CAUTION

• The Control-485 must be installed in accordance with national, state, and local electrical codes and requirements.
• All work must be performed by qualified personnel.
• The common signal from the Control-485 should not be tied to earth ground.
• Disconnect all power before installation or service.

NEEDED MATERIAL

• Screw Driver: A #2 Phillips is required to connect the cables to the terminals.
• Mounting: Mounting brackets are included. Mounting hole fits #10 screw
• Conduit: To maintain the IP rating of the unit, it must be installed with ½” cable glands or with weather-proof ½” conduit fittings at the power/signal entry points.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Select a suitable installation location for the Control485 e.g. between the BACnet thermostat and the HVAC/MAU.

2. Select between inline or adjacent installation, see Figure 1 for more details.

3. Mount the Control-485 using the brackets included.
   (See last page of this install guide for mounting template).

4. Open the enclosure cover.

5. Install cable glands or conduit fitting as required.

6. For AC powered: Connect the AC power wires (e.g. from the HVAC 24VAC transformer) to wire terminals COMMON and 24VAC/DC maintaining the correct polarity. See Figure 2

7. For DC Powered: Connect the DC power supply wire (+) to 24VAC/VDC and (-) to COMMON. See Figure 3.

8. If the Control-485 is being connected inline with the BACnet thermostat, connect the thermostat power wires to the same Control-485 terminals COM/GND and 24VAC/DC. See Figure 2

9. RS-485/BACnet serial connections: Connect the Control-485 screw terminal D+ to MS/TP+ on the BACnet thermostat, D- to MS/TP- and GND to GND ;or connect to D+ to D+, D- to D- and GND to GND on any other RS-485 serially controlled devices. See Figure 4.

10. RS-422 serial connections: For serially controlled devices using the RS-422 standard, connect the Control-485 screw terminal RD- to the controlled device terminal TD-, RD+ to TD+, TD+ to RD+, TDto RD- and GND to GND respectively. See Figure 5.

11. Ensure all control lines are reattached to the thermostat.
