  • Page 5 1.2.1 NCLOSURE The enclosure cover of the Matrix Area Controller uses a hinged-door design complete with lock and key. The design intent of the enclosure door is meant to provide flexibility for confined spaces where one may not have enough space to open the cover fully and still access the interior area of the enclosure.
  • Page 6 Below is an illustration of the hardware layout of the Matrix Area Controller. The device includes connection ports for Main Power, EIA-485 network connectivity and Ethernet connectivity. Depending on the model of Matrix Area Controller you have purchased, your application may involve using one of the or both EIA-485 network ports.
  • Page 7 1.3.2 OWER EQUIREMENTS This product requires a transformer capable of providing 24VAC power to the Matrix Area Controller. Use a UL listed 24VAC transformer. To connect power, use the supplied two-position terminal plug. The output leads from the transformer should be connected to the terminal plug. The terminal plug is then connected into the socket marked J1 on the PCB.
  • Page 8 Communication connections should be made with care. To avoid conflicts with existing networks, it is recommended all communication configuration of the Matrix Area Controller be performed prior to connecting physical media from the building automation system. Refer to the Matrix Area Controller Quick Start Guide or the AspectStudio On-Line Help System for additional information.
  • Page 9 Source High Reference Wire (SH, commonly used for serial networks that utilize a reference wire for electrical stability). The Matrix Area Controller should be installed at an electrical end of the EIA-485 network. Avoid network topologies where the network is “t-tapped” or “starred”.
  • Page 10 LED Position Notes This LED will flash anytime data is transmitted by the Matrix Area Controller to the field bus network. On an active network, this light should flash anytime the device passes a network token to another device or routes a request made by another device.
