1Introduction

The E2 controller is a microprocessor-based control system designed to provide complete control of compres­sor groups, condensers, refrigerated cases, and other com­ponents related to refrigeration and building control. The E2 is the controlling component of a three-network config­uration (RS485 I/O, Echelon Ethernet) that includes input and output communication boards, remote communication software, and a variety of sensors, probes, and transducers.
The E2 efficiently operates all systems that support refrigeration (including compressor racks and condensers) and other components not directly related to refrigeration control, such as HVAC systems, anti-sweat heaters, and sensor control modules.

1.1 The E2 Refrigeration Controller

The E2 RX is available in three models: the RX-300, RX-400, and RX-100. The E2 RX-300 is capable of con­trolling a single refrigeration system (including one con­denser and up to four suction groups). The E2 RX-400 is capable of controlling two separate refrigeration systems (including two condensers and up to four suction groups). The RX-100 is a low-cost alternative to the RX-300 with fewer capabilities and a monochrome display.
The E2 RX is primarily designed to control tempera­ture and defrost in refrigerated cases using either direct control (connected to the E2 via I/O boards or ESR8 lineup control boards) or by using CC-100 case control boards (connected via the LonWorks Network).

1.3 The E2 Convenience Store Controller

The CX controls HVAC, lighting, and refrigeration systems for convenience store and small-box retail facili­ties. The CX’s primary function is to provide energy-effi­cient control of rooftop units as well as refrigeration and defrost control of display cases and walk-in boxes. In addition, the CX provides extensive sensor control, log­ging, and graphing features that allow the user to view accurate real-time information about system conditions. The CX is equipped with many power monitoring and demand control features that give you the information you need to keep your site’s energy consumption low.
The E2 CX is available in three models: the CX-300, CX-400, and CX-100. The only significant difference between the E2 CX-300 and the E2 CX-400 is the amount of C-Store equipment that may be operated by a single controller. The CX-100 is a low-cost alternative to the CX­300 with fewer capabilities and a monochrome display. Table 1-3 shows the differences between capabilities for the CX-300 and CX-400.

1.4 Networking Overview

1.4.1 E2 I/O Network

Most of the general purpose input and output commu-
nications devices required by the E2 to control refrigera­tion systems are connected to the E2 via the I/O Network. The I/O Network is a simple RS485 three-wire connection that allows data interchange between input boards (which read sensor values and digital closures), output boards (which carry out commands from E2’s control applica­tions), and the E2 itself.
The I/O Network is the same thing as the COM A and COM D Networks found on Retail Solutions’ previous generation of controllers, REFLECS. This allows current owners of Retail Solutions’ Refrigeration Monitor and Control (RMC) or Refrigeration Monitor and Case Control (RMCC) controllers to easily retrofit with an E2 RX with­out need for re-wiring.

2 Hardware Overview

This section gives an overview of the E2, the hard­ware, and how it communicates across the I/O and Eche­lon Networks to control an entire system.

2.1 E2 Hardware

The E2 controller is programmed to monitor and com­mand all aspects of a refrigeration or building environ­mental control system. The E2 uses both an RS485 I/O Network and a LonWorks Network to gather data from input devices, communicate with other E2s, and activate or deactivate loads.
In general, an E2 control network will consist of the following components:
1. E2 - The “brain” of the control network, which performs all necessary computations and sends commands to the output devices that control the system.
2. Input Boards - Transfer readings to the E2.
3. Output Boards - Banks of relays, digital pulse outputs, or analog outputs, which the E2 may use to control loads.
4. Smart Boards - Boards such as case controllers (for refrigeration) or rooftop controllers (for building control) that perform control functions for an individual case or rooftop unit, and send the data to the E2 for logging and alarm purposes.
5. Modem - For remote communication via phone, if necessary .
6. Network Wiring - Wiring that connects the E2 to other E2s, and all the input, output, and smart boards.
7. Sensors and Loads - The “eyes” and “hands” of the control network. Sensors “see” what needs to be controlled on the network, and Loads are what can be controlled, or more specifically, be turned on and off, such as compressors, condensers, lights, and fans.

Figure 2-6 - Gateway Board
The Gateway board is an RS485 to RS485 converter. One side of the Gateway is always connected to the Retail Solutions I/O Network. The other side of the Gateway is the receiver bus (RS485). The receiver bus is connected to one or more RS485 devices depending on which type of Gateway is being used. The Gateway interfaces devices to the Einstein/E2 and legacy Retail Solutions controller (REFLECS) by simulating 16AI and 8RO boards using Retail Solutions standard I/O board protocol. The Gate­way can also convert third-party controller protocols to Retail Solutions protocol for custom cells created in the Einstein/E2 to interface with third-party controllers (Dan­foss, Woodley , etc.).
The Gateway performs one of two basic functions:
1. It allows control of and/or status of a device using I/O board simulation
2. Converts a third-party protocol to Retail Solu­tions I/O Net protocol and interfaces to a custom cell in Einstein/E2

2.2.2 MultiFlex Boards

The MultiFlex line of control system boards provides a wide variety of input, output, and smart control solutions, all of which are based on a single universal hardware plat­form. The board design uses flash-uploadable firmware and plug-in expansion boards to configure the base plat­form board and apply it for use as an input board, relay output board, analog output board, or a combination I/O board.
2.2.2.1 MultiFlex 16 Input Board
Figure 2-7 - MultiFlex 16 Input Board
The MultiFlex 16 input board offers sixteen combina­tion analog/digital input points for use by Retail Solutions E2, Einstein, and REFLECS control systems. The Multi­Flex 16 may be used in retrofits with no additional hard­ware or software setup or upgrades.
The MultiFlex 16 is designed to be 100% compatible with the previous generation of Retail Solutions input
boards (the 16AI), via an RS485 connection to a REFLECS COM A&D Net­work or an E2 I/O Network. Dip switches on the board set the network ID (board number) and baud rate.
The board also provides both +5VDC and +12VDC output voltage points for use in powering transducers or other input devices that require power.
The MultiFlex 16 has a Hand-held Terminal interface Section 2.2.4, Hand-held Terminal (P/N 814-3110) that may be used by technicians to view the input voltage and engineering unit values for each input point without need of a voltmeter or front panel controller display.
Table 2-6 sh ows the part number of the MultiFlex 16.

The MultiFlex 16 is designed with several features that
make it easy to install, wire, and configure. These main user interface features are shown in Figure 2-7.
The MultiFlex combination I/O boards consist of up to 16 combination digital/analog inputs, and a combina­tion of relay outputs, digital outputs, and analog outputs.

- MultiFlex Combination Input/Output Board (Side
All boards feature both +5VDC and +12VDC output voltage points for use in powering transducers or other input devices that require power.
On the RS485 Network, the MultiFlex combination input/output boards present themselves to Einstein, E2, or REFLECS site controllers as 16AI Analog Input Boards, 8RO Relay Output Boards, 8DO Digital Output Boards, and/or 4AO Analog Output Boards, depending on what type of inputs or outputs are equipped. Dip switches are used to assign network ID numbers to each board type.
The MultiFlex combination input/output boards also support a Hand-held Terminal interface, Section 2.2.4, Hand-held Te rmi nal (P/N 814-3110) which allows techni­cians to view input values, check relay and analog output states, and override output points with fixed digital or ana­log values. For more information on MultiFlex I/O boards, refer to the MultiFlex I/O Board Installation and Opera- tion Manual (P/N 026-1704).

2.2.2.3 MultiFlex CUB
The MultiFlex Condensing Unit Board (CUB) is a “smart” input/output board designed to control single con­densing units. A single condensing unit is a self-contained compressor and condenser bearing unit which controls refrigeration in a single case line-up or walk-in cooler.
The MultiFlex CUB uses the same general hardware configuration as a MultiFlex 168AO. It is equipped with a processor and extra memory to allow it to control com­pressors, condensers, refrigeration, and defrost for a single condensing unit using on-board I/O and control algo­rithms.
The MultiFlex CUB has its own installation and opera-
tion manual, (P/N 026-1706).
2.2.2.4 MultiFlex RTU (BX and CX Only)
Similar in design to the MultiFlex combination input / output boards, the MultiFlex RTU board is designed spe­cifically for operating package rooftop HVAC units as part of an E2 BX or REFLECS BCU building control system. The MultiFlex RTU is designed to be a replacement for the previous generation ARTC, and is 100% compatible with all legacy E2 BX and BCU systems.
The MultiFlex RTU board has 16 analog inputs, 8 relay outputs and 4 analog outputs. Most of these I/O points are reserved for sensors and input devices required to read environmental data (such as space and supply air temperature) and control all output devices that control the environment (such as heat/cool stages and dampers). The RTU relay outputs are rated for line voltage (240VAC).
The RTU board controls the rooftop unit directly with its built-in heating, cooling, and humidity control algo­rithms. It may operate in stand-alone mode, or it may interface with an E2 BX or BCU to control the store envi­ronment in zones and pass along logging and alarm infor­mation.
The MultiFlex RTU has its own installation and opera-
tion manual, (P/N 026-1705).
2.2.2.5 MultiFlex Rooftop Control Board (RCB) (BX and CX Only)
The MultiFlex Rooftop Control Board (RCB) (P/N 810-3062) is a rooftop HVAC control board for use either as a stand-alone controller or in zone control appli­cations using a Retail Solutions E2 BX building control system. The MultiFlex RCB is capable of controlling heat and cool stages, fans, humidification and dehumidification devices, economizers using on-board I/O and control algo­rithms, as well as monitor and interact with other building control systems and peripherals (such as smoke alarms and CO2 sensors).
The RCB is an improved version of the MultiFlex RTU. The RCB has sixteen fully configurable analog and digital input points, whereas the RTU has only eight inputs, two of which are configurable. The RCB has four analog outputs for use in controlling variable speed fans, economizers or modulating heating and/or cooling valves, whereas the RTU has only two analog outputs for use only with VS fans and economizers. The RCB also features a more sophisticated HHT interface and updated algorithms for controlling heating, cooling, dehumidification, and air quality.
The MultiFlex RCB has its own installation and opera­tion manual, (P/N 026-1707).

containing up to 8 total condenser fans. The PAK con­denser control strategy is sequential TD control with set­point/deadband using ON and OFF delays.
The PAK has a compressor/condenser interlock fea­ture that will override TD control and force the condenser fans to stage off using the TD control OFF delay when all compressors are off. This feature can be disabled with an Enable/Disable setpoint or when the discharge pressure is above a configurable setpoint.
The MultiFlex PAK boards consist of two circuit boards: a bottom layer with 16 combination digital/analog inputs, and a plug-in top layer which contains a combina­tion of 8 relay outputs and 4 digital DC voltage outputs.
The analog outputs on the Multiflex PAK drive solid state relays to control the fan stages. The relays control the compressor groups.
The communication interface is RS485 I/O using the Standard Extended Address Form for Retail Solutions Dis­tributed Controllers. Currently, the PAK is designed to interface with the Retail Solutions E2 controller.

2.2.3 The MultiFlex ESR Board

The MultiFlex ESR Valve Regulator board (P/N 810-
3199), shown in Figure 2-1, is an RS485 I/O Network
electronic stepper valve regulator capable of driving up to eight stepper motor valves, which are typically used to control temperature.
Figure 2-1 - MultiFlex ESR Board Layout
The MultiFlex ESR uses suction side variable-position evaporator regulators (ESRs) to vary evaporator pressure for an entire circuit and is an alternative to mechanical EPR control.
The MultiFlex ESR receives input data from a Retail Solutions E2 controller (via the I/O Network) and then regulates the stepper valves according to the data from the

with any refrigeration system or environmental control component.
The 8RO board is the direct link between the E2 and component operation. Information gathered by the con­troller from the input boards is checked against current stored setpoints. If differences in the received input data and the setpoint information are detected, a signal is either sent to the proper 8RO relay, or an existing signal is dis­continued. Through the use of this relay signal, control functions that can be properly maintained by a simple con­tact closure sequence are effectively operated by the E2.
The 8RO board is easily installed and operated within the Retail Solutions Network environment because of its straightforward design. Several of these features are shown in Figure 2-11.
Figure 2-10

2.2.5 The 8RO and 8ROSMT Relay Boards

The 8RO (P/N 810-3005) board is a general-purpose board used to connect an E2 to any of eight standard con­trol relay outputs, but is now obsolete and has been replaced by the 8ROSMT (P/N 810-3006) board.
T o function, the 8RO board must be connected through either the Echelon Network or the RS485 I/O Network to the E2. When properly installed, the 8RO receives an elec­trical impulse from the E2, which either opens or closes any of eight contact relays. Output definitions within the E2 allow the user to configure the 8RO board to interact

tions that provide a variable voltage signal to any of four analog devices that may be controlled by a single E2. T wo 4-20mA outputs are provided for channels 1 and 2. The 4-20mA outputs provide a variable current for applications that are either externally powered or that require power from the 4AO board.

2.2.7 8DO Digital Output Board and PMAC II Anti-Sweat Controller

For control of anti-sweat heaters, Retail Solutions sup­plies the 8DO Digital Output board (P/N 810-3050). The 8DO has eight outputs which may pulse up to 150mA at 12VDC.
Since the 8DO is primarily designed to control anti­sweat heaters, the 8DO is the heart of Retail Solutions’ Pulse Modulated Anti-Sweat Control (PMAC II) panel. The PMAC II (P/N 851-1000) provides 16 channels of anti-sweat control circuitry. The PMAC II panel combines the 8DO with high-capacity relays in a single enclosure, providing 256 total amps of anti-sweat heater operation.
The 8DO is shown in Figure 2-15. The PMAC II is shown in Figure 2-16.

board similar in function to its I/O Network counterpart, the 8RO. The 8ROe board is the direct link between the E2 and component operation. Information gathered by the controller from the input boards is checked against current stored setpoints. If differences in the received input data and the setpoint information are detected, a signal is either sent to the proper 8ROe relay, or an existing signal is dis­continued. Through the use of this relay signal, control functions that can be properly maintained by a simple con­tact closure sequence are effectively operated by the E2.
The 8ROe features Form C contacts for wiring outputs as either normally open or normally closed. Fail-safe dip switches on the 8ROe allow the installation technician to specify the desired state of each relay in case of communi­cations loss.
This board has been discontinued and is no longer available for sale.

Figure 2-18 - 8ROe
The 8ROe (P/N 810-4010) is an Echelon-based input
Figure 2-19 - EC-2
The EC-2 is an advanced refrigerated case controller that doubles as a temperature and case status indicator. During refrigeration and defrost, the EC-2 controls most typical case functions, including fans, defrost, and a pulse valve on the liquid side of the evaporator to regulate super­heat.
The EC-2 29x version controls the refrigeration sole­noid valve to allow the passage of refrigerant to the TXV valve. The EC-2 39x version controls a pulse valve on the liquid side of the evaporator to regulate Superheat control.
The EC-2 relies on a parent E2 to handle logging, alarm control, defrost scheduling, and other case control functions.
The EC-2 is designed to be mounted on the front of a refrigerated case. The LED display shows the current case temperature with one-tenths of a degree's accuracy. The display can also show alarm codes to immediately notify
Echelon Network Boards and Peripherals Hardware Overview2-11
floor managers of alarms and notices. Other lights on the display show the ON/OFF status of refrigeration, defrost, and fans.
The EC-2 can be easily programmed using either the four front-panel buttons or an optional infrared remote control. For security, the buttons can be disabled to pre­vent tampering.
NOTE: There are several variations of the EC-2. Contact Retail Solutions at 1-800-829­2724 for more information.

2.3.4 CC-100 Case Controllers and CS-100 Case Circuit Controllers

A CC-100 case control board is a “smart” board capa­ble of controlling all functions for a single case, including lights, fans, defrost, anti-sweat, and suction side or liquid side valve control. CC-100s perform these functions inde­pendently from the E2 RX controllers, but it does rely on a parent E2 for logging, alarming, providing supplemental I/ O values, and coordinating defrost times among circuits.
There are four different models of the CC-100, each of which controls a different type of valve.
1. CC-100P (P/N 810-3160)— Case controller for
liquid-side pulse valves (also called electronic expansion valves, or EEVs). This model is capa­ble of controlling up to two pulse valves simulta­neously (for use in dual-evaporator applications such as walk-in boxes).
2. CC-100LS (P/N 810-3170) — Case controller for
liquid-side stepper valves (EEVs).
3. CS-100 (P/N 810-3177) — Case circuit controller
for suction-side stepper valves (also called elec­tronic evaporator pressure regulators, or EEPRs).
4. CC-100H (P/N 810-3171)— A special version of
the CC-100 that is used by a particular manufac­turer . Thi s board controls temperature in a case using suction-side stepper valves that regulate pressure in the evaporator.
The CC-100/CS-100 board is shown in Figure 2-20.
Figure 2-20 - Case Controller (CC-100P shown)

2.3.5 The ESR8 (Discontinued)

The ESR8 electronic suction regulator (P/N 810-3195) is an Echelon Network-based control board that controls up to eight separate electronic suction regulator (ESR) stepper valves. The ESR8 uses suction-side variable posi­tion ESRs to vary evaporator pressure and control temper­ature for an entire circuit. The ESR8 offers an economical, more efficient alternative to TXV control.
The board can be used with either Emerson Flow Con­trols ESR12 or ESR20 valves as well as a number of com­mercially available ESR stepper valves. Note that Emerson Flow Controls supplies both a 24 Volt and a 12 Volt version of the valve. The ESR board is only compati- ble with the 12 Volt version of the valve.
The board features two LEDs for each valve which indicate movement and direction. A status LED indicates the general status of the board.
The ESR8 board is shown in Figure 2-21.

2.3.6 TD3 Temperature Display

The TD3 is a digital display unit designed to show both case temperature and product temperature for a refriger­ated store case or walk-in freezer. The TD3 mounts on the front of a case and connects to up to three input devices (a case temperature sensor, a pr oduct temperature probe, and either a defrost termination probe or thermostat). The real­time input values of these probes can be viewed on the TD3’ s di gital display by pressing the function butto n on the front panel to cycle through the temperatures.
The TD3 is connected to a central E2 RX controller via the Echelon Network. Input values are sent to the E2 from the TD3 for use in case circuit control.
A diagram of the TD3 layout is shown in Figure 2-22.
Figure 2-22 - TD3 Temperature Display Layout
Figure 2-23 - Facility Status Display
The FSD reports alarm information and more, (such as temperatures, occupancy, case status, and setpoints) and provides a centralized device for store personnel to review information by communicating with the E2 via Ethernet connectivity (minimum E2 firmware rev. 2.68F01).
The FSD has a touch screen color display for quick navigation and can be mounted in a separate, remote loca­tion from the E2 controller, which enables alarms and other relevant store information to be viewed from where it is most convenient for the user.
The FSD can be configured to filter out notices and/or return-to-normal alarms, and provides a quick review of all advisories and detailed advisory information. The FSD also receives alerts and provides annunciated alarms and alarm information directly to store and department manag­ers. This compact unit can be installed virtually anywhere with a standard Ethernet connection and 120V power source.
If more than one E2 controller is at a site, one E2 must be set up as the alarm annunciator for that site. The FSD will receive alarms from that alarm-annunciator E2 for the entire site. The FSD will point only to a single E2 at a site (it will not poll multiple controllers for alarms).
For more information, refer to the FSD Manual (P/N 026-1400).

This section gives mounting instructions and dimen-
sions for all controllers and peripherals in the E2 system.

3.1 Mounting the E2

The E2’s box body style is designed to be mounted against or inside a wall or panel. If mounted against a sur­face, the controller will be 3.75” off the mounting surface. If mounted inside a surface, the door and front section of the back panel will rest 2.0” off the mounting surface. See Figure 3-1, and Figure 3-2.

3.1.1 Standard Mount

The standard mount is meant for the controller to be mounted against a wall using the four mounting holes at the rear of the enclosure shown in Figure 3-3. These holes are accessible without any removal of boards inside the enclosure.

3.1.2 Recessed Mount

The recessed mount is meant for the controller to be bolted against a surface using the eight mounting holes. The unit may be mounted with the recessed back portion of the unit inside the wall, and the front portion of the unit visible through the hole in the wall (Figure 3-1 and Fig- ure 3-4).
For a recessed mount, you will need to cut a rectangu­lar hole into the mounting surface 9.0” wide by 10.5” high (22.86 cm wide by 26.67 cm high). Once this hole is cut, mount the unit as desired using the eight outer mounting holes shown in Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-4.

3.1.3 Retrofit Mounting

The retrofit mounting plate and bracket allow the E2 to be mounted where previous generation controllers (Ein­stein or REFLECS) were. These two options allow con­version of the flush-mounted Einstein and the side­mounted REFLECS.
Figure 3-5 shows the low-profile conversion mount plate that allows a flush-mounted Einstein to be converted to a low-profile mount. The plate slides over the back of the E2 and is attached using the four holes pictured closest
Figure 3-5 - Conversion Plate for Flush Mount
Figure 3-6 - Conversion Bracket for REFLECS Side Mount
Figure 3-6 shows the conversion bracket that allows a
side-mounted REFLECS to be converted to a side­mounted E2. The conversion bracket is attached to the back of the E2 using the two holes at the top and bottom of the bracket, and aligning the oval openings with the oval cut-outs in the back of the E2 case. Once the E2 is attached to the conversion bracket, use the two holes in either side of the conversion bracket (depending on which side is needed) to mount the E2 to the wall and replace the REFLECS controller.

3.1.4 Blank Face

Blank face control is designed to be used in a system with more than one E2. It has no screen or keyboard and is logged into remotely from another E2 on the Echelon net­work. The green General Status LED transmits status information to the user. See Table 2-3 on page 2-3 for more information on main board (CPU) status LEDs. Blank face mounting dimensions are identical to the stan­dard and recessed mount boxes. See Figure 3-3 and Fig- ure 3-4.

3.2 Mounting I/O Boards

The 16AI, 8RO, 8DO, 4AO, 8IO, and MultiFlex boards are usually installed by the refrigeration or building equipment manufacturer. Therefore, the installe r need only make the necessary connections between the E2 and the cases, condenser boards, and/or HVAC units.
In some instances, an installer may be required to mount an I/O board. There are no restrictions on the loca­tion of these boards; however, for ease of network config­uration, it is recommended that the boards be located adjacent to the E2. I/O boards may be mounted without an enclosure, but they should be mounted in a location that is not easily accessible to avoid tampering or damage.

3.4.2 Two-Channel and Four­Channel Repeaters
3.4.2.1 Mounting Repeaters Overview
Repeaters are used to extend the maximum length of a segment of Echelon cable, or to act as a bridge between two devices that are farther apart than the cable’s maxi­mum node-to-node distance. Retail Solutions offers two versions of repeaters for the E2 controller: an external two-way repeater that comes in an enclosure (P/N 832-
1010), and a four-channel repeater mounted in the E2 (P/N 832-4830).
For more information about installing repeaters and routers, please refer to the Repeater and Router Installa- tion and Networking Guide (P/N 026-1605).
3.4.2.2 Mounting the Two-Channel Repeater
The external repeater (P/N 832-1010) is externally mounted within its own enclosure.

expansion card and four-channel repeater card share the same mounting platform, they must be used separately.
Figure 3-19
For external repeaters, the mounting bracket at the bot­tom of the enclosure has two 0.156” bolt holes on either side. Use the bolt holes to mount these repeaters in the field as necessary (see Figure 3-19).
When mounting external repeaters, keep in mind that they require a 24VAC Class 2 power source in order to operate. This will likely require a transformer such as P/N 640-0041 (110V) or P/N 640-0042 (220V) to be mounted near the external repeater enclosure. Make sure there will be enough space next to the repeater to mount the trans­former.
- External Repeater Mounting
3.4.2.3 Mounting the Four-Channel Repeater
The four-channel repeater (P/N 832-4830) serves the same basic function as the two-channel repeater: boosting signal strength. However, the four-channel repeater is also useful as a means of connecting the E2 to its associated devices using more than one daisy chain.
With a four-channel repeater mounted in the E2, you can run as many as three daisy chain segments out into the field, each of which can be as long as the prescribed Eche­lon maximum wire length. The fourth channel of th e repeater can be used to connect other E2s in a separate daisy-chain, eliminating the need to run cable from the field back to the next E2.
The standoffs and mounting holes are located above the PIB in the back of the enclosure box. Use the mounting screws and standoffs to secure the four-channel repeater in place, and connect the repeater to the PIB with the two-pin power connector located next to the battery.

3.5 Sensors and Transduc­ers

3.5.1 Pressure Transducers

Retail Solutions transducers convert pressure readings to proportional electrical signals between 0.5 and 4.5 volts. The transducer is designed with a 1/8-inch male FPT fitting for connection to a standard access fitting. If the fit­ting is configured with a Schrader valve, this fitting will have to be removed and replaced with a 1/8-inch female fitting. Each pressure transducer is supplied with 20 feet of cable for connection to a 16AI input board.
3.5.1.1 Mounting
The pressure transducers should be mounted in a verti­cal position (pressure port down) above crank case oil level to prevent drainage of oil into transducer port.

3.5.2 Inside Temperature Sensor

3.5.2.1 Location
Inside temperature sensors are supplied within a wall­mounted enclosure for attachment to a standard switch plate.
The temperature sensor should be located in a central location—within the zone to be measured—away from doors, windows, vents, heaters, and outside walls that could affect temperature readings. In addition, the sensor

Sensors and Transducers Mounting3-7

should not be mounted above other sensors that generate heat during operation (such as relative humidity sensors).
The indoor temperature sensor should be between four
and six feet from the floor.
3.5.2.2 Mounting

Figure 3-21
- Inside Temperature Sensor Mounting
3.5.3 Outside Temperature Sen­sor
3.5.3.1 Location
The outside or ambient temperature sensor should be located on the north side of the building, preferably under an eave to prevent sun-heated air from affecting the tem­perature of the sensor.
3.5.3.2 Mounting
The temperature sensor may be mounted using any standard tubing clamp. Retail Solutions also offers an alu­minum cover and clamp (P/N 303-1111) which may be mounted as shown in Figure 3-22 (fasteners are not pro­vided).
3.5.4.2 Mounting
The insertion probe may be mounted in any orientation within the duct as long as the probe is in the air flow of the duct. The probe housing should be secured using self-tap­ping screws. A 0.250” diameter hole is required for the probe. Figure 3-23 shows the installation of the insertion probe (self-tapping screws are not provided).
Figure 3-23 - 12-Inch Insertion Probe Mounting
3.5.5 Supply and Return Air Sen­sors
In addition to the 12-inch insertion temperature probe, Retail Solutions uses the same temperature sensor used for
3-8E2 RX/BX/CX I&O Manual 026-1610 Rev 13 14-SEP-2011
outside and inside temperature to monitor supply and return air temperature. When used in this application, the sensors are supplied without enclosure covers. The sensors should be mounted directly in the air stream of the supply or return air duct. The sensors are not supplied with any mounting hardware for this application.
3.5.6 Refrigeration System Tem­perature Probes and Sensors
3.5.6.1 Location
Retail Solutions supplies several temperature monitor­ing devices including bullet sensors, pipe mount sensors, immersion probes, insertion probes, and sensors for high temperature applications. Each of these sensors is gener­ally installed on the system by the equipment manufac­turer. If a device must be added to the system, refer to the information supplied with the device and consult the refrigeration equipment manufacturer. Table 3-1 lists some typical sensor applications and the sensor or probe most suited for that purpose.
Application Sensor Type
Condenser Outlet (Drop Leg) High Temperature Bullet Liquid (Manifold) Pipe Mount Suction Temperature Pipe Mount Discharge Air Bullet Ambient Temperature (Outside) Bullet Condenser Sump Insertion Probe Defrost Termination Bullet
Table 3-1 - Sensor Application and Type
3.5.6.2 Mounting Bullet and Pipe Mount Sensors
Bullet or pipe mount sensors mounted on refrigerant lines should be secured with a Panduit low temperature cable tie, number PLT2 S-M120, or equivalent. For pipe mount sensors, the curved surface should be placed against the pipe and the tie should be positioned in the groove on the top surface of the sensor. A second tie should be used to secure the lead to the pipe for additional support.
Sensors located on refrigerant lines should be insulated to eliminate the influence of the surrounding air. A self­adhering insulation that will not absorb moisture is recom­mended to prevent ice logging at the sensor location.
The sensor should be positioned on the side of the line as shown in Figure 3-24.
Figure 3-24 - Sensor Orientation

3.5.7 Product Temperature Probes

The product temperature probe is designed to be used alongside food products in a refrigeration case or freezer. The product probe uses a thermistor type temperature sen­sor in a sealed, cylindrical container (approximately 16 oz.). A magnet is contained at the bottom the probe’s enclosure to allow easy attachment to a side or bottom of a refrigeration case.

3.5.8 Humidity Sensors and Humidistats

3.5.8.1 Indoor RH Sensor
The indoor relative humidity sensor should be mounted in a central location within the zone to be mea­sured, away from doors, windows, vents, heaters, and out­side walls that could affect temperature readings. The sensor should be between four and six feet from the floor. Note that this sensor generates a small amount of heat; therefore, do not mount temperature sensors directly above RH sensors.
Mount RH sensor (P/N 203-5751) as follows:
1. With a flat-head screwdriver, push down the middle tab on the top of the sensor case and pop the lid off to expose the circuit board.
2. Insert the flat-head screwdriver into the two slots on either side of the top of the sensor case and twist to separate the back plate from the case.
3. Remove the knock-outs from the back plate before mounting so wires may be threaded through.
Sensors and Transducers Mounting3-9
4. Mount the back plate to the wall using the two open mounting holes on the top and bot­tom of the plate.
5. Replace the cover on top of the back plate by lining up the tabs, and snap the lid back into place.

3.5.8.2 Outdoor RH Sensors

The outdoor RH sensor (P/N 203-5761)

The outdoor RH sensor (P/N 203-5761) should always be mounted on the north side of the building if in the Northern Hemisphere, or on the south side if in the South­ern Hemisphere. The sensor should be mounted under an overhang or otherwise out of direct sunlight (if possible).
Mount the RH sensor (P/N 203-5761) as follows:
1. Secure the rear side of the enclosure to the out­side wall using the two mounting brackets, as shown in Figure 3-26. The tube holding the sen­sor element should point straight down.
2. If you will be running the sensor cable through the wall behind the sensor, cut or drill a hole in the wall through the hole in the enclosure.
1. Cut a small circular hole in the duct large enough for the sensor tube to fit through.
2. Bolt the sensor enclosure against the outside of the duct wall so that the sensor element fits through the hole and into the duct. The enclosure may be mounted horizontally, as shown in Fig- ure 3-27 or vertically. The screws should be tight enough for the foam gasket around the bottom of the sensor to form an airtight seal between the hole in the duct wall and the outside air.

4.1.4 Power Interface Board

4.2 Powering the E2

Starting at the lower right side of the PIB, the first plug is the 24VAC input. This must terminate into the power supply transformer.
E2 requires 24VAC Class 2 power, which is supplied by a non-center-tapped Class 2 transformer.
Retail Solutions supplies two transformers that may be used to power E2s: one for use with 110VAC (P/N 640-
0041), and one for use with 220VAC (P/N 640-0042). Both transformers are rated at 50VA, and each will power one E2 unit.

4.2.1 RS485 Ports

On the lower left side of the PIB are two RS485 Net­work connector ports. This is where all I/O boards (except the case controllers, TD3, ESR8, and Echelon I/O boards) are connected.

4.2.2 RS485 Jumpers

There is one set of RS485 jumpers for each RS485 port. Jumpers JP1-3 are located directly above the first connector port, and jumpers JP4-6 are located directly above the second connector port. The RS485 termination jumpers (JP1, JP2, JP3, JP4, JP5, and JP6) are used to ter­minate the devices at the beginning and end of an RS485 Network. If the E2 is the beginning of all RS485 I/O Networks, all three of these jumpers should be set to the UP position.
Figure 4-4 - Power Interface Board
The PIB interfaces the power and most all communica­tions with the main board, and contains all field wiring connections.

4.2.3 Echelon Network Connect

The next connector is the Echelon Network plug. The one connector handles both input and output connections. The input and output cables are connected directly to the Echelon plug. This plug is the connection to the Case Con­troller (CC-100), the Evaporator Stepper Regulator board (ESR8), TD3s, and other E2s.

4.2.4 Echelon Jumpers

The two Echelon jumpers (JP7 and JP8) are located next to the Echelon Network port.
Additional information about Echelon Networking and terminating the network can be found in Section 8.3, Ech- elon Network Structuring (Daisy-Chains).
4-2E2 RX/BX/CX I&O Manual 026-1610 Rev 13 14-SEP-2011

4.3 Add-On E2 Peripherals

The E2 has many plug-in card options to choose from:
• Plug-in Echelon card with mounting screw
• RS485 Modem/communication expansion card
• Plug-in digital I/O Network card
• RS485 port card
• Plug-in Four-Channel Internal Repeater
• Plug-in modem with mounting screws and stand­offs (previous generation processor board only)

4.3.1 Echelon Card Plug-In (P/N 537-4860) with mounting screw (P/N 101-4201)

Echelon is a two-conductor network that interconnects E2s and other associated devices. All Echelon devices are wired together using the daisy-chain method of network structuring. For the E2 to communicate on the Echelon Network, the plug-in card must be connected. No Echelon Network communication can occur without the card.
The plug-in Echelon card connects to the main proces­sor board on the far right side of the board just above the Power Interface Board (PIB) connector. The connector for the plug-in Echelon card is labeled Echelon Plug-In so it is easy to find.

4.3.6 Plug-In Four-Channel Inter­nal Repeater
The four-channel repeater (P/N 832-4830) boosts sig­nal strength on Echelon Networks. However, the four­channel repeater is also useful as a means of connecting the E2 to its associated devices using more than one daisy chain.
With a four-channel repeater mounted in the E2, you can run as many as three daisy chain segments out into the field, each of which can be as long as the prescribed Eche­lon maximum wire length. The fourth channel of the repeater can be used to connect other E2s in a separate daisy-chain, eliminating the need to run cable from the field back to the next E2.
The plug-in Four Channel Internal Repeater card con­nects above the power interface board on the case mounts using standoffs and screws.
See Section 3.4.2.3, Mounting the Four-Channel Repeater for more information.

4.4 Battery Testing and Replacement

WARNING: Fire, explosion, and severe burn hazard. Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 212°F (100°C) incinerate, or expose contents to water.
Battery replacement should only be performed by a

therefore the E2 has several features that warn you of low
battery conditions and allow you to test and replace the battery.

4.4.1 Low Battery Notification

The E2 keeps track of how long the E2 battery has
been active, and will display a battery icon at the top of the E2 screen whenever the battery is reaching the end of its recommended battery life. If a battery has less than 30% of its battery life left, a yellow battery icon will appear at the top of the screen. If the battery has less than 10% life left, or if the battery switch is currently disabled, a red battery icon will appear.

4.4.2 The Battery Enable Switch

The battery enable switch is located near the battery clip on the processor board. This switch should be set to OFF whenever the E2 unit is not being used to preserve battery life. If the E2 unit is powered up with this switch set to OFF, a red battery icon will appear at the top of the screen. Check the position of this switch, and set it to the ON position. You will have to perform a battery test to clear the battery icon from the screen. See Section 4.4.3, Battery Test below:

5 Serial Configura-
tion

5.1 Overview

E2’s Serial Configuration is the centralized location where all communication ports (COM ports) may be set up in the E2 controller. To support the increasing number of third-party devices that E2 can communicate with, E2 has the expanded flexibility of dynamic COM ports that will support different types of communication protocols to meet the specific needs of the user.
Previously, all COM ports were pre-defined to support a specific type of serial device. E2 now has five configu­rable COM ports that can communicate with different devices on the network.

5.2 COM Ports

The Serial Connection Manager is located in General Setup under the Serial tab. To access Serial connections to set up the COM ports, press Alt + M, or from the E2 Main Menu:
5.3 Serial Device and Soft­ware Setup
After the COM card has been connected to the E2, set up the associated COM port in the Serial Connection Man­ager:

T o begin, first select the COM port you wish to set up,
choose the protocol, and set the baud rate.
The user associates the various hardware devices with the COM ports listed under the Serial tab. Five COM ports have user-configurable values such as baud rate and con­nection type settings.

Pre-Sets

COM1 is pre-set for serial connection. COM3 is pre­set with a modem-only connection type. The COM5 con­nection is a non-configurable E2 keyboard port.
NOTE: If a COM card is not connected to the E2, its associated COM port will not be visible in the Serial Configuration screen.

(The expansion card mounts onto the four standoffs located on the back of the E2 enclosure above the PIB, and is compatible with E2 processor board version 237-4801 only). For more information on this card, refer to
Section 4.3.2 of this manual.

6 The RS485 Network and Hardware Setup

Previous versions of E2 hardware and firmware before version 2.30F01 only supported one I/O network port, with an optional expansion card that could be used for connection to Copeland ISD compressors or IMC/Prodigy S-Bus rooftop unit controllers. Beginning with E2 version
2.30F01, E2s now have up to three RS485 network ports, each of which may be configured as an I/O network, IMC/ Prodigy, ISD, or ECT MODBUS port.
Section 5, Serial Configuration of this manual covers how to assign COM ports COM2, COM4, and COM6 to different RS485 network types. Section 6 (this section) explains the network types, the hardware that may be con­nected to each type, and how to configure the devices.

6.1 The I/O Network

All boards and controllers manufactured by Retail Solutions for communication with E2 via RS485 are gen­erally referred to as I/O boards, and the network they are connected to is referred to as the I/O network (or I/O Net).
A COM port configured as I/O Net may connect with up to 127 I/O boards. This network is used by the E2 to read data from the input boards and to send commands to the analog and digital output boards. Some unit control­lers, such as CCB case controllers and MultiFlex RCBs, also communicate with the E2 via the I/O Network.
6.1.1 I/O Board Names and Termi­nology
There are many input, relay output, analog output, and combination I/O boards available from Retail Solutions for use with the E2. However, separate from the various MultiFlex unit controller models, E2 only recognizes four different types of I/O boards: 16AI, 8RO, 4AO, and 8DO. All E2-compatible I/O boards communicate with E2 as if they are one or more of these types of boards.
In this manual and in the E2 interface, when you encounter these board names, bear in mind that they are terms that represent many types of boards. Tabl e 6-1 describes all the actual boards or board components for each E2 “board type.”

6.1.2 MultiFlex-Plus (+) Board

The MultiFlex-plus board contains a replacement RS485 transceiver chip that presents less of a load on the network than a non-plus board. This increases the maxi­mum number of devices that can be placed on the network, but not the number of board types an Einstein controller can communicate with.
The MultiFlex-plus board now accounts for only 1/8 the load of a non-plus board with 32 total devices on the network (one Einstein controller + 31 boards). This new conversion allows for the placement of 256 devices on the network (one Einstein controller + 255 boards). The num­ber of boards an Einstein controller can support is increased from 31 up to 255 using MultiFlex-plus boards only. In other words, the number of I/O net devices are no longer restricted by the I/O net 31-node limitation.
X + (Y • 8) < 256

6.1.3 Wiring Types

Retail Solutions specifies all RS485 I/O and MOD­BUS wiring used by the E2 must be Belden 8641 (24AWG, 300V, Retail Solutions P/N 135-8641); Belden 8761 (22 AWG, 300V not stocked by Retail Solutions); or a 600V-shiel ded 22AWG equivalent stocked by Retail Solutions (P/N 135-0600). These are two-connector shielded twisted pair cables that support a maximum daisy chain cable distance of 4000 feet (1219 m) between the E2 and the end device on the network.

6.1.4 The I/O Network Structure (Daisy Chains)

The RS485 Input/Output (I/O) Network connects all input and output communication boards together in a sin­gle open communications loop. This loop, or “daisy chain,” connects the E2 to multiple input and output com­munication boards, and terminates at the last input or out­put board on the network. A diagram of this network arrangement is shown in Figure 6-1.
NOTE: The MultiFlex-plus board replaces the old-style MultiFlex boards and is currently being shipped.
6.1.2.1 Board Designation
Plus boards are always identified with a plus (+) sign that appears on the plastic insulating cover on the top of the board, after the board name.
6.1.2.2 Board Calculations
With X as the number of plus boards and Y as the num­ber of non-plus boards, use the following equation to ensure that the number of devices on your network has not exceeded the maximum load limitation of the network. For example, if the total number of devices is less than 256, the maximum load limitation has not been exceeded.

Figure 6-1 - I/O Network Configurations
6.1.5 Network Noise Minimiza­tion
Site environments will frequently have numerous sources of high EMI, or “noise,” that must be accounted for when routing RS485 network cable. Although the cable is shielded against noise, the installer must follow best practices for minimizing network noise.
In general, installers should follow these guidelines when installing RS485 networks:
• Avoid running cable next to noise-generating devices, such as motor starters, contactors, invert­ers, fluorescent light ballasts, arc welders, etc. If possible, keep cable less than 1 foot away from noise-generating devices (ideally, at least 5 feet).
• Do not run RS485 cable in the same conduit as high-voltage wiring, such as 120VAC or 240VAC power wiring. Keep RS485 cable a minimum of 3 inches away from high-voltage wiring (ideally, at least 12 inches). If RS485 must cross paths with high-voltage wiring, cross them perpendicular — running RS485 and high-voltage wire in parallel increases the amount of noise induced on the net­work.
• Ensure you are grounding each input device’s 0V power terminal to a separate earth ground, and set­ting the termination and biasing jumpers as instructed in Section 6.1.8, Setting the Terminating and Biasing Jumpers.
For more instructions on best practices for minimizing
noise, refer to publication 026-1903, E2 Controller Wir- ing Practices, available in the Product Manuals section of the Emerson Climate Technologies Web site:
www.emersonclimate.com

6.1.6 Network ID Numbers (Board Numbers)

Each device on an RS485 segment has either a network
dip switch or rotary dials that must be used to assign the board a unique network ID number.
The network ID number makes a board unique from other boards on the network of the same ty pe. This allows E2 to find it and communicate with it easily.
Boards of the same type should be numbered in sequence, starting with one and continuing with two, three, and so forth. For example, if a segment contains four 16AI boards and five 8RO boards, you should num­ber the 16AIs one, two, three, and four; and the 8ROs one, two, three, four, and five. The same should be done with multiple 4AO and 8DO boards, and IRLDS leak detection units.
For all boards, except 8IO and 8DO boards, the net­work dip switch labeled S1 (or S3 for the 16AI board) is used to set the unique board number of the unit and the baud rate. The 8IO and 8DO uses rotary dials to set the board number of the unit.

Numbering the MultiFlex Combination I/O Boards

When it comes to network numbering, the MultiFlex Combination Input/Output boards (88, 88AO, 168,
168AO, and 168DO) are special cases. They are actually a
combination of three types of Retail Solutions boards: the inputs are configured like a 16AI, the relay outputs are
configured like an 8RO, and the analog outputs are config­ured like a 4AO.
When a MultiFlex combo board is present on the net­work, it must be addressed like all three board types. Therefore, when numbering these boards, you must set a unique number for both the 16AI, 8RO, and 4AO compo­nents of the board.

Addressing the MultiFlex Boards

For MultiFlex boards, set positions 1 to 5 on S3 for the 16AI component and positions 1 to 5 on S4 for the 8RO component. Set positions 6 to 8 on S4 for the 4AO or 4DO segment. For MultiFlex board controllers, use positions 1 to 5 on S3 to set the address.

Addressing the MultiFlex ESR Boards

The MultiFlex ESR uses standard Retail Solutions I/O Network addressing. Set positions 1 to 5 on S1 to set the network ID (address) of the MultiFlex ESR from 1 to 31.
6.1.7 Setting the Baud Rate
All I/O boards have dip switches that determine the baud rate at which they communicate. Currently, the baud rate dip switch in network components may be set at either 4800, 9600, 19200, and 38400. Setting of the baud rate is accomplished using dip switches (refer to the board’s installation sheets at the end of this section for specific dip switch settings).

Baud Rate for the E2

The baud rate default for E2 is 9600.

Baud Rate for the Gateway

The Gateway can be set to either 9600 baud or 19.2K baud by dip switch #6. “ON” places the rate at 9600 baud while “OFF” sets it at 19.2K baud.
Dip switches 6 and 7 control the baud rate at which the Gateway communicates with the site controller on the RS485RS485 Network. These switches must be set to the same baud rate setting as the E2 or REFLECS (usually 9600 baud).
Dip switch 8 controls the baud rate at which the Gate­way communicates with the other devices on the Receiver Bus Network. This baud rate may only be set to either 9600 baud (switch DOWN) or 19200 baud (switch UP). All Gateways and receivers on the Receiver Bus Network must have the same baud rate dip switch setting. It is rec­ommended you use 9600 baud as the Receiver Bus Net­work baud rate.

Baud Rate for the 8IO, 8DO, and ARTC

There are three I/O devices that do not have baud rates
determined by dip switches. They are as follows:

baud rate being used by the I/O devices on the network, and adjusts to match their baud rate.
2. The 8DO - this board automatically detects the baud rate being used by the I/O devices on the network, and adjusts to match their baud rate.
3. The ARTC - this board is fixed at 9600 baud.

Baud Rate for MultiFlex Boards

On all MultiFlex boards, switches 6 and 7 on S3 are
used to set the baud rate. To communicate at 9600 baud, set switch #6 to the UP position and #7 to DOWN. For 19200 baud, set switch #6 to the DOWN position and #7 to UP.

Baud Rate for the MultiFlex ESR

Set the baud rate on the MultiFlex ESR board by set-
ting switches 6 and 7 on the network address terminal (labeled S1).
T o communicate at 9600 baud, set switch #6 to the UP position, and switch #7 to DOWN. For 19200 baud, set switch #6 to the DOWN position and switch #7 to UP. (Currently, 9600 baud is recommended).

Recommended Baud Rate

The baud rate should be set to 9600 baud in all cases.
6.1.8 Setting the Terminating and Biasing Jumpers
The I/O Network connector, for all I/O boards and the E2, has a set of three terminating jumpers. They are the jumpers positioned closest to the I/O Network connector. The E2 has jumpers next to each of the COM ports that can be configured as an I/O network (COM2, COM4, and COM6).
The purpose of the jumpers is to provide network ter­mination resistance and network biasing to the two ends, or termination points, of the daisy chain. One device at the beginning and one device on the end must be terminated
and biased by placing all three jumpers in the UP position. All other devices on the daisy chain must have all three jumpers set to the DOWN position. Figure 6-2 shows the proper terminating jumper settings for the E2 and for all I/ O boards.
Figure 6-2
- I/O Network Termination Jumper Settings
6.1.9 Powering the I/O Boards
All models of E2-compatible I/O boards require 24VAC Class 2 input power. Some boards such as the 16AI, 8RO, 4AO, 8DO, MultiFlex ESR, and MultiFlex 16 use a center-tapped power source. All other models, such as the 8IO and MultiFlex Combination I/O boards, may use non-center tapped power sources.
Retail Solutions supplies a wide variety of 24VAC transformers with varying sizes and either with or without center taps. Table 6-2 shows the transformer sizes and whether they are center-tapped or non-center-tapped. Table 6-3 lists each board, the board’s rating, and whether
or not the board must use center-tapped power.

- Device Power Requirements
1. Determine what the total VA is for the boards that will be powered by the transformer (see
Table 6-3). Example: Two MultiFlex 168AOs (15 VA
each), and one 8DO (18 VA) boards are to be powered by one transformer. The total VA is:
2. Use a transformer that has a power rating higher than the total calculated VA (see Table 6-2).
6.1.9.1 Wiring Types
For powering I/O boards, use only the listed wire types
from Table 6-4. Three-conductor non-shielded cables are the recommended wire for connecting between the center tapped transformer and the I/O boards. The third conduc­tor should be connected to earth ground. If boards use a
center-tapped transformer, also connect the center tap to the earth grounded third conductor.
Power Wiring Types
14 AWG Belden 9495 18 AWG Belden 9493
Table 6-4 - Power Wiring Types
The wire length from the transformer and the number of boards connected to the same wire determines the type wire gauge used. In most cases, the distance between the I/ O boards and the transformer that supplies power to them is not enough to be concerned with. But it is very impor­tant not exceed this maximum wire length or the boards will malfunction.
Use these formulas to determine if the wire gauge you are using fits within specification:
14 AWG:
Feet = 1920/VA
18 AWG:
Feet = 739/VA

above may communicate with IMC/Prodigy rooftop units equipped with IMC/Prodigy control boards version M4-1 or higher. E2 controllers version 2.30F01 and above may use any of the RS485 I/O ports (COM2, COM4, or COM6) as a IMC/Prodigy communication port. Version
2.21F01 E2 units may only connect IMC/Prodigys to an RS485 Expansion Card. Connectivity to IMC/Prodigy is a licensed feature and must be purchased from Retail Solu­tions.
The IMC/Prodigy interface has its own technical bulle­tin explaining installation, network setup, and E2 configu­ration. Refer to Techni cal Bull etin 026-4117.

6.3 ECT MODBUS

E2 controllers version 2.30F01 or greater may select ECT MODBUS as a network type. The E2 communicates with MODBUS devices including but not limited to Con­trol Link CD, Control Link RSC, and Control Link ACC.
The Control Link products have their own documents explaining device configuration, networking, and E2 setup:
026-4600 - Control Link RSC Installation Instruc-

6.3.1 Control Techniques Drive (VSD)

Using the MODBUS network type, E2 controllers can communicate with the Control Techniques variable-speed drive (VSD). There are three different VSD models the E2 communicates with: Commander SE, Commander SK, and Unidrive SP drive types.
Note that all CT drives are 2 stop bits, with no parity. Since ECT MODBUS specifies 1 stop bit, CT drives will configure the General Services setting for stop bits and always communicate with the drives using 2 stop bits. The E2 calculates the difference and adjusts for the additional stop bit.
Configure the COM port the CT drive will connect to by pressing Alt + M to open the serial configuration man­ager. Set the COM port to MODBUS and the baud rate (match the baud rate on the CT drive). For more informa­tion on setting up serial ports, go to Section 5, Serial Con-
figuration.
The Control Techniques VSD has its own technical
bulletin that explains interfacing with E2 (P/N 026-4122). The installation and operation manual explaining the VSD is maintained by Control Techniques. Contact your Con­trol Techniques representative for a copy of this manual.
6.3.2 Copeland Discus with Core­Sense Diagnostics (ISD)
E2 controllers version 2.21F01 and above may com­municate with Copeland ISD compressors using the ECT MODBUS network. E2 controllers versi o n 2.30F01 and above may use any of the RS485 I/O ports (COM2, COM4, or COM6) as a Copeland ISD communication port. Version 2.21F01 E2 units may only connect Cope­land ISD compressors to an RS485 Expansion Card.
The installation and operation manual explaining the Copeland ISD interface is maintained by Copeland. Con­tact your Copeland representative for a copy of this man­ual.

6.3.3 XR35CX, XR75CX, and XEV22 Case Controllers

E2 controllers version 2.84 or greater communicate with the XR and XEV controllers. The XR and XEV con­trol compressor regulation, defrost, light, and evaporator fans in refrigeration systems on normal, low, or medium temperatures, control a wide variety of stepper electronic expansion valves and anti-sweat heaters (if present), and measure and regulate the superheat of the refrigerant in the system.
If the case controller is configured with a Real Time Clock (RTC), it can be programmed with up to 6 daily defrosts and an energy saving function. Without the RT C, the E2 can coordinate defrost cycles and the energy-saving function.
Several parameters of the Emerson controllers (such as inputs, outputs, setpoints, and alarms) can be configured directly in E2 and sent to the appropriate Emerson control­ler, depending on the controller model.
6.3.3.1 XR75CX-Case Display
E2 controllers version 3.02 or greater communicate with the XR75CX-Case Display controller. The XR75CX­Case Display is a microprocessor-based controller, suit­able for applications on medium or low temperature venti­lated refrigeration units. It has up to four (4) analog inputs: discharge air temperature, product temperature, defrost temperature and coil out temperature, four (4) relay out­puts, and up to two (2) digital inputs. For more informa­tion on the XR75CX-Case Display, refer to the XR75CX-

use either as a stand-alone controller or in zone control applications using a Retail Solutions E2 BX building con­trol system. The iPro DAC is capable of controlling heat and cool stages, fans, humidification and dehumidification devices and economizers using on-board I/O and control algorithms, as well as monitor and interact with other building control systems and peripherals (such as smoke alarms and CO2 sensors).
- iPro DAC
The iPro DAC is a packaged HVAC control board for
installation on T35 DIN rail according to EN50022. The Energy Meter can be mounted with any orientation over the entire ambient temperature range, either on a DIN rail or in a panel. The meter is not sensitive to CT orientation to reduce installation errors.
6.3.5.2 Supported System Types
The Energy Meter Series has a number of different possible system wiring configurations. To configure the meter, set the System Type via the User Interface or Mod­bus register 130 (if so equipped). The System Type tells the meter which of its current and voltage inputs are valid, which are to be ignored, and if neutral is connected. Set­ting the correct System Type prevents unwanted energy accumulation on unused inputs, selects the formula to cal­culate the Theoretical Maximum System Power, and deter­mines which phase loss algorithm is to be used. The phase loss algorithm is configured as a percent of the Line-to­Line System Voltage (except when in System Type 10) and also calculates the expected Line to Neutral voltages for system types that have Neutral (12 & 40).
For more information about this application, see the Energy Meter manual (P/N 026-1726).

6.3.8 Light Commercial Thermo­stat
The Light Commercial Thermostat communicates with the E2 using the MODBUS network. The thermostat will enable the E2 to read status information from the device as well as send operational setpoints to the device. The ther­mostat is available on E2 versions 3.02 and above.
6.3.8.1 Thermostat Inputs
The E2 application will provide support for external real time inputs to the thermostat. These inputs are:
•Zone Temperature
•Minimum Damper Position
•Outside Air Temperature
•Inside Humidity
If these inputs are connected to valid values, they are sent to the thermostat to be used in place of any locally connected sensors of the same type. If local sensors are present and meant to be used, the associated inputs on the E2 application should be left disconnected.
6.3.8.2 Advisory and Alarms
The Light Commercial Thermostat also supports diag­nostic functions. When a diagnostic code is sent to the E2 from the thermostat, the E2 application will identify the code and generate the corresponding advisories in the advisory log.
Diagnostic Alarms
Each of these configurable diagnostic alarms in the E2 can be set to Disabled, Failure, Alarm, or Notice with an accompanying priority setting.
The diagnostic alarms supported are:

7 E2 Ethernet Peer Communications

Communication between E2 controller version 2.10 or greater may now be implemented through an Ethernet net­work using TCP/IP protocol. To utilize peer connections over Ethernet, the following tasks must be performed:
• Upgrade the E2 controller firmware to version 2.10 or greater.
• Install an industry-standard Ethernet switch(es) or hub(s) in an area or areas nearby the E2 controllers.
• Install Ethernet straight-through cabling at the site from each E2 to the switch or hub. Installation of RJ-45 connectors may be necessary to achieve this goal. The recommended cabling is CAT 5.
7.1 Ethernet IP Configura­tions
If using an open network configuration (see Section
7.4.2, Open Network Layout), contact your IT Network
Administrator for all IP configuration information (IP Address, Subnet Mask, Primary and Default Gateway set­tings).

Standard industry-accepted practices for wiring of Eth­ernet networks are expected. E2 controllers use a star topology, identical to PC deployment. This includes a unique “point-to-point” run from a switch or hub to the controller (see Table 7-1 for hub part numbers for order- ing). This is done with Category5 (or better) cable. Maxi­mum distance for a run of 10BaseT is 328 feet (100 meters) (11.5 dB loss max).
• The maximum number of controllers allowed on an IP subnet is 20. All E2 controllers that must com­municate with each other must be on the same sub­net.
• Recommended Ethernet cabling is CAT 5 (straight­through cable).
• 328 feet (100 meters) is the maximum distance allowed between devices before a switch or hub must be added.

7.3 Software Specifica­tions
TCP/IP
E2 controller versions 2.10 and later communicate between controllers using the TCP/IP protocol. TCP Port 7238 is the default for connections established between the controllers. All peer communications occur over this port.

7.4 Ethernet Network Layouts

The two types of network options for E2 controllers using Ethernet communications are:
1. “Closed Network” - E2 devices are not connected to a store’s LAN. (The only devices on the net­work are the E2 controllers themselves.) This network type is used if there is no need to inte­grate the network into the company’s intranet.
2. “Open Network” - E2 devices are connected to the store’s LAN. (Devices on the network include E2s and other Ethernet-TCP/IP devices.) This network type is used if the network will be con­nected to the store’s LAN.
NOTE: The gateway E2 is the E2 controller at a remote site to which UltraSite directly con-
nects. It is through this E2 that UltraSite com­municates with the other controllers (defined as the “non-gateway” E2s and external entities such as UltraSite, InSite, Site Manager etc.).

7.4.1 Closed Network Layout

NOTE: Contact your IT Network Administra­tor for setup parameters for both closed and open networks.
The E2 peer Ethernet network facilitates communica­tions between E2 controllers. These include at least the following:
Routing of messages between external entities such as UltraSite, InSite, Site Manager, and non-gateway E2 controllers.
Distribution of global data and other network variables such as system time, controller iden­tification, etc.
Communication between E2 controller applica­tions such as Remote Login and Remote File Services.

8 Echelon Network and Hardware Setup

8.1 Overview

Echelon is an optional, two-conductor network that interconnects E2s and other associated devices, such as CC-100 case controllers, TD3 temperature displays, and ESR8 evaporator stepper regulator boards. All Echelon devices are wired together using the daisy-chain method of network structuring. If an Echelon network-enabled E2 is required, it must be specifically ordered from Retail Solutions as an Echelon-enabled E2, and equipped with an Echelon plug-in card. See Section 4.3.1, Echelon Card Plug-In (P/N 537-4860) with mounting screw (P/N 101-4201).

8.2 Wiring Type

Retail Solutions specifies one type of cable for Echelon Network wiring. This cable type’s properties are listed in Table 8-1.
Cable Type Level 4, twisted pair, stranded, shielded Wire Diam./AWG 0.65mm/22AWG Loop Resistance 106(ohms/km)

8.3 Echelon Network Structuring (Daisy-Chains)

Echelon devices are networked together into configu-
rations called segments. A segment is a group of up to 64 Echelon devices that are connected together on an unbro­ken series of wires.
The recommended way of constructing an Echelon
Network is called daisy-chaining. In the daisy-chain net- work configuration, devices are arranged by subnets, which consist of one E2 and all Echelon devices associ­ated with the E2.
First, all devices in a subnet are connected in an unbro-
ken chain without branches or “star configurations” (see Figure 8-1). Then, if more than one E2 is present on-site, all chains are connected so that the entire network forms a
large unbroken chain, called a daisy chain (see Figure 8-2). This allows for all devices in the Eche­lon Network to be hard wired together for trouble free communication.

multiple routers can be used to extend the network indefi­nitely.
More information about routers and how they are used
in a daisy-chain Echelon Network can be found in the
Router and Repeater Installation Guide (P/N 026-1605).

8.4 Device Termination

In a daisy-chain configuration, both ends of the net-
work segment must be terminated. Terminate the E2 by setting jumper JP7 to the UP position, as shown in Figure 8-3. Other devices on the Echelon Network are terminated either by jumpers on the control board or by connecting a 102-ohm “terminator block” at the end of the network seg­ment (see Section 8.4.1, Using a Termination Block (P/N 535-2715) to Terminate a Daisy Chain). Refer to the installation guide references at the end of this section for specific device termination instructions.
All other E2s and Echelon devices that aren’t at the end of a daisy-chained network segment must be untermi­nated.
If a router or repeater is being used in a network, termi­nation becomes more complicated, because routers and repeaters join multiple daisy-chain segments together. Refer to the Router and Repeater Installation Guide (P/N 026-1605), for specific termination instructions.

total Echelon devices (also called "nodes"). If there are 64 or more Echelon devices at your site, an Echelon-compati­ble router (P/N 572-4200) will be required. A router placed on the Echelon Network allows you to add another 63-node daisy-chain network. For larger installations,

8.4.1 Using a Termination Block (P/N 535-2715) to Terminate a Daisy Chain

Some Echelon Network devices, notably TD3s, have no on-board means of terminating. For some other devices, it is inconvenient to use the jumpers supplied for termination (the CC-100/CS-100 case controllers, for example, require the enclosure to be removed to set the jumper).
To remedy these problems, Retail Solutions supplies termination blocks that can be wired to the end of an Eche­lon cable segment. This termination block uses the same three-pin connector as all other Echelon devices. Wire the two signal wires to the outside terminals, and connect the shield to the middle terminal (see Figure 8-4).
a maximum of 63 more nodes.
Repeaters boost signal strength and are only used in
instances where a segment of 63 nodes or less uses more than 4592 feet of Echelon cable.
Refer to the Router and Repeater Installation Guide (P/N 026-1605), for information about router and repeater placement.

8.6 Installing Echelon Devices

The E2 control system has several types of peripheral control boards that communicate using the Echelon Net­work: the 16AIe analog input board, the 8ROe relay out­put board, the CC-100/CS-100 series of case control and case circuit control boards, and the ESR8 board.
NOTE: The recommended termination proce­dure for all Echelon devices is the termination block.
Figure 8-4
- Placement and Wiring of the Termination Block

8.5 Wire Restrictions

8.6.1 Powering Echelon Devices

CAUTION: Do not power Echelon devices with the same 56VA and 80VA transformers
used to power the I/O Network. Echelon devices require Class 2 power to operate, which is not supplied by the I/O board transformers.
All Echelon devices require 24VAC Class 2 power. Retail Solutions specs several sizes of transformers to accommodate the full range of Retail Solutions’ Echelon­compatible products. Table 8-3 lists each transformer’s part number and rating.
Xformer P/N VA Rating Input Voltage
640-0039 10 VA 110 VAC
640-0041 50 VA 110 VAC
640-0042 50 VA 220 V AC
640-0050 75 VA 110 VAC
640-0045 75 VA 220 V AC

Maximum Total Segment Length

The total amount of wire used to connect all E2s and associated controllers in a single segment (not including devices on the other side of routers) cannot be longer than 4592 feet (1400 meters). If the total length of cable used is longer than 4592 feet, a repeater or router will be required.
Routers act as communication gateways that reduce the amount of network traffic. They are used when net­works exceed their 63-node limit. Adding a router allows you to add another daisy-chain segment of 4592 feet with

Red (Service) During normal operation this
LED should be off. If the Ser­vice Pin is pressed, this LED will come on.
If the LED is blinking, the node does not have its Subnet/ Node address set. (E2 should set this during the first power ­up sequence where the user will be asked in which Subnet to put the controller (E2 will al­ways be Node = 1 on the net­work).
If the LED is blinking, then try resetting the E2. If this does not correct the problem, re­place the Echelon board.

9.1 The 16AI, 8IO, and MultiFlex Inputs

9.1.1 Connecting Sensors to Input Boards

There are five network boards that may accept inputs: on the I/O Network, the MultiFlex, 16AI, ARTC, and the 8IO Combination Input/Output Board. Wiring an input to these boards requires three steps:
1. Connect the sensor’s signal wires to the two ter­minals of an input point.
2. Set the input type dip switch that corresponds to the point being connected.
3. If necessary, connect the power lead of the sensor to one of the 5V or 12V power terminals.
9.1.1.1 Wiring

MultiFlex Boards

An input point connector on a MultiFlex, 16AI, and
16AIe board consists of two terminals, as shown in Figure 9-1. One of these terminals, labeled “SIG”, reads the sig­nal from the sensor, while the other, labeled “0v” is where sensor’s ground and/or cable shield wire is connected.

9.1.1.2 Sensor Wiring Types
Specific wiring types are required for each type of sen-
sor used with E2.

All Analog Temperature Sensors and Air Flow Sensors

Temperature and air flow sensors are to be wired with shielded, 2 conductor, at least 22 GA wire (Belden # 8761 or equivalent).

All Pressure Transducers, Humidity Sensors, and Refrigeration Transducers

Pressure and refrigeration transducers and humidity sensors are to be wired with shielded, 3 conductor, at least 22 GA wire (Belden #8771 or equivalent).

Dewpoint and Light Level Sensors

These sensors are to be wired with shielded, 4 conduc­tor at least 22 GA wire (Belden # 8729 or equivalent).
9.1.1.3 Input Type Dip Switches
An input type dip switch must be set for each input point. Input type dip switches are located in the switch banks labeled S1 and S2 on the MultiFlex, 16AI, and switch bank S4 on the 8IO.
The input type dip switch tells the input board whether or not the sensor connected to the point requires a DC sup­ply voltage in order to operate. If the sensor requires DC voltage, the dip switch should be set to the DOWN posi­tion. If the sensor does not require power, or if it uses AC power, the dip switch should be set to the UP position. Dip switches for unused points should be set to the UP posi­tion.
The dip switch positions for each specific sensor type is shown in Figure 9-2.

9.1.3 Input Setup in E2
At this point in the setup process, you should have all sensors, transducers, and other input devices wired to points on MultiFlexes, 16AIs, and all output devices con­nected to 8ROs, 8DOs, or 4AOs outputs. Once the physi­cal wiring is complete, you will need to tell E2 the types of sensors or devices that are connected to each I/O point. This is achieved in the Input and Output Definitions screens.
