Wall-mounted Controller and Sensor TRI2-FU
The TRI2 is a programmable controller and sensor with communication capabilities. Each control loop may use 2 PI
sequences and 2 binary stages. The TRI2 uses the universal X2 operating system. Serial communication options are
realized with Modbus RTU/ASCII and BACnet MS/TP over RS485. There is also a Wi-Fi communication option available
which supports Modbus TCP and BACnet IP. An embedded webserver provides a web interface to operate the controller or
change the connection settings. Complete parameter sets may be copied by use of an accessory called AEC-PM2 or
exchanged with a PC using an RS485-USB converter or Wi-Fi communication, the EasySet program and the configuration
adapter called AEC-TRI-2.
Applications
•Ventilation control
•Temperature control
•Zone control
•Air humidifier and dehumidifier
Functions

oTransmitter function for inputs and set points
•Built in humidity and temperature sensors
•2 passive inputs (NTC, open contact), 1 analog input (VDC) and 2 analog outputs (VDC)
•2 relays with each a normally open contact (SPST NO) to switch line voltage
•8 freely assigned alarm conditions, selectable state of outputs on alarm condition
•Power Cap protected real-time clock with 48hr power backup
•7-day programmable schedules, with options including change of set points and direct position of manual outputs
•Password protected programmable user and control parameters
•Measures temperature and humidity

Mounting and Installation
Mounting location
•On a flat, easily accessible wall
•The following mounting locations should be avoided:
oProtect from direct exposure to sunlight
oDo not install near heat sources or other heat-generating devices
oAreas with poor air circulation and niches
oIn the direct influence area of ventilation and fans
oFor the types with wireless transmission (-WIM or -WIB), avoid locations that interfere with the radio
signals, e.g. metal boxes or devices that generate electrical interferences.
Mounting instructions
See the TRI2-FU installation sheet, document no. 70-00-0743 (www.vectorcontrols.com).
Selection of sensors and actuators
Temperature sensors
Use Vector Controls NTC sensors to achieve maximum accuracy: SDB-Tn10-20 (duct), SRA-Tn10 (room), SDB-Tn10-20 +
AMI-S10 as immersion sensor.
Actuators
Choose modulating actuators with an input signal type of 0/2-10 VDC.
3-point actuators with constant running time are recommended.
Binary auxiliary devices (e.g. pumps, fans, on/off valves, humidifiers, etc.)
Do not directly connect devices that exceed specified limits in technical specifications –observe startup current on
inductive loads.
Connection diagram
Wire type
An EIA-485 network shall use shielded, twisted-pair cable for data signaling with characteristic impedance between 100
and 130 ohms. Distributed capacitance between conductors shall be less than 100 pF per meter (30 pF per foot).
Distributed capacitance between conductors and shield shall be less than 200 pF per meter (60 pF per foot). Foil or
braided shields are acceptable.
Maximum length
The maximum recommended length per segment is 1200 meters (4000 feet) with AWG 18 (0.82 mm2 conductor area)
cable.
Status-LED
The TRI2 has a status-LED which becomes visible by removing the front part. The location of the LED is described in the
installation sheet. The function of the LED is explained in the X2 operation manual.

Operation and Configuration
Documentation
This controller uses the latest generation X2 operating system. Detailed operation instructions for all devices equipped
with this operating system can be found on our website.
Also available are programming instructions for technicians and an application database.
Configuration
The device can be fully configured and commissioned using the EasySet program or the built-in
operation terminal.
EasySet may be downloaded free of charge from our website www.vectorcontrols.com.
Configuring the TRI2 device
Configuring with EasySet (free PC application)
Use the PC and the EasySet tool to easily configure the TRI2 to your needs. Connect the PC with the
EasySet tool ether with the AEC-USB converter and the AEC-TRI-2 configuration adapter to the TRI2 or
use the Wi-Fi communication of the PC to connect to the TRI2 (for TRI2-WIM /-WIB devices only). See
TRI2 installation sheet for connection details.
Configuring with Operation Terminal
You can use the built-in operation terminal to configure the TRI2 to your needs. See “X2 Operations Manual touch display”
and “X2 Engineering Manual” for details.
Copy Configuration to other TRI2 devices
Complete parameter sets may be copied using the accessory AEC-PM2 or exchanged with a PC
using the EasySet tool and an RS485-USB converter or via Wi-Fi communication.
Copy configuration with the AEC-PM2
Use the configuration adaptor ACE-TRI-2 to load the configuration onto the AEC-PM2 plug-in
memory (see TRI2 installation sheet for connection details).
To copy the configuration to other TRI2 devices, connect the AEC-PM2 plug-in memory to the
TRI2 and simply press the copy button (see TRI2 installation sheet for connection details).
Copy configuration with EasySet (free PC application)
To copy the configuration to other TRI2 devices, connect the PC with the EasySet tool ether with the AEC-USB converter
and the AEC-TRI-2 configuration adapter to the TRI2 or use the Wi-Fi communication of the PC to connect to the TRI2 (for
TRI2-WIM /-WIB devices only). See TRI2 installation sheet for connection details.
