GENERAL INFORMATION
ACI’s Wireless Series MOD9200LON network transceiver utilizes reliable Spread Spectrum Mesh Network Radio technology. Together with other ACI wireless sensors and controls, the system can be used to transmit remote sensor readings, status/alarm indications, control signals and outputs wirelessly. It is compatible with LON system using FTT-10 (free topology twisted pair) network wiring. Up to 50 separate physical wireless sensor transmitters and/or wireless remote output (analog & digital) modules can be used with one MOD9200LON Transceiver and up to 100 data points and 100 outputs can be monitored and controlled with one (1) MOD9200 Transceiver. The MOD9200LON is available in 6 different versions based on pre-defined sensor types and inputs. The data is in the form of SNVT’s (standard network variable type).
The maximum radio transmission distance is dependent on the building type. In a typical commercial building with steel I-Beam construction, concrete floors with reinforcing rod, and metal stud walls, it can be expected that transmissions will penetrate horizontally approximately through 200-300 feet of floor, walls, furniture and air.
Generally, a wireless system will cover at least three floors–one floor above, and one floor below the receiver location. In some buildings with favorable transmission characteristics the system may cover more floors – see FIGURE 3 (p. 2). Wireless sensor transmitters should be installed within 200 to 300 feet of the MOD9200 transceiver. RR2552 signal repeaters can be installed as needed to increase transmission distance between sensors and receivers – see FIGURE 2 (p. 2). NOTE: For best results, no more than three (3) repeaters should be installed per wireless system, and no more than two (2) repeaters in series.
PRECAUTIONS
- To maintain high performance, do not install sensors, repeaters, or receivers in the following areas:
- Inside metal enclosure / panel, inside or immediately next to elevator shaft or elevator banks
- In front of or immediately next to large trees or large body of water
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Mount the MOD9200LON near FTT-10 access point, 1’ below the ceiling, using four #8 screws.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
WIRING PRECAUTIONS
- Do NOT run FTT-10 wiring in any conduit with line voltage (24/120/230 VAC).
- Remove power before wiring. NEVER connect or disconnect wiring with power applied.
- The MOD9200LON is full wave rectified.
- It is recommended that you use an isolated UL-listed Class 2 transformer when powering the unit with 24 VAC. Failure to wire the devices with the correct polarity when sharing transformers may result in damage to any device powered by the shared transformer.
WIRING
24VAC Input – Connect 24VAC 60Hz to the power terminal blocks (TB1 terminal) using 16 to 26 AWG twisted pair cable.
LON FFT-10
Use Eschelon® recommended 22 AWG wire or compatible cable for FTT-10 wiring. If the MOD9200LON is the only device on the bus or if it is the last device on the bus, wire the left set of “A&B” terminals – see FIGURE 4 (p. 3). If the MOD9200LON is in the middle of the bus and needs to be daisy chained, both sets of “A” and “B” terminals must be used: the left set for incoming wiring, and the right set for outgoing – see FIGURE 5 (p. 3).
Tie the shield wires together using a wire nut and do not terminate the shield wire in the shield terminal block. The shield wire is to be grounded at the controller end only. Do not terminate the shield wire in the shield terminal block. Do not use “Star” or “T” wiring.
CONFIGURATION OF TRANSCEIVER
The sensors need to be configured to the MOD9200LON using the configuration program (included), a laptop, and a crossover cable. Refer to the user manual for programming, configuration data map, and downloading configuration program to the transceiver.
