NIE39/NIE49 Installation Instructions
MS-NIE39xx-2, MS-NIE49xx-2
Application
Important: NIEx9s are compatible with Metasys® system Release 7.0 and later. You may apply the dual trunk
integration feature to NIEx9s purchased prior to the current release by using the NIEx9 Driver Manager
tool. For information on how to apply the latest package and license files that support dual trunks, refer
to the NIEx9 Driver Manager Application Note (LIT-12011919).
The Network Integration Engine (NIE) 39 and 49 are web-enabled, Ethernet-based, supervisory devices that integrate
the Metasys Building Management System to other standard building management communication technologies.
Integrations include the BACnet® protocol, L
European Standard EN 1434-3), KNX, and other third party proprietary protocols for monitoring and supervising a
wide variety of HVAC, lighting, security, fire, electrical and thermal measuring and access control equipment.
For the Modbus and M-Bus protocols, one NIE39 or NIE49 can support two integrations: two Modbus, two M-Bus,
or one of each, significantly expanding the engine's flexibility. See
applications.
Important: The NIEx9 is shipped with a license and driver for the communication protocol that was ordered. If you
re-image the engine, the license and driver are deleted and the engine is not able to communicate with
the required protocol. If you need to re-image the engine, use the NIEx9 Driver Manager first to preserve
the protocol driver and license file before you re-image. For details, refer to the NIEx9 Driver Manager
Application Note (LIT-12011919).
This document describes how to install an NIE39 or NIE49, which is referred to collectively as NIE, unless specified
otherwise.
Figure 1
shows the components of the NIE.
Installation
Follow these guidelines when installing the NIE:
Transport the NIE in the original container to minimize vibration and shock damage to the NIE.
Verify that all the parts shipped with the NIE.
Do not drop the NIE or subject it to physical shock.
Do not open the NIE housing (except the data protection battery compartment). The NIE has no user-serviceable
parts inside.
Parts Included
one NIE with removable terminal plugs
one data protection battery (installed and connected when the NIE is shipped)
one Installation Instructions sheet
Materials and Special Tools Needed
three M4 (#8) fasteners appropriate for the mounting surface
one 20 cm (8 in.) or longer piece of DIN rail and appropriate hardware for mounting the DIN rail

  • Page 2: Location Considerations

    Do not mount the NIE on surfaces prone to vibration or in areas where electromagnetic emissions can interfere with NIE communication. • Do not obstruct the NIE housing ventilation holes. • Do not mount power transformers below the NIE. NIE39/NIE49 Installation Instructions...

    Figure 1 for the location of NIE ports, modular jacks, and terminal blocks. Depending on the model, an NIE39/NIE49 supports either an MS/TP field bus trunk, an N2 Bus trunk, or a L ORKS network trunk. All models support two vendor integrations, such as two Modbus, two M-Bus, or one of each. Or if a KNX integration is required, three KNX IP Gateways are supported for one NIE39/NIE49.
  • Page 5: Serial Ports

    The Ethernet port, labeled ETHERNET, is an 8-pin RJ-45 network port (Figure 1) for connecting the NIE to Ethernet networks. NIE39/49 engines can connect to Ethernet networks at 10 or 100 Mbps. Use this port for connecting a Modbus TCP, M-Bus TCP, or KNX network. Wiring the NIE Important: Do not connect 24 VAC supply power to the NIE before finishing wiring and checking all wiring connections.
