i-Vu Open Link 1
What is the i-Vu Open Link?
The i-Vu Open Link is a BACnet device router that acts as a gateway between the BACnet IP network and a
BACnet MS/TP network. The i-Vu Open Link increases the capacity of an Open system, allowing individual
MS/TP networks (with up to 60 Open controllers each) to be connected via a common BACnet/IP backbone.
The i-Vu Open Link can also integrate third-party equipment, supporting BACnet MS/TP, BACnet/IP, Modbus
RTU, Modbus/IP, and LON FT-10 protocols. The i-Vu Open Link has one EIA-485 port for connecting to the
Open or third-party MS/TP bus, and one jumper-configurable EIA-232/EIA-485 port for connecting to a
Modbus or LonWorks network. It also has one 10/100 Base-T Ethernet port for connecting to the building
LAN and integrating to third-party IP control networks.

•For i-Vu Open Link configuration using a terminal program
(such as Windows Hyperterminal) via RS-232
•For system start-up and troubleshooting using Carrier tools via
Rnet
Real time clock Battery-backed real-time clock keeps track of time in event of
power failure
Battery 10-year Lithium CR123A battery provides a maximum of 720 hours
data retention during power outages. The battery retains time,
trend data, alarm data, configuration data, and operating
parameters in the event of power failure.To conserve battery life,
battery backup turns off after a specified number of days defined in
the controller driver.

replaceable internal solid-state polyswitches that reset themselves
when the condition that causes a fault returns to normal. The power

Safety considerations
Disconnect electrical power to the i-Vu Open Link before wiring it. Failure to follow this warning could cause
electrical shock, personal injury, or damage to the controller.

Installation
4 i-Vu Open Link
To install the i-Vu Open Link:
1 Mount the i-Vu Open Link. (page 4)
2 Wire for power. (page 5)
3 Wire for communications (page 5).
4 Connect the i-Vu Open Link to the Ethernet (page 6).
5 Set the i-Vu Open Link's address and IP address. (page 7)
To mount the i-Vu Open Link
When you handle the i-Vu Open Link:
•Do not contaminate the printed circuit board with fingerprints, moisture, or any foreign material.
•Do not touch components or leads.
•Handle the board by its edges.
•Isolate from high voltage or electrostatic discharge.
•Ensure that you are properly grounded.
Screw the i-Vu Open Link into an enclosed panel using the mounting slots on the cover plate. Leave about 2
in. (5 cm) on each side of the controller for wiring.
Mounting hole dimensions:
•11.25" (27.64cm) width
•1.25" (31.75mm) top edge to center of first hole
•3.75" (63.5mm) top edge to center of second hole
Installation

i-Vu Open Link 5
To wire for power
1 Make sure the i-Vu Open Link’s power switch is in the OFF position to prevent it from powering up before
you can verify the correct voltage.
2 Remove power from the power supply.
3 Pull the screw terminal connector from the controller's power terminals labeled 24V ac/dc and Ground.
4 Connect the transformer wires to the screw terminal connector.
5 Apply power to the power supply.
6 Measure the voltage at the i-Vu Open Link’s power input terminals to verify that the voltage is within the
operating range of 21.6 – 26.4 Vac or 23.4 - 28.6 Vdc.
7 Insert the screw terminal connector into the i-Vu Open Link's power terminals.
8 Turn on the i-Vu Open Link's power.
9 Verify that the Run LED (a dot in the lower right corner of the Module Status LED) begins blinking. The
Module Status LED will display 8 for about 5 seconds and then reverts to 0, until Open controllers have
been discovered and uploaded. There is a chase pattern when the controller is running with no errors.
