ECY-400 Series
Product Description
The ECY-400 Series controllers are designed to control various building automation applications such as air handling units, multi-zone applications,
chillers, boilers, pumps, cooling towers, and roof top units. They support BACnet/IP communications and are listed BACnet Building Controllers (B-BC).
These programmable controllers come with an embedded web server that enables web-based application configuration and a visualization interface.
They also feature embedded scheduling, alarming, and logging. Control logic and graphic user interface can be customized as required for the applica-
tion.
General Installation Requirements
For proper installation and subsequent operation of each controller, pay special attention to the following recommendations:
£
Upon unpacking the product, inspect the contents of the carton for shipping damages. Do not install damaged modules.
£
Avoid areas where corroding, deteriorating or explosive vapors, fumes or gases may be present.
£
Ensure the mounting surface can support the controller, DIN rail, and any user-supplied enclosure.
£
Allow for proper clearance around the controller's enclosure and wiring terminals to provide easy access for hardware configuration and mainte-
nance, and to ventilate heat generated by the controller.
£
The preferred mounting orientation is horizontal, but the controller can be installed in any orientation as long as the internal temperature is within the
recommended range. Orient the controller with the ventilation slots and power supply input terminal block connectors towards the top to permit
proper heat dissipation. When installed in an enclosure, select one that provides sufficient surface area to dissipate the heat generated by the con-
troller and by any other devices installed in the enclosure. A metal enclosure is preferred. If necessary, provide active cooling for the enclosure.
£
The controller's Specsheet specifies the power consumption (amount of heat generated), the operating temperature range, and other environmental
conditions the controller is designed to operate under.
£
Ensure that all equipment is installed according to local, regional, and national regulations.
£
If the controller is used and/or installed in a manner not specified by Distech Controls, the functionality and the protection provided by the controller
may be impaired.
£
SELV (Separated Extra Low Voltage) inputs/outputs must be connected to other SELV equipment inputs/outputs.
£
It is recommended that the controller(s) be kept at room temperature for at least 24 hours before installation to allow any condensation that may
have accumulated due to low temperature during shipping/storage to evaporate.
£
Do not drop the controller or subject it to physical shock.
Any type of modification to any Distech Controls product will void the product's warranty.
Take reasonable precautions to prevent electrostatic discharges to the controller when installing, servicing or operating the
controller. Discharge accumulated static electricity by touching one's hand to a well-grounded object before working with the
controller.

  • Page 9: Wired Connection

    Figure 10: Finding the Controller’s MAC Address There are two methods to connect to the controller: wired (Ethernet connection) or wireless (with the ECLYPSE Wi-Fi Adapter). Wired Connection Network connections can be daisy-chained. Figure 11: Communications Wiring By default, Bridge mode is enabled for the Primary and Secondary Ethernet ports and disabled for the Subnet-IP (Auxiliary) port. When ports are bridged, the controllers connected to these ports are part of the same network, and a fail-safe relay automatically relays communication across the bridged ports in the event of power loss.
