Connecting the CVTPRO Converter to a Controller
with N2 Screw Terminals
To scan a N2 Bus:
To connect the CVTPRO converter to a controller with
screw terminals (Figure 6):
1
Disconnect the N2 Bus from the N2 master
controller.
1. Disconnect the three N2 wires from the controller
screw terminals and temporarily isolate the
individual bare wires with insulating tape.
2
Remove the N2 plug (with attached N2 wires) from
the controller (4-pin plug on the VMA and 3-pin
plug on other controllers).
2. Remove the 4-pin N2 socket from the CVTPRO
3
4
Connect the 3-pin or 4-pin N2 plug that was
disconnected from the controller in Step 2, to the
4-pin N2 socket on the CVTPRO converter cable.
(See Figure 7.) Observe proper polarity (N2+ is
blue, N2- is white, Ref is red).
3. Connect the exposed N2+ (blue), N2- (white), and
Ref (red) wires from the CVTPRO N2 cable to the
controller screw terminals. Observe proper
polarity.

For proper CVTPRO converter operation when running on Windows NT OSs, Service Pack 6 must be installed.
For proper CVTPRO converter operation when running on Windows 2000 OSs, use the Professional Edition only, and
Service Pack 2 must be installed.

*
On Zone Bus applications running on Windows 2000 OSs, HVAC PRO Version 8.04B or later must also be installed.
When using the VMA14x0 with HVAC PRO software (versions prior to Version 8.04B only) over the Zone Bus with
Windows NT OSs, a Device Conflict box appears whenever the user attempts an operation (for example, upload or
download). To bypass the box, select Yes or No and the box disappears. The selected operation continues as
expected.
Battery Power Recommendations
Table 5: *Typical Battery Life in CVTPRO Converter
AAA Battery:
The CVTPRO converter requires two (user-supplied)
AAA alkaline type batteries on N2 Bus applications
(when the External Power Adapter is not used).
Battery life varies depending on the N2 Bus load,
ambient temperature and type of batteries. See
Table 5 and observe the following guidelines.
