Setting Fahrenheit or Celsius Set the Fahrenheit or Celsius feature by manually selecting each jumper (JP1- JP4) or by manually selecting the RAW A/D OUTPUT jumper on the card. FIG. 3 shows the location of the jumpers and POTs. The RAW A/D OUTPUT jumper overrides jumpers JP1 - JP4. Channels 1 - 4 Jumpers JP5 - JP8 Jumpers JP1 - JP4 and JP13 (RAW) FIG. 3 Location of jumpers and POTs Jumpers JP9 - JP12 Setting the Jumpers Use the two-position jumpers (FIG. 4) to select Fahrenheit or Celsius operation. The setting takes effect when you power on the system or reinsert the card into the CardFrame. The default setting is Fahrenheit (°F). °F °C JP1 FIG. 4 Jumpers 1. Set each jumper (JP1 - JP4) on the card for either Fahrenheit or Celsius. 2. Set all calibration POTs to zero. Each POT is a 25 turn POT. Full counter-clockwise is a -4° variance and full clockwise is a +4° variance. To access the jumper and POTs, remove the AXC-TEMP card from the CardFrame. After making all adjustments, be sure to reseat the card properly. You can also adjust the card using an optional Axcess Extender Card (AXC-EXTN), for easier access. 3. Insert the card into the desired Axcess CardFrame slot. It is not necessary to disconnect power to the CardFrame when installing the card. AXC-TEMP Temperature Control Card and RTS1 Room Temperature Sensor 3 Pre-Installation 4. Hold the card by the tab end and slide the card into the frame. Make sure the card is correctly positioned in the guide slot. 5. Gently push the card in until it is firmly seated in the card connector slot. It is not necessary to disconnect the power to the CardFrame when installing the card. Calibrating POTs Use the four calibration potentiometers (POTs), marked CH 1 - CH 4, to adjust the respective RTS1 units 1 - 4. The default setting for each POT pointer is 0°. The table below describes the POT calibration for CH 1 - CH 4.

Wire RTS1 units 1 - 4. Refer to Wiring the RTS1 for additional information. 2. Check the temperature. ! If the panel has a display, check the temperature readings on the system Wiring control panel. The temperature readings will change when the room temperature changes by a half degree. If the panel does not have a display, check the variables in Axcess. ! Wiring the RTS1 Use Belden 8723 or equivalent cable. When an application or code requires plenum-rated cable, use Belden 88723 or equivalent cable. Call AMX Technical Support for any installations that require a wire run of more than 100 feet.

Place a reference thermometer near RTS1 unit 1. 2. Allow the reference thermometer to stabilize for approximately 1-minute. 3. Adjust calibration POT R1 (CHAN 1) clockwise or counter-clockwise to match the reference thermometer temperature. When connecting wiring, ensure the Drain and Green wires are used. The capacitance/filtering effects of these wires are required for accurate measurements. 4. Touch the sensor at bottom of RTS1 unit 1 for 2-seconds to force a temperature change. 5. Wait approximately 5 seconds for the temperature to stabilize. Then, recheck the display panel temperature display. Allow the reference thermometer to stabilize approximately one minute, then check. 6. If necessary, repeat steps 1 - 5 for RTS1 units 2 - 4, and move the reference thermometer near each sensor you are calibrating. 6 AXC-TEMP Temperature Control Card and RTS1 Room Temperature Sensor Pre-Installation Testing the RTS1 Touch the sensor at the bottom each RTS1 unit for a few seconds. The temperature on the display panel should change. If the temperature does not change: 1. Check the wiring to each RTS1 unit that did not display a temperature change. 2. Verify the AXC-TEMP card is properly seated in the CardFrame. Repeat the steps provided in the RTS1 Calibration section on page 6, if required. AXC-TEMP Temperature Control Card and RTS1 Room Temperature Sensor 7 Pre-Installation 8 AXC-TEMP Temperature Control Card and RTS1 Room Temperature Sensor Programming Programming This section provides the Axcess programming commands for the AXC-TEMP and RTS1. ! ! The TEMP_LEVEL variable receives data from the TEMP card (Device 16), inputs 1 - 4. The data is in three-digit numbers (986 = 98.6 degrees). The SEND_STRING command to the Mini-LCD Panel converts the number to print with a decimal point. The 12 clears the LCD screen. DEFINE_DEVICE TEMP = 16 DEFINE_VARIABLE TEMP_LEVEL1 TEMP_LEVEL2 TEMP_LEVEL3 TEMP_LEVEL4 DEFINE_START CREATE_LEVEL TEMP,1,TEMP_LEVEL1 CREATE_LEVEL TEMP,2,TEMP_LEVEL2 CREATE_LEVEL TEMP,3,TEMP_LEVEL3 CREATE_LEVEL TEMP,4,TEMP_LEVEL4 DEFINE_PROGRAM WAIT 10 { SEND_STRING LCD,"12,ITOA(TEMP_LEVEL1/ 10),'.',ITOA(TEMP_LEVEL1%10)" } ! A UPD command forces the card to update or send all levels to Axcess Master Card (AXC-EM) For additional information, refer to the Axcess Programming Language instruction manual.
