CHAPTER 4:
4.1 Wiring ProtoNode RER to RS-485 Field Protocol (BACnet MS/TP
or Metasys N2)
Connect BAS BACnet MS/TP or Metasys N2 RS-485 port to the 3-pin RS-485 connector on
ProtoNode RER as shown below.
Figure 4-1: Connection from ProtoNode to RS-485 Field Protocol
– BACnet MS/TP
NOTE
See Section 5 for information on connecting ProtoNode RER to
BACnet/IP network.
If the ProtoNode is the last device on the BACnet MS/TP or Metasys N2 trunk or if
using an RS232 to RS485 converter, then the End-Of-Line Terminator may need to
be enabled (See Figure 4-2). It is disabled by default.
