Product Description

3.1 General
Installed into a duct, a small amount of air flows through the divided probe into the EE850 enclosure, where the CO2 sensing cell is located, and back into the duct. The RH and T sensing elements are placed inside the probe.
Very important
For accurate measurement the cover of EE850 as well as the cable outlet – cable gland or conduit adapter – must be closed tightly. This is essential for avoiding ingress of air other than from the duct into the EE850 enclosure, which would falsify the measurement.
Please note: The direction of air flow in the duct shall correspond to the direction indicated with arrows on the EE850 cover. Depending on the EE850 version, the response time specified is only valid for direction marked with the blue arrow with respect to the cable gland position. Air flow in the opposite direction might lead to longer response time.

3.2 Installation

All values in mm / inch
EE850 with conduit connection for the North American market: use a flat screwdriver to carefully break open the plastic knockout at the marked location, in order to avoid damaging the electronics inside the enclosure.
The conduit adapter is not included in the scope of supply.
3.3 Electrical Connection

3.4 Setup and Adjustment
The EE850 is ready to use and does not require any configuration by the user. The factory setup of EE850 corresponds to the type number ordered. For ordering guide please see data sheet at www.epluse.com/ee850.
If needed, the user can change the factory setup by using the optional USB Configuration Adapter (HA011066) and the Product Configuration Software (EE- PCS). One can change the CO2 output signal, the scaling of the outputs and perform CO2, RH and T adjustment/calibration.
Please note: The EE850 may not be connected to any additional power supply when using the USB Configuration Adapter (HA011066).

MODEL EE850-M10:
Select the CO2 output signal:
The output signal can be changed from voltage to current or vice-versa. Set the output signal selection switch to I for current 4 – 20 mA output or to U for voltage 0 – 10 V output. The original CO2 output range does not change and the calibration data remains valid.

Example:
Factory setup: voltage output (U), output scale: 0 – 10 V = 0…10 000 ppm User setup (after setting the output signal selection switch to I): current output (I), output scale: 4 – 20 mA = 0…10 000 ppm.
MODELS EE850-M11 and EE850-M12:
Changing the CO2 and T output scale:
The scaling of the output can be changed by using USB Configuration Adapter (HA011066) and Product Configuration Software (EE-PCS).
Example:

The initial scaling of the outputs is:| The output scale after the change is:
---|---
CO2: 0 – 10 V = 0…10 000 ppm T:| CO2: 0 – 10 V = 400…8 000 ppm
0 – 10 V = 0…50 °C| T: 0 – 10 V = 40…100 °F
RH: 0 – 10 V = 0…100 %RH| Td: 0 – 10 V = -20…40 °C

Please note:

• After changing the factory setup (output signal and/or output scale) the original type number on the EE850 identification label loses its validity; it does not match any longer the device setup.
• The return to factory setup function of EE-PCS restores the original adjustment/calibration of the device, but does not affect the user setup for output signal and output scale.

The Product Configuration Software (EE-PCS) is available for free download at www.epluse.com/configurator.
3.5 Digital Settings
3.5.1 Bus Termination Resistor
Hardware:
The bus termination shall be realized with the 120 Ω resistor (slide switch on the board).

Very important:
For proper function the power supply must be strong enough to ensure supply voltage within the specified range (see technical data) at any time and at all devices in the bus. This is particularly relevant when using long and thin cables which can cause high voltage drop. Please note that a single EE850 requires peak current of 350 mA.
3.5.2 Modbus Address Setting
Address setting via EE-PCS Product Configuration Software:
All DIP switches at position 0 → address has to be set via PCS
Modbus (Slave device): factory setting EE850: 67 (permitted values: 1…247).
BACnet (Master device): factory setting EE850: 67 (permitted values: 0…127).
Example: Modbus address is set via configuration software.

Address setting via DIP switch:
Modbus (Slave device): Setting the DIP switches to any other address than 0, overrules the Modbus address set via configuration software (permitted values: 1…247).
BACnet (Master device): Setting the DIP switches to any other address than 0, overrules the Modbus address set via configuration software.
BACnet Note: permitted values are 0…127.
The 8th bit of the DIP switches is ignored (Modbus adress 127 = 0111 111).
To set address 0 via DIP switches, the 8th bit shall be set to 1 (Modbus adress 0 = 1000 0000).
Example: Modbus address set to 11 (= 0000 1011 binary).
3.5.3 BACnet Setup
Please see PICS (Product Implementation Conformance Statement) – available at www.epluse.com/ee850.
