10.3.8 Option 8 - Remote Setpoint with MODBUS Header Sensor AND MODBUS
Setpoint Drive
NOTE
! Both Header Sensor AND ProtoNode SSD Device must be wired. See the C-More Controller User
Manual, OMM-0032, GF-112 and ProtoNode User Manual, OMM-0080, GF-129 for more information.
Step 1: MODbus Header Sensor
1. Using Shielded pair 18 - 22 AWG cable, Connect the Temperature Transmitter (
AERCO P/N 65169
)
terminal Pin B to the RS485+ terminal on the I/O Box of any of the Boiler units, and Pin A of the
Temperature Transmitter to the RS485- terminal on the I/O Box of any of the Boiler units.
2. Using Shielded pair 18 - 22 AWG cable, connect the Modbus Header Temperature Sensor (
AERCO
PN 24410
) to pins 2 and 3 of the Temperature Transmitter.
3. Install a jumper wire between pins 1 and 2 of the
Temperature Transmitter
.
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.
•
The header sensor must be installed between 2 and 10 feet downstream of the LAST boiler
in the plant’s supply water header.
•
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.
Step 2: Remote Setpoint with Network
1. Configure and Connect the SSD Device (ProtoNode) per the AERCO Manual (GF129).
Step 3: Configure ALL C-More Units
On ALL Boilers:
1. Go to the
Configuration Menu
and set the
BST Menu
item to
Enabled
.
2. Go to the
BST Menu
and set the
BST Mode
item to
BST Slave
(for now).
On MASTER only:
3. Go to the
BST Setpoint
item and enter the failsafe Setpoint.
4. Go to the
BST Setup Menu
item and set to
Enabled
.
5. Go to the
BST Setpoint Mode
item and select Remote
Setpoint
.
6. Go to the
BST Remote Signal
and select either
Network
.
7. Go to the
Head Temp Source
item and select
Network
.
8. Go to the
Header Temp Addr
item and
enter the Modbus Address (240).
9. Go to the
Header Temp Point
item and enter the Modbus Point (14).
When ALL C-More units have been configured:
10. Go to the
BST Menu
of the desired
Master
unit
and set the
BST Mode
item to
BST MASTER
