|Overview
The HyperStat is part of 75F's vertically-integrated suite of intelligent building solutions, delivering multi-mode sensing, remote monitoring and individual zone control for comfort and productivity of building occupants, for more information on refer to HyperStat Installation & Hyperstat UI.
The HyperStat hardware is capable to work as a dependent device configured with a 75F's CCU configured for various system level profiles, or with any external Modbus or BACnet devices as a Modbus or BACnet slave. Moreover, it can also work as an independent or standalone device which can work as per profiles which can be configured in the Hyperstat itself.
The Hyperstat as Modbus slave feature provides the capability to the customer, to configure a Hyperstat with any Modbus device and read the data from Modbus device in a certain format.
|Wiring
The wiring that is used to connect a modbus device to a Hyperstat is called RS485 system. The RS485 connector uses a three wire protocol as shown below.
It comprises of a earthing wire and a twisted pair of wires. Every modbus device has a 'A' and 'B' indication in them, for aiding the wiring.
The earthing or the ground wire is usually earthed only in one point. Normally, this connection is made at one end of the main cable, in this case it is connected to the ground point of the Hyperstat.
For the Twisted pair of wire there is no specific color criteria that is followed, it can be of any color. The wire that is connected to the 'A' indication point in the Modbus device is connected to the 'A' indication point in the Hyperstat, and the wire that is connected to the 'B' indication point in the Modbus device is connected to the 'B' indication point in the Hyperstat.
For other factors to be considered while wiring a RS485 cable kindly refer Modbus Wring and General Guidelines
