IntesisBox must be installed by accredited electrician or similar technical personnel, following all the safety instructions
given here, and in accordance always with the country legislation for installation of electric equipment.
IntesisBox can not be installed outdoors or exposed to direct solar radiation, water, high relative humidity or dust.
IntesisBox must only be installed in a restricted access location
In case of wall mount, fix firmly IntesisBox on a not vibrating surface following the instructions below.
In case of DIN rail mount fix IntesisBox properly to the DIN rail following the instructions below.
Mounting on DIN rail inside a metallic cabinet properly connected to earth is recommended.
Disconnect always power of any wires before manipulating and connecting them to IntesisBox.
A power supply with an NEC Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) and SELV rated is to be used.
Respect always the expected polarity of power and communication cables when connecting them to IntesisBox.
Supply always a correct voltage to power IntesisBox, see details of voltage range admitted by the device in the technical
characteristics below.
This device was designed for installation in an enclosure. To avoid electrostatic discharge to the unit in environments with
static levels above 4 kV precautions should be taken when the device is mounted outside an enclosure. When working in
an enclosure (ex. making adjustments, setting switches etc.) typical anti-static precautions should be observed before
touching the unit
Safety Instructions
WARNING
Follow carefully this safety and installation instructions. Improper work may lead to serious harmful for your
health and also may damage seriously the IntesisBox and/or any other equipment connected to it.
Use the software LinkBoxBacnet to configure IntesisBox, follow the instructions of the user's manual for more
details.
See instructions to download and install the latest version of LinkBoxBacnet
and the user's manual at
http://www.intesis.com/down/bacnet/linkboxbacnet.html
Configuration and setup
Disconnect from mains the power supply before connecting it to IntesisBox.
Disconnect power of any bus or communication cable before connecting it to IntesisBox.
Mount IntesisBox on the wall or DIN rail following the instruction given below, respecting the safety
instructions given above.
Connect a NEC Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) and SELV rated power supply to IntesisBox,
respect the polarity if DC power or Line and Neutral if AC power. Apply always a voltage within the range
admitted by IntesisBox and of enough power (see technical characteristics).
Circuit-breaker must be used before the power supply. Rating 250V-6A
Connect the communication cables to IntesisBox, see details on the user's manual.
Power IntesisBox and the rest of devices connected to it.

1. Separate the fixing clips in the bottom of the box, pushing them to the outside until hear the "click" which
indicates that now the clips are in position for wall mount, see in the figure below.
2. Use the holes of the clips to fix the box in the wall using screws. Use the template below for the wall holes.
With the clips of the box in their original position, insert first the box in the upper edge of the DIN rail and later insert
the box in the down part of the rail using a small screwdriver and following the steps n the figure below.

Connections
________________________________________________________________________________________
Notes:
1. Must use NEC Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) and SELV rated power supply.
If using DC power supply:
Respect polarity applied of terminals (+) and (-). Be sure the voltage applied is within the range admitted (9 to 30 Vdc).
The power supply can be connected to earth but only through the negative terminal, never through the positive terminal.
If using AC power supply:
Make sure the voltage applied is of the value admitted (24 Vac). Do not connect any of the terminals of the AC power
supply to earth, and make sure the same power supply is not supplying any other device.
2. BACnet/IP and ASCII TCP connection: If BACnet/IP and ASCII TCP communications are used simultaneously, use a straigh ethernet
CAT5 cable connected to a hub or switch of the LAN of the building. If communicating through the LAN of the building contact the
network administrator and make sure UDP traffic and the port used (47808 by default) are allowed through all the LAN path.
If only BACnet/IP communication is used and the BACnet device is close to the IntesisBox, you can use a crossover ethernet CAT5
cable to connect directly the BACnet/IP controller to the connector ETH of IntesisBox.
3. ASCII EIA232 connection: Connect the cable coming from the programmable controller to the connector ASCII EIA232 of IntesisBox,
this is a standard EIA232 Db9 male connector (DTE) in which only lines TX, RX and GND are used, see user's manual for details.
Respect the maximum distance of 15 meters for this cable.
4. Use the software LinkBoxBacnet to configure IntesisBox. Consult the user's manual for details.
