To make use of this feature, ensure the DIP switches
are set to the desired address and wire the input
and output terminals. Apply power to the FAC
controller and connect to the device with either a
MAP Gateway or MS-DIS1710-0 Local Display to view
the points in the controller. The FAC controller will
report an Operational status even though there is
no true application loaded. CCT will not be able to
commission or upload the device as a result until
a true application is downloaded. The application
name displayed will be the address of the controller
followed by the model of the controller and “Default
State”.
For example, a FAC3613 controller whose DIP
switches are set to 8 would have the default state
application name of “8-FAC3613 Default State”.
The default state creates I/O points for all
connections on the input and output terminals.
It assumes all Universal Inputs (UIs) are Nickel
temperature sensors. The default state also takes
input from a Network Sensor at address 199. If there
is no connected Network Sensor, the startup of this
default state will be delayed by 30 seconds as the
controller attempts to establish connection with the
sensor.
Commissioning Controllers
You commission BACnet MS/TP controllers with the
(Controller Configuration Tool ) CCT software. The
controller can be connected using NxE Passthru,
Bluetooth (using BTCVT), or through MAP 4.2+/
BACnet Router (Mobile Access Portal (MAP) Gateway
at version 4.2 or above). Refer to
Controller Tool
Help (LIT-12011147)
for detailed information on
commissioning field controllers. Beginning at
CCT Release 13, the firmware package files are
orderable separately; they are not included with
CCT. They are obtained from the Metasys software
licensing portal, and are loaded and licensed on the
computer/server that is running CCT. .
Note:
The MAP Gateway serves as a
replacement for the BTCVT, which is no longer
available for purchase, but continues to be
supported.
Firmware Package File
The MS-FCP-0 equipment controller firmware
package files are required for CCT to configure and
commission the controllers. The firmware package
files also allow you to upgrade an existing controller
to the latest firmware release available for that
controller.
Beginning at CCT Release 13, the firmware package
files are orderable separately; they are not included
with CCT. They are obtained from the
Metasys
software licensing portal, and are loaded and
licensed on the computer/server that is running
CCT.
For additional information about the firmware
package files, refer to the
CCT Installation Instructions

Troubleshooting Controllers
Observe the Status LEDs on the front of the field
controller and see the table below to troubleshoot
the controller. To troubleshoot an integral or
local controller display, refer to the
DIS1710 Local
Controller Display Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011270)
