Application
TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensors are wall-mounted
digital temperature and humidity sensors for use with
TAC I/A Series MicroNet Controllers. These sensors
feature Sensor Link (S-Link) communication protocol
that provides a simple two wire interface for power and
exchange of sensor and subbase information.
Available in twelve models, these TAC I/A Series
MicroNet Sensors provide integral analog to digital
conversion for elimination of electrical interference
between sensor and controller. An optional wiring
connection allows access to the TAC MicroNet
L
ONWORKS
®
network (LON
®
) via a LONWORKS network
jack on the left side of each sensor. This jack allows
direct connection to a PC running WorkPlace Tech Tool
(WP Tech) or a third party Network Management Tool.
Each sensor also provides an S-Link jack on the right
side for connecting to a PDA running Pocket TAC I/A
software.
TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensors are suitable for
direct-wall, 2 x 4 electrical box, 1/4 DIN electrical box,
or surface box mounting.
