Intelligent Building Series C-Touch Installation Instructions

10.0 Power Surges and Short Circuit Conditions

The mains voltage must be limited to the range specied for any C-Bus Unit which is

mains powered. Each unit incorporates transient protection circuitry, however external

power surge protection devices should be used to enhance system immunity to power

surges. It is strongly recommended that overvoltage equipment such as the Clipsal 970

is installed at the switchboard.

11.0 Megger Testing

Megger testing of an electrical installation that has C-Bus Units connected will not cause

any damage to C-Bus Units. Since C-Bus Units contain electronic components, the installer

should interpret megger readings with due regard to the nature of the circuit connection.

Megger testing must never be performed on the C-Bus data cabling or terminals as it

may degrade the performance of the Network.

12.0 Important Notes

• An Electricians' Licence is not required to install C-Touch units.

• Do not connect mains to C-Touch units.

13.0 Programming Requirements

The C-Touch Control Unit must be programmed to set a unique identication (Unit

Address) and the mode of operation on the C-Bus Network. The C-Bus Installation

Software can be used to congure the:

• Unit Address

• Clock

• Burden

14.0 C-Touch Conguration Software

C-Touch Conguration Software is provided on CD-ROM with the C-Touch Unit. To install

the software, simply insert the CD into the CD Drive of your personal computer or laptop

and follow the on-screen prompts.

The CD-ROM also contains Online Documentation. Please refer to the C-Touch

Programming Reference for further information relating to the programming of the C-Touch.

Once the conguration of a customer installation is complete, the project should be written

to a disk and provided to the customer or archived at your premises for future reference.

15.0 Important Warning

The use of any non C-Bus Software in conjunction with the hardware installation without

the written consent of Clipsal Integrated Systems may void any warranties applicable to

the hardware.
