Changes to Max Master and Max Info frames require a power
cycle/reset to take effect.

ELECTRICAL WIRING
Figure 1 shows how to connect the TUF in a network containing a common power
supply. Use a cable containing two twisted pairs. One pair is to be used for RS 485/
BACnet (+) and (-). The other pair is used for power and common. This configuration
is suitable for AC and DC supplies. Care should be taken that there are not too many
devices powered from the same supply as voltage drops will occur in the wiring. If you
have many devices, or have long cable runs, the local supply configuration may be a
better choice.
Figure 2 also shows how to connect the TUF in a network containing individual local
supplies. Use a cable containing a twisted pair and a single conductor. The pair is to
be used for (+) and (-). The single conductor is to be used for common.
All devices in the network should be daisy chained. Star connections and T connections
are not permitted.
The TUF meter is provided standard with a 3ft (0.91 m) cable with 4 x 0.2 mm2 wires
that are Red, Black, Green and Yellow. As displayed in Figure 3, the Red wire is
Power (+), Black wire is Common (-), and the Green and Yellow wires are for RS 485
BACnet Communication where Green is (-) and Yellow is (+).

BACnet Communication Protocol Object Overview
The device Supports the following objects
Device Information
The default device object identifier is 32001. The object identifier will change as the
MS/TP MAC address changes.
Accessing the Measurements
The analog input object AI1 through AI4 are for viewing the pressure measurement in
the desired engineering units. The object property tables for these analog input objects
can be found in Appendix III.
Analog value object AV1 through AV4 are for viewing the Air Velocity or Air Flow
calculated values in the desired engineering units. The object property tables for the
analog value objects can be found in Appendix IV.
Accessing the Measurements
The analog input object AI0 through AI2 and AI5 through AI7 are for viewing unit
measurements in specific engineering units. The object property tables for these
analog input objects with appropriate engineering units can be found in Appendix II.
Analog value object AV0 through AV4 are for viewing additional information such as
meter mode, balance sheet and time. The object property table for the analog value
objects with appropriate units and formats can be found in Appendix III and IV.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
1. The communication write status features a power off save, where the last
communicated information will be saved upon powering off the unit.
2. Information is accessed at a rate of 1 per minute.
3. Communication time is linked to the meter clock, and will automatically reset on
power on. If the time needs to be corrected and is updated via the communications
the meter clock will automatically update.
4. With respect to the accumulative heating capacity, accumulative cooling capacity
and accumulative flow in the variable table, when this information is transferred
via communication only whole numbers will be uploaded. The decimal portion of the
reading will only be displayed on the TUF meter LCD screen.
Wiring should comply with
Electrical Characteristics of Generators
and Receivers for Use in Balanced Digital Multipoint Systems, TIA/
EIA-485-A-1998
, Telecommunications Industry Association, 1998.
Wiring should comply with
ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 135-2010
BACnet A Data Communication Protocol for Building Automation
and Control Networks,
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating
and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc., 2010.
Communications wiring must be in a daisy-chain fashion. Star
connections are not permitted.
