Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver on the PXC Series Platform

Functionality

Notes on System Architecture

The Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver with Firmware 3.

(Figure 2) supports the

following:

● BACnet MS/TP or BACnet/IP ALN on Firmware 3.

If the driver is on a BACnet MS/TP network, you can use a standard field panel

with Firmware Revision 3.1 or later as a router to connect to an Insight

workstation. Do not use an Integration Driver as the router.

● A maximum of 96 devices.

● Three physical FLNs (FLN 1 through FLN 3), which can be used for connecting

and addressing Johnson Controls N2 Master devices on RS-485 FLNs on a PXC

Modular.

● TX-I/O Modules.

● Maximum of 8,000 APOGEE points per driver.

● Three virtual FLNs (FLN 4 through FLN 6) for mapping devices on P1 on a PXC-

36 or Modular.

NOTE:

P1 devices are connected through physical FLNs 1 through 3, but are addressed

through virtual FLNs 4 through 6.

Functionality

The Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver provides communication between the

APOGEE® Automation System and the Johnson Controls N2 Master system.

The Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver can be loaded into PXC Modular or PXC-36

hardware. The driver is a microprocessor-based, multi-tasking platform designed for

multi-system communication and control.

● When using a P2 ALN, the Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver communicates with

Insight software, other APOGEE field panels and controllers, and the JCI N2

Master devices plus the APOGEE Automation System.

● When using a BACnet ALN, the Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver

communicates with Insight workstation software, other APOGEE field panels and

controllers, and the JCI N2 Master devices plus the APOGEE Automation System.

Through the Insight workstation, the Johnson Controls points can be monitored and

commanded. The Johnson Controls points integrated into the APOGEE Automation

System can be accessed by system applications, such as Powers Process Control

Language (PPCL), scheduling, trending, and alarming.

The Johnson Controls N2 Master Driver will not affect, in any way, the operating

sequence or safeties as factory-programmed into the JCI N2 Master devices plus the

APOGEE Automation System.

NOTE:

BACnet Field Panel Web Server licenses LSM-FPWEB, LSM-FPWEBPL and LSM-

FPWEBPLHST are now retired. Launch Pad must be used instead and is available

for free download from Standard Apps/Partner Extranet.
