MAXIMUM CABLE LENGTHS
The total combined cable length of a SMART-Net™ from the controller, including any daisy­chained SSs, to the final SS should not exceed 80 meters (250 ft). The actual maximum functional network length can vary based on the type of cable used. For longer networks and total cable length, use appropriate data cable with a lower resistance and capacitance per meter (foot). Installing one or more SSX modules will also increase the number of SSs and total cable distance that can be installed (further details on the SSX are supplied later in this section).
The following formulas can be used to calculate the maximum length of selected cable.

Poor modular connector installation, high-resistance connections or excessive cable length may cause the SMART-Net communication. If this occurs, a Power Lo message may appear on the screen of the affected SS-L. On an SS model with no LCD screen, the Test LED will remain solid off when connected if it does not have sufficient voltage.
The recommended wire type is Category 3 or 5, 24AWG solid core. This allows the flexibility of connecting RJ11 crimp connectors, but still works well for the terminal blocks.

The use of the flat satin cable is not advised unless kept to a short distance. This wire is typically 28 AWG and is not designed for longer distance runs.
SMART-SENSOR EXPANSION BOARD (SSX)
Each SMART-Sensor™ expansion board (SSX) provides five expansion ports that can be used as a central hub for field installed SSs. A centrally located SSX may reduce the wiring length to individual SSs, resulting in more robust and error free communication.
Additionally, each SSX can be connected to an external power source for the purpose of boosting the power to connected SSs, allowing the combined overall cable length of a SMART-Net
to be maximized.

Ground yourself before touching the device to avoid damaging the electronics. Touch a grounded metal surface to discharge static electricity.
Do not use conductors larger than 24 AWG (0.25 mm2) to facilitate the proper installation of an RJ11 modular connector at the host controller.
Do not mount the SS above, or on the surface of heat-producing sources, below cooling sources, near windows, behind obstructions, or in areas prone to infiltration. When mounted in or on hollow walls, ensure that the electrical box and penetration is insulated and/or the backplate is mounted to an insulated subbase to prevent drafts external to the space from influencing the onboard thermistor.
RJ11 connectors for stranded and solid core conductors are not interchangeable. Using the wrong connector will cause intermittent communication. The appropriate connector for stranded conductors will have teeth on the gold plates that pierce the wire (this can be seen by looking at the side of the connector closely). Connectors for solid core wires have a single jaw that wraps around the solid conductor.

OPERATOR INTERFACE
Operator Interface for the SS-L
The SMART-Sensor™ LCD (SS-L) allows for the display and adjustment of ten point values
®
from its SMART-Net host, which can be any Reliable Controls
MACH-System controller except a SMART-Space Controller (SSC). The SMART-Space controller does not support SMART-Net.
An SS-L can display points from networked controllers other than its SMART-Net host, however those points cannot be adjusted by an operator using the SS-L buttons. If the SMART-Net host is a BACnet only device (e.g., MACH-ProZone, MACH-ProAir), then any network points to be displayed must be entered using BACnet references. If the SMART­Net host supports Reliable Controls Protocol (RCP), then any network points to be displayed must be entered using RCP references.
Navigation through the configured LCD display screens and operator interaction with the point values are both performed using the custom silicone rubber three button keypad. The standard functionality of the buttons is outlined in Table 8.

DISPLAY MODES
IDLE/DEFAULT MODE
The SS-L LCD has three main display modes: Idle (the default), Quick-adjust, and Display point.
Idle mode is the SS-L's default screen display. If there has not been any button activity on
the SS-L for 20 seconds, the display will automatically revert to the default screen.
The default screen displays the present value of the point or object configured in row number one of the SS-L worksheet in the center (or middle row) of the LCD.
Any points or objects configured to appear as an icon will be displayed in the bottom row of the default LCD screen.
FIGURE 53: SS-L IDLE MODE DISPLAYING POINT DESCRIPTOR
SECONDARY POINT
If the secondary point is enabled in the SMART-Sensor Setup dialog box, the present value of the point or object configured as the secondary point will be displayed in the top row of the default LCD together with the programmed two-character abbreviation.

QUICK-ADJUST MODE
The SSL's Quick-adjust mode allows for easy operator adjustment of a setpoint.
When the SSL LCD is in Idle mode (displaying the default screen), pressing either the or button will cause the SSL to go into Quick-adjust mode.
In Quick-adjust mode, the SS-L displays the present value for the point or object configured in row number two of the SMART-Sensor worksheet. The display blinks to indicate that the value can be modified. Pressing the or button further will decrease or increase the point value, typically a setpoint. After the desired adjustment is complete, the display will continue to flash briefly until the value is communicated to the controller.
After 20 seconds have elapsed without further button interaction, the display will revert to the Idle mode. Alternatively, after the setpoint has been adjusted, the operator can advance to the next point or object by pressing the button.

SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING
The SMART-Sensor™ LCD (SS-L) is custom configurable to display/adjust up to ten point values from the host MACH-System controller. An SS-L can display points from networked controllers other than its SMART-Net™ host, however those points cannot be adjusted by an operator using the SS-L buttons. If the SMART-Net™ host is a BACnet only device (e.g., MACH-ProZone™, MACH-ProAir™), then any network points to be displayed must be entered using BACnet references. If the SMART-Net™ host supports Reliable Controls Protocol (RCP), then any network points to be displayed must be entered using RCP references.
Software programming and configuration of an SS-L is performed using RC-Studio® 2.0, or higher.

VALUES DISPLAYED
The SMART-Sensor worksheet has ten rows. Each row (1–10) corresponds to the values that will be displayed on the LCD of the SS-L and the order in which they will appear.
The point or object that is defined to be displayed in row number one will be displayed when the SS-L is in Idle mode.
The point or object that is defined to be displayed in row number two is the quick-adjust point. If a user presses either the or button while the SS-L is in Idle mode, the present value of the point defined in row two will be displayed.
If the point or object in row two is set to Can Change in the User Edit column, when the value is accessed as the quick-adjust point, the value will be displayed flashing steadily and may be modified. If, however, the point or object is configured to Display Only in the User Edit column then the value will still be displayed and will still flash steadily, but the value will not be modified in the controller.
The SS-L only supports one decimal place. When the SS-L is configured for two decimals, the value will display properly in RC-Studio

CARBON DIOXIDE SENSOR OPTION (-CO2)
The CO2 sensor has replaced the duplex RJ11 jacks in -CO2 models
The backplate for -CO2 models has been made deeper than the standard backplate.
SMART-Sensor™ models with a CO2 sensor (SS-CO2) feature a 0–2000 PPM CO2 sensor that can accurately measure a space’s Carbon Dioxide levels within ±50 PPM. The CO
sensor has automatic
2
calibration built-in and only adds 2 mA current draw to the base model SS.
OVERVIEW
SMART-Sensor™ models with the -CO2 option have some significant differences from non­CO2 models, including:
The duplex RJ11 connection port on the rear of the sensor head has been
removed to make room for the CO
sensor,
2
A special backplate is included to compensate for the CO
sensor depth,
2
The backplate has a small hole and plastic grommet for wire penetration,
The SS-CO2 comes with both a manual and automatic calibration features,
and

Figure 68 indicates that the backplate for -CO2 models is noticeably thicker than the standard SS backplate thickness of 0.15 cm. Note the small grommet in the center of the backplate for wire penetration. This small opening will minimize unwanted drafts that may exude from a wall, especially when no insulation is present.
The mounting holes have been shifted 6 mm downwards compared to the original backplate, for better alignment. Alignment pilots are included to match the original backplate to facilitate drilling if required.

If unwanted air flow is entering the sensor from the wall cavity, the grommet may be sealed with silicone sealant at the wire penetration point. This will prevent airflow within the wall cavity from disturbing the reading. Silicone sealant outgassing will NOT damage the CO
sensor.

For applications where the CO
sensor is exposed to fresh air CO2 concentrations of 400

ppm at least once per week, the automatic calibration routine will calibrate the sensor to specification within about 3 weeks. For applications where the sensor is not exposed to 400 ppm concentrations at least once every two weeks, manual calibration may be carried out to increase final accuracy. Both automatic and manual calibration methods are described below.
Automatic calibration occurs once in the first 24 hours after a power cycle, and then recurs every two weeks thereafter. The lowest CO
value recorded during the cycle is compared
2
to 400 ppm, then the sensor is calibrated by the difference of the two values.

FIGURE 69: AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS
< Two Weeks >
If the lowest CO2 value recorded is 600 PPM, as shown in Figure 69, the sensor will be automatically calibrated down by 200 ppm (600 - 400). In other words, the calibration will offset all readings by minus 200.
The sensor must be exposed to fresh air at least once every two weeks for the automatic calibration algorithm to provide an accurate calibration. It doesn't matter when the fresh air will be sensed, just that it will be sensed at some point during the period.
In the above example, the lowest CO
value recorded by the sensor during the two-week
2
period was 600 ppm, resulting the sensor being automatically calibrated downwards by 200 ppm. If the lowest value recorded actually was 600 PPM, the sensor would be out of calibration by 200 ppm following execution of the automatic calibration algorithm. For applications such as continuously occupied rooms, or in densely populated cities, manual calibration will be required.
Manual calibration should be performed on the CO2 sensor whenever the lowest CO reading in the building does not drop to about 400 PPM at least once every two weeks.

The occupancy sensor installed in SMART-Sensors with the -OC option is capable of detecting many motion events in a short amount of time. The SS occupancy protocol was designed for setting the occupancy point (Point #5) as well as minimizing network traffic over SMART-Net after a fixed period of no motion. This fixed interval is referred to as ton (timer for minimum occupancy ON time) and has a default of 10 minutes.
After an initial detection of motion, the occupancy sensor is in a True state. This, in turn, sets the SS occupancy state and the controller occupancy state (Point #5) to a True state. Whenever the occupancy sensor state transitions to the True state, the ton timer is reset to the default. Whenever the occupancy sensor transitions to the False state, the ton timer starts timing down. The occupancy sensor state may change many times, but the SS occupancy state will remain True until the ton timer has counted down to zero following the last motion sensed.
The state of the occupancy can be set to Unoccupied or False by the controller at any time via Control-BASIC, or by manually adjusting Point #5 of the SMART-Sensor worksheet. Setting Point#5 to False resets the ton timer back to the default. The ton timer will remain at the default as long as the occupancy state is True and will start counting down to zero only after a False state is detected. For more details, see Product Bulletin #4294.

DUCT OPTION (-DUCT)

Duct width / 2
The SMART-Sensor™ with -DUCT option is capable of accurately reading air temperature flowing within a standard air duct. But, to do so, the proper model with the appropriate probe length should be chosen. The best model to choose will be the model with the tip of the probe as close to the centerline of the duct as possible.
The simplest way to calculate the probe length needed is by taking the depth of the duct and dividing by two. For instance, a 16 inch duct (as measured from the probe penetration point to the oposite wall) would need an 8 inch probe. See Table 3 on page 20 number details.

Last Panel is a software parameter used to facilitate efficient token passing on RCP networks only. On RCP networks, the controller with the highest physical address (RCP address) should be configured as the Last Panel. This Last Panel setting will remind the controller to return the token to the controller with the lowest physical address. If later expansion causes controllers to be added to the network and higher physical addresses to be used, the Last Panel parameter will have to be modified to ---- in the device that no longer has the highest physical address and set to Last in the new controller with the highest physical address.
BACnet MS/TP networks do no utilize Last Panel to facilitate the token-passing scheme
®
implemented for communication. For this reason, on BACnet
networks, it is recommended
that Last Panel not be used. Therefore, no controllers would be configured as Last but all would be configured with a value of ---- for the LAST parameter.
Changes to the MSet Set-Up parameters are initially stored in the buffer of the SS-L only. To send the changes to the controller, UPDATE must be set to Yes. After the configuration parameters are sent to the controller, the controller must reboot to commit the changes. Do not unplug the SS-L, press any of the buttons or make any further modifications after the UPDATE value has been set to Yes until it automatically resets to No.
For best practice, provide a couple of seconds for the SS-L buffer to properly parse each configuration parameter modification before committing the changes to the controller by setting UPDATE to Yes.

The SS-L onboard Flow Tool can be used to perform standard Test and Balance airflow
calibration of MACH-Air the base standard Reliable Controls
controllers used in variable air volume (VAV) applications utilizing
®
pan file.
The Flow Tool accesses pre-configured variables (VARs) in the standard pan file provided
in all MACH-Air need for RC-Studio
controllers. These VARs may then be modified using the SS-L without a

in Figure 76 and Table 19.
FIGURE 76: SS-L FLOW TOOL WORKSHEET IN THE STANDARD PAN FILE IN ALL MACH-AIRCONTROLLERS
The SSL onboard Flow Tool requires a pre-configured SS-L profile and several VARs that are all featured in the Reliable Controls
®
standard MACH-Air™ and MACH-ProAir™ pan files.
For proper calibration using the Flow Tool, this pan file should be used.
In the standard MACH-Air display configuration is pre-configured in Sensor-5 of the SMART-Sensor a functional SS-L address for a MACH-(Pro)Air

Use the button to step to the FLOW point on the SS-L and wait until the displayed calculated flow stabilizes near the FL-OVR setting.
FIGURE 81: SS-L FLOW POINT
9 For best practice, verify the total actual flow by measuring the airflow through
each connected distribution outlet using an accurate balancing hood again. If the difference between the actual total measured airflow and calculated total airflow displayed by the SS-L is outside of the specified or acceptable limits (5%
- 10% typical), repeat steps 5–8.
1 0 If it is necessary to balance or test the VAV box at the configured minimum
airflow setpoint, repeat steps 2–4 using the minimum airflow setpoint for the FL­OVR value.
The actual total measured airflow with the box operating at the minimum flow setpoint may be measured. However, do not re-calibrate the K-factor based upon the minimum airflow setting. The flow transducer is more accurate at higher air velocity.
1 1
Set the FL-OVR point value back to 0 to allow the MACH-Air programmed operation.
1 2 The calibration procedure is now complete.
A typical value for the K-factor of a MACH-Air™/MACH-ProAir™ is from 0.5 to 1.5. If the calculated value is outside of this range, there is likely a problem. Most airflow pickups amplify the differential pressure to allow for a better resolution of the signal by the differential pressure transducer. For this reason, the constant multiplier K is usually < 1.0 in order to remove the amplification.
