IM 837-2 • MICROTECH II CHILLER UNIT CONTROLLER

Component Data

The BACnet IP communication module is a printed circuit 

board that inserts directly into the serial card slot of the 

MicroTech II chiller unit controller.  

Figure 1

 shows the 

communication module when fully inserted, as indicated by 

the “BCM” cover label. 

Figure 2 

shows the important features 

of the communication module, which are described in the 

following section.

Figure 1: BACnet IP Communication Module Attached to Unit Controller 

Figure 2: Communication Module Main Features  

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)

The communication module has a Status LED and an Ethernet 

LED to indicate communication activity and status of the 

module. These indicators are visible when the communication 

module is connected to the chiller unit controller and the unit is 

powered on.

Status LED

The Status LED indicates the communication state between 

the communication module and the unit controller. 

Table 1

 

describes the color and activity of the Status LED. 
During power-up, the status LED shows the following 

sequence:

• 

Off

• 

Two seconds after startup:  quick flashing red-green

•  Five seconds after startup:  steady green
• 

62 seconds after startup:  regularly flashing 

Once the startup process is complete, the Status LED blinks at 

regular intervals.

Table 1: Status LED Activity

Status LED Color

Description

Quick flashing green

Communication is established between the 

communication module and the unit controller.

Slow flashing red

Communication has not been established between 

the communication module and the unit controller.

Green/red flashing

The communication module detects an error or a 

temporary answer fault from the unit controller.

Ethernet LED

The Ethernet LED shows the communication status between 

the communication module and the Ethernet network.  The 

table below describes the status of the Ethernet LED.

Table 2: Ethernet LED Activity

Ethernet LED Color

Description

Red

Communication is not established.  

This can be due to several issues, 

including a cable defect, no power to 

the unit controller, or the cable is not 

connected to the network at the other 

end.

Green

Communication is established

.

NOTE: 

The color of the Ethernet LED is based only on the 

electrical connection.  The communication module 

checks for the right signals from the remote device in 

the Ethernet cable.  There are no parameter settings 

in the communication module that affect this LED.
