Changing Terminator Switch Settings

The terminator switch for the RS-485 “TO MONITORS” connector is shipped from the factory in the terminated or “IN” position. This is the correct setting if the ADM800 is connected to only one AGM300, or if it is the last device on a network chain. If the ADM800 is being installed in the middle of a network, the terminator must be moved to the “OUT” position. Refer to Multiple AGM's on Page 12.

The terminator switch for the RS-485 “TO HOST” connector is shipped from the factory in the terminated or “IN” position. This is the correct setting if the ADM800 is the last device on the network chain. If other devices are daisy chained through the ADM800, the terminator must be moved to the “OUT” position. Refer to Connecting to a Building Management System on Page 12.

Locate each terminator switch and determine its position. If it needs to be moved, carefully slide the switch to the proper position.
