ATC1510 Advanced Terminal Unit Controller

Installation Guide

About This Product

The Advanced Terminal Unit Controller (ATC) runs

custom, freely-programmed applications, and provides

the inputs and outputs required to monitor and control

a wide variety of HVAC/R equipment.

The ATCs operate as BACnet® Application Specific

Controllers (B-ASC) and integrate into Johnson

Controls® and third-party BACnet systems.

Communication Protocols

You can configure the field bus communication

protocol in the ATC as a standard BACnet MS/TP device

or an N2 protocol device. You can use the Controller

Configuration Tool (CCT) to switch the communication

protocol. Switchable communication protocols provide

a cost-effective upgrade and modernization path for

customers with existing N2 controllers.

Compliance Information

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 this equipment is operated

in a commercial environment. This equipment

generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance

with the instruction manual, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. Operation

of this equipment in a residential area may cause

harmful interference, in which case the users will

be required to correct the interference at their own

expense.

This Class (A) digital apparatus meets all the

requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing

Equipment Regulations.

Installation

Observe the following guidelines when installing an

ATC:

• To minimize vibration and shock damage to the

controller, transport the controller in the original

Wiring

The following procedure describes how to wire the

ATC. The ATC ports and buses are described in Figure 6.

CAUTION

Risk of Electric Shock

Disconnect the power supply before making electrical

connections to avoid electric shock.

ATTENTION

Risque de décharge électrique

Débrancher l'alimentation avant de réaliser tout rac-

cordement électrique afin d'éviter tout risque de

décharge électrique.

CAUTION

Risk of Property Damage

Do not apply power to the system before checking all

wiring connections. Short circuited or improperly con-

nected wires may result in permanent damage to the

equipment.

ATTENTION

Risque de dégâts matériels

Ne pas mettre le système sous tension avant d'avoir

vérifié tous les raccords de câblage. Des fils for-

mant un court-circuit ou connectés de façon incor-

recte risquent d'endommager irrémédiablement

l'équipement.

1. Wire the FC Bus Terminal Block. The ATC features

a blue, removable, 4-terminal FC Bus block that

fits into a board-mounted jack. Wire the FC bus as

shown in Figure 1.

Note: Controllers can be daisy-chained by

inserting two wires into each connection.

Figure 1: FC Bus Terminal Block Wiring

2. Wire the SA Bus Terminal. The ATC features a

brown, removable, 4-terminal SA Bus block that

fits into a board-mounted jack. Wire the SA Bus as

shown in Figure 2.

Note:

- SA bus devices can be daisy-chained

by inserting two wires into each

connection.

- The SA BUS PWR terminal on the ATC

supplies 15 VDC, up to 210 mA. The

SA BUS PWR terminal can be used to

connect the 15 VDC power leads on

the SA Bus to power other devices

that are connected in a daisy chain

configuration. If a device has an SA

BUS PWR output, do not connect it to

the ATC SA BUS PWR output.

Figure 2: SA Bus Terminal Block Wiring

3. The SA Bus port on the controller is an RJ-12, 6-

position modular jack that provides a connection

for the Mobile Access Portal (MAP) Gateway, the

VAV Balancing Tool, specified network sensors, or

other SA Bus devices with RJ-12 plugs. Wire the SA

Bus port as shown in Figure 3.

Note: The SA port is connected internally to

the SA Bus terminal block.

Figure 3: Pin Number Assignments for SA Bus

Ports

4. Wire the Power Supply Terminal Block. The ATC

uses a 240 VAC, +/-10% supply power terminal

two-pin, three-position, red connector.

a. Connect the supply wires to the red plug-

in terminal block as shown in Figure 4.

b. Insert the plug-in terminal block into the

ATC. For the location of the ATC power

input, see Figure 6.

Maximum Cable Length versus Load Current

For this system to operate correctly, the maximum

wire length is 137.2 m (450 ft) and the wire cross-

sectional area is 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG) to 0.5 mm2 (22

AWG).

Input and Output wiring guidelines

Table 2 and Table 3 provide information and guidelines

about the functions, ratings, and requirements for the

controller input and output terminals, and guidelines

for determining proper wire sizes and cable lengths.

In addition to the wiring guidelines in Table 2 and Table

3, observe these guidelines when wiring controller

inputs and outputs:

• Run all low-voltage wiring and cables separate from

high-voltage wiring.

• All input and output cables, regardless of wire size

or number of wires, should consist of stranded,

insulated, and twisted copper wires.

• Shielded cable is not required for input or output

cables.

• Shielded cable is recommended for input

and output cables that are exposed to high

electromagnetic or radio frequency noise.

• Inputs/outputs with cables less than 30 m (100 ft)

typically do not require an offset in the software

setup. Cable runs over 30 m (100 ft) may require an

offset in the input/output software setup.

N/A

1 The required wire sizes and lengths for high-voltage (>30 V) Relay Outputs are determined by the load connected to the relay, and

local, national or regional electrical codes.

Maximum cable length versus load current

Use the following figure to estimate the maximum cable length relative to the wire size and the load current (in

mA) when wiring inputs and outputs.

Note: Figure 5 applies to low-voltage (<30 V)

inputs and outputs only.

Communications bus and supply power wiring guidelines

Table 4 provides information about the functions, ratings, and requirements for the communication bus and

supply power terminals. The table also provides guidelines for wire sizes, cable types, and cable lengths for wiring

the controller's communication buses and supply power.

In addition to the guidelines in Table 4, observe the following guidelines when you wire an FC or SA bus and the 24

VAC supply power:

• Run all low-voltage wiring and cables separate from high-voltage wiring.

• All FC and SA bus cables, regardless of wire size, should be twisted, insulated, stranded copper wire.

• Using shielded cable is best practice for all FC and SA bus cables.

• Refer to the MS/TP Communications Bus Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011034) for detailed information regarding wire

size and cable length requirements for FC and SA buses.
