    INSTALLATION & OPERATIONS GUIDE | MICROSET 4 Introduction The Microset 4 is a wall-mounted BACnet smart sensor. It is designed for applications with multiple zones, such as a restaurant or a shopping mall; or split zone control sites, like an office setting where occupants share a single zone split into multiple working areas.
  • Page 8: Specifications

    UL 916 Certified System compatibility The Microset 4 sensors work with legacy VLCs and ROCs, but also support optional new features that require a new ROC to support. These features include transfer of CO2 data to the VLC, password protection of Service Mode, user control of LEDs, and data support for controlling a room’s windows and lights.
  • Page 9: Mounting

    Microset 4 can be installed. For example, architects may not understand how the placement of windows, doors, air registers, printers, and other equipment impact temperature sensors. Or if a Microset 4 can be installed in an all-glass atrium without regard for the direction of the sun.

  • Page 15: Ms/Tp Lan Wiring

    Each MS/TP Microset 4 employs a high-quality EIA–485 transceiver and exerts unit load on the MS/ TP LAN. The maximum number of MS/TP Microset 4 units that can be installed per MS/TP segment depends on the device the MS/TP Microset 4s are being connected to. Refer to the BACtalk System Design Guide, LTBT-TM-SYSDSGN, for more information, or the user documentation of the global controller that provides the MS/TP trunk to determine how many devices it can support.
