Mounting

Location Considerations

Follow these guidelines when mounting an NAE55:
Ensure that the mounting surface can support the NAE55 and any user-supplied enclosure.
Mount the NAE55 in the proper orientation (Figure
4).
Mount the NAE55 on an even surface in wall mount applications whenever possible. If you must mount the NAE55 on an uneven surface, be careful not to crack the wall mount feet or housing when tightening the screws. Use shims or washers to mount the unit securely on the mounting surface.
Mount the NAE55 in areas free of corrosive vapors and observe the environmental limitations listed in the Technical Specifications section.
Do not mount the NAE55 on surfaces that are prone to vibration, such as duct work, or in areas where electromagnetic emissions from other devices or wiring can interfere with NAE55 communication.
Allow sufficient space for running cable and wire, making terminal connections, and accessing battery compartment (Figure 2).
Do not mount the power supply below the NAE55.
On panel or enclosure mount applications, observe these additional guidelines:
Do not install the NAE55 in an airtight enclosure.
Mount the NAE55 so that the enclosure wall or the transformer does not obstruct ventilation of the NAE55 housing.
Each NAE55 application is different, and no general guidelines can be given about the heat dissipating devices that may be mounted in an enclosure with the NAE55. Monitor the NAE55 processor temperature for each application to determine the acceptable combinations of devices and proper mounting location for your specific application.
Important: Do not add any devices to an enclosure with
an NAE55 that could cause the temperature of the NAE55 processor to exceed 70˚C (158˚F). View the NAE55’s CPU Temperature value on the NAE55’s
Diagnostic tab on the Metasys® Site
Management Portal. See Technical
Specifications for ambient condition
requirements, and refer to the Troubleshooting section of the NAE Commissioning Guide (LIT-1201519) for additional information.

Mounting the NAE55

Wall Mount Applications

To Mount the NAE55 on a vertical surface:
1. Mark the location of the four wall mount feet on the wall using the dimensions in Figure 3 and an orientation shown in Figure 4, or hold the NAE55 up to the wall and mark the hole locations.
Figure 3: Mounting Screw Hole Dimensions,
mm (in.)
Figure 2: NAE55 DIN Rail Mount Dimensions and
Mounting Space Requirements, mm (in.)
2. Drill holes in the wall at the marked locations.
3. Insert appropriate wall anchors in all four holes (if necessary) and insert the screws into the top two holes. Leave enough space between the wall surface and the screw head for the wall mount feet.
4. Hang the NAE55 on the screws with the top wall mount feet for horizontal wall mount applications. Hold the NAE55 in place for vertical application.
3NAE55/NIE55 Installation Instructions
Note: The wall mount feet are designed to make
mounting easier. When the NAE55 is wall mounted in the BEST (horizontal) orientation, you can hang the NAE55 on the screws with the upper two mount feet.
5. Insert the screws into the lower two wall mount feet and holes and carefully tighten all of the screws.
Important: Do not overtighten the mounting screws.
Overtightening the screws can crack the NAE55 wall mount feet or housing.

DIN Rail Mount Applications

To mount the NAE55 on DIN rails:
1. Mount two DIN rails horizontally, so they are 125 mm (4.9 in.) apart on centers (Figure 2).
2. Snap the DIN clips on the bottom of the NAE55 to the outward position.
3. Hang the NAE55 on the DIN rail hooks on the back of the NAE55.
Press the DIN clips back into position to secure the unit on the DIN rails.

Wiring

Power Supply, Network, and Communication Connections

See Figure 1 for the location of the power supply terminal, network communication terminals, Ethernet jack, and modem jack.

Power Supply

Important: Install the data protection battery before
applying 24 VAC power to the NAE55. See the Installing the Data Protection Battery section.
In North America, use a Class 2, 24 VAC power supply with a 50 VA minimum output. Outside North America, use a 24 VAC Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) transformer at the appropriate rating. The minimum input voltage for the NAE55 to operate properly is 20 VAC. See the Technical Specifications section.
Use a dedicated power supply to the NAE55 only. Do not connect any other loads to the power supply. Additional loads may cause noise interference.

FC Bus Terminal Block

The two Field Controllers (FCs) Bus connections on the MS-NAE55xx-x models are 4-pin removable, keyed terminal blocks labeled FC A and FC B.
To remove the NAE55 from the DIN rails:
1. Snap the DIN clips on the bottom of the NAE55 to the outward position.
2. Lift the NAE55 off the DIN rails.

Enclosure Mount

To mount the NAE55 in an enclosure:
1. Mount the enclosure per the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Mount the NAE55 in the enclosure following the guidelines in the Location Considerations and
Mounting the NAE55 sections of this document.
Note: MS-NIE55xx-x models (NIE55s) do not have FC
Bus terminal blocks or LONWORKS® network
terminal blocks.
The FC bus connections are optically isolated RS-485 ports with keyed 4-position terminal blocks that communicate at 9.6k, 19.2k, 38.4k, or 76.8k baud. Use
an FC Bus port to integrate an N2 network or a BACnet®
Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) FC Bus trunk into the Metasys system.
Note: N2 and BACnet MS/TP Buses have different
protocols and network requirements. Do not connect N2 and MS/TP devices to the same FC Bus port.
The Shield (SHD) connections on the FC terminal blocks are not connected to any earth ground connection. The FC A and FC B terminal blocks are not interchangeable.

LONWORKS Network Terminal Block

The LONWORKS TP/FT-10 network connection on the MS-NAE552x-2 models (only) is a 3-wire removable, keyed terminal block. The SHD connection on the LONWORKS network terminal block is an isolated terminal and is not connected in the NAE552x. Use the LONWORKS terminal block to connect LONWORKS networks to the NAE552x.
4NAE55/NIE55 Installation Instructions

Computer Serial Ports

The RS-232-C serial ports on the NAE55 are for direct connection using a standard 9-pin female Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) to 9-pin female DTE null modem cable. The NAE55 serial ports do not support external modems. The RS-232-C serial ports are labeled RS232C A and RS232C B (Figure 1).
Use the RS232C A port to connect directly to a computer serial port to browse to the NAE55. Use this port only for establishing a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) network connection. Refer to the Metasys System Extended
Architecture Direct Connection and Dial-Up Connection Application Note (LIT-1201639).
Important: Do not apply 24 VAC power to the NAE55
before installing the data protection battery. See the Installing the Data Protection
Battery section in this document.
Important: Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring
in accordance with local, national, and regional regulations.
Important: The NAE55 is a low-voltage (<30 VAC)
device. Do not exceed the NAE electrical ratings. Applying high voltage to the NAE may result in permanent damage to the NAE and void any warranties.
Use the RS232C B port to connect with a VT100 terminal or computer using a VT100 terminal emulator because the RS232C B port outputs the device IP address. Use this port only to obtain the NAE55 IP address at startup. Refer to the NAE Commissioning Guide (LIT-1201519).

Universal Serial Bus (USB) Ports

The two USB ports labeled USB A and USB B are both configured as masters and are independent of each other. Use the USB A port to connect an optional external modem. Refer to the NAE Commissioning Guide (LIT-1201519) for more information on external modems.

Ethernet Port

The Ethernet port, labeled ETHERNET, is an 8-pin RJ-45 network port for connecting the NAE55 to Ethernet networks. NAE55 engines can connect to Ethernet networks at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps.
On MS-NIE55xx-x models, use the Ethernet port for migration of N1 communications. Refer to the N1 Migration with the NIE Technical Bulletin (LIT-1201535).

Optional Internal Modem

MS-NAE55x1-x and MS-NIE55x1-x models have an internal modem and a 6-pin RJ-12 modular jack labeled MODEM. Connect a standard phone line plug and cable to the to use the internal modem.
For information on commissioning an internal modem, refer to the NAE Commissioning Guide (LIT-1201519).

Wiring the NAE55/NIE55

Mount the NAE55 securely before wiring it. Follow these guidelines when wiring the NAE55:
Important: Do not apply 24 VAC power to the NAE
before completing and checking connections. Short circuits or improperly connected wires may result in permanent damage to the equipment.
Important: Do not remove the terminal block keys. The
terminal block plugs and the terminal sockets are keyed to fit together in the correct configuration only.
Important: Prevent any static electric discharge to the
NAE. Static electric discharge can damage the NAE and void any warranties.
Route the supply power wires and communication cables at least 50 mm (2 in.) away from the vent slots in the sides of the NAE55 housing.
Provide slack in the wires and cables. Keep cables routed neatly around the NAE55 to promote good ventilation, LED visibility, and ease of service.
Note: Ensure that the building automation network wiring
meets the specifications, rules, and guidelines in the Wiring Considerations and Guidelines for
Network Integrations section.
To wire the NAE55:
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45, 8-pin Ethernet port shown in Figure 1.
2. Connect the Building Automation System (BAS) network cables to the appropriate ports.
For N2 or MS/TP networks, connect the 3-wire
bus cable to one of the removable 4-terminal plugs labeled FA A or FC B (Figure 5).
For LONWORKS compatible networks, connect the
2-wire cable from the LONWORKS network trunk to th removable 3-terminal plug labeled LON (Figure
6).
Note: If an N2 Bus or MS/TP Bus is connected
to the NAE55, you must set the NAE55 EOL switches to the proper positions. See the Setting the End-of-the-Line Switches section.
5NAE55/NIE55 Installation Instructions
3. If using a modem, connect a telephone line to the modem port or connect an external modem to the USB A as necessary.

and Wiring Connections
Figure 7: 24 VAC Supply Power Wiring
4. Make connections to the RS-232 serial ports (if necessary).
5. Connect the 24 VAC supply power wires from the transformer to the removable power terminal block plug (Figure 7).
Power supply wire colors may be different on transformers not manufactured by Johnson Controls. Follow the transformer manufacturer’s instructions and the project installation drawings.
The 24 VAC power should be connected to all network devices so transformer phasing is uniform across the devices. Powering network devices with uniform 24 VAC supply power phasing reduces noise, interference, and ground loop problems.
The NAE55 does not require an earth ground connection.

Setup and Adjustments

Installing the Data Protection Battery

Important: Do not apply 24 VAC power to the NAE55
before installing the data protection battery.
To install the data protection battery:
1. Remove the battery from its packaging. Remove the battery cover on the NAE55 to expose the battery compartment (Figure 1).
2. Carefully plug the NAE55 battery connector from the battery compartment into the connector on the battery cable (Figure 9).
3. Place the battery into the compartment (Figure 9).
4. Slide one end of the battery strap into the hole on the opposite side of the strap (Figure 9), and loop the strap tightly around the battery to minimize battery movement.
5. Replace the cover of the battery compartment.
6. Apply 24 VAC power to the NAE55 immediately.
Important: The data protection battery must
maintain a small residual charge. The battery ships from the factory with a small residual charge. You should connect 24 VAC power to the NAE55 immediately after connecting the battery to ensure that the battery does not completely lose its charge, which may damage the battery.
Note: The 24 VAC power to the NAE55 charges the
data protection battery. At initial startup, the battery requires a charging period of at least 2 hours before it supports data protection if power fails. Maximum protection (up to three consecutive power failures without recharging time) requires a 24-hour charging period.

Setting the End-of-the-Line Switches

The network devices at each end of an FC Bus segment must be set as network terminated devices. The NAE55 has two EOL switches (one for each FC Bus) that enable you to set the NAE55 as a network terminated device on the bus.
To set an NAE55 as an FC Bus terminated device, position the switch on the EOL switch block to the ON position (Figure 8).
Figure 8: FC Bus EOL Switch in the Factory Default
ON (Up) Position
Note: The NAE55 is shipped with the EOL switches for
both FC Buses in the initial factory position, ON (Figure 8). If the NAE55 is not a terminated device on the FC Bus, reposition the switch on the EOL switch block to the Off (down) position.
Set the EOL switches appropriately for the FC A and FC B buses. The NAE55 follows the same rules as other switch-terminating devices listed in the Setting Terminations sections of the N2 Communications Bus
Technical Bulletin (LIT-636018) and the MS/TP Communications Bus Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011034).

Powering on the NAE55

After applying 24 VAC power, the NAE55 requires approximately 3 minutes to start up and become operational. See the LED Test Sequence at Startup section.
Startup is complete and the NAE55 is operational when the (green) RUN LED is On steady and the (red) GEN FAULT LED is Off. See Figure 10 for LED locations.

Disconnecting Power from the NAE55

Important: The data protection battery must be installed
and charged before disconnecting the 24 VAC supply power.
The 24 VAC supply power is disconnected from the NAE55 by removing the terminal block plug from the power terminal port on the NAE55 (Figure 7).
When the 24 VAC supply power to the NAE55 is disconnected or lost, the NAE55 is nonoperational. The POWER LED (Figure 10) remains On, and the data protection battery continues to power the NAE55 for approximately 1 to 3 minutes so that volatile data can be backed up in nonvolatile memory. The POWER LED goes Off when the data backup is completed.
9NAE55/NIE55 Installation Instructions
Figure 9: NAE55 and NAE55 Data Protection Battery

Troubleshooting

LED Status Indicators

The NAE55 has LEDs to indicate power and communication status. See Figure 10 and Table 7.

LED Test Sequence at Startup

During startup, the NAE55 automatically initiates an LED test to verify the operational status of the LEDs. Immediately after connecting supply power, the following LED lighting sequence occurs:
1. The NAE55 emits one short beep, indicating that the BIOS startup was successful.
2. The PEER COM, RUN, and GENL FAULT LEDs turn on, indicating that the Operating System (OS) is booting up. For NAE55 models, the FC A and FC B LEDs also turn on.
3. The PEER COM, RUN, GENL FAULT LEDs, and the FC A and FC B LEDs (on NAE55 models) shut off. The RUN LED flashes to indicate that the NAE55 software is loading.
4. The LEDs display the operational status of the NAE55. When the RUN LED goes On Steady, the operating system and Metasys application are running and the NAE55 is ready.
The total time to start up the NAE55 depends on the size of the database and can take several minutes.
Figure 10: NAE55 with LED Designations

System Re-Boot Switch

The System Re-Boot switch (Figure 1) forces a manual restart of the NAE55 processor. All data changes made to the system since the last time the NAE55 saved data are lost on restart, including alarm, trend, and audit trail data.
Note: Press the System Re-Boot switch only if the
NAE55 fails to respond and cannot be accessed by any user device. Do not press the System Re-Boot switch unless you have tried other reasonable means to fix the problem.
