BAS-SVX084A-EN
All wiring must comply with the National Electrical Code™ (NEC) and local codes.
Ensure that 24 Vac power supplies are consistent in regards to grounding. Avoid sharing 24 Vac
between controllers.
Avoid over tightening cable ties and other forms of cable wraps. This can damage the wires
inside the cable.
Do not run communication cable alongside or in the same conduit as 24 Vac power. This
includes the conductors running from TRIAC-type inputs.e
In open plenums, avoid running wire near lighting ballasts, especially thos using 277 Vac.
Use Trane purple communication wire without terminators, for the zone sensor communication
stubs from Symbio 210 controller IMC terminals to the zone sensor communication module.
Zone sensor communication wiring length limit of 328 feet (100 meters).
Use CAT5 or CAT5e non-shielded twisted pair, Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors for BACnet/
IP installations.
Cable length limit is 100 meters (328 feet)
Connect the Ethernet cable coming into the Symbio 210 controller RJ45 jack marked #1.
Connect an Ethernet cable going to the next controller in the daisy chain to the RJ45 jack marked
#2. See Figure 8, p. 22
Use CAT5 or CAT5e non-shielded twisted pair, Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors for BACnet/
IP installations.
Cable length limit is 100 meters (328 feet).
Connect the Ethernet cable from the Symbio 210 controller RJ45 jack marked #1 back to the
switch port dedicated for this controller. See Figure 8, p. 22.
