COMMUNICATIONS

MAC ADDRESS: 1

BAUD RATE: 38400

MAX MASTER: 127

To set parameters for BACnet MS/TP EIA-485 communications, press:

1.Up/Down to move among entries.

2.Enter to select.

NOTE: The Max Master is the highest MAC address a device will attempt to locate when polling for master devices on the local network. To avoid possible communication issues with the network or a computer connected through a KMD- 5576 USB Communicator, the Max Master number should be the lowest number needed for that network.

(Advanced) Date/Time

DATE/TIME DATE: APRIL 11 2009 TIME: 1:43:59 PM UTC OFFSET: 300 DST ENABLE: TRUE DST AUTO: TRUE DST START:

To enter date and time information, press:

1.Up/Down to move among entries.

2.Enter to select.

3.Right/Left to move among value fields.

4.Up/Down to increment/decrement value.

For areas that observe Daylight Saving Time, select True/On for DST ENABLE.

If the FlexStat is used in a BACnet network with UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) synchronization (via broadcasting or addressing a single thermostat) set the UTC Offset value. The UTC Offset value is in minutes and corresponds to the distance of the local time zone to the zero degree meridian. In stand-alone operation or networks that do not have UTC broad- casts, setting this value is not necessary.

Sample Time Zones

Offset to Equal UTC

 

 

Alaska

9 hours = 540 minutes

USA/Canada Pacific

8 hours = 480 minutes

Standard Time

 

USA/Canada Mountain

7 hours = 420 minutes

Standard Time

 

USA/Canada Central

6 hours = 360 minutes

Standard Time

 

USA/Canada Eastern

5 hours = 300 minutes

Standard Time

 

Bolivia, Chile

4 hours = 240 minutes

Argentina, Uruguay

3 hours = 180 minutes

United Kingdom,

0 hours = 0 minutes

Portugal

 

Europe (most countries)

–1 hours = –60minutes

Egypt, Israel, Turkey

–2 hours = –120minutes

Kuwait, Saudi Arabia

–3 hours = –180minutes

United Arab Emirates

–4 hours = –240minutes

India, Sri Lanka

–5.5 hours = –330minutes

China, Mongolia

–8 hours = –480minutes

Korea, Japan

–9 hours = –540minutes

New Zealand

–12 hours = –720minutes

NOTE: The BACnet standard for this offset value is: “The time zones to the west of the zero degree meridian shall be positive values, and those to the east shall be negative values.” The value is in minutes, not hours.
