6 Connecting Sensors
to Einstein/REFLECS
The commissioning process described in
Section 5 assigns each sensor a virtual "board
and point" address in an RF Gateway’s memory.
Once a sensor is commissioned, the controller on
the RF Gateway’s RS485 I/O Network treats the
RF Gateway in all respects as a series of four
16AI Analog Input Boards numbered in succes-
sion.
Programming Einstein and REFLECS appli-
cations to use RF Sensor values is exactly the
same process as programming Einstein and
REFLECS applications to use conventional tem-
perature sensors connected to 16AI input points;
just enter the virtual board and point address of
the RF Sensor in the input definition fields.
Refer to your site controller’s user manual
for information about setting up board and point
addresses for inputs in Einstein and REFLECS
applications.
