Default value = 4
Range is:
0 to 254

Conditional parameter to BACnet MS-TP models (VT7200X1000B)
Conditional parameter to Wireless models (VT7200X1000W)
This parameter will only appear when a BACnet or wireless network adapter is present. If
the thermostat is installed as a stand-alone unit or with an Echelon adapter, this parameter
will not be used or displayed

• For BACnet MS-TP models valid range to use is from 1 to 127

• For wireless models valid range is 0 to 254 with a maximum of 40 thermostat per VGG

PAN ID
Personal Area Network Identification
Default value = 0
Range is:
0 to 500

Conditional parameter to Wireless models (VT7200X1000W)
This parameter will only appear when a wireless network adapter is present. If the thermostat
is installed as a stand-alone unit or with a BACnet or Echelon adapter, this parameter will not
be used or displayed

This parameter (Personal Area Network Identification) is used to link specific thermostats to a
single specific Viconics wireless gateway ( VWG ) For every thermostat reporting to a
gateway ( maximum of 40 thermostats per gateway ), be sure you set the SAME PAN ID
value both at the gateway and the thermostat(s).

Channel
Channel selection
Default value = 10
Range is:
10 to 26

Conditional parameter to Wireless models (VT7200X1000W)
This parameter will only appear when a wireless network adapter is present. If the thermostat
is installed as a stand-alone unit or with a BACnet or Echelon adapter, this parameter will not
be used or displayed

This parameter (Channel) is used to link specific thermostats to specific Viconics wireless
gateway(s) ( VWG ) For every thermostat reporting to a gateway ( maximum of 40
thermostats per gateway ), be sure you set the SAME channel value both at the gateway and
the thermostat(s).

Viconics recommends using only the 2 last channels ( 25-2575MHz and 26-2580MHz )

The default value of 10 is NOT a valid channel. The valid range of available channel is from
11 to 26

Get From
Thermostat Get From another
device configuration utility
Default value = 0
Range is:
0 to 254

Conditional parameter to Wireless models (VT7200X1000W)
This parameter will only appear when a wireless network adapter is present. If the thermostat
is installed as a stand-alone unit or with a BACnet or Echelon adapter, this parameter will not
be used or displayed

This function is used when you want to copy all the configuration parameters automatically
from another thermostat of the SAME model communicating on the SAME network.

Configuration parameters copied from another device during this process are marked below
with an (*).

The thermostat will begin querying the network 30 seconds after this parameter is given an
address to query. If the device queried is not online yet, the thermostat will continue querying
the specified device for its properties every 30 seconds until it comes on line and gets the
requested information. If the specified address is unused and does not exist, the thermostat
repeat its query every 30 seconds indefinitely.

When the thermostat receives the configuration information, the query for configuration is
disabled. The only way to re-enable the request for the configuration properties is by
changing the actual address of the queried device to another value.

The default value of 0 is NOT a valid address and disables this function.

If the specified thermostat is of a different model, the query will be disabled automatically.
The only way to re-enable the request for the configuration properties is by changing the
actual address of the queried device to another value and to use a valid address used by a
thermostat of the SAME model number.
