SECTION 5: COMMUNICATIONS

5.5 Communications Between Multiple ROBERTS GORDON® ULTRAVAC™ Controllers

If more than one ROBERTS GORDON® ULTRA- VAC™ Controller is installed in a building, the controllers’ RS-485 communications must be wired in series. See Page 25, Figure 18. Connect the RS-485 terminal on controller #1 to the RS-485 terminal on controller #2 and so on in a daisy chain fashion. For communication cable requirements, See Page 12, Section 3.3.5

From a PC, by dialing into the modem on controller #1 or by connecting to controller #1 via RS-485 converter or TCP/IP communication module, the

system status and settings can be viewed for any of the controllers on the network.

The control board identification dip switch must be set on each ROBERTS GORDON® ULTRAVAC™ Controller. See Page 25, Figure 18 for dip switch settings. Contact Roberts-Gordon or your ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor, if more than 20 controllers are connected.
