MicroNet BACnet
Unitary Controller
Installation Instructions
Application
The I/A Series® MicroNet™ BACnet® Unitary Controller is an interoperable controller
with native BACnet, IP, and MS/TP communications
support. The controller features Sensor Link (S-Link) support, LED status and output indication, screw terminal blocks, as well as a
panel mount sub-base with removable electronics module.
When programmed using WorkPlace Tech Tool, the Unitary Controller provides a wide range of control strategies for packaged rooftop, heat pump, fan coil, unit ventilator, and similar applications.

Precautions
When installing the MNB 300 controller, be sure to follow the guidelines outlined in “Precautions” on page 4.
Location
The MNB-300 controller is suitable for indoor use only. The mounting location must clear the maximum dimensions of the controller case and allow sufficient clearance for access to wiring terminals.
Caution:
•Avoid locations where excessive moisture, corrosive fumes, vibration, or explosive vapors are present.
•Avoid electrical noise interference. Do not install near large contactors, electrical machinery, or welding equipment.
• Locate where ambient temperatures do not exceed 140°F (60°C) or fall below -40°F (-40°C) and relative humidity does not exceed 85% or fall below 5%, noncondensing.

Mounting
2
Mount the controller to the wall according to Figure 2.
Warning: Electrical shock hazard! Disconnect power before installing or removing the cover.
1Select a mounting location. The MNB-300 may be panelmounted or, optionally, enclosure-mounted. To panelmount the MNB-300, go to Step 2. To mount the MNB-300 inside optional Enclosure MNB-300-ENC, go to Step 3.
Note: The MNB-300 may be mounted in any orientation.
2To mount the MNB-300 to a panel, proceed as follows:
a.Holding the controller's base plate in position, mark the locations of the four mounting holes on the panel.
b.Set the base plate aside and drill the marked mounting holes, using a drill bit sized to the mounting screws.
c.Secure the base plate to the panel, using four #10 screws (not supplied).
4 Be sure the input and output boards are spread apart as far as possible. If needed, loosen the four thumb screws by turning them CCW and then reposition the boards.
5Position the controller onto the base plate.

3 Optional To mount the MNB-300 inside Enclosure MNB-300-ENC, proceed as follows:
a. Separate the enclosure cover from the enclosure base.
b. Holding the enclosure's base in position on the wall, mark the locations of the four mounting holes.
c. Set the enclosure base aside and drill the marked mounting holes, using a drill bit sized to the mounting screws.
d. Secure the enclosure base to the wall, using four #10 screws (not supplied).
e. Mount the controller's base plate onto the four threaded studs on the enclosure's base. Secure the base plate, using four #6-32 nuts (provided).
f. Continue at Step 4.
