IOM2721 Input/Output Module Installation Guide
Application
The IOM2721 input/output expansion module is part of
the
Metasys
®
system Field Equipment Controller family.
Input/Output expansion modules (IOMs) expand the
number of Input/Output points connected to either a
Network Automation Engine (NAE), Network Control
Engine (NCE), Advanced Application Field Equipment
Controller (FAC), Field Equipment Controller (FEC), or
Variable Air Volume Modular Assembly (VMA) to monitor
and control a wide variety of HVAC equipment.
IOMs operate on an RS-485 BACnet
®
MS/TP Bus and
integrate into Johnson Controls
®
and third-party BACnet
systems. IOMs communicate using the BACnet MS/TP
protocol when directly connected to the FC Bus.
Note:
With Release 10.1 or later of the Controller
Configuration Tool (CCT), VMAs, FECs, and FACs
can be configured to communicate using either
the BACnet MS/TP or the N2 field bus networking
protocol. The operation of the IOM is not affected by
the selection of the BACnet MS/TP or the N2 protocol
in the host controller, when the IOM is connected to
the host controller using the SA bus.
North American emissions compliance
United States
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to Part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when
