10.3.2 Option 2 - Constant Setpoint with MODBUS Wired Header Sensor
Step 1: MODbus Header Sensor Wiring
1. Using Shielded pair 18 - 22 AWG cable, connect the Temperature Transmitter (
AERCO P/N 65169
)
terminal Pin B to the RS485+ terminal on the I/O Box of any of the Boiler units, and Pin A of the
Temperature Transmitter to the RS485- terminal on the I/O Box of any of the Boiler units.
2. Using Shielded pair 18 - 22 AWG cable, connect the Modbus Header Temperature Sensor (
AERCO
PN 24410
) to pins 2 and 3 of the Temperature Transmitter.
3. Install a jumper wire between pins 1 and 2 of the
Temperature Transmitter
.
NOTES
:
•
Polarity must be observed for the RS485 connections.
•
The ground for the shield is at the “SHLD” terminal in the I/O the Box.
•
The header sensor must be installed between 2 and 10 feet downstream of the LAST
boiler in the plant’s supply water header.
•
There is no polarity to be observed. The ground for the shield is at the power supply
ground. The sensor end of the shield must be left free and ungrounded.

.
5. Go to the
BST Setpoint Mode
item and select Constant
Setpoint
.
6. Go to the
Head Temp Source
item and select
Network
.
7. Go to the
Header Temp Addr
item and
enter the Modbus Address (240).
8. Go to the
Header Temp Point
item and enter the Modbus Point (14).
When ALL C-More units have been configured
:
9. Go to the
BST Menu
of the desired
Master
unit
and set the
