General Description; Features; Specifications - Macurco Modbus RS-485 User Instructions

This equipment may not function effectively below 0°F or above 125°F (-18°C or above 52°C). Using the detector outside of this
temperature range may adversely affect product performance and result in sickness or death.

General Description

The Macurco MRS-485 adapter is an accessory used to convert the 4-20mA analog signal from Macurco 6-Series type detectors to
a digital signal for use with multipoint addressable systems. The Macurco MRS-485 simply plugs into the back of the detector and a
single screw fastens it in place. The MRS-485 accepts the 4-20mA output and is powered from the same connection as the
detector. The MRS-485 has the ability to interface with Building Automation Systems, Control Panels or other Control Devices that
accept Modbus communications.

Features

 The Macurco MRS-485 interfaces the detector power and 4-20mA output lines with a mounted connector
 The MRS-485 monitors sensor type, gas level and trouble status communications from any of the Macurco 6-Series detectors
 Communication is on a MODBUS serial line with a "Two-Wire" electrical interface in accordance with EIA/TIA-485 standard
using
 RTU transmission mode
 Commercial type enclosure to protect and support the electronics
 Tricolor LED indicates power, test and communication status
 Mounts behind the detector inside of a standard 4" x 4" electrical box
 Held in place on the back of the 6-Series detector with a single screw
 8 bit dip switch address selector
 RS-485 termination uses 4 pin connector with jumper to select termination: The user selects no termination or one of the two
 Modbus line termination options
 Communications connections include signal (A and B), common and shield terminals
 Intended for use in non-hazardous areas such as parking garages, warehouses or other commercial facilities
