Installation
N
OTE
:
InteliGen NT or InteliSys NT controller (any of their hardware modification) equipped with the "IGS-NT-LSM-
PMS" dongle and programmed with IG-NT-BC or IS-NT-BC firmware must be used at the place of the Bank
controller.
N
OTE
:
It is not possible to monitor the whole multisite using one InteliMonitor. Each CAN bus must be monitored
separately.
CAN bus wiring
C
AUTION
!
Each controller in one segment of the CAN bus must contain unique controller address!
Inter gen-set controller CAN (CAN-B)
The Bank controller is connected with the gen-sets inside the bank via the CAN1 interface. That means
although the gen-set controllers are connected to the intrabank bus via their CAN2 interface the bank
controller uses CAN1 instead. The bank controller has fixed address 32, so gen-set controllers can use
address 1-31. See the
Figure: CAN bus wiring.
N
OTE
:
The gen-set controller is never connected directly to the CAN-A but it has to be always subordinated to
some BankController.
N
OTE
:
The request of the Bank Controller to run it´s subordinated gen-sets is distributed internally via CAN-B as
internal command Syst start/stop. It is not needed to be configured in the subordinated gen-set.
Interbank CAN (CAN-A)
Bank controllers are connected together via their CAN2 bus. The interbank bus can also contain InteliMains-
NT controllers. Address of the bank controller is adjusted by the setpoint
Comm Settings: Controller Address
.
N
OTE
:
It is not possible to use any peripherial module at CAN1 interface of the bank controller.
N
OTE
:
It is not possible to use InteliMains-NT controllers within the bank. The bank must contain only InteliGen NT
or InteliSys NT controller
s with standard firmware and special “MINT-BC” archive.
N
OTE
:
The general rules for CAN bus wiring remain valid, i.e. the total length of the CAN bus must not exceed
200m (250kbps) or 800m (50kbps).
