Introduction

This document describes best practices, specifications, wiring rules, and application

information to implement robust and reliable communications networks.

About the ECY Series Controller

The ECY Series Controller is a modular and scalable platform that is used to control a wide

range of HVAC applications. It uses IP protocol to communicate on wired Ethernet networks

and Wi-Fi to communication on wireless networks.

This user guide also explains how to connect to the ECLYPSE controller’s configuration

interfaces.

About the IP Protocol Suite

Distech Controls’ECLYPSE Series controllers use a widely used IP protocol to

communicate with each other and with other applications for control and supervision. What is

commonly referred to as IP is actually a multi-layered protocol suite that reliably transmits

data over the public internet and privately firewalled-off intranets. As integral part of our

interconnected world, this protocol is used by applications such as the World Wide Web,

email, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), datashares, and so on.

ECLYPSE Series controllers are able to work across geographic boundaries as a unified

entity for control and administration purposes.

About BACnet®

The BACnet®ANSI/ASHRAE™ Standard 135-2008 specifies a number of Local Area

Network (LAN) transport types. Distech Controls’ controllers support both BACnet/IP and

BACnet Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) communications data bus (based on the

EIA-485 medium) as a local network for internetworking of supervisory controllers and field

controllers.
