POWER WIRING

The MACH-Pro2™ requires power from a Class 2, 24 VAC transformer or 24 VDC 42 Watt
power supply. A fully loaded controller consumes 75 VA. To determine that actual power
consumption of a controller in a specific application, use Reliable Controls online Power
Calculator, available at the following URL:

http://www.reliablecontrols.com/support/dealers/engineer/calculator/index.html

Ensure that polarity is the same if multiple controllers share the same power source.
Network protection bulbs will light-up if polarity is crossed.

Do not connect any peripheral devices to the same power source as the MACH-
Pro2™controller.

Use only a Class 2, 24 VAC transformer or 24 VDC 42 Watt power supply. Refer to the
Technical Specifications section at the back of this document.

The 24 VAC return/neutral wire must be grounded to the building’s Earth ground.

Apply minimum 4.0–5.5 in-lb torque for tightening field wires into terminal blocks. Use 30–
12 AWG wires.

External wiring connected to the controller is to be provided a relief from strain and twisting.

FIGURE 8: MACH-PRO2™ CONNECTION WITHOUT AN AVAILABLE SERIAL PORT

The EIA-232 specification defines the maximum cable length to be 15 m (50 ft).

SMART-NET PORT
The MACH-Pro2™ controller supports up to 16 SMART-Sensors (refer to Figure 9). The
SMART-Sensors are ideal for measuring space/zone comfort levels and providing
occupant adjustment of setpoints. The SMART-Sensor™ LCD model allows display and
adjustment of up to ten system points. Model options include onboard humidity sensor,
occupancy sensor, and CO2 sensor.

SMART-Sensors are daisy-chained back to the MACH-Pro2™ controller's SMART-Net™ port

using a six-wire, SMART-Net™ bus. With the Enable X-Port Access field enabled in the
MACH-Pro2™ MSet application, two of the SMART-Net™ wires are connected to MS/TP-Net.
This allows a workstation running RC-Studio® or RC-Toolkit™ to plug into the SMART-Net™
port on the controller, or on the bottom of any SMART-Sensor™, and gain full access to MS/
TP-Net (refer to Figure 10).

The SMART-Net™ port also supports the SETUP-Tool for quick and convenient
configuration in the field.

 I/O-NET

The second EIA-485 port on the MACH-Pro2™ is dedicated for hosting I/O-Net.

A MACH-Pro2™ can support up to three expansion modules on I/O-Net of any type.

The MACH-Pro2™ database can support up to 84 inputs (using 3 MPP-I modules) and 56
outputs (using 3 MPP-O modules). A fully loaded MACH-Pro2™ with two MACH-ProPoint™
Input expansion modules and one MACH-ProPoint™ Output expansion module includes
physical terminations for 60 inputs and 24 outputs (including twelve inputs and eight
outputs onboard the MACH-Pro2™ controller).

The I/O-Net port utilizes the EIA-485 network standard described in the EIA-485 Network
Considerations section of this document.

Because the MACH-Pro2™ features dedicated full termination on the I/O-Net port, EOL
switches are not provided on MACH-ProPoint™ expansion modules or on the host MACH-
Pro2™ controller I/O-Net port. Each MACH-ProPoint™ expansion module has a weak 1/8
load termination, and the MACH-Pro2™ controller has full End-Of-Line (EOL) termination
built-in. If all three MACH-ProPoint™ expansion modules are connected, the network is fully
terminated.

Expansion modules can be located remotely from the host MACH-Pro2™ controller. To
maintain a reasonable level of fault tolerance, expansion modules should be located in the
same mechanical room, or in the general vicinity of the host controller. I/O-Net is NOT
designed to be a building-wide network.

The MACH-Pro2™ host controller communicates to its slave MACH-ProPoint™ expansion

modules ten times per second, even if the host controller is scanning at a faster rate. For
this reason, MACH-ProPoint™ outputs cannot be cycled on or off faster than ten times per
second. MACH-ProPoint™ inputs cannot be read faster than ten times per second. Pulse
accumulation is carried out within the MACH-ProPoint™ expansion modules and is,
therefore not limited by the communication rate to the host controller.

RAM seconds. The Clear Non-Volatile RAM method resets the
capacitor-backed RAM memory, clearing Trend Log data,
Runtime Log data, BACnet Address Binding Table, BACset Table,
NET Ins and Net Outs, and Variable present values. Variable
values go to the last written value saved in the Flash backup of the
database. (All of these items are automatically regenerated after
the controller returns to normal operation.)

Database Press and hold during a power up, and release within five seconds
after power up. The status LED located below the power switch
flashes once per second. The Clear Database method resets the
capacitor-backed RAM (as described above), and also clears the
database. The controller pan file will need to be restored following
this action.

MSet Press and hold during a power up, and release after the reset
sequence is complete. The status LED located below the power
switch will flash five times. The MACH-Pro2™controller will remain
off for 2–3 seconds then all of the status LEDs will flash repeatedly
for 2–3 seconds, at which point normal operation will resume. The
Reset button must be held down until this sequence is complete.
The Clear MSet method produces the results described above,
and also clears the MSet configuration. The MACH-Pro2™
controller reverts to the factory default configuration.

ONBOARD INPUT/OUTPUT
The MACH-Pro2™ controller incorporates a complete onboard MACH-ProPoint™ Input/
Output Universal expansion module. This onboard expansion module includes all of the
features described in the MACH-ProPoint™ Input/Output Universal Expansion Module
section of this User Guide.

The onboard expansion module always uses address number 1 on I/O-Net. If additional
expansion modules are connected externally to I/O-Net, the first external address will
always be number two.

MANUAL OVERRIDE OF OUTPUTS

The MACH-Pro2™ is available in two models. The MP2 does not include Hand/Off/Auto
(HOA) switches. Each of the eight outputs on an MP2-H model is equipped with an HOA
switch and override potentiometer hard-wired into the output circuit. When an HOA switch
is in the HAND position, the voltage at the output terminals is determined by the associated
potentiometer. It is recommended to use a flat-blade screwdriver when adjusting the
potentiometer, being careful to not make contact with any sensitive electronics. Rotating
the potentiometer clockwise results in higher voltage, while counter-clockwise results in a
lower voltage. The associated output’s LED will dim or brighten in relation to the output
voltage. The factory default position for the output potentiometers (fully clockwise) results
in full voltage being connected to the output.

When an HOA switch is in the OFF position, the output voltage is zero. When an HOA
switch is in the AUTO position, the output voltage is determined by software programming
in the host controller, or by a software override command from an RC-Studio® 2.0
workstation.

Proper installation and configuration of the EIA-485 network is key to ensuring proper
operation of the MACH-Pro2™ controller. For a detailed description of EIA-485 installation
and configuration requirements for MS/TP networks, please refer to the Networking
eLearning module, available at www.reliablecontrols.com.

EIA-485 NETWORK CONSIDERATIONS

The MS/TP-Net and I/O-Net ports both utilize EIA-485 communications for all of their
options. The requirements for a functional EIA-485 network are described below.

The MACH-Pro2™ EIA-485 removable network terminal blocks are located on the left side
of the device.

 TO CONNECT THE MACH-PRO2™ TO A NETWORK

1 Using EIA-485 certified communication cable, with an ideal Characteristic

Impedance of 108 Ohms, 18 or 22 AWG two conductor, twisted and shielded, low
capacitance (below 25 pF/ft), connect one conductor to the A- terminal and the
other to the B+ terminal of the controller.

2 Daisy-chain the network cable as shown below (avoid star and stub connections).

END-OF-LINE TERMINATION

MACH-PRO2
On all EIA-485 networks, except I/O-Net, it is necessary to add EOL terminators to prevent
reflected noise returning into the network. The EOL terminators must be installed on the
controllers at the extremities of the network.

To terminate the MACH-Pro2™controller, set the two-position EOL switches as shown in

Figure 27.

EOL DIP switches are not provided for the I/O-Net ports on the MACH-Pro2™ controller or
MACH-ProPoint™ expansion modules. The MACH-Pro2™ controller has onboard EOL
termination, and each MACH-ProPoint™ expansion module self-terminates as it is added.

If the network is not terminated properly, the MACH-Pro2™ controller may fail to network.
Each EIA-485 network should have only two controllers with the EOL switches set to the IN
position.

Glowing network bulbs indicate a problem which could be: the Class 2 power is crossed
(24 VAC and GND) between two controllers, or the ground potential between two controllers
is not the same.

MACH-PROPOINT INPUT/OUTPUT EXPANSION MODULE

When upgrading an existing installation of a MACH-ProPoint™ to a Revision E version, and
when using 0–10VDC transducers, any associated table must be modified. The value in the
left column of the associated table must be doubled. This is to compensate for previously
halving the numbers in the left hand column.

REV E AND TROUBLESHOOTING IN THE FIELD

In order to use the full resolution of the analog to digital converter for temperature ranges,
the open circuit voltage supplied by the input on the Thermistor/dry contact jumper setting
is now 10 VDC through a 20K resistor. Previously it was 5 VDC through a 10K resister. This
means that testing voltage in the field will yield different results than before. For example,
an open circuit voltage measurement when the thermistor/dry contact is set will yield a
reading of 10 VDC instead of 5 VDC.

Figure 42 shows the measured voltage at the thermistor at 25 degrees Celsius.

FIGURE 42: THERMISTOR VOLTAGE DIVIDER MEASUREMENTS

All products that support 0–10 VDC have a 12-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)
providing a 2.44 mV resolution. This is more than adequate to meet accuracy specifications
on all sensor ranges. It is an eleven-bit resolution when using 0–5 VDC transducers, but the
2.44 mV resolution is maintained.

RANGES

The actual range of an input (e.g., -40 to 120 oC, 0–20 psi, 0–100 Amps), is set using RC-
Studio® 2.0.

INPUT STATUS LEDS

A status LED is provided for each input, which brightens in proportion to the voltage
measured at the input. If the input is at the bottom of its range, the LED is off. If the input
is at the top of its range, the LED is fully bright.

OUTPUTS

FIGURE 43: REMOVABLE OUTPUT TERMINAL BLOCK

An MPP-IO can control up to eight physical output devices. The range of each output, and
whether the output is analog or digital (two-position), is set using RC-Studio® 2.0.

Each of the first four outputs is wired with an unpopulated output module socket. Three
types of output modules are available and must be ordered separately in packages of 10:
the Universal output module, TRIAC module, and Relay output module. These same
modules are also used by the MACH-Stat™ series of controllers.

The last four outputs are wired as Universal outputs which provide 0–12 VDC at a
maximum of 75 mA.

 MACH-PRO2™

Outputs

UNIVERSAL OUTPUT MODULES

MACH-PROPOINT INPUT/OUTPUT EXPANSION MODULE

Universal output modules provide 0–12 VDC at a maximum of 75
mA. The outputs are configured with RC-Studio® 2.0 to be two-
position, or modulating.

TRIAC OUTPUT MODULES

TRIAC output modules provide a single pole normally open TRIAC

contact which can switch AC loads up to 24 VAC, with a current
load ranging from 0.02 to 0.5 Amps. The TRIAC output module
should be used for switching 24 VAC loads except those requiring
normally closed operation, switched current below 0.02 Amps,
and DC loads. For those exceptions, the relay output module
should be used.

RELAY OUTPUT MODULES

Relay output modules are wired as an SPDT dry contact. The dry
contact is capable of switching loads of up to 0.5 Amps at 24 VAC.
The maximum allowable load voltage is 24 VAC/VDC. A jumper on
the module is used to configure the contact as normally open
(N.O.), or normally closed (N.C.).

MANUAL OVERRIDE

The MACH-ProPoint™ Input/Output expansion module is available in two models. The

MPP-IO model does not include Hand/Off/Auto (HOA) switches. Each of the eight outputs
on an MPP-IO-H model is equipped with an HOA switch and override potentiometer hard-
wired into the output circuit. When an HOA switch is in the HAND position, the voltage at
the output terminals is determined by the associated potentiometer. It is recommended to
use a flat-blade screwdriver when adjusting the potentiometer, being careful to not make
contact with any sensitive electronics. Rotating the potentiometer clockwise results in
higher voltage, while counter-clockwise results in a lower voltage. The associated output’s
LED will dim or brighten in relation to the output voltage. The factory default position for
the output potentiometers (fully clockwise) results in full voltage being connected to the
output.

USER GUIDE

 2014 Reliable Controls® Corporation. All rights reserved. 55

 For outputs that include a Relay or TRIAC module, the potentiometer should be adjusted to
the full clockwise position so that 12 Volts DC is delivered to the relay module if the HOA
switch is moved to the Hand position.

When an HOA switch is in the OFF position, the output voltage is zero. When an HOA
switch is in the AUTO position, the output voltage is determined by software programming
in the host controller, or by a software override command from an RC-Studio® 2.0
workstation.
LEDS

Each output has a red status LED which brightens in proportion to the voltage at the output
terminals. At zero volts, the LED is off, at 12 VDC the LED is fully bright.

PERIPHERAL DC POWER SUPPLY

The MPP-IO is equipped with an adjustable DC power supply for use in powering
peripheral transducers. The power supply can produce up to 0.2 Amps, adjustable
between 15 and 24 VDC.

Figure 38 shows the location of the voltage adjustment potentiometer, fuse, and output
terminals for the peripheral power supply.

OUTPUTS

FIGURE 67: REMOVABLE OUTPUT TERMINAL BLOCKS

An MPP-O can control up to 16 physical output devices. The range of each output, and
whether the output is analog or digital (two-position), is set using RC-Studio® 2.0.

All outputs are wired as Universal outputs which provide 0–12 VDC at a maximum of 75
mA. The outputs are configured with RC-Studio® 2.0 to be two-position or modulating.

MANUAL OVERRIDE

The MACH-ProPoint™ Output expansion module is available in two models. The MPP-O
model does not include Hand/Off/Auto (HOA) switches. Each of the 16 outputs on an MPP-
O-H model is equipped with an HOA switch and override potentiometer hard-wired into the
output circuit. When an HOA switch is in the HAND position, the voltage at the output
terminals is determined by the associated potentiometer. It is recommended to use a flat-
blade screwdriver when adjusting the potentiometer, being careful to not make contact
with any sensitive electronics. Rotating the potentiometer clockwise results in higher
voltage, while counter-clockwise results in a lower voltage. The associated output’s LED
will dim or brighten in relation to the output voltage. The factory default position for the
output potentiometers (fully clockwise) results in full voltage being connected to the
output.

 MACH-PRO2™

Outputs

When an HOA switch is in the OFF position, the output voltage is zero. When an HOA

MACH-PROPOINT OUTPUT EXPANSION MODULE

switch is in the AUTO position, the output voltage is determined by software programming
in the host controller, or by a software override command from an RC-Studio® 2.0
workstation.

LEDS

Each output has a red status LED which brightens in proportion to the voltage at the output
terminals. At zero volts, the LED is off, at 12 VDC the LED is fully bright.
