Setup and Adjustments

Setting the Device Addresses

Metasys field controllers are master devices on MS/TP
(SA or FC) buses. Before operating controllers on a bus,
you must set a valid and unique device address for each
controller on the bus. You set a controller's device
address by setting the positions of the switches on the
DIP switch block at the top of the controller
Device addresses 4 through 127 are the valid addresses
for these controllers.
The DIP switch block has eight switches numbered 128,
64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1
1 are device address switches. Switch 128 is a mode
switch that enables a controller to operate on a ZFR/ZFR
Pro Series Wireless Field Bus. Switch 128 must be set
to off for all hard-wired SA and FC bus applications. Set
switch 128 to ON for wireless FC bus applications only.
Figure 9: Device Address DIP Switch Block Set to
Address 21
Note: Controllers ship with switch 128 ON and the
remaining address switches off rendering the
controllers wired slave devices, which do not
operate on MS/TP buses, but will not interfere
with bus operation. Set a valid and unique device
address on the controller before applying power
to the controller on the bus.
To set the device addresses on Metasys field controllers:
1. Set all of the switches on the address DIP switch
block (128 through 1) to Off.
2. Set one or more of the seven address switches (64
though 1) to ON, so that the sum of the switch
numbers set to ON equals the intended device
address. See Table 6
Set the highest number switch that is less than or
equal to the intended device address to ON. Then
continue setting lower numbered switches until the
total equals the intended address. For example, if the
intended device address is 21, set switch 16 to ON
first, then set switch 4 ON, followed by switch 1
(16+4+1= 21). See
IOM47 Input/Output Module Installation Instructions
(Figure
(Figure 9). Switches 64 through
for valid device addresses.
Figure 9.
3. Set switch 128 to ON only for controllers on a
ZFR/ZFR Pro Series Wireless Field Bus application.
For all hard-wired SA and FC bus applications, ensure
that switch 128 is set to Off.
Note: Do not connect a controller with switch 128
set to ON to an active (hard-wired) SA or FC
bus. When a controller with switch 128 set to
ON and a device address from 4 to 127 is
3).
connected to a wired field bus, the entire field
bus is rendered inoperable until the controller
is disconnected or switch 128 is set to Off.
Refer to the WNC1800/ZFR182x Pro Series Wireless
Field Bus System Technical Bulletin (LIT-12012356)
or the ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus System
Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011295) for more
information on device addresses in wireless
applications.
4. Set a unique and sequential device address for each
of the controllers connected on the SA or FC bus
starting with device address 4.
To ensure the best bus performance, set sequential
device addresses with no gaps in the device address
range (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and so on). The controllers do
not need to be physically connected on the bus in
their numerical device address order.
5. Write each controller's device address on the white
label below the DIP switch block on the controller's
cover.
Table 6 describes the FC bus and SA bus devices
addresses for Johnson Controls MS/TP
communications bus applications.
Refer to the MS/TP Communications Bus Technical
Bulletin (LIT-12011034) for more information on
controller device addresses and how to set them on
MS/TP buses.
