The Series GSTC Carbon Monoxide/Nitrogen Dioxide Gas Transmitter monitors the gas concentration in underground parking garages and loading docks.
The carbon monoxide transmitter is used to measure the exhaust of gasoline engines, while the nitrogen dioxide transmitter is used for diesel engines. The
Series GSTC is compatible with either BACnet or MODBUS ® communication protocol, allowing the transmitter to be used with almost any building management controller. The GSTC output is communicated over an RS-485 wire via BACnet or
MODBUS ® communication protocol. To maximize the accuracy of the Series GSTC, the sensor can be field-calibrated using the A-449 remote LCD display. When the sensor reaches the end of its life, the display will indicate that the sensor needs to be replaced.
Duct Mount
BACnet and MODBUS ® communication protocol recommend limiting the number of nodes in any segment to 32. Therefore, the transceiver may be rated at one unit load. Fractional loads are also acceptable. The Series GSTC accounts as an eighth of a load on the MSTP network.
WARNING Disconnect power supply before installation to prevent electrical shock and equipment damage. Make sure all connections are in accordance with the job wiring diagram and in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Use copper conductors only.
NOTICE Use electrostatic discharge precautions (e.g., use of wrist straps) during installation and wiring to prevent equipment damage.
NOTICE
NOTICE
Avoid locations where severe shock or vibration, excessive moisture, or corrosive fumes are present.
Do not exceed ratings of this device, permanent damage not covered by warranty may result.
NOTICE The electrochemical sensors should be stored in an environment with a minimum humidity level of 20% RH. If the sensor dries out, replacements will not be covered under warranty, but they can be revived by allowing them to stabilize in an environment above 40% RH for 10 days.
Once revived, they need to be recalibrated before use.
INSTALLATION
NOTICE These are general guidelines. Local laws or ordinances will take precedence.
• The transmitter should be mounted at normal breathing height, approximately 5 to 6 ft above the floor.
• The unit may be mounted in the horizontal or vertical position. It should be mounted in an area that is shielded from direct contact with the elements or direct sunlight.
• Mount in an area that will prevent the sensor from having any direct contact with water.
• The unit should be placed in an area that will give an average of the air quality.
Do not place the unit so it will receive direct engine exhaust. Prolonged exposure to direct engine exhaust may damage the sensor.

Wall Mounting
1. Remove the cover plugs from the face of the unit and the top cover.
2. Disconnect the display cable from the USB connector on the main circuit board
(if present).
3. Remove the desired conduit fitting knock out and install conduit fitting (not provided).
4. Position the transmitter where it is to be mounted and mark the mounting holes in each corner of the housing.
5. Drill or punch out marked locations.
6. Place the transmitter box over mounting holes on wall and align. Install wall mount screws (not provided) in mounting holes.
7. Proceed with wiring diagrams according to Figures 3 and 4.
8. Set DIP Switches SW1 and SW2 as desired. Refer to Figure 5, Figure 6, and
Appendix I.
9. Reconnect the LCD cable to the USB port on the main circuit board (if present).
10. Replace cover and cover plugs on the face of the unit.
CO:
Locate GSTC carbon monoxide transmitter about 5 ft (1.5 m) off the floor. Carbon monoxide weighs about the same as air and distributes evenly throughout the monitored space. Install GSTC CO alarm at least 15 to 20 ft (4.6 to 6.1 m) away from boiler or fuel burning heat source. Avoid extremely dusty, dirty, humid or greasy areas. Do not place in direct sunlight or areas subjected to extreme temperature. Do not place in turbulent air, near fans, heat vents, air conditioners, air returns or open windows. Blowing air may prevent CO from reaching the CO sensor.
NO
2
:
NO
2 sensors should be mounted in the breathing zone, 4 to 6 ft (1.2 to 1.8 m) from the floor. This is primarily because NO
2 is a poisonous gas which should be detected in the area where people would be exposed to it, but also because 4 to 6 ft from the floor is an appropriate elevation to detect NO
2 gas.
Duct Mounting
Duct mounting kit includes an air flow pitot tube, air filter with barbed connections, two short pieces of tubing, and one long piece of tubing.
1. Mount the pitot tube into the duct observing the flow direction marked on the pitot tube.
2. Attach the two short pieces of tubing to the barbed connections on each side of the air filter. See Figure 2.
3. Attach the remaining side of one of the short pieces of tubing to the barbed connection on the transmitter.
4. Attach the remaining side of the other short piece of tubing to the high port on the pitot tube.
5. Attach the long piece of tubing to the open barbed connection on the transmitter.
6. Attach the other end of the long tubing to the low port on the pitot tube.
Figure 3 shows how to connect the GSTC in a network containing a common power supply. Use a cable containing two twisted pairs. One pair is to be used for the power and common. The other pair is to be used for A(-) and B(+). Attach the shields together with a wire nut. This configuration is not suitable for AC supplies.
Use a DC supply only. Care should be taken that there are not too many devices powered from the same supply as voltage drops will occur in the wiring. If you have many devices, or have long cable runs, the local supply configuration, shown in
Figure 4, may be a better choice.

All devices in the network should be daisy-chained. Star connections and T connections are not permitted.
The A(-) and B(+) lines must be terminated at both ends with a 120 ohm resistor.
If the GSTC is an end device it has an on-board resistor that may be used. See
Table 1 to enable it.
The network must be biased properly. If needed, there are bias resistors on-board the GSTC. No more than two sets of bias resistors should be enabled in the network. See Table 1 to enable them.
Dip Switch Configurations
Use DIP Switch SW1 (see Figure 5) to configure the RS-485 address of the device.
A valid address depends on the protocol selected. Valid BACnet addresses range from 1 to 127. Valid MODBUS ® communication protocol addresses range from 1 to
247. By default, the device is shipped with MODBUS ® communication protocol selected and the address set to 127, as shown in Figure 5. A valid and unused address should be set before connecting to an existing network. See Appendix I to configure the required address using DIP Switch SW1. The device will not function properly if an invalid address is set. During the power up sequence, the LCD (if present) will display the RS-485 address as the primary value and either “BAC” to indicate BACnet or “MOD” to indicate MODBUS ® communication protocol as the primary text. If the RS-485 address is invalid, the invalid address is shown as the primary value with “ERR” as the primary text, and the red LED will periodically blink once.
Figure 5
Use DIP Switch SW2 (see Figure 6) to configure other hardware and software options. Table 1 shows available options. Table 2 shows supported configurations for either BACnet or MODBUS ® communication protocol.

Auto Serial Configuration
Use the auto serial configuration to enable the device to determine the baud rate, parity, and stop bits directly from the serial traffic. After a valid RS-485 address is chosen, the GSTC can be quickly and easily deployed. The auto serial configuration procedure assumes a serial configuration appropriate to the chosen protocol, shown in Table 2. Otherwise, the serial communication must be configured manually in the setup menu.

To activate auto serial configuration, set a valid RS-485 address using DIP Switch
SW1, connect the serial bus, common and power wires, and apply power. The device will power up and begin examining the serial bus for communication.
When the device is installed offline or away from the main network, it is necessary to generate the appropriate traffic in order to configure the serial communication whether BACnet or MODBUS ® communication protocol is selected. While the serial configuration is in progress, the device may not respond. The device may require multiple read requests to complete the serial configuration process.
The auto serial configuration process is completed once a message addressed to the device is received and processed successfully. If the serial configuration of the bus changes, a power cycle of the device is required to restart the auto serial configuration process.
More detailed information for BACnet protocol can be found in Appendix II, and information for MODBUS ® communication protocol can be found in Appendix III.

, order part number: A-506.
WARNING Sensors contain acid and are harmful if handled improperly. Do not attempt to open sensors. Sensors should be disposed of according to local laws.
Replacing The Sensor
1. Remove the cover plugs from the face of the unit and top cover. Locate the sensor, see Figure 1. The sensor is mounted on three pin sockets. The circuit board is either labeled “CO SENSOR” or “NO2 SENSOR” underneath the sensor.
2. Remove and discard the used sensor.
3. Remove the shorting wire spring located at the bottom of the new sensor.
4. Install the new sensor into the three pin sockets.
5. The unit must be re-calibrated whenever a new sensor is installed.
6. Allow 30 minutes for the unit to come to temperature equilibrium prior to calibration. The unit has internal temperature compensation, and the sensor must be at the same temperature as the unit to calibrate properly.
CALIBRATION
Figure 8, located after Appendix III, shows how to set up a GSTC for calibration with an auxiliary display. An auxiliary display is required for calibration unless an
LCD model of the GSTC was purchased. The procedure in Appendix IV shows how to set the range, and calibrate the span and zero adjustments.
MAINTENANCE/REPAIR
Upon final installation of the Series GSTC, no routine maintenance is required with the exception of sensor replacement and calibration. As with all electrochemical type gas sensors, routine calibration is required. It is recommended that units be re-calibrated at 6 month intervals, to maintain the published accuracy, or as required by local ordinances or other requirements. The units will maintain 5% accuracy if they are re-calibrated at 12 month intervals.
Except for the sensor replacement and calibration, the Series GSTC is not field serviceable and should be returned if repair is needed. Field repair should not be attempted and may void warranty.
WARRANTY/RETURN
Refer to “Terms and Conditions of Sales” in our catalog and on our website.
Contact customer service to receive a Return Goods Authorization number before shipping the product back for repair. Be sure to include a brief description of the problem plus any additional application notes.
Appendix I: Setting the RS-485 Address
The address assignment is determined by adding the values for each of the switches that are in the “ON” position. The transmitter comes from the factory with all of the DIP switches in the “ON” position, except position 1 as shown in Figure 9 below.
The address of the transmitter in Figure 9 is 127. This final value is determined by adding the individual values of the DIP switches together. The values for each DIP switch are shown below in Table 5. When adding the individual values for Figure 9,
0+64+32+16+8+4+2+1=127, which is the correct factory setting.

Another example would be if the desired address was 53. The only DIP switches in the “ON” position would be switches 3, 4, 6, and 8 as shown in Figure 10 below.
By adding the individual values of each switch in the “ON” position,
0+0+32+16+0+4+0+1=53, the desired address is obtained.

Figure 10
NOTICE The minimum possible address would be 0 when all DIP switches are in the “OFF” position, and the maximum possible address would be 255 when all DIP switches are in the “ON” position. When BACnet protocol is selected the transmitter only has valid address from 1 to 127. When
MODBUS ® communication protocol is selected the transmitter only has valid address from 1 to 247. Any address outside the selected protocol’s range will give an error.

Table 7: Object Properties
The default object identifier is 607xxx, where xxx is replaced by the address set by the DIP Switch SW1. The object identifier value will change as the address changes. When a specific object identifier is written via BACnet, that value is stored and changes to the address will no longer affect the object identifier. The object name reflects the current object identifier. When a specific object name is written via BACnet, that value is stored and changes to the object identifier will no longer affect the object name.
