What is the i-Vu® Open Router?
The i-Vu® Open Router is a controller that acts as a router between the main BACnet IP network and a BACnet
MS/TP network segment. The i-Vu® Open Router increases the capacity of an Open system, allowing individual
MS/TP network segments (with up to 60 Open controllers each) to be connected via a common BACnet IP
backbone.

Real time clock
Battery-backed real-time clock keeps track of time in event of power failure
Battery
10-year Lithium CR123A battery ensures the following data is retained for a maximum
of 720 hours during power outages:
•Time
•Graphics
•Control programs
•Editable properties
•Schedules
•Trends
To conserve battery life, you can set the driver to turn off battery backup after a
specified number of days and depend on the archive function to restore data when the
power returns.
A low battery is indicated by the Battery Low LED or a low battery alarm in the i-Vu®
application, a touchscreen device, and Field Assistant.
Protection
Built-in surge and transient protection for power and communications in compliance
with EN61000-6-1.
Incoming power and network connections are protected by non-replaceable internal
solid-state polyswitches that reset themselves when the condition that causes a fault
returns to normal.
The power and network connections are also protected against transient excess
voltage/surge events lasting no more than 10 msec.
CAUTION To protect against large electrical surges on serial EIA-485 networks,
place a PROT485 at each place wire enters or exits the building.

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

Mounting the i-Vu® Open Router
WARNING
When you handle the i-Vu® Open Router:
•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 Router 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.

Wiring the i-Vu® Open Router for power
WARNING Do not apply line voltage (mains voltage) to the controller's ports and terminals.
CAUTIONS
•The i-Vu® Open Router is powered by a Class 2 power source. Take appropriate isolation measures when
mounting it in a control panel where non-Class 2 circuits are present.
•Carrier controllers can share a power supply as long as you:
•Maintain the same polarity.
•Use the power supply only for Carrier controllers.
To wire for power
1 Make sure the i-Vu® Open Router’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 router's power terminals labeled 24 Vac/Vdc 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 Router’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 Router's power terminals.
8 Turn on the i-Vu® Open Router'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 controllers have been found and
downloaded. There is a chase pattern when the router is running with no errors.

Addressing the i-Vu® Open Router
The i-Vu® Open Router needs two addresses, one for the Open network and one for the IP Network.
The i-Vu® Open
Router needs...
That is unique
on the...
Notes
A router address
Open network
You set the i-Vu® Open Router address on the rotary switches.
(1-99)
NOTE The i-Vu® Open Router address is also used to auto-
generate the BACnet device instance/name for the router and
the MS/TP network number for the connected Open network.
See Configuring BACnet device instance and network number
for more information.
An IP address
IP Network
Use the IP Address DIP switch to choose one of the following:
•Use DHCP to obtain an IP address
•Assign a custom IP address (default)
The default IP settings are:
•192.168.168x, where x = router address
•subnet mask = 255.255.255.0
•default gateway = 192.168.168.254
To set the i-Vu® Open Router address on the Open network
CAUTION The i-Vu® Open Router address must be unique on the IP and Open network.
1 If wired for power, turn off the power.
NOTE The i-Vu® Open Router only reads the rotary switch positions during power up or upon reset.
2 Use the rotary switches to set the 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. Valid addresses are 1 - 99.
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.
