WT-BAC-IP
Application
The WT-BAC-IP Gateway is a multi-function device that performs wireless mesh network management tasks and
provides bidirectional communication between the wireless devices of the Johnson Controls® WT-4000 Series
Pneumatic-to-Direct Digital Control (DDC) Room Thermostat System and the BACnet® IP Client. The gateway
communicates wirelessly with its associated devices and performs all the high-level system functions, such as
BACnet object creation and object sourcing. This robust mesh network supports up to 100 wireless devices per
WT-BAC-IP Gateway.
The WT-BAC-IP Gateway is designed for indoor, intra-building applications only. The gateway uses
direct-sequence, spread-spectrum RF technology, and operates on the 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical
(ISM) band. The gateway meets the IEEE 802.15.4 standard for low power, low duty cycle RF transmitting
systems.
IMPORTANT: Use the WT-BAC-IP Gateway only to provide an input to equipment under normal operating
conditions. Where failure or malfunction of the gateway could lead to personal injury or property damage to the
controlled equipment or other property, additional precautions must be designed into the control system.
Incorporate and maintain other devices, such as supervisory or alarm systems or safety or limit controls,
intended to warn of or protect against failure or malfunction of the gateway.
