The Universal Controller Open XP (OPN-UCXP) is a general purpose controller. It provides the communications circuitry, non-volatile memory, and removable screw terminals for I/O connections. The Universal Controller Open XP IO (OPN-UCXPIO) is an expander that connects to the expandable UC Open XP, in order to increase the number of inputs and outputs.
For system start-up and troubleshooting using Field Assistant or an Equipment Touch device Xnet Remote Expansion For communication with the UC Open XP IO expander. port Inputs 12 inputs configurable for 0-10 V, RTD Therm Dry, or 0-20mA. Inputs 1 and 2 may be used for pulse counting.
Profile as defined in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 135-2012 (BACnet) Annex L, Protocol Revision 9 Listed by UL-916, (Canadian Std C22.2 No. 205-M1983), CE, FCC Part 15-Subpart B-Class A UC Open XP IO specifications Power 24 Vac ±10%, 50–60 Hz 13 VA power consumption...
UL-916, (Canadian Std C22.2 No. 205-M1983), CE, FCC Part 15-Subpart B-Class Safety considerations WARNING Disconnect electrical power to the UC Open XP before wiring it. Failure to follow this warning could cause electrical shock, personal injury, or damage to the controller.
• Ensure that you are properly grounded. Screw the UC Open XP into an enclosed panel using the mounting slots on the cover plate. Leave about 2 in. (5 cm) on each side of the controller for wiring. See mounting dimensions in Specifications.
Installing the UC Open XP To wire for power Turn off the UC Open XP's power switch to prevent it from powering up before you can verify the correct voltage. Remove primary power from the 24 Vac transformer. Pull the screw terminal connector from the controller's power terminals labeled Gnd and 24 Vac.
Wire the controllers on an MS/TP or ARC156 network segment in a daisy-chain configuration. If the UC Open XP is at either end of a network segment, connect a BT485 to the UC Open XP. Insert the power screw terminal connector into the UC Open XP's power terminals.
(100% coverage) with TC drain wire Inputs The UC Open XP has 12 inputs that accept the following signal types. Signal Type Description Thermistor Precon type 2 (10 kOhm at 77°F). Input voltages should be from 0.489 Vdc to 3.825 Vdc for thermistors.
• ON to OFF to ON time (full cycle) is msec * The UC Open XP can perform pulse counting for dry contact or voltage inputs if you assign the input to a Pulse to Analog Input microblock. Binary outputs The UC Open XP has 6 binary outputs.

Installing the UC Open XP Connect the analog output wiring to the screw terminals on the UC Open XP and to the controlled device. Set the AO Mode Select jumper to the type of device you are wiring the output to.
You can mount the UC Open XP IO in one of the following locations: • On top of a UC Open XP, using the two allen cap screws provided. Connect Gnd to Gnd, Xnet- to Xnet-, Xnet+ to Xnet+. UC Open XP and...

10 pulses per second. Minimum pulse width (on or off time) required for each pulse is 50 msec. Binary outputs The UC Open XP IO has 8 binary outputs. Each output is a dry contact that must be powered from a Class 2 power source. To size output wiring, consider the following: •...
WARNING Do not apply 24 Vac to these universal inputs. Connect binary output wiring to the BO screw terminals on the UC Open XP IO and to the controlled device. Wire GND for each binary output to its even-numbered terminal.
One Wireless Adapter • One Equipment Touch ZS sensors You can wire up to 15 ZS sensors to the UC Open XP's Rnet port. ZS sensors can share the Rnet with the devices listed above. NOTES • A control program can use no more than 5 ZS sensors, so you must use multiple control programs if your Rnet network has more than 5 sensors.
Installing the UC Open XP IO expander SPT sensors You can wire SPT sensors to the UC Open XP's Rnet port. An Rnet can consist of any of the following combinations of devices wired in a daisy-chain or star configuration: •...
Wire the sensors to the controller's Rnet port. NOTE If the Rnet has multiple SPT Standard sensors, you must give each a unique address on the Rnet. For basic user instructions, see the SPT Sensors Owner Guide. For more detailed instructions, see the Carrier Sensors Installation Guide.
Green Wireless sensor overview The Carrier wireless sensors, designed for zone control, are low-power wireless devices that use light-harvesting through solar panels as their primary power source. The wireless line of sensors includes the models shown in the list below. All are available in 868, 902, and 928 MHz radio frequency. The sensors are thermistor-based temperature sensors that may optionally sense humidity.
Installing the UC Open XP IO expander The following is a list of all available wireless devices: • Standard • Plus • Pro-F • Motion/Lux Sensor • Window/Door Sensor • Adapter To configure the control program for the desired user interaction with the sensor, see the Wireless Sensors Application Guide.
To wire an Equipment Touch to the UC Open XP NOTE The Equipment Touch requires a 24 Vac power supply. It is not powered by the Rnet. CAUTION Carrier controllers can share a power supply as long as you: •...

Partially cut, then bend and pull off the outer jacket of the cable. Do not nick the inner insulation. Strip about .25 inch (.6 cm) of the inner insulation from each wire. Wire the UC Open XP's Rnet+ and Rnet- terminals to the terminals of the same name on the Equipment Touch's connector.
This Installation Guide Prepare a wire list using the points list. Refer to Appendix A (page 33). Use the wire list and the following installation procedures to install and wire I/O points to your UC Open XP and expander, if applicable.

Installing the UC Open XP into an i-Vu® Control System Click Close again. 10 Right-click on the programmable controller in the controller list and select Check Status from the list. The status of the controller should say File Mismatch. 11 Click the Download All Content button.
Local access to the UC Open XP Local access to the UC Open XP You can use the following items as a local user interface to an Open controller. These items let you access the controller information, read sensor values, and test the controller.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting If you have problems mounting, wiring, or addressing the UC Open XP or the UC Open XP IO, contact Carrier Control Systems Support. NOTE To help you troubleshoot, obtain a Module Status (Modstat) from the controller and review the System Error and Warning details.
Power Lights when power is being supplied to the expander. NOTE The UC Open XP is protected by internal solid state Polyswitches on the incoming power and network connections. These Polyswitches are not replaceable and will reset themselves if the condition that caused the fault returns to normal.
To restore defaults CAUTION This erases all archived information and user-configuration settings. You will have to reconfigure all custom settings. It is recommended to restore the factory defaults only under the guidance of Carrier Control Systems Support. To erase volatile memory data and restore factory default configuration settings: Turn off the UC Open XP's power switch.
To determine when to replace the battery, remove power and measure the voltage. If the voltage is below 2.9 volts, you need to replace the battery. CAUTION Power must be ON to the UC Open XP when replacing the battery, or your date, time, and trend data will be lost.
