1. Connect the computer’s serial port to the
EIA-232 port of the APT using a standard
straight-through serial cable.
2. Set the APT’s Mode Select switch.
• On an ARC156 network segment, use
the TTL setting.
• On a legacy CMnet, use the 485 setting.
3. Connect the Access port of the APT to the
Access port of the module.
4. In SuperVision, define the connection type
using Table 1.
Input/Output
The InterOP8500 is equipped with 8 binary
inputs, 15 analog inputs, and 16 binary
outputs. Any of the analog inputs can be used
as digital inputs. Table 2 summarizes the
requirements for conductors between the
Johnson Controls field devices and the
termination board.
All wiring to remote devices must be kept
separate from power wiring in the area.
Exposed drain wire at the termination board
should be kept as short as possible, not
exceeding two inches (5 centimeters). All field
devices should be terminated using a
correctly sized wire nut or, when terminals
are provided, a solderless crimp-type
connection should be made.
Analog Inputs
The InterOP8500 provides access to 15 analog
inputs through the Johnson Controls field
termination board. Use the formulas in the
“Calculating Offset and Gain” on page 12
section to read signals from these inputs.
There are four field terminals for each AI
point 1 through 7, and five for each AI point 8
through 15 (see Figure 12 on page 10). The
function of these terminals is as follows:
Termination Row 1
This terminal is for
analog inputs and is connected to a
multiplexer.
Termination Row 2
This terminal is
connected to a reg2.5VDC supply.
