This Bard Free Cooling Unit System is composed of
FUSION-TEC wall-mounted air conditioners matched
with an LV1000 lead/lag controller. The wall mounts
are specifically engineered for telecom/motor control
center rooms.
NOTE: The LV1000 lead/lag controller and FUSION-
TEC wall-mount units are designed specifically
to work together. The controller cannot run
other Bard models or other brands of systems,
nor can other controllers run the FUSION-TEC
wall-mount units. They are a complete system,
and must be used together.
Wall-Mount Air Conditioner Units
The FUSION-TEC units operate on VAC power.
units will supply 100% of rated cooling airflow in free
cooling mode with ability to exhaust the same amount
through the unit itself without any additional relief
openings in the shelter.
Each of these units are fully charged with refrigerant
and have optional auxiliary heat.
The
General
The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed
by trained, experienced service and installation
technicians.
The refrigerant system is completely assembled and

OPERATION
Unit On/Off
The wall unit can be turned on and off from the TECEYE. Turning the unit off with the following instructions
will disable heating and cooling operation but may not
disable the blower. The blower may continue to run
if the unit or the LV1000 have the continuous blower
option enabled.
NOTE: Blower will run if the unit is in stand alone
mode.
To turn the unit on or off:
1. Press MENU key to go to the Main Menu screen.
2. Press UP or DOWN keys and ENTER key to enter
USER password 2000.
3. Press UP or DOWN keys to scroll to On/Off; press
ENTER key.
4. Press UP or DOWN keys to change value from On
to Off or from Off to On.
5. Press ESCAPE key several times to return to Main
Menu screen.
The wall unit may also be turned off by certain alarms
such as the smoke alarm input on the wall unit board
or the return air temperature sensor failure when not
connected to the LV1000.
Alarm Adjustment
Acknowledging/Clearing Alarms
Alarm conditions activate a red LED indicator that
backlights the ALARM function key. As an option, an
alarm condition may also be enunciated by an audible
alarm signal. An alarm is acknowledged by pressing the
ALARM key. This calls up alarm display screen(s) that
provide a text message detailing the alarm condition(s).
After an alarm condition is corrected, the alarm can be
cleared by pressing the ALARM key for 3 seconds.
To clear all alarms, navigate to the end of the alarm list
to the screen shown in Figure 5.
Stand Alone Mode
With the AC breakers turned on, each FUSION-TEC
wall-mount unit has the capability to run without the
LV1000 controller attached—this feature is called
stand alone or orphan mode. This keeps the shelter
between 60°F and 79°F (factory default settings) by
the use of the factory-installed return air sensor in
each wall-mount unit. In stand-alone mode, the wall
unit uses a continuous blower setting to circulate room
air into the return air inlet and uses the return air
temperature sensor to control room temperature.
The wall-mount unit can be turned on and off with
the TEC-EYE hand-held diagnostic tool. When ON is
chosen, the wall unit will heat or cool. The blower will
continue to run when OFF is chosen. If the wall unit is
turned OFF by the TEC-EYE while in stand alone mode
and power is interrupted, when repowered the blower
will not run until the wall unit is turned back ON by the
TEC-EYE (see Unit On/Off).
To change default setpoints, refer to Setpoints on page
7.
During installation, the ability to run in stand alone
mode allows deactivation of one of the existing, older
wall-mount units, while keeping the shelter cool
with the other unit still operating. Once the first of
the Bard FUSION-TEC wall-mount units is installed,
orphan mode can be enabled early in the installation—
keeping the climate inside the shelter stable and
the installers comfortable while the remainder of the
older equipment is removed and the remaining Bard
FUSION-TEC wall-mount units and LV1000 controller
are installed.
Additionally, should any or all of the FUSION-TEC
wall-mount units lose communication with the LV1000
controller (such as during maintenance), they will
continue to serve the shelter’s needs until a repair can
be made.
Temperature/Humidity Control
FIGURE 5
Clearing All Alarms
Temperature/Humidity Control Components
Return Air Temperature Sensor
The unit is equipped with a return air temperature
sensor to monitor the space temperature when the unit
is in stand alone mode. The return air sensor is located
in the upper part of the return opening in such a way
that it is exposed to the entering airstream. An alarm
signal will be sent to the LV controller if the return air
temperature sensor is disconnected. The temperature is
measured with a 10k ohm NTC thermistor.
This sensor can be verified and adjusted by:
1. Press MENU key to go to the Main Menu screen.
Manual 2100-670

2. Press UP or DOWN keys and ENTER key to enter
TECHNICIAN password 1313.
3. Press UP or DOWN keys to scroll to I/O Config;
press ENTER key.
4. Press UP or DOWN keys to scroll to Return Air Sensor (C5); press ENTER key.
5. Verify the measurement displayed on screen is
accurate (see Figure 6).
6. If the measurement needs to be adjusted, apply an
offset value by pressing ENTER to scroll to Offset.
7. Press UP or DOWN keys to adjust the offset.
8. The update will not take effect until the cursor is
moved out of the Offset parameter.
9. Once adjusted, press the ESCAPE key several
times to return to Main Menu screen.
FIGURE 6
Adjusting Return Air Sensor
Return Air Temperature Alarm
When the return air temperature sensor value is out of
range (-41.0 to 303.0°F), the controller will generate
a sensor failure alarm to indicate the sensor is not
working properly.
This alarm is fixed and cannot be adjusted.
Temperature/Humidity Control Operation
The unit utilizes a PID control loop for space control.
This control will compare the space temperature to
the space setpoint. Based on how far away from the
setpoint the temperature is, the loop will output a
cooling or heating capacity number between 0 and
100%. The unit will then take all of the available
cooling methods and distribute them evenly across the
0-100% range. The stages are then brought on as the
heating or cooling capacity reaches the percentage that
brings the stages on or off. There are separate setpoints
for cooling and heating.
To change or view the unit setpoint:
1. From the Status screen, press UP or DOWN key
until Quick Menu displays Setpoints icon ( ).
Press ENTER key.
2. Press ENTER key to scroll to CoolSetpoint or Heat Setpoint (see Figure 4 on page 8).
3. Press UP or DOWN keys to change the value to
desired heating and/or cooling setpoint.
Cooling
The unit is equipped with 1 stage of freecooling and 2
stages of mechanical cooling (compressor and solenoid)
for a total of 3 cooling stages (see Figure 7).
