RP-C Models
The RP-C controller is available in seven models that support both BACnet/IP and MS/TP communication. These seven models offer six different combinations (sets) of I/O point types and CPU types. Four of the models support 24 VAC/VDC input power and three of them support 230 VAC. One of the 230 V models has self-locking device connectors instead of screw terminals. The RP-C controller also comes in three models that only support BACnet MS/TP communication. These three models offer three different sets of the number of I/O points and types of I/O points and support 24 VAC/VDC input power.

All RP-C models have the same small footprint, except for RP-C-16C-F-230V which has the same height and depth as the other models but is significantly wider. RP-C-16C-F-230V differs from the other RP-C models also with regards to connectors, number of communications ports, configurable I/O point types, and other features.
The EasyLogic RP-C models differ significantly from the SpaceLogic RP-C models not only in terms of the supported BACnet communication protocol, but also with regards to the set of communication ports and several other features.
The EasyLogic models have an “-M” in the product name.

- Either the RS-485 Com A port (Sensor Bus) or RS-485 Com B port (Room Bus) can be reconfigured for Modbus.
- Status LED.
- Only RP-C-16A-M-24V has a real-time clock.
- RP-C-12A-M-24V and RP-C-12B-M-24V with hardware version earlier than 01 and RP-C-16A-M-24V with hardware version earlier than 03 have a FRAM memory with a size of 8 kB. For these hardware versions, the use of Script programs is recommended to save FRAM memory space.
Differences Between RP-C Hardware Versions
There are a number of differences in hardware between different hardware versions of the RP-C-12A-F-24V, RP-C-12B-F-24V, RP-C-12C-F-24V, and RP-C-16A-F-230V controller models.
