an NAE/NCE can connect to only one bus segment on an FC Bus.
Only a daisy-chain topology is allowed (no T or Star topology configurations)
Number of Devices and When all of the devices connected on the FC Bus are Metasys FECs, VMAs,
Bus Segments and/or IOMs, the device and bus segment limits are:
• 100 devices total per FC Bus (maximum)
• 3 bus segments per FC Bus (maximum)
• 50 devices per bus segment (maximum, not to exceed 100 devices per FC Bus)
When one or more TEC26xx Series thermostat or third-party MS/TP device is connected
on the FC Bus, the device and bus segment limits are:
• 64 devices total per FC Bus (maximum)
• 3 bus segments per FC Bus (maximum)
• 32 devices per bus segment (maximum, not to exceed 64 devices per FC Bus)
Bus segments on an FC Bus are connected with repeaters (only). Up to two cascaded repeaters
may be applied to an FC Bus (to connect three bus segments).
Cable Length for FC When all of the devices connected on the FC Bus are Metasys FECs, VMAs,
Bus and Bus and/or IOMs, the cable length limits are:
Segments2 • Each bus segment can be up to 1,520 m (5,000 ft) in length (using 22 AWG 3-wire twisted,
shielded cable).
• Each FC Bus can be up to 4,750 m (15,000 ft) in length (using 22 AWG 3-wire twisted,
shielded cable).
When one or more TEC26xx Series thermostat or third-party MS/TP device is connected
on the FC Bus, the device and bus segment limits are:
• Each bus segment can be up to 1,220 m (4,000 ft) in length (using 22 AWG 3-wire twisted,
shielded cable)3
• Each FC Bus can be up to 3,660 m (12,000 ft) in length (using 22 AWG 3-wire twisted,
shielded cable).
When using fiber-optic connections: 2,010 m (6,600 ft)2 between two fiber modems
Recommended 22 AWG Stranded, 3-Wire Twisted, Shielded Cable
Cable Type4
EOL Termination The EOL switch must be set to On (or an EOL terminator installed) on the two devices located at
either end of each bus segment on an FC Bus.
The EOL switches must be set to Off (or EOL termination disabled) for all other devices on the
bus segment on an FC Bus.
See EOL Termination on the FC Bus on page 82 for more information.
1. Refer to the Network Automation Engine (NAE) Product Bulletin (LIT-1201160) and the Network Control Engine (NCE)
Product Bulletin (LIT-12011283) for complete information on MS/TP Bus support on NAE/NCE models.
2. See Table 10-3 on page 77 for more detail on supported cable lengths and gauges.
3. If third-party devices are connected to the bus, the cable lengths should be reduced (if necessary) to match the third-party
vendor recommendations.
4. The recommended cable type provides the best bus performance. See MS/TP Bus Cable Recommendations on page 86
for information on alternative cable types and lengths that may be used in MS/TP applications.

Note: Metasys MS/TP devices generate less data traffic than third-party MS/TP devices and TEC26xx
thermostats. Connecting third-party devices or TEC26xx thermostats to the FC Bus increases data traffic, reduces
bus performance, and reduces the number of devices that can be connected to the bus.

When a TEC26xx Series thermostat terminates an FC Bus bus-segment, an EOL Terminator module must be
wired to the FC Bus terminals on the TEC26xx thermostat.
Third-party MS/TP devices should not terminate an FC Bus bus-segment unless the third-party device’s EOL
termination capability is disabled and an EOL Terminator module is wired to the bus segment at the third-party
device. See EOL Termination on the MS/TP Bus on page 81 for more information.
SA Bus Rules and Specifications
The SA Bus connects input/output point controllers and network sensors to field controllers. An SA Bus is a single
segment bus that can support up to 10 devices (but an SA Bus can support only four NS Series network sensors).
Figure 10-4 on page 78 shows a simple SA Bus. Table 10-3 on page 77 and Table 10-4 on page 78 provide SA
Bus rules, limits, and specifications.
For more information on terminating the SA Bus, see EOL Termination on the SA Bus on page 84.
Table 10-3: SA Bus Rules
Category Rules/Limits
General Each bus supervisor supports one SA Bus (and each SA Bus is a single segment).
Number of Devices An SA Bus supports up to 10 devices.
Supported on the Bus Note: Only four NS sensor addresses are available for use on an SA Bus. In addition, the SA
Bus supervisor provides power for NS network sensors and some of the other devices
connected on the bus. Exceeding the SA bus power limit can result in devices going offline and
poor bus performance. See SA Bus Device Limits on page 79 for more information on SA Bus
power limits.
SA Buses do not support repeaters.
Cable Length 365 m (1,200 ft) maximum bus length
152 m (500 ft) maximum distance between an NS network sensor and the bus supervisor (FEC
or VMA supplying power to the sensor) using bus cable connected to the SA Bus screw
terminal blocks
30 m (100 ft) maximum length for network sensors using bus cables connected to the RJ-Style
modular jack (6-Pin SA Bus Port)
366 m (1,200 ft) maximum Bus Length
Recommended Screw Terminal Connections: 22 AWG Stranded 4-wire, 2-Twisted Pairs, Shielded Cable for
Cable Type1 screw terminals
Modular Jack Connections: 6-Pin RJ-Style Modular Connectors with 24 or 26 AWG Solid
6-Wire, 3-Twisted Pairs
EOL Termination Each SA Bus supervisor has integral (fixed ON) EOL termination, which typically provides
sufficient EOL termination on an SA Bus. Long SA Bus runs or persistent communication
problems on an SA Bus may require EOL termination at the last device on the SA Bus (in
addition to the integral EOL termination at the SA Bus supervisor).

SA Bus Device Limits
The SA Bus is limited to 10 devices total to ensure good communication on the bus and is limited to four NS
sensors because only four unique addresses can be set on the sensors.
The SA Bus is also limited by the total power consumption of the devices connected on the bus. See Table 10-5 on
page 79 for the power consumption of devices commonly connected to the SA Bus.

IMPORTANT: The total power consumption on an SA Bus is limited; do not exceed the SA Bus power
consumption limit. Exceeding the total power consumption limit can cause poor bus communication and devices
to go offline.

Table 10-5: Power Consumption by Common SA Bus Devices


SA Bus Device Power Consumption on the SA Bus
Discharge Air Sensors (NS-DTN70x3-0) 12 mA
Balancing Sensors (NS-xTV70x3-0) 12 mA
Network Sensors without display 13 mA
Network Sensors with display no RH 21 mA
Network Sensors with display and RH 27 mA
ZFR1811 Wireless Field Bus Router 90 mA
DIS1710 Local Controller Display 90 mA - may be a temporary load
BTCVT Wireless Commissioning Converter 90 mA - temporary load
Variable Speed Drives NA (self-powered)
IOM Series Controllers NA (self-powered)
Romutec Modules (Europe only) NA (self-powered)

SA Bus applications are limited to a temporary power load of 210 mA.


The best practice when configuring an SA Bus is to limit the total available operating power consumption to 120 mA
or less. This power level allow you to temporarily connect a BTCVT Wireless Commissioning Converter or a
DIS1710 Local Controller Display to the bus for commissioning, adjusting, and monitoring.
On SA Bus application where a DIS1710 display or ZFR1811 Wireless Field Bus Router is permanently connected
to the bus, you should limit the additional available operating power consumption to 30 mA, to allow for the
temporary use of a Wireless Commissioning Converter on the bus.

SA Buses with Multiple Network Sensors


The SA Bus supports up to four NS Series network sensors. Table 10-5 on page 80 shows an example of two SA
Buses, each with four network sensors. To place multiple network sensors on the SA Bus, three of the network
sensors must be switch addressable models (Product Code No. NS-ATN7003-0 or NS-BTN7003-0).

EOL Termination on the MS/TP Bus
End-of-Line termination is required on all FC Buses and SA Buses to reduce signal reflection on the bus, which can
cause communication problems. The FC Bus and SA Bus have different EOL termination requirements. See EOL
Termination on the FC Bus on page 82 and EOL Termination on the SA Bus on page 84 for more information.
Repeaters and third-party devices have different EOL termination capabilities and requirements, see EOL
Terminator Module on page 83 and EOL Termination on Bus Repeaters on page 84 for more information.
EOL termination is built into most Metasys MS/TP devices. EOL termination on the FC Bus is enabled with a switch
on the device (Figure 10-6 on page 81). EOL termination on the SA Bus is fixed On on the bus supervisor.

Figure 10-6: MS/TP Controllers Set as EOL Termination Devices

Enabling EOL Termination on MS/TP Bus Devices


NAEs, NCEs, FECs, and VMAs have switch-enabled EOL termination on the FC Bus (only).
FECs or VMAs do not have switch-enabled EOL termination for the SA Bus connection. FECs or VMAs are always
bus supervisors on the SA Bus and have integral (fixed ON) SA Bus EOL termination.
IOMs can connect to either an FC Bus or SA Bus (but not both). The EOL switch on IOMs enables an IOM as an
EOL terminating device on either an FC Bus or an SA Bus.
Set the EOL switch to the ON (up) position to set the controller as an EOL terminating device on the FC Bus
(Figure 10-6 on page 81).
Note: Some NAE55xx models have two FC Bus ports (FC-A and FC-B). The two ports are independent of each
other, and each port has its own double-pole EOL switch that can enable the NAE55xx as an EOL terminating
device on the bus connected to the port. Therefore, an NAE55xx can be an EOL terminating device on one FC Bus
and a non-terminating device on the other FC Bus.

Important: Bus segmentation is determined by the location

does not determine bus segmentation. NAEs and Repeaters
can reside anywhere on a bus segment.
Each FC Bus segment must have only one hard ground connection to the cable shield, typically
accomplished at the supervisory controller. If repeaters are used, make the hard ground connection
on the side of the outgoing signal (typically side B) for each segment.

the repeater. See Scenario 4 in Figure 10-7 on page 82.

BUS
EOL Terminator Module
The MS-BACEOL-0 EOLT provides EOL termination on FC Bus segments when a device at the end of a bus
segment does not have integral EOL termination capability. An EOLT is required in all Metasys MS/TP
applications wherever the device at the end of an FC Bus segment does not have integral EOL termination; for
example, TEC26xx Series thermostats.
The EOLT is designed for Metasys RS485 buses and provides better FC Bus performance than the integral EOL
termination on third-party devices. An EOLT is recommended wherever a third-party device terminates an FC Bus
segment. If the EOLT is connected to a third-party device that has integral EOL termination, the integral EOL
termination on the third-party device must be disabled.
Observe the following guidelines when wiring the
EOLT:
• The EOL terminator is designed for N2 and MS/
TP trunks on Metasys RS485 Buses. Connect
the EOL terminator to only N2 or MS/TP trunks

EOL Termination on the SA Bus


On an SA Bus, the minimum requirement is that the EOL termination must be enabled on at least one device on

however, for enhanced bus performance, it is preferable to have EOL termination enabled on the devices at each
end of the SA Bus. See Figure 10-9 on page 84 for SA Bus EOL termination scenarios.

BACnet MS/TP Communications Bus Guidelines: Section 10 85


MS/TP
BUS

Baud Rates on the MS/TP Bus


An MS/TP bus can be configured to communicate at one of four different baud rates. It is very important that all of
the devices on an MS/TP bus communicate at the same baud rate.
The baud rate setting determines the rate at which devices communicate data over the bus. For Metasys MS/TP
devices, the baud rate is set in the Metasys system software. The settings available on Metasys MS/TP devices
are 9,600; 19,200; 38,400; 76,800, and Auto.
We recommend setting all MS/TP bus supervisors to 38,400 baud.
We recommend setting all field controllers on the FC Bus (FECs, VMAs, and IOMs) to Auto. In the Auto setting, the
Metasys devices listen for the bus supervisor to communicate first, the devices then automatically set their baud
rate to the bus supervisor’s baud rate.
TEC26xx Series thermostats automatically set their baud rate to the bus supervisor’s baud rate. The baud rate
setting on bus repeaters and third-party MS/TP devices typically is configured manually at the device and the baud
rate setting must match the setting of the bus supervisor. Refer to the manufacturer’s product documentation for
information on setting the device’s baud rate.
Note: Some third-party devices do not support all four baud rates. The NAE55xx-0 models do not support
76,800 baud.
Due to the high communications data rates possible, higher baud rates require a limited range of wire gauge. There
is a relationship among the baud rate, wire gauge, wire length, and the number of devices. Higher baud rates
support more devices, but require small gauge wire (which provides lower capacitance). A lower baud rate may be
required to use existing, larger gauge wire (which has higher capacitance), but may support fewer devices. We
recommend 38,400 baud using 22 AWG stranded wire. This provides the best balance between performance and
installation sensitivity.
For more details on baud rate, wire gauge, wire length, and the number of devices, see MS/TP Bus Cable
Recommendations on page 86.
Wiring the MS/TP Bus
See General Guidelines for Wiring Metasys System Networks on page 17 for guidelines on wiring communications
buses.
MS/TP Bus Cable Recommendations
The MS/TP Bus communicates at much higher baud rates than the N2 Bus, which makes the MS/TP Bus less fault
tolerant and less immune to interference from inductive noise sources that may be present in the application
environment. Table 10-7 on page 86 provides cable recommendations for MS/TP applications. The recommended
FC Bus and SA Bus cables are available from Belden CDT Inc. and Anixter Inc.
Note: For the best performance on MS/TP bus applications, 22 AWG stranded wire in a shielded cable with
proper cable shield grounding is recommended. Other wire gauges and non-shielded cable may provide
acceptable bus performance in many applications, especially applications that have short cable runs and low
ambient inductive noise levels. See Table 10-7 on page 86 and Table 10-8 on page 87 for more information.

Recommended Acceptable
1. A 3-wire (for FC Bus) and 4-wire, 2 twisted-pair (for SA Bus), 22 AWG stranded, shielded cable is strongly recommended.
22 gauge cable offers the best performance for various baud rates, cable distances and number of trunk devices primarily
due to lower conductor-to-conductor capacitance. Shielded cable offers better overall electrical noise immunity than non-
shielded cable. Observe the shield grounding requirements.
2. 26 AWG solid, 6-wire, (3 twisted pairs) cable is recommended as the best fit for fabricating modular cables with the modular
jack housing assembly. Be sure the cable you use fits the modular jack housing. The preassembled cables that are
available from Anixter (Part No. CBL-NETWORKxxx) use 24 gauge wire.

MS/TP buses cannot support the same number of devices at every baud rate and wire gauge. See Table 10-8 on
page 87. We recommend operating the MS/TP bus at 38,400 baud.

Best Acceptable Acceptable with Possible Restrictions Not Recommended


1. The maximum number of devices is reduced at lower baud rates due to increased token loop times.
2. 3 conductor (FC Bus), 22 AWG stranded, shielded cable is recommended. 22 gauge cable offers the best performance for
various baud rates, cable distances, and number of trunk devices primarily due to lower conductor-to-conductor
capacitance. Shielded cable offers better overall electrical noise immunity than non-shielded cable.
3. The MS-NAE55xx-0 cannot communicate at 76,800 baud.

• Twist the FC Bus lead pairs together before inserting into the termination and ensure that the termination is
tight at each terminal block on the daisy-chain.
• Each FC Bus segment must have only one hard ground connection to the cable shield, typically accomplished
at the supervisory controller. If repeaters are used, make the hard ground connection on the side of the
outgoing signal (typically side B) for each segment. See EOL Termination on the FC Bus on page 82.
• Some FC Bus and vendor devices do not have a terminal connection called COM. On these devices, the

To create a soft ground connection, connect a 560 pF capacitor between the cable shield and ground. The
connection to ground should be made within the first 2 inches of entering an enclosure (Figure 10-12 on page 89).

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the cable shield is connected to hard ground at only one point on the bus
segment and is completely isolated from hard ground at all other points on the bus segment. Multiple hard
ground connections on a bus segment can create transient currents in the cable shield, which can result in poor
bus performance and frequent device offline occurrences.

Examples of potential inductive interference include large motors, contractors, relays, welding equipment, high
voltage conductors that are not in metal conduit or raceways, other high wattage devices within 10 m (30 ft) of the
bus cable, and areas of frequent lightning.
Examples of potential radio frequency interference include locations near airports hospitals, radio or television
transmission towers, police and fire stations, or factories. Mobile transmitters in police, fire, emergency, and fleet
vehicles are also potential sources of radio frequency interference.
Note: The majority of properly grounded MS/TP applications do not require soft ground connections, but you
should assess the potential interference that the application may encounter before installation. It is typically easiest
to prepare for soft ground connections when making the bus terminations at the initial installation.
Note: Soft grounds should be connected within 2 inches of the bus terminations of any bus devices that
experiences frequent offline occurrences resulting from high ambient inductive or RF interference (Figure 10-12 on
page 89).
Wiring the SA Bus
The SA Bus can connected using either a 4-wire (2-twisted pair) cable to the SA Bus (screw) terminal block or
6-wire cables with RJ-style modular jacks.
On the 4-wire (2-twisted pair) cable, the + and - wire lead are one of the twisted pairs and the SA PWR and COM
leads make up the second twisted pair.

MS/TP
BUS
MS/TP Bus Checkout and Testing
Voltage readings on the MS/TP Bus should fall within the following voltage ranges:
Table 10-10: Acceptable Voltage Ratings for the MS/TP Bus
Measurement Lower Limit Upper Limit
+ to COM 2.45 VDC 2.98 VDC
– to COM 2.06 VDC 2.54 VDC

Note: The MS/TP Bus is a token-passing network, so voltage readings may fluctuate as the token is passed
between controllers. This is normal, but the fluctuating values should still be within the range. Also, all voltage
readings change slightly when communication starts.
A bus with voltages outside of these ranges may still communicate, but may function in an impaired state. If the
number of devices or device traffic on an impaired MS/TP Bus increases, communication problems could occur.
Therefore, if your readings are not within the ranges listed in Table 10-10 on page 91, a wire is most likely
grounded, shorted, or crossed with another wire.
If you discover that the MS/TP voltages are outside the recommended ranges, you must locate and fix the problem.
In many cases, poor MS/TP voltage is caused by:
• faulty or improper End-of-Line termination or terminator (often indicated by voltage readings greater than
3 VDC, although not every EOL termination problem is indicated by high-voltage readings)
• short circuit between +, – and/or COM at some point on the bus
• + or – wire reversed on one or more field controllers; this may be the problem if you find that + to COM voltage
is lower than – to COM voltage (+ to COM voltage should always be higher).
Additional troubleshooting tips include the following:
• If the bias reading is far below expected values (for example, near 0), and you validated that the EOLs are
correctly terminated, the + is either shorted or swapped at one or more terminals (either - or Ref) at one or
more controllers.
• If the bias reading is above the expected values and you validated that the EOLs are correctly terminated, the
- and Ref wires are most likely swapped at one or more controllers.
Voltage readings may be out of the tolerances noted in Table 10-10 on page 91; this could indicate a bus
overloading condition. In this case, consider:
• decreasing your device count
• adding a repeater
• checking for noise on the bus
For additional MS/TP troubleshooting information, please contact your Regional Technical Support representative.
Surge Protection on the MS/TP Bus
One pair of surge protectors is required whenever the MS/TP Bus wire is routed outside between two buildings.
Install the protector close to the MS/TP device that first receives the bus wires from the outside (Figure 10-15 on
page 92).
The recommended surge protector is the Transient Eliminator, model TE/JC04C12, manufactured by APT. The
device protects the MS/TP Bus from indirect lightning. It shunts both common and normal mode voltage surges to
ground repeatedly without damage to MS/TP Bus components.

BACnet MS/TP Communications Bus Guidelines: Section 10 91

Do not use it with any other type wiring, such as leased line. If you need surge protection for other wire types,

ADDR
Device Addresses on the BACnet MS/TP Bus
Each device connection on a BACnet MS/TP Bus requires a device address to coordinate communication on the
bus. Each bus has a set of device addresses that is separate and independent from the device addresses on all
other buses. Devices connected to both an FC Bus and SA Bus have two different device addresses, one for each
device connection.
In the MS/TP Bus hierarchy, device connections on separate buses can have the same device address. For
example, every bus supervisor connection on an MS/TP Bus has a device address of 0 (zero), and the device
address for the first network sensor on many SA Buses is 199. Figure 11-1 on page 95 shows an example of an
MS/TP Bus and the device addresses for connections on the FC Bus and the SA Buses.

Figure 11-1: MS/TP Bus Showing FC Bus and SA Bus Addresses

The NAE/NCE is the bus supervisor on an FC Bus. The FEC or VMA is the bus supervisor on an SA Bus. Bus
supervisors have a fixed device address of 0 (zero) that cannot be changed (Figure 11-1 on page 95). Depending
on the model, an NS Series network sensor has either a fixed address of 199 or can be assigned a
switch-selectable address between 200 and 203. Table 11-1 on page 96 provides a list of the MS/TP device
address values and address value ranges for devices connected to an MS/TP Bus.
Because a token-passing message is sent from address to address in consecutive order, any gaps in the device
address range reduce bus performance while the message negotiates the gap to find the next device address on
the bus. For optimal bus performance, start with the lowest device address value and use consecutive address
values for the ranges listed in Table 11-1 on page 96.
Note: The devices on the bus do not need to be physically wired in sequential order as long as no gaps are in the
address value range.

MS/TP address range of 120 to 127. See the example in Figure 34-6 on page 371.

Setting the Address on MS/TP Bus Devices


For most devices on an FC Bus or SA Bus, the device address
is set using the DIP switches on the device’s ADDRESS DIP
switch block. The DIP switch blocks are binary switch blocks
1
and each switch represents a binary numerical value when the 2
switch is in the ON position.
4
The device address set on the ADDRESS DIP switch block
applies to only the bus where the device is not the bus 8
supervisor. For example, the DIP switches on an FEC set the 16
FC Bus address. If the FEC also supervises an SA Bus, the
FEC’s SA Bus address is 0 by default (Figure 11-1 on 32
page 95). The switches on the IOM set the address of the FC 64
Bus or SA Bus depending on the bus on which the IOM is
located. (An IOM is never a bus supervisor.) 128
ON

IMPORTANT: On FEC and VMA1600 Series controllers


(only), the 128 DIP switch on the controller’s device address
DIP switch block is used to enable the controller to operate
in a wireless mode using the ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Figure 11-2: Setting the Device Address
Bus System. On any FEC, VMA1600, and IOM Series on the ADDRESS DIP Switch Block
controller that is hardwired to an MS/TP Bus, the 128
DIP switch must be set to the (factory default) OFF
position. Operating any FEC, VMA1600, or IOM that is
hardwired to an MS/TP Bus with the controller’s 128 DIP
switch set to the ON position results in communication
failure on the bus.

An IOM has only one device connection, which can connect to either an FC Bus or an SA Bus (but not both);
therefore, the device address set on an IOM applies to the bus to which the IOM is connected. (An IOM is never a
bus supervisor.)

96 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


As you set the device address, the best practice is to set the highest switch value first, then the next highest switch
value, and so on, until the total of the switch values equal the intended device address. For example, to set a
device address for a device on an SA Bus to 227, position switch 128 to ON first, then 64, 32, 2, and 1. Positioning

MS/TP
ADDR
switches 16, 4, and 1 to ON (as shown in Figure 11-2 on page 96) sets the device address to 21 for a device on the
FC Bus.
Note: Devices may go offline momentarily when a device address is changed on an active bus, but the bus
devices and bus supervisor do not need to be reset after changing a device address.
Some devices, such as the TEC26xx Series thermostats and third-party MS/TP devices, use their own
configuration settings to establish the device address on the bus. Refer to the device manufacturer’s product
documentation for instructions on setting the device address. The device address values for TEC26xx thermostats
and all third-party devices must comply with the rules and ranges described previously. See Configuring the
TEC26xx Series Thermostat on page 150 for information on setting TEC26xx Series thermostat device addresses.

Wireless Installation
Wireless installation depends on the FEC model: FEC1610, FEC1620, or FEC26x0.
Wiring FEC1610 Model
To install the FEC1610 Controller for use with the ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System:
1. Terminate wiring as shown in your engineering drawings. For examples, see Termination Details on page 105.
2. If you have SA Bus devices, such as IOMs, wire them to the FC Bus Terminal Block (not the SA Bus Terminal

FEC
Block) in a daisy-chained fashion.
3. If you need to install a DIS1710 Local Controller
Display, balancing network sensor, or Wireless Installing a ZFRCBL Wire Harness

located on the circuit board in the mounting base near the Jumper
binary outputs. These jumpers select whether the output Jumper positioned
on top two pins

Binary OUT_Jumpers.cdr
provides power to the load (INT) or requires external
power (EXT). See Figure 12-13 on page 112.

IMPORTANT: Do not set the Binary Output EXT (Default)


jumpers to INT when an external transformer is Jumper positioned
wired to the Binary Output terminals. Failure to Pins
on bottom two pins
follow this precaution may cause damage to the
controller. Figure 12-13: Binary Output Jumper Positions
When set to the INT position, the FEC is the power source
for the Binary Output, and both sides of the load can be wired directly to the OUTx and COMx terminals.
Setting the jumper to the EXT position isolates the Binary Outputs and power must come from one or more external
sources. Do not wire the load directly to the OUTx and COMx terminals. Wire one side of the load to the source
and the other side of the load to the OUTx terminal. Wire the other side of the external power source to the COMx
terminal.
Commissioning
Commission the FEC using the Wireless Commissioning Converter with Bluetooth technology and the CCT
software. Refer to the CCT Help.

VMA1600
Application
The VMA1600 Series controllers are configurable digital controllers with an integral, air-pressure sensor and an
actuator for driving a damper (Figure 13-1 on page 117). The VMA1600 Series controllers are designed for BACnet
MS/TP applications on the FC Bus.
The VMA1600 controllers provide control for cooling, cooling with reheat, dual duct fans, and supply/exhaust fans
applications.
Mounting
See General Guidelines for Locating and Mounting Controllers on page 14 for more information on mounting the
VMA1600.
VMA1600

Preparing the VMA1600 for Mounting


Special Tools Needed
• 8 mm (5/16 in.) square wrench or 10 mm (3/8 in.) 12-point socket for actuator collar screw
• pliers to turn the damper shaft (if needed)
• 8 mm (5/16 in.) hex nut driver or 100 mm (4 in.) extension for 8 mm (5/16 in.) socket and power screwdriver for
self-drilling screw
• 3.5 mm (9/64 in.) drill bit (optional)
Check that you have the following equipment:
• VMA1600 Series controller
• NS Series network sensor, thermostat or other compatible room temperature sensor/control
• room sensor cable or wire for connecting the room sensor to the VMA1600
• appropriate cable or valve (if applicable)
Ensure that the installation site meets the following environmental requirements:
• VMA1600 location is protected, as much as possible, from water caused by leaking pipes, condensation, or
dripping solder from sweating pipe joints.
• atmosphere is free of explosive vapors or escaping gases.
• atmosphere is free of exposure to corrosive chemical or salt vapors, which might damage electrical equipment.
• maintain the ambient operating limits shown in the Installation Specifications on page 125. Flow measurement
accuracy suffers if the ambient temperature varies widely within this band.

IMPORTANT: The VMA1600 Series controllers require a damper shaft protrusion of at least 44 mm (1-3/4 in.)
from the surface the VMA is mounted on.

Make sure the VMA1600 mounting location has adequate clearance for future servicing.
Mounting the VMA1600
To mount the VMA1600:
1. Place the VMA1600 in the proper mounting position on the damper shaft so that the wiring connections are
easily accessible. Make sure the VMA base is parallel to the VAV box (perpendicular to the damper shaft). If
needed, use a spacer to offset tipping of the VMA caused by the shaft bushings.

IMPORTANT: When the air supply to the VAV box is below 10°C (50°F), make sure that any condensation on
the VAV box, particularly on the damper shaft, does not enter the electronics. Mount the VMA1600 vertically
above the damper shaft to allow any shaft condensation to fall away from the VMA controller. Additional
measures may be required in some installations.

118 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


2. Secure the self-tapping No.10 screw through the VMA1600 mounting slot with a power screwdriver and
100 mm (4 in.) extension socket. Otherwise, use a punch to mark the position of the shoulder washer, and then
drill a hole into the VAV box using a 3.5 mm (9/64 in.) drill bit. Insert the mounting screw, and tighten it against
the washer.

IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the screws, or the threads may strip. If mounting to the VAV box, make sure
the screws do not interfere with damper blade movement.

3. Locate the damper position using the typical marking on


the end of the damper-shaft (Figure 13-2 on page 119).

d_shaft
4. Note the direction (CW or CCW) required to close the

VMA1600
damper.
5. The open end-stop is automatically set for 90° (full Figure 13-2: Typical Damper End Shaft Icons
travel) boxes. For boxes that require 45° and 60° to
achieve full travel, hard stops must be provided at both fully closed and fully open damper positions. By
installing the VMA1600 at the fully open position, the VMA provides the open stop for 45° and 60° boxes. The
closed damper seal provides the fully closed stop.
Grasp the damper shaft firmly with pliers and either manually close the damper for 90° boxes or manually open
for 45° or 60° boxes.
6. Push down and hold the Manual Override button (see Figure 13-1 on page 117), and turn the VMA1600
coupler until it contacts the mechanical end-stop at either the fully closed (90° boxes) or fully open (45° and 60°
boxes) position.
7. If the damper for the box requires 90° to achieve full travel and closes CCW, rotate the coupler to the CCW
mechanical limit. If the damper for the box requires 90° to achieve full travel and closes CW, rotate the coupler
to the CW mechanical limit.
8. Tighten the square coupler bolt to the shaft using an 8 mm (5/16 in.) wrench or 10 mm (3/8 in.) 12-point socket.
Tighten the bolt to 17 to 21 N·m (150 to 180 lb·in [14 lb·ft]).
9. Loop the pneumatic tubing to include a trap for condensation. Attach the tubing from the VMA1600 to the VAV
box pickup. The HIGH (red) tubing is connected to the inlet or high-pressure side and the clear tubing to the
low side (see Figure 13-1 on page 117).
10. Push the manual release button, and turn the actuator coupling manually to ensure that the actuator can rotate
from full closed to full open positions without binding.
11. Complete the mounting by rotating the damper to the full open position.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage.

! Rotate the damper to full-open position before starting the air handler. Failure to rotate the damper to
the full-open position may result in damage to the Variable Air Volume (VAV) box or ductwork when
the air handler is started.

• One 20.3 cm (8 in.) or longer piece of DIN rail and appropriate hardware for mounting the DIN rail
Mounting
See General Guidelines for Locating and Mounting Controllers on page 14 and Mounting Metasys System
Controllers on page 15 for more information on mounting IOMs.
Setup and Adjustments
Setting the FC or SA Bus Address and EOL Switch
Set the IOM FC/SA Bus address on the ADDRESS DIP switches. See Setting Device Addresses on the BACnet
MS/TP Bus on page 95.
Set the IOM EOL switch according to the IOM controller’s position on the FC/SA Bus segment. See EOL
Termination on the MS/TP Bus on page 81.

Setting the jumper to the EXT position isolates the Binary Figure 14-3: Binary Output Jumper Positions
Outputs and power must come from one or more external
sources. Do not wire the load directly to the OUTx and COMx terminals. Wire one side of the load to the source
and the other side of the load to the OUTx terminal. Wire the other side of the external power source to the COMx
terminal.
Universal Inputs for 4-20mA Applications

IOM
Software configuration of the Universal Input normally selects the enabling or disabling of the analog input load
resistor. In cases when the analog input load resistor must be left connected even when power is OFF to the
controller, set this jumper to the ENABLE position.
Note: This jumper must be in the DISABLE position for all Universal Input modes other than 4-20 mA.
Universal Outputs for 4-20mA Applications
The IOM2710 and IOM3710 models include Universal Outputs that accept 4 to 20 mA applications.
Wiring
See General Guidelines for Wiring Metasys System Networks on page 17 and Wiring the FC Bus on page 88 for
general wiring guidelines. For SA Bus wiring information and important device limitations, see Wiring the SA Bus
on page 89 and SA Bus Device Limits on page 79, respectively.
To wire the IOM:
1. Terminate wiring per engineering drawings. For examples, see Termination Details on page 132.
2. If the IOM is connected to the FC Bus of a NAE or NCE, wire the FC Bus in a daisy chain.
3. If the IOM is connected to the SA Bus of an NCE or FEC, wire the SA Bus in a daisy chain.
4. Ensure the device address DIP switches are set to the appropriate hardware address (in the range of 4-127).
5. Connect power to the IOM.
6. Download and commission the IOM. For more information, refer to the CCT Help.

TEC26xx Series Thermostats: Section 16 149


Backlit LCD
The TEC26xx Series thermostats include a 2-line, 8-character backlit display. Low-level backlighting is present
during normal operation, and it brightens when any user interface key is pressed. The backlight returns to low level
when the thermostat is left unattended for 45 seconds.
Cover LEDs
Three LEDs are included to indicate the fan status, call for heat, or call for cooling:
• The FAN LED is on when the fan is on.
• The HEAT LED is on when heating or reheat is on.
• The COOL LED is on when cooling is on.
Status Display Menu
The Status Display Menu is displayed during normal thermostat operation. This menu continuously scrolls through
the following parameters:
• Room Temperature (All Models) and Humidity (TEC2636-2, TEC2636H-2, TEC2656-2, and TEC2656H-2
Models)
• System Mode
• Schedule Status – Occupied/Unoccupied/Override
• Applicable Alarms – The backlight lights up as an alarm condition is displayed.
Note: An option is available within the Installer Configuration Menu to lock out the scrolling display and show only
the Room Temperature parameter.
Dehumidification Operation – TEC2636(H)-2 and TEC2656(H)-2 Thermostat Models
TEC26xx

Upon detection of room humidity above the adjustable humidity setpoint as sensed by the integral humidity sensor,
dehumidification activates.
Note: Dehumidification operation functions only in the Cooling mode; dehumidification operation does not function
in either the Off or the Heating mode.
Note: A central network command can globally lock out dehumidification operation to all thermostats.
If the room temperature resides in the deadband between the Heating and Cooling setpoint:
• the thermostat forces the fan to low speed
• the chilled water valve opens to the specified maximum value set by CoolMax
• the thermostat stages Heating to maintain the room temperature at the Cooling setpoint, as sensed by the
thermostat
If the room temperature falls below the current Heating setpoint, the thermostat disables dehumidification
operation.
If the thermostat is in Cooling demand:
• the chilled water valve opens to 100%
• the thermostat stages Heating to maintain the room temperature at the Cooling setpoint, as sensed by the
thermostat
If the thermostat is in Cooling demand, and the room temperature rises 2F°/1C° above the Cooling setpoint, the
thermostat automatically disables dehumidification operation. Likewise, if the thermostat is in Cooling demand and
the room temperature falls below the current Heating setpoint, the thermostat disables dehumidification operation.
Configuring the TEC26xx Series Thermostat
The TEC26xx Series thermostat comes from the factory with default settings for all configurable parameters. The
default settings are shown in Table 16-4 on page 153. To reconfigure the parameters via the thermostat, follow
these steps:
1. Press and hold the center key for approximately 8 seconds to access the Installer Configuration Menu.
2. Release and press the center key to scroll through the parameters listed in Table 16-4 on page 153 until you
reach the desired parameter.

150 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


3. Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose the desired selection option.
4. Press and release the center key to continue scrolling through the parameters.
Note: Pressing the FAN key during configuration restarts the list of displayed parameters at the first parameter
listed in Table 16-4 on page 153.
When the thermostat is in the Installer Configuration Menu and left unattended for approximately 8 seconds, the
thermostat reverts to the Status Display Menu.
Configuring Inputs BI1, BI2, and UI3
When BI1 and BI2 are configured for an alarm condition, an alarm condition is displayed locally when the input is
closed. An alarm message is included on the scrolling Status Display Menu and when the message is displayed,
the backlight momentarily lights up.
The UI3 input provides changeover of hot/cold water switching, or supply air temperature monitoring at the
thermostat.
Each input can be configured to the Selection Options included in Table 16-4 on page 153.
Configuring the Sequence of Operation (SeqOpera)
Choose the appropriate sequence of operation. The modes presented are user-dependent on the sequence of
operation selected. For two-pipe applications using a changeover sensor, choose the selection option
(0): Cooling only. Changeover occurs between Cooling only and Heating only.
Note: See Figure 16-5 on page 147 and Table 16-1 on page 145 for location and description of the terminals
called out in Table 16-2 on page 151 and Table 16-3 on page 152.

detected sets the zone to Occupied status. The thermostat remains
in the occupied mode until a DoorOpen is detected, at which point
the thermostat goes to the unoccupied mode. If the door stays open
more than the specified door time, the thermostat remains
unoccupied. (See the Door Time parameter later in this table.)
(RemOVR): Temporary occupancy request via a remote input. This
override function is controlled by a manual remote occupancy
override. When enabled, this condition disables the override
capability of the thermostat.
(Filter): A Filter alarm is displayed. This alarm can be connected to
a differential pressure switch that monitors a filter.
(Service): A Service alarm is displayed on the thermostat when the
input is energized. This input can be tied into the air conditioning
unit control card, which provides an alarm should there be a
malfunction.

NS Series Network Sensors
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
Wallbox-mounted and surface-mounted NS Series Network Sensors are
electric zone sensors designed to function directly with
Johnson Controls MS/TP digital controllers in HVAC systems. Models in
this series monitor the temperature setpoint, zone temperature, and
humidity, and transmit this data to a field controller on the SA Bus.
Models with a setpoint adjustment feature a temperature setpoint dial
and a LCD designed to make setpoint adjustment and zone temperature
viewing easier. A °F/°C push button is available on setpoint adjustment
models to provide temperature scale options for display. An occupancy
override function is also featured on these models, which allows the
user to signal the controller that the space is occupied, and to request
an override of time-of-day scheduling. Rotating the setpoint dial signals Figure 17-1: Example of a
occupancy. 120 x 80 mm NS Series Network
Select setpoint adjustment models in this series also provide VAV Sensor
balancing functionality. These models look like and perform similarly to
the other network sensors but have the added capability of serving as a tool to balance a VAV box.
For models without a setpoint adjustment, a warmer/cooler dial is included on certain models for minor temperature
adjustments from the setpoint. An occupancy override button is also featured on some of these models, which
allows the user to signal the controller that the space is occupied, and to request an override of time-of-day
scheduling. Select models without a setpoint adjustment include DIP switches to set a unique address in averaging
applications.
Depending on the model chosen, the wires connecting the network sensor to the controller can be terminated
using either a modular jack or screw terminal block, offering wiring flexibility. All models include an SA Bus access

SENSOR
NS NET
port for connecting accessories to access the SA Bus. This feature allows a technician to commission or service
the controller via the network sensor.
Mounting
See Sensor Location and Mounting Guidelines on page 16 for information on locating and mounting an NS Series
sensor.
Note: For surface-mount applications, use durable mounting hardware such as Molly bolt anchors that cannot be
easily pulled out of the mounting surface. Do not use plastic expansion anchors to mount NS Series sensors.
Special Tools Needed
Only a 1.5 mm (1/16 in.) Allen wrench or a Johnson Controls T-4000-119 Allen-head Adjustment Tool is needed.

IMPORTANT: The wallbox-mount NS Series Network Sensor models must be mounted on a wallbox in a
vertical orientation (only). Do not mount a wallbox-mount network sensor horizontally.

Note: The network sensor is shock and vibration resistant; however, be careful not to drop the unit or mount it
where it could be exposed to excessive vibration.
Note: An adapter wallplate (NS-WALLPLATE-0) is required when the surface mount Network Sensor
(80 x 80 mm) is mounted on a standard electrical backbox.
Observe the following ambient operating conditions:
• Temperature: 32 to 104°F (0 to 40°C)
• Humidity: 10 to 90% RH, noncondensing; 85°F (29°C) maximum dew point

Code No. LIT-410018 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 17 161
Wiring
IMPORTANT: Failure to adhere to these wiring details causes the network sensor to function incorrectly. If you
do not adhere to these guidelines, you cannot connect to the bus using the wireless commissioning converter or
the handheld Variable Air Volume (VAV) balancing sensor, and you cannot expand the bus with future offerings.

To wire the network sensor:


1. Use a 1.5 mm (1/16 in.) Allen wrench or Johnson Controls T-4000-119 Allen-head Adjustment Tool to loosen
the security screw on the top of the unit.
2. Insert a blade screwdriver (or another tool, such as a quarter) into the slot next to the security screw location,
then carefully pry the top edge of the sensor assembly away from its mounting base and remove.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). Removing the PCB voids the product warranty.

3. Pull out approximately 152 mm (6 in.) of cable from


the wallbox, and insert the cable through the hole in
the mounting base.
4. Align the mounting base on the wallbox.
Note: Confirm that the mounting base is positioned
with the proper edge up. The mounting base is
positioned properly when the security screw is located
on the top edge of the base.

screwterminalblock
5. Secure the mounting base to the wallbox using the
two No. 6 pan-head mounting screws included with
the unit.
6. Wire the network sensor:
• For models featuring a screw terminal block, wire
the unit as illustrated in Figure 17-2 on page 162. Figure 17-2: Wiring to the Screw Terminal Block
SENSOR
NS NET

• For models featuring a modular jack, simply snap


the modular plug into the jack. See Figure 17-3
on page 163 for modular jack pin number assignments. Modular jack models require a straight-through
(not a crossover) connector.
For more details on wiring the MS/TP Communications Bus, see the BACnet MS/TP Communications Bus
Guidelines on page 73. For SA Bus wiring information and important device limitations, see Wiring the SA Bus
on page 89 and SA Bus Device Limits on page 79, respectively.
7. Align the tabs on the bottom edge of the mounting base with the slots on the bottom edge of the network
sensor assembly, and rotate the assembly onto its mounting base.
Note: On models featuring a screw terminal block, be certain that the terminal block pins align with the holes
in the terminal block.
8. Use a 1.5 mm (1/16 in.) Allen wrench or Johnson Controls T-4000-119 Allen-head Adjustment Tool to tighten
the security screw and fasten the network sensor assembly to the mounting base.
Note: Do not overtighten the security screw to avoid damaging the unit.
9. Use the CCT software to commission the network sensor. Refer to the CCT Help for more details.

Installation and Wiring Guidelines

Figure 18-1: NS Series Network Discharge Air Sensor

Application
The NS Series Network Discharge Air Sensors are electronic duct sensors designed to function directly with
Johnson Controls digital controllers in HVAC systems. Models in this series monitor the duct temperature, typically
at the discharge of the VAV box, and transmit this data to a FEC, a VMA1600, or an NCE on the SA Bus using the
10 ft (305 cm) wiring lead included with the unit. The 10 ft (305 cm) wiring lead consists of four 22 AWG (0.6 mm
diameter) color-coded wires encased in a plenum-rated jacket. Each of the wires is stripped and tinned for easy
connection to the SA Bus screw terminal block.
The NS Series Network Discharge Air Sensors are available with either a 4 or 8 in. (102 or 203 mm) temperature
probe. All models include DIP switches for applications requiring multiple discharge air sensors, each with a unique

SENSOR
DIP switch address.

N2 Bus Overview and Rules


The N2 Communications Bus is a 9600 baud RS-485 network that connects Metasys NAEs, NCEs, and NCMs to
field controllers and point interfaces. The N2 Bus uses a master/slave protocol. The master device (NAE, NCE, or
NCM) initiates all communication with lower-level, slave devices.
The N2 Bus is typically installed with 22 AWG three-conductor unshielded twisted cable. Optionally, the N2 Bus can
use shielded, twisted cable or optical fiber when special fiber modems are used. The use of shielded cable is
recommended only for trunk segments that are routed near highly inductive loads produced by motors, or by
transformers and (non-electronic) lighting ballasts.
For most installations, N2 Bus segments use a daisy-chain network topology (Figure 19-2 on page 175); however,
when repeaters are used to extend the network, a branch or star topology can also be implemented. See
Table 19-1 on page 174 for N2 Bus rules.
The NAE, NCE, or NCM supports one N2 Bus, but some NAE models can support two N2 Buses. The devices that
you place on the N2 Bus include a wide variety of Johnson Controls and third-party controllers and devices.
Most N2 devices are connected to the N2 Bus with a removable terminal block on the device. Connection occurs
when you terminate the N2 wires between the master device (NAE, NCE, or NCM) and the slave devices
(Johnson Controls field controllers and third-party devices).

N2 BUS

Wiring the N2 Bus


IMPORTANT: Do not apply power to the Metasys network before finishing communication wiring and checking
all wiring connections. Short-circuited or improperly connected wires may result in permanent damage to the
equipment.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring in accordance with local, national, and regional
regulations. Do not exceed the electrical ratings for the devices on the Metasys network.

IMPORTANT: Do not run network communication cables in the same conduit, raceway, or panel with any high-
voltage (>30 VAC) wiring. Isolate all network devices from high-voltage wiring and equipment. Failure to isolate
network wiring and network devices from high-voltage wiring and equipment can result in damage to network
devices or poor network performance.

IMPORTANT: Do not connect N2 and MS/TP devices to the same FC Bus. The N2 Bus terminal on some NAE
or NCE models is labeled FC Bus, and even though the N2 and MS/TP protocols both use the FC Bus port, the
two protocols cannot share the same FC Bus.

IMPORTANT: Properly install, terminate, and ground the cable shield on the N2 Bus to minimize inductive
noise, which can result in unreliable communication on the bus.

IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge to the network wiring and network devices. Static electric
discharge can damage the network devices and void any warranties.

General N2 Bus Wiring Guidelines


Observe the following when installing and wiring the N2 Communication Bus:
• Do not run cables near moving parts. Avoid sharp bends, abrasion, and the potential for severing or crushing
the cable.
• Route cables neatly to promote good ventilation, visibility, testing, and ease of service.
• Provide some slack in the wires and cables to allow for access and servicing.
• Protect, coil, and secure any excess cable.
• Ensure proper grounding for bus cable shielding.
• Ensure proper EOL termination on communication busses.
• Use dedicated transformers for 24 VAC supply power to the network devices or provide surge protection on the
primary side of the 24 VAC supply power transformers to isolate the network devices from inductive surges or
spikes.

Figure 19-5: Surge Protector Installation on N2 Bus

Surge Protectors
One pair of surge protectors is required whenever the N2 Bus wire is routed outside between two buildings. Install
the protector close to the N2 device that first receives the bus wires from the outside. See Figure 19-5 on
page 178.
The recommended surge protector is the Transient Eliminator, model TE/JC04C12, manufactured by Advanced
Protection Technologies, Inc. (APT). The device protects the N2 Bus from indirect lightning and shunts both
common and normal mode voltage surges to ground repeatedly without damage to N2 Bus components.
Do not use the surge protector with any other type wiring, such as leased line. If you need surge protection for
other wire types, contact APT or another transient noise protection company.
Fiber-Optic Modems
Fiber-optic modems are communication devices that provide conversion between N2 Bus signals (RS-485) and
fiber-optic signals. A pair of modems is required for each point of conversion.
EOL Termination on the N2 Bus
EOL termination is required on the N2 Bus to reduce
signal reflection when data transmissions reach the end of
a bus segment and bounce back. EOL termination is built
into some Metasys N2 devices and is enabled with a
switch or jumper on the device (Figure 19-6 on page 178).
AHUs, UNTs, DXs, VMAs, and VAVs are self-terminating
(EOL termination built-in) and therefore do not require
EOL termination at the device. For devices located at the
end of a bus segment that are not self-terminating (no
O 1
built-in EOL switch), use an EOL terminator. The EOL Switch in
FIG:NAE_EOL

recommended EOL terminator is the


MS-BACEOL-0 RS485 End-of-Line Terminator. For a
the ON Position
summary of EOL terminations, see Table 19-3 on
page 179. Additional details follow the table.

EOL Termination on NAEs, NCEs, and NCMs


An EOL switch on an NAE, NCE, and NCM enables EOL termination. For those NAEs/NCEs with two N2 Bus
connections, two EOL double-pole switches are provided. Set the EOL switch to the ON (up) position to set the
controller as an EOL termination device (Figure 19-6 on page 178).
EOL Termination on Switch-Terminating Devices
Some field controllers have an EOL switch or jumper. Such devices include DCMs, XBNs, XREs, ILCs, IFCs,
repeaters, SECVTs, and D600s. Set the EOL termination to On for any of these devices when it is the last device
on a bus segment.
EOL Termination on Self-Terminating Devices
Some field controllers are self-terminating devices and do not offer EOL switches. Such devices include VMAs,
VAVs, AHUs, UNTs, and DXs. These devices can be located anywhere on a bus segment and do not require an
EOL terminator.
EOL Termination on Devices without EOL Provision
For the devices such as TECs and third-party controllers in which no EOL provision is provided, install the
MS-BACEOL-0 RS485 End-of-Line Terminator at the device if at the end of the bus segment.
EOL Termination Across the N2 Bus
The N2 Bus may consist of up to three bus segments. Each bus segment on an N2 Bus requires two EOL
termination devices, one at each end of the bus segment. All other devices on the N2 Bus should have their EOL
termination disabled (EOL switches Off) (Figure 19-7 on page 179). If only one device on an N2 segment has an
EOL termination, it must be set to On.
EOL on N2 Bus Repeaters
When using repeaters in the N2 Bus, set the EOL jumpers (Figure 19-8 on page 180) based on the position of the
repeater in the run. See Table 19-4 on page 180 for proper settings.

N2 Bus Repeater
The N2 Bus repeater (Figure 19-8 on page 180) isolates and boosts the power of the N2 Bus signal, which extends
the range and increases the number of devices that can reside on the N2 Bus. You need a repeater only when the
N2 Bus must be extended beyond 5,000 feet or 50 devices (or less if third-party devices are used). See
Figure 19-8 on page 180 for wiring detail. See N2 Communications Bus on page 184 for repeater model

address on a device, see Setting Device Addresses on the N2 Bus on page 185.

180 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


N2 BUS
N2 Bus Checkout and Testing
Voltage readings on the N2 Bus must fall within the following voltage ranges:
Table 19-5: Acceptable Voltage Ratings for the N2 Bus
Measurement Lower Limit Upper Limit
N2+ to REF 2.45 VDC 2.98 VDC
N2– to REF 2.06 VDC 2.54 VDC
N2+ to N2– +0.38 VDC +0.92 VDC

Note: Because of the robust nature of the N2 Bus, a bus with voltages outside of these ranges may still
communicate, but may function in an impaired state. If the number of devices or device traffic on an impaired N2
Bus increases, communication problems could occur. Therefore, if your readings are not within the ranges listed in
Table 19-5 on page 181, a wire is most likely grounded, shorted, or crossed with another wire.
If you discover that the N2 voltages are outside these recommended ranges, you must locate and fix the problem.
To determine the location of the problem, go halfway down the bus, split it into two segments, and measure each
segment. Continue this process until the problem is isolated, identified, and corrected.
In many cases, poor N2 voltage is caused by:
• faulty or improper end-of-line termination
• short circuit between N2+, N2– and/or N2 REF at some point on the bus
• N2+ or N2– wire reversed on one or more field controllers
To assist you with successfully installing and validating the N2 Bus, the following tools are available:
• ComBus Quick Tester
• Metasys Checkout Tool
ComBus Quick Tester
The ComBus Quick Tester tests an entire N2 Bus
segment. It checks all three bus voltage readings
against the values in Table 19-5 on page 181, indicates REF - +
a Pass/Fail test result, counts all devices on the bus, 4-position Plug-in Terminal
Connector
and displays each controller by type.
To use the ComBus Quick Tester, follow these steps: End View
1. Unplug the N2 Bus terminal connector from the N2
device and insert it into the plug-in terminal on top
of the Quick Tester. The connector has the same

Device Addresses on the N2 Bus
All devices connected to the N2 Communications Bus require a unique address to identify the device to
N2 BUS

supervisory controllers, such as NAEs, NCEs, and NCMs. These master devices use the address for polling,
ADDR

monitoring, and commanding slave N2 Bus devices and their field points.
For most devices, a set of DIP switches is used to configure the N2 Bus address. For other devices, such as
networked thermostats, the address is configured in software.
Note: To determine the N2 address number to use for each device, refer to addresses shown on the engineered
drawing’s riser diagram or room schedule.
DIP Switches
Figure 20-1 on page 185 shows the DIP switch designs for most controllers that reside on the N2 Bus. The switch
has eight segments with two positions: ON (In) and OFF (Out). Each switch corresponds to an 8-bit number from 1
to 128. Switches are labeled 1 to 8 or 1 to 128 (in 8-bit increments) and have the following decimal equivalents:
Table 20-1: Switch Number and Its Decimal Equivalent
Switch Number 1 2 3 or 4 4 or 8 5 or 16 6 or 32 7 or 64 8 or 128
Decimal Equivalent 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128

The N2 hardware address is determined by summing the values beside each DIP switch that is set to ON. For
example, Figure 20-1 on page 185 shows how to set an Address of 168. Switch 128 (or Switch 8), Switch 32 (or
Switch 6), and Switch 8 (or Switch 4) are each set to ON (128 + 32 + 8 = 168), and all others are set to OFF.
Note: As a best practice when setting an N2 address, begin with the largest switch setting possible. For example,
if you need to set Address 100, you would start with the switch that is closest to (but not greater than) 100, which is
Switch 64 (7); then select the next lower numbered switch(es) that would provide a sum of 100, which are Switch
32 (6) and Switch 4 (3).
The process of setting or changing an N2 device address involves turning off power to the device, setting the N2
address, then returning power to device. A power cycle is required so that the controller updates itself with the new
address.
If the N2 device does not have DIP switches, such as networked thermostats and optionally the VMA1400, the N2
address is configured in software. For details, see the sections TEC Networked Thermostats on page 194 and
Software Addressing the VMA1400 on page 191.
The order of the N2 addresses you elect to use does not need to match the sequential order in which the devices
are installed in the field. For example, the first controller down the line may have Address 5 and the last controller
may have Address 1. No delays in communication result in mixing the order of address assignments. However,
using an incrementing address assignment scheme starting with Address 1 on the first device connected to the
supervisory controller makes for an intelligent network design.
If for some reason two devices have been assigned the same N2 Bus address on a single logical bus, even across
bus segments with a repeater in between, unreliable communications result.
The supervisory device that also has an N2 Bus connection (such as the NAE, NCE or NCM) does not require an
N2 Bus address.
Special Tools Needed
To set the address on an N2 Bus device, you need the following:
• HVAC PRO software, current version (only if you need to software address VMAs)
• Laptop computer (to run HVAC PRO software)
• Small straight-blade screwdriver (for clicking switches into place)
• Small needle-nose pliers (for removing or inserting jumpers, if setting the TC-9102)

Table 20-2: N2 Communications Bus Addressing Rules
Category Rules

N2 BUS
ADDR
General One address used on one device across entire network.
Address Range 1 to 253
Note: Do not use address 0 (invalid), 2541, or 2552
Addressing N2 Bus Repeaters N2 Bus repeaters do not require an N2 Bus address and are not identified as an online
device to the network. They are passive devices.
1. Address 254 is reserved in the VMA as a broadcast address used during code downloads from HVAC PRO for Windows
software. This allows multiple VMAs to receive a download.
2. Address 255 is reserved for the Metasys Ethernet Router, if one is in use on the network.

Setting the Address on N2 Bus Devices


IMPORTANT: It is absolutely critical that you set addresses correctly. Duplicate addresses on the N2 Bus
cause unreliable communication, and finding which devices have the same address is very time-consuming.

UNTs and VAVs


The N2 Bus address for UNTs and VAVs is set with DIP switches located on the top right corner of the unit
(Figure 20-2 on page 187). The example in Figure 20-2 on page 187 shows Address 17. Follow these steps:
1. Turn off power to the device.
2. Position the DIP switches to configure the address using the 8-bit binary format.
3. Return power to the device.

computer that has HVAC PRO software Release 8.01 or later.
To address a VMA in software:
1. Set all N2 address DIP switches to Address 0 or 255 on all VMAs on the N2 Bus. If the DIP switches are set to
any other value during power up, the controller defaults to hardware addressing.
2. Supply power to the units.
3. Program each address through the Zone Bus using a laptop, AS-CBLPRO-2 or AS-CVTPROx00-0 converter,
and HVAC PRO software Release 8.01 or later. Select either Controller Information or VMA Balancer Tool from
the Action menu in HVAC PRO software.
If you select Controller Information, select Single Device.
4. Select Zone Bus. The Controller Information screen or VMA Balancer Tool screen appears.
5. Select an N2 address from the drop-down list.
6. Click Set Address.
7. Wait for the new address to appear in the N2 Address field of the Controller Information screen or Balancer
Tool screen.
Alternatively, program each address through the Zone Bus using a Palm compatible handheld device and the VBT
software. Refer to Auxiliary Gear Technical Bulletin (LIT-6363080) and Using the VMA1400 Balancing Tool (VBT)
Software Technical Bulletin (LIT-6363092).

UNT Controllers
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
The UNT Controller is an electronic device for digital control of packaged air handling units, unit ventilators, fan
coils, heat pumps, and other terminal units serving a single zone or room. It can also be configured as a generic
Input/Output device for basic point monitoring applications when used within a Metasys network.

UNT
The UNT may be used as a stand-alone controller or connected to the Metasys network through a Metasys
supervisory controller.
When connected to the Metasys network, the UNT provides all point control information to the rest of the network.
The devices communicate through an N2 Bus. For a smaller facility, the UNT controller can function as a
stand-alone controller.

Mounting
Universal Packaging Modules (Enclosures)
See Panels and Enclosures on page 435 for more information on mounting and installing UPMs. Pre-mounted
controllers (in an EWC10 enclosure with 50 VA transformer) include:
• AS-UNT110-101 / AS-UNT111-101
• AS-UNT140-101 / AS-UNT141-101
Special Tools Needed
HVAC Pro for Windows software, current release, personal computer, AS-CVTPRO converter (for downloading,
uploading, and commissioning controllers via the Zone Bus or N2 Bus), three No. 8 sheet metal screws, drill,
6.4 mm (1/4 in.) flat blade screwdriver and 3.2 mm (1/8 in.) flat blade screwdriver
The UNT controller is often panel-mounted. See Panels and Enclosures on page 435.

204 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


Location and Environment
Mount the UNT to ensure the specified environment and ambient conditions.
• The atmosphere must be free of explosive vapors and escaping gases. Also, the atmosphere must be free of
exposure to corrosive chemical or salt vapors that might damage electric equipment.
• For UNT100/101, UNT110/111, and UNT140/141 Series controllers, the temperature must be maintained
between 0 and 52°C (32 and 125°F) with relative humidity (noncondensing) maintained between 10 and 90%.
• For UNT120/121 Series controllers used with outdoor rooftop applications, the temperature must be

UNT
maintained between -40 and 52°C (-40 and 125°F) with relative humidity maintained between 10 and 90%.
Some intermittent condensation is tolerable. This operating temperature range is possible in the UNT120/121
Series controllers due to the heater, coated circuit board, and BZ-1000-7 size enclosure.
• For the UNT1100 Series controllers, the temperature must be maintained between -40 and 60°C (-40 and
140°F) with relative humidity (noncondensing) maintained between 10 and 90%.
Extreme care must be taken when mounting the UNT in a rooftop unit. If the unit is mounted too close to devices
used to fire gas heat, the electromagnetic field created by these static generators could cause the UNT to
malfunction. In addition, some UNT models have built-in heaters to avoid malfunction in extremely cold ambient
conditions.
I/O
For multiple Variable Frequency Drives, optical isolators are required on analog outputs for proper isolation.
Mounting a UNT
Mount the controller on a flat surface (or 35 mm DIN rail for
UNT1100 Series model) in any convenient location that meets the
environment criteria listed. The overall dimensions of the UNT100
Series controller are 162 x 163 x 56 mm (6.5 x 6.4 x 2.2 in.) H x W
x D; for the UNT1100 Series controller, 162 x 157 x 42 mm (6.5 x
6.2 x 1.7 in.) H x W x D.
Note: Overtightening can strip screw threads. Make sure screws
do not interfere with wiring or access. A minimum clearance of
45.7 cm (18 in.) is required.
WIRNGU05
Note: If the UNT is mounted above ceiling for zone control Mounting

applications, ensure proper clearance is available in front of the Tabs
Controller
UNT for servicing.
Figure 21-1: Mounting a UNT100 Series
Note: If the UNT controller is not mounted in an enclosure, secure
Controller
it to a non-vibrating surface, such as a solid wall.
To surface mount the UNT:
1. Place the UNT in the proper mounting position. Make sure you allow enough room to install the enclosure and
conduit for wiring terminations to the controller.
2. Attach the UNT to the mounting surface using 3 No. 8 self-tapping screws.
To DIN rail mount the UNT1100:
1. Attach a 35 mm DIN rail to the panel.
2. Position the UNT1100 along the rail.
3. Snap the lower edge of the UNT1100 into place.

UNT Controllers: Section 21 205


Wiring
See Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors on page 17 for more information on input or output wiring, cable
recommendations, and sizes. See Table 21-1 on page 197 through Table 21-8 on page 204 for the terminal
identifications of respective UNT Models. See Table 21-12 on page 218 for a listing of the signals that can be
connected to each terminal type.
Terminating Metastat Connectors
Insert the flat eight conductor phone jack RJ45 male connector into the UNT board female connector.
UNT

Note: Use the recommended preconfigured cable whenever possible. See Table 45-8 on page 467 for additional
information on preconfigured Metastat cables.
• If field installation of RJ-45 connectors is required, use the proper tool for crimping the connector onto the
cable. See Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors on page 17 for the recommended crimping tool.
• Ensure the cable wires are properly lined up by color code to allow a one-to-one connection from one end of
the cable to the other.
• See Figure 21-13 on page 216 for terminal block wiring designations.
Terminating Power from UNT’s Transformer
1. Cut cable to required length to insure conductors can run in a neat
workmanship condition within the enclosure. 1 2 3 45 6 78

2. Strip the cable insulating jacket to expose the individual conductors and
shield of the cable using a wire stripper.

VMA1400
Application
The VMA1400 Series controllers are configurable, integrated modules that include a VAV controller and differential
pressure sensor. An actuator is also included on all models except the VMA1430.
The VMA1400 Series controllers are designed for N2 Bus applications.
Mounting
Preparing the VMA1400 for Mounting
Special Tools Needed
The following tools are required:
• 8 mm (5/16 in.) square wrench or 10 mm (3/8 in.) 12-point socket for actuator collar screw
VMA1400

• pliers to turn the damper shaft (if needed)


• 8 mm (5/16 in.) hex nut driver or 100 mm (4 in.) extension for 8 mm (5/16 in.) socket and power screwdriver for
self-tapping screw
• 3.5 mm (9/64 in.) drill bit (optional)
The following equipment is required:
• VMA1400 Series controller
• TE-6700, TE-7000 (Europe only), or TMZ1600 room sensor
• RJ-style modular jack room sensor cable or wire for connecting the room sensor to the VMA1400
• separate damper actuator for the VMA1430
• Appropriate cable for valve (if applicable)
Ensure that the installation site meets the following environmental requirements:
• VMA1400 location is protected, as much as possible, from water caused by leaking pipes, condensation, or
dripping solder from sweating pipe joints.
• atmosphere is free of explosive vapors or escaping gases.
• atmosphere is free of exposure to corrosive chemical or salt vapors, which might damage electrical equipment.
• temperature is maintained between 0 to 50°C (32 to 122°F), with the relative humidity (noncondensing)
maintained between 10 and 90%; these are operating limits. Flow measurement accuracy suffers if the
ambient temperature varies widely within this band.

IMPORTANT: The VMA1410 and VMA1420 require a damper shaft protrusion of at least 44 mm (1-3/4 in.)
from the VMA mounting surface.

Note: Make sure the VMA mounting location has adequate clearance for future servicing.
Mounting the VMA1410/1420
1. Place the VMA1400 in the proper mounting position on the damper shaft so that the wiring connections are
easily accessible. Make sure the VMA1400 base is parallel to the VAV box. If needed, use a spacer to offset
tipping of the VMA1400 caused by shaft bushings.

IMPORTANT: When the air supply to the VAV box is below 10°C (50°F), make sure that any condensation on
the VAV box, particularly on the damper shaft, does not enter the electronics. Mount the VMA1400 vertically
above the damper shaft to allow any shaft condensation to fall away from the VMA1400 controller. Additional
measures may be required in some installations.

222 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


2. Secure the self-tapping No. 10 screw into the VMA1400 mounting slot with a power screwdriver and 100 mm
(4-in.) extension socket. Otherwise, use a punch to mark the position of the shoulder washer, and then drill a
hole into the VAV box through the mark using a 3.5 mm (9/64 in.) drill bit. Insert the mounting screw, and
tighten against the washer.

IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the screws, or the threads may strip. If mounting to the VAV box, make sure
the screws do not interfere with damper blade movement.

3. Locate the damper position using typical marking on


the end of the damper shaft (Figure 22-2 on

FIG:dmrsh
page 223).

and either manually
close the damper for boxes requiring 90° to achieve full travel, or manually open the damper for boxes
requiring 45° or 60° to achieve full travel.
6. Push down and hold the gear release lever (Figure 22-3 on page 223), and turn the VMA1400 coupler until it
contacts the mechanical end-stop at either the fully closed (90° boxes) or fully open (45° or 60° boxes)
position.
7. If the damper for a 90° box closes CCW, rotate the coupler to the CCW mechanical limit. If the damper for a
90° box closes CW, rotate the coupler to the CW mechanical limit.
8. Tighten the square coupler bolt to the shaft using an 8 mm (5/16 in.) wrench or 10 mm (3/8 in.) 12-point socket.
9. Loop the pneumatic tubing to include a trap for condensation. Attach the tubing from the VMA1400 to the VAV
box pickup. The HI (red) tubing is connected to the inlet or high-pressure side and the clear tubing to the low
side (Figure 22-1 on page 221).
10. Push the gear release lever, and turn the actuator coupling manually to ensure that the actuator can rotate
from fully closed to fully open without binding.
11. Complete the mounting by rotating the damper to the full-open position.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage.

! Rotate the damper to the full-open position before starting the air handler. Failure to rotate the
damper to the full-open position may result in damage to the VAV box or ductwork when the air
handler is started.

Wiring
For more information on wiring the VMA1400 to an N2 Bus, see N2 Communications Bus Guidelines on page 173,
and refer to the N2 Communications Bus Technical Bulletin (LIT-636018).
Note: Many of these units are connected to the N2 Bus and the room temperature sensor using RJ-style jacks
and cables (Figure 22-3 on page 223). See Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors on page 17 for information on
wiring with RJ-style jacks and cables.
Consider the following when wiring the VMA1400:
• The VMA1400 includes isolation of the AI, BI, AO, and N2 from the 24 VAC and the BO circuitry.
• The VMA1400 includes isolated N2, isolated binary outputs, and isolated 24 VAC.
VMA1400

• The 24 VAC power input is internally transformer isolated by the VMA1400. To meet NEC requirements for line
voltage greater than 150 VAC, Terminal 1 can be earth-grounded.
• When supplying 24 VAC low voltage power to multiple VAV boxes, one 100 VA low-voltage, power-limited,
Class 2 transformer is usually used to power five or six controllers. See Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors
on page 17 for specific calculations for the maximum number of controllers allowed, not to exceed the 100 VA
limit. See Maximum Voltage Drop on 24 VAC Power Wiring on page 470 for voltage drop calculations to
determine wire size requirements.
• A conduit is not required by the NEC for Class 2 wiring installations.
• Large insulated spade lugs with a polarizing tab (for high voltage) do not fit on the VMA1400.
Note: Refer to the project engineering drawings for wiring details. Keep all field wiring, with the exception of the
N2 Bus, in the same room with the controllers, to comply with UL smoke control requirements. Refer to the
Metasys Smoke-Control Wiring Technical Bulletin (LIT-636331) for details on smoke control requirements.
To wire the VMA1400:
1. Disconnect all power to the VMA1400.
2. Determine if spade lugs, removable 2- or 3-position
screw terminals, or phone cable is used. Terminate
wiring per engineering drawings.

FIG:scrwterm
3. Install the N2 Bus to the supervisory controller in a daisy
chained fashion only. See N2 Communications Bus 2-Position Removable Screw
Terminal Connector
Guidelines on page 173.
4. Connect power to the VMA1400. Figure 22-4: Optional Removable Screw

Power, Zone Bus, and N2 Connections


The 24 VAC input to the AHU100 plugs into the Molex connector (J4). This connector has a built-in line filter.
Do not connect power to screws Terminals 1 and 2. This is a filtered power output to the Zone Bus devices.
The Zone Bus is a 2-wire communications bus that allows a computer to communicate with the AHU, to download
the AHU’s configuration, and to communicate with the Zone Terminal and M100 Actuators. The Zone Bus may be
hard wired to the AHU or connected via the 6- and 8-pin phone jacks (see Figure 23-3 on page 231). The Zone Bus
provides 24 VAC, Common, and ZBUS. Terminal 3 links the controller with Zone Bus. Terminals 1 and 2 are limited
to 11 VA at 24 VAC.
The N2 connection to the AHU100 is at Terminals 4, 5, and 6 and identified as N2A+/ N2A-/AREF (Figure 23-1 on
page 227).

AHU Series Air Handler Unit Controllers: Section 23 229

Application
The VAV Controller is an electric device for digital control of single duct, dual duct, fan powered, and supply/
exhaust VAV box configurations. You may use the VAV as a stand-alone controller or connected to the Metasys
network. The supervisory controller can be the N30, NAE, NCE, or NCM.
When connected to the Metasys Network, the VAV provides all point and control information to the rest of the
network. The devices communicate through an N2 Bus.
Each VAV Controller application uses a different sequence of operation, all of which are covered in the HVAC PRO
for Windows User’s Manual (LIT-6375120).
Most VAV installations should be coordinated with the VAV box manufacturer for factory mounting. Contact the
mechanical services group for Johnson Controls VAV boxes for control information.

VAV Series Variable Air Volume Controllers: Section 24 239


Power Wiring
Limit the power to each VAV to 3 amperes or less. However, if you use one low voltage power trunk to power
multiple controllers, follow these precautions:
• Ensure polarity is maintained at each 24 VAC connection.
• As per NEC code, you must enclose 24 VAC power trunks with more than 4 amperes (100 VA) in conduit.
The 24 VAC power connection to VAV110/111 or VAV140/141 is at the far left two positions of the 3-position screw
terminal block. The removable terminal block also allows you to disconnect power to the VAV without disrupting the
24 VAC that is daisy-chained to other controllers.
You may connect the Series VAV110/111 and VAV140/141 power transformer secondary directly to earth ground. If
you elect to do so, the grounded side must connect to the Common power input terminal of the controller. You do
not need a separate isolation transformer for these controllers.

is at the 3-position screw
terminal block identified as REF/N2-/N2+. The N2 screw terminal block is removable to allow you to disconnect the
communication trunk without disrupting the N2 that is daisy-chained to other controllers.

IMPORTANT: Some local electric codes require the secondary common of stepdown transformers be
connected to earth ground (typically on units powered by more than 150 VAC). You may have a maximum of one
single earth ground connection, which must be at the transformer secondary common, whether one or multiple
controllers are powered by the same transformer.

Binary Outputs
There are six or eight binary outputs (depending on the selected model) on the controller. Binary outputs are triacs
on the controller hardware. These outputs switch the transformer's low side (or common) to the output.
Each binary output must be connected between the BO terminal and 24 VAC terminal since it is low side switching.
Each BO must drive an individual 24 VAC load drawing between 50 and 800 mA.
If VAV output loads such as contactor or solenoid coils are grounded, you must use a separate isolation relay for
each load.
Any individual binary output (triac) can drive up to 800 mA when you limit the total 24 VAC power draw. You must
limit the power draw of a controller and its load to avoid heat dissipation problems.
Limit the total 24 VAC power draw of a VAV Controller installed in an enclosure to a maximum of 40 VA.
Limit the total 24 VAC power draw of a VAV Controller mounted in an open air environment to a maximum of
75 VA.

Application
The DX-9100, DX-9121, and DX-9200 Extended Digital Controllers are intended as a digital control solution for
multiple chiller or boiler plant control applications, for the HVAC process of custom or complex air handling units, or
for distributed lighting and related electrical equipment control applications. The controllers provide direct digital
control as well as programmed logic control functions.
Along with their inherent control flexibility, these controllers can expand their input and output point capability by
communicating with input/output expansion modules on an extension bus. They provide monitoring and control for
all connected points via a built-in LED display. These controllers communicate on the Metasys N2 Bus, the
Metasys LON Bus, the LON FTT10, and the XT Bus, providing point control to the Metasys Network.
The XT-9100 and XTM-905 Extension Modules and XP-910x and XPx Expansion Modules have been designed to
provide additional input and output capacity within Metasys Networks, specifically for the DX Series Controllers.
The XT-9100 and XTM-905 modules provide the communications interface, and the XP and XPx modules provide
the analog and digital inputs and outputs.
The XTM-105 is intended for the N2 Bus, and the XTM-905 works on the XT Bus of the DX controller series. Both
support the XPx expansion modules.
Mounting
Mount DX-9100, DX-9121, and DX-9200 controllers to satisfy the specified environment and ambient conditions.
Take extreme care when mounting these devices in high electromagnetic field environments. If they are located too
near devices that generate electromagnetic fields, the DX controller could malfunction.

Wiring
Do not mount the controller in heavy-duty switch gear cabinets or in cabinets with frequency-converting or phase-
cutting equipment. Low voltage wiring in electrical cabinets must be physically separated from line voltage and
power wiring. To avoid electrical interference in field cables:
• Keep input and output point cable runs as short as possible (less than 27.4 m [90 ft]).
• Use twisted pair cables.
• Run low voltage cables separately from line voltage/power cables.
• Do not run low voltage cables parallel to power cables for long distances (greater than 3 m [10 ft]).
• Do not run cables close to transformers or high frequency generating equipment.
• In high electromagnetic field environments, use shielded cable, grounding the drain wire at the controller
cabinet only.
• For the N2 communications bus, see N2 Communications Bus Guidelines on page 173.
• For the LONWORKS communications bus, wire according to LON Bus requirements. See LonWorks
Network Communications Bus Guidelines on page 305.

DX-9100 Series Controllers with XT, XTM, and XP Modules: Section 25 247
• Do not connect switched inductive loads to the 24 V transformer, which supplies the controller. When multiple
loads are connected to one transformer, cable each connected load from the transformer separately so that
any possible disturbances from one load has a minimal effect on other loads.
Wiring
• Make wire terminations via the terminal blocks on the upper and lower parts of the modules that accept
14 AWG (1 x 1.5 mm2) cable. See the respective procedures for details.
• Make terminations of the serial link bus cable via the connectors provided with the XT-9100 module.
• Use the connector cables that are provided with each module for connecting XT and XP modules over the
extension bus.
• Complete all wiring and connections to the XT and XP modules before applying power. The XT processor then
automatically configures itself to the connected XPs.
WARNING: Risk of Damage.

! The CMOS integrated circuits in the modules are sensitive to static. Take suitable precautions.

Note: Up to eight XT-9100s can be connected to a DX-9100, and each XT-9100 can support eight analog or eight
digital points.

Power Watchdog Circuit
The power watchdog circuit checks to see that power is getting to all modules; the XTM does not respond if there is
a problem. For the power watchdog circuit to operate properly, you must make sure that the last expansion module
connected to the XTM has the loopback (end-of-bus) jumper installed in the correct position on its connector for the
24 VAC module supply bus (Figure 25-25 on page 265).

TC-9102 Terminal Unit Controller
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
The TC-9102 Controller is a microprocessor-based DDC. It is designed for use with FCUs to control fan speed and
heating and cooling valves. The controller has heating and cooling setpoints for comfort, standby, and night modes.
The controller is configured using HVAC PRO, which assigns default operating parameters. The controller is
factory configured to control with default operating parameters and can be modified using HVAC PRO. Minimal
setup is required.
All TC-9102 controllers may be connected to an N2 Communications Bus to provide operating data to a
supervisory system and allow modification of operating procedures.

TC-9102
Figure 26-1: TC-9102 Controller Dimensions

Mounting
The TC-9102 Series controller is designed to be mounted within the fan coil unit housing or within a control cabinet.
Access is required for installation and maintenance workers. The mounting location must be clean and dry and not
subject to extreme heat or cold. The installation and electrical wiring must conform to local codes and should be
performed only by authorized personnel. Line voltage wiring must be separated from low voltage (30 VAC or less)
by 50 mm (2 in.). See Wiring on page 268 for more information.
Special Tools Needed
For a typical installation, you need the following:

Code No. LIT-410027 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 26 267
• HVAC PRO software, current version
• RS-485 converter (for N2 downloading, uploading, and commissioning). See N2 Communications Bus
Guidelines on page 173 for converter information.
• Laptop computer
• Screwdrivers (3.2 mm [1/8 in.] and 6.4 mm [1/4 in.] flat-head)
• Drill
To assist with mounting, see Figure 26-1 on page 267 for TC-9102 Controller dimensions.
Wiring
Power Source
• Terminations are made on the terminal blocks at each end of the controller. The low voltage terminal blocks
accept up to 16 AWG wires, and the fan control terminals accept up to 14 AWG wires.
• Separate the low voltage wiring from the line voltage wiring by a minimum of 50 mm (2 in.). Keep all cables as
short as possible and tie in position. To avoid induced noise, do not run cables close to transformers or
inductive loads.
• The 24 VAC supply must be stable and not shared with other switched inductive loads. An earth ground
(Terminal 2) is provided on the TC-9102 to add additional noise suppression on the power source, and should
be grounded.
• The TC-9102 Controller has an isolated transformer on board, allowing the user to share a single NEC Class 2
power transformer among multiple TC-9102 Controllers by running a power trunk from the single transformer to
several devices. Class 2 implies no more than 100 VA loading per transformer.
Note: If you use one low voltage power trunk for multiple controllers, follow these precautions:
• Ensure that polarity is maintained at each 24 VAC connection.
• Consider that some local electrical codes require that the secondary common of the stepdown transformer
be connected to earth ground (typically on units that are greater than 150 VAC). This ground must be at the
transformer secondary.
TC-9102

• Determine the total system load by adding all the actual loads to the basic load of the controller. See
Metasys System Cable and Wire Standards on page 465 for more information.
To meet the requirement for a UL installation, the following installation practices are required:
• The TC-9102 can be mounted directly into an FCU without the use of an additional enclosure, or
• The TC-9102 must be mounted into an enclosure when it is mounted remote from the FCU.
• In either case, the Class 1 line voltage fan control wiring from the TC-9102 must be routed away from all other
24 VAC power or communication (Class 2) wiring. Line voltage (>30 VAC) Class 1 and low voltage (30 VAC or
less) Class 2 wiring must be separated by at least 50 mm (2 in.) outside of enclosures and by 6.4 mm (.25 in)
inside enclosures.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage.

! Protect mechanical equipment, such as refrigeration equipment, that requires a minimum run time or
minimum off time with an appropriate time delay relay. Failure to incorporate such protection may
result in damage to the mechanical equipment.

Wiring Sensors and Actuators


The NTC temperature sensor has a higher impedance and therefore can use smaller diameter wire without offset
errors (see Table 26-3 on page 274). Use 18 to 24 AWG twisted pair wire for all sensor and output wiring
depending on line length. If shielding is used, it should be earth grounded at the controller end only.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage

! Do not run low-voltage cables or wires in the same conduit or wiring troughs with line-voltage wires.
Running low and line voltage wires in the same conduit or wiring troughs may damage the equipment
or cause system malfunction.

Wiring the N2 Bus
When the TC-9102 is wired to the N2 Communications Bus, it can receive commands from and transmit status
reports to a supervisory device over the Metasys Network. Connect the N2 Bus via the controller’s N2 Bus terminal
block (Figure 26-7 on page 275). Connect N2 + to RT+, N2- to RT-, and N2 REF to COM (N2 REF). For more
details on the N2 Bus, such as distance limitations and termination rules, see N2 Communications Bus Guidelines
on page 173.

Figure 26-7: Terminating N2 Bus Wires

Setting the N2 Address


The N2 address must be set and the N2 Bus tested for voltage, polarity, and isolation before actually wiring the
TC-9102 for operation. For setting the address, see Setting Device Addresses on the N2 Bus on page 185. For
testing N2 wiring, see N2 Communications Bus Guidelines on page 173.
Setup and Adjustment
Jumper Positions
To reach the jumpers and switches (Figure 26-8 on page 276), open the controller by gripping the cover with thumb
and finger on both sides above the center, and pull the cover off using the lower edge as a hinge. Replace the
cover by resting the lower edge of the cover against the base and then pressing the cover firmly to engage all four
retaining lugs.
Remove the JP2 Gain Jumper (Red) to reduce the proportional band to half of the factory setting or value entered
in the HVAC PRO configuration (gain x 2).

TC-9102
Remove the JP2 Integral Time Jumper (Blue) to perform proportional heating/cooling control only.

Installation Guidelines
IMPORTANT: Cover all RJ-style modular

masking tape when the cables are installed to
protect the connectors until the thermostats 1-11/32
are ready to be mounted. Considerable time 34

painted or covered with drywall mud must be Figure 27-1: TE-6700 Dimensions, in. (mm)
replaced before installing the thermostat.

TE-6700
IMPORTANT: If a preconfigured thermostat cable with RJ-45 jacks is installed in an EMT or conduit raceway, a
3/4 in. minimum raceway is required to provide sufficient space to effectively pull the cable and not damage the
cable or jack.

Plenum Cable Run Applications


Use RJ-type thermostats and preconfigured cables for plenum jobs where you can run open wiring. Since you do
not have to strip and terminate wire, running open wiring is much cheaper and more accurate than trying to crimp
cables in the field. See Table 45-8 on page 467 for additional information on preconfigured RJ-45 thermostat
cables.
Cables for EMT or Conduit Applications
Use standard cable and terminal screws for conduit jobs since RJ jacks do not pull through a conduit well, and
preconfigured cables are seldom the right length. If a preconfigured cable is used, you can cut off one end, pull the
cable, and then re-terminate with a new connector. See Table 45-9 on page 467 for additional information on
Metastat cables for EMT or conduit applications.

Surface Mount Applications
Special Tools Needed: Key-hole saw, 1/16 in. Allen wrench or
T-4000-119 Allen-head adjustment tool, Battery Drill or Screw Cover
Driver Screw
To mount the surface model to drywall:
1. Bend the top and bottom edges of the mounting base at
the perforations until they break off (Figure 27-5 on
page 283).
2. Cut a hole at the appropriate height and pull the wiring
through the hole.

IMPORTANT: Seal the hole or use an ACC-INSL-1 Foam


Pad Kit for Surface Mounting (ordered separately) to keep Cover Base
drafts from causing false temperature readings. If you are
using spring clips, a 35 mm (1-3/8 in.) hole is required.

3. Use the base as a template to mark the location of the two


mounting anchors, then make the holes, using the proper
tool.
4. If using spring clips, insert the clips on each side of the
35 mm (1-3/8 in.) hole, with the long leg of the spring clip
inside the wall. Use the spacers if needed, as shown in Figure 27-5: Removing the Breakaway Tabs
Figure 27-6 on page 283. Do not use the spacers for a
16 mm (5/8 in) hole.

IMPORTANT: Molly Bolts are strongly recommended for mounting sensors and thermostats because
thermostats in public high-traffic areas, such as hallways, tend to be bumped repeatedly. Sensor and
thermostats should never be mounted on drywall with plastic style anchors.

5. Pull the cable through the base of the TE-6700.


6. Rotate the mounting base so that one of the arrows on the base points upward.
7. Center the two holes in the base over the two mounting holes and fasten the base to the drywall.

Wiring
Keep cable run as short as possible to minimize sensor error. Each 76 m (250 ft) run of 18 AWG wire, or 15 m
(50 ft) of 24 AWG wire, creates 0.56°C (1°F) error for a nickel sensor or 0.83°C (1.5°F) error for a platinum sensor
due to wire resistance. To maintain less than 0.56°C (1°F) error for nickel or 0.83°C (1.5°F) error for platinum, hold
the total resistance of all sensor wiring below 3 ohms. When wiring the TE-6700, do not run low-voltage wiring in
the same conduit as line-voltage wiring or other conductors supplying highly inductive loads.
Terminal Block Wiring (TE-67xT Models)
Make connections pairing the following wires:

Connecting the TEC21xx to the N2 Bus
To connect the N2 Bus:
1. Set the N2 address of the TEC21x6(H)-2 Series Thermostat per the engineering drawings and test for bus
voltage, polarity, and isolation prior to wiring the N2 Bus. (See the Com addr parameter in Table 28-4 on
page 296 to set the N2 address for the thermostat.)
Note: To display the currently assigned N2 Bus address, press and hold the UP/DOWN arrow keys
simultaneously.
2. Observe the polarity when connecting the N2 Bus wires to the thermostat.
3. After the N2 Bus wires are connected to the first thermostat, continue in a daisy-chained fashion to the next
thermostat.
For more N2 Bus overview information, see N2 Communications Bus Guidelines on page 173 or refer to the N2
Communications Bus Technical Bulletin (LIT-636018) and the ASC and N2 Bus Networking and Troubleshooting
Guide (LIT-6363003).
The N2 Bus device address for the TEC is configured using the TEC configuration menus. There are no address
DIP switches to set. See Configuring the TEC21xx Series Thermostat on page 293 for more information.
Note: The TEC thermostat does not provide EOL termination. If the TEC terminates a bus segment on the N2 Bus
you must add an MS-BACEOL EOL Terminator module. See Related Documentation on page 301 for more
information. See Table 28-7 on page 301 for EOL Terminator ordering information.
Setup and Adjustments
TEC21xx Series Thermostat Operation Overview
User Interface Keys
The TEC21x6(H)-2 Series thermostat user interface
consists of five keys on the front cover (as illustrated in
Figure 28-9 on page 292). The function of each key is as
follows:
• MODE key toggles among the system modes
available, as defined by selecting the appropriate
operation sequence in the Installer Configuration
Menu (for example, Off, Heat, Cool, Auto).
• FAN key toggles among the fan modes available, as
defined by selecting the appropriate fan menu
options defined in the Installer Configuration Menu
(for example, Low, Med, High, Auto).

Backlit LCD
The TEC21xx Series thermostats include a 2-line, 8-character backlit display. Low-level backlighting is present
during normal operation, and it brightens when any user interface key is pressed. The backlight returns to low level
when the thermostat is left unattended for 45 seconds.
Cover LEDs
Three LEDs are included to indicate the fan status, call for heat, or call for cooling:
• The FAN LED is on when the fan is on.
• The HEAT LED is on when heating or reheat is on.
• The COOL LED is on when cooling is on.
Status Display Menu
The Status Display Menu is displayed during normal thermostat operation. This menu continuously scrolls through
the following parameters:
• Room Temperature (All Models) and Humidity (TEC2136-2, TEC2136H-2, TEC2156-2, and TEC2156H-2
Models)
• System Mode
• Schedule Status – Occupied/Unoccupied/Override
• Applicable Alarms – The backlight lights up as an alarm condition is displayed.
Note: An option is available within the Installer Configuration Menu to lock out the scrolling display and show only
the Room Temperature parameter.
Dehumidification Operation – TEC2136(H)-2 and TEC2156(H)-2 Thermostat Models
Upon detection of room humidity above the adjustable humidity setpoint as sensed by the integral humidity sensor,
dehumidification activates.
Note: Dehumidification operation functions only in the Cooling mode; dehumidification operation does not function
in either the Off or the Heating mode.
Note: A central network command can globally lock out dehumidification operation to all thermostats.
If the room temperature resides in the deadband between the Heating and Cooling setpoint:
• the thermostat forces the fan to low speed
• the chilled water valve opens to the specified maximum value set by CoolMax
• the thermostat stages Heating to maintain the room temperature at the Cooling setpoint, as sensed by the
thermostat
If the room temperature falls below the current Heating setpoint, the thermostat disables dehumidification

TEC21xx
operation.
If the thermostat is in Cooling demand:
• the chilled water valve opens to 100%
• the thermostat stages Heating to maintain the room temperature at the Cooling setpoint, as sensed by the
thermostat
If the thermostat is in Cooling demand and the room temperature rises 2F°/1C° above the Cooling setpoint, the
thermostat automatically disables dehumidification operation. Likewise, if the thermostat is in Cooling demand and
the room temperature falls below the current Heating setpoint, the thermostat disables dehumidification operation.
Configuring the TEC21xx Series Thermostat
The TEC21xx Series thermostat comes from the factory with default settings for all configurable parameters. The
default settings are shown in Table 28-4 on page 296. To reconfigure the parameters via the thermostat, follow
these steps:
1. Press and hold the center key for approximately 8 seconds to access the Installer Configuration Menu.
2. Release and press the center key to scroll through the parameters listed in Table 28-4 on page 296 until you
reach the desired parameter.

TEC21xx Series Thermostats: Section 28 293


3. Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose the desired selection option.
4. Press and release the center key to continue scrolling through the parameters.
Note: Pressing the FAN key during configuration restarts the list of displayed parameters at the first parameter
listed in Table 28-4 on page 296.
When the thermostat is in the Installer Configuration Menu and left unattended for approximately 8 seconds, the
thermostat reverts to the Status Display Menu.
Configuring Inputs BI1, BI2, and UI3
When BI1 and BI2 are configured for an alarm condition, an alarm condition is displayed locally when the input is
closed. An alarm message is included on the scrolling Status Display Menu and when the message is displayed,
the backlight momentarily lights up.
The UI3 input provides changeover of hot/cold water switching, or supply air temperature monitoring at the
thermostat.
Each input can be configured to the Selection Options included in Table 28-4 on page 296.
Configuring the Sequence of Operation (SeqOpera)
Choose the appropriate sequence of operation. The modes presented are user-dependent on the sequence of
operation selected. For two-pipe applications using a changeover sensor, choose the selection option
(0): Cooling only. Changeover occurs between Cooling only and Heating only.
Note: See Table 28-1 on page 289 and Figure 28-4 on page 290 for descriptions and locations of the terminals
called out in Table 28-2 on page 294 and Table 28-3 on page 295.

Default: None (Door Dry): Door contact only has an effect if BI1 is set to
MotionNO or MotionNC. (See the BI1 parameter earlier in this
table.) The occupancy is now dictated via BI1 and BI2. Any motion
detected sets the zone to Occupied status. The thermostat remains
in the occupied mode until a DoorOpen is detected, at which point
the thermostat goes to the unoccupied mode. If the door stays open
more than the specified door time, the thermostat remains
unoccupied. (See the Door Time parameter later in this table.)
TEC21xx

(RemOVR): Temporary occupancy request via a remote input. This


override function is controlled by a manual remote occupancy
override. When enabled, this condition disables the override
capability of the thermostat.

LONWORKS Network Bus Overview


The LONWORKS Network Communications Bus is based on a peer-to-peer communications network technology
developed by Echelon Corporation to provide an industry-standard local operating network. The network operates
at 78k baud over standard, twisted-pair wiring. The network is built around the Neuron chip, a microprocessor
which is an integral component of any LONWORKS compatible device.
The protocol types for LONWORKS systems currently supported by Johnson Controls are TP-1250, FTT-10, and
LONWORKS over IP. This document describes FTT-10 with LONWORKS over IP. Other LONWORKS protocols exist,
such as FT3120/FT3150 and TP-RS485. If you need information on these other protocols, refer to the pertinent
user guides, which can be downloaded from Echelon’s Web site at www.echelon.com.
LONWORKS Network Layout
The LONWORKS network is a free topology network, and devices can be connected to the network in a variety of
geometric configurations. For example, the devices can be daisy-chained from one device to the next
(bus topology) or connected with stub cables branching off from a main cable in a tree or star arrangement
(free topology). Or, a combination of these configurations can be mixed on the same network. Figure 29-1 on
page 305 shows a typical LONWORKS Network Bus topology.
Johnson Controls recommends installing systems using only the daisy-chained bus topology method. Free
topology networks shorten the distance of the bus, and can create situations where troubleshooting is more difficult
and end-of-line terminator placement is more difficult to determine. For more information on free topology, refer to
Johnson Controls technical literature or download information from Echelon’s website (www.echelon.com).
LONWORKS Network Components
Node
A node is any device containing a Neuron chip that communicates over the LONWORKS network. Examples of
nodes are controllers, network interfaces, and routers.
Router
A router is an active LONWORKS compatible device that physically connects two LONWORKS network segments. A
router can receive a message from one network segment, and make a decision as to whether the message needs
to be transmitted on the next segment.
Repeater
A repeater is a hardware device that connects two network segments. The repeater is used to extend the length of
the segment and/or allow more devices to be connected to it. Unlike a router, a repeater has no intelligence, so it
cannot selectively forward messages to reduce traffic in a segment and increase network capacity; in other words,
it forwards all messages.
Network Segment
A network segment is a physical segment of communications media, such as twisted-pair cable, that interconnects
LONWORKS compatible devices. Segments are interconnected by LONWORKS compatible routers or repeaters.

306 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


LONWORKS
BUS
Terminator
A terminator (end-of-line) is a resistor that typically sits at the Daisy-chained Bus Topology
physical ends of the network and acts as a damper, preventing
unwanted reflections of signals at the end of the wire. The type,
placement, and number of terminators required depends on the
topology of the network segment.
Network Topology Stub-wired Bus Topology
Figure 29-2 on page 307 shows the two basic types of bus
topology that can be used for LONWORKS network segments. The
daisy-chained bus topology is preferred. Other configurations,
including stub-wired, star, or loop, are acceptable only in rare
cases. If used, these configurations reduce the maximum distance
and number of nodes supported by two-thirds. With any topology, Legend:
the end of each segment is terminated with a 105 ohm 1% resistor LONWORKS Compatible Device

Cable Type and Segment Length


The LONWORKS network requires twisted-pair cable with two wires. See Metasys System Cable and Wire
Standards on page 465 for recommended cables. The maximum length of a channel segment depends on the
topology of the segment (bus or free), the type of cable used (cable size and quality), and the types of devices
connected to the segment. The tables in this section list the maximum Network segment lengths (i.e., total lengths
of continuous wiring between repeaters or routers).
Note: The maximum lengths presented in the specification table are absolute maximum values. Other factors that
affect network performance and reliability, such as noisy Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) environments or a
large distance between two individual devices on a free topology segment, may limit a segment to fewer devices or
shorter overall cable length. For the bus topology, the maximum length for a single stub cable is 3 m (10 ft), and the
stub lengths must be calculated into the overall segment length.
Number of Nodes per Network Segment
The maximum number of electrical drops (nodes/repeaters) allowed per network segment is 64. Note that
connections to routers or repeaters count as a node.
Installation Guidelines
When installing LONWORKS network wiring throughout a building, be aware of the following:
• Follow all NEC and local code restrictions.
• Do not exceed the maximum device limits given in this document.
• Do not run network cables close to transformers or high frequency generating equipment. We recommend the
use of a daisy-chained bus topology because it offers the maximum cable length, easier documenting,
troubleshooting and the lowest risk of communication errors.
• Run network and other low voltage cables separately from line voltage and power cables.

LONWORKS Network Communications Bus Guidelines: Section 29 307


LONWORKS
BUS

• For FTT-10 Bus wiring, the recommended cable is 22 AWG (1.5 mm2 or 0.6 mm diameter) cable. Do not use
wire of a thinner gauge because it breaks easily and reduces the performance of the network.
• Use the same cable type throughout the installation of any network segment.
• If shielded cable is used, install a 470k ohm,
1/4W, ±10% metal-film resistor between the Shielded Cable:
shield and ground at one location only Connect shields together Ground shield at

Devices Daisy Chain Wiring:
Each device can be wired to the network using stub

Wiring
Planning and Selecting Cables
LN ASC

• Plan the placement of cables used for inputs, outputs, communication, and power.
• Place input, output, power, and network cable to avoid the effects of ambient noise.
• Separate analog type cables for power, communication, inputs, and outputs from other types of cables.
Connectors
The board connectors accept wires or flat cables: 22-12 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²) per pole.
Connecting Power
To calculate the required transformer power:

24V AC/DC
• Add the power requirements of all the controllers and

COM
peripheral devices.
• Add the largest starting power of the group.
• Multiply this value by 1.3.
This value is the required transformer power.
Figure 30-2 on page 312 shows wiring connections to the power
source and fuse. The external fuse protects the outputs and all
AC
other equipment that is powered using the same transformer.
Note: Maintain consistent polarity when connecting controllers Fuse Transformer
and devices to the transformer. Connect the ground (COM) of each XVAC / 24VAC
controller and each peripheral to the same side of the transformer.
To other
The controllers have a half wave power supply. Connecting two equipment
half wave power supplies to the same transformer without
maintaining polarity causes a short circuit. The controller can use Figure 30-2: Power Connection and Fuses
24 VAC +/- 15% or 24 VDC.

LN Series Free Programmable Controllers
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
This document describes the hardware installation for the Metasys system LN Series Controllers. These
installation instructions cover the installation of the following controllers: LN-PRG12x-0, LN-PRG8x-0,

LN FPC
LN-PRG4x 0, LN-PRGRTU-0, and LN-PRG88C-0.
Note: Output plug-in connectors are on the top edge of the board. Power, input, network plug-in connectors and
the service button are on the bottom edge.
Mounting
Mounting holes in the FP board measure 7.9 mm (5/16 in.).
Wiring
Planning and Selecting Cables
Plan the placement of cables used for inputs, outputs, communication, and power.
Place the input, output, power, and network cables to avoid the effects of ambient noise. Analog type cables for
power, communication, inputs, and outputs must be separated from other types of cables.
Connectors
The board connectors accept wires or flat cables: 22-12 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²) per pole.
Connecting Power

24V AC/DC
The controller is protected by two 5 ampere
removable fuses against power surges and short
circuits. To calculate the required transformer power:
COM
1. Add the power requirements of all controllers
and peripheral devices.
2. Add the largest starting power of the group.
3. Multiply this value by 1.3.
This value is the required transformer power.
Figure 31-1 on page 321 shows wiring connections
to the power source and fuse. Connect the FP circuit Fuse
board to ground using the terminal marked GND. AC
This ground is for static discharge. The terminal can
be connected to the screw of mounting kit. The
Transformer
external fuse protects the outputs and the other
XVAC / 24VAC
equipment powered by the transformer.
Note: Maintain consistent polarity when connecting To other
controllers and devices to the transformer. The equipment
ground of each controller and each peripheral should
be connected to the same side of the transformer. Figure 31-1: Power Connections and Fuses
The free programmable controllers are a half wave
power supply. Connecting two half wave power supplies to the same transformer without maintaining polarity
causes a short circuit. The FP can use 24 VAC +/- 15% or 24 VDC.
Ground the Board
Connect the FP circuit board to ground using the terminal marked GND. This ground is for static discharge. The
terminal can be connected to the screw of the mounting kit.

Code No. LIT-410032 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 31 321
Wiring the Inputs
The inputs for all controllers (except the
LN-PRG88C-0) are jumper configurable. The
wiring diagrams provide the jumper setting for
I1 I2 I3 I4 I5
each input type. The jumper settings are also + – + – + – + – +
printed on the board of the controller and on 180
the cover. The number of inputs available on
each controller varies according to the second
LN FPC

part of the model name (for example, four


inputs on the LN-PRG4x-0 and 8 inputs on the
LN-PRG8x-0). The LN-PRGRTU-0 is the only
exception and it has eight inputs. The jumper

Outputs Controller V+ 0 – 10VDC
The number of outputs on the FP board varies according to
the second part of the model name (for example, 4 inputs on Sensor
the LN-PRG4x-0 and 8 inputs on the LN-PRG8x-0). The + –
LN-PRGRTU-0 is the only exception and it has eight inputs.
The letter following each device name determines the output Jumper

HOA Switch and Jumper
The LN-PRG88C-0 model features a HOA switch on each of its outputs. SWITCH SELECTION
Figure 31-8 on page 325 illustrates the switch positions.
There is also a jumper location just to the left of the HOA on Output 7.
Removing this jumper disables the ON position of all HOA switches on
the controller; therefore, if any of the other switches are set to ON, their
ON
output is actually OFF. The AUTO position, however, is still active.

LN Series VAV/VVT Profile Application Controllers
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
The Metasys system LN Series VAV and VVT Controllers are zone controllers for VAV, VVT, and peripheral
heating and cooling applications. They are normally mounted on the damper shaft.
The VAV and VVT controllers have five inputs. If required, one input can accept a CO2 sensor. An onboard
differential air pressure sensor is included with hose attachments for VAV applications.
The VAV and VVT Controllers have three digital outputs and one analog output. They require:

VAV/VVT
• relative humidity of 0 to 90% (noncondensing) and an ambient operating temperature of 32 to 158°F (0 to
70°C)

LN
• 24 VAC power; an external fuse, and Class 2 wiring
Connectors for the inputs, outputs, power, and network wires are on the right side of the unit. The connectors are
labeled and easily accessible.
Mounting
Mount the controller directly on the air damper shaft.
Choose a mounting location that allows easy access to min. 40mm (1.5")
the cover and connectors.
Attach the controller to the shaft with the supplied metal
bracket as shown in Figure 32-1 on page 335.
The casing bracket is equipped with a mounting kit as
shown in Figure 32-2 on page 335. The mounting kit
secures the controller in its position by opposing the shaft
torque.
Install the mounting kit screw. Make sure that nothing
prevents the damper from opening and closing easily.

For applications where multiple VAV and VVT Controllers are supplied from a common 24 VAC transformer, you
must maintain polarity throughout, or short circuits ampere result.
Also, you must use 24 VAC for the VAV and VVT controllers. Other voltages are not acceptable. When the outputs
are configured as powered outputs, the 24 VAC is switched directly to the outputs.
The external fuse on the profile application controllers (LN-VAVLx-0 and LN-VVTLx-0) protects other equipment
powered by the transformer.

Materials and Special Tools Needed sections in each device’s specific section.
Typically, no mounting hardware is shipped with controllers or sensors, and it is the responsibility of the installer to
supply any material or hardware required to mount the controllers and sensors. Use durable mounting hardware of
sufficient quality to ensure that the installation can endure for the life of the product. Some of the guidelines in this
section provide information on appropriate mounting hardware for installing the product. You should refer to the
product manufacturer’s Technical Literature and Product Installation Instructions for additional information on the
required installation material and hardware.

General Guidelines for Transporting, Receiving, and Storing Controllers and Sensors on page 13.
Applications
The wireless Metasys products within a Metasys system are ideal for any location where it is cost-prohibitive,
difficult, or aesthetically unappealing to hardwire between Metasys products. Examples of these locations include
the following:
• hospitals, office buildings, university campuses, educational facilities, correctional facilities, and other
commercial structures with brick or solid concrete walls and/or ceilings that impede hard-wired applications
• office buildings, retail stores, and other commercial real estate where tenant turnover is frequent and
temporary walls and ceilings are common
• museums, historical buildings, atriums, and other sites where building aesthetics and historical preservation
are important
• stadiums, arenas, gymnasiums, convention centers, airports, zoos, and other locations with large, open
spaces
• buildings with marble, granite, glass, mirrored, wood veneer, or other decorative surfaces that present
challenges to hard-wiring
• buildings with asbestos or other hazardous materials that must not be disturbed
• buildings with occupants sensitive to disruptions to business

• regions with high labor costs
Applications to Avoid
Locations or applications that prohibit cellular telephones or WiFi systems are unsuitable for the wireless Metasys
products. Examples include:
• operating rooms or radiation therapy rooms
• validated environments
• UL 864 Smoke Control applications
• department of defense applications requiring Diacap certification (for example, military bases and military
hospitals)
Do not use the wireless Metasys products in applications that cannot tolerate intermittent interference, or where:
• critical control features would impact life-safety or result in large monetary loss, including secondary (backup)
life-safety applications
• data centers, production lines, or critical areas would be shut down
• loss of critical control would result from loss of data from humidity or temperature sensor communications
• operation of exhaust fans or AHUs would impair a purge or pressurization mode
• missing data would invalidate reporting required by the customer
• security points are monitored
• annunciation of offline conditions in less than 5 minutes is required
Wireless Transmission Distances
The effective transmission distances can vary per application because of wireless signal absorption and reflection
due to metal obstructions, walls (or floors), and furniture found in typical building interiors.

IMPORTANT: Indoor line of sight transmission ranges between products can be less than shown in Table 33-1
on page 347 through Table 33-8 on page 361.

General Location and Estimating Guidelines
Observe the guidelines and procedures in this section for determining the optimum location for wireless Metasys
systems.
Positioning the wireless Metasys products in the optimum locations with direct, unobstructed, line-of-sight signal
paths enhances the wireless signal strengths between associated products and typically reduces the number of
wireless products required for your application. To help illustrate, Figure 33-2 on page 349 shows an example of a
line of sight path for a WRS Many-to-One wireless sensing system.

To perform the procedures for locating the components of your wireless Metasys systems, you need the following:
• a detailed copy of the job site floor plans for the proposed application site with the wall locations, column
locations, mechanical rooms, elevator shafts, stairwells, metal duct work, chases and risers, and other large
metal obstructions shown. The plans should also include the proposed mechanical/HVAC zone layout and
wireless device locations.
• a copy of the job site architectural and mechanical specifications with the construction materials defined
• information on the dimensions, materials, and the general location of the furnishings and other mobile content
installed in the occupied application space (for example, file cabinets, shelving units, partitions, displays, and
other large metal items that can obstruct wireless signals)
• several different colored pens or markers for identifying zone and area boundaries, wireless Metasys product
locations, and signal obstructions. Examples of MOs include:
• interior building features such as elevator shafts, stairwells, mechanical or electrical equipment rooms,
equipment chases for HVAC, plumbing and electrical risers, metal reinforced walls, concrete walls, cinder
blocks, glass walls with metal coating, and large metal-reinforced columns and pillars
• office equipment and furnishings such as computer racks, many rows of tall file cabinets and book shelves,
metal partitions, and displays
Examples of minor obstructions include several rows of cabinets or shelves, metal light fixtures, multiple small
pillars, sheetrock walls with metal or wood studs, and glass walls without metal coating. For estimating
purposes, several small or minor obstructions can be grouped and considered a single MO.

Wireless Device Location and Mounting Considerations: Section 33 349


WIRELESS
LOCATE

Follow these general guidelines when locating your wireless products:


• Locate the wireless Metasys products so they are easily accessible.
• Locate the wireless products in direct, line of sight to as many other wireless products within the same wireless
network.
• Avoid metal, concrete, and brick obstructions (including equipment rooms and elevator shafts) between the
wireless products.
• Locate the ZFR1810 Coordinators, TEC Coordinators, and WRS-RTN or TE-7800 Receivers in an elevated
position in the space, above furniture, cabinets, shelves, and other obstructions.
• For best signal transmission on ZFR1810 Coordinators, TEC Coordinators, and WRS-RTN or TE-7800
Receivers, which all have external antennas, vertically orient the external antenna with at least 50 mm (2 in.)
exposed below and clear of any pipes, duct work, or other metal obstructions.
• For best signal transmission on ZFR1811 Routers, wireless TEC thermostat controllers, WRZ sensors, and
WRS sensors which all have internal antennas, vertically mount these products.
• Do not mount the wireless Metasys product in recessed areas, metal enclosures, or shelving units unless the
antenna can be positioned outside of the recessed area or enclosure.
• Locate the wireless Metasys products that are within a wireless network on the same floor or building level as
the associated wireless products in the same wireless network. For example, locate ZFR1810 Coordinators,
ZFR1811 routers and WRZ sensors on the same floor.
For best temperature sensing and control, follow the same best practices used to locate a hard-wired temperature
control, sensor, or thermostat when locating sensors and TECs:
• Avoid enclosed or recessed locations and locations behind curtains, doors, or other obstructions to the
controlled space.
• Avoid locations near entry foyers, doors, windows, supply air ducts, and pipes.
• Avoid locations that are exposed to drafts, direct sunlight, and other sources of heat or cooling.
• Avoid locations where the wireless products could be exposed to excessive vibration.
• Locate the wireless products on an interior wall where it is easily accessible, at least 1.4 m (54 in.) above the
floor, in an area where the temperature is representative of the entire zone.
ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System
Follow the steps in this section to determine the optimum location for the ZFR1810 Coordinator and ZFR1811
Routers in your ZFR1800 Series system applications and to estimate the number of additional repeaters required.
ZFR1811 Router locations are determined by:
• the locations of the controlled equipment
• the locations of the associated field controllers and WRZ sensors
• the physical characteristics of the applications space
• the obstructions in the application space
Follow these rules:
• Every WRZ-TTx Sensor should be within 15 m (50 ft) (recommended) of at least two ZFR1811 Routers.
• Every ZFR1811 Router should be within 15 m (50 ft) (recommended) of at least two other ZFR1811 Routers.
• The ZFR1810 Coordinator should be within 15 m (50 ft) (recommended) of at least two ZFR1811 Routers.
• If any WRZ-TTX Sensor, ZFR1811 Router, or ZFR1810 Coordinator is not within 15 m (50 ft) (recommended)
of at least two other ZFR1811 Routers, then use ZFR1811 Routers and ZFRRPT Repeater accessories to
function as repeaters to serve this purpose of providing multiple wireless data pathways.
• The maximum distance between the ZFR1810 Coordinator and the farthest ZFR1811 Router should be less
than 76.2 m (250 ft).

convenient method for testing the signal strength and provides additional diagnostics for the ZFR1800 system.
Note: If a ZFR1811 Router shows poor signal strength, you may be able to improve the signal strength by
rotating the ZFR1811 Router. If this does not help, then additional ZFR1811 Routers and ZFRRPT repeater
accessories serving as repeaters may be required.
TEC Series Wireless Thermostat Controller System
Follow the steps in this section to locate your TEC Series Wireless Thermostat Controller System products. Follow
these rules:
• The recommended distance between every TEC wireless thermostat controller should be 10 m (30 ft) through
walls, and 30 m (100 ft) in open spaces.
• Every TEC wireless thermostat controller should be within a wireless transmission range of at least two other
TEC wireless thermostat controllers.
• The TEC Coordinator should be within a wireless transmission range of at least two TEC wireless thermostat
controllers.
• If a TEC wireless thermostat controller is not within wireless transmission range of at least two TEC wireless

WRS Series Many-to-One Wireless Room Temperature Sensing System
Follow the steps in this section to estimate and locate your Many-to-One wireless room temperature sensing
system.
Estimating WRS Receiver Quantities
The following procedure is typically a pre-sale exercise used to establish material estimates for a proposed
Many-to-One application. The actual number of receivers required for the application may vary from the estimate
generated by this procedure. Typically, final installed applications require fewer receivers than the pre-sale
estimate.
To estimate and locate WRS receiver quantities:
1. Divide each floor or building in the Many-to-One application into defined logical rectangular areas and
determine the approximate length and width of each area. Mark the area boundaries and dimensions on your
copy of the plans.
Note: Estimate the required receivers for the total application area on each floor or building level area
separately. Wireless transmissions may pass through floors, but through-floor signal paths are not
recommended.
2. Within each defined area, determine or estimate the total number of large or MOs that most likely could block
line-of-sight wireless signal paths between sensors and associated receivers.

356 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


WIRELESS
LOCATE
3. See Table 33-6 on page 357 to determine the number of receivers required for each defined area in your
application based on the approximate length and width of the defined area and the number of MOs within the
defined area.
Examples of MOs include:
• interior building features such as elevator shafts, stairwells, mechanical or electrical equipment rooms,
equipment chassis for HVAC, plumbing and electrical risers, metal reinforced walls, concrete walls, cinder
block walls, glass walls with metal coating, and large metal-reinforced columns and pillars
• office equipment and furnishings such as computer racks, many rows of tall file cabinets and book shelves,
metal partitions, and displays.
Any MOs that are located on the exterior boundary of the application area (and not in the wireless line of sight
signal paths) should not be included in your estimate.
For estimating purposes, several small or minor obstructions can be grouped and considered a single MO.
Examples of minor obstructions include fixtures, multiple small pillars, sheetrock walls with metal or wood
studs, and glass walls without metal coating.
4. Add the receiver estimates from each defined area to determine the total number of receivers required for your
entire Many-to-One application.

To perform the steps for locating the Many-to-One products, you need the following:
• the WRS sensors configured and mounted in their final locations or an unmounted WRS sensor (and the
sensor locations identified)
• a WRS receiver, or (preferred) a combination of a WRS Series wireless sensing system tool and a laptop
computer
Locating WRS Many-to-One Sensors
When installing WRS Many-to-One Sensors:
• Locate the sensor on the same building level or floor as the receiver
Note: Wireless transmissions may pass through floors, but through-floor signal paths are not recommended.
• Locate the sensor in direct line of sight to the receiver wherever possible.
• Avoid metal obstructions (including equipment rooms and elevator shafts) between the receiver and the
sensor.
• Do not locate the sensor in recessed areas or metal enclosures.
Note: A WRS receiver can be located in a metal enclosure if the antenna is exposed outside of the enclosure.
• Do not mount a sensor less than 0.6 m (2 ft) from the receiver.
Locating WRS Many-to-One Receivers
Follow these steps to determine the optimum location for the WRS receivers in your Many-to-One applications.
To locate Many-to-One receivers:
1. Inspect the building plans floor by floor (section by section on each floor if necessary) and mark the locations of
all WRS sensors on the plans.
2. Highlight all of the obstructions on the building floor plans. Mark major and minor obstructions with different
colors. Examples of major obstructions include:
• interior building features such as elevator shafts, stairwells, mechanical or electrical equipment rooms,
equipment chases for HVAC, plumbing and electrical risers, metal reinforced walls, concrete walls, cinder
block walls, glass walls with metal coating, and large metal-reinforced columns and pillars
• office equipment and furnishings such as computer racks, many rows of tall file cabinets and book shelves,
metal partitions, and displays
Any major obstructions that are located on the exterior boundary of the application area (and not in the wireless
line of sight signal paths) should not be included in your estimate.
For estimating purposes, several small or minor obstructions can be grouped and considered a single MO.
Examples of minor obstructions include fixtures, multiple small pillars, sheetrock walls with metal or wood
studs, and glass walls without metal coating
3. For each floor or defined section on the plans, visually group the WRS sensors into logical groups that appear
able to associate with a single receiver. Mark and identify each of these logical groups.
Some points to observe as you group sensors:

358 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


WIRELESS
LOCATE
• Group clusters of sensors that are close together and not separated by a major obstruction
• In large unobstructed areas, all of the sensors within a 122 m (400 ft) or smaller diameter circle can be
considered a single group
• Some sensors may not be located in or near the logical/visual grouping. (These outlying sensors are
addressed in Step 5.)
4. For each identified sensor group, assume that one receiver, located near the center of the group, can
associate with all the sensors in the group. Mark the approximate optimum location for each receiver
associated with a sensor group. There may be a range of optimum locations for the receiver within the sensor
groups. If there is a range of receiver locations, mark and identify that range.
Note: It may be determined later in this procedure that two or more adjacent sensor groups can be associated
to a single receiver.
5. Identify and mark any outlying single sensors that are located away from the discrete logical groups you have
identified. For each of these outlying sensors, determine the optimum (identified) receiver location or receiver
range (determined in Step 4) with which the outlying sensor can be associated.
Some points to observe when determining which receiver should associate with an outlying sensor:
• Look for direct unobstructed line of sight signal paths between the outlying sensor and available receiver
locations.
• The closest receiver is not necessarily the best option. Look for the receiver with direct unobstructed line of
sight signal paths that are less than 61 m (200 ft).
• If there is only a minor obstruction between a sensor and receiver, you can assume a 30 m (100 ft) signal
transmission limit. Associate the sensor to the closest receiver within that limit.
6. Assume that any major obstruction or combination of multiple minor obstructions in the line of sight path
between a sensor and receiver blocks the wireless signal transmission.
7. Perform these steps for all areas in the Many-to-One application. Look for areas with sensor groups that can be
combined into a single group with one associated receiver.
8. When all the interior walls and furnishings are in place, return to the site and perform a follow-up signal
strength survey of the Many-to-One application to ensure that all the sensors are maintaining adequate signal
strength with their associated receivers.
WRZ-SST-100 Wireless Sensing System Tool
The WRZ-SST-100 Wireless Sensing System Tool is a lightweight, portable, wireless receiver designed to receive
wireless data transmissions from WRZ-TTx Series Sensors in one-to-one sensing system site survey applications.
It also serves as a signal test receiver or site survey tool prior to installing a ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus
System.
Use the WRZ-SST-100 Sensing System Tool prior to installation to verify the optimum locations for
WRZ-TTx Series Sensors and WRZ-7840-0 Receivers in wireless room temperature sensing system applications;
or for ZFR1810 Coordinators, ZFR1811 Routers, and WRZ-TTx Series Sensor in wireless field bus applications.
Detailed Procedure

IMPORTANT: If there are other wireless mesh networks in the area, ensure that the PAN Address of the WRZ-
7840 Receiver and WRZ-TTx Sensor (set by the TRANSMITTER ID and AREA DIP Switches) is different from
the PAN ID of those wireless mesh networks.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that one or more AREA DIP switches are set to ON. The devices do not work if all AREA
DIP switches are set to OFF.

Note: Ensure the power switches on the WRZ-7840 Receiver and WRZ-TTx Sensor are set to OFF before
proceeding.
1. Set the TRANSMITTER ID and AREA DIP switches on the WRZ-7840 Receiver and the WRZ-TTx Sensor to
the same address.

Note: Connecting a battery pack to the receiver changes the WRZ-7840 Receiver into the WRZ-SST-100 Tool.
4. Turn the battery pack switch to ON.
5. For a One-to-One wireless system, place the WRZ-SST-100 Tool in the location where the WRZ-7840
Receiver would be located, and place the WRZ-TTx Sensor in the location you intend to mount this device.
For a ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System, place the WRZ-TTx Sensor in a desired location for a
ZFR1811 Router and place the WRZ-SST-100 Tool in a desired location for a ZFR1811 Router or ZFR1810
Coordinator.
6. Power on the test sensor and allow it to establish communications with the WRZ-SST-100 Tool. When
communication is established, the RF signal LED on the WRZ-SST-100 Tool blinks (Figure 33-9 on page 360).
If communication is not established within 15 seconds, press the manual occupancy override button on the
WRZ-TTX sensor to force another communication attempt. The occupancy button is shown in Figure 33-9 on
page 360.
7. Once the sensor establishes communication with the WRZ-SST-100 Tool, press the occupancy button for
5 seconds to force the test sensor into RTM.

8. Hold the WRZ-SST-100 Tool in the location desired and record the number of blinks of the RF LED every
10 seconds. See Table 33-7 on page 361.
Table 33-7: WRZ-SST-100 Tool: Wireless Signal Strength
Number of Blinks: RF Signal Strength LED Signal Strength
3 Excellent
2 Good
1 Weak
0 None

If the signal strength is less than Good, you may have to move the location of either device until an Excellent or
Good signal strength is indicated.
Move on to the next location, and repeat Steps 1 through 9 as necessary.
9. When testing is finished, turn off the battery switch on the WRZ-SST-100 Tool and the power switch on the test
sensor.
Operation
Wireless Signal Strength
RF signal strength LED indicates the strength of the wireless signal between the sensor and the associated
sensing system receiver, expressed as Excellent, Good, or Weak. The tool has an LED that blinks off one, two, or
three times for every transmission to indicate the signal strength between the sensor and tool, or router/coordinator
and tool. See Table 33-7 on page 361.
RTM and RF Signal Strength LEDs
Normally, the sensor transmits every 60 seconds; however, pressing and holding the manual occupancy override
button on a WRZ-TTx Series Sensor for 5 seconds or more forces the sensor into RTM. In RTM, a WRZ-TTx
Series Sensor sends a data transmission once every 10 seconds. The sensors remain in RTM up to a total of
30 transmissions. After each transmission, the LED of the sensor flashes (LED Off to On) to indicate the signal
strength between the sensor and WRS-SST-100 Tool. The WRS-SST-100 Tool blinks (LED on to off) to indicate the
wireless signal strength.
For additional information, refer to the WRZ-7840 Series One-to-One Wireless Room Temperature Sensing

Application
IMPORTANT: The ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System is not designed or intended for use in mission-
ZFR1810

critical or life/safety applications.

IMPORTANT: Before installing the ZFR1810 Coordinator in plenum applications, verify acceptance of exposed
plastic materials in plenum areas with the local building authority. Building codes for plenum requirements vary
by location.
Some local building authorities accept compliance to UL 1995, Heating and Cooling Equipment, while others use
different acceptance criteria.

A ZFR1810 Wireless Field Bus Coordinator provides a wireless interface between field controllers equipped with a
ZFR1811 Router and a NAE35/45/55 or NCE25 supervisory controller. Each wireless mesh network requires one
ZFR1810 Coordinator, which initiates the formation of the network.
Note: The ZFR1810 Coordinator (and the ZFR1811 Routers) must be at the same Metasys system release
version as the wirelessly enabled FEC/VMA16x0 field controller. For information on uploading or downloading the
devices to match, refer to the Loading Devices chapter of the CCT Help (LIT-12011147).
A ZFR1810 Coordinator can operate from either of two power sources:
• a 24 VAC, Class 2 power source when used with an NAE55 supervisory controller
• 15 VDC power provided from the FC Bus Jack on most Field Equipment or Supervisory Controllers that are
connected directly to the FC Bus.
The ZFR1810 Coordinator features a remote-mount antenna and cable to allow transmission when the NAE35/45/
55 or NCE25 is mounted inside a metal panel.
Mounting
See Wireless Device Location and Mounting Considerations on page 345 for location and mounting guidelines
specific to wireless products, including the ZFR1810 Coordinator. For general guidelines on determining mounting
locations and installing wired network controllers and sensors, see Locating and Installing HVAC Controllers and
Sensors on page 13.
Follow these additional guidelines when installing a ZFR1810 Coordinator:
• Locate the ZFR1810 Coordinator near the center of the associated array of ZFR1811 Routers.
• At a minimum, position a ZFR1810 Coordinator within 15.2 m (50 ft) of at least two ZFR1811 Routers.
• At a minimum, position all ZFR1811 Routers within 15.2 m (50 ft) of at least two other ZFR1811 Routers or one
ZFR1811 Router and the ZFR1810 Coordinator.
• Locate the ZFR1810 Coordinator on the same floor as the associated ZFR1811 Router and
WRZ-TTx Sensors.
• Test the transmission signal strength between the ZFR1810 Coordinator and the associated ZFR1811 Router
and WRZ-TTx Sensors to ensure a reliable mesh network is in place.
• Avoid metal obstructions and concrete or brick walls between the ZFR1810 Coordinator and the associated
ZFR1811 Router and WRZ-TTx Sensors.
For detailed information on location guidelines for a ZFR1800 Series system, and for estimating the number of
ZFR1811 Routers needed as repeaters for extending wireless transmission range, refer to the Wireless Metasys
System Location Guide (LIT-12011294).

2. Using the bracket as a template, drill two 3/32 in. (2 mm) pilot holes into the enclosure.
3. Screw the bracket into place using the supplied self-tapping mounting screws
Mounting the Antenna Using RFT
When sold as part of a panel assembly, six pieces of RFT are supplied with the unit. Use this tape between the
antenna bracket and the enclosure. To mount the antenna using RFT:
1. Ensure all mounting surfaces are clean and free of dust, oils, and debris before applying the RFT.
2. Remove the adhesive backing on two pieces of RFT and place one piece on the bottom of each antenna
bracket mounting foot.
3. Affix a mating piece of RFT onto each piece of RFT on the mounting bracket so that the fasteners mesh
together. Remove the adhesive backing on the mating pieces.
4. Center the bracket over the 7/8 in. (22 mm) round bushing and apply the bracket to the top of the panel. Push
down on the feet of the bracket until you feel the fasteners lock into position and the adhesive bonding to the
panel is completely attached.
Note: Extra pieces of RFT are provided so that you can change the mounting location on the top of the panel at a
later date if necessary.
Attaching the Antenna to the ZFR1810 Coordinator
To attach the antenna to the ZFR1810 Coordinator:
1. Remove the top cover of the ZFR1810 Coordinator by simultaneously pushing in both flexible tabs on one side
of the unit, followed by pushing in the tabs on the other side of the unit.
2. Remove the top portion of the unit.
3. Apply the antenna wire firmly to the connection point (see Figure 34-1 on page 365) until it locks into place.

IMPORTANT: The connection from the antenna cable to the ZFR1810 Coordinator is intended to be made only
once. Do not remove it once you have inserted it into the jack. If you must remove the antenna, disassemble the
case of the ZFR1810 Coordinator and remove the antenna from the jack by pulling on the knurled end of the
antenna's connector only. Pulling on the antenna cable from anywhere else can result in damage to the antenna.
Avoid any repeat removals and re-insertions as this may impact wireless connection integrity and unit
performance.

4. Replace the top portion and cover of the ZFR1810 Coordinator.


Wiring
See General Guidelines for Wiring Metasys System Networks on page 17 for general wiring guidelines.
In addition, follow these guidelines when wiring the ZFR1810:
• Mount the ZFR1810 securely before wiring it.
• Route the wires at least 50 mm (2 in.) away from the vent slots on the sides of the ZFR1810 Coordinator
housing.
• Provide slack in the wires. Keep wires routed neatly around the ZFR1810 Coordinator to promote good
ventilation, LED visibility, and ease of service.

IMPORTANT: Before installing the ZFR1810 Coordinator in plenum applications, verify acceptance of exposed
plastic materials in plenum areas with the local building authority. Building codes for plenum requirements vary
by location.
Some local building authorities accept compliance to UL 1995, Heating and Cooling Equipment, while others
use different acceptance criteria.

368 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


IMPORTANT: Do not connect the ZFR1810 Coordinator to the power supply before setting the PAN OFFSET
switches.

ZFR1810
Power Input and Communication
Wiring for power input and communication uses one of two methods: terminal blocks or the FC Bus jack.
Terminal Blocks - Power
Use a 24 VAC nominal, 50/60 Hz, Class 2 power supply to power the ZFR1810 Coordinator. See Table 34-3 on
page 374 for recommended Johnson Controls transformers.
Connect the 24 VAC supply power wires from the transformer to the HOT and COM terminals of the 24 V~ three-
position screw terminal pluggable block as shown in Figure 34-4 on page 369 and Figure 34-1 on page 365. The
middle terminal is not used.
Note: Transformers not manufactured by
Johnson Controls may have different color wires. Follow ZFR1810
the manufacturer’s instructions when mounting and wiring Supply Power
transformers. Terminal Block

Power Supply Output
IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the power supply output of the ZFR1810 Coordinator. The ZFR1810
ZFR1810

Coordinator’s power supply input must be able to source the ZFR1810 Coordinator and the connected external
devices. Exceeding the power supply input limits may cause the ZFR1810 Coordinator to shut down.

Use a six conductor SA Bus RS-485 cable with RJ45 connectors to connect an external Metasys device to the FC
BUS OUT jack as shown in Figure 34-1 on page 365.
Setup and Adjustments
PAN Offset

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the PAN Offset switches are set to the same value for the ZFR1810 Coordinator and
each associated ZFR1811 Router, and WRZ-TTx Sensor in a mesh network.

IMPORTANT: Set DIP switch 128 to On for all MS/TP controllers that are to communicate with the ZFR1800
Series Wireless Field Bus system. This setting enables wireless mode on the controller. For details, see the
specific guidelines document for the controller in this book.

Set the PAN Offset value of the ZFR1810 Coordinator using the DIP switches to configure the ZFR1810
Coordinator to communicate with the ZFR1811 Routers assigned to it. See Figure 34-1 on page 365 for the
location of the switches and Figure 34-6 on page 371 for an example.
The PAN Offset value equals the sum of the numbers set to ON. For example, if the DIP switches labeled
1, 4, and 8 are set to ON, the PAN Offset value is 13 (1 + 4 + 8 = 13). As a best practice for setting these switches,
set the highest switch value first, then the next highest switch value, and so on, until the total of the switch values
equal the intended device address.
When selecting a PAN Offset value for a wireless system:
• Use a unique PAN Offset value for each wireless mesh network at a job site.
• Use the same PAN Offset value for each wireless device in a wireless mesh network - the
ZFR1810 Coordinator and each associated ZFR1811 Router and WRZ-TTx Sensor.

370 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


PAN Offset and MS/TP Address Interaction
If the Metasys system is at Release 4.0, set the MS/TP address of the ZFR1810 Coordinator to 2.

ZFR1810
If the Metasys system is at Release 4.1 and later, the MS/TP address of the ZFR1810 Coordinator is no longer
fixed at 2. The new address is 120 plus the value summation of switch 8, switch 7, and switch 6 of the PAN
Offset, giving an MS/TP address range of 120 to 127. See the example in Figure 34-6 on page 371.
Note: Only the values associated with Switches 6, 7, and 8 that are set to the ON position count towards the
MS/TP address.

Application
IMPORTANT: The ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System is not designed or intended for use in mission-
critical or life/safety applications.

IMPORTANT: Before installing the ZFR1811 Router in plenum applications, verify acceptance of exposed
plastic materials in plenum areas with the local building authority. Building codes for plenum requirements vary
by location.
Some local building authorities accept compliance to UL 1995, Heating and Cooling Equipment, whereas others
use different acceptance criteria.

A ZFR1811 Wireless Field Bus Router is used with an FEC16x0, FEC26x0, or VMA1600 Series field controller.
The ZFR1811 Router provides a wireless interface between:
• a field controller and the supervisory engine (by way of a ZFR1810 Coordinator)
• a field controller and its associated WRZ-TTx Series Wireless Mesh Room Temperature Sensors
Up to four WRZ-TTx Series Sensors can be associated with a single ZFR1811 Router. In multi-sensor applications,
the ZFR1811 Router passes all the sensors’ data to a VMA1600 or FEC controller, which can be configured to
either average the sensors’ temperature input or select the highest or lowest sensed temperature for control of the
target zone.
A ZFR1811 Router can be powered directly from the connected field controller’s 15 VDC output. It can also be
powered by the power supply in the Repeater Accessory Kit (MS-ZFRRPT-0) to serve as a stand-alone repeater,
extending the range of the communications within the wireless mesh network.

Code No. LIT-410036 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 35 377
Note: The ZFR1811 Routers (and the ZFR1810 Coordinator) must be at the same Metasys system release
version as the wirelessly enabled FEC/VMA16x0 field controller. For information on uploading or downloading the
devices to match, refer to the Loading Devices chapter of the CCT Help (LIT-12011147).
Mounting
When mounting the ZFR1811 Router to an enclosure, Proper Mounting Orientation
mount it to the top, bottom, or side of the enclosure, as
ZFR1811

shown in Figure 35-2 on page 378. Do not mount the


ZFR1811 Router in a horizontal orientation, as shown in
Figure 35-2 on page 378.
Location Considerations
See Wireless Device Location and Mounting
Considerations on page 345 for location and mounting
guidelines specific to wireless products, including the
ZFR1811 Router. For general guidelines on determining
mounting locations and installing wired network
controllers and sensors, see Locating and Installing
HVAC Controllers and Sensors on page 13.
Follow these additional guidelines when locating a
ZFR1811 Router within a ZFR1800 Series System.
• Locate the ZFR1811 Router so that it is easily
accessible.
• For best signal transmission, vertically orient the
ZFR1811 Router with at least 50 mm (2 in.) of the flag
end of the router exposed below (and clear of) any
pipes, duct work, or other metal obstructions. Do not
mount the ZFR1811 Router in a horizontal
orientation. Improper Mounting Orientation

• The ZFR1811 Router is the same size as 1/2 in. EMT


and comes with a 1/2 in. EMT connector. This design
allows you to extend the ZFR1811 Router with 1/2 in.
EMT using a 1/2 in. EMT coupling. In locations where
EMT is not required, you can also use standard EMT
hangers to support the ZFR1811 Router.
• Due to the nature of the radio frequency waves, a
wireless device may have significantly different signal
strengths if its position changes relative to another
wireless device or if its environment changes. If a
ZFR1811 Router shows poor signal strength, you
may be able to improve the signal strength by rotating
the ZFR1811 Router.
• Locate the ZFR1811 Router in line-of-sight with as
FIG:ZFR1811 mntng

many ZFR1811 Routers and WRZ-TTx Sensors as


possible.
• Do not mount the ZFR1811 Router in recessed
areas, metal enclosures, or shelving units. Figure 35-2: Proper and Improper Mounting
Orientations
Note: For detailed information on location guidelines for
a ZFR1800 Series system, and for estimating the number
of ZFR1811 Routers needed as repeaters for extending wireless transmission range, refer to the Wireless Metasys
System Location Guide (LIT-12011294).

378 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


Wireless Signal Transmission Considerations
Line-of-sight transmission ranges between a ZFR1810 Coordinator, ZFR1811 Router, and/or a WRZ-TTx Sensor
can be less than the maximum distances shown in Table 35-1 on page 379. The effective transmission range for
indoor applications varies because of wireless signal absorption and reflection due to metal obstructions, walls (or
floors), and furniture found in typical building interiors.

The value equals the sum of the numbers set to ON. For example, if the DIP switches labeled 1, 4, and 8 are set to
ON, the PAN Offset value is 13 (1 + 4 + 8 = 13). As a best practice for setting these switches, set the highest switch
value first, then the next highest switch value, and so on, until the total of the switch values equal the intended
device address.
When selecting a PAN Offset value for a wireless system:
• Use a unique PAN Offset value for each wireless mesh network at a job site.
• Use the same PAN Offset value for each wireless device in a wireless mesh network - the
ZFR1810 Coordinator and each associated ZFR1811 Router and WRZ-TTx Sensor.

Wireless Signal Strength
The ZFR1811 Router has a wireless signal strength indication LED that displays the reception strength of the
transmissions between the ZFR1810 Coordinators, ZFR1811 Routers, and the WRZ-TTx Series Sensors. This
LED helps determine the network connectivity status when selecting locations for the devices during system
installation. Approximately once every 10 seconds, the Signal Strength LED flashes to indicate the strength of the
signal received from neighboring devices. See Figure 35-1 on page 377 for the location of this LED, which is
described in Table 35-2 on page 383.

WRZ-TTx Series Wireless Room Temperature Sensors
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
IMPORTANT: The WRS-TTx Series sensors are not designed or intended for use in mission-critical or life/
safety applications.

The WRZ-TTx Series Wireless Room Temperature Sensors are designed to sense room/zone temperature and
transmit wireless temperature control data. In a ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System (mesh network)
application, the sensors communicate with FEC1600 Series, FEC2600 Series, and VMA1600 Series Controllers

WRZ-TTX
by means of the ZFR1811 Router.
A WRZ-TTx Series Sensor can also be used in a One-to-One application (non-mesh network) to communicate with
a WRZ-7840 Wireless Receiver. The WRZ-7840 Receiver transfers data to the appropriate controller by means of
the SA communication bus. In a typical application, one WRZ-TTx Series Sensor reports to one
WRZ-7840 Receiver, but up to five WRZ-TTx Series Sensors can be associated with a single WRZ-7840 Receiver
for multi-sensor averaging or high/low temperature selection.
Depending on the sensor model, the WRZ-TTx Series Sensors can transmit sensed temperature, setpoint
temperature, occupancy status, and low battery conditions to an associated router or receiver. The WRZ-TTx
Series Sensors are designed for indoor, intra-building applications only.
Special Tools Needed
• 1.6 mm (1/16 in.) Allen-head adjustment tool (Johnson Controls T-4000-119; order separately) for the small
screw that secures the sensor to the mounting base
• straight blade screwdriver (or coin) for unlocking the sensor housing from the mounting base locking tab
• WRZ-SST-100 Wireless Sensing System Tool (optional): a site survey tool and signal test receiver used prior
to installing a ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System

Wiring
The WRZ-TTx sensor is a wireless device and does not require the termination of any wires.
Setup and Adjustments
After the mounting base is properly mounted, you can set the sensor DIP switches, install the sensor batteries, turn
the sensor on, reinstall the sensor housing to the mounting base, and secure by tightening the tamper-resistant set
screw.

IMPORTANT: Do not turn the power switch ON until a router or receiver is installed and powered ON within RF
range. If this condition is not met, the sensor uses a higher than normal battery current as it attempts to find a
router or receiver within range, resulting in reduced battery life.

Application
IMPORTANT: The WRZ-7840 Receivers are not designed or intended for use in mission-critical or life/safety
applications.

The WRZ-7840 Receiver for One-to-One Wireless Room Temperature Sensing Systems is designed to receive
wireless RF temperature data from WRZ-TTx Series Wireless Room Temperature Sensors and provide single
zone temperature control data to specified Metasys system extended architecture digital controllers in building
HVAC systems. The WRZ-TTx Sensor and WRZ-7840 Receiver combination is a functional equivalent to a
network sensor, such as an NS-BTP7001-0, but eliminates communications wiring (which is usually placed inside
the wall) between the sensor and receiver.
Like a network sensor, the WRZ-7840 Receiver is designed to communicate over a SA bus interface via MS/TP
BACnet protocol with VMA1600 controllers and FECs. The receiver supplies the sensed zone temperature,
temperature setpoint, and occupancy override data.
In a typical application, one WRZ-TTx Series Sensor reports to one WRZ-7840 Receiver; however, up to five
WRZ-TTx Series Sensors can be associated with a single WRZ-7840 Receiver (Figure 37-1 on page 391). In
multi-sensor applications, the receiver passes all the sensors’ data to the controller. The VMA1600 or FEC
controller can be configured to either average the sensors’ temperature input or select the highest or lowest
sensed temperature for control of the target zone.

The TEC Series Wireless Thermostat Controller System provides wireless networked control of HVAC equipment
on a BAS that enables remote monitoring and programming. This TEC Series System integrates into a supervisory
controller using BACnet IP or BACnet MS/TP communications.
TEC20 Coordinators allow the supervisory controller to communicate with multiple TEC Wireless Thermostat
Controllers. The TEC20 Coordinator initiates the formation of the wireless mesh network; one is required per
wireless mesh network. Each TEC20 Coordinator and the TEC Wireless Thermostat Controllers assigned to it
share a Personal Area Network Identification (PAN ID).
A TEC20 Coordinator requires a 15 VDC power source (available separately). An optional remote-mount antenna
and cable is available to allow transmission when the TEC20 Coordinator is mounted inside a metal panel.

Wiring
Wiring Considerations and Guidelines

IMPORTANT: Do not connect supply power to the TEC20 Coordinator before finishing wiring and checking all
wiring connections. Short circuits or improperly connected wires may result in permanent damage to the TEC20
Coordinator.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring in accordance with local, national, and regional
regulations. The TEC20 Coordinator is a low-voltage (less than 30 VAC) device. Do not exceed the TEC20
Coordinator’s electrical ratings.

IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge to the TEC20 Coordinator. Static electric discharge can
damage the TEC20 Coordinator and void any warranties.

To wire the TEC20 Coordinator:


1. Terminate wiring per engineering drawings.
2. Connect field-supplied earth grounding wires (with spade connector) from the earth ground lug on the TEC20
Coordinator.
3. Connect communications wiring. See Communications Wiring on page 400.
TEC20

4. Connect power to the TEC20 Coordinator. See Power Wiring on page 401.
See Figure 38-1 on page 397, Figure 38-3 on page 399, and Figure 38-4 on page 399 to locate connectors and
other components on the TEC20 Coordinator.
Communications Wiring
Connect communications cables to the TEC20 Coordinator using ports on the bottom of the unit (Figure 38-4 on
page 399).
Note: To prevent damage to the TEC20 Coordinator, provide strain relief for communications cables before
connecting them to the TEC20 Coordinator.
BACnet IP (TEC20-3C-2)
LAN1 and LAN2 are RJ-45 connector ports on the bottom of the TEC20 Coordinator (Figure 38-4 on page 399)
that provide 10/100-Mb Ethernet connection for using BACnet IP communications protocol. Use a standard
Ethernet patch cable for connecting to a hub or Ethernet switch.
Note: Typically, you only use LAN1 (primary port), unless you have a specific application for isolating a driver’s
network traffic to a separate IP address (and Local Area Network [LAN]) using LAN2.
The packing slip accompanying the TEC20-3C-2 Coordinator provides the factory-shipped IP settings for both
LAN1 and LAN2. Refer to the TEC Series Wireless Thermostat Controller System Technical Bulletin
(LIT-12011414) for information on configuring the IP address.
BACnet MS/TP (TEC20-6C-2)
An RS-485, optically isolated port uses a 3-position, screw terminal connector and always operates as COM2. Wire
to this connector with shielded 18-22 AWG wiring (refer to the TIA/EIA-485 standard). The screw terminals (from
left-to-right) are shield, plus (+), and minus (-).

Power Wiring
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock

! Disconnect power supply before making electrical connections. Contact with components carrying
hazardous voltage can cause electric shock and may result in severe personal injury or death.
(TEC20-8X-1 power supply)

CAUTION: Risk of Electric Shock.

! Disconnect power supply before making electrical connections to avoid electric shock. (TEC20-7X-1
Power Supply)

IMPORTANT: The circuit powering the TEC20 Coordinator is 24 VAC at 50/60 Hz (if using the TEC20-7X-1
power supply) or 120 VAC at 50/60 Hz (if using the TEC20-8X-1 power supply). Do not connect supply power to
the TEC20 Coordinator before finishing wiring and checking all wiring connections. Short circuits or improperly
connected wires may result in permanent damage to the equipment.

IMPORTANT: User copper conductors only. Make all wiring in accordance with local, national, and regional
regulations. The TEC20 Coordinator is a low-voltage (<30 VAC) device. Do not exceed the TEC20 Coordinator
electrical ratings.

TEC20
IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge to the TEC20 Coordinator. Static electric discharge can
damage the TEC20 Coordinator and void any warranties.

IMPORTANT: For maximum protection from electrostatic discharge or other forms of Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI), connect the earth ground spade lug to earth ground using a
#16 AWG or larger wire. Keep this wire as short as possible.

Use the following procedure to apply power to the TEC20 Coordinator.


1. Remove the cover from the TEC20 Coordinator.
2. Locate the red and black wires coming from the backup battery with 2-position connector plug.
3. Plug the connector into the battery connector on the bottom board (below option slot 2 area).
The connector is keyed so that you cannot insert it incorrectly. The red (positive) connection should be the
farthest from the two 30-pin option modules connectors.
4. Apply power to the TEC20 Coordinator by plugging in the power plug into the coaxial connector for power port
(Figure 38-4 on page 399).
Battery
The TEC20 Coordinator has a custom 10-cell NiMH battery pack mounted under the cover. This battery allows the
TEC20 Coordinator to continue operation through very short power interruptions (a few seconds in duration) or to
back up data and automatically shut down after power outages of longer than 1 minute.
The battery is trickle-charged by the TEC20 Coordinator during normal operation. Following an extended power
outage, the battery is charged at a faster rate. Leaving the battery unconnected or in an unpowered TEC20
Coordinator causes the battery to fully discharge in a few weeks.
Note: The NiMH battery is fully discharged when factory shipped and requires up to 18 hours of powered
operation before it can provide reliable backup power.
Replace the battery approximately every 3 years if the TEC20 Coordinator is in a temperature-controlled
environment or every year if the TEC20 Coordinator is in a high temperature (greater than 50°C or 122°F)
environment.

IMPORTANT: Do not connect 24 VAC supply power to the WRS-RTN or TE-7800 Series Receiver before
finishing wiring and checking all wiring connections. Short circuits or improperly connected wires may result in
permanent damage to the receiver.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring in accordance with local, national, and regional
regulations. The WRS-RTN and TE-7800 Series Receivers are low-voltage (<30 VAC) devices. Do not exceed
the receiver’s electrical ratings.

IMPORTANT: Prevent any static electric discharge to the WRS-RTN or TE-7800 Series Receiver. Static
electric discharge can damage the receiver and void any warranties.

Connect the 24 VAC supply power wires from the transformer to the removable 2- or 3-terminal plug. On the
3-terminal plug, use the two outside terminals; do not use the middle terminal.

IMPORTANT: You must assign an Internet Protocol (IP) address to the WRS-RTN receiver before connecting
the receiver to the network the first time. Refer to the WRS Series Many-to-One Wireless Room Temperature
Sensing System Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011095) for more information on assigning an IP address to the

WRS-TTx Series Wireless Room Temperature Sensors
Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Application
The WRS-TTx Series Wireless Room Temperature Sensors are designed to sense room/zone temperature and
transmit wireless temperature control data to TE-7800 Series and WRS-RTN Series Receivers. Depending on the
sensor model, the WRS-TTx Series Sensors can transmit sensed temperature, setpoint temperature, occupancy
status, and low battery conditions to an associated receiver. The associated receiver passes the temperature data
on to a supervisory controller or a field controller.
Note: WRS-TTx0000-1 Series Sensors (CE Mark compliant models) have a reduced transmission power
(10 dBm) and transmission range to comply with the requirements of select countries.

create a bidirectional association with the target receiver, which allows the temperature sensing system to confirm
and synchronize data transmissions between the sensors and the receiver.
The WRS-TTx Series sensors are designed for indoor, intra-building applications only.

IMPORTANT: The WRS-TTx Series sensors are not designed or intended for use in mission-critical or life/
safety applications.

Mounting
The WRS-TTx Series Sensors can be surface mounted using the double-sided adhesive foam tape supplied with
sensor. See Wireless Device Location and Mounting Considerations on page 345 for general information on
locating and mounting WRS-TTx sensors.

IMPORTANT: If you are mounting the sensor in a public high-traffic area such as a hallway, or a location where
it may be bumped on occasion, use wall anchors that are appropriate for the surface instead of adhesive tape.

Mounting the Base with Double-Sided Adhesive Foam Tape


To mount the sensor base:
1. Clean the mounting surface to ensure that the adhesive foam tape sticks to the surface.
Note: The mounting surface, mounting base, and ambient temperature must be at least 10°C (50°F) when

Installation and Wiring Guidelines
Standard Panel and Enclosures
Application
Standard control panels and enclosures are designed to satisfy more than 80% of the Johnson Controls Branch
office demands by including the most commonly used components arranged in a highly organized layout, which
facilitates easy installation.
The enclosures house and protect subpanel assemblies, supervisory controllers, field controllers, input/output
modules, and application specific controllers. They are also used in configurations of gauges, relays, extension
modules, expansion modules, power supplies and other similar components.
Control Panels can be supplied to the field as a Sub Assembly panel without an enclosure and installed into
enclosures at the job site, or as a Panel Assembly mounted in a painted steel enclosure with a latched door. Both
are constructed in compliance with UL 508A and bear the UL Listed mark.
The Standard Control Panel product line has various assembly configurations, allowing the end users to select the
appropriate one for each application.
The Lite versions use a standard, non-customized NEMA-1 enclosure with a latching door, but without terminal
blocks for field wiring. Field wiring is terminated on the controller itself.
The standard offering of the Control Panel product line uses a custom Johnson Controls NEMA Type 1 enclosure
with a lock and key, and some models provide terminal blocks for quick field wiring to the controller.
The control panel is designed to provide the necessary clearance for electrical safety per UL508A, which also
provides the field installation technician room to terminate the connections inside the enclosure on the job site. The
door is hinged on the left side of the enclosure.
Control panels may also be ordered with NEMA Type 3R, 4, 4X, and 12 enclosures. See Ordering Control Panels
with NEMA Type 3R, 4, 4X and 12 Enclosures on page 438 for more information.

Mounting
The control panels and cabinets shall be located as 6 feet above the
indicated (Figure 42-1 on page 436) at an elevation of no finished floor
fewer than 61 cm (2 ft) from the bottom edge of the panel to
the finished floor and no higher than 1.8 m (6 ft) from the top
edge of the cabinet to the finished floor.
Anchor each cabinet in at least four places (in each corner)
or as required by the manufacturer’s recommendations
(Figure 42-2 on page 436).

is usually the responsibility of Johnson Controls or its
subcontractors to identify the enclosure and location. Figure 42-1: Placing Control Panels
Therefore, be sure to write a confirming letter or sketch the
size and location of the panels and deliver this to the
designer or contractor; this helps ensure that the designated
space is available.
Keep in mind the following points when selecting a panel
location:
• Distance from the panel to the field devices. It is a best
practice to select a location as close as possible to the
largest collection of field devices.
• Accessibility for raceways or tubing to enter the
enclosure so that a minimal amount of bending is
required. Enclosure Mount-

• Clearance requirements when the panel door is connection
opened.
• Installing height (unless specified) is 1.8 m (6 ft) from
finish floor to the top of the enclosure.
• Wall or mounting surface type.
FIG:enclmnt

• Free standing enclosure requirements.


Interior walls are excellent locations for enclosures since
they usually are hollow walls, which allow for easier Figure 42-2: 4-Point Connection
installation. It is not required to stand off enclosures
installed on interior walls. Enclosures installed on exterior
walls may require standoffs due to temperature changes, which can cause moisture between the panel and wall.
Anchors shall be of adequate type and size for the load to be supported. For most hollow wall applications, 6.3 mm
(1/4 in.) toggle bolts are recommended.
Wiring
Control Panel Wiring Standards
The convention for all control panel wiring to and from a digital controller is 18 AWG with an insulation rating of at
least 300 V. For all other wiring, use 14 AWG. For more information, see Metasys System Cable and Wire
Standards on page 465.
These colors and wire gauges are not required for field wiring. See Wiring HVAC Controllers and Sensors on
page 17 for information on Johnson Controls standards for field wire and cable sizes and colors.

Wiring Separation
Follow UL/NEC standards when using inserts to separate low-voltage and line-voltage wiring by a minimum of
50 mm (2 in.).
Since most low voltage wiring for HVAC installations is classified as Class 2 circuit conductors, maintain separation
between these conductors and circuit conductors of electric light, power, Class 1, nonpower-limited fire alarm, and
medium-power network-powered broadband communications circuits.
As a general rule, separate the routing of Class 2 conductors and cables at a minimum of 6 mm (0.25 in.) from
these types of circuits.
Refer to the National Electrical Code or local codes to ensure that you maintain proper separation requirements.
Enclosure NEMA Type Ratings
Various NEMA Type ratings are given to enclosures that permit them to be used in many different environments,
such as outdoors or in hazardous locations. All of Johnson Controls standard, lite, and UPM enclosures meet
NEMA 1 requirements. Table 42-3 on page 437 provides a brief explanation of the most common NEMA ratings.
Table 42-3: NEMA Ratings
NEMA Description
Rating
1 Indoor use. Provides a degree of protection against contact with the enclosed equipment or locations
where unusual service conditions do not exist.
3R Outdoor use. Provides a degree of protection against rain and damage caused by the formation of ice on
the enclosure.
4 Indoor or outdoor use. Provides a degree of protection against windblown dust and rain, splashing water,
hose-directed water, and damage caused by the formation of ice on the enclosure.
12 Indoor use. Provides a degree of protection against dust, falling dirt, and dripping noncorrosive liquids.

Panel Penetrations
The layout of the penetrations and the making of penetrations into the panels and cabinets is the responsibility of
the subcontractor or electrical installer.
Design Considerations
Load Bearing
Select a wall space or area with sufficient room to mount the enclosure and install conduit. The load-bearing
capacity of the wall must be able to support the full configuration weight. Wood surfaces generally only require
bolting the enclosure to the wall; drywall surfaces require anchors for the bolts.

UPM Enclosures
Application
UPMs make up an expandable enclosure system, made of plastic, which house a wide range of controllers and
accessories.
Four sizes of units are available, and each comes completely assembled. However, due to their modular design,
you can modify the units to customize the enclosure to the site. (Johnson Controls Panel Facility wires and
configures a unit, complete with gear, to your specifications.) If system requirements change for units that are
already mounted, the enclosure’s modular construction allows you to increase the unit’s capacity without having to
rewire the existing controls.

Wiring
Power Connections
Use wire-nuts to connect the power source’s hot and neutral lines to the corresponding lines inside the power box.
Use wire-nuts to connect the power source’s ground wire to the green power box wire. This grounds the power
outlets (which are internally connected to a ring terminal on the grounding screw). The transformer is already
connected to the second ring terminal on the same grounding screw.
This connection completes the line-voltage wiring to the power outlets and the transformer. Internal connections to
power outlets, switch, and ground are made at the factory. Switches control power to the transformer.

440 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


PANELS
Grounding and Bonding
Installing the power box in any of the four
designated positions locates one of the rear slots
of the box over a grounding screw at the back of
the endcap (each endcap has two grounding
screws). The power box must be provided with a
grounding conductor.
When bringing multiple conduits into one end of
the enclosure, you automatically connect the
standard conduit connectors to the ground plane,
grounding all conduits together. While attaching
other devices to the opposite screw on the same
endcap, you also ground those devices via the
aluminum ground plane.
If conduit is connected to the bottom endcap
(opposite the powerbox), electrically bond the
endcap to the grounded endcap and attach a
grounding wire from the open screw of the power
box endcap to either of the grounding screws of

FIG:UPM-mnt3
the second endcap (Figure 42-7 on page 441).

Figure 42-7: Power and Grounding/Bonding Terminations

Power Box and Transformer Location


The power box and transformer can be located in
different areas of the enclosure, depending on the

FIG:cvrnu
requirements of the other installed equipment.
Four discrete locations for the power box
(designated as A, B, C, or D) are on the outside of
the endcap (Figure 42-8 on page 441). The power
Figure 42-8: Line Voltage Conduit Entry
box is generally located in Area C. Set the power
from the Top of the Enclosure
box on the inside of the unit over two bosses
corresponding to one of the locations; A, B, C, or
D. Position the transformer to within 1.2 cm (1/2 in.) of the power box.

IMPORTANT: You must reconnect the ground wires if you move the power box.

Power
The power option provides an integrated 50 VA (EN-EWC15, EN-EWC25) or 100 VA (EN-EWC35, EN-EWC45)
transformer. A switch activates the transformer. Two utility outlets inside a metal power entrance box are also
included.
Power to the power box must be 120 VAC at 60 Hz.
A terminal block assembly is used specifically for higher voltage (line) connections and includes a 5 or 10 ampere
circuit breaker, which is also used as the control panel disconnect switch. This circuit breaker / disconnect does
not have lockout provisions, and per UL508A, a label is located next to it to instruct the field installer to
provide a separate lockable disconnect switch in the incoming power line.
Wiring Separation
Use one side of the enclosure to route low-voltage wiring and the other side for line-voltage wiring. Off-the-shelf
inserts from Richco Plastics plug into the mounting holes of the backbone to help route wires. The hole size is 7.87
mm (0.31 in).

Several preassembled sizes of enclosures are available.
These include the EN-EWC10-0, EWC20, EWC30, or the D
EWC40 (Figure 42-10 on page 442). You can order any
of these sizes to include a 24 VAC transformer and power

Table 42-4 on page 442, Figure 42-9 on page 442, and
Figure 42-10 on page 442 illustrate the various enclosure
dimensions.
Due to the rigidity and strength of the molded plastic
enclosure, the weight supported by an individual
enclosure is probably higher than any application UPMPB6
requirement. The pull-out value of the screw holes on the
backbone is 90.7 kg (200 lb). However, in securing a very Figure 42-9: Dimensions of Preassembled
heavy object, the best practice is to distribute the weight Enclosures in Table 42-4 on page 442
over a number of screws.
The weight resting on the bottom endcap must not
exceed 22.6 kg (50 lb).
Environment
The enclosure is for indoor use only. Avoid areas where
water leakage may occur.

Application
Actuators open and close dampers to control airflow. Many actuators mount directly on the damper shaft; others
MOTOR

use a crankarm and linkage to connect the actuator to the damper blades.
DMPR

Severe problems may arise if the actuators are not set up properly. If the actuators are not preloaded, they do not
properly close the damper blades. An unseated damper allows infiltration of air that is either too cold or too hot for
proper control or safety. Therefore, preloading the damper actuator is an important, standard value-added practice
that prevents infiltration.
Note: If the actuator does not close an exhaust or outside damper, HVAC equipment can become damaged or
have reduced effectiveness.

manual override crank a half turn in the opposite Figure 43-4: Length from Shaft to Bracket
direction to temporarily lock the actuator hub in place.
4. Evenly hand tighten each clamp nut onto the U-bolt,
keeping the actuator flat. Secure the U-bolt to the damper shaft and tighten securely.
5. To release the spring, turn the manual override crank in the direction indicated on the label.
6. Remove the manual override crank and store it in an unused mounting hole.

Actuator Preloading
Preloading is one of the most important commissioning steps. Commissioning before preloading may cause air
leakage to occur and require some rework.
Special Tools Needed
To fine-tune the actuator, you’ll need the following:
• M9000-200 Commissioning Tool or equivalent (laptop, signal generator)
• Cable or wire for making power and signal connections
• Wire stripper
• Adjustable, open-end, box-end, or socket wrenches, including Metric sizes
• Channellock-style or Vise-Grip pliers
• Flashlight
Recommended Preloading Procedure
When you complete this procedure, you ensure that the damper blades effectively prevent unwanted air exchange
that could damage the HVAC equipment.
1. Disconnect power to the actuator.
2. Loosen the U-bolt or crankarm bolt, which secures the actuator to the damper shaft or blade pin extension.
3. Connect the signal source to the actuator.
4. Apply a control signal of 5–10% over and above the normal closed value of the spring range. Your goal is to
find the minimum signal required to achieve an effective seal.

Actuator Mounting and Preloading Guidelines: Section 43 447


5. Firmly hold the blade pin extension with the channellock or Vise-Grip pliers, then physically close and continue
to hold the damper blades in a tightly closed position.
MOTOR

6. Retighten the U-bolt or crankarm bolt.


DMPR

7. Release the control signal. You should see the actuator spring back and create a tight seal at the damper
blades.
8. If you did not get a tight enough seal, repeat Steps 1–7. Apply a little more signal to increase the spring
pressure, release, then check the seal.
9. Continue until you obtain a good seal. Each time you preload, verify that the actuator tightly closed the damper.
Similar procedures can be followed for other electric and pneumatic actuators. Preloading is just as important for
pneumatic actuators as for electric.
Importance of Not Over Preloading
It is possible to over-preload a damper actuator. For example, consider the following scenario. Assume that:
• You need 20% minimum airflow.
• You used 20% of the voltage or current range to preload the damper.
• After preloading, you give the damper actuator a 20% command and walk away.

IMPORTANT: At 10% command, the damper stays closed. At 20% of maximum signal, the damper still stays
closed because of preloading. You must understand which signal is necessary to achieve 20% minimum airflow,
after preloading.

Mounting Considerations
The primary purpose of a low limit cutout is to prevent a coil from freezing. Therefore, before mounting the control,
you need to consider several factors that help protect the coil from freezing.
• Cool air drops to the bottom of the unit. This is why protection in the lower bottom of the unit (lower 15.2 cm or
6 in.) is vital.
• If the tubes in the coil freeze, the coil can crack and begin leaking. As water leaks from the coil, the control
system may sense the reduced water pressure and increase the flow of water to compensate for the loss,
which causes even more damage.
• For most low limits to perform their intended task, they must be installed in a very specific manner. The low limit
controls currently used incorporate a vapor-charged sensing element. The vapor in the element creates a
change in pressure with a change in temperature within the sensing element, eventually causing the electrical
switch in the device to open or close. This design feature is the reason that the device must be installed
properly so that it functions as intended.
• The size of the duct work or air handling unit system in which the device is being installed may require more
than one low limit control to adequately protect the entire coil.
• System accessibility affects how the device is mounted. Larger AHUs often provide access to the coil, allowing
you to effectively serpentine the capillary across its face. (See Mounting in an Accessible Location on
page 455.) Smaller AHUs or duct work may not provide direct accessibility, which means you need to
pre-assemble the control before installation. (See Mounting in an Inaccessible Location on page 456.)

• Two alternate installations are shown in Figure 44-3 on page 453 (which the York Solution Air Handling Units
team typically uses). If you select this installation method, mount the temperature control above the sensing
element whenever possible. If you cannot mount the control above the element, loop the capillary/element
slightly below the control, then route the element toward the top of the coil, and begin serpertining in a
downward direction from the top of the coil. Keep the loop as short as possible (maximum of 4 feet). If you
mounted the control below the sensing element, prevent possible nuisance alarms by mounting the control in a
conditioned space. When using the A11 Series control, coil the excess capillary (small capillary between the
control and sensing element) inside the conditioned space and secure.

A11 and A70 Series Low Temperature Cutout Controls: Section 44 453
Observe the following guidelines when mounting A11 and A70 Series low temperature cutout controls.

CAUTION: Risk of Environmental and Property Damage

! Avoid sharp bends in capillary tubes. Sharp bends can damage the capillary tubes and may result in
release of the chemical charge in the sensing element or restrictions of flow, which may result in
damage to the environment or property.
LOTEMP
CUTOUT

CAUTION: Risk of Environmental and Property Damage

! Coil and secure excess capillary tubing away from contact with sharp or abrasive objects or surfaces.
Vibration and sharp or abrasive objects in contact with capillary tubes can cause damage that may
result in release of the chemical charge in the sensing element, which may result in damage to the
environment or property.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage

! Do not dent or deform the sensing bulb. Dents or deformations in the sensing bulb can change the
calibration, may cause the control to operate at temperatures other than the setpoint, and may result
in other property damage.

IMPORTANT: Be careful when drilling holes or driving screws while mounting sensing elements to avoid
puncturing or damaging hydronic coils.

IMPORTANT: Use only the mounting screws supplied with the Universal Mounting Bracket to avoid damaging
internal components. Be careful not to distort or bend the control case when mounting the control to an uneven
surface. Using other screws or bending the control case voids the warranty.

IMPORTANT: Locate the control case and bellows where the ambient temperature is always warmer than the
setpoint. The control operates only from the lowest temperature along any 14 to 16 in. length of the sensing
element.

IMPORTANT: Low temperature cutout controls must be located in areas protected from the effects of weather.
If the control is mounted in an area that is exposed to the weather or other wet environments, it must be
equipped with an outdoor enclosure.

IMPORTANT: It is important to mount the low temperature cutout control in the correct location. The capillary
must be exposed to all areas on the coil where a risk of low temperatures is present.

• Mount the control upright in an accessible location, where the control body, capillary tube, and sensing bulb are
not subject to damage, and the control is in the highest possible position of the entire installation.
• Mount the control upstream from mixed air or chilled water coils.
• Mount the control downstream from preheat coils.
• Mount the control upright on flat, vertical, or horizontal surfaces using accessory brackets. These controls have
NEMA 1 enclosures.
• Mount the capillary in a serpentine fashion so that it slopes gently downhill (not to exceed 5°), has no dips,
bends, or kinks, and so that the last segment is installed within 15.2 cm (6 in.) of the bottom of the coil.

454 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


Mounting in an Accessible Location
Sometimes, the coil face offers nothing that can hold the tie-wrapped sensing element. In these cases, use 1.3 cm
(1/2 in.) EMT, hard copper tubing, or Unistrut to build supports to be used for fastening the sensing element.
Fastening the sensing element to fixed supports holds the element in place, preventing movement in the air
stream. Field-fabricated supports often take the form of a rack with vertical supports (like pickets on a fence).
Once the proper location as been determined, follow these guidelines to mount an A11 or A70 Series low

temperature cutout (also see Figure 44-1 on page 451):
1. Use two screws or bolts through the two outer holes on the back of the control case when mounting the control
directly to a flat vertical surface.
2. Use the two inner holes with the mounting bracket (and screws supplied) when mounting the control to a flat
horizontal surface.
3. Determine the best mounting location for the low temperature cutout control. Locate the control as high as
possible on the side of the duct or on a nearby wall, panel, or structural support. The desired mounting position
is with the element bellows pointing down.
4. Build and install any field-fabricated supports that are necessary to hold the sensing element in place.
5. Using the control’s mounting bracket as a template, mark the location for the mounting screws.
6. Drill an 8 mm (5/16 in.) entry hole for the sensing element.
7. Feed the entire length of the sensing element through the entry hole.

IMPORTANT: On an A11 low temperature cutout control, the brass tubing just below the bellows is not
temperature sensitive and can be mounted in ambient temperature. Below the solder bead, the copper sensing
element begins. This part is temperature-sensitive and must be properly positioned to work correctly. On A70
controls, the entire capillary is temperature sensitive.

Note: On a wide coil, you could be left with a very small
S to get back up to the control. Locate this topmost bend
in the correct position to use up any remaining slack in
the length of the sensing element. You may need to build
a support for the bracket at that turning point.

through the entry hole in the duct work. Slit the
tubing lengthwise to permit easy installation.
Figure 44-5: Correct Control Capillary Orientation
Caulking or sealant is normally not needed when the
right size hole and tubing are used.
16. At the bends, use a TE-6001-8 Averaging Element Mounting Bracket to obtain the correct radius and protect
the sensing element. The radius of each bend of the sensing element must be at least 7.6 cm (3 in.) but not to
exceed 35.5 cm (14 in.).
Mounting in an Inaccessible Location
1. Determine the mounting location for the low limit control.
• The A70 is much easier to mount in inaccessible locations due to the way it is packaged.
• Stay clear of any moving parts within the duct, such as dampers.
• When the duct is covered with insulation, mount the control to a standard electrical 4-Square box and
cover.
2. Using Figure 44-6 on page 457 as a guide, measure the duct and calculate the required length and height of
the element support.
3. Using 1.3 cm (1/2 in.) EMT, build the support assembly outside of the duct.
Note: 1 cm (3/8 in.) hard copper tubing can be substituted for 6.4 mm (1/2 in.) EMT when building the support.
These instructions assume the use of EMT.

4. Starting at the bottom of the coil, distribute the sensing element around the support and tie-wrap it securely in
place. Keep the loops horizontal or inclined slightly downward (not to exceed 5°) and uniform in size

Wiring
For most AHU installations, it is more cost-effective to wire the Low Limit (and other safeties) with low voltage Class
2 wiring and add a shutdown relay at the Motor Starter.
This practice allows the control to share raceways with other low voltage cables for the system.

Manual Reset Lockout Controls


A70BA and A70HA type controls with Manual Reset Lockout
have a fixed differential of 3°C (5°F). Turn the setpoint screw
to adjust the CUT OUT setpoint on the right side of the scale.
These A70 models lock out when the sensed temperature
drops to the CUT OUT setpoint. The control must be
manually reset by the user to restart the controlled
equipment. The manual reset mechanism is trip-free and
cannot be overridden by blocking or tying down the reset
button. (Figure 44-10 on page 459).
On locked-out equipment, first determine and remedy the
cause of the lockout. On Open-low controls, the sensed
temperature must rise at least 3°C (5°F) above the CUT OUT
setpoint before the control may be reset.
After the fixed differential (above CUT OUT) is reached,
press and release the reset button on the front of the control
to restore normal operation of the controlled equipment. Figure 44-10: Adjusting the A70 Control
IMPORTANT: Do not adjust the pointer beyond the highest or lowest indicator marks on the control’s
temperature scale. Adjusting the pointer beyond the indicator marks may damage screw threads, may cause
inaccurate control operation and will void the warranty. Also, most controls with spot sensitive sensing elements
used for coil protection are set and sealed at 1.6°C (35°F). Attempting to set them lower can damage the
control.

IMPORTANT: After adjusting the control settings and before leaving installation, verify equipment and control
operation, and verify control setpoint with a reliable thermometer.

Network Power and Power Cable Guidelines


When selecting the 24 VAC, Class 2 power supply used for Metasys network devices, choose dedicated
transformers that are isolated from inductive surges or have surge protection on the primary side of the
transformer.
When estimating network power requirements, you must factor in the voltage drop, which depends on wire size
and wire run length. For details, see Maximum Voltage Drop on 24 VAC Power Wiring on page 470. Also, pay
particular attention to bus polarity throughout.
Volt-Ampere Power Requirements for Metasys Network Devices
A 24 VAC power transformer can supply multiple devices if:
• the power draw of the devices is less than the transformer’s rating
• the gauge of the power supply wire is large enough for the load
• the device does not require isolated power
Typically, the transformer load consists of the controller, plus any actuators and relays driven by the controller.
Table 45-15 on page 469 has power requirements for Metasys controllers and typical Johnson Controls actuators
and relays.

1. Requirements are approximate; refer to respective product literature for details. Also, you must account for the
voltage drop from the transformer to the load. Voltage drop for 24 VAC is much larger than for line voltage. Be
sure to use a wire gauge that is large enough for the load. See Maximum Voltage Drop on 24 VAC Power
Wiring on page 470.

Maximum Voltage Drop on 24 VAC Power Wiring


Controllers in particular are sensitive to variations in their supply voltage. To maintain proper operation, the supply
voltage variation should not exceed 2 volts.
Table 45-16 on page 470 lists the maximum one way distance that power wiring can be run for a particular load
and wire size. This limits the voltage drop on a 24 VAC power circuit to 2 volts, the limit that product engineers at
Johnson Controls have deemed acceptable.
To calculate the wire size and length necessary to maintain a maximum drop of 2 volts:
1. Add the power requirements for the controller and any connected actuators and relays (Table 45-15 on
page 469).
2. Use Table 45-16 on page 470 for wire size and maximum one-way length required for the load.

for temperature correction factors. The following formula was used to approximate the wire runs in this table: (voltage drop
/ [ohms per kFt * load in amps]* 1000) /2 = one-way run (ft).

WIRE STD
CABLE
Resistive Sensor Temperature Offset
Resistance in the wire between a resistive temperature sensor and a controller introduce temperature error into the
sensor circuit. Both the Nickel (Ni) and Platinum (Pt) type resistive sensors experience error in their temperature
readings due to resistance in the sensor cable. The amount of resistance (temperature error) increases with an
increase in wire length and/or a decrease in wire diameter (wire gauge).
To minimize sensor temperature error due to field wiring, the total resistance of all resistive sensor wiring should be
less that 3 ohms (which results in approximately a 1.0°F offset for Nickel sensors and 1.4°F for Platinum sensors).
Table 45-17 on page 471 provides the maximum cable length (controller to sensor) for different wire sizes that
keeps the wire resistance below 3 ohms.
Note: Network Sensors are not affected by the length of wire runs since they communicate on the SA Bus.

Network Conduit Sizing Guidelines


Conduit sizing charts for standard Johnson Control cables are shown below. All calculations are based on a 40% fill
rate using recommended cables available from Anixter. Calculations are based on PVC jacketed cables. Plenum
cables are normally slightly smaller in size.
When cable of the same size is contained in the same raceway, use Table 45-18 on page 471 to determine the
raceway size based on cable type.

Factory Installed Controls - Solution Air Handling Units

Overview
For factory-installed components and wiring, Johnson Controls has two important options:
• FPC Systems - three subtypes:
- FPC systems with controller
- FPC systems without controller
- FPC systems with remote panel
• Factory-Mounted End Devices (FMEDs)
The drawing sets for these systems have system diagrams that may include flow diagrams and mechanical system
layouts.
Note: Online access to FPC Solution AHU system drawings is available to Johnson Controls personnel with an
Internet connection. The drawings are available for download on the MOM system, an online database containing
as-built drawings for shipped FPC systems. To reach the MOM system Web site, go to http://
c7mdcs121.cg.na.jci.com/MOMWeb/default.aspx. Contact your branch equipment support person for access
information.
FPC Systems
Factory Packaged Control systems are air handling units that feature traditional field control component devices
mounted and connected at the factory.
The following drawings are usually provided for all three system types:
• FPC Device Location Drawing (Figure 46-1 on page 478) is an engineered drawing (to scale) showing where
each device, by object identifier, is mounted by the factory.
• FPC Power/Safeties/End Device Wiring Diagram (Figure 46-2 on page 479 and Figure 46-3 on page 480) is
one or multiple drawings, typically laid out in a ladder diagram manner, depicting factory wiring and
terminations.
• I/O Header Diagram (Figure 46-4 on page 481) is a drawing that lays out how each low-voltage power, input,
or output connects to their respective home run cable. Each factory-connected unit has one or more home run
and low voltage power cables. The quantity of cables is dependent on the required inputs and outputs. Each of
these home runs are provided with I/O headers located in the AHU sections as needed.
In addition, the FPC with controller may contain a project review and signoff drawing that is used by the field
branch office and factory to clarify scope.
You should understand the differences between these three types of systems.
Each of these three drawings types are provided in FAN 55-510, Appendix C.
Note: A factory installed raceway is often sealed at the AHU sections to prevent condensation. It is imperative that
the integrity of the factory installation not be compromised. As such, do not add cabling, wiring, or tubing to the
factory raceway.
Note: Not every object or point device is factory installed on an FPC system (for example, space temperature,
space humidity, and field bus cabling).
FPC System with Controller
An FPC system with a controller is the most popular turnkey option available for field installation. They ship with a
factory-installed controller and with wiring that is mostly complete.
Note: Adding a controller enclosure to an AHU increases the total length of the AHU. It is important to ensure that
the extra length of the controller enclosure is taken into consideration when the project is designed and bid.
The Project Review and Signoff drawing clarifies how points are handled. Each object identifier should be listed
on a legend defining whether a point is factory or field supplied. An X indicates that a point device is factory
supplied. Factory-supplied points can be factory mounted and wired or shipped loose for field installation.

Code No. LIT-410047 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC): Section 46 475
FACTORY
CNTRLS

Factory-Mounted and Wired identifies the point as factory mounted and wired. Typically, factory-mounted and
wired points do not have traditional field installation requirements, but you should be aware that:
• AHUs are often shipped in multiple sections on separate skids for logistical reasons. These separate sections
have factory-provided modular wire-connectors that connect the internal wiring in one section to the wiring to
another section. This task is typically performed by the mechanical contractor, but it is in your best interest to
ensure this connection is terminated properly and tested.

IMPORTANT: The factory-provided modular wire connectors for the internal wiring must be properly connected
and tested when the sections of an air handler unit or roof top unit are assembled. Failure to properly connect
the wiring connector can result in significant expense to disassemble the unit or reroute the internal wiring.

• Control valves typically terminate with a factory-provided plug and flexible wire whips. Valve locations must be
within 1.2 m (4 ft) of the unit or the flex whip must be extended. Factory extensions are available for order in
1.5 m (5 ft), 3 m (10 ft), and/or 6 m (20 ft) lengths. Work with the mechanical contractor during valve installation
to ensure valve location is within 4 ft, which allows factory whips to be used and eliminates additional labor and
material costs to add pipe and wire.
• MS/TP compatible VSDs are not factory connected to the FPC panel controller bus. If required, the field bus
cables must be field installed.
• The wiring installed at the factory meets ETL SEMKO Testing Laboratory requirements. This certification mark
indicates that the product has been tested for, and has met the minimum requirements of, a widely recognized
U.S. product safety standard; that the manufacturing site has been audited; and that the applicant has agreed
to a program of periodic factory follow-up inspections to verify continued conformance. ETL certifications are
also applicable to the wiring and cables installed at the factory.
• If factory wiring methods are brought into question by project authorities having jurisdiction (for example, local
inspectors and engineering firms), contact your Solution Air Handling Unit support team.
• Factory installation of control devices allows mounting in optimum locations. These locations provide the best
functionality with the highest quality, but may limit serviceability. If devices fail, direct replacement in the same
location may not be possible. Under these conditions, determine an alternate field replacement location.
• Solution AHUs often have low temperature cutouts mounted inside the air stream of the unit. When mounted in
this manner, the sensing element in these devices have special mounting allowances. For more information,
see A11 and A70 Series Low Temperature Cutout Controls on page 451.

IMPORTANT: Some factory-installed devices have manual resets that interrupt the operation of the Solution
AHU. To avoid possible injury, it is critical that you follow proper lock-out/tag-out procedures when resetting
these devices.

Factory Shipped Loose are specific point devices shipped along with the unit, but must be field installed. Unlike
control valves, these points do not have a wire whip and must be field wired from their field location back to the
FPC panel (which is usually mounted on the AHU next to the supply fan starter).
The Field Supplied Points field indicates whether the point device is a control point Included or no control point.
• Field Control Point Included is a field point device similar to a factory shipped loose device. The only
difference is the device is not shipped with the AHU from the factory. You must field install this device.
• Field No Control Point is a field point device that is to be mounted on the AHU but is not a Johnson Controls
responsibility to install. A common example is a smoke detector.
These drawings also indicate how 120 VAC power wiring to the FPC control panel is handled. The (Single Point
Power) SPP Pre-wired to FPC Panel field defines if 120 V power wiring must be field installed or not.
• Y (yes) indicates that the factory is responsible for installing a transformer (typically at the supply fan starter) to
provide power to the panel.
• N (no) indicates that you must determine if you or another contractor (such as Division 16) are responsible for
providing power.

FACTORY
CNTRLS
FPC System without Controller
FPC systems without a controller are wired much like the FPC system with a controller. The only differences are
that in the FPC panel:
• no controller is mounted in the panel at the factory
• each cable is terminated within the FPC panel on a terminal strip (by the factory)
The final wiring terminations for the controller must be completed in the field. You should attempt to install a
(shipped loose) controller and associated field point devices using the lowest total installed cost solution. Be sure
to communicate any desired installation or wiring changes early, so they can be reviewed and approved prior to
installing the system.
FPC System with Remote Panel
An FPC system with a remote panel is wired much like the FPC with controller. The only differences are that in the
FPC panel:
• No controller is mounted in the panel at the factory.
• Each cable is tagged and is not terminated in the FPC panel at the factory.
You must mount the remote panel, provide raceways and cables, and terminate the cables.

FMED System
These systems are the least turnkey options available and require the most materials and labor to install and wire.
Field devices can be mounted, but only for those devices that can be factory installed. No power wiring, low voltage
cabling, raceways, or panels are provided.
Note: On FMED systems, some of the factory-installed end devices are almost inaccessible in the field, so it is
strongly recommended that you select one of the wired FPC solutions whenever possible.

UFAD
FLEXSYS
Application
The Johnson Controls FlexSys system is a UFAD system that provides an alternative heating and cooling air
FLEXSYS

delivery solution. With the FlexSys system, the entire volume under the floor becomes a pressurized air handling
UFAD

space. The under floor air design provides conditioned air at a higher relative supply temperature and lower static
pressure than the traditional overhead mixed air distribution system. See Table 47-1 on page 484 for a comparison
of the two systems.
Table 47-1: Comparing Under Floor Air System with Traditional Overhead Air System
Type of Air System Supply Air Temperature Return Air Temperature Static Pressure
Under Floor Air System 61 to 63°F (16 to 17°C) 80 to 83°F (26 to 28°C) 0.01 to 0.05 in. wc
Overhead Mixed Air System 55°F (13°C) 75°F (24°C) 1.0 to 2.0 in. wc

Note: To find valuable underfloor system information for use in pre-construction meetings and project inspections,
refer to the resources page on the Tate Access Floors Web site: http://www.tateaccessfloors.com. This Web site
features construction project requirements, commissioning checklists, and other resources that can assist
architects, general contractors, and commissioning agents in the successful delivery of a UFAD system.
Equipment
The UFAD system consists of the following:
• MIT units
• MFT units, either UFE units or UFW units
• PMs
• PAP cables
• TEC2688FS-2 Series BACnet MS/TP Network Thermostat
MIT Units
The FlexSys system provides the under floor air distribution through an advanced terminal design known as the
MIT. The MIT units employ a pulse-width modulation valve that automatically adjusts individual terminals and a
damper that uses time modulation logic to maintain the thermostat setpoint. These units feature 20 gauge
galvanized pre-painted (flat black) steel construction. The top grill for each unit is in 2 sections and adjustable to
create 16 different air patterns. The units include MIT2-A, MIT2-C, and MIT2-G.

484 Installation Quick Reference Handbook - (HVAC)


MIT2-A
The MIT2-A is a constant volume air terminal (Figure 47-2 on page 485). The unit is rated for 150 cfm at 0.05 in.

Tools Required
• Power screwdriver (Phillips #3 bit) to remove floor panels and replace them
• Voltmeter to check for power
• Panel Lifter for removing floor panels
Preparation
Follow these steps:
1. Verify that the UFE/UFW is the correct model for the desired location.
2. Remove the floor coverings and floor panels, if installed at the desired location.
3. Verify that the remaining floor panels are installed properly.

Under Floor Air Distribution Systems: Section 47 489


Installation
Follow these steps:
FLEXSYS

1. Remove the floor panels to provide a 2 ft x 4 ft (0.7 x 1.2 m) minimum opening for the UFE/UFW terminal.
UFAD

2. Position the UFE/UFW on the subfloor. Verify you can open the access door fully clear of the floor risers.
3. Connect the unit to the building power, per local code requirements.
4. With the circuit energized, verify the fan operates correctly.

IMPORTANT: To ensure the required CFM is met, we recommend that you remove the filter from the unit after
the construction phase completes but before the commissioning phase begins. Once the floor is installed, a filter
replacement can be extremely difficult.

5. Replace all floor panels in their original locations.


Operation
After installation, the UFE/UFW terminal needs no adjustment or service for proper operation.

Power Supply (PM-1)
The PM-1 is an electrical under floor power supply module (Figure 47-9 on page 491). It comes with a galvanized

FLEXSYS
steel junction box measuring 4 x 4 in. (101 x 101 mm) (nominal) with standard knockouts for use in conduits for

UFAD
under floor air systems. The power supply is rated for supply air temperatures from 45 to 120°F (7 to 49°C). It can
power up to 13 MIT terminals and 1 TEC thermostat. One control transformer is installed in the junction box and is
rated at 120/240/277 VAC to 24 VAC (90 VA). The transformer has a built-in circuit breaker reset button (3 A) to
protect the circuit from overloading. The reset button is located on the exterior of the transformer housing. In
addition, a 24 VAC PAP cable connection is pre-wired with a female cable connection for a PAP-5 cable (provided).
You can install the power module under the floor at any convenient location, but make it accessible through a
convenient floor panel to provide access to the reset button.

Application
FLEXSYS
UFAD

The TEC2688FS-2 is a BACnet MS/TP networked


device that provides control for FlexSys under floor
VAV systems. It is specifically designed to work
seamlessly with the MIT2 (MIT 2nd Generation)
FlexSys UFAD system, which are the MIT2 units for
both cooling only and cooling with perimeter heat
applications. The TEC2688FS-2 contains a single
speed low-voltage fan contact to control the fan
during the heating mode and also contains an
auxiliary contact for pulsed heat operation. The Backlit, plain text

with all FlexSys fan-powered terminal units that
include 2A1S in the Thermostat Fan & Heater
Control Signal identifiers in the model number.

FIG:frnt_vw
The technologically advanced TEC2688FS-2 Series Three keys on the thermostat
make operation easy and intuitive.
Thermostat features a BAS BACnet MS/TP
communication capability that enables remote Figure 47-14: TEC2688FW-2 Front Cover
monitoring and programmability for efficient space
temperature control.
The TEC2688FS-2 Thermostat features an intuitive user interface with backlit display that makes setup and
operation quick and easy. The thermostats also employ a unique, PI time-proportioning algorithm that virtually
eliminates temperature offset associated with traditional, differential-based thermostats.

IMPORTANT: The TEC2688FS-2 Thermostat is intended to provide an input to equipment under normal
operating conditions. Where failure or malfunction of the thermostat could lead to personal injury or property
damage to the controlled equipment or other property, additional precautions must be designed into the control
system. Incorporate and maintain other devices, such as supervisory or alarm systems or safety or limit controls,
intended to warn of or protect against failure or malfunction of the thermostat.

IMPORTANT: If you need to install the thermostat in an electrical wall box, use 2 1/8 x 4 in. (54 x 101 mm)
square boxes with mud ring covers and avoid the smaller 1 1/2 x 4 in. square (38 x 101 mm) or 3 x 2 in.
(76 x 51 mm) boxes. This ensures you have enough space for PAP cabling, communication cabling, and EOL
devices (if needed).

If your application has traditional, non-time pulse modulated equipment that is driven with a 0 to 10 VDC signal,
use the TEC2647-2 BACnet MS/TP Networked Thermostat with Two Outputs. This thermostat has:
• three speed fan outputs (for systems that require fan control in Cooling mode)
• one 0 to 10 VDC cooling output
• one 0 to 10 VDC heating output
Similar to the TEC2688FS-2, the TEC2647-2 is pre-wired with a PAP cable to adapt to the FlexSys system. This
configuration requires an additional converter called the Q-Box to convert a 0 to 10 volt output to time-based
pulses to drive the MIT VAV boxes. The TEC2647-2 is selectable with YORKworks equipment selection software.
For more information, refer to the TEC26x7-2 Series BACnet® MS/TP Networked Thermostats with Two Outputs
Installation Instructions (Part No. 24-9890-242).

Setup and Adjustments
Thermostat User Interface Keys
The TEC2688FS-2 Thermostat user interface consists of three keys on the front cover (as illustrated in
Figure 47-14 on page 496). The function of each key is as follows:
• OVERRIDE key overrides the unoccupied mode to occupied at the local user interface for the specified
TOccTime. (TOccTime is defined by selecting the appropriate time period in the Installer Configuration Menu.)
The OVERRIDE key also allows access to the Installer Configuration Menu. See Configuring the
TEC2688FS-2 Series Thermostat on page 501.
• If one of the binary inputs is configured to operate as a remote override contact, this OVERRIDE key is
disabled.
• UP/DOWN arrow keys change the configuration parameters and activate a setpoint adjustment.
Backlit LCD
The TEC2688FS-2 Thermostat includes a 2-line, 8-character backlit display. Low-level backlighting is present
during normal operation, and it brightens when any user interface key is pressed. The backlight returns to low level
when the thermostat is left unattended for 45 seconds.
LEDs
Two LEDs are included to indicate a call for heat or a call for cooling:
• The HEAT LED is on when heating or heat is on.
• The COOL LED is on when cooling is on.
Status Display Menu
The Status Display Menu is displayed during normal thermostat operation. This menu can continuously scroll
through the following parameters:
• Room Temperature
• System Mode
• Occupancy Status (Occupied/Unoccupied/Override)
• Applicable Alarms (The backlight lights up as an alarm condition is displayed.)
Note: An option is available within the Installer Configuration Menu to activate the scrolling display rather than
show only the Room Temperature parameter.
Note: As a best practice during startup the installer can validate operation of all MIT boxes in a zone by driving the
setpoint to one extreme and then visually inspecting operation of dampers.
Configuring the TEC2688FS-2 Series Thermostat
The TEC2688FS-2 Thermostat comes from the factory with default settings for all configurable parameters. The
default settings are shown in Table 47-4 on page 503. To reconfigure the parameters via the thermostat, follow the
steps in this section.
To access the Installer Configuration Menu, press and hold the override key for approximately 8 seconds. Once
the Installer Configuration Menu begins, release and press the center key to scroll through the parameters listed in
Table 47-4 on page 503. When the desired parameter is displayed, use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose the
desired selection option. Then press and release the override key to continue scrolling through the parameters.
When the thermostat is in the Installer Configuration Menu and left unattended for approximately 8 seconds, the
thermostat reverts to the Status Display Menu.
Configuring Inputs BI1 and BI2
When BI1 and BI2 are configured for an alarm condition, an alarm condition is displayed locally when the input is
closed. An alarm message is included on the scrolling Status Display Menu and when the message is displayed,
the backlight momentarily lights up.

Configuring Heat Sequences


Heat 10 Seconds Cycle Time Sequence
Fan Operation
The Fan operation has a 2% hysteresis on Fan operation between PI Heat = 0% and 2%. The Fan has a fixed
90-second delay (purge time) when the PI Heat = 0%. The fan is energized when heat output is energized. See
Heat Output Operation on page 502 for more information.
Heat Output Operation
The cycle time is 10 seconds. Use this operation for driving a SSR output. This operation is not intended for
mechanical relays or valves.
The Duty Cycle is a ratio of ON time versus Cycle time of the heat output. A 50% duty cycle, for example, has a
5 seconds ON and 5 seconds OFF of heat output (repeated continuously).
When Fan is initially de-energized and PI Heat = 0%, the Fan only energizes once the PI Heat = > 2%. When Fan
is initially energized and then PI Heat = 0%, the Fan remains energized for an additional 90 seconds (purge cycle).
Heat 15 minutes Cycle Time Sequence
Fan Operation
The Fan is energized when heat output is energized. The Fan has a 90-second OFF delay (purge cycle) when heat
