Delta Lighting Controller (GE Lighting) DLC-G1212 (Rev 1.3) Installation & Application GuideNetwork TopologyDelta’s GE Lighting Controllers are designed to be installed in a system of V3.22 controllers, and are fullycapable as peer-to-peer controllers on a BACnet MS/TP network as Subnet devices, typically with oneSystem device (DCU or otherwise).DCU/DSC(System Device)BACnet (MS/TP) - Level 3 Network (Subnet)DLC(SubnetDevice)TRMDLC(SubnetDevice)TRMLevel 4Network(LINKnet) 16x16 Controller 12x12 Controller 12x8 Controller 6x6 Controller Room Controller VAV/VVT Controller Lighting Controller BACstat I BACstat II(with or without I/O) Input Field ModulesSubnet Devices DSC-1616EX [DCU] DSC-1616(H/E) DSC-1212(H/E) DSC-1280(H/E) DSC-T305System Devices RS-485NET1 NET2 NET1 NET2RS-232 BACstat I(DNS-14) BACstat II (DNS-24)LINKnet DevicesTRMLevel 4Network(LINKnet)TRMLINKnet Notes:1. Ensure you use the recommendedbalanced cable.2. Ensure the cable is installed as adaisy-chain from one device to thenext. (1000' or 300m maximum).3. Ensure you install MS/TP terminatorboards when you have more than 1 or2 devices.4. Depending on the controller, up to 12devices are supported on a LINKnetnetwork, with limitations on how manyof these may have I/O. (Refer tothe Technical Reference Manual.)ORCAviewOWSDFMEthernet Note:If the DCU or DSC has Ethernet capability, it may exist on anEthernet network with other controllers in the same building, on whichthe ORCAview OWS could reside as well (instead of PTP).PTPMS/TP Notes:1. Ensure you use the recommended balanced cable.2. Ensure the cable is installed as a daisy-chain from one device tothe next (4,000' or 1220m maximum).3. Ensure you install an MS/TP terminator board (TRM-768) on eachend of each MS/TP network.4. The maximum nodes per MS/TP network is 50 without a repeater,or up to 99 with at least one repeater (RPT-768).Network Diagram (with V3.22 Firmware)Network Communications SetupThe GE Lighting Controller communicates on a BACnet MS/TP network at a default speed of 76,800 bps.Refer to the ORCAview Technical Reference Manual for further detail on configuring the BACnet MS/TPnetwork or changing baud rates, etc.Page 10 of 15 Document Edition 1.5
