If a controller supports:
• Only one control program, you can wire up to 5 ZS sensors to its
port.
• Multiple control programs, you can wire up to 15 ZS sensors to its
port. A control program can use no
more than 5 ZS Sensors, so you must use multiple control programs if your Rnet network has more than 5
sensors.
Do the following to create your control program:
Step 1: Add a Sensor Binder microblock. (page 5)
Step 2: Add Analog Sensed Value Input microblocks. (page 6)
Step 3: Add Binary Sensed Value Input microblocks. (page 9)
Step 4: Add a BACnet Setpoint microblock. (page 11)
Step 5: Add a BACnet Time Clock microblock. (page 13)
Step 6: Add optional values, status, and icons. (page 14)
Step 7: Set the order of information displayed on a sensor. (page 14)
See the Microblock Reference Help for a full description of each of the above microblocks.
Step 1: Add a Sensor Binder microblock
From the Snap
microblock menu, add 1
microblock to the workspace to enable
communication between microblocks in the control program and up to 5 ZS Sensors. Enter the following
information in the Property Editor.
The Index number is a reference number for each sensor that you define in
this microblock. ASVI and BSVI microblocks will refer to the sensors by their
index number.
Type an intuitive name for the ZS sensor's location. This name will appear in
the ASVI, BSVI, and Setpoint microblocks in the i-Vu interface.
Select Rnet for each ZS Sensor that you define.
The physical address (0–14) set on the ZS sensor's DIP switches.
Check to lock a ZS Pro or ZS Pro-F sensor's buttons. The sensor's Home
screen will display a icon. The lock can be overridden in the i-Vu interface
or at the sensor by a user that knows the override procedure.
