What is the Fan Coil controller?
The Fan Coil controller is available as an integrated component of a Carrier packaged unit. Its internal application
programming provides optimum performance and energy efficiency. Fan Coil enables the unit to run in 100%
stand-alone control mode or it can communicate to the Building Automation System (BAS).

Protocol Overview
You can set the Fan Coil to communicate 1 of 4 different protocols:
•BACnet MS/TP (page 5)
•BACnet ARC156 (page 9)
•N2 (page 13)
•Modbus (page 11)
•LonWorks (page 15)
The default setting is BACnet MS/TP. You set the protocol and baud rate on the Comm Selector DIP switches on
the controller. See table below for specific switch settings.
The third party connects to the controller through the Comm port for BACnet MS/TP, N2, Modbus, and through the
Option Card port for the LonWorks Option Card.
NOTES
•Changing protocol requires no programming or point assignment by the installer or operator.
•Power must be cycled after changing the Comm Selector DIP switches or connecting the LonWorks Option
Card.

BACnet MS/TP
To set up the Fan Coil for BACnet MS/TP
The Fan Coil’s latest supported function codes and capabilities are listed on the associated Protocol
Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS), Carrier BACnet PICS website
http://www.bacnetinternational.net/catalog/index.php?m=28.
NOTE This controller counts as a full load on the MS/TP bus.
1 Turn off the power for the Fan Coil by disconnecting power terminals.
2 Using the rotary switches, set a unique address. Set the Tens (10's) switch to the tens digit of the address,
and set the Ones (1's) switch to the ones digit.
EXAMPLE If the controller’s address is 25, point the arrow on the Tens (10's) switch to 2 and the arrow on
the Ones (1's) switch to 5.

6 Connect the communications wiring to the Comm port in the screw terminals labeled Net +, Net -, and Shield.
Wire specifications
○A dedicated 22 AWG shielded twisted pair wire (EIA 485)
○Maximum wire length 2000 feet (610 meters) or 32 nodes
○Devices should be daisy-chained and not star-wired
○Attach the drain/shield wire to both ends of the network segment and through every controller
NOTE Use the same polarity throughout the network segment.
7 Turn on the power for the Fan Coil by connecting power terminals.
Adjusting BACnet MS/TP properties using an Equipment Touch
You may need to adjust the following BACnet MS/TP protocol timing settings using the Equipment Touch.
Max Masters - defines the highest MS/TP Master MAC address on the MS/TP network.
For example, if there are 3 master nodes on an MS/TP network, and their MAC addresses are 1, 8, and 16, then
Max Masters would be set to 16 (since this is the highest MS/TP MAC address on the network).
This property optimizes MS/TP network communications by preventing token passes and “poll for master”
requests to non-existent Master nodes.
In the above example, MAC address 16 knows to pass the token back to MAC address 1, instead of counting up to
MAC address 127. Each MS/TP master node on the network must have their Max Masters set to this same value.
The default is 127.
Max Info Frames - defines the maximum number of responses that will be sent when the Fan Coil receives the
token. The default is 10 and should be ideal for the majority of applications. In cases where the Fan Coil is the
target of many requests, this number could be increased as high as 100 or 200.
NOTES
•BACnet MS/TP networks can be comprised of both master and slave nodes. Valid MAC addresses for master
nodes are 0 –127 and valid addresses for Slave nodes are 0 - 254.
•If the third party attempts to communicate to the controller but does not get a response, make sure the
controller is set as a BACnet MS/TP (m) master. The BACnet software asks the controllers, “Who Is?” This is
to auto-locate devices on the network. Only controllers set as masters will answer this request.
•See Appendix A (page 28) for Network Points List.
•See Appendix B (page 38) for the BACnet Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS).

Troubleshooting BACnet MS/TP communication
For detailed troubleshooting and a list of supported objects, get the controller's BACnet PICS from the Carrier
BACnet PICS website http://www.bacnetinternational.net/catalog/index.php?m=28. You must get your BACnet
Object list from the manufacturer.
The most common communication problems are the result of not properly following the configuration steps
outlined in this manual. Review all of the steps and use the following list to check your settings.
Verify accuracy of the following:
Hardware settings for BACnet MS/TP (8 Data bits, No Parity, and 1 Stop bit):
•Baud rate DIP switches 1 and 2
•BACnet MS/TP protocol DIP switches 3 and 4
•Jumper set to EIA-485
•Proper connection wiring
•Unique rotary address switches 1 –99. If controllers have duplicate addresses, network communication can
be lost.
•Unique BACnet Device Instance numbers. Default is 16101XX, with the rotary address switches defining XX. If
controllers have duplicate device instance numbers, network communication can be lost.
NOTES
•The controller recognizes physical changes (DIP switches, rotary switches, and jumpers) upon power up.
•If RX LED is solid, then the terminations are incorrect.
•If the network has greater than 32 devices or exceeds 2,000 feet, a Repeater should be installed.
•If a controller begins or ends a network segment, a terminating resistor may be needed.

5 Set both DIP switches 3and 4ON for LON.
The following example is set for 38.4 kbps and LonWorks.
CAUTION The controller must be OFF before being connected.
6 Connect the LonWorks network to the LonWorks Option Card's 2-pin Net port.
NOTE The 2-pin Net port provides TP/FT-10 channel compatibility. The TP/FT-10 or "Free Topology" network
type is polarity insensitive. Use 24 to 16 AWG twisted pair wire.
7 Turn on the power for the Fan Coil by connecting power terminals.
8 Commission the controller for LonWorks communication. See instructions below.
Commissioning the controller for LonWorks communication
Before a device can communicate on a LonWorks network, it must be commissioned. Commissioning allows the
system integrator to associate the device hardware with the LonWorks system’s network layout diagram. This is
done using the device’s unique Neuron ID.
A network management tool such as Echelon’s LonMaker is used to commission each device, as well as, to assign
addressing. Specific instructions regarding the commissioning of LonWorks devices should be obtained from
documentation supplied with the LonWorks Network Management Tool.
When a new device is first commissioned onto the LonWorks network, the system integrator must upload the
device’s External Interface File (XIF) information. LonWorks uses the XIF to determine the points (network
variables) that are available from a device. The Fan Coil has a set of predefined network variables. These
variables can be bound or accessed by the Network Management Tool.
The Browse feature of the Network Management Tool allows you to read real-time values from the Fan Coil. The
Network Management Tool allows you to test integration prior to binding the controller's network variables to other
LonWorks nodes.
