Congratulations on choosing the TCS QWL4.1 Integrated Building Manager! For facilities managers responsible for
multiple sites across multiple geographic locations, the QWL4.1 Integrated Building Manager provides the tools to
increase energy savings, reduce operational and maintenance costs, provide better indoor air quality, and increase
occupant comfort.
The QWL4.1 Building Manager utilizes Ubiquity Cloud™ building management technology, a QD2040d Panel Gateway, an
SLQ218 Lighting Controller, and an SEQ100 Pulse Meter for continuous monitoring of electrical, gas, and water usage.
This manual includes all the information you will need to properly install and set up your QWL4.1 . It is divided into four
sections:
• Installation: The Installation section covers the initial mounting, input wiring and connection of the QWL4.1 to your
network of control devices. Read and throughly understand this section before beginning the actual installation of the
unit.
• Gateway Conguration: Most units come with the Building Manager’s Gateway precongured; if your unit’s Building
Manager was precongured by TCS, you can skip this section. However, some customers order their units without
being congured beforehand; for those customers, we include this section which contains essential information
necessary to set up the Building Manager’ Gateway.
• Lighting/Pulse Meter Programming: Lighting and pulse meter programming can be accomplished via Ubiquity Cloud.
Read the Lighting/Meter Programming section to learn the basics of properly programming the SLQ218 Lighting
Controller and the SEQ100 Pulse Meter to your site specications.
• Appendices: Appendices A, B, and C provide supplemental information regarding connecting a laptop or keyboard
and monitor directly to the QWL4.1 for local programming and/or conguring the components of the QWL4.1.
Appendix D provides information on using TCS Insight software, a service tool that can be used to program the QWL
locally. TCS Insight is a very powerful service tool that should be used only by trained technicians.
If you have any questions regarding your QWL4.1 or your network, do not hesitate to contact TCS Technical Support at
800.288.9383, ext. 2.

Installation
Material List
• QWL4.1 Integrated Building Manager Panel
• External Power Supply
Wall Mounting
The QWL4.1 is designed for wall mounting using four #10 pan head screws.
The unit MUST be powered down while mounting to the wall.
When selecting a location to mount the QWL4.1 , be sure to allow space for cable connections.
Locate the QWL4.1 away from excessive dust, heat sources, moisture or direct sunlight. The ideal environment is a server
room. The temperature of the room should not exceed 77ºF (25ºC); good ventilation is mandatory to provide sufcient air
cooling.
Wiring Access Port
The QWL. 4.0 comes with a one-inch wiring access port pre-drilled in the top of the unit. Drilling into the unit to add
additional wiring access ports is at your own risk. Use caution when drilling into the unit; be sure to capture all metal
shavings.
The unit MUST be powered down while drilling into the unit.
Factory IP Network Address Conguration
The QWL4.1 is typically purchased pre-congured to customer-specic IP networks and no additional software
conguration is required. If your QWL4.1 was purchased without pre-conguration, it will be shipped with DHCP client
enabled.
The IP network conguration page is accessible through a web browser via a computer, e.g., a laptop, that is physically
connected to the unit with a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable. Contact your network administrator to determine the local IP
address (refer to the MAC address available on the product label).

Installation
Power and Communication Connections
Make the following power and communication connections:
Power: Attach the included power supply to the side of the unit and insert the plug into a 120VAC outlet. Upon connection,
the unit should power up automatically. If it does not, press the Reset button located on the front Indicator Panel once to
restart the unit.
Exterior views
Cloud Connectivity Ethernet Port: Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the side of the QWL4.1 . Connect the
other end of the cable to your network switch port as determined by your local network administrator or IT department.
NOTE: If using a cellular modem provided by TCS, connect the Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the modem (contact
TCS Technical Support at 800.288.9383, ext. 2 for additional information).

NOTE: The Local Management Ethernet Port (L) on the side of the Ubiquity Cloud Gateway is used only for local onsite
management of the QWL4.1 device. Optionally, this port can be configured as secondary Internet fail-over port (see
Appendix D: Configuring Local Management Port as a Fail-Over Port on page 40 ).
COM Ports (RS-485 Network): Connect up to two RS-485 Networks to the inputs on Com Port panel or on the Serial Board
adjacent to the Gateway. (see RS-485 Controller Network Wiring & Setup on page 10).
USB Ports 1 – 4: As an option, you can connect up to 64 RS-485 controller networks via the four USB ports on the side of
the Ubiquity Cloud Gateway, by using QD1010 USB-to-RS-485 converters (not included).

RS-485 Controller Network Wiring & Setup
The QWL4.1 can handle as many as 64 connected controllers on each port, including COM and serial ports. All
controllers connected to the network must be programmed with the same communication baud rate as well as a unique
communication address from 0 to 255, excluding 248. The baud rate is programmed onsite locally through the monitor
and keyboard, or through remote access through the network. On controllers with displays, this can be done from the
controller using its keypad and display, by using TCS Insight software, or by calling TCS Technical Support (800.288.9383,
ext. 2). TCS Technical Support can access the QWL4.1 online and change the address of a controller.
Network Wiring
The QWL4.1 has a serial board with two RS-485 ports that will accept Modbus and TCSbus Connections. These are the
recommended ports to use for your controller networks.
Recommended RS-485 port locations on serial board
NOTE: There is an additional RS-485 port on the Lighting Control/Pulse Meter Panel labelled “External RS-485”; however,
that port will only accept TCSbus.
