To wire the Wireless Adapter for wireless sensors 
 WARNING Do not apply line voltage (mains voltage) to the Wireless Adapter. 
The Carrier wireless sensors are available in 868, 902, and 928 MHz radio frequency. The sensors are thermistor-
based temperature sensors that may optionally sense humidity. 
Wireless sensors communicate through a Wireless Adapter, which is wired to the Rnet port of the controller. 
 
REQUIREMENTS 
  A v6.5 or later i-Vu® system 
  v6-xx-xxx or later controller drivers 
To configure the control program for the desired user interaction with the sensor, see the Wireless Sensors 
Application Guide. For detailed instructions, see the Wireless Sensors Installation Guide.

NOTES 
  The Wireless Adapter requires a 24 Vac power supply. It is not powered by the Rnet. 
  If the Wireless Adapter will be: 
○  Daisy-chained on the Rnet with ZS sensors, an Equipment Touch, or TruVu™ ET Displayuse the standard 
4-conductor Rnet wiring.  
○  The only device on the Rnet, you can use a 3-conductor cable instead of the standard 4-conductor Rnet 
cable. 
 
1  Turn off the power to the controller that the Wireless Adapter will be wired to.
