Everex Communications, Inc WC-31 Users Manual:
is used in energy management, building control, HVAC applications. It communicates with the host and/or other WC-31 units in the unlicensed 2.4Ghz ISM band. It is powered by a 24VAC power source. The unit consists of the following I/O functions:
WC-31 is a 2.4Ghz 802.15.4 wireless digital analog I/O transceiver which 1. Three relays: 1A/30V, normally open relays. 2. Two thermistor inputs: Connect to 30K thermistor, the unit can provide remote temperature reading. 3. Serial communication bus: Other serial peripheral devices can be connected to the unit for providing expansion of the additional digital inputs/outputs or other control function, for example, thermostat or HVAC controller. One of the important features of WC-31 is its mesh network, self-forming and self-healing capability. Each WC-31 unit is a router which can relay information and command to other WC-31s. If one of WC-31 in the network path becomes non-functional, WC-31 can automatically seek other WC-31 to reform the network connection. Installation:
There are a 12 pin screw terminal and a 4 pin serial communication connector. The 12 pin screw terminal provides connections to thermistors for temperature measurement and to other HVAC devices. The 4 pin connector provides serial communication and 24VAC power to other serial device, such as thermostat or HVAC controller. Please refer to the picture below for pin assignment of each connector. WC-31 should be mounted high up on the wall to provide maximum RF communication range. 12 pin screw terminal pin assignment:
