RD2402D SERIES
Installation & Operation Instructions Phone: [phone]
Website: workaci.com
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT IN ANY SAFETY RELATED APPLICATIONS WHERE HUMAN LIFE
MAY BE AFFECTED.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The RD2402D is an output module that works with the MOD9200 series network transceivers to output two (2)
wireless digital signals (dry contact) for wireless control of modulating actuators or wireless status indications. The
network transceiver receives the wireless signal from the sensor/input concentrator and that data is sent to the
BAS via RS-485. If the BAS determines an action is needed, it then sends the command to the transceiver and the
transceiver sends that command wirelessly to the RD2402D, which then outputs a digital signal.
The maximum radio transmission distance is dependent on the building type. In a typical commercial
building with steel I-Beam construction, concrete oors with reinforcing rod, and metal stud walls, it can be
expected that transmissions will penetrate horizontally approximately 200-300 feet of oor, walls, furniture
and air.
Generally, a wireless system will cover at least three oors–one oor above, and one oor below the receiver
location. In some buildings with favorable transmission characteristics the system may cover more oors -
see FIGURE 2, p.2. Wireless sensor transmitters should be installed within 200 to 300 feet of the RM2432D
receiver.
RR2552 signal repeaters can be installed as needed to increase transmission distance between sensors and
receivers - see FIGURE 1.
PRECAUTIONS
• To maintain high performance, do not install sensors, repeaters, or receivers in the following areas:
- Inside metal enclosure / panel
- Inside or immediately next to elevator shaft or elevator banks
- In front of or immediately next to large trees or large body of water
- Do not mount above false ceiling. Mount in wall 1” below ceiling.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Mount the RD2402D as close to the equipment or
controller as possible using four #8 screws
(mounting dimensions see Figure 3).
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
WIRING PRECAUTIONS
•Do NOT run Analog/Digital Output wires
in any conduit with line voltage
(24/120/230 VAC).
•Remove power before wiring. NEVER
connect or disconnect wiring with power
applied.
• The RD2402D is full wave rectified.
•It is recommended that you use an
isolated UL-listed Class 2 transformer
when powering the unit with 24 VAC.
Failure to wire the devices with the
correct polarity when sharing transform-
ers may result in damage to any device
powered by the shared transformer.
Observe polarity when connecting analog
outputs to the controller inputs.
Connect 24VAC 60Hz to the TB1 terminals using
16-26 twisted pair wire. Check all connections
before applying power to the unit.
Connect the digital outputs to the appropriate control input terminals on the controller using 16-26 AWG
wire. Each output needs 2 wires. Do not Jumper Commons for relay outputs.
