Introduction
This Translator Board (TRB) acts as a bridge connection between the Network Interface Module or Zone Panel Control and the 12 Volt terminal block to the new ERV & HRV. The TRB is used to interface the following devices to the Network Interface Module (NIM–P/N STSTX[BB,CC]NIM01) or the Zone Panel Control (P/N SYST[BB,CC]4Z01) BGRY terminal connections so they can be controlled by the Communicating Control System. The TRB will transfer the signal from the BGRY terminals that are on the NIM or Zone Panel Control to the 12 Volt terminal block on the on new ventilator which has the 12V, D-, D+, GND terminals. The following devices do not have communication ability and the NIM is required to control:
· Energy Recovery Ventilator / Heat Recovery Ventilator (ERV/HRV) (when zoning is not applied). See Table 1 for ERV/HRV models that require the TRB and the NIM or Zone Panel Control.
· A non-communicating single-speed heat pump with furnace (dual fuel application only).
· A non-communicating two-speed outdoor unit.

! CAUTION
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation.
To prevent possible damage to the CRM do not mount on plenum, ductwork, or flush against surface.
Wiring Considerations Ordinary thermostat wire is ideal when wiring the Control System (shielded cable is not necessary). Use 18 22 AWG or larger for typical installations. Lengths over 100 ft. should use 18 AWG or larger wire. Cut off or fold back and tape any unneeded conductors. Plan the routing of wiring early to avoid possible problems later.
NOTE: BGRY terminal connections require a four-wire connection; however, it is good practice to run thermostat cable having more than four wires in the event of a damaged or broken wire during installation.
The following color-code is recommended for each BGRY terminal connection: · B–Blue · G–Green · R–Red · Y–Yellow
Use any color wiring for the following ERV/HRV terminal connection below:
12V, D, D+, GND
It is not mandatory that the above color code be used, but each connector in the system MUST be wired consistently. NOTE: Improper wiring of the BGRY and 12V, D, D+, GND connectors will cause the system to operate improperly. Check to make sure all wiring is correct before proceeding with installation or turning on power.
Install Components Install the Translator Board
Plan wire routing before mounting. The translator board is designed so that wires can enter it from both sides.
· Remove the top cover and mount the TRB to the wall, using screws and wall anchors provided.
Ventilator (ERV/HRV) Wiring
The TRB can control a new Energy Recovery Ventilator / Heat Recovery Ventilator (ERV / HRV). Connect four wires from the TRB (see ventilator installation instructions for details) to the connector labeled (12V, D-, D+, GND). This label identifies the terminal connection of the wire to match the ventilator wire terminal connection (12V, D-, D+, GND) on the 12 Volt terminal block. See Fig. 4.
System Start-up
Do the start-up process from the Control installation instructions.
Commissioning of the Wall Control
This section addresses initial power up (or commissioning) of a new Infinity® or Evolution® ConnexTM Control. The control will communicate and identify all components in the control. The following is a typical example for a communicating variable-speed furnace / fan coil with a 2-stage air-conditioner / heat pump (including HYBRID HEAT® dual fuel system). The process may vary for other types of systems. See the HVAC equipment Installation Instructions for more details, as provided. Upon commissioning the system with translator board installed, you will see the following menus (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3) under equipment summary.
