Connect Module Overview & Installation

| Overview

The Connect Module is a versatile and feature-packed device that connects to various devices seamlessly using Modbus/BACnet in a building automation system. It is designed to interface with various input and output devices, making it ideal for use in a range of applications. With its multiple analog inputs and outputs and its support for BACnet and OWI interfaces, the Connect Module is essential for building automation professionals looking to streamline their workflow and increase efficiency.

| Setting Connect Module to Different Modes

The connect module can operate in 3 modes based on the profile and the usage it is being used.

• By default, out of the box, the connect module is meant to act in the split mode, supporting HyperStat Split-based profiles. The same can be visualized in the communication options screen of the connect module UI as below.

• The connect module can also work as an external controller that can accept custom sequences such as PI Loop controls, lighting controls, and pump lead/lag controls based on specific site use cases, providing optimized control and management for each unique site. The mode for the same can be set as shown below.

• Lastly, the connect module can work just like SmartNode and HyperStat, controlling a piece of terminal equipment where the connect module is paired additional module under Advanced AHU v2 profiles in the CCU. Setting the connect module for the same can be done from the communication screen in the UI, as shown below.
