Communication Wiring - - Protocols
General —
Protocols are the communication languages spoken by
control devices. The main purpose of a protocol is to
communicate information in the most efficient method
possible. Different protocols exist to provide different
kinds of information for different applications. In the BAS
application, many different protocols are used, depending
on manufacturer. Protocols do not change the function of
a controller; just make the front end user different.

The RTU Open can be set to communicate on four
different protocols: BACnet, Modbus, N2, and LonWorks.
Switch 3 (SW3) on the board is used to set protocol and
baud rate. Switches 1 and 2 (SW1 and SW2) are used to
set the board's network address. See Fig. 76 and 77 for
protocol switch settings and address switches. The 3rd
party connection to the RTU Open is through plug J19.
See Fig. 78 for wiring.
NOTE: Power must be cycled after changing the SW1- - 3
switch settings.
Refer to the RTU Open Controller Integration Guide
(Catalog No. 11- - 808- - 428- - 01) for more detailed information
on protocols, 3rd party wiring, and networking.
