Simplex 4010 NION Installation/Operation Manual Version 2 Document 51998 Rev. A1 03/26/03
NION-Simplex 4010 Connectors
Power Connector (TB5) - +24VDC input power connector.
TB6 - Relay output; both Normally Open/Normally Closed are available (Contacts rated at 2A 30VDC, this is a
resistive load).
TB1 - Standard terminal block style port for EIA-232 connection to serial channel A.
Echelon Network Transceiver Connector(J1) - Pin connection header for SMX Transceiver.
Reset Pin (SW1) - Resets the NION and restarts the software.
Bind Pin (SW2) - Sends a message requesting to be added to the Echelon network.
Battery Terminal (BT1) - 3V Lithium battery (RAYOVAC BR1335) terminal.
Network Communication PLCC (U24) - The flash module that specifies the network transceiver.
Application PLCC (U6) - The flash module that contains the application software.
NION Power Requirements
The Simplex 4010 NION requires +24VDC @
250 mA nominal and supervised battery
backup in accordance with local code require-
ments. It can be powered by any power limited
source that is UL listed for use with fire protec-
tive signaling units. The NION is equipped
with a +3VDC lithium battery for data backup
during low power conditions.
1.3: SMX Network Connection
The UniNet™ facilities monitoring system is distributed via a LonWorks™ network. This high-speed network allows
communication between field nodes and a Local Area Server or BCI. NION modules provide the communication
links between monitored equipment and the network.
Connections
One twisted pair of wires or dedicated fiber-optic cable is used for data transmission in the UniNet™ network.
The wire must be:
• Twisted pair cable.
• UL listed for use in a power-limited fire-detection system (if used in conjunction with a fire monitoring network).
• Riser, plenum, or non-plenum cable, according to local fire alarm wiring codes.
Fiber optic segments require fiber that is:
• Multimode.
• 62.5/125 µm dia.
NOTES: Use only wire for power limited systems. Power limited wire
runs use type FPLR, FPLP, FPL or equivalent cabling per NEC 760.
NOTE: All non-fiber network connections are transformer isolated
making all network communication immune to ground fault condi-
tions. Therefore, no ground fault supervision of the Echelon network
is required or provided.
NOTES: It is recommended that the installer conform to local code requirements when
installing all wiring . All power connections must be non-resettable. Refer to the
current Notifier catalog for specific part numbers and ordering information for each
NION.
Always remove power from the NION before making any changes to switch settings
and removing or installing option modules, SMX network modules and software
upgrade chips or damage may result.
Always observe ESD protection procedures.
