Applications

The NCM45x0-2 Series Network Control Module is a

Metasys®

supervisory controller that emulates the

NCM350/361, yet uses the same hardware platform as
the Network Automation Engine (NAE45). The
NCM45x0-2 Series is offered in two models: N2 Bus or
LON Network. In this document,

Network Control Module

(NCM)

refers to either model. See

Figure 1

North American Emissions
Compliance

United States

This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is
connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

Canada

This Class (B) digital apparatus meets all the
requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing
Equipment Regulations.

Cet appareil numérique de la Classe (B) respecte
toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel
brouilleur du Canada.

Installation

Follow these guidelines when installing an

NCM

:

Transport the NCM in the original container to
minimize vibration and shock damage to the NCM.

Verify that all the parts shipped with the NCM.

Do not drop the NCM or subject it to physical shock.

Do not open the NCM housing (except the data
protection battery compartment). The NCM has no
user-serviceable parts inside.

Parts Included

one

NCM

with removable terminal plugs

one data protection battery (installed and connected
at the factory)

one Installation Instructions sheet

Materials and Special Tools Needed

three fasteners appropriate for the mounting surface
(#8 screws or M4 screws), or one 20 cm (8-in.) or
longer piece of DIN rail and appropriate hardware for
mounting the DIN rail

small straight-blade screwdriver for securing wires in
