SMART-NET NETWORK TOPOLOGY

SENSORS PER CONTROLLER

The Reliable Controls® SMART-Sensor™ is a networked sensor. SSs are interconnectedusing SMART-Net™ communication and networking. The maximum number of SSs thatmay be connected to an individual SMART-Net™ depends on the host controller.

SSs are daisy-chained, using either the RJ11 ports, or the terminal blocks provided. Anymix of SS models may be installed on a single daisy chain. SMART-Sensor EnoceanAccess Points™ (SSEAs) can also be added to the mix, however each SSEA uses up twoaddresses on a SMART-Net™.

Each SS (or SSEA) on a single SMART-Net™ must have a unique address from 1 to amaximum of 16. All SSs are shipped from the factory with a default address of 1.

MAXIMUM CABLE LENGTHS

The total combined cable length of a SMART-Net™ from the controller, including any daisy-chained SSs, to the final SS should not exceed 80 meters (250 ft). The actual maximumfunctional network length can vary based on the type of cable used. For longer networksand total cable length, use appropriate data cable with a lower resistance and capacitanceper meter (foot). Installing one or more SSX modules will also increase the number of SSsand total cable distance that can be installed (further details on the SSX are supplied laterin this section).

The following formulas can be used to calculate the maximum length of selected cable.

Rmax =Vmax

D =Rmax

Imax Rc

Where: D = distance in meters

Rmax = maximum total cable resistance

Rc = resistance per meter of cable

Vmax = maximum voltage drop (= 0.5 VDC)

Imax = maximum current

0.03 A per SMART-Sensor™ LED

0.005 A per SMART-Sensor™ LCD

0.015 A per SS with backlight

0.002 A per SS with CO2

Poor modular connector installation, high-resistance connections or excessive cable lengthmay cause the SMART-Net™ voltage to drop below the minimum necessary for SScommunication. If this occurs, a Power Lo message may appear on the screen of theaffected SS-L. On an SS model with no LCD screen, the Test LED will remain solid off whenconnected if it does not have sufficient voltage.

The recommended wire type is Category 3 or 5, 24AWG solid core. This allows the flexibilityof connecting RJ11 crimp connectors, but still works well for the terminal blocks.

USER GUIDE


SMART-SENSOR EXPANSION BOARD (SSX)

Each SMART-Sensor™ expansion board (SSX) provides five expansion ports that can beused as a central hub for field installed SSs. A centrally located SSX may reduce the wiringlength to individual SSs, resulting in more robust and error free communication.

Additionally, each SSX can be connected to an external power source for the purpose ofboosting the power to connected SSs, allowing the combined overall cable length of aSMART-Net™ to be maximized.

FIGURE 17: SMART-SENSOR™ EXPANSION BOARD

The use of the flat satin cable is not advised unless kept to a short distance. This wire istypically 28 AWG and is not designed for longer distance runs.

SSX PORTS

The SSX expansion board has six ports and an external power connector.

PORTS AND EXTERNAL POWER CONNECTOR

POWER

The SSX expansion board can be powered by an external power supply or it can bepowered by the host controller via the SMART-Net™ port. Connecting an external 12 VDCpower supply to the SSX expansion board will aid in maximizing the overall allowablecable length.

SS models with I/O, backlight, or CO2 require more current. An SSX is recommended forapplications where more than four SSs are installed on the same SMART-Net™ network orwhere the total combined cable length of a SMART-Net™ network exceeds 50 meters (150feet).

• Ports PROG SENS 1–5 connect SSs or an additional SSX to the SSX expansionboard

• The SMART-Net™ port connects the expansion board to the host controller ordaisy-chained SSX expansion boards

END OF LINE (EOL) TERMINATION

The SMART-Net™ may be used to extend the EIA-485 network from the host controller toconnected SSs, thereby providing operator workstation access to the network using an X-Port-2™ converter. If the EIA-485 network is extended and the SSX is the physical extremityof the network, the End-of-Line (EOL) termination jumpers (JP2 & JP3) of the SSX shouldbe installed, and the EOL jumpers/switches on the host controller should not be set.

If the SSX expansion board is not located at the physical extremity of the network, the EOLjumpers (JP2 & JP3) should be removed.

Whenever an SSX is installed consider using an external power supply to reduce voltagedrop and maximize the overall allowable cable length.

TO MOUNT THE SS

1 The SS should be installed in an open area 1.2 m (48”) to 1.5 m (60”) above thefloor in line with other wall mounted devices, or as otherwise required by localcodes or project documentation.

The SMART-Sensor™ can be mounted using one of three methods.

Mounting Method 1

A single device, 2 x 4 electrical box, or 2 x 4 mud ring is installed in the wall priorto mounting the controller backplate. This method is preferred, as it provides afirm mounting base for the sensor.

FIGURE 29: ELECTRICAL BOX MOUNTING

Use the two Phillips screws provided to attach the backplate to the underlyingelectrical box or mud ring.

Mounting Method 2

The backplate is screwed directly to the wall, with no electrical box or mud ring.Use suitable anchors and screws to secure the backplate to the wall. Thismethod is not recommended by Reliable Controls® because the SS is likely toloosen over time.

Mounting Method 3

The backplate is screwed to a metal/plastic/wood surface on a larger device oralternative location. Use two self-tapping (for metal or plastic surface) or woodscrews in this application.

The SMART-Sensor™ is intended to be installed in accordance with the local Electrical Codefor the country and district where it is installed, and in a manner acceptable to the localauthority having jurisdiction.

Ground yourself before touching the device to avoid damaging the electronics. Touch agrounded metal surface to discharge static electricity.

Do not use conductors larger than 24 AWG (0.25 mm2) to facilitate the proper installation ofan RJ11 modular connector at the host controller.

Do not mount the SS above, or on the surface of heat-producing sources, below coolingsources, near windows, behind obstructions, or in areas prone to infiltration. When mountedin or on hollow walls, ensure that the electrical box and penetration is insulated and/or thebackplate is mounted to an insulated subbase to prevent drafts external to the space frominfluencing the onboard thermistor.

RJ11 connectors for stranded and solid core conductors are not interchangeable. Usingthe wrong connector will cause intermittent communication. The appropriate connector forstranded conductors will have teeth on the gold plates that pierce the wire (this can be seenby looking at the side of the connector closely). Connectors for solid core wires have asingle jaw that wraps around the solid conductor.

WIRING DETAILS

OVERVIEW

SS and SS-L models all feature a 6-pole wiring terminal block on the backplate and aduplex RJ11 connection port on the rear of the sensor head, except -CO2 models do nothave a duplex RJ11 connection port. Either SMART-Net™ termination method may be usedfor easy installation and daisy-chain wiring topology of multiple SSs. Standardtelecommunications data cable such as CAT3 or CAT5 is commonly available and isrecommended for this application. For long distances solid core conductors arerecommended. SS-P, SS-DUCT, and SSEAs do not have RJ11 ports, and must beterminated using the four-wire connectors provided.

Four conductors are required to support SMART-Net™. If the application requiresconnection to the MACH-System using the RJ11 port at the bottom of someSMART-Sensors™, an additional 2 conductors must be run.

On all MACH-System controllers that support SMART-Net™ except the MACH-ProAir™ andMACH-ProZone™, a single RJ11 port is provided for connection to SMART-Net™. TheMACH-ProAir™ and MACH-ProZone™ controllers also have a second port for connectionwithout crimping.

CONFIGURING THE SS

Each controller can host multiple SSs on its SMART-Net™. After all the SSs have beeninstalled, if there is more than one SS connected to a controller, each SS must beconfigured with a unique address.

ADDRESSING THE SS

To address an SS that does not have an LCD screen, a DIP switch rack with four switchesis provided. Locate the DIP switch rack and configure the address by closing or openingthe appropriate switches as shown in Figure 44.

FIGURE 44: PROTECTOR DIRECTOR FOR THE SS, SS-P, AND THE SS-DUCT SHOWING THE ADDRESS CONFIGURATION

The 16 possible addresses are represented in binary and switch #4 (the switch located athe top) is the least significant bit. For example, to configure the SSEA as address #1 openswitches #1, 2, and 3 while closing switch #4.

Do not skip SS addresses. When the host controller encounters the first unpopulatedSMART-Sensor worksheet, the previous SS address will be interpreted as the last device andcommunication with higher addresses will not occur.

When addressing SSs be mindful of the maximum number of SSs supported by the hostcontroller.

VALUES DISPLAYED

The SMART-Sensor worksheet has ten rows. Each row (1–10) corresponds to the valuesthat will be displayed on the LCD of the SS-L and the order in which they will appear.

The point or object that is defined to be displayed in row number one will be displayedwhen the SS-L is in Idle mode.

The point or object that is defined to be displayed in row number two is the quick-adjustpoint. If a user presses either the or button while the SS-L is in Idle mode, thepresent value of the point defined in row two will be displayed.

If the point or object in row two is set to Can Change in the User Edit column, when thevalue is accessed as the quick-adjust point, the value will be displayed flashing steadily andmay be modified. If, however, the point or object is configured to Display Only in the UserEdit column then the value will still be displayed and will still flash steadily, but the value willnot be modified in the controller.

The SS-L only supports one decimal place. When the SS-L is configured for two decimals,the value will display properly in RC-Studio®, but the SS-L will show only one decimal place.On the SS-L display, a value of 5 or less on the second decimal place will round down, whilea value of 6 or more will round up. For example, a value of 71.15 shown in RC-Studio®, willbe displayed as 71.1 on the SS-L. And 71.16 will be displayed as 71.2 on the SS-L.

INPUT/OUTPUT POINT OPTION (-IO)

SMART-Sensor™ models with the -IO option feature two TRIAC outputs (except SS-DUCT models havesolid-state relays that switch AC or DC), and two onboard dry-contact/10k thermistor inputs. Theseinputs and outputs may be used to connect ancillary space-related field devices without consuminginputs and outputs on the host controller.

FIGURE 63: INTERNAL VIEW OF A SS-S-IO AND SS-DUCT-IO

INPUTS

The SS-IO inputs may be used to connect either dry-contacts or 10 k thermistors. The fielddevices wire directly to the input terminal block on the SS-IO. A variable (VAR) must becreated in the host controller to store the value of each input used. The variables thatrepresent the inputs are then referenced using row 7 and row 8 of the SMART-Sensorworksheet. To permit the SS-IO to define the values of these variables, the User Editcolumn must be configured for Can Change.

When the SS-IO inputs are configured for temperature, they have a maximum range of-40 to 120 °C (-40 to 248 °F).

CARBON DIOXIDE SENSOR OPTION (-CO2)

SMART-Sensor™ models with a CO2 sensor (SS-CO2) feature a 0–2000 PPM CO2 sensor that canaccurately measure a space’s Carbon Dioxide levels within ±50 PPM. The CO2 sensor has automaticcalibration built-in and only adds 2 mA current draw to the base model SS.

OVERVIEW

SMART-Sensor™ models with the -CO2 option have some significant differences from non-CO2 models, including:

FIGURE 67: SS-CO2 MODEL CIRCUIT BOARD

• The duplex RJ11 connection port on the rear of the sensor head has beenremoved to make room for the CO2 sensor,

• A special backplate is included to compensate for the CO2 sensor depth,

• The backplate has a small hole and plastic grommet for wire penetration,

• The SS-CO2 comes with both a manual and automatic calibration features,and

• The PPM reading resolves to 1 PPM.

The CO2 sensor has replaced the duplex RJ11jacks in -CO2 models

The backplate for -CO2 models has been madedeeper than the standard backplate.

Note the small grommet in the center of thebackplate for wire penetration. This small opening will minimize unwanted drafts that mayexude from a wall, especially when no insulation is present.

The mounting holes have been shifted 6 mm downwards compared to the originalbackplate, for better alignment. Alignment pilots are included to match the originalbackplate to facilitate drilling if required.

WIRING

The duplex RJ11 connection port on the rear of the sensor head has been removed tomake room for the CO2 sensor. There is a standard 6-pole wiring terminal block on thebackplate which must be used for connecting models with the -CO2 option to SMART-Net™ daisy-chain wiring.

For more information, please refer to the Wiring Details section earlier in this document.

CALIBRATION

The CO2 sensor is factory calibrated, however, some calibration drift during shipping andinstallation is typical. However, there are exceptions that will require the use of a built-inautomatic calibration algorithm. Specifically, when the lowest CO2 levels in any enclosedspace being monitored does not drop to about 400 PPM.

For applications where the CO2 sensor is exposed to fresh air CO2 concentrations of 400ppm at least once per week, the automatic calibration routine will calibrate the sensor tospecification within about 3 weeks. For applications where the sensor is not exposed to400 ppm concentrations at least once every two weeks, manual calibration may be carriedout to increase final accuracy. Both automatic and manual calibration methods aredescribed below.

AUTOMATIC

Automatic calibration occurs once in the first 24 hours after a power cycle, and then recursevery two weeks thereafter. The lowest CO2 value recorded during the cycle is comparedto 400 ppm, then the sensor is calibrated by the difference of the two values.

If unwanted air flow is entering the sensor from the wall cavity, the grommet may be sealedwith silicone sealant at the wire penetration point. This will prevent airflow within the wallcavity from disturbing the reading. Silicone sealant outgassing will NOT damage the CO2sensor.

FIGURE 69: AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS

If the lowest CO2 value recorded is 600 PPM, as shown in Figure 69, the sensor will beautomatically calibrated down by 200 ppm (600 - 400). In other words, the calibration willoffset all readings by minus 200.

In the above example, the lowest CO2 value recorded by the sensor during the two-weekperiod was 600 ppm, resulting the sensor being automatically calibrated downwards by200 ppm. If the lowest value recorded actually was 600 PPM, the sensor would be out ofcalibration by 200 ppm following execution of the automatic calibration algorithm. Forapplications such as continuously occupied rooms, or in densely populated cities, manualcalibration will be required.

MANUAL

Manual calibration should be performed on the CO2 sensor whenever the lowest CO2reading in the building does not drop to about 400 PPM at least once every two weeks.

The sensor must be exposed to fresh air at least once every two weeks for the automaticcalibration algorithm to provide an accurate calibration. It doesn't matter when the fresh airwill be sensed, just that it will be sensed at some point during the period.

USER GUIDE


If the determination to manually calibrate the SS-CO2 has been made, follow theprocedure detailed below.

TO MANUALLY CALIBRATE THE CO2 SENSOR

1 Open the appropriate SMART-Sensor worksheet in RC-Studio®.

2 Measure the CO2 with a reference sensor (this could be a handheld meter or aknown good sensor). Enter the reference CO2 in PPM in the Tag field using theformat CALXXX. Where the XXX value is the reference value. In the exampleshown in Figure 70, the reference sensor measured 450 PPM, therefore CAL450was entered in the Tag field.

FIGURE 70: SMART-SENSOR WORKSHEET MANUAL CALIBRATION USING THE TAG FIELD

3 Activate the Mode button to send the changes.

4 Deactivate the Mode button.

5 The SMART-Sensor worksheet row number will highlight in orange whencalibration has been successful. Once this visual feedback is received, clear theTag field (VERY IMPORTANT).

6 Activate the Mode button again to send the changes.

7 Verify that the CO2 value of the SS-CO2 matches the reference sensor. If not,perform steps 1 – 7 again.

The reading of 691 PPM was calibrated to read 450 PPM by entering CAL450 in the Tag field.

CONFIGURATION

There are some important facts regarding configuration that should be remembered toensure the proper functionality of the SS-CO2 such as:

• Set the Type column value in the SMART-Sensor worksheet to Analog,

• Set the Range column value in the SMART-Sensor worksheet to PPM, and

• The PPM unit is not currently available on the LCD screen.

OCCUPANCY SENSOR OPTION (-OC)

The occupancy sensor installed in SMART-Sensors with the -OC option is capable ofdetecting many motion events in a short amount of time. The SS occupancy protocol wasdesigned for setting the occupancy point (Point #5) as well as minimizing network trafficover SMART-Net™. Traffic is minimized by only communicating changes in occupancyafter a fixed period of no motion. This fixed interval is referred to as ton (timer for minimumoccupancy ON time) and has a default of 10 minutes.

After an initial detection of motion, the occupancy sensor is in a True state. This, in turn,sets the SS occupancy state and the controller occupancy state (Point #5) to a True state.Whenever the occupancy sensor state transitions to the True state, the ton timer is resetto the default. Whenever the occupancy sensor transitions to the False state, the ton timerstarts timing down. The occupancy sensor state may change many times, but the SSoccupancy state will remain True until the ton timer has counted down to zero followingthe last motion sensed.

The state of the occupancy can be set to Unoccupied or False by the controller at any timevia Control-BASIC, or by manually adjusting Point #5 of the SMART-Sensor worksheet.Setting Point#5 to False resets the ton timer back to the default. The ton timer will remainat the default as long as the occupancy state is True and will start counting down to zeroonly after a False state is detected. For more details, see Product Bulletin #4294.

DUCT OPTION (-DUCT)

The SMART-Sensor™ with -DUCT option is capable of accurately reading air temperatureflowing within a standard air duct. But, to do so, the proper model with the appropriateprobe length should be chosen. The best model to choose will be the model with the tipof the probe as close to the centerline of the duct as possible.

The simplest way to calculate the probe length needed is by taking the depth of the ductand dividing by two. For instance, a 16 inch duct (as measured from the probe penetrationpoint to the oposite wall) would need an 8 inch probe. See Table 3 on page 20 for modelnumber details.

NETWORK COMMUNICATION JACK

SMART-Sensor™ models without the Slider (-S) option, the Duct (-DUCT) option, or thePlate (-P) option, feature an RJ11 access port exposed conveniently on the bottom of theSS sensor head. On an installed SS, this RJ11 access port may be used in conjunctionwith an X-Port-2™ converter to provide access to the host network using RC-Studio® 2.0and RC-Toolkit™ 2.0.

FIGURE 74: SS-L RJ11 ACCESS PORT

The network jumpers or switches (NET) on MACH-System controllers and SSX expansionboards connect the A and B pins of the SMART-Net™ network to the controller’s EIA-485communication network, effectively extending the local controller network to the SS RJ11access port. An X-Port-2™ plugged into an enabled SS RJ11 port, and also plugged intothe EIA-232 port of a PC, allows network access for RC-Studio® and RC-Toolkit®

applications.

The MACH-ProZone™ and MACH-ProAir™ controllers do not have Net switches or jumpers.If a six-wire connection is made to the RJ11 port on the controller, the EIA-485 network isextended to SMART-Net™. Use the 4-pole terminal block provided to avoid extending theEIA-485 network, if not required.

To enable network communication with the X-Port-2™ converter, the EIA-485 networkjumpers (NET) must be installed on the host controller and any SSX expansion boards towhich the SSL is connected.

USER GUIDE


Last Panel is a software parameter used to facilitate efficient token passing on RCPnetworks only. On RCP networks, the controller with the highest physical address (RCPaddress) should be configured as the Last Panel. This Last Panel setting will remind thecontroller to return the token to the controller with the lowest physical address. If laterexpansion causes controllers to be added to the network and higher physical addresses tobe used, the Last Panel parameter will have to be modified to ---- in the device that nolonger has the highest physical address and set to Last in the new controller with thehighest physical address.

BACnet MS/TP networks do no utilize Last Panel to facilitate the token-passing schemeimplemented for communication. For this reason, on BACnet® networks, it is recommendedthat Last Panel not be used. Therefore, no controllers would be configured as Last but allwould be configured with a value of ---- for the LAST parameter.

Changes to the MSet Set-Up parameters are initially stored in the buffer of the SS-L only. Tosend the changes to the controller, UPDATE must be set to Yes. After the configurationparameters are sent to the controller, the controller must reboot to commit the changes. Donot unplug the SS-L, press any of the buttons or make any further modifications after theUPDATE value has been set to Yes until it automatically resets to No.

For best practice, provide a couple of seconds for the SS-L buffer to properly parse eachconfiguration parameter modification before committing the changes to the controller bysetting UPDATE to Yes.

FLOW TOOL

The SS-L onboard Flow Tool can be used to perform standard Test and Balance airflowcalibration of MACH-Air™ controllers used in variable air volume (VAV) applications utilizingthe base standard Reliable Controls® pan file.

The Flow Tool accesses pre-configured variables (VARs) in the standard pan file providedin all MACH-Air™ controllers. These VARs may then be modified using the SS-L without aneed for RC-Studio® 2.0 and a workstation connection. The Flow Tool VARs are outlinedin Figure 76 and Table 19.

FIGURE 76: SS-L FLOW TOOL WORKSHEET IN THE STANDARD PAN FILE IN ALL MACH-AIR™ CONTROLLERS

The SSL onboard Flow Tool requires a pre-configured SS-L profile and several VARs thatare all featured in the Reliable Controls® standard MACH-Air™ and MACH-ProAir™ pan files.For proper calibration using the Flow Tool, this pan file should be used.

In the standard MACH-Air™ and MACH-ProAir™ pan files, the SS-L onboard Flow Tooldisplay configuration is pre-configured in Sensor-5 of the SMART-Sensor™ node. This is nota functional SS-L address for a MACH-(Pro)Air™. Do not attempt to change the SS-Laddress to 5 in order to use the Flow Tool. Access to these parameters is automaticallyprovided by invoking the embedded SS-L Flow Tool in the firmware.

The following MACH-Air™/MACH-ProAir™ airflow calibration procedure as outlined inReliable Controls® Application Notice 0009 assumes a functional and configured controller.The calibration procedure requires stable duct static pressure. The central air handlingsystem should be controlling to the design duct static pressure setpoint. Significantchanges to the VAV box inlet static pressure during the calibration procedure will result in aninaccurate calibration. For best practice, set all connected VAV boxes to 50% of themaximum flow setpoint using the FLO-SP-OVR variable.

TO USE THE SS-L FLOW TOOL

1 Access the Flow Tool using the appropriate key code combination outlined inTable 17.

2 Use the button to step to the FL-OVR point on the SS-L. Then use the and buttons to override the current airflow setpoint to the maximumoccupied airflow setpoint for the connected VAV box.

FIGURE 77: SS-L FL-OVR POINT

3 Use the button to step to the FLOW point on the SS-L and wait until thedisplayed calculated flow stabilizes (depending upon system conditions andflow sensor calibration, the displayed flow may not reach the FL-OVR setpoint).

FIGURE 78: SS-L FLOW POINT

4 Determine the actual VAV box total airflow by measuring the airflow througheach connected distribution outlet using an accurate balancing hood.

For this example, the initial calculated flow is 600 CFM but the actual measuredtotal flow is 650 CFM.

5 Use the button to step to the FL-CAL point on the SS-L. Then use the and buttons to increment the value to the actual total measured airflowrecorded in step 4.

FIGURE 79: SS-L FL-CAL POINT

89

USER GUIDE


6 Wait until the FL-CAL point value resets to 0. This may take up to one minute.During this time the MACH-Air™ is calibrating the airflow sensor.

FIGURE 80: SS-L FL-CAL POINT

7 When the FL-CAL point value reads 0, the K-factor constant multiplier for the VAVbox has been set and the airflow transducer has been calibrated.

8 Use the button to step to the FLOW point on the SS-L and wait until thedisplayed calculated flow stabilizes near the FL-OVR setting.

FIGURE 81: SS-L FLOW POINT

9 For best practice, verify the total actual flow by measuring the airflow througheach connected distribution outlet using an accurate balancing hood again. Ifthe difference between the actual total measured airflow and calculated totalairflow displayed by the SS-L is outside of the specified or acceptable limits (5%- 10% typical), repeat steps 5–8.

10 If it is necessary to balance or test the VAV box at the configured minimumairflow setpoint, repeat steps 2–4 using the minimum airflow setpoint for the FL-OVR value.

The actual total measured airflow with the box operating at the minimum flowsetpoint may be measured. However, do not re-calibrate the K-factor basedupon the minimum airflow setting. The flow transducer is more accurate athigher air velocity.

11 Set the FL-OVR point value back to 0 to allow the MACH-Air™ to revert to normal,programmed operation.

12 The calibration procedure is now complete.

A typical value for the K-factor of a MACH-Air™/MACH-ProAir™ is from 0.5 to 1.5. If thecalculated value is outside of this range, there is likely a problem. Most airflow pickupsamplify the differential pressure to allow for a better resolution of the signal by thedifferential pressure transducer. For this reason, the constant multiplier K is usually < 1.0 inorder to remove the amplification.

• If the secondary point is enabled, a two-character descriptiveabbreviation may be programmed to be displayed together with thevalue,

• The LCD reverts to the idle screen after 20 seconds of button inactivity.When Auto Blanking is enabled, the LCD automatically turns off after 20seconds of button inactivity in the idle screen (40 seconds of inactivitybefore screen blanking occurs). The display will reappear in Idle modewhen any button is pressed. Enable this function if desired,

• Disable the onboard configuration tools for addressing and airflowcalibration, and

• Enter a descriptive name for the SSL that will appear to uniquely identifythe SS-L in the SMART-Sensors node of the System Tree.

14 Verify that SS-L setup changes have taken effect and that the SS-L and mappedpoints are operating properly.

15 Close the SMART-Sensor worksheet.

16 As a suggested best practice, backup the pan file to save changes to the RC-Studio® 2.0 project database.

If a point is configured with the Type set to state, an icon is selected, and the User Edit fieldis set to Display Only, the icon will be displayed according to the value of the pointdisplayed in Idle mode but the point will not appear separately by scrolling through thepoints using the button.

All values that must be modifiable by the SS-L, including both onboard options and/oroperator modification will have to be configured for Can Edit.
