iSMA-B-MAC36NL-050
About the product
The iSMA-B-MAC36NL is a Niagara controller equipped with 36 onboard IO, a 50-point license, and a single RS485 port. If additional points are required, you have the option to upgrade in 50-point increments.
The MAC (Master Application Controller) incorporates various types of built-in I/O and operates within the Niagara Framework environment. It boasts a specific local I/O configuration of 16x UI, 8x AO, 4x DI, and 8x DO, making it adaptable to a multitude of applications. The controller provides comprehensive features including control, data logging, alarming, scheduling, integration, and visualization.
For IP connectivity, two Fast Ethernet ports are available, operating independently. Additionally, the built-in RS485 port allows expansion by connecting MINI or MIX series I/O modules or integrating with other subsystems. The iSMA-B-MAC36NL offers a rich graphical interface accessible via a standard web browser or an external display connected to the built-in HDMI and USB ports, complete with touch-screen support.
Moreover, two other hardware versions of the controller are available, featuring a second RS485 port and M-Bus interface.

Product Information
What is the default IP of the device?
What Niagara version is needed to connect to this controller?
What should I do if I need to use Niagara 4.4.92.2?
%HOMEPATH%\Niagara4.4\sw\inbox folder and use commisioning wizard, or use Platform‚ÜíDistribution File Installer, choose file and install.
What should I do if I need to use Niagara 4.6, 4.7 or 4.8?
Please download thelatest update filesHERE, into the zipfile, which contains the DIST files for versions 4.6, 4.7 and 4.8. You will find a file named “iSMA_MAC36_files_installer_v1.0.1152.bat”; this will copy for you all the DIST files into the relevant folders. After this procedure, you must restart the Workplace and commission your MAC36NL with the 4.6, 4.7 or 4.8 version.
If you need to upgrade to 4.8andthe controller is already running on lower versions (4.4, 4.6or 4.7) the first step you will need to do is to clean the controller by installing the CleanDist file using the DistributionFileInstaller from the controller's platform and after that commission the MAC36NL controller with the 4.8.
What improvements for the MAC36NL with Niagara 4.6 and 4.7?
With the release of N4.6 and N4.7 for the MAC36NL you have some new features:
- BACnet MSTP -HDMI-Data Recovery Service -Web Service Port Fix
Please see read the Release Notes.
