PRODUCT DATA
Comfort Controller 6400

The Comfort Controller 6400 (part number
CEPL130201) is a microcontroller-based module that
provides general purpose HVAC control and monitoring
capability in a standalone or network environment using
closed-loop, direct digital control. The 6400 gives the
Carrier Comfort Network (CCN) the capability to control
and communicate with non-Carrier equipment and
Carrier HVAC equipment not equipped with Product
Integrated Controls (PICs).
You can connect 16 field points (8 inputs and 8 outputs)
to the 6400. To connect additional field points, add
optional input/output modules (8 inputs and 8 outputs
per I/O module) to the 6400. By using multiple I/O
modules, you can connect up to 48 additional points,
giving you the capability to control and/or monitor a total
of up to 64 field points. The appropriate number of I/O
modules are selected for each control situation and
simply installed along with the 6400 in your fieldselected NEMA-1 enclosure. This modular concept
contributes to overall versatility and ease of installation.
The Comfort Controller 6400 includes a diverse library
of performance-proven control routines, written in plain
English, using simple "fill-in-the blanks" format for fast,
easy programming. Additionally, for custom applications, Carrier's BEST++ software provides custom programming capabilities to work independently, or in
conjunction with the pre-engineered control routines.

Comfort Controller 6400-I/O

The Comfort Controller 6400-I/O (part number
CEPL130203) is used with the Comfort Controller 6400
to expand the field point capacity from 16 points (8
inputs and 8 outputs) up to a total of 64 points.
Each 6400-I/O can be configured to use all 16 points (8
inputs and 8 outputs) or only 8 outputs or only 8 inputs.
This provides the ultimate flexibility in usage of field
points to meet the specific needs of each application.
Determine the number of 6400-I/O required for your
particular application. Then simply install the modules
along with the 6400 in your field-selected NEMA-1
enclosure.
To determine the number of 6400-I/O required by the
particular application, first decide how many field points
are required. Then order and install the 6400-I/O(s)
along with the 6400 in your field-selected enclosure.
This modularity contributes to overall versatility.
FEATURES
Monitors up to 16 field points.
Two LEDs, conveniently located at the top of the
module, indicate processor status (red) and module
communication status (green).
Local connection for LID.
Ability to disable all inputs or all outputs by simply
flipping a switch.
