BAC-A1616BC BACnet Building Controller
Select the 10K ohm pull-up resistor jumper posi-
tion for the corresponding input. (See the Installa-
tion section of the BAC-A1616ABC Building Control-
ler Installation and Operation Guide for the correct
jumper position.)
Because the Building Controller has a 0–12 VDC
total input range, dierent tables are required than
in other (0–5 VDC) KMC controllers. If needed,
download the sensor tables (CSV) le from the
KMC Controls Partners web site and import the
needed tables as described in the Tables section of
the BAC-A1616ABC Building Controller Installa-
tion and Operation Guide. (You must log into the
Partners site to see the zipped tables le on the
Building Controller product page downloads.)
1. In the desired Analog Input setup screen of the
web page interface, select KMC Type III Degree
Fahrenheit or KMC Type III Degree Celsius.
2. Select the Lookup Table for the Type III
Thermistor. (Having it in Table 3 is good
practice.)
3. For the Fahrenheit scale, the multiplier is 1.8 and
the oset is 32. For Celsius, the multiplier is 1 and
the oset is 0.
4. Click Save.
Controller Configuration
Overview
Ensure that the corresponding 10,000 ohm pull-up
resistors on the controller are selected (switched
On). Consult the controller’s setup instructions for
information on switching on the pull-up resistors.
See the relevant software section for controller
conguration instructions.
