TAC I/A Series 1

MNL-100, MNL-150, MNL-200 Series Controllers

I/A Series Micronet MNL-100, MNL-150, MNL-200
The TAC I/A Series™ MicroNet™ MNL‑100,
MNL‑150, and MNL‑200 Series Controllers are
interoperable controllers designed in accordance
with LonMark™ guidelines. When programmed
using WorkPlace Tech Tool, or loaded with a pre-
engineered application, these controllers provide
control for packaged rooftops, heat pumps, fan coils,
unit ventilators, and similar applications.
Controllers feature Sensor Link (S-Link) support, LED
indication, screw terminal blocks, as well as DIN rail
or panel mounting ability.
The MNL‑100, MNL‑150, and MNL‑200 series
controllers use the same physical packaging, but
differ in the type and number of onboard I/O points
SPECIFICATIONS they provide.

Communications
LonWorks Networks
A LonWorks communications network uses a
TP/FT-10 Free Topology configuration. Controllers
on a LonWorks network can communicate with each
other in a peer-to-peer fashion. A LonWorks network
has a communications speed of 78 kbps, using
unshielded, twisted-pair cabling, with connections
that are not polarity sensitive.
S-Link
The Sensor Link (S-Link) communications wiring
provides power and a communication interface for an

setpoint adjustment, and occupancy override. This

connection uses two-wire, unshielded cable and is
not polarity sensitive. Maximum wire length allowed
between a controller and a MicroNet Sensor is 200 ft
(61 m).

1 A PC can be connected to the LONWORKS TP/FT-10 Network, either directly or through the LONWORKS network jack of a
LONWORKS controller or MN-Sxxx Wall Sensor. The PC must have an Echelon™ LONTALK™ adapter card.
2 Programming any of the TAC I/A Series controllers, or the TAC I/A Series MN 800 controller, requires WorkPlace Tech Tool.
3 This controller is not suitable for exposed mounting on a wall or panel, or in any other easily accessible place due to the
possibility of personal contact with the high-voltage terminals. It must be mounted inside a suitable grounded metal enclosure.
4 MicroNet Sensors can be connected to any MN controller.
5 A PDA running the Pocket I/A interface software may be used to communicate with TAC I/A Series MicroNet controllers.
6 When routers are used, WP Tech is able to communicate through them to any of the TAC I/A Series devices on the network.
