data sheet for router specic information on the
web at kmccontrols.com.
INSTALL CONTROLLER
NOTE: Complete steps 1–2 to install the
router with screws.
Complete steps 3–7 to install the
router on a 35 mm DIN rail.
NOTE: Install the router in a metal UL
approved energy management
equipment panel.
1. Position the router so the removable color
coded terminal blocks 1 are easy to access
for wiring.
NOTE: The black terminals are for power. The
gray terminals are for communication.
NOTE: Complete steps 3–7 to install the
router on a 35 mm DIN rail.
3. Position the DIN rail 3 so that when the
router is installed the color coded terminal
blocks are easy to access for wiring.
4. Pull out one of the DIN Latch 4 until it clicks
once.
5. Position the router so the top tab 5 of the
DIN release rests on the DIN rail.
6. Lower the router against the DIN rail.
7. Push in both DIN Latch 4 to engage the DIN
rail.
NOTE: To remove the router, pull the DIN
Latch until it clicks once and lift the

NOTE: For principles and good practices
when connecting an MS/TP network,
see Planning BACnet Networks
(Application Note AN0404A).
SELECT END OF LINE (EOL)
NOTE: The EOL switch is shipped from KMC
in the OFF position.
14. If the router is at either end of a BACnet MS/TP
network, turn the EOL switch 8 to ON.
NOTE: The Ethernet cable should be a CAT 5
or better and a maximum of 328 feet
(100 meters) between devices.
CONNECT BACNET MS/TP NETWORK
9. Wire the network to the gray BACnet MS/TP
terminal block 7.
7
8
NOTE: 18 gauge AWG shielded twisted pair
cable with maximum capacitance of 51
picofarads per foot (0.3 meters) for all
network wiring (Belden cable #82760 or
equivalent).
CONNECT POWER
NOTE: Follow all local regulations and wiring
codes.
NOTE: Use either shielded connecting cables
or enclose all cables in conduit to
maintain RF emissions specications.
NOTE: Connect a 24 VAC, Class-2 transformer
capable of supplying 8 VA to the black
power terminal block 9 of the router.
15. Connect the neutral side of the transformer to
the router's common terminal ⊥ 10.
16. Connect the AC phase side of the transformer
to the router's phase terminal ∼ 11.
10
10. Connect the –A terminals in parallel with all
other –A terminals on the network.
11. Connect the +B terminals in parallel with all
other +B terminals on the network.
12. Connect the shields of the cable together at
each device using a wire nut or the S terminal
on the controllers.
13. Connect the cable shield to a good earth
ground at one end only.

12
AMBER BACnet MS/TP COMM LED
The amber COMM LED flashes at a one-half-
13
second rate when looking for other devices to
pass the token.
The amber COMM LED flickers as it receives
and passes the token over the BACnet MS/TP
network.
The amber Ethernet LED flashes when the
router is communicating with the network.
The amber Ethernet LED is OFF when the
controller is communicating with the network
at 10 Mbps.

ROUTER SET UP
Set up and conguration of the router is done
through a web browser (Internet Explorer version
9 or later or an HTML5 supported web browser)
using the routers IP address (192.168.111.252).
Refer to the Router Application Guide for more
conguration information.

The Ethernet status LEDs indicate network
connection and communication speed.
NOTE: If neither the green Ethernet LED
nor the amber Ethernet LED is ON,
check the power and network cable
connections.
