Application
System 450™ is a family of modular, digital electronic
controls that is easily assembled and set up to provide
reliable temperature, pressure, and humidity control for
a wide variety of HVACR and commercial and industrial
process applications.
The System 450 control modules allow you to
configure custom application-specific control systems
with up to three input sensors and ten (relay or analog)
outputs, including control systems that can monitor and
control temperature, pressure, and humidity
applications simultaneously.
C450CEN-x control modules feature an LCD and
four-button touch pad UI that allows you to set up a
System 450 control system, and an RJ45 Ethernet
network port that enables you to connect your control
system to and communicate across an Ethernet
network.
The System 450 control module with Ethernet
communications has an integral web server that
supports browser access. The web server can be
configured to deliver System 450 web pages to client
browsers and allows you to monitor your control
system status and change your control system
configuration in simple, user-friendly web pages.

System 450™ Series Control Module with Ethernet Communications Installation Instructions2
Location Considerations
Observe the following System 450 location guidelines:
• Ensure that the mounting surface can support the
module assembly, mounting hardware, and any
(user-supplied) panel or enclosure.
• Mount the modules upright and plugged together in
a horizontal row where possible (Figure 3). DIN rail
mounting is highly recommended.
• Mount modules on flat even surfaces.
• Allow sufficient space for wires and connections.
• Mount the modules in locations free of corrosive
vapors and observe the ambient operating
conditions listed in the Technical Specifications.
• Do not mount the modules on surfaces that are
prone to vibration or in locations where radio
frequency or electromagnetic emissions may
cause interference.
• Do not install the modules in airtight enclosures.
Do not install the modules in an enclosure with
heat-generating devices that may cause the
temperature to exceed the ambient operating limit.
Mounting
You can mount System 450 modules on 35 mm DIN rail
(recommended) or directly to an even wall surface.
To mount modules on DIN rail:
1. Provide a section of 35 mm DIN rail that is longer
than the module assembly width, and mount the
DIN rail horizontally in a suitable location using the
appropriate mounting hardware.
2. Clip the control module on the rail, position the
upper DIN rail clips on the top rail, and gently snap
the lower clips onto the rail.
3. Clip the remaining modules to the right of the
control module on to the DIN rail and plug the 6-pin
module connectors together (Figure 3).
Note: If your System 450 control system uses a
power module, the power module must be plugged
into the right side of the control module.
To direct-mount modules to walls and other flat
surfaces using the four keyhole slots:
1. Plug the modules together, remove the module
covers, place the module assembly horizontally
against the wall surface in a suitable location, and
mark the mount hole locations on the mounting
surface (Figure 1).
Note: The four keyhole slots on the
communications control module are not accessible
from the front (even with the cover removed). Use
another System 450 module to mark the
communications module mounting hole locations
on the mounting surface.
2. Install appropriate screws or fasteners, leaving the
screw heads approximately one to two turns away
from flush to the surface.
3. Position the assembly mounting slots over the
screw heads, and then carefully tighten the
mounting screws to secure the assembly to the
surface.
Note: The mounting screws on a communications
module cannot be accessed or tightened after the
module is attached to the screws. The enclosure
has a ramp molded into the keyhole slots, which
allows you to mount the module on the screw
heads.
Note: If you mount the modules on an uneven
surface, use shims or washers to mount module
assembly evenly on the surface.
Refer to the input sensor installation instructions for
information on locating and mounting control sensors.

Wiring
See Figure 2 and Table 1 for electrical termination
locations and wiring information. See Technical
Specifications on page 46 for electrical ratings.
!
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.
Disconnect or isolate all power supplies
before making electrical connections.
More than one disconnect or isolation
may be required to completely
de-energize equipment. Contact with
components carrying hazardous voltage
can cause electric shock and may result
in severe personal injury or death.
IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make
all wiring in accordance with local, national, and
regional regulations.
IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the System 450
module electrical ratings. Exceeding module
electrical ratings can result in permanent damage to
the modules and void any warranty.
IMPORTANT: Run all low-voltage wiring and
cables separate from all high-voltage wiring.
Shielded cable is strongly recommended for input
(sensor) and analog output cables that are exposed
to high electromagnetic or radio frequency noise.
IMPORTANT: Electrostatic discharge can damage
System 450 modules. Use proper Electrostatic
Discharge (ESD) precautions during installation and
servicing to avoid damaging System 450 modules.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect 24 VAC supply
power to the System 450 modules before finishing
wiring and checking all wiring connections. Short
circuits or improperly connected wires can result in
damage to the modules and void any warranty.
IMPORTANT: A System 450 control module and
module assembly can be connected to an internal
power source (a System 450 power module) or an
external power source (24 V power connected to the
24V and COM terminals on the control module), but
must not be connected to both power sources
simultaneously. Connecting a control module to both
internal and externalpower sources can damage the
modules and void any warranty.
IMPORTANT: When connecting System 450
compatible sensors with shielded cable to a
System 450 control module, connect the cable
shield drain lead to one of the C (common) terminals
on the input sensor terminal block. Do not connect
the shield at any other point along the cable. Isolate
and insulate the shield drain at the sensor end of the
cable. Connecting a cable shield at more than one
point can enable transient currents to flow through
the sensor cable shield, which can cause erratic
control operation.

Setup and Adjustments
System 450 Component Requirements
A System 450 control system consists of one control
module, one to three control sensor inputs, and one to
ten outputs that provide on/off control or analog control.
Figure 3 shows an example System 450 control system
module assembly, with two sensors and three outputs,
connected to an Ethernet network.
Building a System 450 Module Assembly
To set up a System 450 module assembly:
1. Determine the controlled conditions, sensor types,
and value ranges required for your application, and
select the appropriate System 450 sensor types.
2. Determine the number and type (relay or analog) of
outputs required to control your application, and
select the appropriate System 450 control module
and expansion modules to provide the outputs.
3. Assemble the control and expansion modules in
the proper order, starting with the control module
on the left.
Note: If you use a C450YNN-1C power module, it
must be plugged into the control module. Plug in
any expansion modules to the right of the power
module.
4. Apply supply power to the module assembly.
Note: After you power on your module assembly, you
can set up your control system in the control module UI
before wiring the sensors or outputs to your assembly.
Setting Up the Control System in the UI
System 450 control modules have a backlit LCD and a
four-button touch pad UI (Figure 4) that enable you to
set up your control system. To set up a control system
in the System 450 UI:
1. Build your control system module assembly and
connect it to power. See Building a System 450
Module Assembly on page 5.
Note: Every time a module assembly is powered
On, the control module polls all of the modules to
identify output type (relay or analog) and assigns a
sequential output number (1 to 9 [0 = 10]) to each
output starting with the control module output on
the left. The output numbers identify each output’s
setup screens in the UI. (See Figure 4.)
2. Access the System 450 setup screens in the UI.
See Accessing the System 450 Setup Start
Screens on page 6.
3. Set up the control system inputs in the UI. See

1. Because of the way that the System 450 Differential Sensor (Sn-d) is set up and calculated with two identical sensors
(Sn-1 and Sn-2), the range of usable values is twice as large as a single sensor. Each Sensor Type has an equal number of
positive and negative values. See Table 9 for the range of usable values when an output references Sn-d.
2. Refer to the System 450 Series Modular Controls Product Bulletin (LIT-12011458), Catalog Page (LIT-1900549), or the
System 450 Series Controls Systems with Communications Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011826) for additional ordering
information for System 450 compatible sensors and transducers.
3. See Setting Up Outputs That Reference a P 110 Sensor on page 10 for information on setting up System 450 outputs that
reference the P 110 Sensor Type.
4. Many of the temperature sensors that can be set up as HI°F or HI°C Sensor Types are not designed for use across the
entire range of usable values for HI°F and HI°C Sensor Types. Refer to the Technical Specifications for the sensor you
intend to use to determine the ambient temperature range that the sensor is specified to operate in. The TE-6000-6 Nickel
Sensor is the only sensor designed for use over the entire temperature range.
5. Selecting the bin Sensor Type for a sensor (Sn-1, Sn-2, or Sn-3) sets up the input to control relay outputs (only) based on
the state of the binary input contacts (open or closed) connected to the sensor input (Sn1, Sn2, or Sn3). See Binary Input
Control for Relay Outputs on page 11 for more information.

System 450™ Series Control Module with Ethernet Communications Installation Instructions10
Setting Up Outputs That Reference a P 110 Sensor
The P 110 Sensor Type can monitor negative pressure
down to 20 InHg (-10 psi). When referencing a P 110
sensor, System 450 displays negative pressure values
in InHg on the Main and System Status screens.
But when you set up an output that references a P 110
sensor and the setup value is a negative pressure
value, you must select a pressure value in negative psi.
Sensor Type Selection Screens: The Sensor Type you select for an input sensor automatically
determines the setup parameters and values for each output that is set up to reference that sensor. See
Table 3 for information about System 450 sensors or transducers, Sensor Types, condition type, units of
measurement, minimum control band or proportional band, setup values, value ranges, and product code
numbers.
Note: For outputs to operate properly, the selected Sensor Type must match the sensor or transducer
model wired to the control module, and the sensor or transducer must be wired to the proper control
module input terminals.
2. In the Sn-1 Sensor Type Selection screen, press or to select the desired Sensor Type.
Press to save your selection and go to the Sn-2 Sensor Type Selection screen.
3. In the Sn-2 Sensor Type Selection screen, press or to select the desired Sensor Type.

Press to save your selection and either:
• go to the Temperature Offset Setup screen for the first temperature sensor in your system.
• return to the Sensor Setup Start Screen, if your control system has no temperature sensors.
Note: On System 450 control modules with network communications, if you select the same Sensor
Type for Sn-1 and Sn-2, two additional functional sensors (Sn-d and HI-2) are available for selection
when you set up the control system outputs. If you select the same Sensor Type for Sn-1, Sn-2 and Sn-3,
then functional sensor HI-3 is also available for selection when you set up outputs. See High Input-Signal
Selection on page 11 and Differential Control on page 11 for more information.
The screen examples show Sn-1 with the P 500 Sensor Type selected; Sn-2 with the °F Sensor Type
selected; and Sn-3 with the no Sensor Type selected.
Temperature Offset Selection Screens: Select a temperature offset for the temperature inputs (only) in
your control system.
Sensor Type °F enables an offset of +/- 5°F in 1 degree increments.
Sensor Type °C enables an offset of +/- 2.5°C in 0.5 degree increments.
Note: The temperature offset changes the displayed temperature value by the selected offset value.
5. Press or to select the desired temperature offset value. Press :
• to go to the next Temperature Offset Selection screen (if there are additional temperature
sensors in your control system) and repeat this step for each temperature sensor.
• to return to the Sensor Setup Start screen.
The screen example shows an OFFS value of -3 (°F) for Sensor 2. Therefore a sensed temperature value
of 75 (°F) at Sensor 2 is displayed as 72 (°F).
Sensor Setup Start Screen: When you have finished setting up all of the sensors for your control
system, the display returns to the Sensor Setup Start screen.
Note: You can edit the sensor setup values at any time, if required. However, changing the Sensor Type
for a sensor that is referenced by an output requires setting up the output again to the new Sensor Type
values.
After the sensors are set up for your control system, you can:
• Press to scroll through the Output Setup Start screens and begin setting up your system
outputs.
• Press and simultaneously to return to the Main screens.
The screen example shows Sensors Setup Start screen with flashing dashes.

Use Table 5 to determine the negative PSI setup value
that corresponds to your InHg target value. For
example, if you want a relay output to go off when the
sensed pressure reaches 7 InHg, you select the value
-3.5 (psi) in the output’s Relay OFF Selection screen.
Note: When an output references the P 110 Sensor
Type and the output is set up for Differential Control
(Sn-1 and Sn-2 are P 110 Sensor Type), the negative
pressure values displayed in the differential pressure
System Status screen (dIFP) appear as negative psi
values, not InHg values. See Differential Control for
more information.
Binary Input Control for Relay Outputs
You can connect a binary input (dry contacts) to any of
the three System 450 communications control module
inputs (Sn1, Sn2, or Sn3) and control the output relays
in your control system based on the binary input’s state
(open or closed).
A sensor (Sn-1, Sn-2, or Sn-3) set up as a binary input
can only be referenced by a relay output. Sensors set
up as binary inputs are not available for selection on
analog outputs.
When a relay output references a sensor that is set up
as a binary input, the On and OFF parameter screens
are not available as you set up the output. The relay
output’s On/Off state is controlled by the binary input’s
Closed/Open state and any of the timer parameters
(ONT, OFFT, ONd, or OFFd) that you set up for the
relay output. Refer to the Binary Input Control for Relay
Outputs section on page18 of the System 450 Series
Modular Control Systems with Communications
Control Modules Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011826) for
more information.
High Input-Signal Selection
System 450 control modules with communications
include the High Input-Signal Selection control feature.
The High Input-Signal Selection feature enables a
System 450 control system to monitor a condition
(temperature, pressure, or humidity) with two or three
sensors (of the same type) and control relay and/or
analog outputs based on the highest condition value
sensed by the two or three referenced sensors.
In two sensor applications (HI-2), Sn-1 and Sn-2 must
be the same Sensor Type. In three sensor applications
(HI-3), Sn-1, Sn-2, and Sn-3 must be the same Sensor
Type.
A System 450 control system, using High Input-Signal
Selection, can monitor the outlet pressures of two
condenser coils in a multi-circuit condensing unit using
two pressure sensors of the same type; one connected
to each coil outlet.
Differential Control
System 450 control modules with communications
include the Differential Control feature. Differential
control is used to monitor and maintain a given
difference in a condition (temperature, pressure, or
humidity) between two sensor points within a system,
process, or space.
The Differential Control feature enables a System 450
control system to monitor the temperature, pressure, or
humidity differential between two sensors of the same
type (Sn-1 and Sn-2) and control relay and/or analog
outputs based on the sensed differential value relative
to user-selected differential values (dON, dOFF, dSP,
and dEP).
When a Differential Control sensor (Sn-d) is set up, the
displayed differential sensor value is a calculated
variable value: (Sn-d) = (Sn-1) – (Sn-2).
The Sn-d value appears in the System Status screens
as either a temperature differential value (dIFT),
pressure differential value (dIFP), or humidity
differential value (dIFH). The unit of measurement
associated with the displayed differential value is
determined by the Sn-1 and Sn-2 Sensor Type. See
Table 3 on page 8 for Sensor Types and their units of
measurement.
The relay output setup values dON and dOFF are
condition differential values. When a relay output is set
up for differential control, System 450 controls the relay
state (On or Off) based on the difference between Sn-1
and Sn-2 (Sn-d) relative to the user-selected
differential On (dON) and differential Off (dOFF)
values.

System 450™ Series Control Module with Ethernet Communications Installation Instructions12
When an analog output is set up for differential control,
System 450 controls the analog signal strength based
on the difference between Sn-1 and Sn-2 (Sn-d)
relative to the user-selected differential setpoint (dSP)
and differential endpoint (dEP) values.
Differential Sensor Range of Usable Values
The System 450 Differential Control sensor (Sn-d)
value is always equal to Sn-1 minus Sn-2. Depending
on the intended control action of the output, the
differential value may be either a positive or negative
value. Therefore, the range of usable values is twice as
large as a single sensor, and each Sensor Type has an
equal number of positive and negative values. See
Table 6 for the range of usable values when an output
references Sn-d.
Note: Binary Inputs cannot be set up to as a
Differential Sensor.
Setting Up System 450 Outputs
After you build and connect power to your control
system module assembly, the output numbers and
output types for your control system are automatically
assigned in the UI.
Note: You must set up the input sensors for your
control system before you can set up the outputs. See
Setting Up System 450 Sensors on page 8 for more
information.
To set up System 450 outputs in the UI:
1. Apply power to your module assembly. After the
Startup screen appears briefly (displaying the
control module firmware version), the Main screen
appears on the LCD.
2. In the Main screen, press and hold and
simultaneously for 5 seconds to access the setup
screens and to go to the Sensor Setup Start
screen.
3. At the Sensor Setup Start screen, press
repeatedly to scroll through and select the desired
Output Setup Start screen. The Output Setup
Start screen indicates the output number and the
output type for the selected output.
4. To set up relay outputs, see Setting Up a Relay
Output and Table 7 for setup information and
procedures.
5. To set up analog outputs, see Setting Up an Analog
Output and Table 9 for setup information and
procedures.

Setting Up an Analog Output
Analog outputs provide an analog signal to control
equipment in you application based on the input from a
standard fixed setpoint sensor (Sn-1, Sn-2, or Sn-3) or
a High Input Signal Selection sensor (HI-2 or HI-3).
Note: The differential sensor, Sn-d, is used to set up
analog and relay outputs for Differential Control. See
Differential Control on page 11 for more information.
Analog outputs provide an auto-selecting analog signal
that is proportional to the sensed input condition. The
System 450 analog output senses the impedance of
the controlled equipment’s analog input circuit and
automatically delivers either a 0–10 VDC or 4–20 mA
signal to the controlled equipment.
Figure 5 shows an example of the analog output setup
values and the resulting output signal in a typical space
heating application (SP > EP and OSP < OEP).

sensor wiring fails. For outputs that reference functional sensors HI-2, HI-3, or Sn-d, the failure of any of
the referenced hard-wired sensors results in a functional sensor failure condition. The output operates in
the selected Sensor Failure mode until the failure is remedied. Sensor Failure mode selections for relay
outputs include:
• ON = Output relay remains on during sensor failure.
• OFF = Output relay remains off during sensor failure.
9. Press or to select this output’s mode of operation if the sensor or sensor wiring fails.
Press to save your sensor failure mode selection and go to the Edit Sensor screen.
The screen example shows OFF selected as the Sensor Failure mode for Output 1.

Setting Up the Integration Constant, Update Rate,
and Output Deadband
The System 450 Integration Constant (I-C), the Update
Output Signal Rate (UP-R), and the Output Signal
Strength Deadband (bNd) are powerful tools for
controlling the analog outputs and your application’s
process loops.
Depending on your control system application, setting
up the I-C, UP-R, or bNd values to values other than
the factory-default values can significantly change the
behavior of an analog output. Refer to the System 450
Series Modular Control Systems with Communications
Control Modules Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011826) for
more information.
Table 9 provides information, procedures, guidelines,
and screen examples for setting up analog outputs on
System 450 control modules with communications.
See Figure 6 on page 25 for example menu flow of the
Analog Output 3 set up in Table 9.
IMPORTANT: If you set the I-C, UP-R, or bNd
values to values other than the default value, you
should operate and observe the affected analog
outputs and process loops through the entire range
of control. Failure to observe and adjust an analog
output set up to use the I-C, UP-R, or bNd features
can result in unexpected behavior and out of range
conditions in the affected process loops.

When an analog output references Sn-d, the Differential Setpoint Selection screen appears.
Differential Setpoint Selection Screen: Differential Setpoint (dSP) is the target value that the controlled
system drives towards and along with Differential End Point (dEP), defines this output’s proportional band.
The dSP value is a differential value that represents a (selected) difference in the condition (temperature,
pressure, or humidity) between Sn-1 and Sn-2 (Sn-1 minus Sn-2). Depending on the intended
proportional control action and the physical location of Sn-1 and Sn-2 sensors in the condition process,
dSP may be a positive or negative value.
Note: The unit of measurement, resolution increment, minimum proportional band, and range of usable
values for dSP and dEP are determined by the Sensor Type selected for Sn-1 and Sn-2. (See Table 3 and
Table 6 for more information.) The output’s minimum proportional band (between dSP and dEP) is
automatically enforced in the output’s Setpoint and End Point Selection screens.
3. Press or to select this output’s Differential Setpoint value. Press to save your
Differential Setpoint value selection and go to the End Point Selection screen.
The screen example shows a dSP value of 30 (psi) selected for Output 3.

When the output references Sn-1, Sn-2, Sn-3, HI-2, or HI-3, the Standard End Point Selection
screen appears.
End Point Selection Screen: End Point is the value that the controlled system drives away from (towards
Setpoint) and, along with Setpoint, defines this output’s proportional band.
Note: An output’s minimum proportional band (between Setpoint and End Point) is automatically
enforced in the output’s Setpoint and End Point Selection screens.
4. Press or to select this output’s End Point value. Press to save your End Point value
selection and go to the %Output Signal Strength at Setpoint Selection screen.
The screen example shows an End Point value of 250 (psi) selected for Output 3.
When the Output references Sn-d, the Differential End Point Selection screen appears.
Differential End Point Selection Screen: Differential End Point (dEP) is the target value that the
controlled system drives away from (towards Differential Setpoint) and along with Differential Setpoint
(dSP), defines this output’s proportional band. The dEP value is a differential value that represents a
(selected) difference in the condition (temperature, pressure, or humidity) between Sn-1 and Sn-2 (Sn-1
minus Sn-2). Depending on the intended proportional control action and the physical location of Sn-1 and
Sn-2 sensors in the condition process, dEP may be a positive or negative value.
Note: The unit of measurement, resolution increment, minimum proportional band, and range of usable
values for dSP and dEP are determined by the Sensor Type selected for Sn-1 and Sn-2. (See Table 3 and
Table 6 for more information.) The output’s minimum proportional band (between dSP and dEP) is
automatically enforced in the output’s Setpoint and End Point Selection screens.
4. Press or to select this output’s Differential End Point value. Press to save your
Differential End Point value selection and go to the %Output Signal Strength at Setpoint Selection
screen.

Integration Constant Selection Screen: An integration constant allows you to set up proportional plus
integral control for this analog output. proportional plus integral control can drive the load closer to
Setpoint than proportional only control.
Note: Initially, you should select the I-C value of 0(zero) for no integration constant. Refer to the System
450 Series Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011459) for more information on proportional plus integral control
and setting an integration constant in the System 450 UI.
7. Press or to select this output’s Integration Constant for proportional plus integral control.
Press to save your selection and go to the Output Update Rate Selection screen.
The screen example shows an I-C value of 0(zero) selected for Output 3.
Output Signal Update Rate Selection Screen: Select the time interval in seconds at which the output
updates the output signal strength. The selected Output Signal Update Rate is the minimum time that the
output maintains a constant signal strength (regardless of the input signal) before updating the output
signal in response to the referenced input signal. The Output Signal Update Rate value range is 1 to 240
(seconds).
Note: The Output Update Rate is used to reduce excessive cycling or repositioning of controlled
equipment, such as valve and damper actuators. The Output Signal Update Rate feature can be used in
conjunction with the Output Signal Dead Band feature.
8. Press or to select this output’s Output Signal Update Rate. Press to save your selection
and go to the Output Signal Dead Band Selection screen.
The screen example shows an Output Update Rate value of 1 (second), which is the default and lowest
update rate you can select.
Output Signal Dead Band Selection Screen: Select the Output Signal Dead Band value (as a percent
of the output signal strength range) to establish a dead band around the analog output signal strength.
The analog output responds to a changing input signal and updates the output signal strength whenever
the input signal moves outside of the selected Output Signal Deadband.
At each update of the output signal, the control determines if the calculated (input-induced) output signal
strength is within the selected Output Signal Dead Band or not. If the input-induced change of the output
signal strength is within the selected Output Signal Dead Band, the output signal strength is not updated
and remains unchanged. If the input-induced change of the output signal falls outside the Output Signal
Dead Band, the output signal strength is updated to the new signal strength value and the selected Output
Signal Dead Band is applied to the new signal strength value. The Output Signal Dead Band range is 0 to
50% of the OSP to OEP range.
Note: The Output Signal Dead Band is used to reduce excessive cycling or repositioning of controlled
equipment, such as valve and damper actuators.The Output Signal Dead Band feature can be used in
conjunction with the Output Signal Update Rate feature.
9. Press or to select this output’s Output Signal Dead Band. Press to save your selection
and go to the Sensor Failure Mode Selection screen.
The screen example shows an Output Dead Band value of 0 (%), which is the default value and disables
the Output Dead Band feature.
Sensor Failure Mode Selection Screen: Select the output’s mode of operation if a referenced sensor or
sensor wiring fails. For outputs that reference functional sensors HI-2, HI-3, or Sn-d, the failure of any of
the referenced hard-wired sensors results in a functional sensor failure condition. The output operates in
the selected Sensor Failure mode until the failure is remedied. Sensor Failure mode selections for analog
outputs include:
• ON = Output generates the selected OEP signal strength during sensor failure.
• OFF = Output generates the selected OSP signal strength during sensor failure.
10. Press or to select this output’s mode of operation if the sensor or sensor wiring fails.
Press to save your selection and go to the Edit Sensor Selection screen.
The screen example shows OFF selected as the Sensor Failure mode for Output 3.
