Windows PC software, M-View, to access the M-Controller config database. Additional RS-485 port can be programmed through Menu to either work as a Modbus RTU port for BAS or SCADA (as default) or work as a BACnet port to connect QEL BAC-Box, which supports BACnet/IP protocol. -

24VDC nominal, range 18 to 30VDC 24VAC nominal, range 15 to 24VAC 50/60HZ Note: M-Controller II has full-wave rectifier and half-wave rectifier circuit on board for flexibility. You will damage devices if you mix half wave and full wave rectifiers on the same AC source. - Page 6 The switch can be Q-Switch or any ON-OFF switch.

Backlighting is provided for the display in case of low lighting conditions. It is recommended that controllers be installed 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor, at approximate eye level. Securely mount the M-Controller using the appropriate screws. M-Controller II System Operation Manual - 8 - 84350-201-001 Rev C... -
Page 9: Cabling
We recommend using BELDEN 9841 for communications. This wire has 120 ohms input impendence, which will eliminate RS-485 communication problems. QEL warrantees and support only covers installation with proper cable. If in doubt please contact QEL support personnel. 4.3 Connectors... - Page 10 General Guideline: Old M-Controller uses full-wave rectifier only, if the M-Controller II is supposed to replace the old M-Controller, use TB7 for input power Q5 and Q8 both have full-wave and half-wave rectifier Old M-Relay, old M-Annunciator and QRP have a full-wave rectifier only ...

BOTH ends of the RS485 loop. Short and medium length modbus/485 loops can operate without the terminating resistor. Longer runs may require the terminating resistors. But adding a terminator dramatically increases power consumption. All QEL equipment supplies the end-of-line resistor on the circuit card. It is enabled or disabled with a shunt jumper. - Page 12 Devices and Ports: The RS-485 standard allows up to 32 devices on each communication line. The M-Controller supports up to 256 QEL devices on each RS-485 port. The M-Controller does not need to be at the end of the line. The M-Controller has four RS-485 ports for remote devices (digital sensors and I/O modules).
