Product Usage Instructions

Installation

Ensure power supply meets requirements.

Mount the XT-LB unit using DIN rail or screw mount.
Connect the unit to the Ethernet LAN using appropriate cables.

Set the router address using the rotary DIP switches.

Configuration

Access the i-Vu web server to configure the XT-LB unit.
Add and configure devices connected under the XT-LB, including i-Vu and third-party devices.

Integrate with other protocols such as N2 Open, KNX, and SNMP if required.

Maintenance

Regularly check the LED status indicators for system and network status.
Ensure the real-time clock is functioning correctly, especially after power failures.

Keep the unit clean and free from dust or debris.

INTRODUCTION

The i-Vu XT BACnet Link allows you to integrate other manufacturers’ equipment into the i-Vu building automation system using various protocols, making it easy to tie in equipment such as VFDs, boilers, and lighting systems.

It supports integration via BACnet, Modbus, N2 Open, KNX, M-Bus, and SNMP protocols, enabled by the gen5 driver. Each i-Vu XT BACnet Link supports up to 1,500 third-party BACnet points and up to 500 Flex points for any protocol.
The system can be expanded with Gen5 point packs to support up to 5,000 Flex points.

The i-Vu XT BACnet Link also routes BACnet messages between the i-Vu building automation system backbone (BACnet/IP) and a subnetwork of i-Vu controllers (BACnet MS/TP).
It connects directly to the Ethernet LAN and provides the i-Vu web server with access to the controller and any devices connected under that XT-LB, which can include a mixture of i-Vu and third-party devices.
