Auto Configuration





IMPORTANT: The device will not activate the BACnet interface until the baud rate and the MS/TP MAC
address are configured. If an active RS485 network is not available, configure the device using the Setup
Menu (documented in the User’s Guide).

Access the auto configuration wizard by removing the front cover and
pressing the ▼, ◆, and ▲ buttons for one second. After the wizard activates,
the display will show

The wizard automatically advances between each step after a few seconds.
Pressing the ◆ button also advances the wizard.

The baud rate value can usually be detected from existing
network activity. If no baud rate could be detected, the display
will show
rate before advancing.

The device detects the smallest free MAC address on the local
MS/TP subnet from existing network activity. If the installation
requires a specific MAC address, use ▼ and ▲ to override the detected address. If the wizard
detects that the selected MAC address conflicts with another device, it automatically advances
to the next smallest free MAC address.

After the wizard completes, the device saves the baud rate and MS/TP MAC address. Additionally, the
device adds 665000 to the selected MAC address and saves the resulting sum as the device object ID. If the
object ID conflicts with another device on the network, use
unique object ID.

The BACnet interface becomes active immediately after the wizard completes. To re-configure the baud
rate and MAC address, use the Setup Menu or run the wizard again.

Returns the current ambient temperature. This value is an average of ambient temperature
readings (see AI 1). The averaging time is configurable (see AV 7).

AI 1 Temperature (unsmoothed)

Returns the most recent ambient temperature reading. The value is compensated according to
the user calibration (see AV 5 and AV 6). On models with the Humidity Sensor feature, the
humidity sensor module provides ambient temperature readings. On other models, the
internal thermistor provides ambient temperature readings.

AI 2 Minimum Temperature

Returns the lowest ambient temperature recorded since this value was reset. This value is reset
when written, and when the device restarts.

AI 3 Maximum Temperature

Returns the highest ambient temperature recorded since this value was reset. This value is
reset when written, and when the device restarts.

AI 4 Relative Humidity

Returns the current relative humidity. This value is an average of relative humidity readings
(see AI 5). The averaging time is configurable (see AV 10).

This object is only valid in models with the Humidity Sensor feature.

when the measured value is greater than the threshold. When the polarity is active low, the
relay will activate when the measured value is lower than the threshold.

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu.

Default: 800. The units vary with the current selected measurement source (see MSV 4). This
parameter is saved in the device configuration.

AQ Series BACnet Protocol Guide Page 13 of 20 154-0012-0E

AV 24 Internal Relay Program Hysteresis

When the relay comparison polarity (see MSV 5) is active high, the turn-off threshold is found
by subtracting the hysteresis from the turn-on threshold. When the relay comparison polarity
is active low, the turn-off threshold is found by adding the hysteresis to the turn-on threshold.

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu.

Default: 100. The units vary with the current selected measurement source (see MSV 4). This
parameter is saved in the device configuration.

MSV 0 Display Selection

Selects the set of measurements for display. If more than one measurement is selected, each
measurement displays in rotation. The Display Rotate Time (see AV 4) controls how long each
measurement is displayed before switching.

Possible values:

1. Display Off

2. User Selection

3. Temperature Only

4. Relative Humidity Only

5. Temperature and Relative Humidity

6. CO2 Only

7. Temperature And CO2

8. Relative Humidity and CO2

9. Temperature, Relative Humidity, and CO2

10. Dew Point Only

11. Set Point Only

When the value is “User Selection”, the user can change the set of selected measurements with
 in the User Menu (see the User’s Guide). Any other value overrides the user’s selection.

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu.

Default: User Selection. This parameter is saved in the device configuration.

MSV 1 Display Temperature Units

Defines the units when the device displays ambient temperature or dew point temperature.
Also controls the units when editing parameters using the LCD menu system.

Possible values:

1. User Selection

2. Degrees Fahrenheit

3. Degrees Celsius

AQ Series BACnet Protocol Guide Page 18 of 20 154-0012-0E

This parameter does not affect the unit system of temperature values read or written through
BACnet (see MSV 2).

When the value is “User Selection”, the user can change the temperature display units with 
in the User Menu (see the User’s Guide). Any other value overrides the user’s selection.

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu.

Default: User Selection. This parameter is saved in the device configuration.

MSV 2 BACnet Temperature Units

Controls the units used for reading and writing ambient temperature and dew point
temperature values through BACnet objects. The selection can be verified by reading the
“Units of Measure” property of any affected object (e.g. AI 0, Temperature).

Possible values:

1. Degrees Fahrenheit

2. Degrees Celsius

This parameter does not affect the units of temperatures displayed on the device (see MSV 1).
This parameter can only be set through BACnet.

Default: Degrees Fahrenheit. This parameter is saved in the device configuration.

MSV 3 User Set Point Units

Controls the units when the device displays the current set point value. Because set point
values are interpreted by the external control system, the device uses the selected units for
display only.

Possible values:

1. Disabled

2. No Units (value only)

3. Degrees Fahrenheit

4. Degrees Celsius

5. Relative Humidity (%RH)

6. Parts Per Million (ppm)

7. Pounds per Square Inch (psi)

8. Kilopascals (kPa)

9. Inches of Water Column (“WC)

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu.

Default: Degrees Fahrenheit. This parameter is saved in the device configuration.

MSV 4 Internal Relay Program Source

Selects a measurement source for the internal relay threshold comparison (see BO 0).

Possible values:

1. Disabled

2. Temperature

3. Temperature (unsmoothed)

4. Relative Humidity

5. Relative Humidity (unsmoothed)

6. Dew Point Temperature

7. Dew Point Temperature (unsmoothed)

AQ Series BACnet Protocol Guide Page 19 of 20 154-0012-0E

8. CO2 Concentration

9. CO2 Concentration (unsmoothed)

10. User Set Point

If the selected measurement source is invalid, the internal relay comparison will be disabled.
NULL will be written to the corresponding entry in the commandable priority array.

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu, with additional options.

Default: CO2 Concentration. This parameter is saved in the device configuration.

MSV 5 Internal Relay Program Polarity

Sets the polarity of the internal relay threshold comparison.

1. Active High

2. Active Low

When the polarity is active high, the relay (see BO 0) will activate when the selected
measurement is greater than the threshold value (see AV 23). When the polarity is active low,
the relay will activate when the measured value is lower than the threshold value.

This parameter is equivalent to  in the Setup Menu.

Default: Active High. This parameter is saved in the device configuration.
