Product Overview

The BAS Remote provides a convenient method of expanding building automation systems in the field when using Ethernet for network communication. Modern building automation systems are quickly adopting information technology standards such as Ethernet for communication and structured wiring. The BAS Remote complies with BACnet/IP as defined in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 135-2004 while providing six universal input/output points, and two relay outputs. By incorporating a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port, the BAS Remote can be connected anywhere in a building's structured wiring system at a point convenient to mechanical equipment. This eliminates the need to pull proprietary network cable to the source of the I/O. By being BACnet/IP compliant, there is no need for an external router. The BAS Remote is ideal for applications where several points of I/O must be accessed in areas void of proprietary BAS networks.

Six universal input/output points are provided on the BAS Remote. Depending upon configuration, the unit can accommodate a contact closure from a digital point, a thermistor, voltage or current analog input from a field transmitter or supervisory controller. Analog inputs can range from 0-10 VDC or 0-20 mA, accommodating 0-5 VDC, 1-5 VDC, 2-10 VDC, and 4-20 mA devices. Input point resolution is 10 bits.

Type II and III 10 KΩ thermistor curves are resident in the BAS Remote. Single-point calibration of temperature is accomplished using the unit's web server. Inputs can accept pulse trains in the range of 0 to 40 Hz (50% duty cycle) to measure flow rates.

Analog outputs can be 0-10 VDC or 0-20 mA, accommodating 2-10 V, 0-5 V, 1-5 V and 4-20 mA devices. LEDs identify the state of I/O points. Output point resolution is 12 bits.

There are two relay outputs available with both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts. The relay output rating is 30 VAC/VDC, 2A. LED indicators identify the state of the output.

All field connectors are removable making replacement of units quick and simple.

A single RJ-45 shielded connector provides the 10/100 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet connection. The unit supports auto-negotiation of data rate, duplex and pause control when using full-duplex transmission. A resident web server facilitates commissioning and troubleshooting. Configuration is accomplished via Ethernet.

Power for the BAS Remote can be derived from a 24 VAC Class 2 transformer rated at 10 VA or from a 24 VDC power supply rated at 10 W. Since the unit incorporates a half-wave rectified power supply, I/O points and the power supply can share a common ground. Therefore, the BAS Remote can be powered by the same control transformer used to power other control equipment.

The unit can be DIN-rail or panel mounted inside a control panel. If panel mounting is required, optional mounting tabs are provided with the product.

The BAS Remote conforms to the BACnet/IP standard and therefore allows field I/O to be directly accessed via Ethernet without the need of a router. A standard web browser is used for commissioning and troubleshooting. The BAS Remote adheres to the BACnet Application Specific Controller (B-ASC) profile.
