F4-CG Series General Purpose Application

Controllers Installation Guide

Application

The CG series general purpose application controllers

are well-suited for controlling a wide variety of facility

and HVAC equipment, including fan coils, air handling

units, packaged HVAC equipment, and central plant

equipment. CG series controllers run pre-engineered and

user-programmed applications.

CG series controllers include an integral real-time clock,

which enables the controllers to monitor and control

schedules, calendars, and trends, and operate for

extended periods of time as standalone controllers when

offline from the Facility Explorer system network. Certain

models feature an integral color display with a navigation

keypad that enables enhanced local monitoring and

control of field equipment.

Communications Protocols

CG series controllers can communicate using multiple

communication protocols depending on model and

configuration. CGE controllers communicate using the

BACnet

Secure Connect (BACnet/SC) or BACnet/IP

communication protocol. CGM controllers communicate

using the BACnet MS/TP, N2 or wireless communications

protocols, with the addition of ZFR183x Pro Wireless Field

Bus Routers.

Equipment controllers in BACnet/SC, BACnet/IP, or

BACnet MS/TP communication mode are BACnet network-

compliant devices. The BACnet protocol is a standard

for ANSI, ASHRAE, and the International Standards

Organization (ISO) for building controls.

Controllers running in N2 mode can be used to maintain

or modernize sites with installed legacy Johnson Controls

controllers. For installation and commissioning support,

and tips for efficient and safe replacement, refer

to the Modernization Guide for Legacy N2 Controllers

(LIT-12012005) and the controller-specific documentation.

For information about mapping N2 Objects in controllers

with switchable communications protocols, refer to the

N2 Compatibility Options chapter of the Controller Tool Help

(LIT-12011147). To configure CGM series controllers to

communicate using the N2 communications protocol, see

Configuring N2 communications (CGM models only).

To configure CGM controllers to communicate using

the wireless communications protocol, see Configuring

wireless communications (CGM models only).

North American Emissions Compliance

United States

This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed

to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference when this equipment is operated in a

commercial environment. This equipment generates,

uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the instruction

manual, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. Operation of this equipment in a

residential area may cause harmful interference, in which

case the users will be required to correct the interference

at their own expense.

Canada

This Class (A) digital apparatus meets all the

requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing

Equipment Regulations.

Cet appareil numérique de la Classe (A) respecte toutes

les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel brouilleur du

Canada.

Installation

Observe the following guidelines when installing the

controller:

• To minimize vibration and shock damage to the

controller, transport the controller in the original

container.

• Verify that all parts shipped with the controller.

• Do not drop the controller or subject it to physical

shock.

Parts included

• One CGM/CGE controller with removable terminal

blocks (Input/Output, Power, FC, and SA Bus terminal

blocks are removable)

• One F4-CG Pack Sheet (Part No. A1638165JV)

Note: The FC terminal block is only available with the

CGM model.

Materials and special tools needed

• Three fasteners appropriate for the mounting surface

(M4 screws or #8 screws)

• One 20 cm (8 in.) or longer piece of 35 mm DIN rail and

appropriate hardware for DIN rail mount (only)

• Small straight-blade (1/8 in. or 3.0 mm) or Philips #1

screwdriver for securing wires in the terminal blocks
