Application
TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensors are wall-mounted
digital temperature and humidity sensors for use with
TAC I/A Series MicroNet Controllers. These sensors
feature Sensor Link (S-Link) communication protocol
that provides a simple two wire interface for power and
exchange of sensor and subbase information.
Available in twelve models, these TAC I/A Series
MicroNet Sensors provide integral analog to digital
conversion for elimination of electrical interference
between sensor and controller. An optional wiring
connection allows access to the TAC MicroNet

jack on the left side of each sensor. This jack allows
direct connection to a PC running WorkPlace Tech Tool
(WP Tech) or a third party Network Management Tool.
Each sensor also provides an S-Link jack on the right
side for connecting to a PDA running Pocket TAC I/A
software.
TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensors are suitable for
direct-wall, 2 x 4 electrical box, 1/4 DIN electrical box,
or surface box mounting.

    Installation The TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensor is packaged disassembled in one box and consists of three major parts: • A pre-wirable base plate for wiring to the controller S-Link and TAC MicroNet L ORKS network (LON) connections • An electronic assembly containing the sensors and associated circuitry •...
  • Page 5 Federal Communications Commission (FCC) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and may cause harmful interference if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions.
  • Page 6 Mounting TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensors can be direct-wall, 2 x 4 electrical box, 1/4 DIN electrical box, or surface box mounted. See Figure-1 and Figure-2 for appropriate mounting dimensions. (76.2) Dimensions shown are in inches (mm). 1-1/2 (38.1) 4-21/32 (118.5) 3-1/4 (82.6)
  • Page 7 Direct-wall Mount 1. Use mounting dimensions shown in Figure-1. 2. Feed S-Link wires through base plate. 3. If required, feed LON wires through base plate. 4. Using two appropriate screws (use drywall anchors as necessary), mount base plate to wall (Figure-3). Figure-3 Direct-wall Mounting.
  • Page 8 1/4 DIN Electrical Box Mount 1. Use mounting dimensions shown in Figure-2. 2. Feed S-Link wires from electrical box through base plate. 3. If required, feed LON wires through base plate. Caution: Failure to use vertical mounting holes as shown in Figure-5 may cause a short of the L network.
  • Page 9 Wiring The following electrical connections can be made to the TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensors: • Sensor Link (S-Link) Wiring • TAC MicroNet L network (LON) Wiring ORKS Caution: Do not connect any power wiring to the TAC I/A Series MicroNet Sensor. Failure to observe this precaution will damage the sensor.

  • Page 14 Errors: The Error frames display a value of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or a combination of any of these values. The value may indicate one or more errors as described in Table-2. For example, an Error frame display value of 17 indicates two errors (1 = EEPROM write or read error and 16 = Analog output writing error) since 1 + 16 = 17.
