Wiring for communications
The Zone Ctrl II communicates using BACnet on the following types of network segments:
• MS/TP communicating at 9600 bps, 19.2 kbps, 38.4 kbps, or 76.8 kbps
• ARC156 communicating at 156 kbps
For more networking details, see the Open Controller Network Wiring Installation Guide.
Wiring specifications for BACnet MS/TP and ARC156
Cable: 22 AWG or 24 AWG, low-capacitance, twisted, stranded, shielded copper wire
Maximum length: 2000 feet (610 meters)
Do not apply line voltage (mains voltage) to the controller's ports and terminals.
To wire the controller to the BACnet network
Attaching any ARCNET or MS/TP network to the
port damages BT485s, DIAG485s, or
terminating resistors on that network.
1 Pull the screw terminal connector from the controller's power terminals labeled
and
.
2 Check the communications wiring for shorts and grounds.
3 Connect the communications wiring to the controller’s screw terminals labeled
,
, and
.
Use the same polarity throughout the network segment.
4 Set the communication type and baud rate.
Set BACnet ARC156 or
MS/TP
Set DIP switches 1 and 2 to...
ARC156
N/A. Baud rate will be 156 kbps regardless of
the DIP switch settings.
MS/TP
The appropriate baud rate. See the
diagram on the controller.
Use the same baud rate for all controllers on the network segment.
