Rough-in Conduit and Wiring WARNING: RISK OF DEATH BY ELECTRIC SHOCK! Before installing input power, make sure the upstream source of power is off or isolated. Follow appropriate Lockout/Tagout procedures as described in NFPA Standard 70E. AVERTISSEMENT: RISQUE DE MORT PAR ÉLECTROCUTION! Avant d'installer l'alimentation d'entrée, assurez-vous que la source d'alimentation en amont est éteinte ou isolée. -
Page 16: Rough-In Line And Control Conduit And Wiring
Rough-in Line and Control Conduit and Wiring The ERn enclosure requires line power and control wire terminations. For installation convenience all terminations are accessible from the front of the rack. A single phase line power and all required control wires may be pulled through any of the conduit knockouts provided, or other labeled locations. Note: Control (signal) wiring and power wiring must be run in separate conduit in accordance with local code. -
Page 17: Terminate Wiring
Chapter 3 Terminate Wiring Connect Line Power Wiring WARNING: All rack terminations must be done with the power off. Racks installed without an accessible power disconnect device cannot be serviced or operated safely. ERn enclosures are available in 100-120, 230 CE, and 240 VAC single phase configurations. The ERn enclosure requires a single phase, 20 amp (maximum) at 120 VAC input feed or a 15 amp (maximum) at 230 and 240 VAC. -
Page 18: Connect Control Wiring
Connect Control Wiring Note: All low voltage control cables must be run in separate conduit from power wires in accordance with local codes. Low voltage data connects to pluggable connectors on the left and right input/output boards of the ERn enclosure. The ERn2 includes only one each left and right I/O board while the ERn4 includes two of each. -

Page 22: Connect Ern Left I/O Data Terminations
Pull auxiliary control power wiring (typically a red / black wire pair) into the ERn enclosure through the conduit opening previously prepared. Strip 5 mm (3/16 in) of insulation from the ends of each wire pair. Remove the auxiliary power connector from the right I/O board. Loosen the terminal screws for as many auxiliary wire pairs as you are terminating. - Page 23 Connect to Serial RS-232 Integrators and users of advanced systems can interface with the Unison system through the RS-232 connection on the left I/O board. This connection provides an interface with external devices capable of sending or receiving RS-232. This connection can also receive serial commands from a transmitter and provide rack and system status when queried.

Page 25: Final Installation And Power Up
Chapter 4 Final Installation and Power Up It’s a good idea to look over the entire installation before applying power to the enclosure. WARNING: RISK OF DEATH BY ELECTRIC SHOCK! For your own safety, do not supply power to the enclosure until all installation is complete, connected circuits have been tested and found free of electrical shorts, and covers have been replaced. -
Page 26: Check Line Voltages
Check Line Voltages Check the voltage on your input terminals using a digital volt meter (DVM) before installing modules. WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Working inside the enclosure with power applied exposes you to the possibility of dangerous currents and voltages. Line voltages will be on the input terminals during this procedure. - Page 27 enclosure, or only a Paradigm Station Repeater module (P-REP) in the top module slot with an blank module below.

Install the BatteryPack Option (UBPO) Kit Note: An ERn enclosure supports the use of either the Unison RideThru Option (URTO) or the Unison BatteryPack Option (UBPO), but not both in the same enclosure. The BatteryPack Option (UBPO) kit provides battery power during power outages to the Paradigm Architectural Control Processor for up to 90 minutes (ERn with a single P-ACP) or up to 45 minutes (ERn4 with two Paradigm ACPs). - Page 31 Install the Unison BatteryPack on to the bottom of the ERn enclosure as pictured below. a: Insert the tabs from the UBPO into the slots in the ERn enclosure. Note: As the BatteryPack is mated to the rack, the connector on the BatteryPack and the connector receptacle installed in step 1a also mate.

Page 32: Install A Paradigm Repeater Or Dual Repeater Module
Install a Paradigm Repeater or Dual Repeater Module Both repeater module types may only be utilized in the top module slots of the ERn4 rack enclosure. The Paradigm Station Repeater (P-REP) module extends the system station bus length by 1,640 ft (500 m) and adds support for up to 30 additional stations. - Page 33 Terminate LinkConnect Control Wiring Note: Wire tie down locations provided on rear panel. Unison control stations communicate with the Paradigm Architectural Control Processor using the Echelon LinkPower network (LinkConnect). LinkConnect is based on Echelon LonWorks with LinkPower bidirectional protocol, and uses one pair of wires (data+ and data-). Termination is available for up to twelve home runs of LinkPower data runs utilizing Belden 8471 cable (or approved equal) plus one 14 AWG ESD drain wire when the data cable is not installed in grounded metal conduit.
- Page 34 Replace the connector on the top right I/O board. Terminate Auxiliary Power Auxiliary power is required when you are installing powered Unison control stations. ETC recommends using two 16 AWG (1.5mm ) stranded wires for 24 Vdc auxiliary power to the control station(s).
