Warning:
Óç
Use National Electric (NEC) or other
country-specific standard wiring and
safety practices when wiring and
connecting this controller to a power
source and to electrical sensors or
peripheral devices. Failure to do so
may result in damage to equipment
and property, and/or injury or loss
of life.
Note:
Maximum wire size termination and
torque rating:
• 0.0507 to 3.30 mm
2
(30 to 12
AWG) single-wire termination or
two 1.31 mm
2
(16 AWG)
• 0.8 Nm (7.0 lb.-in.) torque
Note:
Adjacent terminals may be labeled
differently, depending on the model
number.
Note:
To prevent damage to the control-
ler, do not connect wires to unused
terminals.
Note:
Maintain electrical isolation be-
tween Analog Input 1, Digital I/O,
Switched dc/open collector outputs
and Process outputs to prevent
ground loops.
Note:
The control output common
terminal and the digital common
terminal are referenced to different
voltages and must remain isolated.

• Wire T-/R- to the A terminal of
the EIA-485 port.
• Wire T+/R+ to the B terminal of
the EIA-485 port.
• Wire common to the common
terminal of the EIA-485 port.
• Do not route network wires
with power wires. Connect net-

ion when connecting multiple
devices in a network.
• Do not connect more than 16
EZ-ZONE PM controllers on a
network.
• Maximum network length:
1,200 meters (4,000 feet)

Note:
Do not leave a USB to EIA-485 converter connected to Standard Bus with-
out power (i.e., disconnecting the USB end from the computer while leaving
the converter connected on Standard Bus). Disturbance on the Standard
Bus may occur.
