KELE FRONTIER™ NETWORK INTERFACE GATEWAY

DESCRIPTION

The Kele Frontier™ Model RUT-G receives and trans-

mits direct sequence spread-spectrum radio frequency

(RF) signals to Kele Frontier wireless I/O modules and

translates those signals into standard network protocol

communication. The network protocols currently avail-

able are for LON with standard SNVTs and a simple

RS232 language for direct computer interface. There is

no tuning, no external antenna, and no speciﬁc radio ex-

perience required to install and use the wireless system.

The radio frequency signal uses proven spread-spec-

trum technology, requires no FCC license, and has a

line-of-sight range of 2700' (823m).

FEATURES

• Standard network communication LON

or RS232/485

• Eliminates point wiring

• No FCC license required

• 200' to 500' (61 to 152m) in-building range

• Direct sequence spread-spectrum technology

• No external antenna required

APPLICATION

The Model RUT-G is used for direct interface with a

BAS computer through selected interface protocols. The

BAS will be able to communicate wirelessly to all Fron-

tier points within the same facility code. This product is

ideal for central monitoring and control of multiple points

spread out in a hard-to-wire facility or application.

CAUTION: All RF reception rates vary due to site conditions, the number of transmitters, and transmit times. Kele Frontier™

reception rates vary from 95% to 99.9%. This variance precludes the use of RF products in time-critical control loop applica-

tions. RF products should be considered only for monitoring and overriding noncritical applications. RF systems are prohibited

in life safety applications, hospitals, or any other location in which cell phones and radios are prohibited.

All Frontier transmitters send input signals at speciﬁc intervals (typically 30 or 60 seconds) and are received by the

Model RUT-G directly or through Frontier Model RR repeaters. They are then translated into the protocol desired, de-

pending on the plug-in key card selected. If the BAS computer sends an output signal, the Model RUT-G translates

the request and transmits the output signal to a Frontier receiver for analog adjust or on/off control.

SPECIFICATIONS

LON

In general, all LON SNVTs are supported, except structured and enumerated types. There are a few special HVAC

structured and enumerated SNVTs that are supported and are shown in the Typical Sample Point List on the follow-

ing page. Forty NVO/NVIs per protocol key are supported with changeable SNVTs and scaling. This makes binding

to existing LON devices easy without special SNVT conversion.

RS232, RS485

All Frontier points are represented with a transmitter module address ID and point number (1-4); four points per trans-

mitter ID. The number of total points is limited by the transmitter interval time calculation shown below.

PERFORMANCE

• Number of Transmitters/1.66 = Minimum Interval

Time

• Interval Time x 1.66 = Maximum Number of

Transmitters

Note: Interval time is in seconds.

• Interval Time/30 = Battery Life in Years

(for models RT-R, RT-U, RT-S)

Note: Interval time is in seconds.

TRANSMITTER INTERVAL TIME CALCULATIONS BATTERY LIFE CALCULATION

The RUT-G follows all of the Frontier application rules. Each protocol key handles a different number of Frontier trans-

mitters and receivers depending on the protocol key selected. The RUT-G point limit is dependent on the interval time

and the I/O mix. The Frontier interval time calculation dictates the number of transmitters per Frontier system. A chan-

nel shift can be programmed to achieve another group of transmitters with a second RUT-G gateway. An unlimited

number of receivers can be incorporated, depending on the transmitter I/O mix.

TYPICAL SAMPLE POINT LIST

LON point mapping and SNVT selection are done through a Frontier LNS plug-in. Each Frontier transmitter address

and point number is mapped to one of 40 NVOs or NVIs per protocol key and selectable SNVTs. An XIF ﬁle and LNS

plug-in is included with each LON key.

RS232/RS485 communication is direct to the RUT-G buffer and follows the Kele open protocol for interpretation di-

rectly by the BAS computer. Documentation is provided for programmers to write the interface between BAS comput-

ers and the RUT-G using the Kele open protocol. Point mapping is through the built-in HTML page accessed via an

RJ45 Ethernet connection and crossover cable.

LON KEY Each LON-KEY-◊ control module can support up to 40 network variables (NVs). The Frontier Gateway can

support up to three control modules for 120 NVs. As the application expands, control modules can be ﬁeld-installed

to meet the demand.

SERIAL KEY Only one SERIAL KEY can be installed in a single Gateway. Each SERIAL KEY can support 150 I/O.

INSTALLING A CONTROL MODULE

1. Position the control modules so that the back two-

row pins are correctly aligned with the two-row

socket on the Gateway. Do not push into the socket

at this time.

2. Rotate the control module so that the front single-

row pins are aligned with the Gateway single-row

socket.

3. Insure that all front and back row pins are aligned

with the Gateway sockets and that no pins are out-

side the sockets.

4. With a thumb in the center of the control module,

apply slight pressure to seat the control module

into the Gateway sockets.

5. As a ﬁnal check, visually recheck control module’s

pins and seating. Use module and existing installed

control module as a reference, if available.

WIRING

Install the RUT-G vertically. A pre-drilled 7/8" conduit hole is for wire entering from the bottom. Be sure to seal all

entries if NEMA rating is to be maintained. If installed outdoors, drill four 1/8" weep holes in the bottom at opposite

ends. To maintain maximum RF propagation and reception, the enclosure or PC board should not be enclosed in a

metal box.
