Installation
Special Tools Needed
A 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) Allen wrench or a Johnson Controls
T-4000-119 Allen-Head Adjustment Tool is required
during installation.
Mounting
Note: The NS Series CO
2
Network Sensors are
intended to be mounted on a vertically roughed-in
wallbox only; do not attempt to mount the network
sensor on a horizontally roughed-in wallbox.
Location Considerations
Locate the network sensor:
• on a partitioning wall, approximately 5 ft (1.5 m)
above the floor in a location of average
temperature
• away from direct sunlight, radiant heat, outside
walls, outside doors, air discharge grills, or
stairwells; and from behind doors
• away from steam or water pipes, warm air stacks,
unconditioned areas (not heated or cooled), or
sources of electrical interference
Note: The network sensor is shock and vibration
resistant; however, be careful not to drop the unit or
mount it where it could be exposed to excessive
vibration.
The following ambient operating conditions apply:
• Temperature: 32 to 104°F (0 to 40°C)
• Humidity: 10 to 90% Relative Humidity (RH),
noncondensing; 85°F (29°C) maximum dew point
To mount the network sensor to a wallbox:
1. Use a 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) Allen wrench or
Johnson Controls T-4000-119 Allen-Head
Adjustment Tool to loosen the security screw on
the top of the unit.
2. Insert a coin into the slot next to the security screw
location, pressing the tab that keeps the unit
closed. Then carefully pry the top edge of the
sensor assembly away from its mounting base and
remove.
Pull out approximately 6 in. (152 mm) of cable from the
wallbox, and insert the cable through the hole in the
mounting base.
3. Align the mounting base on the wallbox.
Note: Confirm that the mounting base is positioned
with the proper edge up. The mounting base is
positioned properly when the security screw is located
on the top edge of the base.
4. Secure the mounting base to the wallbox using the
appropriate mounting hardware (field furnished).
5. Wire the network sensor as follows:
SA Bus Wiring: For the modular jack, simply snap
the wiring plug into the jack. See Figure 1 for
modular jack pin number assignments. A modular
jack requires a straight-through, one-to-one
connection (not a crossover). For the screw
terminal block, wire the unit as illustrated in
Figure 2.
Note: Connect to the SA Bus using either the screw
terminal block or the modular jack. Do not use both.
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when this equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area
may cause harmful interference, in which case the
users will be required to correct the interference at
their own expense.
This Class (A) digital apparatus meets all the
requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing
Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de la Classe (A) respecte
toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel
brouilleur du Canada.
IMPORTANT: Do not insert tools into the housing.
Be careful not to damage any components when
pushing on the tab.
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the Printed Circuit
Board (PCB). Removing the PCB voids the product
warranty.
