The Sylk IO devices are part of the Spyder family. The three
IO devices are designed to seamlessly integrate with
Spyder with relay controllers using only Sylk™ for
communication. These devices expand the footprint of a
single Spyder, increasing the controller's ability to be
applied in applications that require a large amount of
physical I/O. The Sylk IO devices are programmable using
existing Spyder wire sheets through the Niagara
Framework® software. Since the Sylk IO devices are
extensions of the Spyder LON and Spyder BACnet
controllers, the same Spyder feature will be leveraged in
the WebPro workbench tool and the WEBs-AX JACE
controller. To utilize the Sylk IO devices, the Spyder with
Relay models, PUL6438SR (for LON) or PUB6438SR (for
BACnet), need to be selected.
The Sylk IO devices are intended for use in HVAC
applications that require a programmable controller
where the IO count is more than the full sized Spyder point
count. All devices provide flexible, universal inputs for
external sensors while SIO6042 and SIO4022 provide a
combination of analog and digital outputs.
FEATURES
•Ex
pands a single Spyder controller's IO count by 8-1
IO per device.
• Up to three devices for Lon Spyders and up to two
devices for BACnet Spyders can be applied.
• Communicates through Sylk™ bus freeing up IO for
more applications.
• Program logic resides in a single controller and uses
the existing Spyder wire sheet.
• Programming is built directly into the Spyder tool.
• Installation can be done locally or remotely.
• Field configurable and programmable for control,
input, and output functions using the Niagara
Framework® software.
• All wiring connections are made to removable
terminal blocks to simplify device installation and
replacement.
The Sylk IO devices are available in three models, as
described in Table 1.

BEFORE INSTALLATION
The device is available in three models (see Table 1).
Review the power, input, and output specifications on
page 2 before installing the device.
— Hardware driven by Triac outputs must have a
minimum current draw, when energized, of 25 mA and a
maximum current draw of 500 mA.
— Hardware driven by the analog current outputs must
have a maximum resistance of 550 Ohms, resulting in a
maximum voltage of 11 volts when driven at 20 mA. If
resistance exceeds 550 Ohms, voltages up to 18 Vdc
are possible at the analog output terminal.
ANALOG VOLTAGE OUTPUTS:
Voltage Output Range: 0 to 10.0 Vdc
Maximum Output Current: 10.0 mA
Analog outputs may be configured as digital outputs and
operate as follows:
– False (0%) produces 0 Vdc, (0 mA)
– True (100%) produces the maximum 11 Vdc, (22 mA)

The device enclosure is constructed of a plastic base plate
and a plastic factory-snap-on cover.
NOTE: The device is designed so that the cover does not
The device mounts using four screws inserted through the
corners of the base plate. Fasten securely with four No. 6
or No. 8 machine or sheet metal screws.
The device can be mounted in any orientation. Ventilation
openings are designed into the cover to allow proper heat
dissipation, regardless of the mounting orientation.
DIN Rail Mounting
To mount the SIO12000, SIO4022, or SIO6042 device on a
DIN rail [standard EN50022; 1-3/8 in. x 9/32 in. (7.5 mm x
35 mm)], refer to Fig. 2 and perform the following steps:
need to be removed from the base plate for either
mounting or wiring.
1. Holding the device with its top tilted in towards the
DIN rail, hook the two top tabs on the back of the
device onto the top of the DIN rail.
2. Push down and in to snap the two bottom flex connectors of the device onto the DIN rail.
IMPORTANT
To remove the device from the DIN rail, perform
the following:
1. Push straight up from the bottom to release the
top tabs.
2. Rotate the top of the device out towards you and
pull the controller down and away from the DIN rail
to release the bottom flex connectors.

(models SIO12000, SIO4022, and SIO6042).
Power
Before wiring the controller and device, determine the
input and output device requirements for each controller
and device used in the system. Select input and output
devices compatible with the controller, device, and the
application. Consider the operating range, wiring
requirements, and the environment conditions when
selecting input/output devices. When selecting actuators
for modulating applications consider using floating
control. In direct digital control applications, floating
actuators will generally provide control action equal to or
better than an analog input actuator for lower cost.
Determine the location of controllers, sensors, actuators
and other input/output devices and create wiring diagrams.
The application engineer must review the control job
requirements. This includes the sequences of operation
for the controller, and for the system as a whole. Usually,
there are variables that must be passed between
controllers that are required for optimum system-wide
operation. Typical examples are the TOD, Occ/Unocc
signal, the outdoor air temperature, the demand limit
control signal, and the smoke control mode signal.
It is important to understand these interrelationships
early in the job engineering process, to ensure proper
implementation when configuring the controllers.
Power Budget
A power budget must be calculated for each device to
determine the required transformer size for proper
operation. A power budget is simply the summing of the
maximum power draw ratings (in VA) of all the devices to
be controlled. This includes the controller itself and any
devices powered from the controller, such as equipment
actuators (ML6161 or other motors) and various
contactors and transducers.

IMPORTANT
• If a controller is used on Heating and Cooling
Equipment (UL 1995, U.S. only) and transformer
primary power is more than 150 volts, connect the
transformer secondary common to earth ground
(see Fig. 5 on page 6).
• When multiple controllers operate from a single
transformer, connect the same side of the transformer secondary to the same power input terminal in each device. The earth ground terminal
(terminal 3) must be connected to a verified earth
ground for each controller in the group (see Fig. 6
on page 7).
POWER BUDGET CALCULATION EXAMPLE
Table 3 is an example of a power budget calculation for
typical Spyder LON controller and Sylk IO devices. While
the example is shown for only these models, the process is
applicable for all controller and device configurations.

The system example above requires 31.7 VA of peak power.
Therefore, a 100 VA AT92A transformer could be used to
power one controller and device of this type. Because the
total peak power is less than 33 VA, this same transformer
could be used to power this configuration and meet NEC
Class 2 restrictions (no greater than 100 VA).

When used, each digital Triac output can add an addi-
tional 22 VA (peak) and 12 VA long-term.
For contactors and similar devices, the in-rush power ratings
should be used as the worst case values when performing
power budget calculations. Also, the application engineer
must consider the possible combinations of simultaneously
energized outputs and calculate the VA ratings accordingly.
The worst case, which uses the largest possible VA load,
should be determined when sizing the transformer.
Each device requires 24 Vac power from an energy-limited
Class II power source. To conform to Class II restrictions
(U.S. only), transformers must not be larger than 100 VA. A
single transformer can power more than one device.
GUIDELINES FOR POWER WIRING ARE AS FOLLOWS:
—For multiple devices operating from a single trans-
former, the same side of the transformer secondary
must be connected to the same power input terminal in each device. The earth ground terminal must
be connected to a verified earth ground for each
device in the group (see Fig. 6 on page 7). Device
configurations are not necessarily limited to three
devices, but the total power draw, including accessories, cannot exceed 100 VA when powered by the
same transformer (U.S. only).
—See Fig. 5 on page 6 for device power wiring used in
UL 1995 equipment (U.S. only).
—Many devices require all loads to be powered by the
same transformer that powers the device.
—Keep the earth ground connection wire run as short
as possible (refer to Fig. 4–Fig. 6 beginning on
page 6).
—Do not connect earth ground to the device’s digital
or analog ground terminals (refer to Fig. 4 and
Fig. 6).
—Unswitched 24 Vac power wiring can be run in the
same conduit as the L
ONWORKS® Bus cable.
31-00028—024

SYLK™ I/O DEVICES
Line-Loss
Devices must receive a minimum supply voltage of 20 Vac.
If long power or output wire runs are required, a voltage
drop due to Ohms Law (I x R) line-loss must be considered.
This line-loss can result in a significant increase in total
power required and thereby affect transformer sizing. The
following example is an I x R line-loss calculation for a 200
ft. (61m) run from the transformer to a device drawing 37
VA and using two 18 AWG (1.0 sq mm) wires.
The formula is:
Loss = [length of round-trip wire run (ft.)] x [resistance
in wire (ohms per ft.)] x [current in wire (amperes)]
From specification data:
18 AWG twisted pair wire has a resistance of 6.52 ohms
per 1000 feet.
Loss = [(400 ft.) x (6.52/1000 ohms per ft.)] x [(37
VA)/(24V)] = 4.02 volts
This means that four volts are going to be lost between the
transformer and the device. To assure the device receives
at least 20 volts, the transformer must output more than
24 volts. Because all transformer output voltage levels
depend on the size of the connected load, a larger
transformer outputs a higher voltage than a smaller one
for a given load. Fig. 3 shows this voltage load
dependence.
In the preceding I x R loss example, even though the
device load is only 37 VA, a standard 40 VA transformer is
not sufficient due to the line-loss. Looking at Fig. 3, a 40
VA transformer is just under 100 percent loaded (for the
37 VA controller) and has a secondary voltage of 22.9
volts. (Use the lower edge of the shaded zone in Fig. 3 that
represents the worst case conditions.) When the I x R loss
of four volts is subtracted, only 18.9 volts reaches the
device. This is not enough voltage for proper operation.
In this situation, the engineer has three alternatives:
1. Use a larger transformer. For example, if an 80 VA
model is used, an output of 24.4 volts, minus the
four volt line-loss, supplies 20.4V to the device (see
Fig. 3). Although acceptable, the four-volt line-loss
in this example is higher than recommended.
IMPORTANT
No installation should be designed where the
line-loss is greater than two volts. This allows for
nominal operation if the primary voltage drops to
102 Vac (120 Vac minus 15 percent).
The issue of line-loss is also important in the case of the
output wiring connected to the Triac digital outputs. The
same formula and method are used. Keep all power and
output wire runs as short as practical. When necessary,
use heavier gauge wire, a bigger transformer, or install the
transformer closer to the controller.
To meet the National Electrical Manufacturers Association
(NEMA) standards, a transformer must stay within the
NEMA limits. The chart in Fig. 3 shows the required limits
at various loads.
With 100 percent load, the transformer secondary must
supply between 23 and 25 volts to meet the NEMA
standard. When a purchased transformer meets the
NEMA standard DC20-1986, the transformer voltage
regulating ability can be considered reliable. Compliance
with the NEMA standard is voluntary.

2. Use heavier gauge wire for the power run. 14 AWG
(2.0 sq mm) wire has a resistance of 2.57 ohms per
1,000 ft. Using the preceding formula results in a
line-loss of only 1.58 volts (compared with 4.02
volts). This would allow a 40 VA transformer to be
used. 14 AWG (2.0 sq mm) wire is the recommended
wire size for 24 Vac wiring.
3. Locate the transformer closer to the device. This
reduces the length of the wire run, and the line-loss.
NOTE: The AT88A and AT92A transformers do not meet
the voluntary NEMA standard DC20-1986.
Wiring
All wiring must comply with applicable electrical codes
and ordinances, or as specified on installation wiring
diagrams. Device wiring is terminated to the screw
terminal blocks located on the top and the bottom of the
device.

WARNING
A
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause severe injury, death or property
damage.
Disconnect power supply before beginning wiring
or making wiring connections, to prevent electrical
shock or equipment damage.
NOTES:
—For multiple controllers and devices operating
from a single transformer, the same side of the
transformer secondary must be connected to
the same power input terminal in each controller. Controller and device configurations will
not necessarily be limited to three devices, but
the total power draw, including accessories,
cannot exceed 100 VA when powered by the
same transformer (U.S. only). For power and
wiring recommendations, See “Power” on
page 3. The earth ground terminal (terminal 3)
must be connected to a verified earth ground
for each controller or device in the group (see
Fig. 6 on page 7).
—All loads on the controller and device must be
powered by the same transformer that powers
the controller and device themselves. A controller can use separate transformers for controller power and output power.
—Keep the earth ground connection (terminal 3)
wire run as short as possible.
—Do not connect the universal input COM termi-
nals, analog output COM terminals or the digital input/output COM terminals to earth
ground. Refer to Fig. 4–Fig. 6 for wiring exam-
ples.
The 24 Vac power from an energy limited Class II power
source must be provided to the controller and device. To
conform to Class II restrictions (U.S. only), the transformer
must not be larger than 100 VA.
Fig. 4 depicts a single controller using one transformer.
IMPORTANT
If the controller and device are used on Heating
and Cooling Equipment (UL 1995, U.S. only) and
the transformer primary power is more than 150
volts, connect terminal 2, (the 24 Vac common [24

Communications
Sylk™ Bus
Sylk is a two wire, polarity insensitive bus that provides
both 18 VDC power and communications between a Sylkenabled sensor, Sylk-enabled device, and a Sylk-enabled
controller. Using Sylk-enabled sensors and devices saves
I/O on the controller and is faster and cheaper to install
since only two wires are needed and the bus is polarity
insensitive. Sylk sensors and devices are configured using
the latest release of the Spyder Tool for WEBPro and
WEBStation. Using 18 AWG wire, the maximum wire
length for Sylk is 200 ft.
100 VA when powered by the same transformer
(U.S. only). For power wiring recommendations,
see “Power” on page 3.
For Spyders and Sylk IO devices, use the Resource Usage
View in the Spyder tool to determine the maximum
number of devices.
Setting the Device Bus Address Dial
Each device on a Sylk bus must use a different bus
address, and there may be multiple Sylk IOs wired on a
single Sylk bus. To change the bus address of a device,
adjust the address dipswitches to match that of the
desired bus address (1–15). Use the bus address label,
shown in Fig. 7, as a reference. The default address for
Sylk IOs is 1. The address on the device must match the
address in the configuration tool.

Wiring Details
Each device is shipped with the digital outputs, which
switch the 24 Vac to the load (High Side).
The analog outputs (AO) are used to control modulating
heating, cooling and economizer equipment. Any AO may
be used as a digital output, as follows:
— False (0%) produces 0 Vdc, (0 mA)
— True (100%) produces the maximum 11 Vdc (22 mA)

IMPORTANT
If the device is not connected to a good earth
ground, the device's internal transient protection
circuitry is compromised and the function of
protecting the device from noise and power line
spikes cannot be fulfilled. This could result in a
damaged circuit board and require replacement of
the device. Refer to installation diagrams for
specific wiring.
CHECKOUT
Step 1. Check Installation and Wiring
Inspect all wiring connections at the device terminals, and
verify compliance with installation wiring diagrams. If any
wiring changes are required, first be sure to remove power
from the controller before starting work. Pay particular
attention to:
— 24 Vac power connections. Verify that multiple devices
being powered by the same transformer are wired with
the transformer secondary connected to the same
input terminal numbers on each device. Use a meter to
measure 24 Vac at the appropriate terminals (see Fig. 6
on page 7). Device configurations are not necessarily
limited to three devices, but the total power draw,
including accessories, cannot exceed 100 VA when
powered by the same transformer (U.S. only).
— Be sure that each device has terminal 3 wired to a
verified earth ground, using a wire run as short as
possible with the heaviest gauge wire available, up to
14 AWG (2.0 sq mm) with a minimum of 18 AWG (1.0 sq
mm) for each controller in the group (see Fig. 6 on
page 7).
— Verify that Triac wiring of the digital outputs to external
devices uses the proper load power and 24 Vac
common terminal (digital output common terminals)
for High-Side switching.
NOTE: All wiring must comply with applicable electrical
codes and ordinances or as specified on installation wiring diagrams.
For guidelines for wiring run lengths and power budget,
see “Power” on page 3.

Terminal Block Removal
To simplify device replacement, all terminal blocks are
designed to be removed with the wiring connections intact
and then re-installed on the new device. See Fig. 10 and
refer to the following procedure:
Page 11
SYLK™ I/O DEVICES
SHORT TERMINAL BLOCK
LONGTERMINAL BLOCK
M23563
IMPORTANT
To prevent bending or breaking the alignment pins
on longer terminal blocks, insert the screwdriver at
several points to evenly and gradually lift up the
terminal block.
Insert the screwdriver blade no more than 1/8 in.
(3 mm) to prevent damage to the terminal block
alignment pins on the device circuit board.
Fig. 10. Removing Terminal Blocks.
1. Use a thin-bladed screwdriver to evenly raise the ter-
minal block from its alignment pins:
a. For short terminal blocks (1 to 5 terminals),
insert screwdriver blade in the center of the terminal block and use a back and forth twisting
motion to gently raise the terminal block from its
alignment pins 1/4 in. (6.35 mm).
b. For long terminal blocks (6 or more terminals),
insert screwdriver blade on one side of the terminal block and gently rotate the blade 1/4 turn.
Then, move to the other side of the terminal
block and do the same. Repeat until the terminal
block is evenly raised 1/4 in. (6.35 mm) from its
alignment pins.
2. Once the terminal block is raised 1/4 in. (6.35 mm)
from its alignment pins, grasp the terminal block at
its center (for long terminal blocks grasp it at each
end) and pull it straight up.
Device Replacement (SIO12000,
SIO4022, and SIO6042)
Perform the following to replace the SIO12000, SIO4022,
and SIO6042 devices:
1. Remove all power from the device.
2. Remove the terminal blocks (See “Terminal Block
Removal” on page 10.).
3. Remove the old device from its mounting.
IMPORTANT
(FOR DEVICES MOUNTED TO A DIN RAIL):
