Network Wiring Notes
The ControlKeeper-4 is designed to communicate with other
ControlKeeper network panels using a lighting control RS-485
network for communications. This allows the panels to share
information and to be programmed from one central location
by a computer with the Keeper Enterprise Software.
Please refer to Table-1 for information on recommended wiring
for network.

Table-1 Network Wiring Recommendations
For best network performance, one of the suggested cables
should be used. If the specified cable is not used and
communications problems occur that require troubleshooting
assistance, additional charges for support may be assessed.
1. All low voltage wiring is Class 2.
2. All low voltage wiring must enter the cabinet from the left
side of the enclosure.
3. All low voltage wiring must be run in separate conduit from
line-voltage wiring.
4. Test all network wiring for shorts to AC ground before con
-
necting to the ControlKeeper-4 panel.
5. If using Belden 9841 or 89841, leave all shields disconnected
making certain that shield is not exposed.
6. Panels and devices on the RS-485 lighting network should
be daisy chained. Do not create a Star or T-Tapped
configuration.
7. Total network length should not exceed 4000 feet.
Network Wiring Details
1. Before wiring, select the two panels that are going to be
the end panels of the network and plan a wiring scheme
accordingly. Panels should be daisy chained, not Star or
T-Tapped.
2. Starting at one of the end panels, connect the n
and - terminals to the next panel’s n and - terminals.
Continue this process through the network making certain
to observe polarity. When finished, the two end panels will
have a single pair of wires coming into the network terminal
block while all middle panels in the network will have two
sets of wires.
3. Set the network termination jumpers. On the end panels on
the network set to the terminated position. For all panels in
the middle of the network, remove the network termination
jumper. See Figures-4&5 for details.
4. On the two end panels in the network, set the network
termination jumpers to the terminated position.
5. On the middle panels in the network, remove the network
termination jumpers.
6. Set all panel addresses using the panel network identifica
-
tion DIP Switches on each panel. See Figures 5&6 for
location and details.
7. Using the panel reset switch, issue a soft reset to each panel
to initialize the panel address. See Figure-5 for location of
the reset switch.
