2 SYSTEM HARDWARE
This chapter describes the essential parts of the system and any accessories together with their connection and
functions.
This software version requires Small, Medium or Large boards to be used in this system, in accordance with the
configuration requirements.
A panel mounted terminal with a 4x20 LCD display is provided to connect the unit. The terminal has 6 keys to be
used on the unit, in remote control and to be shared with other units on the network.
Besides the boards and terminal, which are essential components, the system includes a few accessories, such as:
• programming key;
• various boards for serial connections;
• Drivers for electronic thermostatic valves.
In some cases it is useful, if not necessary, to use suitable T-connectors in order to facilitate the connection between
the boards and the terminal.
The Small board has 6 analogue inputs, 4 of which are universal and 2 passive, 8 digital inputs, 4 analogue outputs
and 8 digital outputs.
The Medium board has 8 analogue inputs, 6 of which are universal and 2 passive, 14 digital inputs, 4 analogue
outputs and 13 digital outputs.
The Large board has 10 analogue inputs, 6 of which are universal and 4 passive, 18 digital inputs, 6 analogue
outputs and 18 digital outputs.
A “Large” board is shown in the figure below, with the intent of giving a picture of the component. The smaller
“Medium” and “Small” cards differ from the “Large” in the number of inputs and outputs, the “Small” being also
shorter in length.
For more information and details about the features, connections, programming and other on the pCO boards refer
to the manual provided by the manufacturer.

2.2.2 pGD3
pGD3 is a 256-colour Touch Screen LCD graphic display with 320x240 pixel resolution, CCFL-backlighting and 7-
keys.
A user interface can be installed on board the unit or remotely (in this case, set up to be wall-mounted). pGD3
display is not available for inverter-driven units (Datatech+).
The description of the key functions is the same as that of pGD0 with the addition of the key, which is used to
switch the unit ON/OFF.
Besides all the menus in common with the pGD0 display (described below), the pGD3 display has an additional
menu called “Display Configuration”, which appears when the Up arrow+Down arrow+Enter keys are pressed
simultaneously.
The “Display Configuration” menu is used to select the 3 main configuration categories of the display, which are:
• Screen Settings: Screen-related settings;
• Network Configuration: RS485 network-related settings;
• General Options: Various settings.
• Network Monitor: Used to display the network status visually indicating which devices are connected for each
address. Hereunder are the meanings of the symbols:

2.3 Hardware for Datatech+ only
For Datatech+ units the hardware shown on the previous chapter is used, with the addition of new components as
follows:
pCO* µPC
Power +
pGD0
Electronic
Expansion Valve
The µPC is a card dedicated to the execution of the control program for the management of a BLDC compressor
through the Power+ inverter. The program and the parameters are stored on a E2prom, the data is stored in the
event of power failure (without the need for a backup battery).
The program can be uploaded via PC or dedicated programming key.
The controller also allows connection to the serial bus and to all terminals of the pGD family.
The integrated driver for the management of electronic expansion valves with single-pole step motor ensures better
performance of the refrigeration circuit thanks to the PID control of superheat and full control of the working
conditions of the compressor (controlled via ModBus® serial communication).
Finally, the µPC can be connected to a terminal environment for the monitoring and control of parameters.
For a detailed description of the board, and its programming procedure see the specific manual attached to
the unit.
8
2.3.2 The Power+ driver
Power+ is designed to drive a permanent magnet (PM) brushless DC compressor / BLAC sensorless or
asynchronous induction motors. For the latter you can choose between vector or V/f control.
It is designed for panel mounting or with heat sink out of electrical switchboard. The configuration and programming,
as well as the start / stop and the reference speed, are managed by the pCO controller via RS485 serial link with
Modbus ® protocol.
For a detailed description of the drive and its programming procedure see the separate manual attached to
the unit.
On pCO3 it is necessary to install a RS485 serial card (Carel code PCO100FD10); the card will be installed on the
Field Bus slot of the controller.
On the uPC Combo Drive it is needed to install an RS485 serial card (Carel code PCOS004850), which must be
installed on the J6 connector.
9
2.4 Serial cards for remote monitoring and assistance
When a serial board is installed, the unit can be connected to monitoring and remote assistance systems.
Various options are available depending on the required communication protocol.
• The RS485 serial board with PCOS004850 code enables communication with Carel and Modbus networks,
using Carel proprietary protocol or Modbus-Jbus protocol.
• The serial board with PCO10000F0 code (FTT10 interface) enables communication in LonWorks®
networks.
• The PCO1000BB0 board enables connection to RS485 BACnet™ networks.
• The RS232 serial board with PCO100MDM0 code enables the controller to connect to a modem for
standard PSTN telephone connections and GSM connection to send SMS messages.
• The pCO Web (PCO1000WB0) board enables connection to Ethernet networks with SNMP, http and
BACnet™ over IP protocol.
The serial boards must be inserted in the correct slot where an edge card connector is present.
The Serial Card door must be removed from the controller for these to be installed:
10
Once the board has been inserted, the door must be
set back in place by aligning the exposed board
connector with the hole of the door itself.
11
2.5 TLAN network adapter
The pco100TLN0 TLAN adapter is used to expand the pCO* board capacity and connect it to devices, such as
drivers for electronic thermostatic valves, on the local network. A max of 5 devices can be connected. This
application allows two EVD400 drivers to be connected.
12
2.6 Electronic expansion valve
The EVD000400 driver module controls the electronic expansion valves in a TLAN network, thereby allowing
precise suction superheat adjustment for more efficient and versatile operation of the cooling unit.
When an electronic expansion valve is used, besides the Driver and the valve itself, a temperature probe and a
pressure transducer are also required, both installed on the cooling side of the evaporator end part (on the
compressor suction piping). Refer to Figure 2-1 to better understand a typical system layout.

2.6.1 TLAN network setting
The EVD400 drivers communicate with the pCO* board via a TLAN proprietary local network. The Running-Stand-by
network can take up to five devices connected to the pCO* board. This application version allows a maximum of two
EVD400 drivers, thereby using address 1 and 2.
EVD4UI software is required to set the TLAN address of each driver correctly. The EVD400 driver must be
connected to the PC on which the relative programme is running via the CVSTDUTTLo converter.
Once the EVD4UI programme is launched, the serial address is set (or verified):
Refer to the manuals and specific instruction sheets for further information regarding the EVD400 driver.

2.7 Integrated Humidifier
The pCO* boards control all the functions: from reading the humidifier parameters to controlling its devices via relays
(fill-up, drain, capacity). The humidifier values (current, conductivity, level) are not read directly but via an interface
board (PCOUMID200 or PCOUMID000).

2.8 Local network for pCO*
The P-LAN network allows the various elements that make the system communicate with each other via the
standard RS485 serial with a baud rate of 65.2 kbit/s, using the Carel Multimaster protocol.
The number of elements composing the system varies according to complexity; ranging from a basic configuration,
which consists of an I/O board and a unit management terminal, to a more complex configuration, which consists of
an I/O board, a local and remote terminal and other I/O boards for any other network units.
The boards are identified within the network via their P-LAN address.
The 6-key terminal and the pCO* boards are addressed via software, as described further on.
2
The boards on the P-LAN network are connected by means of two wires with a minimum section of 0.5 mm plus a
sheath or shield.
The connection must be made by connecting RxTx+ and RxTx- to the corresponding terminals of the various boards
(connector J11 on the pCO* board).
If the distance between the terminal and the pCO* board that powers it is less than 50 m, the terminal connection
can be direct via a 6-way telephone cable.
If the terminal is to be connected at a distance greater than 50 m but within 200 m, or if two terminals are to be
2
connected to the same I/O board, use three pairs of braided wires inside a shield with a minimum section of 0.5 mm
and T-switches as shown in the figure.
If the terminal is to be remote controlled at a distance greater than 200 m but within 500 m, the terminal must not be
powered by the pCO* board but separately.
The T-switch sets the three telephone connectors in parallel with the terminal board.

selected:
The main Menu mask on the terminals displays the address of the connected board in the lower right corner.

3 PROGRAMMING THE PCO*
Programming the boards involves the uploading of the application software.
The microprocessor requires at least the application files (flash1.bin, AIRCON*.iup, *.grt files), the bios.bin file and
the boot.bin file in the flash memory of the pCO* boards for it to work. The LCT and PVT files are required if the
variable log recording is also managed.
Normally, Carel inserts the latest official version of the bios.bin and boot.bin files in the pCO* boards.
Since Blue Box applications are tested and released with a specific version of the bios.bin and boot.bin files, it is
important for the files forming part of the "package" accompanying the application to always be loaded even though
the update of the boot file should not be required.
The boards can be programmed via the PCOS00AKY0 smartkey (pCO³) or with USB key (pCO5), or with a
computer using “pCO_manager” software.
When the key is used, the memory of the pCO* board is always completely overwritten (except for the BOOT file);
when pCO_manager is used, the various software components to be loaded can be selected.
Please refer to specific pCO* card manual for additional instructions relevant to the uploading of the software with
the key.
The currently installed boot and bios versions appear in the first and second rows. The physical memory appears in
the third row (for the application and log recording).
The information is also found in the Maintenance menu once the software is installed.

Press the “confirmation arrow” for the cursor to move beneath the terminal addressing field.
Use the Up Arrow or Down Arrow to modify the terminal address.
The terminal address in the figure is 17 (terminal of board no. 1).
After setting the terminal address correctly, press the Confirmation Arrow and the cursor will move to the address
selection field of the board associated with the terminal.
Use the Up Arrow or Down Arrow to modify the board of which the terminal displays the parameters.
The board address in the figure is 1.
The addressing procedure of the 6-key PGD terminal is now complete. Press any key apart from the Confirmation
Arrow to exit the configuration phase, and Enter to access the configuration of the network terminals, which is
described in the following chapter.
19
3.2.2 pCO* boards addressing software
The pCO* board does not have the micro switches to set the P-LAN address. The address must be set by following
a particular procedure:
a. Press UP, DOWN, ENTER at the same time to enter the address change screen
b. Set the display address to “0” for the point-to point connection. Confirm with ENTER
7. Use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow to modify the address and then press Enter to confirm.
8. Set the pCO* card address according to requirements of the installation.
3.2.3 Procedure to assign the list of terminals for the pCO* boards on the network
This procedure enables the terminal/s set up on the network to display the parameters of the I/O boards present.
Network management provides the possibility of enabling a terminal to display the parameters of a specific board,
which is referred to as a private terminal, or boards, which is considered to be a shared terminal.
A pCO* board can communicate with a maximum of three terminals, of which only one can be configured as shared.
The other two must be configured as private.
The configuration procedure of the terminals in a network via 6-key terminals is a continuation of their assignment
procedure.
The previous paragraph describes the procedure to assign an address to the terminal, after which, Enter is pressed
to access the addressing procedure of the terminals on the network and the mask below appears.
Terminal config
Press ENTER
to continue
Press the Confirmation Arrow for the cursor to move to the field where the address of the first adr and trm1 terminal
is set.
Value 17 must be entered in order to maintain uniformity of both the addresses and that set previously in the terminal
address.
After having pressed the Confirmation Arrow for the terminal to be assigned address 17 and the I/O board to be
displayed at address 1, the cursor will move beneath the column in which the terminal features will be assigned.
Press the “confirmation arrow” for the cursor to move to the second row for a second terminal to be configured.
Since the software allows a number of units to be connected, Pr or Sh (i.e. board parameters displayed at address
1) can also be set from a shared terminal.
If no other terminals are to be set up, press the Confirmation Arrow to skip all the fields leaving them unchanged
(None and —) right through to the last field “Ok?No” where the Up Arrow or Down Arrow is used to change “No” to
“Yes” in order to confirm the selections made.
After having set Yes, press the Confirmation Arrow and the software will automatically exit the network terminal
configuration procedure.
The configuration procedure of the terminals in a network via a 1-15 key terminal is slightly different.
The command to enter the procedure is the same as that of the 6-key terminal, i.e. by pressing the Up Arrow, Down
Arrow and Enter simultaneously. The following mask will appear after five seconds:
Terminal Adr: 17
I/O Board Adr: 1
The address of the terminal set via the micro switches appears in the first row.
The address of the connected I/O board appears in the second row.

4 HARDWARE TROUBLESHOOTING
25
5 DESCRIPTION OF SOFTWARE OPERATION
5.1 General
This software is designed to manage Close Control units, used to air-condition a number of different environments
requiring precise temperature and humidity control.
Particular attention has been paid to the Energy Saving aspect and for this purpose, specific controls have been
included to make use of environmental conditions in favour of energy saving.
- Summer/Winter CW (with external control and dual set-point, one for summer and one for winter).
- “Double Water coils” (DW).
- “Air Free cooling” (FcA).
5.4 Post-heating
This function heats the air to be treated so as to meet the temperature set-point.
The post-heating function is controlled by step-controlled devices (e.g. electric heaters or hot water coil with an
ON/OFF servo controller) or with proportional control devices (e.g. 3-way floating water valve with 3-Point or 0-10V
modulating control).
5.5 Humidification
This function supplies water vapour to the air to be treated so as to meet the set relative humidity set-point
(expressed as a percentage).
Humidification can be obtained by means of an integrated immersed electrode humidifier or with ON/OFF or
modulating (0-10V) control in the case of an external humidifier.
26
5.6 Dehumidification
Dehumidification, i.e. cooling the air below dew point, reduces the relative humidity in the recirculation air.
This function can be controlled with the compressors (DE) or chilled water coil (CW), which can also operate below
the temperature set-point up to the limit beyond which the function is suspended.
The cooled air can then be post-heated with electric heaters or a hot water coil in proportion to the distance from the
set-point.
Furthermore, in order to enhance the dehumidification process, the controller can control the supply fan speed
(reducing it when dehumidification is requested) or lower the evaporation temperature (only with the electronic
thermostatic valve).
27
6 SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS
The following diagram illustrates the behaviour of the heating and cooling devices. The start and end opening
parameters of the heating and cooling valves are separate and can be set at will in the 0-100% range of the

6.1.3 Chilled water cabinets (CW) with a single coil
A cabinet with a single water coil and control valve (3P floating or 0-10V control) can be set with logic switching from
cooling to heating and relative set-points by programming the controller appropriately and acting on digital input ID2:
summer set-point for cooling logic, winter set-point for heating logic. The coil must be supplied with cold water when
in cooling mode or hot water when in heating mode, depending on the selected logic.

• The average return air temperature will be closer to the set-point with respect to proportional control alone
(reduced error).
• The cooling devices can also run below the set-point, even when dehumidification is not required. This is
somehow inherent to integral control and cannot be avoided.
29
6.2 Humidity control
The humidity devices are controlled according to the humidity values read by the ambient probe B1 (or return). The
value read is compared with the desired value and the devices are activated according to the difference.
The proportional band identifies the actual adjustment range and separate humidification and dehumidification
values can be set.
There is a 0.2% fixed dead zone before and after the set-point, in which no adjustment takes place (to prevent
oscillations).

6.2.1 Humidification
Humidification is possible by means of an:
• Integrated immersed electrode humidifier with proportional control according to the adjustment band;
• External humidifier, which is either ON/OFF (controlled by digital output DO11) or modulating (controlled by
analogue output Y2).
6.2.2 Dehumidification
Dehumidification is possible by means of:
• An external dehumidification device control (digital output DO6)
• Activation of the cooling devices (compressors or coil) to reach the dew point of the treated air. The
activation mode changes according to the enabled priority: TEMPERATURE or HUMIDITY. In the former
case, the cooling devices are activated proportionally in relation to the temperature until the temperature set-
point is reached, after which they are forced to 100%. In the latter case, they are immediately forced to
100%. In both cases, if the temperature drops below the set-point, cooling continues and the heaters will be
activated.
• Reducing the air flow:
this is enabled in the Manufacturer section with the option of a motor that is either dual-pole or adjustable
with an external inverter. In the former case, the controller will "switch" between the DO1 and DO6 digital
outputs, thereby allowing two different remote switches connected to the two motor windings to be closed,
with a dead time that can be set (default: 2 s) for the electromechanical control devices to disengage
completely. The low speed output is activated when the humidity exceeds the threshold, which is equal to
the set-point+the dehumidification band and is deactivated when the set-point is reached. In the case of an
adjustable motor, the Y1 control signal is reduced from the maximum value to a constant value during the
entire the dehumidification process. This allows the optimal air flow to be more finely adjusted. Activation
follows the same reference parameters as for double speed.
• With an electronic expansion valve, decreasing the evaporation temperature by increasing the intake
refrigerant superheat. The process is automatic upon the dehumidification request and the desired
superheat set-point is required during the process.
30
6.2.3 Other humidity functions
This function allows the controller to detect the constancy of the ambient humidity (read by the control probe),
beyond the set limits and longer than the set value, thereby triggering a non-serious alarm on the display. The
high/low humidity status does not deactivate the outputs.

6.3 Compressors
6.3.2 Rotation
If more than one compressor is present, the sequence with which the controller activates them can be set as
necessary:
• None: the controller activates the first available compressor (starting from no. 1).
• FIFO (fist in, first out): the controller controls the compressor sequence and the first to be activated is
deactivated first (consequently, the first to be deactivated is re-activated last).
Min. time between two start-ups The minimum compressor time intervals must be respected.
Particularly, those pertaining to various start-up and shutdown
Min. ON time combinations.

Figure 6-5
31
6.3.3.1 Minimum start-up time (ON)
This sets the minimum time (in seconds) that each compressor must remain ON, regardless of shutdown requests
(provided these are not caused by alarms).
• Opening digital output ID1 – compressor 1 will always be switched OFF. This normally involves a high
pressure switch with automatic reset, with a slightly lower intervention threshold than the high pressure
switch (safety) with manual reset. No alarm is triggered.
• If the high pressure transducer is set (analogue input B2), only compressor 1 shutdown will be automatic
once the high pressure alarm threshold (from the transducer) is reached, with an alarm signal (can be reset
automatically – see paragraph 6.16.2).
6.3.5 Management of the solenoid valves on the hot gas by-pass line
If digital outputs DO9 and DO10 are enabled as by-pass valves, they can be used to delay opening the solenoid
valves on the hot gas by-pass line. The delay time refers to the start-up of each compressor and can be set.
32
6.3.7 Management of Inverter Driven Compressors
The compressor regulation takes place, as standard, by the return air temperature: the controller measures the
return temperature and processes a command signal for the compressor according to a PID logic referring to the
control set point and the corresponding differential.
When the PID regulation ramp of the temperature reaches 50% there is the activation request for the compressor; if
cooling demand goes to zero the compressor is shut off.
The compressor modulates both in activation request and deactivation.
The regulation ramp is used as a request for inverter regulation.
When enabled, the humidity control in dehumidification mode causes compressor to operate at 100% power
capacity.
The alarms that cause the compressor shut off are the same of an on/off compressor (immediate power off without
deceleration ramp); same shutdown mode when the shut off command is given to the entire unit.
The control logic of the variable capacity compressor provides the following:
• adaptation of the cooling capacity to the actual thermal load; a precise adjustment is carried out, which allows to
minimize the fluctuations in temperature and humidity (when required) and the number of compressor startups.
• optimization of the compressor management maintaining the operating conditions within the application limits
provided by the manufacturer (envelope management)
• management of oil return cycles to avoid excessive oil migration in the refrigeration system with separate sections
• management of operating cycles at maximum rotational speed to compensate for sudden thermal load peaks.
The enabling of inverter compressor management can be done on the mask CL in the manufacturer menu.
Once enabled, additional masks are activated in the parameter and I/O menu, which allow to set / display
parameters for proper operation.
In the case of direct expansion units with DC inverter compressor, the P (proportional) temperature control must be
activated.
In the direct expansion units the management of the liquid line solenoid valve (which is normally connected to the
digital output which activates the on/off compressor) is linked to the number of revolutions of the compressor: when
the compressor has a number of revolutions greater than 0, the valve is energized, when the number of revolutions
is equal to 0, the valve is de-energized.
This function is only active with DC inverter units.
In the case of direct expansion Dual Cooling or Free Cooling units with inverter compressor, the air flow is kept
constant and equal to the nominal value, in this way the freecooling is fully exploited, limiting the intervention of the
compressor and thereby reducing the total electric power absorbed by the machine.
- Separate ON/OFF outputs: each output controls a fan unit according to the pressure detected of each
circuit.
- Two-step ON/OFF outputs for a single bi-circuit condensing coil for step control based on the higher
condensation pressure.
- Separate analogue outputs: each output controls a fan unit with a 0-10V modulating signal based on the
condensing pressure detected of each circuit.
- A single analogue output for each condensation coil with a 0-10V modulating signal based on the higher
pressure.
In any case, the outputs are only activated when the compressors are switched ON:
in the case of two separate outputs, each one is only linked to operation of the relative compressor; in the case of
one shared output, activation of one of the two compressors is sufficient.

A minimum and maximum speed can be set for the analogue output; if the minimum speed setting is other than
zero, the controller will automatically switch off the 1 bar output (fixed value) when this drops below the condensation
set value.
Pre-ventilation can be enabled in the Manufacturer menu, which allows the user to switch the ventilation ON at
maximum speed (with the compressors OFF) if the pressure rises excessively, example due to solar radiation.
A single analogue output configuration can be used in water condensing units to pilot a condensation control (two or
three way) valve. A pre-adjustment value and a compressor start-up delay can be set. Therefore, the water valve
can open and start the adjusting process upon compressor start-up, thereby avoiding high pressure transient
instances due to mechanical inertia of the valve.

Figure 6-8
The software processes the actual target cylinder production in accordance with Nominal Production (cylinder
parameter, equal to its maximum production at full capacity), Maximum Production (parameter set by the user, a
percentage of maximum production) and the difference between the set-point and the actual value (according to the
diagram in Figure 6-8).
The humidifier has a minimum production of 20% of the Nominal Power (for technical purposes) and remains
constant at this value up to 20% of the proportional band, increasing as the difference between actual humidity and
the set value also increases up to the maximum production set at the proportional band limit.
The humidifier has a fixed low hysteresis of 0.2% for start-up and shutdown.
35
The water level decreases during evaporation and since the measured current is directly proportional to the amount
of water in the cylinder, very small amounts of water would have to be continuously poured into the cylinder to keep
the current value constant.
It has been decided to keep the current within a certain range that is close to the reference current by means of
repeated “water fill-up/evaporation” cycles in order to avoid this.
Another determining factor, besides the level of the water inside the cylinder, which effects the measured current is
conductivity of the water inside the cylinder. In fact, during the evaporation cycles, water conductivity will increase due to
an increase in the concentration of salts. Conductivity of the water inside the boiler is measured indirectly by means of the
time taken to complete an evaporation cycle. This time is then compared with a reference value (typical for each cylinder),
and if this is less, a specific amount of water is drained (drain by dilution) and then less conductive water is filled from the
main supply.
The humidifier also has a conductivity meter that can detect the conductivity of the mains supply that enters during
fill-up. In the case of high conductivity of the water flow, the control algorithm first signals a pre-alarm (that does not
interrupt operation) and then an alarm (that interrupts operation). This is essential to prevent excessive water flow
conductivity in the cylinder that could compromise the proper operation of the humidifier.
A fundamental element placed at the top of the boiler is the high level probe that detects any water or foam.
The high level electrodes can intervene for various reasons:
• total water fill-up in the boiler - with the machine inactive - due to a leaking fill-up solenoid valve;
• high water level during the initial cylinder fill-up process;
• high water level following cylinder exhaustion due to deposits on the plates;
• formation of foam.
Should the high level probe intervene repeatedly, the algorithm evaluates the possibility of this being caused by the
formation of foam. If the high level probe interventions persist after washing the cylinder completely (complete drain-
complete fill-up-complete drain) the controller signals a foam alarm (that does not interrupt operation).
The control of any overcurrent is an important aspect of humidifier operation. In fact, each time voltage is applied to
the boiler electrodes after a stopped period, brief but very intense current peaks may occur. If an overcurrent occurs
during the initial period, the algorithm responds immediately by disconnecting the voltage from the electrodes and
activating a drain cycle. If the overcurrent should persist, humidifier operation is interrupted and a high current
alarm is triggered.
The algorithm also monitors the methods with which the draining cycles are implemented, signalling a drain alarm if
necessary, if a significant current reduction is not detected as from when a drain cycle begins.
Vice versa, a no water alarm can be signalled if a significant current increase is not detected during the humidifier
water fill-up cycle.
36
The humidity is controlled by the programme according to the humidity probe reading, the humidity set-point and the
humidity differential.
- Operating hours alarm threshold. A maintenance time limit can be set as follows, if required: operating hours
are calculated by the actual cylinder production percentage (i.e. 1000 hours at 50% capacity are equal to 500 hours
at 100% capacity); when the pre-set threshold is reached, a pre-alarm is displayed (cylinder maintenance warning);
when 1.5 times the set threshold is reached, a maintenance alarm is displayed and the cylinder is stopped. The
humidifier operating hours must be reset before resetting both types of alarm.
In the former case, the humidifier is activated when the set-point less the humidifier proportional band is reached and
then stops at the set-point. The external humidifier must have its own control logic and a potential-free alarm contact
connected to the relative input of the pCO* board to signal the fault. In this case the digital output will be deactivated.
In the latter case, the 0-10V signal activation is proportional to the ambient humidity position within the humidification
proportional band; even in this case, the external humidifier must have its own adjustment logic and a potential-free
contact to signal the alarm status as explained above.
Example: a valve with a 90 s stroke time to open from zero to 40%, requires a 36 s opening pulse. To then bring the
valve to 25%, the following closing pulse is required:
40%-25%=15% multiplied by 90 s =13.5 s.
6.7.1.1 Realignment
A characteristic of the 3-point valves is that of not having a feedback signal that can transmit the actual position to
the controller. Mechanical inertia and minor inaccuracies can be added gradually as the number of activations
increases until significant positioning errors are reached. The programme resolves this problem as follows:
• Each time the temperature adjustment requires the valve to be fully opened or closed, the opening or closing
relay activation time is increased by 25%. This ensures the valve end-of-travel is reached.
• Each time the unit is switched ON, the valves are force closed for the same amount of time required for the
total stroke time so as to start control from zero.
37
The electric signal of the relative analogue output is directly proportional to the regulator request as is the valve
position. There are no alignment problems in this case.
In both cases, the fan is activated when the unit is set to ON and remains so until the unit is set to OFF (via a
keyboard, digital input, time bands or monitoring) or STAND-BY (by rotation with other units on the network). Fan
activation delay times can be set with regards to unit start-up (ON) and shutdown (OFF).
The fan is only switched OFF during operation if an alarm is triggered. This occurs due to a direct ventilation alarm
(motor thermal protection, no air flow) or a serious alarm related to the unit as a whole (fire/smoke alarm, flood
alarm, external alarm, condensate drain pump alarm). Chilled water units allow the user to define whether the
(chilled) water flow alarm must stop the fan or not.
If the fan is controlled by a digital (ON/OFF) type of signal, the output works as follows:
digital output NO1 is activated when the unit is set to ON and remains so until the unit is set to OFF (via a keyboard,
digital input, time bands or monitoring) or STAND-BY (by rotation with other units on the network). Digital output NO1
activation delay times can be set with regards to unit start-up (ON) and shutdown (OFF).
When in humidifying status, digital output NO1 control changes according to the activation implemented in the Cz
mask:
Enabled Cz mask
Dehumidification requestNO1 is disabled (OFF) and output NO6 is enabled (ON) after a set switch time elapses
Dehumidification request is metNO6 is disabled (OFF) and output NO1 is enabled (ON) after a set switch time
elapses.
Disabled Cz mask
Dehumidification requestNO1 remains enabled and output NO6 is enabled (in this case, NO6 has a LED function:
it only identifies the dehumidification status)
Dehumidification request is met NO1 remains enabled and output NO6 is disabled
If the fan is controlled by a modulating (0-10V) type of signal, the following operating logic can be applied:
• Manual
The fan control logic is enabled in manual mode from the relative mask
Manual control requires the fan speed to be set manually in the relative mask in the Set-Point menu. The set values
range between two limits (minimum and maximum).
• Semi-automatic TR
The return temperature fan control logic is enabled from the relative mask.
The Semi-automatic TR control requires the fan speed to change continuously in line with the return temperature
variations, modulating within the proportional band between two set minimum/maximum limits. A fixed speed can
also be set (generally a lower value than the maximum speed) that is to be maintained during the dehumidification
status.
An activation offset value (expressed in °C) can al so be set for this type of fan control with respect to the return
temperature set-point. The logic also applies to the heating band.
The logic is represented as follows:

• Semi-automatic TMd-TMr
The supply temperature control logic is enabled from the relative mask
The Semi-automatic TMd-TMr control requires the fan speed to change continuously in line with the supply
temperature variations, within a range called supply temperature differential and between two set minimum and
maximum limits.
Signal modulation varies according to two types of logic:
direct and reverse logic, set in the relative mask.
The direct logic (TMd) works in a way that the signal increases as the air supply temperature increases.
The reverse logic (TMr) works in a way that the signal decreases as the air supply temperature increases.
A fixed speed can be set during forced dehumidification.
The thermostatic control probe is the air return probe, therefore the fan adjustment ranges do not correspond to
those of the cooling/heating devices. When thermostatic operation is requested (return temp.), the fans adjust their
speed according to their own control parameters.
The logic presented below must be "copied" for the heating mode.

• Automatic POC
The logic is enabled from the relative mask
The fan speed is automatically controlled by a feedback system for the air flow to be kept constant as the external
conditions vary (filter status, pressure drops in the air distribution system, etc.). The minimum, maximum, differential
and set-point pressure values are set for the dehumidification mode in the relative mask.
The controller must calculate a pressure value upon unit start-up, which depends on the air return temperature
reading. The controller compares the read value with the return temperature set-point and differential just like during
regular operation. An actual pressure value must correspond with the read temperature value and where this is
positioned with respect to the set-point and differential (fig. 6-11).
Therefore, the actual pressure value varies linearly with respect to the return temperature and the relative band.
The controller logic tends to "follow" and meet the actual pressure value (therefore considered a variable set-point),
comparing it with the value read by the transducer on the fan nozzle.
This system provides the precise air flow value according to the thermal load
A return temperature set-point offset is set up on CW units to reach the minimum speed at a temperature that is
slightly higher than the set-point. In certain applications, this allows the cold water valve to open before the fan starts
to work.
The fan must have an air flow measuring system for this mode to be used. This logic is applied in "EC Radial" type
of fans.
The control system has a nozzle with one or more pressure inlets and an air differential pressure transducer. The air
flow of a single fan is linked to the pressure difference measured between the external and internal parts of the
nozzle. The controller adjusts this pressure difference and thereby controls the air flow.
Figure 6-12
40
The feedback control diagram is shown in Figure 6-. The system enables an air differential pressure transducer on
analogue input B3 by selecting the type (4-20 mA, 0-10V, 0-5V) and the measurement range. The pressure value is
read and compared with the desired set-point value.
The PID regulator parameters (proportional band, integral time and differential time) can be set in the Manufacturer
menu. It is recommended to contact the Manufacturer's Technical Assistance department for the above mentioned
parameters to be modified.
The pressure value read by the transducer and its conversion into the air flow rate can be viewed in the I/O menu.
When the differential pressure transducer is enabled, the no air flow alarm is controlled via software and not via a
digital input:

The air flow remains fixed in dehumidification mode (single pressure set-point for dehumidification).
• Automatic PRC
The logic is enabled from the relative mask.
The logic is only active in CW units and with a number of units connected on the P-LAN network.
The fan speed is automatically controlled by a feedback system. The control logic keeps the air flow constant as the
external conditions vary (filter status, pressure drops in the air distribution system, etc.). The fan must have an air
flow measuring system for this mode to be used. This logic is applied in "EC Radial" type of fans.
When a number of units are present on the P-LAN network and each unit has its own pressure transducer, the fans
are controlled by a signal that is proportional to the difference between the average of the values read by each
transducer and the pressure set-point of each unit.
The value read by the pressure transducer and displayed in the I/O mask is shown as Air Supply Pressure
expressed in Pa.
The air flow alarm is controlled via a digital input and not via a pressure transducer.
A pressure set-point to be maintained in dehumidification is not set in this mode.

6.9 Electronic thermostatic valves
If electronic thermostatic control valves are used, the correct number of drivers in the relative Manufacturer mask
and the model of the electronic valve present must first be enabled. The Carel EVD000400 driver allows the user to
control the following valves:
• Carel E2V*
• Sporlan SEI 0.5-20
• Sporlan SEI 30
• Sporlan SEH 50-250
• Alco EX5-EX6
• Alco EX7
• Alco EX8 330 steps
• Alco EX8 500 steps
• Danfoss ETS-25/50
• Danfoss ETS-100
• Carel E2V*P
• Danfoss ETS-250/400
• (Customised)
The drivers can be equipped with backup batteries for the valves to close in the event of an abrupt power cut.
The basic principle of the control algorithm is based on stability together with the superheat state being reached
quickly, when possible.
The algorithm calculates the superheat as a difference between the intake temperature read by the temperature
probe and the saturation temperature corresponding with the pressure read by the transducer (by means of the
tables based on the set refrigerant).
The core of the control is a coefficient PID algorithm that can be set as a set-point (generally 5°C) to control the
superheat. The coefficients of the PID algorithm are set by default following theoretical evaluations and experimental
tests, however, general guidelines can be provided for an initial set up:
Additional parameters for the dehumidification control are also present: a superheat set-point is set to be used
during dehumidification. The highest superheat implies a smaller evaporator surface pertaining to the boiling of the
liquid, thereby being equal to its capacity control with a relative reduction in the evaporation temperature. The lowest
evaporation temperature is equal to a lower superficial temperature of the pipes and fins, with a relative increase in
air dehumidification.
If the EVD400 drivers are enabled to control the electronic thermostatic valves, the value read by the intake pressure
transducers can be used to control the low pressure alarm via software (in this case, the relative digital inputs can be
ignored).
In any case, it is not recommended to modify the set default values without the Manufacturer's support.

Free cooling not Free cooling

Figure 6-95
There are two distinct methods of integrating the cooling devices: normal and "free".
The former method requires a free cooling valve to be used with the compressors (auxiliary compressor operation).
In this case, the cooling proportional band is divided in two parts: a return valve is used in the first part and the
compressor steps in the second. This means that free cooling is used alone as long as the load demand is met,
otherwise the compressors are activated also.
The diagram below illustrates the control logic: note how the operating bands of the chilled water valve and the
compressors overlap. Only the valve's maximum opening can be modified.
Set-point
Cooling band
Figure 6-106
The latter method only requires the return valve, provided the water is sufficiently cold (alternating compressor
mode). The valve occupies the entire proportional band as in the case of the chilled water coil, modulating according
to the thermal load request.
In both cases, if the water temperature does not conform with that required for free cooling, the relative valve is
closed and the cooling is transferred entirely to the compressors that occupy the entire proportional band.
If dehumidification is required, compressor start-up can be delayed with respect to the valve's total opening.

6.13 Limiting the supply temperature in free cooling and dual cooling
Both types of operation require a temperature probe on the air flow.
This prevents air that is too cold from entering the ambient during free cooling and ice formation on the direct
expansion coil when this works together with free cooling.
The parameters that determine the function of this feature are mainly a set-point and an air flow differential. The
"limit" of the cooling devices within the differential increases proportionally until it reaches the "total limit" at the
differential extreme. As for the limited devices, if the compressors are not enabled together with the valves/dampers,
this means:
• The valves are closed progressively
• The single compressor is switched OFF when reaching the differential
• In the case of 2 compressors, one is switched OFF when reaching half the differential and the other when
reaching the differential

Note that the supply temperature limiting function can be enabled separately from free cooling or dual cooling and in

6.14 DW Control (Dual Water)
DW control is reserved for chilled water units (CW). The scope is to control two separate cooling coils with two
separate 3-point control valves.
There are two control modes of the double chilled water coil:
• Separate: only one coil (and valve) works at a time, which is selected by digital input ID1. The valve running
at that time occupies the entire proportional band. Example of application: one coil works during the day with
water from the chiller and the other works during the night with water from a dry cooler or another source.
• Combined: both coils (and valves) are used simultaneously within the same differential. In this case the
status of input ID1 is ineffective. Example of application: one coil uses a primary source for the normal
thermal load and the other uses a different auxiliary source for peak loads.
If the coils are used together, the control starting point (closed valve) and finishing point (valve completely open) can
be set within the cooling band for each valve. For example, one valve can be opened in the first half of the
proportional band and the second valve in the remaining part, as shown in the diagram below.
Set-point
40% 100%
Figure 6-23
Manual activation of the individual outputs requires a number of precautions in order to prevent incorrect operation of
the devices:
• Always activate digital output no. 1 (fan) first, even when the output is not physically connected, to prevent
failure of the safety devices.
• Unless a simulated test is being run with no voltage to the loads, activate the compressors and/or the
heaters after having activated the ventilation.
• Deactivate digital output no. 1 last.
Manual control is only possible with the unit OFF. All activated outputs must be deactivated manually during the
manual procedure for the unit to be restarted in automatic mode (ON status).
48
6.16 Alarms
The terminal connected to the pCO* board can display 89 different alarms, triggered by the opening of a digital input
to which a safety device is connected, a set threshold being exceeded or abnormal operating conditions.
When an alarm is triggered, the terminal connected to the pCO* board lights up the red LED below the Alarm key
and energises the alarm digital output (DO8). Press the Alarm key to display the alarm and once again to delete the
alarm if the conditions allow this.
The following table describes the meaning of each alarm and the devices that are shutdown when the alarm is
triggered.
- When a number of units are in Running/Stand-by mode on the local network and a "serious" alarm is
triggered, one of the units in stand-by is activated.
- Digital output 7 is activated if it is enabled as a "minor alarm" and such an alarm is triggered; if a "serious"
alarm is triggered, digital output 8 is activated.
NOTE: the characteristics of a particular alarm (see the table in the previous paragraph) determine whether the
entire unit is to be shut down or not. This does NOT depend on the minor/serious classification.
If digital output 7 is not enabled to indicate "minor alarms", such an alarm will be considered a "serious" alarm and
digital output 8 will be activated. In this case, this output will be assigned the general alarm output function.
If the customer must manage an alarm deriving from an external controller, a digital input of the pCO3 board can be
customised as follows:
the external alarm can be assigned to the minor or serious alarm category from the relative mask and the text
description of the alarm that appears on the display can be set
30 min t
Figure 6-24
Clearly, if the number of alarms and time intervals are set freely, the user must apply due caution and be aware of
the unit operating specifications in order to prevent the alarms from always being reset automatically due to a low
ratio (time)/(no. of alarms). It is recommended to set a minimum value that is greater than the compressor anti-
recirculation time.

6.16.3 Water flow switch control
The water flow switch is controlled differently and particularly, according to the function required.
Type of unit Flow switch input What it controls What it shuts down Type of reset
Water condensed ID15 Condensation water Compressors Automatic or manual
DE
Dual Cooling DE ID15 Chilled water Chilled water valve Automatic or manual
CW ID10 Chilled water Chilled water valve or Automatic or manual
the entire unit
CW DC ID10 Chilled water Chilled water valve Automatic or manual
(primary)
In the case of water condensed direct expansion units, the flow switch has the basic function of preventing high
pressure alarms due to no water.
In the case of chilled water units, the flow switch has the function of monitoring water presence for the water coil.
In the case of DC units, the flow switch switches the cooling function to the backup system (compressors or
secondary water valve) if there is no primary chilled water.
In all instances, the alarm delay time can be set upon start-up as well as during operation. If automatic reset is
configured, the number of restarts is not limited.

The aim of this function is to monitor the temperature difference transmitted to the treated air, thereby assigning a
value that is too low, which indicates a probable drop in efficiency. For this reason, the supply air temperature probe
must be connected and enabled.
• Theoretical operating delta (default value 10°C, w hich can be modified). This is the acceptable minimum
temperature difference between the return and supply air probe at maximum cooling capacity. If only one of
two compressors is ON, the delta is automatically divided by two.
• Tolerance. This is a multiplicative numerical factor of the temperature difference measured. The calculated
value is that compared with the theoretical delta.
• Delay time. Once the measured temperature delta drops below the theoretical value, a pre-set time must
elapse before activating the signal.
Hereunder is the table of multiplicative coefficients for the measured temperature delta:
Tolerance 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Coefficient 1.05 1.1 1.15 1.2 1.25 1.3 1.35 1.4 1.45 1.5

Efficiency control is excluded in dehumidification or heating mode and in any case in a chilled water unit.
6.20 Running-Stand-by
The system can be controlled more effectively due to the possibility of connecting a maximum of 16 units on the P-
LAN network.
A rotation system can be configured, in which a certain number of units are active (running) and others are in stand-
by. The following can be set in particular (only on the unit with the pCO* board having a P-LAN=1 address):
All the rotation functions are only active if board no. 1 is ON and physically connected to the P-LAN. Otherwise, all
the other units will run as stand-alone, independently from one another.
During normal operation, when the set rotation interval elapses (if in hours or at a fixed time every given number of
days), one of the active units switches OFF and one of the other units in stand-by switches ON. If rotation is
automatic, the activated unit with the lowest address switches OFF and the unit in stand-by with the highest address
switches ON (FIFO logic). If rotation is based on the operating hours, the unit with the highest number of operating
hours switches OFF (from those activated) and that with the lowest number of operating hours switches ON (from
those in stand by).
The units in stand-by can also be activated before normal rotation elapses, if the following events occur:
• A black-out occurs in one of the activated units or it is disconnected from the P-LAN, or it is set to OFF via a

• One of the activated units signals a SERIOUS alarm.

7 INPUT AND OUTPUT TABLE
The controller manages the unit via its inputs and outputs.
Various input and output configurations can be selected between Medium (M) and Large (L) boards, according to the
type of complexity of the unit to be controlled.
Direct expansion (DE) as well as chilled water (CW) air-conditioning cabinets can be controlled. The programme
recognises the type and size of the board upon start-up and consequently prepares the inputs and outputs. The
multiple names (xxx / xxx / …) indicate the various purposes for which an input or output can be used; the selection
is made via the parameters in the Manufacturer mask section.
