Field wiring must incorporate external protection sized for the total transformer load, including active S-Link peripheral connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How does the S-Link interface expand hardware IO capabilities?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The proprietary Sensor Link (S-Link) bus allows point-to-point communication with remote sensors and room display units, offloading local universal input channels for primary mechanical equipment monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Are the 8 digital outputs dry relay contacts or solid-state switches?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The 8 digital outputs are solid-state Triac switches designed for AC control circuits. They must be powered from an external AC source consistent with standard HVAC actuator pilot control circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount the unit vertically inside a grounded control enclosure using standard mounting hardware through the designated mounting holes on the base plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintain clearance surrounding the housing to allow natural convective heat dissipation across the ambient operating range of -40 to +60 deg C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire the 24 VAC power supply to the dedicated power terminals, ensuring correct transformer sizing for a minimum load of 50 VA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerminate BACnet MS\/TP communication wiring using shielded twisted-pair cabling.
