DIP switches allow you choose your protocol and baud rate; BACnet, Modbus, Johnson N2 or LonWorks. This document will serve as the reference guide for integrating RTU-MP into the BAS. It should be read thoroughly, understood, and all functions performed by the group installing or commissioning the BAS.

The RTU-MP is an effective solution to minimize the amount of equipment change necessary to communicate with different protocols. Currently, the four most common protocols are: BACnet, Modbus, N2, and LonWorks.
Turn off the RTU-MP's power. NOTE Changes made to the switches when the RTU-MP is on will not take effect until the RTU-MP has been power cycled! Using the rotary switches SW1 and SW2, set a unique MS/TP MAC address for the RTU-MP. Set the MSB (SW1) switch to the tens digit of the address, and set the LSB (SW2) switch to the ones digit.
(PICS). Turn off the RTU-MP's power. NOTE Changes made to the switches when the RTU-MP is on will not take effect until the RTU-MP has been power cycled! Using the rotary switches, set a unique Modbus slave address for the RTU-MP. Set the MSB (SW1) switch to the tens digit of the address, and set the LSB (SW2) switch to the ones digit.

(9600, 19.2k, 38.4k, or 76.8k bps). NOTE Use the same baud rate and communication settings for all controllers on the network segment. The RTU-MP is fixed at 8 data bits, No Parity, and 1 Stop bit for this protocol's communications. Baud Selection Table...
LSB (SW2) switch to the ones digit. Valid N2 slave addresses are 01-99. EXAMPLE To set the RTU-MP’s N2 slave address to 01, point the arrow on the MSB (SW1) switch to 0 and the arrow on the LSB (SW1) switch to 1.
Configuring the RTU-MP for LonWorks Option Card Turn off the RTU-MP's power. NOTES Changes made to the switches when the RTU-MP is on will not take effect until the RTU-MP has ○ been power cycled! The controller’s rotary address switches are not used when the LON-OC is installed. That’s because ○...

The following example shows the DIP Switches set for 38.4k baud and the LON-OC enabled. Plug the LON-OC's ribbon cable into Comm Option Port J15 on the RTU-MP. See illustration below. CAUTION! The controller must be OFF before being connected.
External Interface File (XIF) information. LonWorks uses the XIF to determine the points (network variables) that are available from a device. The RTU-MP has a set of predefined network variables. These variables can be bound or accessed by the network management tool.
Virtual BACview is a freeware software application that mimics the BACview6 Handheld. The USB Link cable (USB-L) is required to connect a computer to the RTU-MP board. The USB Link cable connects a PC's USB port to the J12 local access port on the RTU-MP. This program functions and operates identical to the BACview Handheld.

2. Select 1 of the 12 months and 1 of the 31 days of that month. The RTU-MP will now ignore the Daily schedule for the specific day and time you selected and follow the Holiday Schedule for this period.
DI On/Off A hard-wired input on the RTU-MP will command the unit to start/stop. Inputs 3, 5, 8, and 9 on plug J5 can be hard-wired to command the unit to start/stop. NOTE Scheduling can either be controlled via the unit or the BAS, but NOT both.
3 minute minimum time delay between staging up or down. Any time the compressors are running, the RTU-MP will stage down the compressors if the SAT becomes less than the cooling low supply air setpoint. After a compressor is staged off, it may be started again after a normal time--guard period and the supply air temperature has increased above the low supply air setpoint.
Power Exhaust If an optional exhaust fan is used and controlled by the RTU-MP, it can be enabled based on damper position or by occupancy. If configured for continuous occupied operation, it will be energized whenever the controller is in the occupied mode and disabled when in the noccupied mode.
Installation Indoor Air Quality If the optional indoor air quality sensor is installed, the RTU-MP will attempt to maintain indoor air quality within the space at the user-configured differential setpoint by modulating the outdoor air damper/economizer. The set point is the difference between the indoor air quality and an optional outdoor air quality sensor.
Demand Limiting If the RTU-MP receives a level 1 (one degree offset), 2 (two degree offset), or a 3 (4 degree offset) to the BACnet demand limit variable, the controller expands the heating and cooling setpoints by the configured demand limit setpoint value and remain in effect until the BACnet demand limit variable receives a 0 value.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting The RTU-MP controller acts as an intelligent embedded thermostat to the rooftop unit, but can be monitored and controlled from a third party network. For this reason, there are 3 distinct components for troubleshooting. The three parts to the system are: •...
• Replace the RTU-MP. BACnet MSTP Check the following to troubleshoot your RTU-MP: Verify that the BAS and controller are both set to speak the BACnet MS/TP protocol on the Comm Selector DIP switches DS3 - DS6. Verify that the BAS and the controller are both set for the same baud rate: Comm Selector DIP switches DS2 and DS1 ○...

Any positive integer is a valid number. The default is 10 and should be ideal for the majority of applications. In cases where the RTU-MP is the target of many requests, this number could be increased as high as 100 or 200.
Modbus Check the following to troubleshoot your RTU-MP: Verify that the BAS and controller are both set to speak the Modbus RTU protocol on the Comm Selector DIP switches DS3 - DS6. Verify that the BAS and the controller are both set for the same baud rate: Comm Selector DIP switches DS2 and DS1 ○...

BACnet Master Slave/Token Passing (MS/TP) is used for communicating BACnet over a sub-network of BACnet-only controllers. This is the default Carrier communications protocol. Each RTU-MP acts as an MS/TP Master. The speed of an MS/TP network can range from 9600 to 76.8K baud. Physical Addresses can be set from 01 to 99.

This accessory card must be ordered separately and is connected by attaching its ribbon cable into the J15 connector on the RTU-MP. The RTU-MP’s baud rate (DS1 and DS2 on SW3) must be set to 38.4k to communicate with the LON-OC. The address switches (SW1 and SW2) are not used with LonWorks.
