Introduction What is the UC Open controller? The UC Open is a general purpose controller that provides the communications circuitry, non-volatile memory, and removable screw terminals for I/O connections. Specifications Driver drv_ucopen_std Maximum number of control programs* Maximum number of...
• Ensure that you are properly grounded. Screw the UC Open into an enclosed panel using the mounting slots on the coverplate. Leave about 2 in. (5 cm) on each side of the controller for wiring. Mounting hole dimensions 5 1/4" (13.3 cm) between mounting slot center lines.
Verify that the Power LED is on and the Run LED is blinking. Addressing the UC Open You must give the UC Open an address that is unique on the network. You can address the UC Open before or after you wire it for power.
Ones (1's) switch to 5. 10's CAUTION The factory default setting is 00 and must be changed to successfully install your UC Open. Wiring for communications The UC Open communicates using BACnet on the following types of network segments: •...
Wire the controllers on a BACnet MS/TP or BACnet ARC156 network segment in a daisy-chain configuration. If the UC Open is at either end of a network segment, connect a BT485 to the UC Open. Insert the power screw terminal connector into the UC Open's power terminals.
Binary outputs The UC Open has 5 binary outputs. You can connect each output to a maximum of 24 Vac/26 Vdc. Each output is a dry contact rated at 1 A, 24 V maximum and is normally open. To size output wiring, consider the following: •...
Verify that the UC Open's power and communications connections work properly. Pull the screw terminal connector from the controller's power terminals labeled Gnd and Hot. Connect the input wiring to the screw terminals on the UC Open. NOTES Connect the shield wire to the GND terminal with the ground wire.
Installing the UC Open Wiring devices to the UC Open's Rnet port The Rnet communicates at a rate of 115 kbps and should be wired in a daisy-chain or hybrid configuration. Supports up to • 15 wireless and/or ZS sensors (5 per control program) •...
To wire the Wireless Adapter for wireless sensors WARNING Do not apply line voltage (mains voltage) to the Wireless Adapter. The Carrier wireless sensors 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 To configure the control program for the desired user interaction with the sensor, see the Wireless Sensors Application Guide. For detailed instructions, see the Wireless Sensors Installation Guide. To wire, power, and mount the Wireless Adapter NOTES •...
Daisy-chained on the Rnet with ZS sensors or a Wireless Adapter, use the standard 4-conductor Rnet ○ wiring and follow the wiring instructions To wire ZS sensors to the UC Open (page 11). The only device on the Rnet, you can use a 2-conductor cable instead of the standard 4-conductor Rnet ○...
Installing the UC Open Wire the UC Open's Rnet+ and Rnet- terminals to the terminals of the same name on the Equipment Touch's connector. NOTE If using shielded wire, connect the shield wire and the ground wire to the Gnd terminal.
This Installation Guide Prepare a wire list using the points list. Refer to Appendix A (page 23). Use the wire list and the following installation procedures to install and wire I/O points to your UC Open. The i-Vu® or Field Assistant application Upload the controller to the database by selecting the router in the navigation tree.

Installing the UC Open Select the controller in the list on the page and click Upload. If you are adding a new control program, click . A dialog window appears. Enter a name for your control program in Display Name and select your controller in the Controller drop-down list.
Local access to the UC Open Local access to the UC Open 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, 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. LED's The LED’s indicate if the controller is speaking to the devices on the network.
NOTE If you resolve the issue but the Error LED does not turn off, cycle power to the controller. Serial number If you need the UC Open's serial number when troubleshooting, the number is on a sticker on the back of the main controller board.
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 when replacing the battery, or your date, time, and trend data will be lost.
