Figure 1. Wireless Field Level Network Transceiver
(FLNX).
Product Description
The FLNX (Figure 1) is mounted at or near the FLN
device and is powered by 24 Vac. The antenna can
either be direct-mounted to the radio, or mounted
remotely for installations where the location of the
FLNX would cause the antenna to be shielded. For
example, when the FLNX is mounted inside a TEC
enclosure.

Prerequisites
All wiring must conform to NEC and local
codes and regulations.
24 Vac Class II power source available.
Any application specific hardware or devices

Antenna Mounting
Direct Mount Antenna
The preferred mounting configuration is to mount
the FLNX outside the TEC enclosure in a location
where it will establish the maximum number of
communication links with other FLNXs and its
associated FPX. For example, in a VAV application
this will typically be on the bottom of the VAV box in
the ceiling plenum with the entire antenna extending
below the VAV box (Figure 2).
