The Metasys
Network Automation Engine (NAE)
®
and Network Integration Engine (NIE) are Ethernet-
based, supervisory devices that connect BAS
networks to IP networks. NAEs and NIEs monitor
and control field-level building automation devices,
including HVAC equipment, lighting, security, and
fire safety equipment. Use this document to install
the NAE or NIE. Figure 1 shows the NAE55 engine,
Figure 2 shows the NIE55 engine.

Important: For any other custom integrations,
contact your local Systems Integration Services
(SIS) team before an upgrade. Updated drivers
are available on request.
In this installation guide, the term network engine
applies to any NAE55 or NIE55 model, unless
otherwise stated. For installation instructions on
the secure NAE55, refer to the NAE-S Installation
Instructions (Part No. 24-10051-108). For installation
instructions on the NAE55s that are approved
for Metasys system smoke control applications,
refer to the NAE55 Installation Instructions (Part No.
24-10051-00132).
Note: The NIE55 network engine is available
at Release 9.0, but beginning at Release 10.0,
the NIE55 is no longer offered. However, repair
models of the NIE55 network engine are still
available. To order a repair NIE55, specify MS-
NIE5510-703 (no modem) or MS-NIE5511-703
(with modem).
