Opera 6000 Installation Manuallines

Opera model 6000 Installation Guidelines
All wiring must conform to local building codes, regulations and laws.
1 Use ½ in EMT conduit for all wiring.
2 Install enclosed 120/24 vac transformer, 5 va per sensor or controller, using 18 to 20 AUG
two conductor wire. Do not tie the secondary to ground. Connect multiple sensors. Ensure
that the polarity of the connections are the same at each sensor or controller.
3 Connect relay contacts (usually relay 1) to ventilation system. Use a magnetic starter so that
the sensor contacts energize the starter coil (either 24 Vac or 120 Vac) and not the fan
motor directly.
4 For multiple sensors, chain a shielded twisted pair cable 20 to 22 AUG from screw 6 and 7
on one sensor, to the next and continue chain to the last sensor. Maintain the same polarity
on each unit. Do not use star configuration. T connections should be less than 3 meters (10
feet) from the chain. Best to make all chain connections at the sensors to avoid T
connection.
5 Move the end-of-line jumper (the third one) to the on position (UP) on the first
sensor/controller on the chain and the last sensor/controller on the chain. The controller
can be located anywhere on the chain. Ensure its EOL jumper is off if it is in the middle. The
Addresses assigned to sensor/controllers can be in any location on chain.
6 Power on the units. They will display the gas reading. To verify if the sensors are
communicating correctly, change setting no. 56 from 0 to 1 to turn on the network display.
Press ↑ and ← simultaneously to save. The unit will display each sensor connected. If the
sensor does not display the other sensors scrolling by, check the following ;

7 To test communication, press and hold the up button on sensors for 5 seconds to start
manual mode (5 minutes). This will close the relay 1 on the unit and all of the other units on
the network.
Opera series 6000, Configuration Guidelines for CAN network
Use a Central Controller or Go Controller-less
A basic model 6000 controller serves as the central connection point for the ventilation system. 60XX
sensors transmit alarm messages to the controller. The controller will display up to 32 sensors on the
network (x2 for double units), their gas types, gas concentration, and alarm status for each. The three
relays on board can be configured for different levels of gas or to operate different ventilation
systems/zones/groups.
each unit has a unique address, setting 39, with no duplicates
the end-of-line jumpers are set on units at end of chain only
the polarity of the communication cable and the 24 vac
wire connections for shorts etc.
