switch input. Inputs 3, 5, 8, and 9 on plug J5 can be
hard-wired to command the unit’s occupancy. The
Occupancy Contact point show the status as on or off, on
is occupied and off is unoccupied.
Indoor (Supply) Fan
The indoor fan can be configured to operate in three
different manors. The configuration point Fan Mode
determines how the fan will run. The fan will always be
disabled if a fire shutdown or safety chain alarm is active.
A valid space temperature and supply air temperature
must be available for the fan to operate. There is a unit
start delay in effect when the unit is transitioning from
unoccupied to occupied. The following describes specific
fan operation based on the Fan Mode configuration value.
Auto
When Fan Mode is set to Auto, RTU Open will cycle the
fan on and off based on the demand for heating, cooling,
and dehumidification. There is a configurable fan off
delay that is upheld before shutting the fan off after
conditioning has ended.
Continuous
When Fan Mode is set to Continuous, RTU Open will
cycle the fan based on occupancy. The fan will run
continuously whenever the unit is occupied and operate in
the auto mode during the unoccupied period.
Always On
When Fan Mode is set to Always On, RTU Open will run
the fan all the time regardless of occupancy or demand.
Fan Off Delay
A Fan Off Delay allows the supply fan to continue
operating after heating or cooling stops. If the following
alarms are active, the fan turns off immediately, regardless
of the occupancy state or demand:
S Fire Shutdown
S Safety Chain
S Supply Air Temp Sensor alarm
The RTU Open does not include smoke--control
functions such as smoke--purge, zone--pressurization, or
smoke--ventilation.
Indoor (Supply) Fan Status
The RTU Open has an optional Supply Fan Status input to
provide proof of airflow. If this is enabled, the point will
look for a contact change whenever the Supply Fan Relay
is on. If it is not enabled then it will always be the same
state as the Supply Fan Relay. The cooling, economizer,
heating, dehumidification, CO
2
and power exhaust
routines will use this input point for fan status.
Cooling
The compressor outputs are controlled by the Cooling
Control PID Loop and Cooling Stages Capacity algorithm.
They will be used to calculate the desired number of stages
needed to satisfy the space by comparing the Space
Temperature (SPT) to the Occupied Cool Setpoint plus the
T56 slider offset when occupied and the Unoccupied Cool
Setpoint (UCSP) plus the T56 slider offset, if unoccupied.
The economizer, if available, will be used for cooling in
addition to the compressors. The following conditions must
be true in order for this algorithm to run:
S Outdoor Air Temperature, if valid, is greater than the
Cooling Lockout Temperature setpoint.
S Indoor Fan is ON.
S Heat mode has not been active for 5 minutes.
S If occupied and the SPT > (occupied cool setpoint plus
the T56 slider offset).
S Space Temperature and supply air temperature values
are valid.
S If it is unoccupied and the SPT > (unoccupied cool
setpoint plus the T56 slider offset).
S Economizer is unavailable, or if the Economizer is active,
mechanical cooling is available if the economizer is open
> 90% for at least 7.5 minutes, the SAT > [Minimum
Cooling SAT + 5_F(2.7_C)] and SPT > [Effective
Cooling Setpoint + 0.5_F (0.27_C)].
If all of the above conditions are met, the controller uses a
PID logic loop to energize or de--energize compressors to
satisfy the cooling demand.
There is a fixed 3--minute minimum on time and a
5--minute off time for each compressor output.
Any time the compressors are running the RTU Open will
stage down the compressors if the SAT becomes less than
the cooling low supply air setpoint. After a compressor is
staged off, it may be started again after a normal
time--guard period and the supply air temperature has
increased above the low supply air setpoint.
S Cooling – Without humidity control [RH Control =
Disable] or an economizer [Economizer Exists = No],
the operation of the unit is as follows:
If OAT > Cooling Lockout Temperature (45_Fdef)and
SPT > cooling setpoint, then a PID will calculate the
required number of compressor cooling stages required
to satisfy the present space load conditions. After the
minimum compressor off time has expired, then the first
compressor stage will be started. The actual number of
active compressor stages [Active Compressor Stages] is
displayed in the maintenance section.
As the compressor stage(s) operate, the controller monitors
the supply air temperature and compares the measured
value to the configured supply air temperature setpoint
[Stage 1 SAT Stpt if Active Compressor Stages = 1, see
the table below].
The fan will begin to operate (or currently be operating)
at the configured minimum fan speed [Min VFD
Output]. If the measured SAT falls below this setpoint, a
PID will calculate the required VFD output to increase
the fan speed to obtain the configured Stage “X” SAT
Stpt depending on the actual number of the operating
stage (1--3). The fan speed can increase as required but
not greater than the configured maximum speed [Max
VFD Output].
