NOTE A LogiStat sensor connected to the ZN551 uses IN-4 and IN-5. An RS
room sensor connected to the Rnet port does not use these inputs.
Room sensors
You can wire an RS Standard, RS Plus or RS Pro to the ZN551's Rnet port.
Or you can wire a LogiStat or LogiStat Plus to the ZN551's LStat port. See the
RS Room Sensors Technical Instructions (http://info.automatedlogic.com) or
the LogiStat Sensors Technical Instructions (http://info.automatedlogic.com).
NOTE The ZN551 does not support the LogiStat Pro.
Digital outputs
The ZN551 has 5 digital outputs. You can connect each output to a
maximum of 24 Vac/Vdc. Each output is a dry contact rated at 1 A, 24 V
maximum and is normally open.
Analog outputs
The ZN551 has 1 analog output that supports voltage devices from 0-10 Vdc.
The controlled device must have a minimum of 2000 Ohms resistance
measured from its input to ground and must share the same ground as the
control module.
To mount the ZN551

Screw the ZN551 into an enclosed panel using the mounting slots provided
on the cover plate. Leave about 2 in. (5 cm) on each side of the control
module for wiring.

Wiring for power

CAUTIONS
The ZN551 is a Class 2 device (less than 30 Vac, 100 VA). Take
appropriate isolation measures when mounting it in a control panel
where non-Class 2 devices (120 Vac or greater) are present.
Do not power pilot relays from the same transformer that powers the
ZN551.
NOTE You can power several control modules from the same transformer if
you maintain the same polarity.
To wire for power
Remove power from the 24 Vac transformer.
Pull the screw terminal connector from the control module's power
terminals labeled Gnd and 24 Vac.
Connect the transformer wires to the screw terminal connector.
Apply power to the transformer.
Measure the voltage at the ZN551s power input terminals to verify that
the voltage is within the operating range of 21.626.4 Vac.
Insert the screw terminal connector into the ZN551's power terminals.
Verify that the Power LED is on and the Run LED is blinking.
To address the ZN551

You can address the ZN551 before or after you wire the control module for
power.
1
If the ZN551 has been wired for power, pull the screw terminal connector
from the control module's power terminals labeled Gnd and 24 Vac. The
control module reads the address each time you apply power to it.
Using the rotary switches, set the control module's address to match the
Address in the control module's Device Properties dialog box in
SiteBuilder. Set the Tens (10's) switch to the tens digit of the address,
and set the Ones (1's) switch to the ones digit.
EXAMPLE If the control modules address is 35, point the arrow on the
Tens (10's) switch to 3 and the arrow on the Ones (1's) switch to 5.

Downloading memory
Download memory to a control module to do either of the following:
Send control programs, the module driver, editable properties, and

schedules to a control module for the first time. The first download takes
longer than subsequent downloads.
Send changes such as a change to a control program, an upgrade to the

module driver, or a change to the control module's address.
The ZN551 can store one DRV_ZN module driver and one control program.
CAUTIONS
The control module automatically halts before and restarts after a

memory download, causing the shutdown and restart of any equipment
controlled by the module.
Downloading memory overwrites all control programs in the control

module causing it to lose stored data.
You download memory from WebCTRL. If your network is complete, you can
download from any network browser. If not complete, connect a laptop with a
local copy of the system database to the ZN551's local access port. See steps
13 of To communicate through the local access port (page 16).
To download memory
in WebCTRL
On WebCTRL's CFG tree, click Download.
Select the Memory checkbox.

NOTE A memory download includes a Parameters and Schedules
download.
On the Network tree on the right, select the control module you want to
download to.
Click Add to add the control module to the Download Items list.
Click Download Selected Items.
If the download fails, the control module appears in the Failures box. Since
this indicates a system problem, do not clear the failure. Locate and resolve
the problem, then retry the download. To retry, select the control module in
the Failures box, then repeat steps 4 and 5 above.
To assign inputs or outputs to points

To use an input or output, you must assign it to its corresponding point in
the control program.
1
In WebCTRL's GEO tree, select the equipment controlled by the ZN551.
From the menu
, select Point Checkout.
In the Num field for each point, type the number of the control module's
corresponding input or output. For example, if you use DO1 on the
ZN551 for the point Fan S/S, type 1 in the Num field for Fan S/S.
NOTE Exp (expander number) is 0 for the ZN551.
Enter the appropriate values for each input and output in the remaining
columns. See Input values, Output values, Resolution values and
Offset/Polarity values below.
NOTE You can also enter these values in EIKON for WebCTRL.
Input values
If you have not performed the initial memory download to the ZN551, you
must download now so you can verify inputs and outputs.
To verify each input's operation, force each sensor to a known value, then
compare it to the Value shown on the control program's Point Checkout
tool in WebCTRL.
To verify each output's operation, lock each output to a known condition

on the control program's Point Checkout tool in WebCTRL, then verify
that the equipment operates correctly.

N/A
The sensor reads a value and sends a corresponding signal (Volt, mA, or psi) to the
ZN551's physical input. The Analog Input microblock uses the Min and Max values to
linearly translate the signal into the engineering value used in subsequent control logic.
For example, set Min to 0 and Max to 10 for a 420 mA sensor that measures velocity
from 0.0 to 10.0 inches/second so that when the input reads 4 mA, the microblock
outputs a value of 0. Similarly, when the input reads 8 mA, the microblock outputs a
value of 2.5.

Output
The Analog Output microblock uses the Min and Max values to linearly translate its
EIKON for WebCTRL wire value into a physical output signal (Volt, mA, or psi) sent from
the ZN551 to an actuator. For example, set Min to 0 and Max to 100 for an Analog
Output microblock that receives a 0 to 100% open signal from a PID microblock and
that controls a 010 Vdc actuator so that when the PID signal is 100%, the ZN551
output is 10 Vdc. Similarly, when the PID signal is 50%, the ZN551 output is 5 Vdc.
Resolution is not particular to a type of input or output, but the module

driver handles analog and digital (binary) inputs and outputs differently. To
set these values appropriately, you should understand how the module driver
uses them.
Resolution
Notes
Analog Input (BAI)
The driver truncates the microblock's present value according

to the resolution.
EXAMPLE If the calculated present value is 13.789 and you
set the Resolution to 0.1, the control program uses 13.7 for
any calculations downstream from the microblock.
Analog Output (BAO)
The driver truncates the wire input value to the microblock

before performing any scaling calculations.
EXAMPLE If the wire input value is 13.789 and you set the
Resolution to 0.1, the microblock uses 13.7 for any scaling
calculations.
Digital Inputs and

Outputs
Offset/Polarity values
N/A
Offset/Polarity is not particular to a type of input or output, but the module

driver handles analog and digital (binary) inputs and outputs differently. To
set these values appropriately, you should understand how the module driver
uses them.
Offset/Polarity
Notes
Analog Input (BAI)
Offset value (positive or negative) adds a fine adjustment to a

sensor reading after all scaling for calibration.
EXAMPLE If a sensor reads 74.9F when the actual
measured value is 73.6F, enter an Offset of 1.3 to
calibrate the sensor to the measured value.
Analog Output (BAO)
You can use the Offset value (positive or negative) to

calibrate an output, but you generally do not need to. If used,
the driver adds the offset value to the wire input value before
performing any scaling calculations to determine the ZN551's
output.
11
Offset/Polarity
Notes
Digital (Binary) Input

(BBI)
Polarity determines the microblock's present value when no

signal is received from the equipment.
When no signal is received from the equipment, if Polarity is
set to:
normalpresent value is off
reversedpresent value is on
Digital (Binary) Output

(BBO)
Polarity determines the ZN551's output based on the control

program's signal to the microblock.
When the control program's signal to the microblock is on, if
Polarity is set to:
normaloutput is on
reversedoutput is off
NOTE Regardless of Polarity, the output will be off if the
ZN551 loses power.
