Description
The Johnson Controls MM-CVT101-0 is a bus converter module for the Johnson Controls Metasys N2 Bus - an RS-232 to RS-485 converter that lets a PC talk to N2 field controllers. Supplied with a power supply. Reconditioned.
What it is for, in Johnson Controls' own words. Describing the commissioning of a Metasys Unitary (UNT) controller, Johnson Controls states: "The configuration of the UNT can be uploaded, downloaded, and commissioned over the N2 Bus using an Operator Workstation (OWS) with HVAC PRO for Windows and an NCM, or a PC with HVAC PRO for Windows and an MM-CVT101-0."
That is exactly the job this module does. A laptop has a serial port; the N2 Bus is an RS-485 daisy chain. The MM-CVT101-0 sits between them, so an engineer with HVAC PRO for Windows can connect directly to the trunk and upload, download and commission controllers without needing an Operator Workstation or an NCM on site.

Reconditioned, and for a service tool that is often the sensible buy. This module is discontinued, so new old stock is finite. A reconditioned unit that has been tested does the same job for less - and unlike an installed control device, a service tool that fails is an inconvenience rather than a system outage. Ask us about the test and warranty status of this particular unit before ordering; we would rather tell you exactly what has been done to it. We also hold a new MM-CVT101-0 at a separate line if you would prefer it.
About the N2 Bus. Johnson Controls describes it as "a daisy chain communications line... three wires carrying three signals: N2+, N2-, and REF... Three lines are required." All three conductors have to be present at the point you connect - a two-wire connection will not work reliably.
Check your laptop before you order. This module was designed for the era of built-in serial ports and uses a 25-pin to 9-pin conversion. Modern machines generally have neither, so you will most likely also need a USB-to-serial adapter, and older configuration software may want a specific operating system. Tell us what you are running and we will flag anything else you are likely to need.
