Installation
Installation
This section provides important instructions and guidelines for installing the
KMD-1101/1121 NetSensors. These boards are designed for use with KMD-5500
and KMD-6000 series controllers.
Carefully review this information prior to attempting installation.
Note:
Preliminary wiring to each sensor location should be completed prior to actual
sensor installation. (This includes the installation of the appropriate mounting
base.) If wiring is not completed, finish that first. Mounting backplates are
available from KMC. (See the appropriate datasheet for accessories.)
To install the NetSensor unit:
1. Turn the Allen screws in the base of the Netsensor clockwise until they clear
the cover then swing the sensor away from the backplate to remove it.
2. Feed the RJ–12 cable through the mounting base.
3. Secure the mounting base to the backplate or the 2” x 4” outlet box with
the Allen screws toward the floor.
4. If the pig-tail leads are being used, connect them to the wires coming from
the wall mount as indicated in the site wiring diagram. Be sure to protect
bare wires with suitable insulating material.
5. Insert the RJ– 12 cable coming from the base into the NetSensor.
6. Place the top of the NetSensor over the top of the mounting base and swing
it down over the Allen screw brackets. Be careful not to pinch any wiring.
7. Back the Allen screws out of the brackets until they engage the NetSensor
cover and hold it in place.
Operation
Controls and Indicators
The following sections describe the controls and indicators found on the
NetSensor.
Display
The display contains four .375-inch, 7-segment LEDs that are visible across a
normal size office. The display can be programmed to remain on constantly, or to
turn off after a set time period. (Refer to the KMD Applications Manual for
programming instructions.)

Controls
PC Port
The KMD-1101/1121 NetSensors include a total of nine pushbuttons; seven of
which are user programmable. The actual operation of the programmable buttons will depend on the program assigned to the device.
The remaining two buttons will adjust the value (up or down) if this function is
enabled in the programming. Values can be changed for all buttons (if programmed) except the #1 button as follows:
1. Press the button for the desired function.
2. Adjust the value up or down.
The NetSensor is equipped with a PC Port. This port provides a RS–485 connection to the digital network that is accessible by a PC. The port is located beneath
the flip door on the side of the controller.
To use this port:
1. Open the flip door on the front of the controller.
2. Connect the keyed, flat end of the KMD-5624 NetSensor to PC cable to the
port on the NetSensor.
3. Connect the RJ–11 end of the cable to device that converts the RS–485
signal from the NetSensor into an RS–232 signal.
Note:
The KMD-5557 Computer Interface or the KMD-5559 CommTalk are suitable
for this purpose.
4. Connect a suitable cable (such as the KMD-5625) from the interface to the
computer’s serial port.
You should have normal access to the network provided the PC has the proper
software application installed and the serial port is configured properly.
