Lingo® Baseplate Installation Instructions
Description
The Lingo® Energy Infosystem is the next generation control processor that
functions as a system network manager and control monitor in Novar’s Logic
One® Advanced Building Control System.
Lingo monitors and logs the operations of the local
control modules, manages network communications,
and provides expandable and integrated control of the
building’s equipment. Lingo’s processing power,
compatibility, and multiple network capabilities
provide optimum control to cut energy costs, increase
comfort, and reduce equipment maintenance.
This document provides the installation procedures for
mounting the Lingo baseplate, connecting power and
network communications, and making other
appropriate wiring connections.

Lingo® Baseplate Installation Instructions
Precautions
Take the following precautions during installation:
§
Observe national and local electrical codes.
§
Connect 24 VAC power wiring to the terminals marked as 24 VAC only.
Connection to other terminals will damage them.
§
Do not use the Lingo as a final safety device.
§
Make sure that the 24-VAC power wiring is connected to a dedicated 40 VA
transformer. No other devices should be powered by the transformer
connected to the Lingo.
§
Do not ground the secondary side of the transformer for this module.
§
Make sure that the Lingo power cannot be switched off accidentally. The
Lingo requires continuous power for proper operation.
Mounting the Lingo
Baseplate to the Wall
The following items are needed to mount the Lingo baseplate to the wall:
§
The Lingo baseplate
§
The hex wrench (included with the baseplate)
§
Four screws (not provided)
NOTE! The baseplate assembly should be mounted in an
accessible location with the top of the assembly not more
than 6 feet from the floor. The wall should have a flat and
smooth surface to prevent the baseplate from being bent.
When the baseplate is mounted to paneling or drywall,
hollow-wall anchors should be used to insure that the
assembly remains secure.
Use the following procedure and refer to Figure 1, as necessary, to mount the
Lingo baseplate to the wall.

§
§
Use the hex wrench included with the baseplate to loosen the
two screws at the bottom of the baseplate.
Lift off the cover.
2
Position the baseplate against the wall.
3
Mark the wall to show the locations of the four slotted mounting
holes in the corners of the baseplate.
4
Drill holes in the places marked on the wall.
5
Install the hollow-wall or other appropriate fasteners.
6
Turn appropriate screws into the fasteners until approximately
one-quarter inch remains between the wall and the head of the
screws.
7
Position the baseplate over the screws and slide it down until the
screws slide into the slots.
8
Tighten the screws to secure the baseplate.

Lingo® Baseplate Installation Instructions
Supplying the Lingo with
Power
The Lingo is powered by a 24-VAC, 40 VA, Class 2 transformer (not
included—the transformer kit must be purchased separately). It must be installed
not more than 50 feet from the Lingo using minimum 18-gauge wire or mounted
directly to the Lingo baseplate through the knockouts on the sides of the
assembly.
Refer to Figure 2, as necessary, when installing the 24 VAC, Class 2 transformer.

Lingo baseplate terminal strips for wiring connections
DOC. #569065000—B 8/17/06
Lingo® Baseplate Installation Instructions
Step
Procedure
1
Connect the blue and yellow leads from the transformer
secondary to the screw terminals labeled 24 VAC, Class 2, 40
VA, located on the Lingo terminal board.
2
Connect the transformer primary leads (white/black) to a
120-VAC source.
3
Connect the ground terminal (Terminal 36) to a suitable earth
ground.
4
Apply power to check voltage at the 24 VAC terminals.
§
5
Voltage should be approximately 24 to 28 VAC.
Turn off the power until needed.
NOTE! The Lingo requires continuous power for proper
operation. Make sure the Lingo power cannot be switched
off accidentally.
NOTE! The Lingo requires a dedicated transformer for the
electronics. A separate transformer must be provided for
its control outputs.
Wiring the Lingo Inputs
and Outputs
Refer to Figure 2, as necessary, and use the procedure provided below to wire the
Lingo input/output connections.
NOTE! All digital inputs should be dry contact closures.
Outdoor Light Sensor
Novar’s 4- to 20-mA Analog Light Sensor (ALS) should be connected to the
Lingo with two-conductor, shielded cable (Novar WIR-1010, Belden 8761, or
equivalent) wiring.
Step
DOC. #569065000—B 8/17/06
Procedure
1
Connect the white (+) wire from the sensor to the Lingo at
Terminal 2 (+) at the Outdoor Light Sensor input connections.
2
Connect the black (–) wire from the sensor to the Lingo at
Terminal 1 (–) at the Outdoor Light Sensor Input connections.
5
Lingo® Baseplate Installation Instructions
Outdoor Temperature Sensor
For outdoor temperature sensing, Lingo uses the 4 to 20-mA Outdoor
Temperature Sensor (OTS/2). Two-conductor, shielded cable (Novar WIR-1010,
Belden 8761, or equivalent) should be used to connect the sensor to the Lingo.
Step
Procedure
1
Connect the white (+) wire from the sensor to Lingo’s Terminal
4 (+) at the Outdoor Temperature Sensor input connections.
2
Connect the black (–) wire from the sensor to Lingo’s Terminal 3
(–) at the Outdoor Temperature Sensor input connections.
Demand Pulse Input
Step
1
Procedure
Connect the isolated contacts of a pulse-type utility meter or watt
transducer to the terminals labeled Demand Pulse Input.
Phase Loss Sensor
Step
1
Procedure
Connect the normally open, dry contact output of an electrical
phase loss monitor to the terminals labeled Phase Loss Sensor
Input.
Emergency Status Input
Step
1
Procedure
Connect the normally open, dry contact output of an emergency
monitoring system to the terminals labeled Emergency Status
Input.
System Fault Output
Under normal operating conditions, a normally open set of contacts will be held
closed. When an alarm occurs, the contacts open momentarily. This signal
indicates a Lingo fault alarm.

Lingo® Baseplate Installation Instructions
Module Communications
Lingo can accept connections from 128 modules in Novar’s module network
without using a Network Expander Module. (The maximum number of modules
is subject to software limitations.)
A maximum of 32 modules can be connected to each of the A, B, C, and D
Module terminals located along the bottom of the Lingo’s terminal board.
NOTE! Modules with the same physical addresses must not be
connected to the same port. For example, modules with
the address 00 and 64 have the same physical address, so
they cannot both reside on the same COM port (A, B, C,
or D).
Use two-conductor, shielded cable (Novar WIR-1010, Belden 8761, or
equivalent) and the following procedure to make the module communications
connections.
Step
Procedure
1
Connect the black wire from the cable to the minus (–) terminal.
2
Connect the shield wire to the SHIELD terminal.
3
Connect the white wire to the plus (+) terminal.
NOTE! Novar’s Network Expander Module is not used with the
Lingo.
Checking Installation
Check the following items to ensure proper operation:
§
§
Make sure the baseplate is attached securely to the wall.
Check all wiring connections to make sure they are correct and secure.
If the wiring is correct and the baseplate is secure, reattach the Lingo baseplate
cover.
Operation of the Lingo requires the Lingo electronics. The Lingo Electronics
Installation Instructions (Doc. #569066000) provide information about installing
the electronics, making all other required wiring connections, and verifying
proper operation.
