IP 连接、灵活的网络拓扑以及对 ACnet/SC 应用程序的支持

The BACnet/IP controllers are based on open protocols that simplify interoperability, IP configuration, and device management, and can be enabled as BACnet/SC nodes for increased cybersecurity:

• IP addressing

• BACnet/IP or BACnet/SC communications

• DHCP for easy network configuration

The BACnet/IP controllers have a dual-port Ethernet switch, which enables flexible network topologies:

• Star

• Daisy chain

• Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) ring

In a star topology, the controller and the parent EcoStruxure BMS server are individually connected to an Ethernet switch. Daisy-chain multiple controllers together to reduce installation time and cost. When using a ring network topology, in the event of a broken IP network or a non-operational controller, RSTP will enable rapid identification of the location of the detected error while maintaining communication with the controllers on either side of the break.

BACnet/SC (Secure Connect) 支持

The BACnet/IP controllers support BACnet/SC applications as a BACnet/SC node. This allows the controllers to be used in a BACnet/SC network, which allows secure transport of BACnet traffic and information between BACnet/SC devices over private and public networks without the need for BBMDs, VLANs, and VPNs, because the BACnet/SC protocol uses WebSocket technology and TLS 1.3 encryption. In addition, BACnet/SC uses certificate management to help ensure only those devices authorized to be on a BACnet/SC network can operate on that network.

230 VAC 控制器型号，带 16 个 I/O 点

RP-C Pro Plus 系列包括一个 RP 控制器型号 RP-C-16C-F230V，它提供一组名为 16C 的 I/O 点类型，并支持 230 VAC 电源。

可自由编程

完全可编程的 RP 控制器通过支持脚本和功能块编程选项提供了灵活性。控制器可借助标准控制器应用程序提高效率和标准化。

通用的 I/O 点组合

RP-C-16C-F-230V 提供 16 个 I/O 点，由四组不同的 I/O 点类型组成。I/O 点类型的通用组合可匹配众多 HVAC 应用类型。通用输入/输出极其灵活度，既可配置为输入也可配置为输出。

表格： I/O Point Types

1. With 24 VAC/DC power distribution
2. Configurable I/O point type that can be configured either as Universal I/O (Type Ub) or SSR output. When a configurable I/O point is configured as an Universal I/O (Type Ub), the SSR output is enabled and feeds 24 VAC/VDC power, but the SSR output can not be configured or used according to table “Configurations by I/O Point Types”.

表格： Configurations by I/O Point Types

The universal inputs/outputs are ideal for any mix of temperature, pressure, flow, status points, and similar point types in a building control system.

As counter inputs, the universal inputs/outputs are commonly used in energy metering applications. As RTD inputs, they are ideal for temperature points in a building control system. As supervised inputs, they are used for security applications where it is critical to know whether or not a wire has been cut or shorted. These events provide a separate indication of alarms and events in the system.

For all analog inputs, maximum and minimum levels can be defined to automatically detect over-range and under-range values.

The universal inputs/outputs are capable of supporting analog outputs of type voltage outputs. Therefore, the universal inputs/outputs support a wide range of devices, such as actuators.

Only devices with safe extra low voltage equipment (SELV/PELV) inputs/outputs should be connected to the universal inputs/outputs.

The solid-state relay (SSR) outputs can be used in many applications to switch 24 VAC or 24 VDC on or off for external loads such as actuators, relays, or indicators. SSRs are silent and are not adversely affected by relay contact wear.

可选择使用外部或内部电源进行配电

控制器提供了在外部电源（24 VAC/DC，8A）或内部变压器（24 VAC，19VA）之间进行选择的能力，用于将电力分配到固态继电器输出。通过将跳线放置在引脚头上，可以很容易地进行选择。

可插拔连接器

控制器配备了安装在 PCB 上的连接器，用于 230 VAC 电源输入、I/O 和外部电源的电源输入。安装在 PCB 上的连接器与可插拔连接器配合。这意味着与现场接线端块相比，安装可以节省时间并降低成本。连接器可以在现场快速方便地插在一起。可插拔连接器可以在没有应力消除和触摸保护的情况下安装。由于不需要外壳，控制器适用于改造应用和安装在吊顶或地板下空间。

无线连接

RP 控制器是启用了低功耗蓝牙 (BLE) 的产品。您可以使用此无线连接选项将运行 Commission 移动应用程序或用于房间舒适度设置的 Engage 移动应用程序的智能手机或平板电脑连接到控制器。

Through Wireless Adapter - Advanced connected to the host USB port, Zigbee ^TM wireless connectivity can be enabled for the RP controller. The controller can extend its point count through the Zigbee wireless network and bring flexibility in your applications. The RP controller equipped with the adapter is a Zigbee Certified Product that is compliant with Zigbee 3.0. For more information on the adapter and supported wireless devices, see the Wireless Adapter - Advanced Specification Sheet.

高级监控

The BACnet/IP controllers support local trends, schedules, and alarms, enabling local operation when the controller is offline or used in standalone applications.

The battery-free power backup of the memory and real-time clock helps prevent data loss and allows seamless and quick recovery after a power disruption.

In WorkStation, you update the firmware of multiple BACnet/IP controllers at the same time and with minimum down time. The EcoStruxure BMS server keeps track of the installed firmware to support backup, restore, and replacement of the controllers and sensors. The server can host controllers of different firmware versions.

三个可配置 RS-485 端口

控制器有三个可配置 RS-485 端口，可以针对支持三种不同类型的网络进行配置：

• 传感器总线

• 房间总线

更多信息，请参阅 RP 控制器扩展模块的规格表。

Modbus RTU 子网

The RP controller Modbus network allows standard Modbus devices and the KNX Modbus gateway (RP-C-EXT-KNX) to be connected to the controller.

The Modbus RTU protocol is used for the communication. The RP controller acts as the Modbus client and the connected devices act as servers.

For connection to Modbus devices, it is recommended to use the non-isolated RS-485 adapter to provide screw termination. The adapter converts an RS-485 RJ45 interface to screw terminals. The adapter can be ordered from Schneider Electric. For more information, see the RS-485 Adapters Specification Sheet.

To connect the adapter, it is recommended that you use a Cat 5 (or higher) UTP cable with eight conductors and RJ45 connectors. The cable should be rated for the target environment and have a maximum length of 0.3 m (12 in.). The cable is not included and needs to be purchased separately.

The maximum number of Modbus devices that can be connected to an RP controller depends on the type of Modbus device and the number of Modbus registers.

The RP-C Pro Plus controller Modbus network supports up to 20 connected Modbus devices with the following restrictions:

• Maximum of one KNX Modbus gateway (RP-C-EXT-KNX)

• Maximum of 1,000 Modbus registers per network

64-bit Modbus registers are supported, which can be used in energy metering.

Modbus device types are pre-configured Modbus applications for quick and easy Modbus device integration in EcoStruxure Building Operation solutions. For information on the Modbus devices supported using Modbus device types, see the document EcoStruxure Building - Modbus Device Integration - Supported Device Brochure.

支持 KNX

Through the KNX Modbus gateway (RP-C-EXT-KNX), the RP controller can communicate with KNX devices such as push-buttons and sensors.

The KNX Modbus gateway provides a KNX to Modbus interface that connects to one of the RP controller's configurable RS-485 ports.

For more information, see the RP-C-EXT-KNX Specification Sheet.

Engage 移动应用程序

The Engage mobile application enables control of room temperature, fan speed, lights, and blinds/shades directly from a smartphone. A user can manage these settings when the application is connected to the RP controller.

The Engage mobile application is free and available for download from Google Play and Apple App Store.

For more information, see the Engage Specification Sheet.

Commission 移动应用程序设计用于 BACnet/IP 控制器的本地配置、现场部署和调试。该移动应用程序可缩短调试时间，便于灵活地实施项目，最小化网络基础设施的依赖性。

The mobile application is designed for use with Android, Apple (iOS), and Microsoft Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices. For more information, see the EcoStruxure Building Commission Specification Sheet.

 

action_zoom_plus_stroke

Using the Commission mobile application, you can connect to one or many RP controllers. You can connect to a single RP controller using the controller's built-in Bluetooth connectivity or using the SpaceLogic Bluetooth Adapter connected to a SpaceLogic Sensor. Using a wireless access point or a network switch, you can connect to a network of RP controllers on the local IP network.

With the Commission mobile application, you can easily discover BACnet/IP controllers on the IP network. You can change the configuration of each controller, including the BACnet and IP network settings, location, and parent server. To save engineering time, you can save common device settings and then reuse them for controllers of the same model.

The Commission mobile application does not require an EcoStruxure BMS server or a network infrastructure to be in place. You can use the mobile application to load the controller application directly into the local BACnet/IP controller and deploy the controller. The controller application can be created offline using Project Configuration Tool or WorkStation. You can use the mobile application to change the behavior of an installed standard controller application, such as configuring temperature setpoints. You can also perform an I/O checkout to verify that the controller's I/O points are configured, wired, and operating correctly.

You can perform I/O checkout on the RP controller room bus to verify proper communication over the room bus between the RP controller and the associated RP controller expansion modules. Module type mismatches or address mismatches can then be resolved. After wiring the physical inputs and outputs of the RP controller expansion modules, you can perform the following tasks on the different modules:

• DALI light modules: discover, wink, and associate DALI lights with the logical software points, and test individual lights

• 0-10V light modules: test individual lights

• Blind modules: calibrate and test blinds

• Relay module: test outputs

全面的 EcoStruxure Building Operation 软件支持

The power of the RP controller is fully realized when it is part of an EcoStruxure BMS, which provides the following benefits:

• WorkStation/WebStation interface

• Script and Function Block programming options

• Device discovery

• Engineering efficiency

• Preconfigured BMS applications for HVAC and Connected Room Solutions

• Zoning option

WorkStation and WebStation provide a consistent user experience regardless of which EcoStruxure BMS server the user is logged on to. The user can log on to the parent EcoStruxure BMS server to engineer, commission, supervise, and monitor the BACnet/IP controller and its I/O as well as its attached SpaceLogic Sensor devices. For more information, see the WorkStation and WebStation specification sheets.

The fully programmable RP and MP controller models have both Script and Function Block programming options. Existing programs can easily be reused between the EcoStruxure BMS server and the controller.

The enhanced Device Discovery in WorkStation enables you to easily identify BACnet/IP controllers on a BACnet network and to associate the controllers with their parent server.

The engineering and maintenance of BACnet/IP controllers can be done very efficiently using the EcoStruxure Building Operation reusability features. With these features, you can create library items (Custom Types) for a complete controller application that contains programs and all necessary objects such as trends, alarms, and schedules. The controller application in the Custom Types library is reusable across all controllers of the same model. You can use the controller application as a base for creating new controllers intended for similar applications. You can then edit the controller application, and the changes are automatically replicated to all controllers, while each controller keeps its local values.

WorkStation supports both online and offline engineering of BACnet/IP controllers. You can make the configuration changes online or use database mode to make the changes offline. In database mode, the changes are saved to the EcoStruxure Building Operation database so that you can apply the changes to the controllers later.

Project Configuration Tool enables you to perform all the engineering off site, without the need for physical hardware, which minimizes the time you need to spend on site. You can run the EcoStruxure BMS servers virtually and engineer the BACnet/IP controllers before you deploy your server and controller applications to the servers and controllers on site. For more information, see the Project Configuration Tool specification sheet.

To improve engineering efficiency and standardize engineering practices, fully designed and tested controller applications are available at bms-applications.schneider-electric.com for use with the RP controllers. This library contains applications for different RP controller models and application types, such as fan coil units, ceiling solutions, lights and blinds. These preconfigured controller applications are packages that include all software programs, and for example graphics, alarms, and documentation such as functional specifications and I/O wiring schedules, that are needed for your projects. The online repository can be accessed using common web browsers on Windows PCs as well as mobile devices running Apple iOS 11.3 (or later) and Android 6.0 Marshmallow (or later).

 

action_zoom_plus_stroke

The Zoning option for WorkStation and WebStation provides access to an interactive zoning tool that enables easy reconfiguration of Connected Room Solutions and flexibility when switching between zones. The WebStation zoning tool provides a graphical interface that enables quick editing of zones from any web browser device.

The RP-C-16C-F-230V model supports up to eight segments, which can be used to support rezoning in a building.

Web 服务

The RP controller uses the RESTful API, which allows IT web services to easily interact with software applications. The flexibility of the RESTful API allows the RP controller to handle multiple types of input and return different data formats. With Web services, clients can read/write data (BACnet values) directly from/to the controller. Web services use resource methods GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE to access and use the data. HTTPS is used for communication between the client and the controller.

The Web services function is disabled by default. When enabled, it requires approximately 200 kB of RP controller memory.
