Startup & Commissioning
Commissioning the system correctly is one of the most important steps in getting the sys-
tem installed and functioning with the least amount of problems and in the shortest length
of time.
Procedures
The following is a list of items and reminders that are essential to the successful commis-
sioning of your system. Some of these items have already been discussed in this manual
and are repeated to confirm correct procedures. Familiarize yourself with this installation
manual and system wiring diagrams before installing!
1) Check to see if you have all the correct components for your installation.
2) Establish the location for the Zone Manager first. This is where your commu-
nication cable will begin for the Basic System.
3) Layout your communication wiring per the instructions in the previous por-
tion of this manual.
4) The communications loop originates at the Zone Manager. All Zone Control-
lers are connected to this loop.
Tip: Using the Auto-Zone color-coded and labeled Communication Cable en-
sures a quality installation.
5) Always refer to the Basic System Wiring Diagrams for specific wiring de-
tails. Communication cable must always be shielded – no exceptions!
6) Mount controllers in appropriate locations according to their operating speci-
fication.
7) Use the Basic System Worksheet included in the back of this section or the
ones included with the submittal package to document unit location, descrip-
tions, addressing, and setup. Address controllers according to location and ad-
dressing instructions located in this system manual.
