Zone sensors
You can wire ZS sensors and/or a Wireless Adapter that communicates with wireless sensors to the TV-VAVB3-
E2's Rnet port. You can have up to 10 ZS and/or wireless sensors.
NOTES
•
A control program can use no more than 5 ZS sensors, so you must use multiple control programs if your
Rnet network has more than 5 sensors.
•
ZS and wireless sensors can share the Rnet with an Equipment Touch or TruVu™ ET Display.
CAUTION
Rnet power
The Rnet port provides 12 Vdc at up to 260 mA. When determining which devices to put on the Rnet, verify that
the total current draw of the sensors does not exceed the controller's Rnet power. See the sensor's I
nstallation
and Start-up Guide
to determine the power required.
