Part No. 24-10737-91, Rev A
Issued January 2017
Applications
The WNC1800 Wireless Network Coordinator (WNC) Gateway, equipped with a ZFR1820 or ZFR1823 Pro Coordinator
Radio, provides an IP interface to wireless enabled field controllers (WEFCs) equipped with a ZFR1821 or ZFR1822
Pro Wireless Router, or TEC3000 wireless thermostats, and a supervisory controller in a Metasys® building automation
system. The WNC Gateway routes messages between the Ethernet network and the WNC1800/ZFR182x Pro
Wireless Field Bus (ZFR Pro) network.
The WNC Gateway also allows you to use smartphones, tablets, or laptop computers to interact with building
automation equipment controllers on a ZFR Pro network. The WNC Gateway serves up web pages through a built-in
Wi-Fi access point or Ethernet connection, which allows you to view and edit equipment controller configuration
parameters, setpoints, schedules, and alarms through a browser. A mobile application is not required to use the
WNC Gateway with your mobile device.
You can use the WNC Gateway in both Metasys® systems and Facility Explorer systems. The WNC Gateway
supports the TEC3000 Series Wireless controller and any Johnson Controls® Wireless Enabled Field Controller
(WEFC).
The Wi-Fi wireless connection on the WNC Gateway allows users of a supported mobile device to be up to 30 m
(100 ft, line of sight) away indoors if there are no obstacles. A typical indoor range in an area with obstacles is 15
m (50 ft). Power is supplied through a supplied external power supply.
You can mount the WNC Gateway directly to a wall or DIN rail using the supplied WNC Gateway mounting bracket.
