2 2. General Installation Requirements For proper installation and subsequent operation of the controller, pay special attention to the following recommendations: - It is recommended that the controller(s) be kept at room temperature for at least 24 hours before installation to allow any condensation that may have accumulated due to low temperature during shipping/storage to evaporate. - Upon unpacking the product, inspect the contents of the carton for shipping damages. o not install damaged controllers. - Avoid areas where corroding, deteriorating or explosive vapors, fumes or gases may be present. - Allow for proper clearance around the controller s enclosure, wiring terminals, and service pin (see Figure 17-1) to provide easy access for hardware configuration and maintenance, and to ventilate heat generated by the controller. Remember to record the 12-character Neuron I located on a sticker on top of the device (shown on a sticker below the barcode), for later commissioning. When installed in an enclosure, select one that provides sufficient surface area to dissipate the heat generated by the controller and by any other devices installed in the enclosure. A metal enclosure is preferred. If necessary, provide active cooling for the enclosure. - The controller s datasheet specifies the power consumption (amount of heat generated), the operating temperature range, and other environmental conditions the controller is designed to operate under. - Ensure that all equipment is installed according to local, regional, and national regulations. - o not drop the controller or subject it to physical shock. - If the controller is used and/or installed in a manner not specified by istech Controls, the functionality and the protection provided by the controller may be impaired. Any type of modification to any istech Controls product will void the product s warranty. Before installation of the Wireless Receiver, verify that local communication regulations allow the installation of wireless devices that operate at a frequency of 315 MHz or 868.3MHz. Refer to the Open-to-Wireless Solution Guide for more information. Take reasonable precautions to prevent electrostatic discharges to the controller when installing, servicing or operating the controller. ischarge accumulated static electricity by touching one s hand to a securely grounded object before working with the controller. 3. General Wiring Recommendations Turn off power before any kind of servicing. - All wiring must comply with electrical wiring diagrams as well as national and local electrical codes. - To connect the wiring to a controller, use the terminal connectors. Use a small flat screwdriver to tighten the terminal connector screws once the wires have been inserted. - Power type cables (i.e. for power, 2- and 3-wire voltage and current inputs and outputs, as well as triac outputs) should be kept apart from other types of wiring to avoid any ambient noise transmission to other wires. - The board connectors accept wires or flat cables ranging from 22 to 14AWG (0.644 to 1.630mm diameter) per pole. However, power cables must be between 18 and 14AWG (1.024 to 1.630mm diameter). - o not connect the universal inputs, analog/digital outputs or common terminals to earth or chassis ground (unless stated otherwise). - Keep all wires away from high speed data transmission cables (for example, Ethernet, etc.). - Keep input and output wiring in conduits, trays or close to the building frame if possible. 4. Mounting Instructions The following mounting instructions pertain to controllers that have a built-in actuator (ECL-VAVS-O, ECL-VAVS, ECL-VAV, or ECL-VVTS). If mounting a controller without a built-in actuator (ECL-VAV-N and ECL-103), simply mount the controller using the integrated mounting bracket(s) and screw(s) that are provided with the controller. Each controller is specially designed for easy installation either directly on an air duct or in a panel by using the integrated mounting collar and the screw that is provided with the controller. This mounting arrangement opposes the torque applied to the damper shaft. Mount the controller as follows: 1. Orient the controller into position on to the damper shaft so that wiring connections are easily accessible. The controller must be fitted onto the shaft such that the base of the controller is parallel to the VAV box (perpendicular to the damper shaft). If the damper shaft has an external bushing that prevents the controller from being mounted flush to the side of the VAV box, use a spacer of the same thickness to compensate and to ensure the controller is at a right-angle to the shaft to prevent binding. Condensation from the damper shaft will damage the controller s electronics. When the VAV box air supply is below 10 C (50 F), ensure that any condensation from the damper shaft or from the VAV box does not enter the controller s electronics. Under these conditions, mount the controller vertically above the damper shaft so that any condensation from the damper shaft will fall away from the controller. Further countermeasures may be required in some installations. 2. Using a power screwdriver, attach the controller to the VAV box with the screw provided with the controller through the controller s mounting bracket slider. Otherwise, mark the screw s position on the VAV box with a punch and then drill a hole into the VAV box. Then attach the controller to the VAV box with the screw provided with the controller. Avoid over tightening the mounting screw so as to not strip the threads. Make sure the screws do not interfere with damper blade movement. 3. Find the damper position by the marking typically found on the end of the damper shaft. Figure 4-1: Typical amper Shaft End Marking 4. etermine the direction required to close the damper: Clockwise (CW) or Counterclockwise (CCW). Turn the damper shaft with a pair of pliers to fully close the damper for 90 boxes or fully open the damper for 45 or 60 boxes. 5. Press and hold down the Actuator Clutch for Manual Adjustment button (see Figure 5-3), and turn the controller s shaft coupler until 2/12

3 PRESSURE HIGH LOW E E E E it touches the mechanical end-stop to either the fully closed position (90 boxes) or the fully open position (45 and 60 boxes). 6. For 90 VAV boxes: If the damper closes CCW, turn the coupler to the CCW mechanical stop limit. If the damper closes CW, turn the coupler to the CW mechanical stop limit. The open mechanical stop is factory preset for 90 boxes. For 45 and 60 VAV boxes: The mechanical stops must be set for both the fully closed and fully open damper positions. By installing the controller at the fully open position, the controller provides the open mechanical stop for 45 and 60 boxes. The closed damper seal provides the fully closed stop. 7. Tighten the U-Bolt clamp on to the damper shaft using an 8 mm (5/16 in.) wrench or socket. Tighten the bolts between 11 and 15 N m (100 and 130 lb in). 8. Test for free damper shaft movement: Press and hold down the Actuator Clutch for Manual Adjustment button and manually turn the actuator coupling to be certain that the actuator can rotate from full closed to full open positions without binding. 9. Connect the VAV box s flow sensor tubing to the controller s Pressure Sensor Inputs. Create a condensation trap in the pneumatic tubing by forming it into a vertical loop. 10. Finalize the installation by rotating the damper to the full open position. CAUTION: Risk of Property amage. Ensure that the damper is at the full open position before starting the air handler. Failure to rotate the damper to its full-open position may result in damage to the Variable Air Volume (VAV) box or ductwork when the air handler is started. min. 40 mm (1.5") 61.5 [2.42] 10 [0.40] Units Legend: mm [in] 190 [7.48 ] High pressure Low pressure Figure 5-2: VAV-N and ECL-103 series dimensions amper Shaft Clamping Mechanism Opening for amper Shaft Mechanical Stops Actuator Clutch for Manual Adjustment 11 [0.43] 3 mm 0.12 in 54 [2.13 ] 5 [0.2] Bracket mouting kit 26.5 [1.04] Connectors Integrated Mounting Brackets PRESSURE HIGH LOW Pressure Sensor Inputs (when equipped) Service Pin Figure 4-2: Mounting a controller on a damper shaft Figure 5-3: VAVS-O, VAVS, VAV & VVTS series components 5.

Use a Class 2 transformer only (rated at 100VA or less at 24VAC) to power the controller(s). The Network Guide provides extensive information and requirements for powering a VAV that uses a LONWORKS network for communications. It can be downloaded from our website. It is recommended to wire only one controller per 24VAC transformer. If only one 24VAC transformer is available, determine the maximum number of VAVs that can be supplied on a single power cable supplied by a 100 VA transformer, according to the cable s wire gauge and the total cable length from the following table. Table 7-1: Maximum Number of VAV evices on a Power Run AWG Power Run Total Cable Length Maximum Number of 7 VA per device 1 Maximum Number of 10 VA per device M (250 feet) M (200 feet) M (150 feet) M (100 feet) M (200 feet) M (150 feet) M (100 feet) M (150 feet) M (100 feet) Maximum Number of evices@ 15 VA per device 3 1.

Use a wire nut with a pig tail to make such a connection. Any installation condition that is outside of the parameters of Table 7-1 should be avoided. Use an external fuse on the 24VAC side (secondary side) of the transformer, as shown in Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2, to protect all controllers against power line spikes. Maintain consistent polarity when connecting controllers and devices to the transformer. That is, the terminal of each controller and each peripheral should be connected to the same terminal on the secondary side of the transformer. Figure 7-1: Figure 7-2: The terminals of the controller are internally wired to the 24V terminal of the power supply. Connecting a peripheral or another controller to the same transformer without maintaining polarity between these devices will cause a short circuit.

However it is good installation practice to do so in order to maintain the same potential between all controllers and Protective Earth. 8. Input Wiring Each controller has physical connections for inputs (marked as ) that are configured with EC-gfxProgram. Each input can be configured for digital, resistive, current, voltage, or pulse signals. Input types must be configured properly in software to ensure proper input readings. Before connecting a sensor to the controller, refer to the installation guide of the equipment manufacturer. For a wire length less than 75 (23m), either a shielded or unshielded 18AWG wire may be used. For a wire up to 200 (61m) long, a shielded 18AWG wire is recommended. The shield of the wire should be grounded on

5 the controller side and the shield length should be kept as short as possible.

Allure EC-Smart-Vue Wiring The Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor is a communicating room temperature sensor with backlit display and graphical menus. and has VAV balancing capabilities. Connect the Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor to the controller with a standard Category 5e Ethernet patch cable fitted with RJ-45 connectors. The Network Guide provides extensive information and requirements for the connection of Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensors. It contains information about network topology and length, cable type, setting the Subnet I, etc. It can be downloaded from our website. See also the Hardware Installation Guide supplied with the Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor. If you make your own patch cable, use Category 5e cable crimped with RJ-45 connectors either as T568A or T568B. - o not crimp one connector as T568A and crimp the other connector as T568B on the same cable. - Protect the controller s connector from being pulled on when a cable to the Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor is connected. Create a strain-relief by looping the cable and attaching it to a solid object with a nylon tie so that a tug on the cable will not pull out the connector on the controller.

Output Wiring Each controller has physical connections for either digital (triac) and/or universal outputs, depending on the type and model. The power source type for digital outputs is hardware configurable and must be configured by changing the jumper settings on the printed circuit board (for jumper location, see Section 6). The universal outputs are software configurable. Before connecting an output device (actuator, relay, etc.) to the controller, refer to the installation guide of the equipment manufacturer. For a wire length less than 75 (23m) long, either a shielded or unshielded 18AWG wire may be used. For a wire up to 200 (61m) long, a shielded 18AWG wire is recommended. The shield of the wire should be grounded on the controller side and the shield length should be kept as short as possible. Wiring igital Outputs (Ox) igital outputs are all made of triacs and can be configured as either powered outputs or non-powered outputs and output wiring must be done accordingly. - The non-powered output type does not have any voltage on the output terminals when the output is active. Power must be supplied externally. - The powered output type has 24VAC on the output terminals when the output is active. Power is therefore supplied internally by the controller. It should be noted that all controllers are shipped with all digital outputs configured as powered outputs. Maximum output current for all digital outputs (whether powered or non-powered) is 0.5A continuous or 15% duty cycle for a 10-minute period. To measure the state of a digital output (TRIAC), an external load must be connected. O1 and O2 share the same C1-2 common terminal and are controlled by a single jumper and must therefore be set identically. Similarly, O3 and O4 (VAV, VVT and ECL-103 product lines only) share the same C3-4 common terminal and are controlled by a single jumper and must therefore be set identically. The jumpers are used to specify whether an internal or external power source is being used. For jumper location, see Section 6. If a 24VAC relay is being controlled using an external or internal power supply, connect the digital output according to the following figures. External power supplies must be grounded as shown in Figure 10-1 and Figure Figure 10-2: JUMPER SETTINGS Ox Cx-x A2 24VAC Relay igital output with internal power supply Relay If a floating actuator is being controlled using an external or internal power supply, connect the digital output according to the following figures.

The discrete signal can be used to generate a pulse wave modulation (PWM) signal or a simple two-state signal. These outputs are protected by an auto-reset fuse.

Communications Wiring The recommended cable type for LONWORKS communications is 22AWG (0.65 mm), twisted pair, unshielded. The LONWORKS communication wire is polarity insensitive and can be laid out in a bus, star, loop or free topology. For loop topology, polarity is important, special care must be taken when connecting the LONWORKS network to avoid short circuit. 6/12

7 It is recommended to use the bus topology network configuration for all LonWorks communication wiring, as it allows for easy network troubleshooting. Connect both wires to the LON+ and LON- terminals of the controller. If inserting multiple wires in the terminals, ensure to properly twist wires together prior to inserting them in the terminal connectors. LON Network To Next Controller Controller 1 LON+ LON- Controller 2 LON+ LON- Figure 11-1: Communications wiring For more information and detailed explanations on network topology and wire length restrictions, refer to the Network Guide. It can be downloaded from our website. It is important to use proper network terminators depending on the type of network topology used. Failure to do so might result in communication errors between controllers. Selecting Network Terminators Topology istech Controls Part # Bus PII-BT-TP10XX Free PII-FT-TP10XX For a bus topology, 2 network terminators are required (1 at each end of the bus topology channel). For a free topology, 1 network terminator is required and it can be put anywhere on the channel. When used with an Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor, the network can be accessed at the sensor s audio plug port for commissioning and maintenance purposes, when the two Net to Subnet Port Settings jumpers inside the ECL series controller are set to Enable (for jumper location, see Section 6). This will connect the main LONWORKS network to the Allure EC-Smart-Vue subnetwork Cat5e cable. Recommendation: Only a limited number of controllers on a LONWORKS network segment should have their Net to Subnet Port Settings jumpers enabled. Enabling too many Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensors with network access may cause network communication issues. If there are any network communication problems, refer to Section 18. The Cat5e cable length is restricted by the maximum allowable subnetwork bus length (see the Allure EC-Smart-Vue Hardware Installation Guide for more information). contacts and light switches. These devices are easy to install, and can be mounted on a wide range of building materials. The Wireless Receiver is available in 315MHz or 868.3MHz frequencies. Before connecting any wireless equipment to the controller, refer to the Open-to-Wireless Solution Guide. Connecting the Wireless Receiver The Wireless Receiver is connected to the controller using a 2m (6.5ft) telephone cable with 4P4C modular connectors at both ends. o not exceed this cable length. The Wireless Receiver s telephone socket is located inside the device. To locate it, open the Wireless Receiver by separating its front and back plates. Figure 12-1: Location of the Wireless Receiver s telephone socket Connecting to the Controller s Wireless Port Each controller has a wireless port in which one end of the Wireless Receiver s telephone cable plugs in. Uncover the controller to locate the wireless port on the PCB board (marked as Wireless Module). 13. Terminal Block Cover In certain jurisdictions, terminal block covers are required to meet local safety regulations. Terminal block covers are available for all controllers and are used to conceal the controllers wire terminals. Terminal block covers are optional and are sold as peripherals. The terminal block cover can be clipped on to the controller as shown below.
