Using the UNI/16
The UNI/16 provides the communications
link between the CMnet and up to 16 U-Line
modules.
The UNI/16 uses the U1M module driver. See
the
U1M Module Driver
document at
http://www.automatedlogic.com, or the
SupportPlus CD for more information.
Changes or modifications to this
unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate equipment.
NOTE
This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference in which case the
user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.

Power Wiring
CAUTION
The UNI/16 module is a Class 2
device (less than 30VAC, 100VA maximum).
Take appropriate isolation measures when
mounting the UNI/16 module in a control
panel where non-Class 2 devices (for
example, 120VAC) or wiring are present.
