 communication module or replace an existing 

module on the MicroTech III chiller unit controller.

 CAUTION

Electrostatic discharge hazard . Can cause equipment 

damage .

This equipment contains sensitive electronic components that may 

be damaged by electrostatic discharge from your hands. Before you 

handle a communication module, you need to touch a grounded object, 

such as the metal enclosure, in order to discharge the electrostatic 

potential from your body.

 WARNING

Electric shock hazard . Can cause personal injury or 

equipment damage

.

This equipment must be properly grounded. Only personnel 

knowledgeable in the operation of the equipment being controlled must 

perform connections and service to the unit controller.

Installing a new Communication Module

Follow these steps to install a 

L

on

W

orks

 communication 

module on the unit controller. The communication module 

can be connected directly to the unit controller itself or to an 

existing module, if one is attached.

1.  Set the Unit On/Off Switch to “Off” from inside the control 

panel of the unit. 

This must be done prior to installing 

a new communication module. 

See 

Figure 7

 

for switch 

location.

2.  Remove power from the unit controller.
3.  Carefully remove the blue plastic knockout strip on 

the far left end of the unit controller itself (or additional 

module, if present). 

Figure 8 

shows the knockout strip 

after it has been removed from the unit controller.

To prevent damage to the unit controller, insert a 

small flathead screwdriver or similar tool into the 

tab on the bottom of the unit controller and pull the 

screwdriver away from the controller.

4.  Carefully remove the blue plastic knockout strip on the 

right side of the 

L

on

W

orks

 communication module.

orks

 

communication module. Note that it only fits one way and 

that the baffles must line up with corresponding slots in 

L
