Connecting an RS-485 Power Adapter to an External Power Supply to Inject 24 VDC to an RS-485 Bus

You connect an RS-485 Power Adapter to an external 24 VDC power supply to inject 24 VDC to an RS-485 based network, such as Room Bus or Sensor Bus, and thereby extend the RS-485 bus for an RP or MP controller when more devices than the allowed limit need to be connected.

The RS-485 Power Adapter can be used for injecting 24 VDC from an external 24 VDC power supply to an RS-485 based network such as Room Bus or Sensor Bus. This is useful, for example, in applications where you want to extend the RS-485 bus by connecting (daisy-chaining) additional devices, which the RP or MP controller would otherwise not be able to power. The external power supply is connected to the bus via the adapter.

Aviso

Before use, check the required ratings for the external 24 VDC power supply. Para obtener más información, consulte RS-485 Power Adapter .

Examples

This section gives an example of how the adapter can be used to inject 24 VDC to an RS-485 bus for extension of the bus when more devices than the allowed limit need to be connected:

  • Example with Sensor Bus for an MP-V controller

Example with Sensor Bus for an MP-V controller

The following figure shows an example of how an RS-485 Power Adapter is used to inject 24 VDC from an external 24 VDC power supply to an MP-V controller Sensor Bus so that the maximum number of SpaceLogic Sensor devices with sensor bases with CO 2 option can be increased from two to four devices. Para obtener más información, consulte MP-V Sensor Bus .The adapter is typically placed after the second device on the bus where it is used to power the third and fourth devices. The adapter is connected to the Sensor Bus by means of two Cat 5 (or higher) UTP cables (not included). The isolated, non-grounded (floating) 24 VDC output from the external power supply is connected to the screw terminals marked 24 VDC and GND on the adapter.

The negative terminal (–) on the external 24 VDC power supply should not be connected to local ground. The isolated (floating) 24 VDC output from the power supply should be connected to the GND (–) and 24 VDC (+) terminals on the adapter.

Connection of RJ45 Ports to RP or MP Controller RS-485 Com Port and RS-485 Bus

Separate connection cables are required to connect the two RJ45 ports on the RS-485 Power Adapter to the RS-485 Com port (RJ45) on the RP or MP controller and to other daisy-chained devices with RJ45 interface on the RS-485 bus. The cables are not included and need to be purchased separately.

Use a Cat 5 (or higher) unshielded, straight-through wired cable with eight conductors (four twisted pairs) and RJ45 connectors. Use a cable with the wire size (cross-sectional area) 22 to 26 AWG (0.34 to 0.14 mm²), and a rating that meets the requirements of the target environment. For example, when devices are installed in a space that handles conditioned air or return air, the cables typically need to be plenum-rated.

LOSS OF COMMUNICATION

Use a Cat 5 or higher unshielded twisted pair cable with eight conductors (four twisted pairs), a cross-sectional area of 22 to 26 AWG (0.34 to 0.14 mm 2 ), and a rating that meets the requirements of the target environment.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in loss of communication.

Aviso

LOSS OF COMMUNICATION

Ensure that the total length of the RS-485 bus does not exceed the following limits:

  • Room Bus and Modbus: 72 m (236 ft)

  • Sensor Bus: 61 m (200 ft)

Failure to follow these instructions can result in loss of communication.

Wiring of Screw Terminals for Connection to External 24 VDC Power Supply

Aviso

The external power supply should have an isolated, non-grounded (floating) 24 VDC output.

Aviso

It is recommended to move the slide switch on the adapter to the EXT (External) position before connecting the external 24 VDC power supply.

The four screw terminals are wired and connected to an external 24 VDC power supply as described in the following table.

Recommended screw tightening torque: 0.5 Nm (4.5 lbf.in)

To connect an RS-485 Power Adapter to an external power supply to inject 24 VDC to an RS-485 bus

  1. Connect a Cat 5 (or higher) unshielded, straight-through wired cable with eight conductors (four twisted pairs) with RJ45 connectors to the IN PORT on the adapter.

    Use a cable with the wire size (cross-sectional area) 22 to 26 AWG (0.34 to 0.14 mm²) and a rating that meets the requirements of the target environment, for example, plenum space.

    Aviso

    The cable is not included.

  2. Connect the other end of the cable to the RJ45 port of the previous device on the RS-485 bus (daisy-chain).

    Aviso

    The RS-485 bus originates from an RP controller RS-485 Com A or Com B port or an MP-V controller Com A port. Select the RS-485 Com port that is configured for the type of RS-485 based network you want to use the adapter for. Para obtener más información, consulte Allocating Flexible Ports .

  3. Connect a cable, with the same characteristics as specified in step 1, to the OUT PORT on the adapter.

  4. Connect the other end of the cable to the RJ45 port of the next device on the RS-485 bus (daisy-chain).

  5. Ensure that the total length of the RS-485 bus does not exceed the following limits:

    • Room Bus and Modbus: 72 m (236 ft)

    • Sensor Bus: 61 m (200 ft)

You can now install the RS-485 Power Adapter, move the switch to the EXT position, and then wire the screw terminals on the adapter to connect the external 24 VDC power supply.
