Andover Continuum
I/O Modules

TM

The Andover Continuum intelligent building system allows you to mix and match various combinations of DIN rail-mounted modules — flexible I/O, CPU and power supply, and your choice of several user interface modules — in a single controller location to meet your building’s control and monitoring needs. With the Andover Continuum system, as your networkgrows, simply add or replace I/O modules as needed.
• Flexible, Modular Design Fits Every Application • User-Configurable I/O Selection to Meet Specific Control Needs • DIN Rail Mounting Provides Easy Installation and System Expansion • NEMA 1-Style Enclosure Available • Three-Position Front Cover for Easy Access • Built-in Quick-Release Fasteners—No Tools Required! • Removable Input/OutputConnectors for Easy Installation • Slide-Together Power/Communications Connections • Optional Remote Mounting • Push-Button Network Commissioning • Choice of RS-485 or FTT-10A Media

The Andover Continuum I/O modules feature a sleek, lightweight casing designed for natural convection cooling, and a 3-position front cover for easy access. Built-in quick-release fasteners at the back of each I/O moduleare provided for DIN rail mounting — no tools required. These fasteners also snap into a locked position for panel mounting. Input and output connectors are located at the bottom of each I/O module and are removable for easy field access and maintenance. All Andover Continuum modules are designed for mounting in an optional NEMA 1-style Andover Continuum enclosure. The Andover Continuum I/Omodules communicate with the Andover Continuum NetController CPU module using Andover LON communications. Like all Andover Continuum modules, the I/O modules slide together via built-in connectors on either side so network expansion is quick and easy. Both power transmission and communication signals feed through these connectors. For added convenience, in applications such as door control or lightingcontrol, a single module or groups of I/O modules can be remotely located and connected using approved cable, and powered from a local power supply. Each I/O module features its own push-button for quick and easy network commissioning. cOMMunIcatIOn chOIces All Andover Continuum modules are available in either the standard RS-485 or the Free Topology (FTT-10A) media interface. RS-485 is perfectfor local mounting applications and is a lower cost media choice. FTT-10A provides increased flexibility and reliability. FTT modules are connected using a twisted-pair cable and can be wired in a bus, star, distributed star, or even a ring topology for added resilience. Note: You cannot mix and match both media types on the same I/O bus.
