OPTION 4
Instructions: Outdoor Reset, Modbus Header Sensor & Modbus Outdoor Sensor
NOTES:
• Polarity must be observed for the RS485 connections. The ground for the shield is at
the “SHLD” terminal in the I/O the Box.
• When mounting the Outdoor sensor, it must be located on the North side of the building
where an average outside air temperature is expected. The sensor must be shielded
from direct sunlight as well as impingement by the elements. The outdoor sensor may
be wired up to 200 feet (61m) from the boiler.
• There is no polarity to be observed. The ground for the shield is at the power supply
ground. The sensor end of the shield must be left free and ungrounded.
