Installation Instructions

Configuration and Setup

Use the software LinkBoxBacnet to configure IntesisBox. Follow User’s Manual instructions for detail on the configuration process.

See instructions to download and install the latest version of LinkBoxBacnet and
its user's manual at

http://www.intesis.com/down/bacnet/linkboxbacnet.html

 IntesisBox must be installed by accredited electrician or similar technical personnel, following all the safety instructions

given here, and in accordance always with the country legislation for installation of electric equipment.

 IntesisBox can not be installed outdoors or exposed to direct solar radiation, water, high relative humidity or dust.
 IntesisBox must only be installed in a restricted access location.
 In case of wall mount, fix firmly IntesisBox on a not vibrating surface following the instructions below.
 In case of DIN rail mount fix IntesisBox properly to the DIN rail following the instructions below.
 Mounting on DIN rail inside a metallic cabinet properly connected to earth is recommended.
 Disconnect always power of any wires before manipulating and connecting them to IntesisBox.
 Respect always the expected polarity of power and communication cables when connecting them to IntesisBox.
 Supply always a correct voltage to power IntesisBox, within voltage range admitted (230Vac +/ -10%).
 This device was designed for installation in an enclosure. To avoid electrostatic discharge to the unit in environments with

static levels above 4 kV precautions should be taken when the device is mounted outside an enclosure. When working in
an enclosure (ex. making adjustments, setting switches etc.) typical anti-static precautions should be observed before
touching the unit

Follow carefully this safety and installation instructions. Improper work may lead to serious harmful for your
health and also may damage seriously the IntesisBox and/or any other equipment connected to it.

 Disconnect the mains power and power of any bus or communication cable before connecting it to IntesisBox.
 Mount IntesisBox on the wall or DIN rail following the instruction given below, respecting the safety instructions given

above.

 Connect the mains power cable to the supply voltage terminal block of IntesisBox.
 Circuit-breaker must be used before the mains power cable. Rating 250V-6A
 Connect the communication cables to IntesisBox, see details on the user's manual.
 Power IntesisBox and the rest of devices connected to it.
 After power-on, DALI bus LED (at the left side of DALI connector) should be ON, signalling that there is DALI bus voltage.

If DALI bus LED is OFF, you should check the DALI communication line for a possible short-circuit.

 If your DALI installation is already operative, communication at DALI side can be tested by pressing the DALI test button:

 Pressing once the button, the ballasts will switch ON (DALI led will start flashing)
 Pressing again the button, the ballasts will switch OFF (DALI led will toggle to ON)
 Pressing again the button, the ballasts will switch ON, and remain ON until their value is changed from BACnet side

(DALI led will toggle to OFF, signaling that the test has ended).

Wall mounting

1. Separate the fixing clips in the bottom of the box, pushing them to the outside until hearing the "click"
which indicates that now the clips are in position for wall mount, see in the figure below.

2. Drill 3 holes in the wall following as a guide the distances shown below. Use the holes of the clips
to fix the box in the wall, using screws.

DIN rail mounting

With the clips of the box in their original position, insert first the box in the upper edge of the DIN rail. Then insert
the box in the down part of the rail, using a small screwdriver, following the steps in the figure below.

Connections

________________________________________________________________________________________
Notes:

1. BACnet/IP connection: Use a crossover ethernet CAT5 cable if connecting directly to a BACnet/IP controller, or a straight ethernet CAT5
cable if connecting to a hub or switch of the LAN in the installation. If communicating through a LAN you might need to contact the network
administrator to make sure UDP traffic and port used for BACnet/IP (default is 47808) are allowed throughout the LAN path between
IntesisBox and your BACnet client.

DALI connection: Connect DALI bus to the DALI connector of IntesisBox. IntesisBox provides 15Vdc (+/-2%) DALI voltage to the bus.

2. Use the software LinkBoxBacnet to configure IntesisBox. Consult user's manual for details.
