Product Description

The BACstat II is a line of network room sensors/thermostats with a custom
LCD display and pushbutton interface. They can communicate directly on a
BACnet MS/TP network or Delta's proprietary LINKnet network.
They are capable of displaying a wide-range of digital or analog values,
including setpoints, temperature, air flow, heating and cooling status, fan
speed, valve and damper position, and more. When connected on a BACnet
MS/TP network they function as independent BACnet sensors or thermostats.
When connected to a Controller on a LINKnet network they provide
programmable remote sensor and expanded I/O capabilities. BACstats that are
hardware revision 4 or greater can be flash loaded over the network, and have
termination resistors that are jumper selectable.
The DNS-24 models are network sensors they have multiple onboard sensor options including temperature
Humidity, CO2 and motion, but do not have any outputs or internal control algorithms. The DNT-T103 has 1
extra input, 3 binary outputs and a number of built-in application control strategies. The DNT-T221 has 2
extra inputs, 2 analog and 1 binary output and built-in application control strategies. As a result, DNT
BACstats are capable of stand-alone control when directly connected on an MS/TP network.

The Delta Controls DNS-24 thermostat displays temperature as one of the digital or analog values on its custom LCD screen. It can show room temperature and setpoints in degrees Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F), such as 21°C or 71°F.
