Information About VLC-16160-E
The VLC-16160-E is part of the Alerton VisualLogic VLC-E family and is a BACnet-compliant unitary field controller designed for distributed building automation applications. It operates from 24 VAC power and provides 16 high-resolution universal inputs together with 16 hot-switched triac binary outputs for monitoring sensors and controlling connected equipment. BACnet MS/TP communication over an EIA-485 network supports data rates up to 115.2 kbps, while Alerton VisualLogic software provides graphical programming of field-modifiable DDC sequences. The controller supports BACtalk Microset, Microset II, Microset 4, and compatible Alerton wall sensors and is backward compatible with earlier VLC-16160 and VLC-16160C3 controller installations.
Key Features:
- 32-Point Controller: Provides 16 universal inputs and 16 binary outputs for applications requiring numerous monitored and controlled points.
- Universal Inputs: 16-bit inputs support 10 kΩ Type II thermistors, dry contacts, pulse signals, 0–5 V, 0–10 V, and current inputs.
- Triac Binary Outputs: Sixteen hot-switched outputs provide 24 VAC switching for compatible HVAC and building-control loads.
- Native BACnet MS/TP: Communicates as a BACnet MS/TP master over an EIA-485 network.
- High-Speed Networking: Auto-baud communication supports 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, 76.8, and 115.2 kbps.
- VisualLogic Programming: Supports Alerton's graphical VisualLogic toolset and BD4 DDC programming format for configurable control sequences.
- Fast DDC Execution: Internal logical loop time of approximately 100 ms supports responsive equipment control.
- Nonvolatile Program Storage: Flash memory retains controller programming and configuration data without relying on continuous power.
- 32-Bit Processing: Uses a 32-bit processor architecture for execution of building automation control logic.
- Wall Sensor Support: IN-0 supports compatible BACtalk Microset, Microset II, and Microset 4 intelligent wall sensors.
- Sensor Power Supply: Provides a 20 VDC auxiliary output for powering compatible external sensors.
- Backward Compatibility: Designed to support replacement applications involving earlier VLC-16160 and VLC-16160C3 controllers.
The VLC-16160-E delivers the reliability and precision required for multi-point HVAC, central plant, lighting, and general building automation control applications.
