Figure 2: Mixed Air Single Path Schematic Control Strategy The first question in the mixed air single path question/answer path (Figure 50) asks you to select the control strategy. The available strategies are: Room Control Room Control of Cooling, Room Reset of Heating Supply Air Reset from Zone Temperature (Mixed Air) Return Air Control Constant Discharge Air Temperature Supply Air Reset from Return Temerature
The following provides information on each of the six available strategies.
Room Control The Room Control strategy uses the zone temperature to directly control each controlled device (Figure 3). As the zone temperature decreases into the heating proportional band, the system commands the preheat (if selected and sequenced) and heating devices in sequence. As the zone temperature increases above the zone cooling setpoint, the system controls the outdoor air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling device in sequence. As the zone temperature travels through the various proportional bands, the output to the associated controlled device ranges from 0 to 100%. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control.

Room Control of Cooling, Room Reset of Heating This control strategy uses the zone temperature to reset a discharge air heating setpoint and directly control the cooling device (Figure 4). As the zone temperature increases above the zone cooling setpoint, the system controls the outdoor air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling device in sequence. As the zone temperature travels through the proportional band, the output to the associated controlled device ranges from 0 to 100%. The controller calculates a discharge heating setpoint based on the input heating reset schedule. The discharge heating low limit establishes a calculated discharge setpoint when the zone temperature first enters the zone heating proportional band. The system adds the discharge heating reset band to this low limit. This value is the number of degrees the discharge setpoint changes as the zone temperature decreases through the zone heating proportional band. The discharge sensor then controls and sequences the preheat (if selected and sequenced) and heating device as the discharge temperature decreases below the calculated discharge setpoint. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control. The heating device will remain active when cooling is locked out based on the outside air temperature. This maintains a discharge heating low limit even when the zone temperature is in the cooling proportional band.

Supply Air Reset from Zone Temperature (Mixed Air) The supply air reset from zone temperature strategy resets the discharge air setpoint for heating and cooling (Figure 5). The zone proportional band is divided by two and each half is active above and below the zone setpoint. As the zone temperature varies away from the zone setpoint within the zone proportional band, it calculates the actual discharge setpoint based on a discharge low limit and discharge reset band. This strategy uses a discharge sensor to control heating and cooling around the actual discharge setpoint. It controls and sequences the preheat (if selected and sequenced) and heating devices as the discharge temperature decreases below the actual discharge setpoint minus the heating deadband. The discharge sensor also controls the outside air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling device as the discharge air temperature increases above the actual discharge setpoint plus the cooling deadband. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control.

Return Air Control The return air control strategy uses the return air temperature to directly control each controlled device (Figure 6). This strategy commands the preheat (if selected and sequenced) and heating devices in sequence as the return air temperature decreases below the return setpoint minus a heating deadband. As the return temperature increases above the return air setpoint, the return air control strategy controls the outdoor air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling devices in sequence. As the return air temperature varies through the heating and cooling proportional bands, the output to the controlled device ranges between 0 to 100%. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control.

As the discharge temperature increases above the discharge air setpoint, the system controls the outdoor air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling devices in sequence.

Supply Air Reset from Return Temperature The supply air reset from return temperature strategy resets the discharge air setpoint for heating and cooling (Figure 8). As the return temperature varies below the return high limit and within the return reset band, it calculates a discharge setpoint based on a discharge low limit and discharge reset band. The return proportional band is divided and active above and below the return setpoint. The discharge low limit establishes the discharge setpoint when the return temperature is at the warmest end of the return proportional band. The value of the discharge reset band is the number of degrees added to the discharge low limit as the return temperature decreases through the return proportional band. This strategy uses a discharge sensor to control heating and cooling around the calculated discharge setpoint. It controls and sequences the preheat (if selected and sequenced) and heating devices as the discharge temperature decreases below the calculated discharge setpoint minus the heating deadband. The discharge sensor also controls the outside air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling device as the discharge air temperature increases above the calculated discharge setpoint. As discharge temperature varies through the heating and cooling proportional bands, the outputs to the controlled devices modulate between 0 to 100%. Integration may be added to these control loops to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control. Economizer Command may include resetting the minimum position see Figure 8, based on indoor air quality.

Figure 9: 100% Outside Air Single Path Schematic Question/Answer Path The questions and answers for 100% Outside Air Single Path (OASP) are identical to those for Mixed Air Single Path (MASP), with a few exceptions: 100% OASP provides exhaust air temperature control, instead of return air control as in MASP. Supply air reset from exhaust temperature is not available for 100% OA units, as supply air reset from return temperature was available for MASP units. The supply air reset from zone temperature is unique for 100% OA. There is no economizer section for 100% OA control, so when finished with this section, see the Heat Recovery for 100% Outside Air Applications section.
19
Supply Air Reset from Zone Temperature (100% OA Single Path) The supply air reset from zone temperature strategy resets the discharge air setpoint for heating and cooling (Figure 10). As the zone temperature rises into the zone cooling proportional band, it calculates a discharge setpoint based on a discharge cooling low limit and discharge cooling reset band. When the zone temperature drops below the zone setpoint, minus the zone heating deadband and into the zone heating proportional band, a discharge setpoint is calculated based on a discharge heating low limit and discharge heating reset band. This strategy uses a discharge sensor to control heating and cooling around the calculated discharge setpoint. It controls and sequences the preheat (if selected and sequenced) and heating devices as the discharge temperature decreases below the actual discharge setpoint minus the discharge heating deadband. The discharge sensor also controls the mechanical cooling device as the discharge air temperature increases above the actual discharge setpoint. As discharge temperature varies through the heating and cooling proportional bands, the output to the controlled devices modulate between 0 to 100%. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control.

The available strategies are: Multizone Hot/Cold Deck Reset Dual Duct Hot/Cold Deck Reset Multizone Zone Control Dual Duct Zone Control
The following provides information on each of the four available strategies. Multizone Hot/Cold Deck Reset or Dual Duct Hot/Cold Deck Reset This control strategy controls typical multizone or dual duct type air handlers (Figure 12). It uses the temperature from the warmest and coldest zone, and calculates a cold deck and hot deck setpoint through a cold and hot deck reset schedule respectively. The cold deck setpoint and the cold deck discharge temperature controls the outdoor air damper (if sequenced with cooling) and mechanical cooling device in sequence. The hot deck setpoint and the hot deck temperature control the heating device. When a preheat device is selected, it will be controlled as a Separate Mixed Air Closed Loop. It is recommended that the preheat setpoint be a value lower than the cold deck low limit.

Figure 12: Multizone Hot/Cold Deck Reset or Dual Duct Hot/Cold Deck Reset Reset Schedule The four input parameters of each reset schedule determine the reset schedule for the cold and hot deck. The hot zone high limit, hot zone reset band, cold deck low limit, and cold deck reset band establish the cold deck reset schedule. The system uses the warmest zone temperature to calculate the cold deck setpoint through this reset schedule. The cold zone high limit, cold zone reset band, hot deck low limit and hot deck reset band establish the hot deck reset schedule. The system uses the coldest zone temperature to calculate the hot deck setpoint through this reset schedule. The coolest and warmest zone temperatures are individual analog inputs. Zones that are not the warmest or coolest control their zone damper through separate control loops outside of this sequence. Cold Deck Control If the system is mixed air dual path, the outdoor air damper and mechanical cooling device are in sequence. As the cold deck temperature rises above the calculated cold deck setpoint and enters the economizer proportional band, the economizer dampers will modulate from minimum position to 100% open (if economizer is enabled). The cold deck cooling deadband is added to the cold deck setpoint and establishes the cold deck temperature value at which the mechanical cooling proportional band begins. An alternate cooling deadband is used when Econ mode is not available. As the cold deck temperature rises through the cold deck proportional band, the mechanical cooling device will modulate from 0 to 100% open. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control.
22
The system controls the outdoor air dampers from minimum position during the Occupied mode and from 0% during the Unoccupied mode. It is possible to eliminate the operation of the outdoor air damper in Unoccupied mode by setting the unoccupied economizer proportional band equal to zero. Hot Deck Control The system controls the hot deck heating device when the hot deck temperature is below the calculated hot deck setpoint. As the temperature enters the heating proportional band, the output to the controlled device will modulate from 0 to 100% open. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control. Zone Mixing Damper Control For satisfying the load in the space, the system requires zones that are not the warmest or coldest to mix the hot and cold deck air streams. This means that a separate closed loop must exist outside the AHU controller to control each of the zone dampers. Individual zone temperature control may be a pneumatic loop with a T-4002 thermostat controlling the zone damper. The system brings the multiple thermostats into a C-2220 high/low signal selector that selects the zones with the greatest heating and cooling demands. The system brings these signals out of the C-2220 and into two FM-IAP101-0s. The FM-IAP101-0s convert the high and low pneumatic signals into 4 to 20 mA signals that connect into the AHU controller. HVAC PRO can scale this signal internally to the sensitivity range of the T-4002 thermostat.* * Refer to the Appendix D: Multizone Hot and Cold Deck Reset Application Note in the Appendix section of the HVAC PRO Users Manual, which explains how to set up the analog inputs for the warmest and coolest zones. Typically, on digitally controlled zones, a supervisory system like Metasys Companion/Facilitator or Metasys Network Control Module (NCM) is applied to select the warmest and coolest zones from the zone controllers, and then globally share this data with the AHU.
23
Multizone Zone Control or Dual Duct Zone Control This control strategy takes the warmest and coldest zone inputs and directly controls the cold and hot deck respectively (Figure 13). It is appropriate for direct zone control of dual duct and multizone systems.

Figure 13: Zone Control Warmest Zone Control The system controls the outdoor air damper (if selected and sequenced) and mechanical cooling device in sequence. As the warmest zone temperature rises above the calculated warmest zone setpoint and enters the economizer proportional band, the economizer dampers will modulate from minimum position to 100% open (if Econ is enabled). The warmest zone cooling deadband is added to the warmest zone setpoint and establishes the warmest zone temperature value at which the mechanical cooling proportional band begins. An alternate cooling deadband is used when Econ mode is not available. As the warmest zone temperature rises through the warmest zone proportional band, the mechanical cooling device will modulate from 0 to 100% open. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control. The system controls the outdoor air dampers from minimum position during the Occupied mode and from 0% during the Unoccupied mode. It is possible to eliminate the operation of the outdoor air damper by setting the unoccupied economizer proportional band equal to zero. Coolest Zone Control The system controls the heating device below the calculated coolest zone setpoint. As the coolest zone temperature decreases below the calculated coolest zone setpoint and enters the heating proportional band, the output to the controlled device will modulate from 0 to 100% open. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control.

Zone Mixing Damper Control For satisfying the load in the space, the system requires zones that are not the warmest or coldest to mix the hot and cold deck air streams. This means that a separate closed loop must exist outside the AHU controller to control each of the zone dampers.

Heat Recovery for 100% Outside Air Applications

Heat Recovery Type The first question in the heat recovery for 100% outside air applications question/answer path (Figure 54) asks you to select the heat recovery type. The available types are: 2-position Output from Analog Input Sensor Run Around Glycol Loop
The following provides information on each of the available types. 2-Position Output from Analog Input Sensor When the outdoor or discharge air temperature (user selectable via question) decreases below the heat recovery setpoint, a maintained binary output energizes, causing the 2-position heat recovery device (Figure 14) to be on or open. When the temperature increases to a value that is equal to the heat recovery setpoint plus the heat recovery differential, the controller commands the heat recovery device off or closed. If the heat recovery control sensor becomes unreliable, the command to the heat recovery device is off or closed. This control loop must have proven airflow. Whenever the system loses airflow or when the Shutdown mode is on, the system commands the heat recovery device off or closed.

Unless free cooling from outside air is available year around, this selection is usually not valid (that is, the outdoor air dampers will open to provide cooling even when the outdoor air has a high heat content).

Software (N2) Command A binary data point is generated for a Facility Management System (FMS) to command (Figure 18). One controller can determine economizer changeover logic and report it to the FMS which can then distribute the information to the other controllers on the network through their binary data points. When economizer is commanded on, free cooling is available.

Outdoor air temperature and humidity are used for calculating outdoor air enthalpy which is then compared to the return air enthalpy. When the outdoor air enthalpy exceeds the return air enthalpy, or the outdoor air temperature exceeds the dry bulb default, economizer status is off. When the outdoor air enthalpy is less than the return air enthalpy minus the enthalpy differential switchover and the outdoor air temperature is less than the dry bulb default minus a two degree differential, economizer status is on.

The discharge air or zone temperature controls this loop depending on your selection. When the outdoor air temperature is below the outdoor air face and bypass switchover setpoint, the controller commands the preheat valve to 100% open, while it modulates the face and bypass damper. As the control temperature falls through the preheat proportional band, the damper shall modulate from bypass (0%) to face (100%). When the outdoor air temperature rises above the outdoor air face and bypass switchover setpoint plus the outdoor temperature face/bypass differential setpoint, the controller commands the face damper to 100% face and modulates the preheat valve to obtain the control setpoint.

Figure 27: Staged Sequencer - Number of Stages The minimum on/off and interstage on/off timers can be adjusted once for all stages or for each individual stage. Once it is on, the minimum on timer keeps a stage energized for a minimum time period. Once it is off, the minimum off timer does not allow a stage to be re-energized for a minimum time period. The interstage delay on and off timers prevent the next stage from energizing or de-energizing until the interstage timer has expired. The interstage on timer for Stage 1 controls the elapsed time before Stage 2 may be turned on. The interstage timer for Stage 2 must elapse before Stage 3 may be turned on, and so on. The reverse is true for the interstage off timers. The interstage on of the last stage has no effect, and the interstage off of the first stage has no effect.
36
Use the cycles per hour adjustment to restrict the unit from over cycling by providing a minimum time between starts. The cycle per hour feature divides a one hour period into equal cycle intervals. A value of six divides a one hour period into six, 10-minute intervals. Once a stage is commanded on, ten minutes must elapse before another on command is issued. Once a stage is turned off, it cannot be turned on again until the cycle per hour interval and minimum off timer are satisfied. The starting point of the first stage can be adjusted to any value that is 5% or greater and less than the starting point of the second stage. The command and starting point of each stage is based on the 0 to 100% command into the sequencer, with the proportional division of the number of stages over a 0 to 100% range. When you select the first stage to start at 0%, the starting point of the first stage defaults to the normal proportional division (that is, 3 stages would start at 33, 67, and 100% commands). You can override the preheat stages by commanding the pseudo-analog output for preheat. This ensures a 0 to 100% override value is used, keeping the timers inside the sequencing logic active. Individual binary outputs are not eligible to be overridden when part of a sequencer. IMPORTANT: Staged outputs remain on for their defined minimum on time, regardless of their commanded state. When all stages must be turned off without delay, adjust the interstage off time to 0. The minimum on timer can hold a stage on even though the Shutdown mode or airflow interlock is active. Keep minimum on timers at the smallest possible value or 0. AHU controllers with C06 firmware or later and UNT (Unitary) controllers with B00 firmware or later will utilize an Instant Off feature. This feature will force all staged outputs off on loss of airflow or shutdown regardless of timer conditions.

Figure 33: 2-Position Valve with Face and Bypass Position Adjust Incremental The controller uses two binary outputs to position the control valve. The stroke time you specify determines the timing of these binary outputs. The controller uses the zone temperature to determine the required position of the valve. Then it energizes the appropriate output for a percent of full stroke to achieve the required valve position.
41
As the zone temperature drops below the heating setpoint, the controller energizes the appropriate output to open the valve. As the zone temperature increases, the controller energizes the other output to close the valve. When the temperature is within the deadband of the controller, neither output is energized and the valve stays in its current position. As the required position drops below the current position, the controller energizes the appropriate output to close the valve. As the required position increases, the controller energizes the other output to open the valve. When the change from the current position to the calculated new position is within the controllers deadband, neither output is energized, leaving the valve in its current position. The controller uses overdrive logic to ensure the position of the valve. When the output reaches 99%, it will be driven for 1.5 times the stroke time, causing the valve to reach its 100% position. Sequencer - Number of Stages You can adjust the minimum on/off and interstage on/off timers once for all stages or for each individual stage. Once it is turned on, the minimum on timer keeps a stage energized for the input time period. The minimum off timer does not allow a stage to be re-energized for a time period once it is turned off. The interstage delay on and off timers prevent the next stage from energizing or de-energizing until the interstage timer has expired. The interstage on timer for Stage 1 controls the elapsed time before Stage 2 may be turned on. The interstage timer for Stage 2 must elapse before Stage 3 may be turned on, and so on.

The starting point of the first stage can be adjusted to any value that is 5% or greater and less than the starting point of the second stage. When you answer this question 0%, the stages are automatically proportioned over the heating proportional band. The command and starting point of each stage is based on the 0 to 100% command into the sequencer, with the proportional division of the number of stages over a 0 to 100% range. When you select the first stage to start at 0%, the starting point of the first stage defaults to the normal proportional division (i.e., 3 stages would start at 33, 67, and 100% commands).

High Signal Selection w/Cooling Command This control strategy selects the highest signal between the sensible cooling command and the dehumidification command, then outputs the selected value to the cooling device (Figure 38). The cooling command originates from the main temperature control sequence of operation. When the relative humidity increases above the humidity setpoint and into the dehumidification proportional band, a dehumidification command is determined.

Humidification
Description A humidity high limit device is recommended with any humidification strategy. The device should be located in the supply duct, at least eight feet downstream of the humidifier. A device such as the HLC-1000 can be used to limit the electronic signal to the humidifier from the controllers analog output when a high limit setpoint is reached. Sequencer - Number of Stages The minimum on/off and interstage on/off timers can be adjusted once for all stages or for each individual stage. Once turned on, the minimum on timer keeps a stage energized for the input time period. Once turned off, the minimum off timer does not allow a stage to re-energize for the input time period. The interstage delay on and off timers prevent the next stage from energizing or de-energizing until the interstage timer has expired. The interstage on timer for Stage 1 controls the elapsed time before Stage 2 may be turned on. The interstage timer for Stage 2 must elapse before Stage 3 may be turned on, and so on. The reverse is true for the interstage off timers. The interstage on of the last stage has no effect, and the interstage off of the first stage has no effect. Use the cycles per hour adjustment to restrict the unit from over cycling by providing a minimum time between starts. The cycle per hour feature divides a one hour period into equal cycle intervals. A value of six divides a one hour period into six 10-minute intervals. Once a stage is turned on, ten minutes must elapse before another on command can be issued. Once a stage is turned off, it cannot be turned on again until the cycle per hour interval and minimum off timer is satisfied. The command and starting point of each stage is based on the 0 to 100% command into the sequencer, with the proportional division of the number of stages over a 0 to 100% range (i.e., 3 stages would start at 33, 67, and 100% commands). You can override the humidity stages by commanding the pseudo-analog output for humidity. This ensures a 0 to 100% override value is used, keeping the timers inside the sequencing logic active. Individual binary outputs are not eligible to be overridden when part of a sequencer. IMPORTANT: Staged outputs remain on for their defined minimum on time, regardless of their commanded state.
50
When all stages must be turned off without delay, adjust the interstage off time to 0. The minimum on timer can hold a stage on even though the Shutdown mode or airflow interlock is active. Keep minimum on timers at the smallest possible value or 0. AHU controllers with C06 firmware or later and UNT controllers with B00 firmware or later will utilize an Instant Off feature. This feature will force all staged outputs off on loss of airflow or shutdown regardless of timer conditions.

Modes of Operation
Unoccupied Control Strategy Note: When occupied is on, the controller assumes the occupied setpoints and operates as normal.
The first question in the modes of operation question/answer path (Figure 73) asks you to select the control strategy. The available strategies are: Intermittent Night Operation from Zone Sensor Setup/Setback of Htg/Clg Setpts in Main Seq Operation from Zone (Only in Room Control Strategy)
The following provides information on each of the available strategies. Intermittent Night Operation from Zone Sensor The intermittent night operation selection is a valid option for all the AHU control strategies including: Room Control Return Air Control Constant Discharge Air Control Supply Air Reset from Return/Exhaust Room Control of Cooling/Room Reset of Heating Supply Air Reset from Zone
This selection requires a zone sensor which will only be used for night operation. When the controller is in the Unoccupied mode and the zone temperature is above the night cooling or below the night heating setpoint, the unit will start (Figure 40).

When the constant discharge air control strategy is selected, user adjustable unoccupied discharge heating and cooling setpoints are used. When the system commands the fan on due to zone temperature, the appropriate discharge temperature is delivered to the zone. The controller commands the fan system off when the zone temperature increases above the night heating setpoint plus the night heating differential, or below the night cooling setpoint minus the night cooling differential. If the mixed air dampers are sequenced with cooling, you may want to prevent free cooling in the Unoccupied mode by setting the unoccupied economizer proportional band to 0. When the economizer status is not on, the mechanical cooling algorithm operates with the alternate cooling deadband (default = 0). This moves the starting point of mechanical cooling to the control setpoint.

The controller adds the setup value to the zone cooling setpoint and subtracts the setback value from the zone or heating setpoint. The controller does not use the heating deadband when calculating the setback value. The setback value replaces the heating deadband. The unit fans will start when the preheat (if selected and sequenced), heating, economizer (if selected and sequenced) or cooling proportional command reaches 10% and the unit will stop when the commands have decreased to 1%. Once the unit fan starts and airflow status is on, the command is passed through to the appropriate heating or cooling device. It is likely that once the unit starts in the Setup/Setback mode, it will continue to run for the rest of the unoccupied period while maintaining the setup or setback setpoint. See Figures 42 through 44.

Figure 44: Setup and Setback: Supply and Return Fan Logic If the mixed air dampers are sequenced with cooling, you may want to prevent free cooling in the Unoccupied mode by setting the unoccupied economizer proportional band to 0. When the economizer status is not on, the mechanical cooling algorithm operates with the alternate cooling deadband (default = 0). This moves the starting point of mechanical cooling to the control setpoint value plus the setup value. Shutdown Mode The default of the Shutdown mode (Figure 45) is off. When shutdown is enabled, all outputs to fans are turned off, outside air dampers are closed, and the humidity devices are shutdown. Preheat, heating, and cooling outputs will be shutdown to 0% command if the user specified they be affected by shutdown. Otherwise, they will go to their loss of airflow position. In Shutdown mode, all integration timers are set to 0, so no windup occurs when the system is put back into control.

Figure 45: Shutdown Mode Warmup/Cooldown Mode The Warmup/Cooldown mode is only available if an unoccupied strategy is selected and may only operate in the Unoccupied mode. When commanded on, the Warmup/Cooldown mode stops the unoccupied temperature control strategy selected and starts the fan system if it is not running. It then controls to the temperature setpoints selected for occupied operation. On mixed air systems, if free cooling is available, the mixed air dampers shall modulate from 0 to 100% open, ignoring the minimum outside air position. As the control temperature approaches the control setpoint, the system modulates or stages the controlled devices (preheat, heating, cooling). When the controller switches into Occupied mode, warmup/cooldown ends. This allows the minimum outdoor air dampers to open. Even though Warmup mode ends, it remains on until commanded off. When the Occupied mode is turned off, but the warmup/cooldown is left on, Warmup/Cooldown mode will operate until commanded off. If you selected the constant discharge air control strategy, an unoccupied discharge air setpoint is used until the zone temperature achieves the warmup/cooldown zone setpoint. If the zone temperature is below the warmup/cooldown zone setpoint, the unoccupied heating discharge air setpoint shall be used. If the zone temperature is above the warmup/cooldown zone setpoint, the unoccupied cooling discharge air setpoint shall be used. Once the zone temperature reaches the warmup/cooldown zone setpoint, the discharge air will control to the (occupied) discharge air setpoint. The warmup/cooldown zone differential is used to prevent switching back to the unoccupied discharge air setpoints once the warmup/cooldown zone setpoint is achieved.
57
Airflow Interlock and Alarm An airflow switch is incorporated into the controller operation. A two minute delay is in effect after a command to start the fan is sent, allowing time to prove airflow. Airflow must be proven in order to operate the economizer output. If loss of airflow is detected for more than 15 seconds, the preheat, heating, and cooling outputs will be commanded to the user selected loss of airflow output and a fan alarm indication will be given. If you select a return fan, return airflow must be proven for normal operation. In the Fan System Control section, a Fan Commanded Off Upon Loss of Air Flow question is asked. If you answer no, a loss of airflow will not shut down the fan system. Once airflow is in alarm, the airflow status must toggle from off to on to clear the alarm. Default Schedule When you initiate Occupied mode and shutdown through the software (N2) command only, you can input a default occupied and shutdown start/stop time schedule. This schedule is in effect whenever the N2 Bus is offline longer than ten minutes. The time clock that operates inside the AHU controller is not battery backed. It resets to 00:00 whenever you apply power to the controller or the controller goes through a reset condition, such as when downloaded.

Default Occupied Stop
Figure 46: Default Schedule The only way to set the controllers time clock to any time other than 00:00 is through the NCM or Companion/Facilitator via the N2 Bus, or a Zone Terminal (ZT) configured with a weekly schedule for that controller. Whenever you connect a laptop to the Zone Bus (but not a ZT), the controller enters the Service mode. The Service mode disconnects the AHU controller from the N2 Bus. The Occupied mode can be overridden from the Commissioning program of HVAC PRO when you connect the laptop to the Zone Bus (or N2 Bus).

Fan System
Control Type The first question in the fan system control question/answer path (Figure 75) asks you to select the fan system control type. The available types are: Single Supply Fan with Static Press. Cntl. Single Sup/Ret Vol Match w/Static Pres Cntl Single Supply, Low/High Speed Control Constant Volume
The following provides information on each of the available types. Single Supply Fan with Static Press. Cntl. Supply fan output is the trigger for static pressure control. Supply fan status enables the integration term. If the ramp control is not used, the proportional output must be sufficient to make the fan status. This control strategy allows the control of variable frequency/speed drives, inlet vanes or discharge dampers that control static pressure within the air handling system. The static pressure setpoint is in inches of Water Gauge (WG) or Pascals for metric units. The static pressure proportional band, integration value, and derivative weight determine the gain of the control loop. An integration value is always recommended to eliminate the proportional offset in this control loop, as precise static pressure control is required in most cases. Usually derivative control action is not necessary, and the derivative weight should be input as 0. The system adds the static pressure offset value to the PID control calculation and usually remains at 0. The static pressure deadband value establishes a range above and below the static pressure setpoint where the error is considered 0. The deadband is applied above and below the static pressure setpoint. If the static sensor becomes unreliable, the command to the static pressure control device equals 0%.

Figure 48: Single Supply and Return Fan, Volume Matching, without Static Ramp The controller uses the CFM differential as the setpoint, and calculates the controlled variable or feedback, by subtracting the return CFM from the supply CFM. The return volume proportional band integration value and derivative weight determines the gain of the return fan control loop. An integration value is always recommended to eliminate the proportional offset in this control loop, as precise volume control is required in most cases. Usually, derivative control action is not necessary and the derivative weight should be input as 0. If the return fan is started by means other than the AHU, supply fan status enables the return fan control integration. If the AHU supply fan is ramped on startup (supply or return started first), an active supply fan ramp or return fan status enables the return fan control integration. If the AHU starts the return fan first and there is no ramp of the supply fan on startup, the return fan integration is enabled for two minutes after the return fan command is on to allow for fan status to make. Return fan command and return fan not in alarm enables the return fan control integration. If the supply fan or return fan CFM calculation is unreliable, the output to the return fan equals 0%.

Single Supply, Low/High Speed Control This strategy controls a two speed fan motor. Upon startup, the low speed fan energizes. After a five minute delay the controller analyzes the velocity pressure of the supply air and allows the high speed circuit to energize. This strategy always starts the low speed fan first when a supply fan command is received.

Figure 49: Single Supply Fan; Low/High Speed Control If the velocity pressure is above the high speed velocity pressure setpoint, the controller commands the fan off, for the time period entered for coast time. After this timer expires, the high speed fan circuit energizes. When the velocity pressure decreases below the high speed velocity pressure setpoint minus the velocity pressure differential, the fan de-energizes again for a period equal to the coast time. When this timer expires, the low speed circuit fan energizes. Constant Volume The fans start in the Occupied mode, Warmup mode, Vent or Purge mode, intermittent night operation, or setup/setback operation.

Using an AHU Application in a UNT Controller

With HVAC PRO Release 5.10 or later, it is possible to select a UNT as a target device for an AHU application. Valid target devices include all UNT1nn-n controllers. With the 8 K UNTs, the question is not whether the configuration will fit in the controller, but if there are enough hardware points on the UNT for the configuration. Most likely, you will run out of Analog Output (AO) points first. If this is the case, you can use a Zone Bus actuator like the M100 motor actuator for the extra AOs. Table 1: Default Zone Bus Addresses for Analog Outputs
Output
Damper Command Preheat Valve Heating Valve Cooling Valve Humid Valve Supply Fan Cntl Return Fan Cntl
Address
20 21 22 23 24 25 26
The Zone Bus addresses listed in Table 1 are based on the default locations of analog outputs assigned by HVAC PRO during the Question and Answer session. If you move the analog output location within an HVAC PRO configuration, HVAC PRO will recalculate the Zone Bus address using the equation: ZB Address = AO Number + 19. Default Point Types The AHU application Question and Answer session assigns point type defaults that are compatible with AHU controller hardware, but may not be compatible with UNT controller hardware. AHU controllers support the Current type for analog input sensors and analog output points. Since the Current type is not supported by the UNT controller hardware, any analog input sensor or analog output point configured as Current must be changed before targeting the application to a UNT controller. Voltage type is supported.
63
Instant Off Feature When using staged outputs in the UNT, the Binary Output (BO) Instant Off feature operates properly. So if the stages are on, and shutdown is turned on or airflow status is open, the staged outputs will ignore the minimum on timers and go off immediately. The Instant Off feature is also available on AHU controllers with firmware Revision C06 or later. Momentary Start/Stop Momentary start/stop points will operate properly on the UNT controller when loaded with an AHU configuration. Accumulator Point The accumulator point (BI-4) on the UNT controller operates as usual, even when the UNT controller is loaded with an AHU configuration. Binary Parameters The locations of certain binary parameters loaded by the AHU application Question and Answer session are not supported by UNT1nn-0 devices. All UNT1nn-0 devices are removed from the Target Device Selection if you select anything but Hardware BI Point or Hardware AI Point to initiate any modes, as shown in Table 2. Table 2: Mode/Command

Separate Mixed Air Closed Loop
Description
This strategy provides a separate control loop for the outdoor air dampers based on the mixed air sensor. A temperature setpoint is selected and maintained when free cooling is available and economizer is on. The direct acting output shall open the outside air dampers from minimum position to 100% as the mixed air temperature rises through the proportional band. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control. This strategy allows the sequencing of the outside air dampers with the mechanical cooling device when free cooling is available and economizer is on. The direct acting output shall open the outside air dampers from minimum position to 100% as the controlled temperature rises through the economizer proportional band. The economizer proportional band must not exceed the sum of the cooling deadband and the cooling proportional band. If this is not done, the economizer output will stop increasing when the cooling output reaches 100%. When the Economizer mode is off (free cooling not available), an alternate cooling deadband is used to shift the cooling proportional band left towards the control setpoint. This causes mechanical cooling to modulate or energize at a temperature closer to the control setpoint in comparison to the normal cooling deadband when free cooling is available. The cooling integration term for the mechanical cooling device is also used by the economizer dampers.

The mixed air low limit control will override the minimum position setting if the mixed temperature continues to drop below setpoint which can occur with low ambient conditions in the outdoor air. If you desire a minimum position regardless of the mixed air low limit logic (for example, you are not in danger of freezing mechanical equipment), use a damper offset which will not allow the damper to go below this value during Occupied mode.

Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. An input from an air quality sensor resets the minimum position of the outdoor air damper to an increased value (Figure 57). The controller does this through the inputs of indoor air quality low limit and indoor air quality reset band. These inputs adjust the minimum position setpoint from minimum position through the minimum position reset band. The indoor air quality defaults are in reference to a carbon dioxide sensor that indicates Parts Per Million (PPM). The minimum position reset schedule is in percent position or CFM, depending upon the type of minimum damper strategy selected. High carbon dioxide is usually a good indication that more outside air is required. However, low carbon dioxide is not always a good indication of contaminant free air.

Option
2-Position
Description
The 2-position strategy energizes a binary output whenever the controller switches into the Occupied mode of operation (Figure 58). During the Unoccupied or Shutdown mode, the binary output for 2-position control is off. During the Vent or Purge mode, the controller energizes the binary output (damper) even if the controller is in the Unoccupied mode. The minimum volume closed loop strategy allows control to a minimum air volume setpoint (CFM) via conventional PI control (Figure 59). As the volume (CFM) of air through an airflow measuring station decreases below the minimum volume setpoint and into the CFM proportional band, the minimum damper is modulated open. The CFM deadband suspends any change in the control output when the actual CFM is within the this deadband region. The full input deadband value is in effect on the positive and negative side of the CFM setpoint. Integration may be added to this control loop to eliminate the inherent offset associated with proportional only control. The minimum duct area input is the square foot area of the airflow measuring station (provided by device manufacturer). The area is required by the controller to calculate the CFM. The CFM offset, is a value in percent that the controller adds to the command after it performs the proportional and integration control calculation.

Pitot Tube
Description
This selection is required when the controller needs to calculate the square root of the velocity pressure reading. The area of the face of the airflow station is required, and a constant is required to extract any amplification of the velocity pressure that is present in the design of the Pitot tube traverse. The formula for the CFM calculation of the Pitot tube method is:
CFM = A 4005 Pv K
Where: Pv = velocity pressure (in. WG) K = constant (provided by the manufacturer) A = area of the airflow station (sq ft) Scaled InputFlow Station (Thermistor) This selection is intended for a packaged airflow station having a linear output ranged in velocity (FPM) or volume (CFM). In cases where the airflow station outputs a linear CFM signal, adjust the value for the area of the airflow measuring station to 1.0. CFM = (V)(A) Where: V = velocity (ft/min) A = area of the airflow station (sq ft)

Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. The Vent and Purge modes open the outdoor air damper to 100% when the controller commands it to on. The difference between the two modes is purge shuts off all mechanical heating, cooling, and humidification while vent allows all heating, cooling, and humidification to remain in control. If the controller commands Vent and Purge modes on simultaneously, Vent mode takes priority. Both modes are active during Occupied or Unoccupied modes of operation but are not effective during the Shutdown mode. The outdoor air dampers will not open until the supply airflow status is on.

Description
When configured as a closed loop, the preheat setpoint with separate sensor, the preheat setpoint, proportional band, integration value, offset, and deadband control the action of the preheat device. When configured as sequenced with heating and cooling, the preheat proportional band allows the preheat device to be controlled as the control temperature decreases below the control setpoint. The integration term is shared with the heating device. This option is not available on Dual Path units.

Option
No Yes
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. This strategy allows an analog output to be commanded from 0 to 100% between each stage of preheat. The analog command increases from 0 to 100% as the sequencer command from the control strategy increases from 0 to the starting point of the first stage. When you select Vernier control, the starting point of the first stage defaults to the normal proportional division of the number of stages plus one (i.e., 3 stages would start at 25, 50, and 75% commands). When the sequencer preheat command rises above the first stage on percent, the analog command begins again at 0 and increases to 100% until the sequencer command equals the starting point of the second stage. The analog output operation between each stage is consistent between all stages. The Vernier control strategy cannot be used with rotational sequencing.
89
Is Rotational Sequencing Needed? Choose among the options in Table 33. Table 33: Is Rotational Sequencing Needed?
Option

The rotational sequencing option allows each stage to be the next started (in order) after the controller turns off the first stage. For example, if Stages 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 energize and then turn off in the opposite order, the next sequence is 2 - 3 - 4 - 1. This new order de-energizes in reverse, and then reorders as 3 - 4 - 1 - 2. When you select the rotational sequencing feature, you cannot use Vernier control.

If communication is lost with the FMS, the controller will use the outside air sensor as a backup for the cooling lockout decision. If the analog input becomes unreliable, the cooling failsoft is enabled. In the event N2 communications is lost when the outside air temperature is below the cooling lockout setpoint, the cooling will be locked out; when the outside air temperature is above the setpoint plus the differential, the cooling will be enabled. If the analog input becomes unreliable, the cooling failsoft is enabled.

Option
No Yes
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. This strategy allows an analog output to be commanded from 0 to 100% between each stage of cooling. The analog command increases from 0 to 100% as the sequencer cooling command from the control strategy increases from 0 to the starting point of the first stage. When you select Vernier control, the starting point of the first stage defaults to the normal proportional division of the number of stages plus one (i.e., 3 stages would start at 25, 50, and 75% commands). When the sequencer command rises above the first stage on percent, the analog command begins again at 0 and increases to 100% until the sequencer command equals the starting point of the second stage. The analog output operation between each stage is consistent between all stages. The Vernier control strategy cannot be used with rotational sequencing.
104
Option
No Yes
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. The rotational sequencing option allows each stage to be the next started (in order) after the controller turns off the first stage. For example, if Stages 1 - 2 - 3 4 energize and then turn off in the opposite order, the next sequence is 2 - 3 - 4 - 1. This new order de-energizes in reverse, and then reorders as 3 - 4 - 1 - 2. When you select the rotational sequencing feature, you cannot use Vernier control.

None Staged
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. As the control humidity decreases below the user defined setpoint and into the humidification proportional band, the controller calculates a 0 to 100% command. Staged humidification requires parameter inputs for cycle, interstage, and minimum on/off timers. Vernier and rotational sequencing is not available for staged humidification outputs. Adding integration to a control loop with staged outputs is not advised, as it usually results in the constant cycling of the outputs. The system controls the modulated humidity (i.e., steam) coil based on the provided humidity sensor (Figure 72). As the control humidity decreases below the user defined setpoint and into the humidification proportional band, the controller issues a 0 to 100% command to the humidification device. During PI control, if the humidity sensor value is within the deadband area, the error is considered 0 and the control output holds constant. In proportional only control, if the sensor value is within the deadband area, the output command is 0%.

Figure 74: Power Fail Restart Choose among the options in Table 75. Table 75: Power Fail Restart Logic?
Option
No Yes
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. A power fail restart delay time delays the startup of the unit after a power failure or controller reset condition. This logic holds the controller in Shutdown mode until the restart timer expires. This strategy prevents the startup of multiple controllers upon the restoration of power. When power is restored to the controller, the reset trigger is initially equal to 0. This results in shutdown being on. When reset completes, the reset trigger is equal to on. This causes a delay before shutdown is commanded back to off.

Is Low Static Selection Between Two Sensors Needed? Choose among the options in Table 77. Table 77: Is Low Static Selection Between Two Sensors Needed?
Option
No Yes
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. Two static pressure sensors can be selected for the AHU controller configuration. The lowest static pressure value is in use as the input to the static pressure PID control loop.
Is Ramp Control Upon Supply Fan Startup Needed? Choose among the options in Table 78. Table 78: Is Ramp Control Upon Supply Fan Startup Needed?
Option
No Yes
Description
No point/parameter assignment or logic sequence for this selection. A ramp step, in percent per second, is a user adjustable parameter. When the static pressure setpoint is obtained during the ramp routine, the PID loop internal integration value will be set equal to the ramp signal offset and the ramp will end. This will provide a smooth transition from the ramp routine to PID control. For example, to achieve 30% command in ten minutes calculate the ramp step as follows: 10 min x 60 secs = 600 seconds 30% 600 secs = 0.05% per second, so the ramp step is 0.05% Note: If the fan status is not on by the time the step reaches setpoint, the fan output will go to 0% and the ramp will restart.

Troubleshooting
Downloading an AHU Application
The following concerns problems that may be encountered when downloading an AHU assembled at HVAC PRO Release 4.00 or 5.00. Note: This overflow is only likely to occur on a very limited number of jobs. Do not let this hamper the upgrade of your AHU jobs to HVAC PRO Release 5.00.
Table 87: Troubleshooting AHU Controllers

Error/Condition
Large Configurations Overflow the Amount of Configuration Space in the AHU Memory
Problem
Due to the enhancements/improvements made in the AHU paths since HVAC PRO Release 3.0, some large configurations may overflow the amount of configuration space in the AHU memory. The problem affects AHU revisions C05 or earlier. The user will not be informed that the program is too large, and the following symptoms can occur: The AHU, after the download, resets continually. The Binary Inputs no longer update their actual condition.
Solution
If you experience one of the symptoms described in the Problem column after downloading the AHU, perform the following: 1. Download the file AHU500.EXE from the Main Board of the Bulletin Board System. This file is self-extracting and will give you three files: AHUASM.EXE, FIXRESET.EXE and README.TXT. 2. Perform the steps in the README file to fix the reset problem. 3. Download the AHU with your original program created with an earlier release of HVAC PRO. If you are upgrading your AHU programs or configuring a new AHU with HVAC PRO Release 5.00, perform the following: 1. Download the file AHU500.EXE from the Main Board of the Bulletin Board System. This file is self-extracting and will give you three files: AHUASM.EXE, FIXRESET.EXE and README.TXT. 2. Assemble your AHU configuration with HVAC PRO Release 5.0. This new assembler will generate an error message Configuration Data Overflow if the file you are assembling will overflow the AHU memory. The object code necessary for download will not be created. 3. If your AHU configuration generates this message, re-configure and download at HVAC PRO Release 3.03.
