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.
