The 48/50Z units contain the factory-installed ComfortLink
control system which provides full system management. The
main base board (MBB) stores hundreds of unit configuration
settings and 8 time of day schedules. The MBB also performs
self diagnostic tests at unit start-up, monitors the operation of
the unit, and provides alarms and alert information. The system
also contains other optional boards that are connected to the
MBB through the Local Equipment Network (LEN). Information on system operation and status are sent to the MBB processor by various sensors and optional board that are located at
the unit and in the conditioned space. Access to the unit controls for configuration, set point selection, schedule creation,
and service can be done through a unit-mounted scrolling marquee. Access can also be done through the Carrier Comfort
Network
®
using ComfortVIEW™ software, Network Service
Tool, or the accessory Navigator™ device.
The ComfortLink system controls all aspects of the rooftop.
It controls the supply-fan motor, compressors, and economizers
to maintain the proper temperature conditions. The controls
also cycle condenser fans to maintain suitable head pressure.
All VAV units can be equipped with optional IGV (inlet guide
vanes) or VFD (variable frequency drive) for supply duct pressure control. The ComfortLink™ controls can directly control
the speed of the VFD based on a static pressure sensor input. In
addition the ComfortLink controls can adjust (but not control
on CV and non-modulating power exhaust units) the building
pressure using multiple power exhaust fans controlled from
damper position or from a building pressure sensor. The control
safeties are continuously monitored to prevent the unit from
operating under abnormal conditions. Sensors include suction
pressure transducers and saturated discharge pressure transducers which allow for display of the unit’s operational pressures.
A scheduling function, programmed by the user, controls
the unit occupied/unoccupied schedule. Up to 8 different
schedules can be programmed.
The controls also allow the service person to operate a quick
test so that all the controlled components can be checked for
proper operation.
Conventions Used in This Manual — The follow-
ing conventions for discussing configuration points for the local display (scrolling marquee or Navigator™ accessory) will
be used in this manual.
Point names will be written with the Mode name first, then
any submodes, then the point name, each separated by an
arrow symbol (→). Names will also be shown in bold and
italics. As an example, the IAQ Economizer Override Position
which is located in the Configuration mode, Indoor Air Quality
Configuration sub-mode, and the Air Quality Set Points
sub-sub-mode, would be written as Configuration
IAQ→IAQ.SP→IQ.O.P.
This path name will show the user how to navigate through
the local display to reach the desired configuration. The user
would scroll through the modes and submodes using the
UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW keys. The arrow symbol
in the path name represents pressing ENTER to move into the
next level of the menu structure.
When a value is included as part of the path name, it will be
shown at the end of the path name after an equals sign. If the
value represents a configuration setting, an explanation will be
shown in parenthesis after the value. As an example, Configu-
ration
→
IAQ→AQ.CF→IQ.AC= 1 (IAQ Analog Input).
Pressing the ESCAPE and ENTER keys simultaneously
will scroll an expanded text description of the point name
across the display. The expanded description is shown in the
local display tables but will not be shown with the path names
in text.
The CCN point names are also referenced in the local
display tables for users configuring the unit with CCN software
→

instead of the local display. The CCN tables are located in
Appendix B of this manual.
BASIC CONTROL USAGE
ComfortLink™ Controls —
trols are a comprehensive unit-management system. The control system is easy to access, configure, diagnose and troubleshoot.
The controls are flexible, providing two types of constant
volume cooling control sequences, two variable air volume
cooling control sequences, and heating control sequences for
two-stage electric and gas systems, for multiple-stage gas heating, and hydronic heat in both Occupied and Unoccupied
schedule modes. This control also manages:
• VAV duct pressure (through optional VFD or inlet guide
vanes), with reset
• Building pressure through four different power exhaust
systems
• Return fan applications using fan tracking
• Condenser fan cycling for low ambient head pressure
control
• Dehumidification (with reheat) and humidifier sequences
• Space ventilation control, in Occupied and Unoccupied
periods, using CO
tilation defined by damper position or ventilation airflow
measurement
• Smoke control functions
• Occupancy schedules
• Occupancy or start/stop sequences based on third party
signals
• Alarm status and history and run time data
• Management of a complete unit service test sequence
System diagnostics are enhanced by the use of multiple
external sensors for air temperatures, air pressures and refrigerant pressures. Unit-mounted actuators provide digital feedback
data to the unit control.
The ComfortLink™ controller is fully communicating and
cable-ready for connection to the Carrier Comfort Network
(CCN) building management system. The control provides
high-speed communications for remote monitoring via the
Internet. Multiple 48/50Z Series units can be linked together
(and to other ComfortLink controller equipped units) using a
3-wire communication bus.
The ComfortLink control system is easy to access through
the use of a unit-mounted display module. There is no need to
bring a separate computer to this unit for start-up. Access to
control menus is simplified by the ability to quickly select from
11 menus. A scrolling readout provides detailed explanations
of control information. Only four, large, easy-to-use buttons are
required to maneuver through the entire controls menu. The
display readout is designed to be visible even in bright sunlight.
For added service flexibility, an accessory hand-held
Navigator™ module is also available. This portable device has
an extended communication cable that can be plugged into the
unit’s communication network either at the main control box or
at the opposite end of the unit, at a remote modular plug. The
Navigator display provides the same menu structure, control
access and display data as is available at the unit-mounted
scrolling marquee display.

Scrolling Marquee — This device is the keypad inter-
face used to access the control information, read sensor values,
and test the unit. The scrolling marquee is located in the main
control box and is standard on all units. The scrolling marquee
display is a 4-key, 4-character, 16-segment LED (light-emitting
diode) display module. The display also contains an Alarm Status LED. See Fig. 1. The display is easy to operate using

Through the scrolling marquee, the user can access all of the
inputs and outputs to check on their values and status, configure operating parameters plus evaluate the current decision status for operating modes. Because the 48/50Z Series units are
equipped with suction pressure and discharge pressure transducers, the scrolling marquee can also display refrigerant
circuit pressures typically obtained from service gages. The
control also includes an alarm history which can be accessed
from the display. In addition, through the scrolling marquee,
the user can access a built-in test routine that can be used at
start-up commissioning and to diagnose operational problems
®
with the unit.
Accessory Navigator™ Display — The accessory
hand-held Navigator display can be used with the 48/50Z
Series units. See Fig. 2. The Navigator display operates the
same way as the scrolling marquee device. The Navigator
display is plugged into the RJ-11 jack in the main control box
on the COMM board. The Navigator display can also be
plugged into the RJ-11 jack located on the unit corner post
located at the economizer end of the unit.

Operation — All units are shipped from the factory with
the scrolling marquee display, which is located in the main control box. See Fig. 1. In addition, the ComfortLink™ controls
also supports the use of the handheld Navigator™ display.
Both displays provide the user with an interface to the
ComfortLink control system. The displays have and ar-
row keys, an key and an key. These keys
are used to navigate through the different levels of the display
structure. The Navigator and the scrolling marquee operate in
the same manner, except that the Navigator display has multiple lines of display and the scrolling marquee has a single line.
All further discussions and examples in this document will be
based on the scrolling marquee display. See Table 2 for the
menu structure.
The four keys are used to navigate through the display
structure, which is organized in a tiered mode structure. If the
buttons have not been used for a period, the display will default
to the AUTO VIEW display category as shown under the RUN
STATUS category. To show the top-level display, press the
ESCAPE
andarrow keys to scroll through the top-level categories. These are listed in Appendix A and will be indicated on
the scrolling marquee by the LED next to each mode listed on
the face of the display.
When a specific mode or sub-mode is located, push the
ENTER
may be additional tiers. Continue to use the and keys
and the keys until the desired display item is found.
At any time, the user can move back a mode level by pressing
ESCAPE
the key. Once an item has been selected the display
will flash showing the item, followed by the item value and
then followed by the item units (if any).
Items in the Configuration and Service Test modes are
password protected. The display will flash PASS and WORD
when required. Use the and arrow keys to enter the
four digits of the password. The default password is 1111.
Pressing the and keys simultaneously
will scroll an expanded text description across the display indicating the full meaning of each display point. Pressing the
ESCAPE
(MODE LED level) will return the display to its default menu
of rotating AUTO VIEW display items. In addition, the
password will need to be entered again before changes can be
made.
Changing item values or testing outputs is accomplished in
the same manner. Locate and display the desired item. If the
display is in rotating auto-view, press the key to stop
the display at the desired item. Press the key again so
that the item value flashes. Use the arrow keys to change the
value of state of an item and press the key to accept
it. Press the key and the item, value or units display
will resume. Repeat the process as required for other items.
If the user needs to force a variable, follow the same process
as when editing a configuration parameter. A forced variable
will be displayed with a blinking “f” following its value. For
example, if supply fan requested (FA N. F) is forced, the display
shows “YESf”, where the “f” is blinking to signify a force on
the point. Remove the force by selecting the point that is forced

mode categories may not apply.
System Pilot™ Interface — The System Pilot inter-
face (33PILOT-01) is a component of the 3V™ system and
serves as a user-interface and configuration tool for all Carrier
communicating devices. The System Pilot interface can be
used to install and commission a 3V zoning system, linkage
compatible air source, universal controller, and all other devices operating on the Carrier communicating network.
Additionally, the System Pilot interface can serve as a wallmounted temperature sensor for space temperature measurement. The occupant can use the System Pilot interface to
change set points. A security feature is provided to limit access
of features for unauthorized users. See Fig. 3 for System Pilot
interface details.
CCN Tables and Display — In addition to the unit-
mounted scrolling marquee display, the user can also access the
same information through the CCN tables by using the Service
Tool or other CCN programs. Details on the CCN tables are
summarized in Appendix B. The variable names used for the
CCN tables and the scrolling marquee tables may be different
and more items are displayed in the CCN tables. As a reference, the CCN variable names are included in the scrolling
marquee tables and the scrolling marquee names are included
in the CCN tables in Appendix B.
GENERIC STATUS DISPLAY TABLE — The GENERICS
points table allows the service/installer the ability to create a
custom table in which up to 20 points from the 5 CCN
categories (Points, Config, Service-Config, Set Point, and
Maintenance) may be collected and displayed.
In the Service-Config table section, there is a table named
“generics”. This table contains placeholders for up to 20 CCN
point names and allows the user to decide which points are displayed in the GENERIC points table. Each one of these placeholders allows the input of an 8-character ASCII string. Go into
the Edit mode for the Service-Config table “generics” and enter
the CCN name for each point to be displayed in the custom
points table in the order they will be displayed. When done entering point names, download the table to the rooftop unit control.

Table 2 — Scrolling Marquee Menu Display Structure
IMPORTANT: The computer system software
(ComfortVIEW™, Service Tool, etc.) that is used to
interact with CCN controls always saves a template of
items it considers as static (e.g., limits, units, forcibility, 24-character text strings, and point names) after
the software uploads the tables from a control. Thereafter, the software is only concerned with run time
data like value and hardware/force status. With this in
mind, it is important that anytime a change is made to
the Service-Config table “generics” (which in turn
changes the points contained in the GENERIC point
table), that a complete new upload be performed. This
requires that any previous table database be
completely removed first. Failure to do this will not
allow the user to display the new points that have been
created and the software will have a different table
database than the unit control.
START-UP
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to start unit, even
momentarily, until all items on the Start-Up Checklist
(in installation instructions) and the following steps
have been completed.
Unit Preparation —
accordance with the installation instructions and applicable
codes.
Check that unit has been installed in
Unit Setup — Make sure that the economizer hood has
been installed and that the outdoor filters are properly installed.
Internal Wiring — Ensure that all electrical connections
in the control box are tightened as required. If the unit has
staged gas heat make sure that the LAT sensors have been
routed to the supply ducts as required.
Accessory Installation — Check to make sure that all
accessories including space thermostats and sensors have been
installed and wired as required by the instructions and unit
wiring diagrams.
Crankcase Heaters — Crankcase heaters are energized
as long as there is power to the unit, except when the compressors are running.
IMPORTANT: Unit power must be on for 24 hours
prior to start-up of compressors. Otherwise damage to
compressors may result.
Evaporator Fan — Fan belt and fixed pulleys are factory-
installed. See Tables 3-25 for fan performance. Remove tape
from fan pulley, and be sure that fans rotate in the proper
direction. See Tables 26-28 for motor limitations. See Table 29
for air quantity limits. Static pressure drop is shown in
Tables 30A-30C.
FIELD-SUPPLIED FAN DRIVES — Supply fan and power
exhaust fan drives are fixed-pitch, non-adjustable selections, for
maximum reliability and long belt life. If the factory drive sets
must be changed to obtain other fan speeds, consult the nearest
Browning Manufacturing Co. sales office with the required new
wheel speed and the data from Physical Data and Supply Fan
Drive Data tables (center distances, motor and fan shaft diameters, motor horsepower) in Installation Instructions for a modified drive set selection. For minor speed changes, the fan sheave
size should be changed. (Do not reduce the size of the motor
sheave; this will result in reduced belt horsepower ratings and
reduced belt life.) See page 128 for belt installation procedure.
Controls — Use the following steps for the controls:
1. Set any control configurations that are required (fieldinstalled accessories, etc.). The unit is factory configured
for all appropriate factory-installed options.
2. Enter unit set points. The unit is shipped with the set point
default values. If a different set point is required, use the
scrolling marquee, Navigator display, ComfortVIEW™
software or Service Tool to change the configuration
values.
3. If the internal time schedules are going to be used, configure the Occupancy schedule.
4. Verify that the control time periods programmed meet
current requirements.
5. Start unit using Service Test mode to verify operation of
all major components.
6. If the unit is a VAV unit make sure to configure the static
pressure set point. To check out the VFD, use the VFD instructions shipped with the unit.
Gas Heat — Verify gas pressure before turning on gas heat
as follows:
1. Turn off field-supplied manual gas stop, located external
to the unit.
2. Connect pressure gages to supply gas tap, located at fieldsupplied manual shutoff valves.
3. Connect pressure gages to manifold pressure tap on unit
gas valve.
4. Supply gas pressure must not exceed 13.5 in. wg. Check
pressure at field-supplied shut-off valve.
5. Turn on manual gas stop and initiate a heating demand.
Jumper R to W1 in the control box to initiate heat.
6. Use the Service Test procedure to verify heat operation.
7. After the unit has run for several minutes, verify that
incoming pressure is 5.0 in. wg or greater and that the
manifold pressure is 3.5 in wg. If manifold pressure must
be adjusted refer to Gas Valve Adjustment section.

Programming Operating Schedules — The
ComfortLink™ controls will accommodate up to eight different schedules (Periods 1 through 8), and each schedule is
assigned to the desired days of the week. Each schedule
includes an occupied on and off time. As an example, to set an
occupied schedule for 8 AM to 5 PM for Monday through
Friday, the user would set days Monday through Friday to ON
for Period 1. Then the user would configure the Period 1
Occupied From point to 08:00 and the Period 1 Occupied To
point to 17:00. To create a different weekend schedule, the user
would use Period 2 and set days Saturday and Sunday to ON
with the desired Occupied On and Off times.
NOTE: By default, the time schedule periods are programmed
for 24 hours of occupied operation.
To create a schedule, perform the following procedure:
1. Scroll to the Configuration mode, and select CCN
CONFIGURATION (CCN). Scroll down to the Schedule
Number (Configuration
password protection has been enabled, the user will be
prompted to enter the password before any new data is
accepted. SCH.N has a range of 0 to 99. The default value is 1. A value of 0 is always occupied, and the unit will
control to its occupied set points. A value of 1 means the
unit will follow a local schedule, and a value of 65 to 99
means it will follow a CCN schedule. Schedules 2-64 are
not used as the control only supports one internal/local
schedule. If one of the 2-64 schedules is configured, then
the control will force the number back to 1. Make sure the
value is set to 1 to use a local schedule.
2. Enter the Time Clock mode. Scroll down to the LOCAL
TIME SCHEDULE (SCH.L) sub-mode, and press
ENTER. Period 1 (PER.1) will be displayed.
3. Scroll down to the MON point. This point indicates if
schedule 1 applies to Monday. Use the ENTER command
to go into Edit mode, and use the UP or DOWN key to
change the display to YES or NO. Scroll down through
the rest of the days and apply schedule 1 where desired.
The schedule can also be applied to a holiday.
4. Configure the beginning of the occupied time period for

SERVICE TEST
General —
ture, which is intended to allow a service person to force the
unit into different modes of operation. To use this feature, enter
the Service Test category on the local display and place the unit
into the test mode by changing Service Test
to ON. The display will prompt for the password before allowing any change. The deffault password is 1111. Once the unit
enters the Service Test mode, the unit will shut down all current
modes.
TEST — The TEST command turns the unit off (hard stop)
and allows the unit to be put in a manual control mode.
STOP — The STOP command completely disables the unit
(all outputs turn off immediately). Once in this mode, nothing
can override the unit to turn it on. The controller will ignore all
inputs and commands.
S.STP — Setting Soft Stop to YES turns the unit off in an
orderly way, honoring any timeguards currently in effect.
FAN. F — By turning the FAN FORCE on, the supply fan is
turned on and will operate as it normally would, controlling
duct static pressure on VAV applications or just energizing the
fan on CV applications. To remove the force, press ENTER
and then press the UP and DOWN arrows simultaneously.
The remaining categories: INDP, FANS, ACT.C, COOL,
and HEAT are sub-menus with separate items and functions.

Service Test Mode Logic — Operation in the Service
Test mode is sub-menu specific except for the INDP submenu. Leaving the sub-menu while a test is being performed
and attempting to start a different test in the new sub-menu will
cause the previous test to terminate. When this happens, the
new request will be delayed for 5 seconds. For example, if
compressors were turned on under the COOL sub-menu, any
attempt to turn on heating stages within the HEAT sub-menu
would immediately turn off the compressors and 5 seconds later the controller would honor the requested heat stages.
However, it is important to note that the user can leave a
Service Test mode to view any of the local display menus (Run
Status, Temperatures, Pressures, Setpoints, Inputs, Outputs,
Configuration, Time Clock, Operating Modes, and Alarms)
and the control will remain in the Service Test mode.
Independent Outputs — The INDP sub-menu items
can be turned on and off regardless of the other category states.
For example, the humidifier relay or remote alarm/auxiliary relay can be forced on in the INDP sub-menu and will remain on
if compressor stages were requested in the COOL sub-menu.
Fans — Upon entering the FA NS sub-menu, the user will be
able to enact either a manual or automatic style of test operation. The first item in the sub-menu, Fan Test Mode Automatic

figured static pressure or building pressure control to begin as
in the application run mode. During this automatic mode, it is
possible to manually control condenser fans A and B.
If Fan Test Mode Automatic (Service TestF. M O D ), is set to NO, then the user will have individual con-
trol over duct static pressure (VFD speed or IGV position),
building pressure and condenser fan control. Additionally, the
controller will protect the system from developing too much
static pressure. If the static pressure during manual control
rises above 3 in. wg or if the Static Pressure Set Point
(Setpoints

FANS menu will be cleared back to their default OFF states.

Actuators — In the ACT.C sub-menu, it will be possible to
control and calibrate actuators. Calibration is a mode in which
the actuator moves from 0% to the point at which the actuator
stalls, and it will then use this angular travel range as its
“control angle”. It will also be possible to view the “control
angle” adopted by the actuator after a calibration.
Within this sub-menu, the user may calibrate and control
economizer actuators 1 and 2, the inlet guide vane actuator, the
building pressure actuators 1 and 2, the hydronic heating coil
actuator, and the humidifier steam valve control actuator.
NOTE: Once a calibration has been started, the user cannot
exit test mode or select any other test mode operation until
complete.
Cooling — The cooling sub-menu offers many different
service tests.

the cooling test mode at all times, regardless if econo-
mizer cooling is suitable or not.
→
Cool→E.POS (Econo Damper Command
• Service Test
Upon entering the cooling sub-menu, the static pressure
control item will default to the unit's static pressure set
point. Thereafter, as mechanical cooling commences and
the fan starts, the static pressure can be manually
adjusted during the cool mode without affecting the configured set point for normal runtime operation. By
adjusting the static pressure set point, the user can
increase or decrease the supply airflow. Do not use a
static pressure that will exceed the system limits.
• Service Test
If this item is set to a non-zero value, the current
assigned compression stage for this unit will be selected
and enacted. Thereafter, the individual compressor and
unloaders items will be “read-only” and reflect the current staging state. In addition, this item will automatically clamp the cooling stages to its pre-configured
maximum.
• Service Test
This item may only be adjusted when the cooling stage
pattern request item is set to zero. If the request pattern is
zero, then the user may select whether the cooling stage
request is based on lead or lag staging.
• Manual relay control of individual compressors and
unloaders. If the cooling stage pattern request is set to
zero, the user will have the ability to manually control
compressors and unloaders. If the user energizes
mechanical cooling, the supply fan and the outdoor fans
will be started automatically. During mechanical cooling,
the unit will protect itself. Compressor diagnostics are
active, monitoring for high discharge pressure, low suction pressure, etc.

Heating — If unit has a thermostat connected (C.TYP = 3
or 4), install the RED jumper wires between TB202, terminals
R (1), W2 (3) and W1 (4). Terminal block TB202 is located in
the unit control box. Remember to disconnect these jumpers
when Test Mode is completed. The Heat Test Mode sub-menu
will offer automatic fan start-up if not a gas fired heat unit. On
gas heat units, the IGC feedback from the gas control units will
bring the fan on as required.
Within this sub-menu, control of the following is possible:
• Service Test
When this item is non-zero, the currently configured heat
type will energize the corresponding heat relay pattern
that reflects the requested stage. In addition the upper
limit will be clamped to reflect the maximum configured
number of stages. When non-zero, the heat relays will be
“read-only” and reflect the currently selected pattern.

able to manually control the positioning of the actuator
which controls hot water (0 to 100%).
NOTE: When service test has been completed, if unit has a
thermostat connected (C.TYP = 3 or 4), remove the RED
jumper wires at TB202, terminals R (1), W2 (3) and W1 (4).
Terminal block TB202 is located in the unit control box. Store
these jumpers in the unit control box for future use.

With RM.CF set to 1, no time schedules are followed and
the unit follows the remote switch only in determining the state
of occupancy.
With RM.CF set to 2, the remote switch can be used to shut
down and disable the unit, while still honoring timeguards on
compressors. Time schedules, internal or external, may be run
simultaneously with this configuration.
With RM.CF set to 3, the remote input may override an
unoccupied state and force the control to go occupied mode. As
with the start/stop configuration, an internal or external time
schedule may continue to control occupancy when the switch
is not in effect.

Economizer/Outdoor Air Damper Control —
There are multiple methods for externally controlling the economizer damper.
IAQ DISCRETE INPUT CONFIGURATION — The IAQ

CEM module (optional) to be installed and an interface to a
switch input at TB204-11 and TB204-12. The state of the input

open the input will read LOW. When the switch is closed, the
input will read HIGH. Setting IAQ.L to CLSE (closed) means
that when the switch is closed the input will read LOW, and
therefore, when the switch is open the switch will read HIGH.

= 3 (4 to 20 mA Damper Control) — This configuration will provide full 4 to 20 mA remotely controlled analog input for economizer minimum damper position. The 4 to 20 mA
signal is connected to terminals TB12 and TB11. The input is
processed as 4 mA = 0% and 20 mA = 100%, thereby giving
complete range control of the effective minimum position.
The economizer sequences can be disabled by removing the
enthalpy switch input at TB201-4 and not enabling any other
economizer changeover sequence at ConfigurationECON→E.SEL. Complete control of the economizer damper
position is then possible by using a 4 to 20 mA economizer
minimum position control or a 0 to 10 kilo-ohm 0 to 100%
economizer minimum position control via configuration decisions at Configuration
To disable the standard enthalpy control input function,
remove the enthalpy switch input connection at TB201-4 and
provide a jumper from TB201-3 to TB201-4 (see wiring
diagrams in Major System Components section on page 102).
IQ.A.C

HVAC MODES (Operating Mode
→
HVAC) — The HVAC
mode is dependant on the system mode to allow it to further
determine the operational state of the rooftop unit. The actual
determination of an HVAC mode is based on a hierarchal
decision making process whereby certain overrides may interfere with normal temperature/humidity control. The decision
making process that determines the HVAC mode is shown in
Fig. 4 and Appendix E.
Each HVAC mode is described below. The HVAC mode
number is shown in the parenthesis after the mode.
HVAC Mode — OFF (01)
— The unit is off and no operating
modes are active.
HVAC Mode — STARTING UP (02)
— The unit is transi-
tioning from the OFF mode to a different mode.
HVAC Mode — SHUTTING DOWN (03)
— The unit is
transitioning from a mode to the OFF mode.
HVAC Mode — DISABLED (04)
— The unit is shut down
due to a software command disable through the scrolling marquee, a CCN emergency stop command, a service test end, or a
control-type change delay.
HVAC Mode — SOFTSTOP REQUEST (05)
— The unit is
off due to a soft stop request from the control.
HVAC Mode — REM SW.DISABLE (06)
— The unit is off
due to the remote switch.
HVAC Mode — COMP.STUCK ON (07)
— The unit is shut
down because there is an indication that a compressor is running even though it has been commanded off.
HVAC Mode — TEST (08)
— The unit is in the self test
mode which is entered through the Service Test menu.

HVAC Mode — VENT (09)
mode where no heating or cooling is required and outside air is
being delivered to the space to control IAQ levels.
HVAC Mode — HIGH COOL (10)

HVAC Mode — LOW COOL (11)
ing mode where a low cooling demand is required.
HVAC Mode — UNOCC. FREE COOL (12)
mode the unit will operate in cooling but will be using the
economizer for free cooling. Entering this mode will depend on
the status of the outside air. The unit can be configured for outside air changeover, differential dry bulb changeover, outside
air enthalpy changeover, differential enthalpy changeover, or a

Unit Configuration Submenu — The UNIT sub-
menu under the Configuration mode of the local display
contains general unit configuration items. This section will
define all of these configurations here for easy reference. The
sub-menu which contains these configurations is located at the
local display under Configuration
Machine Control Type (
fines the technique and control source responsible for selecting
a cooling, heating, or vent mode and in determining the method
by which compressors are staged. The control types are:
• C.TYP = 1 (VAV-RAT) and C.TYP = 2 ( VAV- S PT )
Both of these configurations refer to standard VAV opera-
tion. If the control is occupied, the supply fan is run
continuously and return-air temperature will be used in the
determination of the selection of a cooling mode. VAV-SPT
differs from VAV-RAT only in that during the unoccupied
period, space temperature will be used instead of return-air
temperature to start the fan for 10 minutes to establish an
accurate return-air temperature before the return-air temperature is allowed to call out any mode.
• C.TYP = 3 (TSTAT – MULTI)
This configuration will force the control to monitor the ther-
mostat inputs to make a determination of mode. Unlike
traditional 2-stage thermostat control, the unit is allowed to
use multiple stages of cooling control and perform VAVtype operation. The control will be able to call out a LOW
COOL or a HIGH COOL mode and maintain a low or high
cool supply air set point.
• C.TYP = 4 (TSTAT- 2 STG)
This configuration will force the control to monitor the ther-
mostat inputs to make a determination of mode and allow
only 2 stages of control for both heating and cooling.
• C.TYP = 5 (SPT – MULTI)
This configuration will force the control to monitor a space
temperature sensor to make a determination of mode.
Unlike traditional 2-stage space temperature control, the
unit is allowed to use multiple stages of cooling control and
perform VAV-type operation. The control will be able to call
out a LOW COOL or a HIGH COOL mode and maintain a
low or high cool supply air set point.
• C.TYP = 6 (SPT- 2 STG)
This configuration will force the control to monitor the
space temperature sensor to make a determination of mode
and allow 2 stages of control for both heating and cooling.
Fan Mode (CV.FN) — The Fan Mode configuration can be
used for machine control types (Configuration
→
UNIT→C.TYP) 3, 4, 5, and 6. The Fan Mode variable
establishes the operating sequence for the supply fan during
occupied periods. When set to 1 (Continuous), the fan will
operate continuously during occupied periods. When set to 0
(Automatic), the fan will run only during a heating or cooling
mode.
Remote Switch Config (
RM.CF) — The remote switch input
is connected to TB201 terminals 1 and 2. This switch can be
used for several remote control functions. Please refer to the
Remote Control Switch Input section for details on its use and
operation.
CEM Module Installed (
CEM) — This configuration instructs
the control to communicate with the controls expansion module
(CEM) over the local equipment network (LEN) when set to
Yes. When the unit is configured for certain sensors and configurations, this option will be set to Yes automatically.

Temperature Compensated Start Cooling Factor (
TCS.C) —
This factor is used in the equation of the Temperature Compensated Start Time Bias for cooling. Refer to the Temperature
Compensated Start section for more information. A setting of
0 minutes indicates Temperature Compensated Start in Cooling
is not permitted.
Temperature Compensated Start Cooling Factor
(TCS.H) —
This factor is used in the equation of the Temperature Compensated Start Time Bias for heating. Refer to the Temperature
Compensated Start section for more information. A setting of
0 minutes indicates Temperature Compensated Start in Heating
is not permitted.
Fan Fail Shuts Downs Unit (
SFS.S) — This configuration
will determine whether the unit should shut down on a supply
fan status fail or simply alert the condition and continue to run.
If set to YES, then the control will shut down the unit and send
out an alarm if supply fan status monitoring fails. If set to NO,
the control will not shut down the unit if supply fan status monitoring fails but the control will send out an alert.
Fan Status Monitoring (
SFS.M) — This configuration selects
the type of fan status monitoring to be performed.
0 - NONE — No switch or monitoring
1 - SWITCH — Use of the fan status switch
2 - SP RISE — Monitoring of the supply duct pressure.
VAV Unoccupied Fan Retry Time (
VAV.S) — Machine control types 1 and 2 (VAV-RAT,VAV-SPT) include a process for
sampling the return-air temperature during unoccupied periods
to prove a valid demand for heating or cooling before initiating
an unoccupied heating or cooling mode. If the sampling routine runs but concludes a valid demand condition does not exist, the sampling process will not be permitted for the period of
time defined by this configuration. Reducing this value allows
a more frequent re-sampling process. Setting this value to zero
will prevent any sampling sequence.
Unit Size (
SIZE) — There are several unit sizes (tons) for the
Z Series control. Make sure this configuration matches the size
called out by the model number of the unit. This is important as
the cooling stage tables are directly determined based on both
the SIZE and 50.HZ configurations.
44
50 Hertz Unit? (
50.HZ) — Some units are designed to run at
50 Hertz instead of 60 Hertz. Make sure this configuration
matches the frequency called out by the model number of the
unit. This is important as the cooling stage tables are directly
determined based on both the SIZE and 50.HZ configurations.
MAT Calc Config (
MAT.S) — This configuration gives the
user three options in the processing of the mixed-air temperature (MAT) calculation:
• MAT.S = 0
The control will not attempt to learn MAT over time. The
control will simply calculate MAT based on the position of
the economizer, outside and return air temperature, linearly.
• MAT.S = 1
The control will attempt to learn MAT over time. Any time
the system is in a vent mode and the economizer stays at a
particular position for long enough, MAT = EDT (evaporator discharge temperature). Using this, the control has an internal table whereby it can more closely determine the true
MAT value.
• MAT.S = 2
The control will stop learning and use whatever the control
has already learned. Using this setting infers that the control
has spent some time set to MAT.S = 1.
First set MAT.S = 1, then go into the Service Test mode.
Turn on the fan and open the economizer to a static position for
5 minutes. Move to several positions (20%,40%,60%,80%). It
is important that the difference between return and outside temperature be greater than 5 degrees. (The greater the delta, the
better.) When done, set MAT.S = 2 and the system has been
commissioned.
Reset MAT Table Entries? (
MAT.R) — This configuration
allows the user to reset the internally stored MAT learned configuration data back to the default values. The defaults are set
to a linear relationship between the economizer damper position and OAT and RAT in the calculation of MAT.
MAT Outside Air Position Default (
MAT.D) — This configuration is used to calculate MAT when the economizer option
is disabled. The configuration is adjustable from 0 to 100%
outside air. This defines the fixed ventilation position that will
be used to correctly calculate MAT.
Altitude……..In Feet: (
ALTI) — As the control does not include a barometric pressure sensor to define the calculation of
enthalpy and cfm, the control does include an altitude parameter which will serve to set up a default barometric pressure for
use with calculations. The effect of barometric pressure in
these calculations is not great, but could have an effect depending on the installed elevation of the unit. If the rooftop is
installed at a particularly high altitude and enthalpy or cfm are
being calculated, set this configuration to the current elevation
of the installed rooftop.
Start Up Delay Time (
DLAY) — This option inhibits the unit
from operating after a power reset. The configuration may be
adjusted from 0 to 900 seconds of delay.
Auxiliary Relay Configuration (
AUX.R) — This configuration allows the user to configure the function of the auxiliary
relay. The configuration can be set from 0 to 3. If AUX.R is set
to 0, the auxiliary relay will be energized during an alarm. The
relay can be used to turn on an indicator light or sound an alarm
in a mechanical room. If AUX.R is set to 1, the auxiliary relay
will energize when the controls determine dehumidification/reheat is needed. The relay would be wired to a third party dehumidification/reheat device and would energize the device when
needed. If AUX.R is set to 2, the auxiliary relay will energize
when the unit is in the occupied state. The relay could then be
used to control lighting or other functions that need to be on
during the occupied state. If AUX.R is set to 3, the auxiliary relay will energize when the supply fan is energized (and, if
equipped with a VFD, the VFD output is not 0%). The default
is 0.
Space Temp Sensor (
SPT.S) — If a space temperature sensor
is installed (T55/T56), enable this configuration.
Space Temp Offset Sensor (
SP.O.S) — If a T56 sensor is installed with the space temperature offset slider, enable this configuration.
Space Temp Offset Range (
SP.O.R) — If a space temperature offset sensor is installed, it is possible to configure the
range of the slider by adjusting this range configuration.
Space Air RH Sensor (
SRH.S) — If a space relative humidity
sensor is installed, enable this configuration.
Return RH Sensor (
RRH.S) — If a return air relative humidi-
ty sensor is installed, enable this configuration.
Filter Status Switch Enabled? (
FLT.S) — If a filter status
switch is installed, enable this configuration to begin the monitoring of the filter status input (Inputs
→
GEN.I→ FLT.S). See
the Dirty Filter Switch section for more details on installation
and operation.
Cooling Control — The Z Series ComfortLink™ con-
trols offer two basic control approaches to mechanical cooling:
2-stage cooling (CV) and multiple stages of cooling (VAV). In
addition, the ComfortLink control offers the ability to run
multiple stages of cooling for either a space temperature sensor
or thermostat by controlling the unit to either a low or high cool
supply air set point. The control type (ConfigurationUNIT→C.TYP) determines the selection of the type of cooling
control as well as the technique for selecting a cooling mode.
Unit staging tables are shown in Appendix C.
NOTE: Whether a unit has a VFD, inlet guide vanes, or a
supply fan installed for static pressure control has no effect on
configuration of the machine control type (C.TYP). No matter
what the control type, it is possible to run the unit in either CV
or VAV mode provided there are enough stages to accommodate lower air volumes for VAV operation. Refer to the section
on static pressure control on page 61 for information on how to
set up the unit for the type of supply fan control desired.

DEFAULTS
This configuration defines the technique and control source
responsible for selecting a cooling mode and in determining the
method by which compressors are staged. The control types
are:
• C.TYP = 1 (VAV-RAT) and C.TYP = 2 ( VAV- S PT )
Both of these configurations refer to standard VAV opera-
tion. If the control is occupied, the supply fan is run continu-
ously and return-air temperature will be used for both in the
determination of the selection of a cooling mode. VAV-SPT
differs from VAV-RAT only in that during the unoccupied
period, space temperature will be used instead of return-air
temperature to start the fan for ten minutes before the
return-air temperature is allowed to call out any mode.
• C.TYP = 3 (TSTAT – MULTI)
This configuration will force the control to monitor the ther-
mostat inputs to make a determination of mode. Unlike tra-
ditional 2-stage thermostat control, the unit is allowed to use
multiple stages of cooling control and perform VAV style
operation. The control will be able to call out a LOW
→

COOL or a HIGH COOL mode and maintain a low or high
cool supply air set point.
• C.TYP = 4 (TSTAT – 2 STG)
This configuration will force the control to monitor the ther-
mostat inputs to make a determination of mode.
• C.TYP = 5 (SPT – MULTI)
This configuration will force the control to monitor a space
temperature sensor to make a determination of mode. Unlike traditional 2-stage space temperature control, the unit is
allowed to use multiple stages of cooling control and perform VAV style operation. The control will be able to call
out a LOW COOL or a HIGH COOL mode and maintain a
low or high cool supply air set point.
• C.TYP = 6 (SPT – 2 STG)
This configuration will force the control to monitor the
space temperature sensor to make a determination of mode and
allow two stages of cooling.
MACHINE DEPENDENT CONFIGURATIONS — Some
configurations are linked to the physical unit and must not be
changed. The configurations are provided in case a field
replacement of a board occurs and the settings are not
preserved by the download process of the new software. The
following configurations apply to all machine control types
(C.TYP) except 4 and 6. These configurations are located at the
local display under Configuration
Unit Size (SIZE) — There are several unit sizes (tons) for the
Z Series control. Make sure this configuration matches the size
called out by the model number of the unit. This is important as
the cooling stage tables are directly determined based on both
the SIZE and 50.HZ configurations.
50 Hertz Unit? (
50.HZ) — Some units are designed to run at
50 Hertz instead of 60 Hertz. Make sure this configuration
matches the frequency called out by the model number of the
unit. This is important as the cooling stage tables are directly
determined based on both the SIZE and 50.HZ configurations.
SET POINTS — The set points for both cooling and heating
are located at the local display under Setpoints. See Table 35.
SUPPLY AIR RESET CONFIGURATION — Supply air
reset can be used to modify the current cooling supply air set
point. Supply air reset is applicable to control types, C.TYP =
1,2,3, and 5. The configurations for reset can be found at the
local display under Configuration
EDT Reset Configuration (

EDT.R. See Table 36.
RS.CF) — This configuration ap-
plies to several machine control types (Configuration

C.TYP = 1,2,3, and 5).
•0 = NO RESET
No supply air reset is in effect
•1 = SPT RESET
Space temperature will be used as the reset control variable
along with both RTIO and LIMT in the calculation of the
final amount of reset to be applied (Inputs

SA.S.R).
• 2 = RAT RESET
Return-air temperature will be used as the reset control variable along with both RTIO and LIMT in the calculation of
the final amount of reset to be applied (InputsSA.S.R).

• 3 = 3RD PARTY RESET
The reset value is determined by a 4 to 20 mA third party
input. An input of 4 mA would correspond to 0º F reset. An
input of 20 mA would correspond to 20º F reset. Configuring the control for this option will cause RES.S to become
enabled automatically with the CEM board. To avoid
alarms make sure the CEM board and third party input are
connected first before enabling this option.
Reset Ratio (
RTIO) — This configuration is used when
RS.CF is set to 1 or 2. For every degree that the controlling
temperature (space/return) falls below the occupied cooling set
point (OCSP), the calculated value of the supply air reset will
rise by the number of degrees as specified by this parameter.
Reset Limit (
LIMT) — This configuration is used when
RS.CF is set to 1 or 2. This configuration places a clamp on the
amount of supply air reset that can be applied.
EDT 4-20 mA Reset Input (
RES.S) — This configuration is
automatically enabled when Configuration→EDT.R
RS.CF is set to 3 (third party reset).
COOLING CONFIGURATION — Relevant configurations for
mechanical cooling are located at the local display under
Configuration
Capacity Threshold Adjust (
→
COOL. See Table 37.
Z.GN) — This configuration is
used for units using the “SumZ” algorithm for cooling capacity
control (Configuration
→
UNIT→C.TYP = 1, 2, 3 or 5). The
configuration affects the cycling rate of the cooling stages by
raising or lowering the threshold that demand must build to in
order to add or subtract a stage of cooling.
Normally this configuration should not require any tuning or
adjustment. If there is an application where the unit may be significantly oversized and there are indications of high compressor cycles then the Capacity Threshold Adjust (Z.GN) can be
used to adjust the overall logic gain. Normally this is set to 1.0,
but it can be adjusted from 0.5 to 4.0. As the value of Z.GN is
increased, the cycling of cooling stages will be slowed.
Compressor Lockout Temperature (
MC.LO) — This configuration is the outdoor air temperature setting below which
mechanical cooling is locked out.
Lead/Lag Operation? (
L.L.EN) — This configuration allows
for lead/lag compressor operation for the unit. If this configuration is set to Yes, every time cooling capacity drops to 0%, on
the next call for cooling, the control will start up the first
compressor on the circuit which did not start the previous
cooling cycle. If set to No, circuit A will always start first.
Motormaster Control? (
M.M.) — The condenser head pressure
control for the unit is managed directly by the ComfortLink™
controls. There is no physical motormaster device in the unit.
This configuration allows the head pressure control sequence to
permit additional cycling control of the condenser fans. Setting
this configuration to YES permits mechanical cooling operation
down to 0° F (–18 C) outdoor temperature. If this configuration
is set to NO, the mechanical cooling system is not suited for
operation below 35 F (1.8 C) outdoor temperature.
Head Pressure Set Point (
HPSP) — This is the head pressure
set point used by the ComfortLink controls during condenser
fan, head pressure control.
Enable Compressor A1 (
A1.EN) — This configuration is
used to disable the A1 compressor in case of failure.
Enable Compressor A2 (
A2.EN) — This configuration is
used to disable the A2 compressor in case of failure.
Enable Compressor B1 (
B1.EN) — This configuration is
used to disable the B1 compressor in case of failure.
Enable Compressor B2 (
B2.EN) — This configuration is
used to disable the B2 compressor in case of failure.
CSB A1 Feedback Alarm (
CS.A1) — This configuration is
used to enable or disable the compressor A1 feedback alarm
(105 ton size units only). This configuration must be enabled at
all times for 105 ton units.

Compressor A1 High Pressure Switch Trip (
HPS.A) — This
configuration is used when high-pressure switches are used.
This is true for all units except the 105 ton size units which
incorporate current sensor boards (CSB). In the case of a highpressure switch trip on compressor A1, the control will sample
the discharge pressure on circuit A and store this value minus
3 psig and attempt to catch this failure the next time before the
switch trips. The value is modifiable by the user but will still
get overriden if the control does not catch a high pressure
condition before the switch trips.
Compressor B1 High Pressure Switch Trip (
HPS.B) — This
configuration is used when high-pressure switches are used.
This is true for all units except the 105 ton size units which
incorporate current sensor boards (CSB). In the case of a
high-pressure switch trip on compressor B1, the control will
sample the discharge pressure on circuit B and store this value
minus 3 psig and attempt to catch this failure the next time
before the switch trips. The value is modifiable by the user but
will still get overriden if the control does not catch a high
pressure condition before the switch trips.
High SST Alert Delay Time (
H.SST) — This option allows
the low saturated suction temperature alert timing delay to be
adjusted.
COOL MODE SELECTION PROCESS — The Z Series
ComfortLink™ controls offer three distinct methods by which
they may select a cooling mode.
1. Thermostat (C.TYP=3 and 4): The thermostat does not
depend upon the state of occupancy or temperature and
the modes are called out directly by the discrete inputs
(Inputs
→
STAT→Y1 and Y2).
2. VAV cooling types (C.TYP=1 and 2) are called out
in the occupied period (Operating Modes
→
MODE
→
OCC=ON).
3. VAV cooling types (C.TYP=1 and 2) are called out in the
unoccupied period (Operating Modes
→
MODE
→
OCC=OFF). They are also used for space sensor control
types (C.TYP=5 and 6) in both the occupied and unoccupied periods.
This section is devoted to the process of cooling mode
determination for the three types outlined above.
47
VAV Cool Mode Selection during the Occupied Period
(C.TYP = 1,2 and Operating Modes→MODE→OCC =ON)
— There is no difference in the selection of a cooling mode for
either VAV-RAT or VAV-SPT in the occupied period. The actual
selection of a cool mode, for both control types, is based upon
the controlling return-air temperature (Te mp e ra t u re s
→
AIR.T→CTRL→R.TMP). Typically this is the same as the return air temperature thermistor (Te m pe r at u re s
→
AIR.T→ RAT)
except when under CCN Linkage.
VAV Occupied Cool Mode Evaluation Configuration — There
are VAV occupied cooling offsets under Setpoints.

Cool Mode Determination — If the machine control type
(Configuration
SPT) and the control is occupied (Operating Modes
→
UNIT→C.TYP) = 1 (VAV-RAT) or 2 (VAV-
→
MODE→OCC=ON), then the unit will not follow the occu-
pied cooling set point (OCSP). Instead, the control will follow
two offsets in the determination of an occupied VAV cooling
mode (Setpoints
→
V. C . O N and Setpoints→V. C . O F ), applying
them to the low-heat off trip point and comparing the resulting
temperature to the return-air temperature.
The Setpoints
Setpoints
→
→
V. C . O N (VAV cool mode on offset) and
V. C . O F (VAV cool mode off offset) offsets are
used in conjunction with the low heat mode off trip point to
determine when to bring cooling on and off and in enforcing a
true “vent” mode between heating and cooling. See Fig. 5. The
occupied cooling set point is not used in the determination of
the cool mode. The occupied cooling set point is used for supply air reset only.
The advantage of this offset technique is that the control can
safely enforce a vent mode without worrying about crossing set
points. Even more importantly, under CCN linkage, the
occupied heating set point may drift up and down and as such
this technique of using offsets ensures a guaranteed separation
in degrees F between the calling out of a heating or cooling
mode at all times.
NOTE: There is a sub-menu at the local display (Run Status
→
TRIP) that allows the user to see the exact trip points for
both the heating and cooling modes without having to calculate them. Refer to the Cool Mode Diagnostic Help section on
page 50 for more information.
To enter into a VAV Occupied Cool mode, the controlling
temperature must rise above [OHSP minus L.H.ON plus
L.H.OF plus V. C . O N ].
To exit out of a VAV Occupied Cool Mode, the controlling
temperature must fall below [OHSP minus L.H.ON plus

Fig. 5 — VAV Occupied Period Trip Logic
NOTE: With vent mode, it is possible to exit out of a cooling
mode during the occupied period if the return-air temperature
drops low enough. When supply-air temperature reset is not
configured, this capability will work to prevent over-cooling
the space during the occupied period.
Supply Air Set Point Control and the Staging of Compressors
— Once the control has determined that a cooling mode is in
effect, the cooling control point (Run Status
→
CL.C.P) is calculated and is based upon the supply air set
point (Setpoints
→
SASP) plus any supply air reset being
→
VIEW
applied (Inputs→RSET→SA.S.R).
Refer to the SumZ Cooling Algorithm section on page 50
for a discussion of how the Z Series ComfortLink™ controls
manage the staging of compressors to maintain supply-air
temperature.
VAV Cool Mode Selection during the Unoccupied Period
(C.TYP = 1,2; Operating Modes→MODE→OCC=OFF)
and Space Sensor Cool Mode Selection (C.TYP=5 & 6) —
The machine control types that utilize this technique of mode
selection are:
• C.TYP = 1 (VAV-RAT) in the unoccupied period
• C.TYP = 2 (VAV-SPT) in the unoccupied period
• C.TYP = 5 (SPT-MULTI) in both the occupied and
unoccupied period
• C.TYP = 6 (SPT- 2 STG) in both the occupied and
unoccupied period
These particular control types operate differently than the
VAV types in the occupied mode in that there is both a LOW
COOL and a HIGH COOL mode. For both of these modes, the
control offers two independent set points, Setpoints
(for LOW COOL mode) and Setpoints
→
SA.HI (for HIGH
→
SA.LO
COOL mode). The occupied and unoccupied cooling set points
can be found under Setpoints.

determines is whether the unit is in the occupied mode (OCC)
or is in the temperature compensated start mode (T. C. S T). If
the unit is occupied or in temperature compensated start mode,
the occupied cooling set point (OCSP) is used. For all other
modes, the unoccupied cooling set point (UCSP) is used. For
further discussion and simplification this will be referred to as
the “cooling set point.” See Fig. 6.
Demand Level Low Cool On Offset (L.C.ON) — This is the
cooling set point offset added to the cooling set point at which
point a Low Cool mode starts.
Demand Level High Cool On Offset (H.C.ON) — This is the
cooling set point offset added to the “cooling set point plus
L.C.ON” at which point a High Cool mode begins.
Demand Level Low Cool Off Offset (L.C.OF) — This is the
cooling set point offset subtracted from “cooling set point plus
L.C.ON” at which point a Low Cool mode ends.
NOTE: The “high cool end” trip point uses the “low cool off”
(L.C.OF) offset divided by 2.
To enter into a LOW COOL mode, the controlling tempera-
ture must rise above [the cooling set point plus L.C.ON.]
To enter into a HIGH COOL mode, the controlling temperature must rise above [the cooling set point plus L.C.ON plus
H.C.ON.]
To exit out of a LOW COOL mode, the controlling temperature must fall below [the cooling set point plus L.C.ON minus
L.C.OF.]
To exit out of a HIGH COOL mode, the controlling temperature must fall below [the cooling set point plus L.C.ON minus
L.C.OF/2.]
Comfort Trending — In addition to the set points and offsets
which determine the trip points for bringing on and bringing
off cool modes, there are 2 configurations which work to hold
off the transitioning from a low cool to a high cool mode if the
space is cooling down quickly enough. This technique is
referred to as comfort trending and the configurations of
interest are C.T.LV and C.T.TM.
Cool Trend Demand Level (C.T.LV) — This is the change in
demand that must occur within the time period specified by
C.T.TM in order to hold off a HIGH COOL mode regardless
of demand. This is not applicable to VAV control types
(C.TYP=1 and 2) in the occupied period. As long as a LOW
COOL mode is making progress in cooling the space, the control will hold off on the HIGH COOL mode. This is especially
true for the space sensor machine control types (C.TYP) = 5
and 6, because they may transition into the occupied mode and
see an immediate large cooling demand when the set points
change.
Co ol Tren d Time (C.T.TM) — This is the time period upon
which the cool trend demand level (C.T.LV) operates and may
hold off staging or a HIGH COOL mode. This is not applicable to VAV control types (C.TYP=1 and 2) in the occupied
period. See the Cool Trend Demand Level section for more
details.
Timeguards— In addition to the set points and offsets which
determine the trip points for bringing on and bringing off cool
modes there is a timeguard which enforces a time delay
between the transitioning from a low cool to a high cool mode.
This time delay is 8 minutes. There is a timeguard which
enforces a time delay between the transitioning from a heat
mode to a cool mode. This time delay is 5 minutes.
Supply Air Set Point Control — Once the control has deter-
mined that a cooling mode is in effect, the cooling control
point (Run Status
→
VIEW→CL.C.P) is calculated and is
based upon either Setpoints→SA.HI or Setpoints→SA.LO,
depending on whether a high or a low cooling mode is in
effect, respectively. In addition, if supply air reset is configured, it will also be added to the cooling control point.
Refer to the SumZ Cooling Algorithm section for a discussion of how the Z Series ComfortLink™ controls manage
supply-air temperature and the staging of compressors for these
control types.
C.TYP
= 3 and 4 (Thermostat Cool Mode Selection) —
When a thermostat type is selected, the decision making process involved in determining the mode is straightforward.
Upon energizing the Y1 input only, the unit HVAC mode will
be LOW COOL. Upon the energizing of both Y1 and Y2 inputs, the unit HVAC mode will be HIGH COOL. If just input
G is energized the unit HVAC mode will be VENT and the
supply fan will run.
Selecting the C.TYP = 3 (TSTAT – MULTI) control type
will cause the control to do the following:
• The control will read both the Configuration
→
UNIT
→
SIZE and Configuration→UNIT→50.HZ configuration parameters to determine the number of cooling
stages and the pattern for each stage.
• An HVAC mode equal to LOW COOL will cause the
unit to select the Setpoints
→
SA.LO set point to control
to. An HVAC mode equal to HIGH COOL will cause the
unit to select the Setpoints
→
SA.HI set point to control
to. Supply air reset (if configured) will be added to either
the low or high cool set point.
• The control will utilize the SumZ cooling algorithm and
control cooling to a supply air set point. See the section
for the SumZ Cooling Algorithm section for information
on controlling to a supply air set point and compressor
staging.
Selecting the C.TYP = 4 (TSTAT – 2 STG) control type
means that only two stages of cooling will be used. An HVAC
mode of LOW COOL will energize one circuit and an HVAC
mode of HIGH COOL will energize both circuits provided the
economizer is not able to provide adequate free cooling. Refer
to the section on Economizer Integration with Mechanical
Cooling for more information.

COOL MODE DIAGNOSTIC HELP — To quickly determine the current trip points for the cooling modes, the Run
Status sub-menu at the local display allows the user to view the
calculated start and stop points for both the cooling and heating
trip points. The following sub-menu can be found at the local
display under Run Status
The controlling temperature is “TEMP” and is in the middle
of the table for easy reference. The HVAC mode can also be
viewed at the bottom of the table.
SUMZ COOLING ALGORITHM — The SumZ cooling algorithm is an adaptive PID (proportional, integral, derivative)
which is used by the control whenever more than 2 stages of
cooling are present (C.TYP = 1,2,3, and 5). This section will describe its operation and define the pertinent parameters. It is generally not necessary to modify parameters in this section. The
information is presented primarily for reference and may be
helpful for troubleshooting complex operational problems.
The only configuration parameter for the SumZ algorithm is
located at the local display under Configuration
→
COOL→Z.GN. See Table 37.
Capacity Threshold Adjust (
Z.GN) — This configuration is
used on units using the “SumZ” algorithm for cooling capacity
control (Configuration
→
UNIT→C.TYP = 1, 2, 3 and 5). It
affects the cycling rate of the cooling stages by raising or
lowering the threshold that capacity must build to in order to
add or subtract a stage of cooling.
The cooling algorithm’s run-time variables are located at
the local display under Run Status
Current Running Capacity (
→
COOL. See Table 40.
C.CAP) — This variable repre-
sents the amount of capacity currently running in percent.
Current Cool Stage (
CUR.S) —This variable represents the
cool stage currently running.
Requested Cool Stage (
REQ.S) —This variable represents
the requested cool stage. Cooling relay timeguards in place
may prevent the requested cool stage from matching the current cool stage.
Maximum Cool Stages (
MAX.S) —This variable is the max-
imum number of cooling stages the control is configured for
and capable of controlling.
Active Demand Limit (
DEM.L) —If demand limit is active,
this variable will represent the amount of capacity that the
control is currently limited to.
Capacity Load Factor (
SMZ) —This factor builds up or
down over time (–100 to +100) and is used as the means of
adding or subtracting a cooling stage during run time. It is a
normalized representation of the relationship between “Sum”
and “Z”.
Next Stage EDT Decrease (
ADD.R) —This variable repre-
sents (if adding a stage of cooling) how much the temperature
should drop in degrees depending on the R.PCT calculation
and exactly how much additional capacity is to be added.
ADD.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP — capacity after adding a cooling
stage)
For example: If R.PCT = 0.2 and the control would be
adding 20% cooling capacity by taking the next step up,
0.2 times 20 = 4 F (ADD.R)
Next Stage EDT Increase (
SUB.R) —This variable repre-
sents (if subtracting a stage of cooling) how much the temperature should rise in degrees depending on the R.PCT calculation
and exactly how much capacity is to be subtracted.
SUB.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP — capacity after subtracting a
cooling stage)
For Example: If R.PCT = 0.2 and the control would be subtracting 30% capacity by taking the next step down, 0.2 times
–30 = –6 F (SUB.R)
Rise Per Percent Capacity (
R.PCT) —This is a real time cal-
culation that represents the amount of degrees of drop/rise
across the evaporator coil versus percent of current running
capacity.
R.PCT = (MAT – EDT)/ C.CAP
Cap Deadband Subtracting (
Y.MIN) — This is a control vari-
able used for Low Temp Override (L.TMP) and Slow Change
Override (SLOW).
Y.MIN = -SUB.R*0.4375
Cap Deadband Adding (
Y.PLU) —This is a control variable
used for High Temp Override (H.TMP) and Slow Change
Override (SLOW).
Y.PLU = -ADD.R*0.4375
Cap Threshold Subtracting (
Z.MIN) —This parameter is
used in the calculation of SMZ and is calculated as follows:
Z.MIN = Configuration
→
COOL→Z.GN * (–10 + (4*
(–SUB.R))) * 0.6
Cap Threshold Adding (
Z.PLU) —This parameter is used in
the calculation of SMZ and is calculated as follows:
Z.PLU = Configuration
→
COOL→Z.GN * (10 + (4*
(–ADD.R))) * 0.6
High Temp Cap Override (
H.TMP) —If stages of mechani-
cal cooling are on and the error is greater than twice Y. PL U,
and the rate of change of error is greater than 0.5° F per minute,
then a stage of mechanical cooling will be added every 30 seconds. This override is intended to react to situations where the
load rapidly increases.
Low Temp Cap Override (
L.TMP) —If the error is less than
twice Y.MIN , and the rate of change of error is less than
–0.5° F per minute, then a mechanical stage will be removed
every 30 seconds. This override is intended to quickly react to
situations where the load is rapidly reduced.
Pull Down Cap Override (
PULL) —If the error from set
point is above 4° F, and the rate of change is less than –1° F per
minute, then pulldown is in effect, and “SUM” is set to 0. This
keeps mechanical cooling stages from being added when the
error is very large, but there is no load in the space. Pulldown
for units is expected to rarely occur, but is included for the rare
situation when it is needed. Most likely pulldown will occur
when mechanical cooling first becomes available shortly after
the control goes into an occupied mode (after a warm unoccupied mode).
Slow Change Cap Override (
SLOW) —With a rooftop unit,
the design rise at 100% total unit capacity is generally around
30° F. For a unit with 4 stages, each stage represents about
7.5° F of change to EDT. If stages could reliably be cycled at
very fast rates, the set point could be maintained very precisely.
Since it is not desirable to cycle compressors more than 6 cycles per hour, slow change override takes care of keeping the
PID under control when “relatively” close to set point.

SumZ Operation
— The SumZ algorithm is an adaptive PID
style of control. The PID is programmed within the control and
the relative speed of staging can only be influenced by the user
through the adjustment of the Z.GN configuration, described in
the reference section. The capacity control algorithm uses a
modified PID algorithm, with a self adjusting gain which
compensates for varying conditions, including changing flow
rates across the evaporator coil.
Previous implementations of SumZ made static assumptions about the actual size of the next capacity jump up or
down. This control uses a “rise per percent capacity” technique
in the calculation of SumZ, instead of the previous “rise per
stage” method. For each jump, up or down in capacity, the
control will know beforehand the exact capacity change
brought on. Better overall staging control can be realized with
this technique.
SUM Calculation — The PID calculation of the “SUM” is
evaluated once every 80 seconds.
SUM = Error + “SUM last time through” + (3 * Error Rate)
Where:
SUM = the PID calculation
Error = EDT – Cooling Control Point
Error Rate = Error – “Error last time through”
NOTE: “Error” is clamped between –10 and +50 and “Error
rate” is clamped between –5 and +5.
This “SUM” will be compared against the “Z” calculations
in determining whether cooling stages should be added or
subtracted.
Z Calculation — For the “Z” calculation, the control attempts
to determine the entering and the leaving-air temperature of the
evaporator coil and based upon the difference between the two
during mechanical cooling, determines whether to add or
subtract a stage of cooling. This is the adaptive element.
The entering-air temperature is referred to as MAT
(mixed-air temperature) and the leaving-air temperature of the
evaporator coil is referred to as EDT (evaporator discharge
temperature). They are found at the local display under the
Temperatures
→
CTRL sub-menu.
The main elements to be calculated and used in the calculation of SumZ are:
1) the rise per percent capacity (R.PCT)
2) the amount of expected rise for the next cooling stage
addition
3) the amount of expected rise for the next cooling stage
subtraction
The calculation of “Z” requires two variables, Z.PLU used
when adding a stage and Z.MIN used when subtracting a stage.
They are calculated with the following formulas:
Where:
Z.GN = configuration used to modify the threshold levels used
for staging (Configuration
→
COOL→Z.GN)
ADD.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP – capacity after adding a cooling
stage)
SUB.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP – capacity after subtracting a cool-
ing stage)
Both of these terms, Z.PLU and Z.MIN, represent a threshold both positive and negative upon which the “SUM” calculation must build up to in order to cause the compressor to stage
up or down.
Comparing SUM and Z — The “SUM” calculation is compared against Z.PLU and Z.MIN.
• If “SUM” rises above Z.PLU, a cooling stage is added.
• If “SUM” falls below Z.MIN, a cooling stage is subtracted.
There is a variable called SMZ which is described in the
reference section and which can simplify the task of watching
the demand build up or down over time. It is calculated as
follows:
If SUM is positive: SMZ = 100*(SUM/Z.PLU)
If SUM is negative: SMZ = –100*(SUM/Z.MIN)
Mixed Air Temperature Calculation (MAT)
— The mixedair temperature is calculated and is a function of the economizer position. Additionally there are some calculations in the control which can zero in over time on the relationship of return
and outside air as a function of economizer position. There are
two configurations which relate to the calculation of “MAT”.
These configurations can be located at the local display under
MAT Calc Config (MAT.S) —This configuration gives the
user three options in the processing of the mixed-air temperature (MAT) calculation:
• MAT.S = 0
The control will not attempt to learn MAT over time. The
control will simply calculate MAT based on the position of
the economizer, outside and return air temperature, linearly.
• MAT.S = 1
The control will attempt to learn MAT over time. Any time
the system is in a vent mode and the economizer stays at a
particular position for long enough, MAT = EDT. Using
this, the control has an internal table whereby it can more
closely determine the true MAT value.
• MAT.S = 2
The control will stop learning and use whatever the control
has already learned. Using this setting infers that the control
has spent some time set to MAT.S = 1.
First set MAT.S = 1. Then go into the Service Test mode,
turn on the fan and open the economizer to a static position for
5 minutes. Move to several positions (20%,40%,60%,80%). It
is important that the difference between return and outside
temperature be greater than 5 degrees. (The greater the delta,
the better). When done, set MAT.S = 2 and the system has been
commissioned.
Reset MAT Table Entries? (MAT.R) —This configuration
allows the user to reset the internally stored MAT learned
configuration data back to the default values. The defaults are
set to a linear relationship between the economizer damper
position and OAT and RAT in the calculation of MAT.
SumZ Overrides
— There are a number of overrides to the
SumZ algorithm which may add or subtract stages of cooling.
• High Temp Cap Override (H.TMP)
• Low Temp Cap Override (L.TMP)
• Pull Down Cap Override (PULL)
• Slow Change Cap Override (SLOW)
Economizer Trim Override
— The unit may drop stages of
cooling when the economizer is performing free cooling and
the configuration Configuration
→
ECON→E.TRM is set to
Yes. The economizer controls to the same supply air set point
as mechanical cooling does for SumZ when E.TRM = Yes.
This allows for much tighter temperature control as well as cutting down on the cycling of compressors.
For a long cooling session where the outside-air temperature may drop over time, there may be a point at which the
economizer has closed down far enough were the unit could
remove a cooling stage and open up the economizer further to
make up the difference.
Mechanical Cooling Lockout (
Configuration→COOL
→
MC.LO) — This configuration allows a configurable outside-
air temperature set point below which mechanical cooling will
be completely locked out.
DEMAND LIMIT CONTROL — Demand Limit Control
may override the cooling algorithm and clamp or shed
cooling capacity during run time. The term Demand Limit
Control refers to the restriction of the machine capacity
to control the amount of power that a machine will use.
Demand limit control is intended to interface with an external
Loadshed Device either through CCN communications, external switches, or 4 to 20 mA input.
The control has the capability of loadshedding and limiting
in 3 ways:
• Two discrete inputs tied to configurable demand limit set
point percentages.
• An external 4 to 20 mA input that can reset capacity back
linearly to a set point percentage.
• CCN loadshed functionality.
NOTE: It is also possible to force the demand limit variable
(Run Status
→
COOL→DEM.L).
To use Demand Limiting, select the type of demand limiting
to use. This is done with the Demand Limit Select configuration (Configuration
→
DMD.L→DM.L.S).
To view the current demand limiting currently in effect,
look at Run Status
→
COOL→DEM.L.
The configurations associated with demand limiting can be
viewed at the local display at Configuration
→
DMD.L. See
Table 41.
Demand Limit Select (
DM.L.S) — This configuration deter-
mines the type of demand limiting.
• 0 = NONE — Demand Limiting not configured.
• 1 = 2 SWITCHES — This will enable switch input
demand limiting using the switch inputs connected to the
CEM board. Connections should be made to TB204
terminals 1, 2, 3, and 4.
• 2 = 4 to 20 mA — This will enable the use of a remote 4
to 20 mA demand limit signal. The CEM module must
be used. The 4 to 20 mA signal must come from an exter-
nally sourced controller and should be connected to
TB203 terminals 2 and 3.
• 3 = CCN LOADSHED — This will allow for loadshed
and red lining through CCN communications.
Two-Switch Demand Limiting (DM.L.S = 1) — This type of
CCN Loadshed Demand Limiting (DM.L.S = 3) — If the unit
has been configured for CCN Loadshed Demand Limiting,
then the demand limiting variable (Run Status
→
COOL
→
DEM.L) is controlled via CCN commands.
The relevant configurations for this type of demand limiting
are:
Loadshed Group Number (SH.NM) — CCN Loadshed Group
number
Loadshed Demand Delta (SH.DL) — CCN Loadshed
Demand Delta
Maximum Loadshed Time (SH.TM) — CCN Maximum
Loadshed time
The Loadshed Group Number (SH.NM) corresponds to
the loadshed supervisory device that resides elsewhere on the
CCN network and broadcasts loadshed and redline commands to its associated equipment parts. The SH.NM variable
will default to zero which is an invalid group number. This
allows the loadshed function to be disabled until configured.
Upon reception of a redline command, the machine will be
prevented from starting if it is not running. If it is running,
then DEM.L is set equal to the current running cooling capacity (Run Status
→
COOL→C.CAP).
Upon reception of a loadshed command, the DEM.L variable is set to the current running cooling capacity (Run Status
→
COOL→C.CAP) minus the configured Loadshed Demand
Delta (SH.DL).
A redline command or loadshed command will stay in
effect until a Cancel redline or Cancel loadshed command is
received, or until the configurable Maximum Loadshed time
(SH.TM) has elapsed.
HEAD PRESSURE CONTROL — Condenser head pressure
for the 48/50Z series is managed directly by the ComfortLink™
controls. The controls are able to cycle two stages of outdoor
fans to maintain acceptable head pressure. Fan stages will react
to discharge pressure sensors with the pressure converted to the
corresponding saturated condensing temperature. Unit size is
used to determine if the second stage fans are configured to
respond to a particular circuit (independent control) or both
circuits (common control).
An option to allow fan cycling on the first stage is configured by setting Configuration
→
COOL→M.M = Yes.
NOTE: The term Motormaster is used in the software to refer
to a fan cycling on the first stage. An actual Motormaster®
device is not used or required. Cycling is done by the
ComfortLink controls.
There are two configurations provided for head pressure
control that can be found at the local display:
Configuration
Configuration
→
COOL→M.M. — Motormaster enable
→
COOL→HPSP — Head Pressure Set point
There are three outputs provided to control head pressure:

Outputs
→
FA NS→CD.F.A — Condenser Fan A
→
FA NS→CD.F.B — Condenser Fan B
→
FA NS→CD.MM — “Motor master” or the fan
cycling output
Fan Stage 1 Operation
— If Stage 1 Cycling (Motormaster)
is not selected, the stage 1 fan output will be ON whenever
mechanical cooling is ON (either circuit) and OFF when
mechanical cooling is OFF (both circuits).
If Stage 1 Cycling (Motormaster) is selected, the first stage
operates as follows:
The fan stage turns ON whenever either saturated condens-
ing temperature (SCT) is greater than 138 F.
The fan stage 1 turns OFF whenever both SCTs are less
than the HPSP – 37 F for 90 seconds and fan stage is 1.
Fan Stage 2 Operation (Sizes 030-050)
— The control energizes fan CD.F.A when either of the SCTs exceeds HPSP and
the Stage 1 Fan (CD.MM) has been energized for 60 seconds.
Fan CD.F.A is turned OFF when both SCTs have been less
than the set point – 35 F for a period of 2 minutes. Fan stage 2
will turn OFF if both circuits are turned off.
Fan Stage 2 Operation (Sizes 055-105)
— There are two
conditions that may request the second stage fan for independent control:
• the control energizes fan stage 2 when the SCT for that
circuit exceeds HPSP and the Stage 1 fan has been energized for 60 seconds.
• the control energizes fan stage 2 if the SCT for the partic-
ular circuit exceeds 143 F during the first 60 seconds
after fan stage 1 has been turned on.
Fan stage 2 turns OFF when the SCT for the particular cir-
cuit has been less than HPSP – 35 F for a period of 2 minutes.
Head Pressure Control Exceptions
— For size 105 units, current sensor boards are able to diagnose a compressor stuck on
condition. If any of the current sensor boards for the fourcompressor unit detects a compressor stuck on, then the first
stage fan is turned on immediately (CD.MM). If compressors
A1 or A2 are diagnosed as stuck on, the second stage fan for
that circuit will be turned on (CD.F.A). If compressors B1 or
B2 are diagnosed as stuck on, the second stage fan for that
circuit will be turned on (CD.F.B).
If no compressors are stuck on, the next check will determine whether compressors are on or not. If any compressor has
not been commanded on, the first stage fan is not allowed on.
This is also true for the second stage fan and units configured
for unit sizes 030-050. For unit sizes 055-105, if no compressors in a circuit are commanded on, the corresponding second
stage fan is not allowed on (CD.F.A, CD.F.B).
ECONOMIZER INTEGRATION WITH MECHANICAL
COOLING — When the economizer is able to provide free
cooling (Run Status
→
ECON→ACTV = YES), mechanical
cooling may be delayed or even held off indefinitely.
NOTE: Once mechanical cooling has started, this delay logic
is no longer relevant.
Multi-Stage Cooling Economizer Mechanical Cooling
Delay — This type of mechanical cooling delay is relevant to
the following machine control types:
If the economizer is able to provide free cooling at the start
of a cooling session, the mechanical cooling algorithm
(SumZ), checks the economizer’s current position (Run Status
→
ECON→ECN.P) and compares it to the economizer’s
maximum position (Configuration
→
ECON→EC.MX) – 5%.
Once the economizer has opened beyond this point a 150 second timer starts. If the economizer stays beyond this point for
2.5 minutes continuously, the mechanical cooling algorithm is
allowed to start computing demand and stage compressors and
unloaders.
—
This type of mechanical cooling delay is relevant to the following machine control types:
C.TYP = 4TSTAT-2 STG
C.TYP = 6SPT-2 STG
If the economizer is able to provide free cooling at the start
of a cooling session (for either a low cool or a high cool mode),
the 2-stage cooling algorithm will start a 10-minute hold off
timer on staging. Once this timer has expired, the 2-stage
cooling algorithm will qualify both the temperature of the
evaporator discharge temperature (EDT) and the outside-air
temperature (OAT).
If either of these temperatures are less than the current cooling control point (Run Status
→
VIEW→CL.C.P) plus 1.5° F,
mechanical cooling will be held off. But if both of these
temperatures are above CL.C.P + 1.5° F, the first compressor
will be requested and a 5-minute hold off timer will be started
that will give the first compressor time to run before the second
compressor may be started.
At this point, if the 5-minute timer expires and the cooling
mode request is high or the cooling mode request is low and
dehumidification is active (Operating Modes
→
MODE
→
DEHU=ON), the 2-stage cooling algorithm checks whether
EDT is 1.5° F greater than the current cooling control point
(CL.C.P) and if it is, the second compressor will be requested.
Heating Control — The Z Series ComfortLink™ con-
trols offers control for four different types of heating systems to
satisfy general space heating requirements: 2-stage gas heat,
2-stage electric heat, multiple-stage gas heat and hydronic heat.
Heating control also provides tempering and reheat functions.
These functions are discussed in separate sections. Reheat is discussed under Dehumidification function on page 77.
Variable air volume (VAV) type applications (C.TYP = 1, 2,
3, or 5) require that the space terminal positions be commanded
to open to minimum heating positions when gas or electric heat
systems are active, to provide for the unit heating system’s
Minimum Heating Airflow rate.
Also, for VAV applications, the heat interlock relay (HIR)
function provides the switching of a control signal intended for
use by the VAV terminals. This signal must be used to command the terminals to open to their Heating Open positions.
The HIR is energized whenever the Heating mode is active, an
IAQ pre-occupied force is active, or if fire smoke modes, pressurization, or smoke purge modes are active.
Hydronic heating applications that use the unit’s control
require the installation of a Local Equipment Network (LEN)
communicating actuator on the hydronic heating coil’s control
valve. This actuator (with or without matching control valve)
may be separately shipped for field installation.
All heating systems are available as factory-installed
options. The hydronic heating coil may also be field-supplied
and field-installed; the LEN actuator is still required if unit
control will be used to manage this heating sequence.

Heating Supply Air Set Point (
HT.SP) — In a low heat mode
for either staged gas or hydronic heat, this is the supply air set
point for heating.
Occupied Heating Enable (
OC.EN) — This configuration
only applies when the unit’s control type (Configuration
→
UNIT→C.TYP) is configured for 1 (VAV-RAT) or 2 (VAV-
SPT). If the user wants to have the capability of performing
heating throughout the entire occupied period, then this
configuration needs to be set to “YES”. Most installations do
not require this capability, and if heating is installed, it is used
to heat the building up in the morning. In this case set OC.EN
to “NO”.
NOTE: This unit des not support simultaneous heating and
cooling. If significant simultaneous heating and cooling
demand is expected, it may be necessary to provide additional
heating or cooling equipment and a control system to provide
occupants with proper comfort.
MBB Sensor Heat Relocate (
LAT.M) — This option allows
the user additional performance benefit when under CCN
Linkage for the 2-stage electric and gas heating types. As twostage heating types do not “modulate” to a supply air set point,
no leaving air thermistor is required and none is provided. The
evaporator discharge thermistor, which is initially installed upstream of the heater, can be repositioned downstream and the
control can expect to sense this heat. While the control does not
need this to energize stages of heat, the control can wait for a
sufficient temperature rise before announcing a heating mode
to a CCN Linkage system (ComfortID™).
If the sensor is relocated, the user will now have the
capability to view the leaving-air temperature at all times at
Temperatures
→
AIR.T→CTRL→LAT.
NOTE: If the user does not relocate this sensor for the 2-stage
electric or gas heating types and is under CCN Linkage, then
the control will send a heating mode (if present) unconditionally to the linkage coordinator in the CCN zoning system
regardless of the leaving-air temperature.
HEAT MODE SELECTION PROCESS — There are two
possible heat modes that the control will call out for heating
control: HVAC Mode = LOW HEAT and HVAC Mode =
HIGH HEAT. These modes will be called out based on control
type (C.TYP).
VAV- R AT (
C.TYP= 1) and VAV-SPT (C.TYP = 2) — There
is no difference in the selection of a heating mode for either
VAV-RAT or VAV-SPT, except that for VAV-SPT, space
temperature is used in the unoccupied period to turn on the
supply fan for 10 minutes before checking return-air temperature. The actual selection of a heat mode, LOW or HIGH for
both control types, will be based upon the controlling return-air
temperature.
With sufficient heating demand, there are still conditions
that will prevent the unit from selecting a heat mode. First, the
unit must be configured for a heat type (Configuration
→
HEAT→HT.CF not equal to “NONE”). Second, the unit has a
configuration which can enable or disable heating in the
occupied period except for a standard morning warmup cycle
(Configuration
→
HEAT→OC.EN). See descriptions above in
the Setting Up the System section for more information.
If the unit is allowed to select a heat mode, then the next
step is an evaluation of demand versus set point. At this point,
the logic is the same as for control types SPT Multi-Stage and
SPT-2 Stage, (C.TYP = 5,6) except for the actual temperature
compared against set point. See Temperature Driven Heat
Mode Evaluation section.
Tstat-Multi-Stage (
C.TYP = 3) and Tstat-2 Stage (C.TYP =
4) — There is no difference to consider for selecting a heat
mode whether the control type is for TSTAT 2-stage or TSTAT
multi-stage as this only refers to how cooling will be handled.
With thermostat control the W1 and W2 inputs determine
whether the HVAC Mode is LOW or HIGH HEAT.
W1 = ON, W2 = OFF: HVAC MODE = LOW HEAT*
W2 = ON, W2 = ON: HVAC MODE = HIGH HEAT
*If the heating type is either 2-stage electric or 2-stage gas, the
unit may promote a low heat mode to a high heat mode.
NOTE: If W2 = ON and W1 is OFF, a “HIGH HEAT” HVAC
Mode will be called out but an alert (T422) will be generated.
See Alarms and Alerts section on page 94.
SPT Multi-Stage (
C.TYP= 5) and SPT 2 Stage (C.TYP = 6)
— There is no difference to consider for selecting a heat mode
whether the control type is for SPT 2-stage or SPT multi-stage as
this only refers to how cooling will be handled. So, for a valid
heating type selected (HT.CF not equal to zero) the unit is free
to select a heating mode based on space temperature (SPT).
If the unit is allowed to select a heat mode, then the next
step is an evaluation of demand versus set point. At this point,
the logic is the same as for control types VAV-RAT and
VAV- S PT, ( C.TYP = 1,2) except for the actual temperature
compared against set point. See Temperature Driven Heat
Mode Evaluation section below.
TEMPERATURE DRIVEN HEAT MODE EVALUATION —
This section discusses the technique for selecting a heating
mode based on temperature. Regardless of whether the unit is
configured for return air or space temperature the logic is exactly the same. For the rest of this discussion, the temperature
in question will be referred to as the “controlling temperature.”
First, the occupied and unoccupied heating set points under
Setpoints must be configured.

The first thing the control determines is whether the unit
is in the occupied mode (OCC) or in the temperature compensated start mode (T. C. ST ). If the unit is occupied or in temperature compensated start mode, the occupied heating set point
(OHSP) is used. In all other cases, the unoccupied heating
setpoint (UHSP) is used.
The control will call out a low or high heat mode by
comparing the controlling temperature to the heating set point
and the heating set point offset. The set point offsets are used as
additional help in customizing and tweaking comfort into the
building space.
Demand Level Low Heat on Offset (
L.H.ON) — This is the
heating set point offset below the heating set point at which
point Low Heat starts.
Demand Level High Heat on Offset (
H.H.ON) — This is the
heating set point offset below [the heating set point minus
L.H.ON] at which point high heat starts.
Demand Level Low Heat Off Offset (
L.H.OF) — This is the
heating set point offset above [the heating set point minus
L.H.ON] at which point the Low Heat mode ends.
See Fig. 7 for an example of offsets.
To enter into a LOW HEAT mode, if the controlling temperature falls below [the heating set point minus L.H.ON], then
HVAC mode = LOW HEAT.
To enter into a HIGH HEAT mode, if the controlling temperature falls below [the heating set point minus L.H.ON minus H.H.ON], then HVAC mode = HIGH HEAT.
To get out of a LOW HEAT mode, the controlling temperature must rise above [the heating set point minus L.H.ON plus
L.H.OF].
To get out of a HIGH HEAT mode, the controlling temperature must rise above [the heating set point minus L.H.ON plus
L.H.OF/2].
The Run Status table in the local display allows the user to
see the exact trip points for both the heating and cooling modes
without doing the calculations.
Heat Trend Demand Level (
H.T.LV) — This is the change in
demand that must be seen within the time period specified by
H.T.TM in order to hold off a HIGH HEAT mode regardless of
demand. This is not applicable to VAV control types (C.TYP=1
and 2) in the occupied period. This technique has been referred
to as “Comfort Trending.” As long as a LOW HEAT mode is
making progress in warming the space, the control will hold off
on a HIGH HEAT mode. This is relevant for the space sensor
machine control types (C.TYP = 5 and 6) because they may
transition into the occupied mode and see an immediate and
large heating demand when the set points change.
Heat Trend Time (
H.T.TM) — This is the time period upon
which the heat trend demand level (H.T.LV) operates and may
work to hold off staging or a HIGH HEAT mode. This is not
applicable to VAV control types (C.TYP=1 and 2) in the
occupied period. See “Heat Trend Demand Level” section for
more details.
HEAT MODE DIAGNOSTIC HELP — To quickly determine the current trip points for the low and high heat modes,
there is a menu in the local display which lets the user quickly
view the state of the system. This menu also contains the cool
trip points as well. See Table 44 at the local display under Run
The controlling temperature is “TEMP” and is in the middle
of the table for easy reference. Also, the “HVAC” mode can be
viewed at the bottom of the table.
TWO-STAGE GAS AND ELECTRIC HEAT CONTROL
(HT.CF = 1,2) — If the HVAC mode is LOW HEAT:
• If electric heat is configured, then the control will request
the supply fan ON
• If gas heat is configured, then the IGC IFO input controls
the supply fan request
• The control will turn on Heat Relay 1 (HS1)
• If evaporator discharge temperature is less than 50 F,
then the control will turn on Heat Relay 2 (HS2)*
If the HVAC mode is HIGH HEAT:
• If electric heat is configured, then the control will request
the supply fan ON
• If gas heat is configured, then the IGC IFO input controls
the supply fan request
• The control will turn on Heat Relay 1 (HS1)
• The control will turn on Heat Relay 2 (HS2)
*The logic for this “low heat” override is that one stage of
heating will not be able to raise the temperature of the supply
airstream sufficient to heat the space.
HYDRONIC HEATING CONTROL (HT.CF = 4) — Hy-
dronic heating in Z Series units refers to a hot water coil controlled by an actuator. This actuator is a Local Equipment Network (LEN) communicating actuator and may be field supplied. When Configuration
thermistor array called Te mp e ra t ur e s
→
HEAT→HT.CF=4, there is a
→
AIR.T→CCT, that is
connected to the RCB, that serves as the evaporator discharge
temperature (EDT). The leaving-air temperature (LAT) is assigned the thermistor that is normally assigned to EDT and is
located at the supply fan housing (Temperatures
→
AIR.T
→
SAT).
The configurations for hydronic heating are located at
the local displays under Configuration
HW.P) — This
configuration is the proportional term for the PID which runs in
the HVAC mode LOW HEAT.
Hydronic Heating Control Integral Gain (
HW.I) — This
configuration is the integral term for the PID which runs in the
HVAC mode LOW HEAT.
Hydronic Heating Control Derivative Gain (
HW.D) — This
configuration is the derivative term for the PID which runs in
the HVAC mode LOW HEAT.
Hydronic Heating Control Run Time Rate (
HW.TM) —
This configuration is the PID run time rate which runs in the
HVAC mode LOW HEAT.
Hydronic Heating Logic
If the HVAC mode is LOW HEAT:
• The control will command the supply fan on
• The control will modulate the hot water coil actuator to
the heating control point (Run Status
→
VIEW
→
HT.C.P). The heating control point for hydronic heat is
the heating supply air set point (Setpoints
→
SA.HT).
If the HVAC mode is HIGH HEAT:
• The control will command the supply fan on
• The control will command the hot water coil actuator to
100%
Hydronic Heating PID Process
— If the HVAC mode is
LOW HEAT, then the hydronic heating actuator will modulate
to the heating control point (Run Status
→
VIEW→HT.C.P).
Control is performed with a generic PID loop where:
Error = Heating Control Point (HT.C.P) – Leaving Air Tem-
perature (LAT)
The PID terms are calculated as follows:
P = K * HW.P * error
I = K * HW.I * error + “I” last time through
D = K * HW.D * (error – error last time through)
Where K = HW.TM/60 to normalize the effect of changing the
run time rate.
NOTE: The PID values should be not be modified without
approval from Carrier.
Freeze Status Switch Logic (
Inputs→GEN.I→FRZ.S) — If
the freezestat input (FRZ) alarms, indicating that the coil is
freezing, normal heat control is overridden and the following
actions will be taken:
1. Command the hot water coil actuator to 100%.
2. Command the economizer damper to 0%.
3. Command the supply fan on.
Configuring Hydronic Heat to Communicate Via Actuator
Serial Number — Every actuator used in the Z Series control
system has its own unique serial number. The rooftop control
uses this serial number to communicate with the actuator over
the local equipment network (LEN). These serial numbers are
programmed at the factory and should not need changing.
Should field replacement of an actuator become necessary, it
will be required to configure the serial numbers of the new
actuator. Five individual numbers make up this serial number
and these can be programmed to match the serial number of the
actuator in its Hydronic Heating Actuator Configs group,
ACT.C (SN.1, SN.2, SN.3, SN.4, SN.5).
NOTE: The serial numbers for all LEN actuators can be found
inside the control doors of the unit as well as on the actuator
itself. If an actuator is replaced in the field, it is a good idea to
remove the additional peel off serial number sticker on the
actuator and cover up the old one inside the control doors.
STAGED GAS HEATING CONTROL (HT.CF = 3) — As
an option, the units with gas heat can be equipped with staged
gas heat controls that will provide from 5 to 11 stages of heat
capacity. This is intended for tempering mode and tempering
economizer air when in a cooling mode and the dampers
are fully closed. Tempering can also be used during a preoccupancy purge to prevent low temperature air from being
delivered to the space. Tempering for both staged gas and
hydronic heat will be discussed in its own section. This section
will focus on heat mode control, which ultimately is relevant to
tempering, minus the consideration of the supply air heating
control point.
The staged gas configurations are located at the local

cycle.

M.R.DB) — This configuration
is a deadband minimum temperature per second rate. See
capacity calculation logic on next page for more details.
St.Gas Temp.Dead Band (
S.G.DB) — This configuration is a
deadband delta temperature. See capacity calculation logic on
next page for more details.
Heat Rise in dF/Sec Clamp (
RISE) — This configuration
clamps heat staging up when the leaving-air temperature is
rising too fast.
LAT Limit Config (
LAT.L) — This configuration senses
when leaving air temperature is outside a delta temperature
band around set point and allows staging to react quicker.
Limit Switch Monitoring? (
LIM.M) — This configuration
allows the operation of the limit switch monitoring routine.
This is always enabled for Z Series as a limit switch temperature sensor is always present for staged gas operation.
Limit Switch High Temp (
SW.H.T) — This configuration is
the temperature limit above which stages of heat will be shed.
Limit Switch Low Temp (
SW.L.T) — This configuration is
the temperature limit above which no additional stages of heat
will be allowed.
Heat Control Prop. Gain (
HT.P) — This configuration is the
proportional term for the PID which runs in the HVAC mode
LOW HEAT.

Staged Gas Heating Logic
If the HVAC mode is HIGH HEAT:
• The supply fan for staged gas heating is controlled by the
48Z Integrated Gas Control (IGC) boards and unless the
supply fan is on for a different reason, will be controlled
by the IGC IFO input.
• Command all stages of heat ON
If the HVAC mode is LOW HEAT:
• The supply fan for staged gas heating is controlled by the
integrated gas control (IGC) boards and unless the
supply fan is on for a different reason, will be controlled
by the IGC IFO input.
• The unit will control stages of heat to the heating control
point (Run Status

trol point in a LOW HEAT HVAC mode for staged gas is
the heating supply air set point (Setpoints

PID design with exceptions, overrides and clamps. Capacity
rises and falls based on set point and supply-air temperature.
When the staged gas control is in Low Heat or Tempering
Mode (HVAC mode), the algorithm calculates the desired heat
capacity. The basic factors that govern the controlling technique are:
• how fast the algorithm is run.
• the amount of proportional and derivative gain applied.
• the maximum allowed capacity change each time this
algorithm is run.
• deadband hold-off range when rate is low.
This routine is run once every “HT.TM” seconds. Every
time the routine is run, the calculated sum is added to the control output value. In this manner, integral effect is achieved.
Every time this algorithm is run, the following calculation is
performed:
Error = HT.C.P – LAT
Error_last = error calculated previous time
P = HT.P*(Error)
D = HT.D*(Error – Error_last)
The P and D terms are overridden to zero if:
Error < S.G.DB AND Error > – S.G.DB AND D < M.R.DB
AND D > – M.R.DB “P + D” are then clamped based on
CAP.M. This sum can be no larger or no smaller than +CAP.M
or –CAP.M.
Finally, the desired capacity is calculated:
Staged Gas Capacity Calculation = “P + D” + old Staged Gas
Capacity Calculation
NOTE: The PID values should not be modified without
approval from Carrier.
IMPORTANT: When gas or electric heat is used in a VAV
application with third party terminals, the HIR relay output
must be connected to the VAV terminals in the system in
order to enforce a minimum heating cfm. The installer is
responsible to ensure the total minimum heating cfm is not
below limits set for the equipment. Failure to do so will
result in limit switch tripping and may void warranty.
Staged Gas Heat Staging
— Different unit sizes will control
heat stages differently based on the amount of heating capacity
included. These staging patterns are selected based on the model number. The selection of a set of staging patterns is controlled via the heat stage type configuration parameter (HT.ST).
As the heating capacity rises and falls based on demand, the
staged gas control logic will stage the heat relay patterns up and
down, respectively. The Heat Stage Type configuration selects
one of 5 staging patterns that the stage gas control will use. In
addition to the staging patterns, the capacity for each stage
is also determined by the staged gas heating PID control. Therefore, choosing the heat relay outputs is a function of the capacity desired, the heat staging patterns based on the heat stage type
(HT.ST) and the capacity presented by each staging pattern. As
the staged gas control desired capacity rises, it is continually
checked against the capacity of the next staging pattern.
When the desired capacity is greater than or equal to the
capacity of the next staging pattern, the next heat stage is selected (Run Status
→
VIEW→HT.ST = Run Status→VIEW
→
HT.ST + 1). Similarly, as the capacity of the control drops, the
desired capacity is continually checked against the next lower
stage. When the desired capacity is less than or equal to the
next lower staging pattern, the next lower heat stage pattern
is selected (Run Status
→
VIEW→ HT.ST – 1). The first two staged gas heat outputs
→
VIEW→HT.ST = Run Status
are located on the MBB board and outputs 3, 4, 5, and 6 are
located on the SCB board. These outputs are used to yield from
2 to 9 stages as shown in Table 47. The heat stage selected

Limit Switch Temperature Monitoring (
LIM.M) — Variable
air volume applications in the low heat or tempering mode can
experience low airflow and as a result it is possible for nuisance
trips of the gas heat limit switch, thereby shutting off all gas
stages. In order to achieve consistent heating in a tempering
mode, a thermistor (Te mp e ra t ur e s
→
AIR.T→S.G.LS) is placed
next to the limit switch and monitored for overheating. In order
to control a tempering application where the limit switch
temperature has risen above either the upper or lower configuration parameters (SW.L.T, SW.H.T), the staged gas control
will respond to clamp or drop all gas stages.
If the Limit Switch Monitoring configuration parameter
(LIM.M) is set to YES, all the modes will be monitored. If set
to NO, then only LAT Cutoff mode and Capacity Clamp mode
for RISE will be monitored.
If S.G.LS rises above SW.L.T or if (LAT – LAT last time
through the capacity calculation) is greater than (RISE)
degrees F per second, the control will not allow the capacity
routine to add stages and will turn on the Capacity Clamp
mode.
If S.G.LS rises above SW.H.T the control will run the capac-
ity routine immediately and drop all heat stages and will turn
on the Limiting mode.
If S.G.LS falls below SW.L.T the control will turn off both
Capacity Clamp mode and Limiting mode with one exception.
If (LAT – LAT last time through the capacity calculation) is
greater than “RISE” degrees F per second, the control will stay
in the Capacity Clamp mode.
If control is in the Limiting mode and then S.G.LS falls
below SW.L.T, and LAT is not rising quickly, the control will
run the capacity calculation routine immediately and allow a
full stage to come back on if desired this first time through
upon recovery. This will effectively override the “max capacity
stage” clamp.
In addition to the above checks, it is also possible at low cfm
for the supply-air temperature to rise and fall radically between
capacity calculations, thereby impacting the limit switch temperature. In the case where supply-air temperature (LAT) rises
above the control point (HT.C.P) + the cutoff point (LAT.L) the
control will run the capacity calculation routine immediately
and drop a stage of heat. Thereafter, every time the capacity
calculation routine runs, provided the control is still in the LAT
cutoff mode condition, a stage will drop each time through.
Falling back below the cutoff point will turn off the LAT cutoff
mode.
INTEGRATED GAS CONTROL BOARD LOGIC — All gas
heat units are equipped with one or more integrated gas control
(IGC) boards. This board provides control for the ignition system for the gas heat sections. On size 030-050 low heat units
there will be one IGC board. On size 030-050 high heat units
and 055-105 low heat units there are two IGC boards. On size
055-105 high heat units there are three IGC boards. When a
call for gas heat is initiated, power is sent to W on the IGC
boards. For standard 2-stage heat, all boards are wired in parallel. For staged gas heat, each board is controlled separately.
When energized, an LED on the IGC board will be turned on.
See Table 51 for LED explanations. Each board will ensure
that the rollout switch and limit switch are closed. The induceddraft motor is then energized. When the speed of the motor is
proven with the Hall Effect sensor on the motor, the ignition
activation period begins. The burners ignite within 5 seconds.
If the burners do not light, there is a 22-second delay before another 5-second attempt is made. If the burners still do not light,
this sequence is repeated for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes have
elapsed and the burners have not ignited then heating is locked
out. The control will reset when the request for W (heat) is temporarily removed. When ignition occurs, the IGC board will
continue to monitor the condition of the rollout switch, limit
switches, Hall Effect sensor, and the flame sensor. Forty-five
seconds after ignition has occurred, the IGC will request that
the indoor fan be turned on. The IGC fan output (IFO) is
connected to the indoor fan input on the MBB which will
indicate to the controls that the indoor fan should be turned on
(if not already on). If for some reason the overtemperature limit
switch trips prior to the start of the indoor fan blower, on the
next attempt the 45-second delay will be shortened by 5 seconds. Gas will not be interrupted to the burners and heating will
continue. Once modified, the fan delay will not change back to
45 seconds unless power is reset to the control. The IGC boards

types (Configuration

Determine a location in the supply duct that will provide a
fairly uniform airflow. Typically this would be a minimum of
5 equivalent duct diameters downstream of the unit. Also, care
should be taken to avoid placing the thermistor within a direct
line-of-sight of the heating element to avoid radiant effects.
Run a new two-wire conductor cable from the control box
through the low voltage conduit into the space inside the building and route the cable to the new sensor location.
Installing a New Sensor
— Procure a duct-mount temperature
sensor (Carrier P/N 33ZCSENPAT or equivalent 10-kilo-ohm
at 25C NTC [negative temperature coefficient] sensor). Install
the sensor through the side wall of the duct and secure.
Re-Using the Factory SAT Sensor
— The factory sensor is
attached to the left-hand side of the supply fan housing. Disconnect the sensor from the factory harness. Fabricate a mounting method to insert the sensor through the duct wall and secure in place.
Attach the new conductor cable to the sensor leads and terminate in an appropriate junction box. Connect the opposite
end inside the unit control box at the factory leads from MBB
J8 terminals 11 and 12 (PNK) leads. Secure the unattached
PNK leads from the factory harness to ensure no accidental
contact with other terminals inside the control box.
TEMPERING MODE — In a vent or cooling mode, the
economizer at minimum position may send extremely cold
outside air down the ductwork of the building. Therefore it
may be necessary to bring heat on to counter-effect this low
supply-air temperature. This is referred to as the tempering
mode.

or a high cool HVAC mode to be considered for a tempering
mode. Secondly, the tempering mode is only allowed when the
rooftop is configured for staged gas or hydronic heating (Con-
figuration
→
HEAT→HT.CF=3 or 4).
If the control is configured for staged gas or hydronic heating and the control is in a vent, low cool, or high cool HVAC
mode, and the rooftop control is in a situation where the economizer must maintain a minimum position/minimum cfm, then
the evaporator discharge temperature (EDT) will be monitored.
If the EDT falls below a particular trip point then the tempering
mode may be called out:
HVAC mode = “Tempering Vent”
HVAC mode = “Tempering LoCool”
HVAC mode = “Tempering HiCool”
The decision making/selection process for the tempering
trip set point is as follows:
• If an HVAC cool mode is in effect, then the vent trip
point is T. CL .
• If in a pre-occupied purge mode (Operating Modes
→
MODE→IAQ.P=ON), then the trip point is T.P RG.
• If in an occupied mode (Operating Modes
→
MODE
→
IAQ.P=ON), then the trip point is TEMPVOCC.
• For all other cases, the trip point is TEMPVUNC.
NOTE: The unoccupied economizer free cooling does not
qualify as a HVAC cool mode as it is an energy saving feature
and has its own OAT lockout already. The unoccupied free
cooling mode (HVAC mode = Unocc. Free Cool) will override
any unoccupied vent mode from triggering a tempering mode.
If OAT is above the chosen tempering set point, tempering
will not be allowed. Additionally, tempering mode is locked
out if any stages of mechanical cooling are present.
A minimum amount of time must pass before calling out
any tempering mode. In effect, the EDT must fall below the
trip point value –1° F continuously for a minimum of 2 minutes. Also, at the end of a mechanical cooling cycle, there must
be a minimum 10 minutes of delay allowed before considering
a tempering during vent mode in order to allow any residual
cooling to dissipate from the evaporator coil.
If the above conditions are met, the algorithm is free to
select the tempering mode (MODETEMP).
If a tempering mode becomes active, the modulating heat
source (staged gas or hot water) will attempt to maintain
leaving-air temperature (LAT) at the tempering set point used
to trigger the tempering mode. The technique for modulation of
set point for staged gas and hydronic heat is the same as in a
heat mode. More information regarding the operation of heating can be referenced in the Heating Control section.
Recovery from a tempering mode (MODETEMP) will
occur when the EDT rises above the trip point. On any change
in HVACMODE, the tempering routine will re-assess the tempering set point which may cause the control to continue or exit
tempering mode.
Static Pressure Control — Variable air volume (VAV)
air-conditioning systems must provide varying amounts of air
to the conditioned space. As air terminals downstream of the
unit modulate their flows, the unit must simply maintain
control over duct static pressure in order to accommodate the
needs of the terminals, and therefore to meet the varying
combined airflow requirement. The unit design includes two
alternative optional means of accommodating this requirement.
This section describes the technique by which this control takes
place.
A unit intended for use in a VAV system can be equipped
with either an optional variable frequency drive (VFD) or inlet
guide vanes (IGV) for the supply fan. The speed of the fan or
the position of the IGV can be controlled directly by the
ComfortLink™ controls. A transducer is used to measure duct
static pressure. The signal from the transducer is received by
the RCB board and is then used in a PID control routine that
outputs a 4 to 20 mA signal to the VFD, or a digital LEN signal
to the IGV.
Generally only VAV systems utilize static pressure control.
It is required because as the system VAV terminals modulate
closed when less air is required, there must be a means of
controlling airflow from the unit, thereby effectively preventing overpressurization and its accompanying problems.
The three most fundamental configurations for most applications are Configuration
pressure control type, Configuration
enable the static pressure sensor, and Configuration→SP
→
SP.SP, the static pressure set point to be maintained.
OPERATION — On units equipped with either VFD or IGV
and a proper static pressure sensor, when SP.CF, SP.S andSP.SP are configured, a PID routine periodically measures the
duct static pressure and calculates the error from set point. This
error at any point in time is simply the duct static pressure set
point minus the measured duct static. The error becomes the
basis for the Proportional term of the PID. The routine also calculates the integral of the error over time, and the derivative
(rate of change) of the error. A value is calculated as a result of
this PID routine, and this value is then used to create an output
signal used to adjust the IGV or VFD to maintain the static
pressure set point.
Static pressure reset is the ability to force a lowering of the
static pressure set point through an external control signal.
Explained in detail further below, the control supports this in
two separate ways; through a 4 to 20 mA signal input wired to
TB203 terminals 6 and 7 (thereby facilitating third party
control), or via CCN.
In the latter case, this feature leverages the communications
capabilities of VAV systems employing ComfortID™ terminals under linkage. The system dynamically determines and
maintains an optimal duct static pressure set point based on
the actual load conditions in the space. This can result in a
significant reduction in required fan energy by lowering the set
point to only the level required to maintain adequate airflow
throughout the system.

Static Pressure Configuration (
SP.CF) — This variable is
used to configure the use of ComfortLink™ controls for static
pressure control. It has the following options:
0 (None)
— No static pressure control by ComfortLink
controls. This would be used for a constant volume (CV)
application when static pressure control is not required or for a
VAV application if there will be third-party control of the VFD
or IGV. In this latter case, a suitable means of control must be
field installed.
1 (VFD Control)
— This will enable the use of ComfortLink
controls for static pressure control via a supply fan VFD.
2 (IGV Control)
— This will enable the use of ComfortLink
controls for static pressure control via supply fan inlet guide
vanes (IGV).
Static Pressure Sensor (
SP.S) — This variable enables the use
of a supply duct static pressure sensor. This must be enabled to
use ComfortLink controls for static pressure control. If using a
third-party control for the VFD or IGV, this should be disabled.
Static Pressure Low Range (
SP.LO) — This is the minimum
static pressure that the sensor will measure. For most sensors
this will be 0 in. wg. The ComfortLink controls will map this
value to a 4 mA sensor input.
Static Pressure High Range (
SP.HI) — This is the maximum
static pressure that the sensor will measure. Commonly this
will be 5 in. wg. The ComfortLink controls will map this value
to a 20 mA sensor input.
Static Pressure Set Point (
SP.SP) — This is the static pressure control point. It is the point against which the
ComfortLink controls compares the actual measured supply
duct pressure for determination of the error that is used for PID
control. Generally one would set SP.SP to the minimum value
necessary for proper operation of air terminals in the conditioned space at all load conditions. Too high of a value will
cause unnecessary fan motor power consumption at part-load
conditions and/or noise problems. Too low a value will result in
insufficient airflow. Additional information will be found on
page 63, under Static Pressure Reset.
VFD-IGV Minimum Speed (
SP.MN) — This is the minimum speed for the supply fan VFD or the minimum opening
for the supply fan IGV. Typically the value is chosen to maintain a minimum level of ventilation.
NOTE: Most VFDs have a built-in minimum speed adjustment
which must be configured for 0% when using ComfortLink
controls for static pressure control.
VFD-IGV Maximum Speed (
SP.MX) — This is the maximum speed for the supply fan VFD or the maximum opening
for the supply fan IGV. This is usually set to 100%.
VFD-IGV Fire Speed Override (
SP.FS) — This is the speed
that the supply fan VFD or the supply fan IGV will use during
the fire modes; pressurization, evacuation and purge. This is
usually set to 100%.
Static Pressure Reset Configuration (
SP.RS) — This option
is used to configure the static pressure reset function. When
SP.RS = 0, there is no static pressure reset via an analog input.
When SP.RS = 1, there is static pressure reset based on the
CEM 4-20MA input and ranged from 0 to 3 in. wg. When
SP.RS = 2, there is static pressure reset based on RAT and
defined by SP.RT and SP.LM. When SP.RS = 3, there is
static pressure reset based on SPT and defined by SP.RT andSP.LM. When SP.RS = 4, there is VFD speed control where
0 mA = 0% speed and 20 mA = 100% (SP.MN and SP.MX will
override).
Static Pressure Reset Ratio (
SP.RT) — This option defines
the reset ratio in terms of static pressure versus temperature.
The reset ratio determines how much is the static pressure
reduced for every degree below set point for RAT or SPT.
Static Pressure Reset Limit (
SP.LM) — This option defines
the maximum amount of static pressure reset that is allowed.
This is sometimes called a “clamp.”
NOTE: Resetting static pressure via RAT and SPT is primarily
a constant volume application which utilizes a VFD. The reasoning is that there is significant energy savings in slowing
down a supply fan as opposed to running full speed with
supply air reset. Maintaining the supply air set point and
62
slowing down the fan has the additional benefit of working
around dehumidification concerns.
Static Pressure Reset Economizer Position (
SP.EC) — This
option effectively resets ECONOMIN to fully occupied ventilation position, to account for the drop in static pressure during
static pressure reset control. The static pressure reset for the
calculation cannot be larger than the supply air static set point
(SPSP).
The calculation is as follows:
(Static Pressure Reset/SPSP) x (ECONOSPR – ECONOMIN)
As an example, the static pressure set point (SPSP) =
1.5 in. wg. The current static pressure reset is set to 0.5 in. wg.
The settings for ECONOSPR = 50% and ECONOMIN = 20%.
Therefore, the amount to add to the economizer’s
ECONOMIN configuration is: (0.5/1.5) x (50-20) = 10%. In
effect, for the positioning of the economizer, ECONOMIN
would now be replaced by ECONOMIN + 10%.
Static Pressure PID Config (
S.PID) — Static pressure PID
configuration can be accessed under this heading in the Con-
figuration
→
SP submenu. Under most operating conditions the
control PID factors will not require any adjustment and the
factory defaults should be used. If persistent static pressure
fluctuations are detected, small changes to these factors may
improve performance. Decreasing the factors generally reduce
the responsiveness of the control loop, while increasing the
factors increase its responsiveness. Note the existing settings
before making changes, and seek technical assistance from
Carrier before making significant changes to these factors.

SP.TM) — This is the
number of seconds between duct static pressure readings taken
by the ComfortLink PID routine.
Static Pressure Proportional Gain (S.PID

SP.P) — This is
the proportional gain for the static pressure control PID control
loop.
Static Pressure Integral Gain (S.PID
→
SP.I) — This is the
integral gain for the static pressure control PID control loop.
Static Pressure Derivative Gain (S.PID
→
SP.D) — This is the
derivative gain for the static pressure control PID control loop.
IGV Actuator Configs (
ACT.C) — Every actuator used in the
Z Series control system has its own unique serial number. The
rooftop control uses this serial number to communicate with
the actuator over the local equipment network (LEN). These
serial numbers are programmed at the factory and should not
need changing. Should field replacement of an actuator
become necessary, it will be necessary to configure the serial
numbers of the new actuator. Five individual numbers make up
this serial number and these can be programmed to match the
serial number of the actuator in its “IGV Actuator Configs”
group, ACT.C (SN.1, SN.2, SN.3, SN.4, SN.5).
NOTE: The serial numbers for all LEN actuators can be found
inside the control doors of the unit as well as on the actuator
itself. If an actuator is replaced in the field, it is a good idea
to remove the additional peel-off serial number sticker on
the actuator and use it to replace the old one inside the
control panel doors. The format for the overall serial number
is 111-222-333-444-555, where each of these segments can
be 1, 2 or 3 digits in length. Valid numbers are in the range
1-255.
IGV Serial Number 1 (ACT.C
→
SN.1) — This variable records
the first of the five segments of the IGV digital LEN actuator
serial number. The complete serial number is used by the
ComfortLink controls to communicate with the actuator.
IGV Serial Number 2 (ACT.C
→
SN.2) — This variable records
the second segment of the IGV actuator serial number.
IGV Serial Number 3 (ACT.C
→
SN.3) — This variable records
the third segment of the IGV actuator serial number.
→
IGV Serial Number 4 (ACT.C
SN.4) — This variable records
the fourth segment of the IGV actuator serial number.
IGV Serial Number 5 (ACT.C
→
SN.5) — This variable records
the fifth segment of the IGV actuator serial number.
IGV Control Angle Low Limit (ACT.C
→
C.A.LM) — The IGV
actuator learns what its end stops are though a calibration at the
factory. Field-installed actuators may be calibrated in the
Service Test mode. When an actuator learns its end stops
through this internal calibration, it remembers what its “control
angle range” is. From then on, the actuator will resolve this
control angle and express its operation in a percentage (%) of
this learned range.
If the IGV has not learned a sufficient control angle range
during calibration, it will be unable to control itself properly.
For this reason the IGV actuator used in the Z Series control
system has a configurable control angle alarm low limit in its
“Economizer Actuator Configs” group, ACT.C. (C.A.LM). If
the control angle learned through calibration is less than
Configuration
→SP→
ACT.C→C.A.LM, an alert will occur
and the actuator will not function.
NOTE: This configuration does not typically need adjustment.
It is configurable for the small number of jobs which may
require a custom solution or workaround.

IAQ
air quality sensor location on the CEM board to perform static
pressure reset via an external 4-20 mA input. Enabling this
sensor will give the user the ability to reset from 0 to 3-in. wg
of static pressure. The reset will apply to the supply static
pressure set point (Configuration
→SP→
SP.SP), where 4 mA
= 0-in. wg and 20 mA = 3-in. wg.
As an example, the static pressure reset input is measuring
6 mA, and the input is resetting 2 mA of its 16 mA control
range. The 4 to 20 mA range corresponds directly to the 0 to
3 in. wg of reset. Therefore 2 mA reset is 2/16 * 3-in. wg =
0.375-in. wg of reset. If the static pressure set point (SP.SP) =
1.5-in. wg, then the static pressure control point for the system
will be reset 1.5 – 0.375 = 1.125-in. wg.
For third party 4 to 20 mA SP reset, wire the input to TB203
terminals 6 and 7.
For reset via a connected ComfortID™ system, the Linkage
Coordinator terminal monitors the primary-air damper position
of all the terminals in the system. It then calculates the amount of
supply static pressure reduction necessary to cause the most
open damper in the system to open more than the minimum
value (60%) but not more than the maximum value (90% or negligible static pressure drop). This is a dynamic calculation, which
occurs every two minutes whenever the system is operating. It
ensures that the supply static is sufficient to supply the required
airflow at the worst case terminal but not more than necessary, so
that the air terminals do not have to operate with a pressure drop
greater than required to maintain the airflow set point of each
individual terminal in the system. As the system operates, if the
most open damper opens more than 90%, the system recalculates the pressure reduction variable and Configuration
→
SENS→SP.RS, the amount of reset, is reduced. If the most
→
UNIT
open damper closes to less than 60%, the system recalculates the
pressure reduction variable and SP.RS is increased.
With this system, one needs to enter as the static pressure set
point SP.SP either a maximum duct design pressure or maxi-
mum equipment pressure, whichever is less. The system will
63
determine the actual set point required and deliver the required
airflow to every terminal under the current load conditions. As
the conditions and airflow requirements at each terminal
change throughout the operating period, so will SP.RS and the
unit’s effective static pressure set point.
In the unlikely chance that both static pressure reset control
signals are simultaneously present, the CCN signal will take
precedence.
RELATED POINTS — These points represent static pressure

to check on the actual speed of the VFD. This may be helpful
in some cases for troubleshooting.
IGV Actuator Current Pos (

the current position of the supply fan inlet guide vanes. This
may be helpful in some cases for troubleshooting.
IGV Act. Commanded Pos (

the commanded position of the supply fan inlet guide vanes.
By comparing this to the actual position of the guide vanes, this
may be helpful in some cases for troubleshooting.
Fan Status Monitoring
GENERAL — The Z Series ComfortLink controls offer the
capability to detect a failed supply fan through either a duct
static pressure transducer or an accessory discrete switch. The
fan status switch is an accessory that allows for the monitoring
of a discrete switch, which trips above a differential pressure
drop across the supply fan. For any unit with a factory-installed
duct static pressure sensor, it is possible to measure duct
pressure rise directly, which removes the need for a differential
switch. Any unit with an installed supply fan VFD or inlet
guide vanes will have the duct static pressure sensor as
standard.
SETTING UP THE SYSTEM — The fan status monitoring
configurations are located in Configuration
Table 54.

0 - NONE — No switch or monitoring
1 - SWITCH — Use of the fan status switch
2 - SP RISE — Monitoring of the supply duct pressure.
Fan Fail Shuts Down Unit (
SFS.S) — This configuration
will configure the unit to shut down on a supply fan status fail
or simply alert the condition and continue to run. When configured to YES, the control will shut down the unit if supply fan
status monitoring fails and send out an alarm. If set to no, the
control will not shut down the unit if supply fan status monitoring fails but send out an alert.
SUPPLY FAN STATUS MONITORING LOGIC — Regardless of whether the user is monitoring a discrete switch or is
monitoring static pressure, the timings for both techniques are
the same and rely upon the configuration of static pressure
control. The configuration that determines static pressure
control is Configuration
→SP→
SP.CF. If this configuration is
set to 0 (none), a fan failure condition must wait 60 continuous
seconds before taking action. If this configuration is 1 or 2
(VFD or IGV), a fan failure condition must wait 3 continuous
minutes before taking action.
If the unit is configured to monitor a fan status switch
(SFS.M = 1), and if the supply fan commanded state does not
match the supply fan status switch for 3 continuous minutes,
then a fan status failure has occurred.
If the unit is configured for supply duct pressure monitoring
(SFS.M = 2), then
• If the supply fan is requested ON and the static pressure
reading is not greater than 0.2 in. wg for 3 continuous
minutes, a fan failure has occurred.
• If the supply fan is requested OFF and the static pressure
reading is not less than 0.2-in. wg for 3 continuous min-
utes, a fan failure has occurred.
Dirty Filter Switch — The unit can be equipped with a
field-installed accessory dirty filter switch. The switch is located
in the filter section. If a dirty filter switch is not installed, the
switch input is configured to read “clean” all the time.
To enable the sensor for dirty filter monitoring set
Configuration
state of the filter status switch can be read at Inputs
FLT.S. See Table 55.
Monitoring of the filter status switch is disabled in the
Service Test mode and when the supply fan is not commanded
on. If the fan is on and the unit is not in a test mode and the
filter status switch reads “dirty” for 2 continuous minutes, an
alert is generated. Recovery from this alert is done through a
clearing of all alarms or after cleaning the filter and the switch
reads “clean” for 30 seconds.
NOTE: The filter switch should be adjusted to allow for the
operating cfm and the type of filter. Refer to the accessory
installation instructions for information on adjusting the switch.
Economizer — The economizer control is used to manage
the outside and return air dampers of the unit to provide ventilation air as well as free cooling based on several configuration
options. This section contains a description of the economizer
and its ability to provide free cooling. See the section on indoor
air quality for more information on setting up and using the
economizer to perform demand controlled ventilation (DCV).
See the Third Party Control section for a description on how to
take over the operation of the economizer through external
control.
The economizer system also permits this unit to perform
smoke control functions based on external control switch
inputs. Refer to the Smoke Control Modes section for detailed
discussions.
Economizer control can be based on automatic control
algorithms using unit-based set points and sensor inputs. This
economizer control system can also be managed through external logic systems.
The economizer system is a factory-installed option. This
option includes a factory-installed enthalpy control device to
determine the changeover condition that permits free cooling
operation. This unit can also have the following devices
installed to enhance economizer control:
• Outside air humidity sensor
• Return air humidity sensor
• Outside airflow control
NOTE: All these options require the controls expansion mod-
ule (CEM).
The Z Series economizer damper is managed by a communicating actuator motor(s) over the unit’s Local Equipment
Network (LEN). This provides the ability of the control system
to monitor, diagnose and report the health and operation of the
actuator and damper system to the local display and CCN
network, thus providing extensive diagnostic tools to servicers.

Economizer Maximum Position (
EC.MX) — The upper limit of the economizer may be limited by setting EC.MX. It defaults to 98% to avoid problems associated with slight changes
in the economizer damper’s end stop over time. Typically this
will not need to be adjusted.
Economizer Trim for Sum Z? (
E.TRM) — Sum Z is the
adaptive cooling control algorithm used for multiple stages
of mechanical cooling capacity. The configuration option,
E.TRM is typically set to Yes, and allows the economizer to
modulate to the same control point (Sum Z) that is used to
control capacity staging. The advantage is lower compressor
cycling coupled with tighter temperature control. Setting this
option to No will cause the economizer, if it is able to provide
free cooling, to open to the Economizer Max. Position
(EC.MX) during mechanical cooling.
ECONOMIZER OPERATION — There are four potential
elements which are considered concurrently which determine
whether the economizer is able to provide free cooling:
1. Dry bulb changeover (outside-air temperature qualification)
2. Enthalpy switch (discrete control input monitoring)
constantly compares its outside-air temperature reading against
the high temperature OAT lockout (OAT.L). If the temperature
reads above OAT.L, the economizer will not be allowed to per-
form free cooling.
NOTE: If the user wishes to disable the enthalpy switch from
running concurrently, a field-supplied jumper must be installed
between TB201 terminals 3 and 4.
Enthalpy Switch

— The state of the enthalpy switch can be
→
GEN.I→ENTH. Enthalpy switches are
installed as standard on all Z Series rooftops. When the switch
reads high, free cooling will be disallowed.
The enthalpy switch opens (reads high) when the outdoor
enthalpy is above 24 Btu/lb or dry bulb temperature is above
70 F and will close when the outdoor enthalpy is below
23 Btu/lb or the dry bulb temperature is below 69.5 F.
NOTE: The enthalpy switch has both a low and a high output.
To use this switch as designed the control must be connected to
the low output. Additionally there is a switch logic setting for
the enthalpy switch under Configuration
→
SW.LG→ENT.L.
This setting must be configured to closed (CLSE) to work properly when connected to the low output of the enthalpy switch.
There are two jumpers under the cover of the enthalpy
switch. One jumper determines the mode of the enthalpy
switch/receiver. The other is not used. For the enthalpy switch,
the factory setting is M1 and should not need to be changed. See
Fig. 8 for a diagram showing the settings on the enthalpy switch.

The enthalpy switch may also be field converted to a differential enthalpy switch by field installing an enthalpy sensor
(33CSENTSEN or HH57ZC001). The enthalpy switch/receiver remains installed in its factory location to sense outdoor air
enthalpy. The additional enthalpy sensor (33CSENTSEN) is
mounted in the return airstream to measure return air enthalpy.
The enthalpy control jumper must be changed from M1 to M2
for differential enthalpy control. For the 2-wire return air enthalpy sensor, connect power to the Vin input and signal to the
4-20 loop input. See Fig. 8 for diagram showing the settings
and inputs on the enthalpy switch.
There is another way to accomplish differential enthalpy
control when both an outdoor and return air relative humidity
sensor are present. See Economizer Changeover Select section
below for further information.
ECONOMIZER CHANGEOVER SELECT (E.SEL) — The
control is capable of performing any one of the following
changeover types in addition to both the dry bulb lockout and
the standard external input:
— As both return air and
outside air temperature sensors are installed as standard on
these units, the user may select this option, E.SEL = 1, to
perform a qualification of return and outside air in the enabling/
disabling of free cooling. If this option is selected and outsideair temperature is greater than return-air temperature, free
cooling will not be allowed.
Outdoor Enthalpy Changeover
— This option should be used
in climates with higher humidity conditions. The Z Series
control can use an enthalpy switch or enthalpy sensor, or the
standard installed outdoor dry bulb sensor and an accessory
relative humidity sensor to calculate the enthalpy of the air.

If the user selects one of the Honeywell curves, A,B,C or D,

diagram of these curves on a psychrometric chart.

If the user selects OA.E.C = 5, a direct compare of outdoor

NOTE: If the user wishes to disable the standard enthalpy
control from running concurrently, a field-supplied jumper
must be installed between TB201 terminals 3 and 4.
Differential Enthalpy Changeover
— This option compares
the outdoor-air enthalpy to the return air enthalpy and chooses
the option with the lowest enthalpy. This option should be
used in climates with high humidity conditions. This option
uses both humidity sensors and dry bulb sensors to calculate
the enthalpy of the outdoor and return air. An accessory
outdoor air humidity sensor (ORH.S) and return air humidity
sensor (RRH.S) are used. The outdoor air relative humidity
sensor config (ORH.S) and return air humidity sensor config
(Configuration
→
SENS→RRH.S) must be enabled.
NOTE: If the user wishes to disable the standard enthalpy
control from running concurrently, a field-supplied jumper
must be installed between TB201 terminals 3 and 4.
Outdoor Dewpoint Limit Check
— If an outdoor relative
humidity sensor is installed, the control is able to calculate the
66
outdoor air dewpoint temperature and will compare this
temperature against the outside air dewpoint temperature
limit configuration (Configuration
→
ECON→O.DEW). If the
outdoor air dewpoint temperature is greater than O.DEW, free
cooling will not be allowed. Fig. 10 shows a horizontal limit
line in the custom curve of the psychrometric chart. This is the
outdoor air dewpoint limit boundary.
Custom Psychrometric Curves
— Refer to the psychrometric
chart and the standard Honeywell A-D curves in Fig. 9. The
curves start from the bottom and rise vertically, angle to the left
and then fold over. This corresponds to the limits imposed by
dry bulb changeover, outdoor enthalpy changeover and
outdoor dewpoint limiting respectively. Therefore, it is now
possible to create any curve desired with the addition of one
outdoor relative humidity sensor and the options for
changeover now available. See Fig. 10 for an example of a
custom curve constructed on a psychrometric chart.
Configuring the Economizer to Communicate Via Actuator
Serial Number — Every actuator used in the Z Series control
system has its own unique serial number. The rooftop control
uses this serial number to communicate with the actuator over
the local equipment network (LEN). These serial numbers are
programmed at the factory and should not need changing.
Should field replacement of an actuator become necessary, it
will be required to configure the serial numbers of the new
actuator. Five individual numbers make up this serial number
and these can be programmed to match the serial number of the
actuator in its Economizer Actuator Configs group, ACT.C
(SN1.1, SN1.2, SN1.3, SN1.4, SN1.5, SN2.1, SN2.2, SN2.3,SN2.4, SN2.5).
NOTE: The serial numbers for all LEN actuators can be found
inside the control doors of the unit as well as on the actuator
itself. If an actuator is replaced in the field, it is a good idea to
remove the additional peel-off serial number sticker on the
actuator and cover up the old one inside the control doors.

Control Angle Alarm Configuration
tuator determines its end stops through a calibration at the
factory. Field-installed actuators may be calibrated in the
Service Test mode. When an actuator learns its end stops
through calibration, it also determines its control angle. The
actuator will resolve this control angle and express its operation
in a percent (%) of this learned range.
If the economizer has not learned a sufficient control angle
during calibration, the economizer damper will be unable
to control ventilation and free cooling. For this reason the
economizer actuator used in the Z Series control system has a
configurable control angle alarm low limit (Configuration
→
ECON→ACT.C→C.A.L1 or C.A.L2). If the control angle
learned through calibration is less than C.A.L1 or C.A.L2, an
alert will occur and the actuator will not function.
NOTE: This configuration does not typically need adjustment.
It is configurable for the small number of jobs which may
require a custom solution or workaround.
UNOCCUPIED ECONOMIZER FREE COOLING — This
Free Cooling function is used to start the supply fan and use
the economizer to bring in outside air when the outside
temperature is cool enough to pre-cool the space. This is done
to delay the need for mechanical cooling when the system
enters the occupied period. This function requires the use of a
space temperature sensor.
When configured, the economizer will modulate during an
unoccupied period and attempt to maintain space temperature
to the occupied cooling set point. Once the need for cooling has
been satisfied during this cycle, the fan will be stopped.
Configuring the economizer for Unoccupied Economizer
Free Cooling is done in the UEFC group. There are three
configuration options, FC.CF, FC.TM and FC.LO.
Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling Configuration
(FC.CF) — This option is used to configure the type of unoccupied economizer free cooling control that is desired.
0 = disable unoccupied economizer free cooling
1 = perform unocc. economizer free cooling as available dur-
ing the entire unoccupied period.
2 = perform unocc. economizer free cooling as available,
FC.TM minutes before the next occupied period.
Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling Time Configuration
(FC.TM) — This option is a configurable time period, prior to
the next occupied period, that the control will allow unoccupied economizer free cooling to operate. This option is only
applicable when FC.CF = 2.
Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling Outside Lockout
Temperature (FC.LO) — This configuration option allows
the user to select an outside-air temperature below which unoccupied free cooling is not allowed. This is further explained in
the logic section.
Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling Logic
ing qualifications that must be true for unoccupied free cooling
to operate:
• Unit configured for an economizer
• Space temperature sensor enabled and sensor reading
within limits
• Unit in the unoccupied mode
• FC.CF set to 1 or FC.CF set to 2 and control is within
FC.TM minutes of the next occupied period
• Not in the Temperature Compensated Start mode
• Not in a cooling mode
• Not in a heating mode
• Not in a tempering mode
• Outside-air temperature sensor reading within limits
• Economizer would be allowed to cool if the fan were
requested and in a cool mode
•OAT > FC.LO (1.0° F hysteresis applied)
• Unit not in a fire smoke mode

• No fan failure when configured to for unit to shut down
on a fan failure
If all of the above conditions are satisfied:
Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling will start when both of
the following conditions are true:
{SPT > (OCSP + 2)} AND {SPT > (OAT + 8)}
The Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling Mode will stop
when either of the following conditions are true:
{SPT < OCSP} OR {SPT < (OAT + 3)} where SPT = Space
Temperature and OCSP = Occupied Cooling Set Point.
When the Unoccupied Economizer Free Cooling mode is
active, the supply fan is turned on and the economizer damper
modulated to control to the supply air set point (Setpoints
SASP) plus any supply air reset that may be applied (Inputs
RSET→SA.S.R).
OUTDOOR AIR CFM CONTROL — If an outdoor air cfm
flow station has been installed, the economizer is able to
provide minimum ventilation based on cfm, instead of
damper position. The outdoor air cfm reading can be found in
Inputs
→
must guarantee a certain amount of cfm at any time for ventilation purposes. If the outdoor air cfm measured is less than the
current calculated cfm minimum position, then the economizer
will attempt to open until the outdoor air cfm is greater than or
equal to this cfm minimum position. The following options are
used to program outside air cfm control.
Outdoor Air Cfm Sensor Enable

minimum cfm position and creates a range (ECMINCFM to
ECMINCFM ± OACFM_DB) where the economizer will not
attempt to adjust to maintain the minimum cfm position.
Increasing this deadband value may help to slow down excessive economizer movement when attempting to control to a
minimum position at the expense of bringing in more ventilation air than desired.
ECONOMIZER OPERATION CONFIGURATION — The
configuration items in the E.CFG menu group affect how
the economizer modulates when attempting to follow an
economizer cooling set point. Typically, they will not need
adjustment. In fact, it is strongly advised not to adjust these
configuration items from their default settings without first
consulting a service engineering representative.
automatically slow down the economizer actuator’s rate of
travel as outside air temperature decreases.
ECONOMIZER DIAGNOSTIC HELP — Because there are
so many conditions which might disable the economizer from
being able to provide free cooling, the control has a display
table to identify these potentially disabling sources. The user
can check ACTV, the “Economizer Active” flag. If this flag is
set to Yes there is no reason to check DISA (Economizer
Disabling Conditions). If the flag is set to No, this means that at
least one or more of the flags under the group DISA are set
to Yes and the user can discover what is preventing the economizer from performing free cooling by checking the table.

Economizer Suction Pressure Reset for Two-Stage
Cooling — If the unit’s control type is set to either 2-stage thermostat or 2-stage space temperature control, then there is no
cooling control point. Stages 1 and 2 are brought on based on
demand, irrespective of the evaporator discharge temperature.
In this case, the economizer monitors suction pressure and
resets the economizer control point accordingly in order to
protect the unit from freezing. For those conditions when the
economizer opens up fully but is not able to make set point, and
then a compressor comes on, it is conceivable that the coil
might freeze. This can be indirectly monitored by checking suction pressure. Rather than fail a circuit, the control will attempt
to protect the unit by resetting the economizer control point
until the suction pressure rises out of freezing conditions.
If either circuit’s suction pressure drops to within 5 psig
of the low suction pressure trip point, the control will start
adding reset to the economizer control point if it is active. It
will be possible to reset the control point upwards, 10 degrees
(2 degrees per psig), between the low suction pressure trip
point of 48 psig and 5 psig above it. If this does not work, and if
the suction pressure drops below the trip point, then the control
will further reset the control point 1 degree every 15 seconds
up to a maximum of 10 degrees. The resulting effect will be to
warm up the mixed air entering the evaporator, thereby raising
the suction pressure.
Building Pressure Control — This control sequence
provides control of the building pressure through the modulating flow rate functions of one of the modulating power exhaust
options or through management of the return fan option. This
function also provides control of the constant volume 2-stage
power exhaust option. See below for available power exhaust

BUILDING PRESSURE CONFIGURATION — The building pressure configurations are found at the local display under
Configuration
Building Pressure Config (
→
BP. See Table 58.
BP.CF) — This configuration se-
lects the type of building pressure control.
• BP.CF = 0, No building pressure control
• BP.CF = 1, constant volume two-stage exhaust based on
economizer position
• BP.CF = 2, Modulating building pressure control based
on building pressure sensor
• BP.CF = 3, VFD controlling two exhaust fan motors
• BP.CF = 4, VFD control of one of the two exhaust fan
motors (sizes 075-105 with high-capacity exhaust option)
• BP.CF = 5, used on sizes 075-105 with return/exhaust
fan option
Building Pressure Sensor (
BP.S) — This configuration allows the reading of a building pressure sensor when enabled.
This is automatically enabled when BP.CF = 2, 3, 4 or 5.
Building Pressure (+/–) Range (
BP.R) — This configuration
establishes the range in in. wg that a 4 to 20 mA sensor will be
scaled to. The control only allows sensors that measure both
positive and negative pressure.
Building Pressure SETP (
BP.SP) — This set point is the
building pressure control set point. If the unit is configured for
a type of modulating building pressure control, then this is the
set point that the control will control to.
BP Setpoint Offset (
BP.SO) — For building pressure configurations BP.CF=2, 3, and 4, this is the offset below the building
pressure set point that the building pressure must fall below to
turn off power exhaust control.
Power Exhaust on Setp.1 (
BP.P1) — When configured for
building pressure control type BP.CF = 1 (constant volume
two-stage control), the control will turn on the first power
exhaust fan when the economizer’s position exceeds this set
point.
Power Exhaust on Setp.2 (
BP.P2) — When configured for
building pressure control type BP.CF = 1 (constant volume
two-stage control), the control will turn on the second power
exhaust fan when the economizer’s position exceeds this set
point.
VFD/Act. Fire Speed/Pos (
BP.FS) — For BP.CF = 2, 3, 4,
and 5, this configuration is the VFD speed position override
when the control is in the purge and evacuation smoke control
modes.
VFD/Act. Min Speed/Pos (
BP.MN) — For BP.CF = 2, 3, 4,
and 5, this configuration is the minimum VFD speed/actuator
position during building pressure control.
VFD Maximum Speed/Pos (
BP.MX) — For BP.CF = 3 and
5, this configuration is the maximum VFD speed during building pressure control.
BP 1 Actuator Max Pos. (
BP.1M) — For BP.CF = 2, this
configuration is the maximum actuator no. 1 position during
building pressure control.
BP 2 Actuator Max Pos. (
BP.2M) — For BP.CF = 2, this
configuration is the maximum actuator no. 2 position during
building pressure control.
BP Hi Cap VFD Clamp Val. (
BP.CL) — For BP.CF = 4, this
configuration is a limit which creates a deadband which controls the action of the second power exhaust relay.
Fan Track Learn Enable (
FT.CF) — For BP.CF = 5, this
return/exhaust control configuration selects whether the fan
tracking algorithm will make corrections over time and add a
learned offset to FT.ST. If this configuration is set to No, the
unit will try to control the delta cfm value between the supply
and return VFDs only based on FT.ST.
Fan Track Learn
Rate (FT.TM) — For BP.CF = 5, this return/
exhaust control configuration is a timer that affects corrections
to the delta cfm operation. The smaller this value, the more often corrections may be made based on building pressure error.
This configuration is only valid when FT.CF = Yes.
Fan Track Initial DCFM (
FT.ST) — For BP.CF = 5, this
return/exhaust control configuration is the start point upon
which corrections (offset) are made over time when FT.CF =
Yes. It is the constant control point for delta cfm control when
FT.CF = No.
Fan Track Max Clamp (
FT.MX) — For BP.CF = 5, this
return/exhaust control configuration is the maximum positive
delta cfm control value allowed unless outdoor air cfm control
is available and then the delta cfm control value would
be clamped to the outdoor air cfm value directly (see the
Economizer section for a description of outdoor air cfm
configuration).
Fan Track Max Correction (
FT.AD) — For BP.CF = 5, this
return/exhaust control configuration is the maximum correction allowed every time a correction is made based on FT.TM.
This configuration is only valid when FT.CF = Yes.
Fan Track Internal EEPROM (
FT.OF) — For BP.CF = 5,
this return/exhaust control internal EEPROM value is a learned
correction that is stored in non-volatile RAM and adds to the
offset when FT.CF = Yes. This value is stored once per day
after the first correction. This configuration is only valid when
FT.CF = Yes.
Fan Track Internal Ram (
FT.RM) — For BP.CF = 5, this
return/exhaust control internal value is not a configuration but a
run time correction that adds to the offset throughout the day
when FT.CF = Yes. This value is only valid when FT.CF =
Ye s .
Fan Track Reset Internal (

Supply Air Cfm Config (

or forward curve supply air fan is being used. This information
is then used by the control to determine the correct cfm tables
to be used when measuring supply air cfm.

relay 1 is energized, turning on the first stage. A 60-second timer is initialized. If the economizer falls 5% below the BP.P1,
then the power exhaust fan relay is turned off. If the economizer

Configuration→BP→BP.CF= 2 (Modulating Power Exhaust)
— Control is accomplished with two LEN communicating
actuators in tandem and one exhaust fan relay. If building
pressure (Pressures
→
AIR.P→BP) rises above the building
pressure set point (BP.SP) and the supply fan is on, building
pressure control is initialized. Thereafter, if the supply fan relay
goes off or if the building pressure drops below the BP.SP
minus the building pressure set point offset (BP.SO) for 5
continuous minutes, building pressure control will be stopped.
Any time building pressure control becomes active, the exhaust
fan relay turns on, starting the dual exhaust fan motors. After
the exhaust fan relay turns on, control is performed with a PID
loop where:
Error = BP – BP.SP
K = 1000 * BP.TM / 60 (normalize the PID control for run rate)
P = K * BP.P * (error)
I = K * BP.I * (error) + “I” calculated last time through the PID
D = K * BP.D * (error – error computed last time through the
PID)

the supply fan relay goes off or if the building pressure drops below the BP.SP minus the building pressure set point offset
(BP.SO) for 5 continuous minutes, building pressure control
will be stopped. The 5-minute timer will continue to re-initialize
while the VFD is commanded to a position > 0%. If the building
pressure falls below the set point, the VFD will slow down automatically. Any time building pressure control becomes active,
the exhaust fan relay turns on which energizes the exhaust fan
VFD. Control is performed with a PID loop where:
Error = BP – BP.SP
K = 1000 * BP.TM/60 (normalize the PID control for run rate)
P = K * BP.P * (error)

→
FA NS→P. E . 2 ) which controls a single speed
fan which is equal in capacity to the VFD running at full speed.
71
Controlling high-capacity power exhaust differs from nor-
mal power exhaust in the following ways:
• The integral term is not used. The percentile commanded
position of the VFD is used instead.
• A “clamp percent” configuration is added (BP.CL) to
create a deadband that will assist the algorithm in
controlling the second power exhaust relay.
If building pressure (BP) rises above the building pressure
set point (BP.SP) and the supply fan is on, building pressure
control is initiated. Thereafter if the supply fan relay goes off or
if the building pressure drops below the BP.SP minus the
building pressure set point offset (BP.SO) for 5 continuous
minutes, building pressure control will be stopped. The
5-minute timer will continue to reset while the VFD is commanded to a position > 0%. If the building pressure falls below
the set point, the VFD will shut down automatically. Any time
building pressure control becomes active, the exhaust fan relay
turns on which energizes the exhaust fan VFD.
After the exhaust fan relay turns on, PID control ensues without an “I” term:
Error = BP – BP.SP
K = 1000 * BP.TM / 60 (normalize the PID control for run rate)
P = K * BP.P * (error)
D = K * BP.D * (error - error computed last time through the
PID)
VFD control signal (clamped between 0 and 100%) = VFD
Output last time through + (P + D)
NOTE: The sum of P + D will be clamped on any timed calcu-
lation to an internally calculated value which guarantees the
VFD is not commanded more or less an amount, than it cannot
achieve before the next time VFD capacity is again calculated.
Bringing the single speed fan (P. E . 2 ) ON and OFF is coordinated with the VFD speed. When building pressure first
becomes active, P. E . 2 is OFF, P. E . 1 is ON and the VFD is
allowed to climb to 100%. BP.CL will be used to act as hyster-
esis so that when the P + D term is evaluated and it exceeds
BP.CL, the control will go through a one-minute period hold
off time where the VFD is commanded to BP.CL, and P. E . 2 is
brought on. After the transition to P. E . 2 ON is complete, the
control will continue to control the VFD from BP.CL%. If BP
rises, the control will speed up the VFD. Should the VFD drop
to 0%, and the next time through the PID the P + D term calculation is less than – BP.CL, the control will go through another
one-minute PID hold off period where P. E . 2 is commanded
OFF and the VFD is commanded to 100 – BP.CL.
Configuration
— Fan tracking is the method of control used on plenum return
fan option. The fan tracking algorithm controls the exhaust/
return fan VFD and the exhaust fan relay. The ComfortLink™
controls use a flow station to measure the flow of both the supply and the return fans. The speed of the return fan is controlled
by maintaining a delta cfm (usually with supply airflow being
greater of the two) between the two fans. The building pressure
is controlled by maintaining this delta cfm between the two
fans. In general, the greater the delta between supply airflow
and return airflow, the higher the building pressure will be.
Conversely, as the return airflow quantity increases above
the supply airflow, the lower the building pressure will be.
Whenever there is a request for the supply fan (or there is the
presence of the IGC feedback on gas heat units), the return fan
is started. The delta cfm is defined as S.CFM – R.CFM. The
return fan VFD is controlled by a PID on the error of delta cfm
actual from delta cfm set point. If the error is positive the drive
will increase speed. If the error is negative the drive will
decrease speed.
NOTE: These configurations are used only if Fan Tracking
Learning is enabled. When Fan Tracking Learning is enabled,
the control will adjust the delta cfm (FT.ST) between the
→BP→
BP.CF =5 (Return/Exhaust Control)
supply and return fan if the building pressure deviates from the
Building Pressure Set Point (BP.SP). Periodically, at the rate
set by the fan track learn rate (FT.TM), the delta cfm is
adjusted upward or downward with a maximum adjustment
at a given instance to be no greater than fan track max
correction (FT.AD). The delta cfm can not ever be adjusted
greater than or less than the fan track initial delta cfm (FT.ST)
than by the Fan Track Max Clamp (FT.MX).
CONFIGURING THE BUILDING PRESSURE ACTUATORS (BP.CF = 2) TO COMMUNICATE VIA ACTUATOR
SERIAL NUMBER — Every actuator used in the Z Series
control system has its own unique serial number. The rooftop
control uses this serial number to communicate with the
actuator over the local equipment network (LEN). These serial
numbers are programmed at the factory and should not need
changing. Should field replacement of an actuator become
necessary, it will be necessary to configure the serial numbers
of the new actuator. Five individual numbers make up each serial number and these can be programmed to match the serial
number of the actuators in the building pressure actuator
configurations group, ACT.C.SN.3, SN.4, SN.5).
NOTE: The serial numbers for all LEN actuators can be found
inside the control doors of the unit as well as on the actuator
itself. If an actuator is replaced in the field, it is a good idea to
remove the additional peel-off serial number sticker on the
actuator and cover up the old one inside the control doors.
CONTROL ANGLE ALARM CONFIGURATION C.ALM
(BP.CF = 2) — The building pressure actuators learn what its
end stops are though a calibration at the factory. Field-installed
actuators may be calibrated in the Service Test mode. When an
actuator learns its end stops through calibration, it stores the
control angle. The actuator will resolve this control angle and
express its operation in a percent (%) of this learned range.
If a building pressure actuator has not learned a sufficient
control angle during calibration, the actuator will be unable to
control building pressure. For this reason the building pressure
actuators used in the Z Series control system have configurable
control angle alarm low limits in the Building Pressure Actuator Configurations group, ACT.C
If the control angle learned through calibration is less than
C.A.LM, an alert will occur and the actuator will not function.
NOTE: This configuration does not typically need adjustment.
It is configurable for the small number of jobs which may
require a custom solution or workaround.

Smoke Control Modes — There are four smoke con-
trol modes that can be used to control smoke within areas serviced by the unit: Pressurization mode, Evacuation mode,
Smoke Purge mode, and Fire Shutdown. Evacuation, Pressurization and Smoke Purge modes require the controls expansion
board (CEM). The Fire Shutdown input is located on the main
board (MBB) on terminals TB201-5 and 6. The unit may also
be equipped with a factory-installed return air smoke detector
that is wired to TB201-5,6 and will shut the unit down if a
smoke condition is determined. Field-monitoring wiring can be
connected to terminal TB201-13 and 14 to monitor the smoke
detector. Inputs on the CEM board can be used to put the unit
in the Pressurization, Evacuation, and Smoke Purge modes.
These switches or inputs are connected to TB204 as shown below. Refer to Major System Components section on page 102
for wiring diagrams.
Pressurization — TB204-5 and 6
Evacuation — TB204-7 and 8
Smoke Purge — TB204-9 and 10
Each mode must be energized individually on discrete inputs and the corresponding alarm is initiated when a mode is
activated. The fire system provides a normally closed dry
72
contact closure. Multiple smoke control inputs, sensed by the
control will force the unit into a Fire Shutdown mode.
FIRE SMOKE INPUTS — These discrete inputs can be
found on the local display under Inputs
and complete shutdown of the unit.
Pressurization Mode
— This mode attempts to raise the pressure of a space to prevent smoke infiltration from an adjacent
space. Opening the economizer (thereby closing the return air
damper), shutting down power exhaust and turning the indoor
fan on will increase pressure in the space.
Evacuation Mode
— This mode attempts to lower the pressure of the space to prevent infiltrating an adjacent space with
its smoke. Closing the economizer (thereby opening the returnair damper), turning on the power exhaust and shutting down
the indoor fan decrease pressure in the space.
Smoke Purge Mode
— This mode attempts to draw out
smoke from the space after the emergency condition. Opening
the economizer (thereby closing the return-air damper), turning
on both the power exhaust and indoor fan will evacuate smoke
and bring in fresh air.
AIRFLOW CONTROL DURING THE FIRE/SMOKE
MODES — All non-smoke related control outputs will get
shut down in the fire/smoke modes. Those related to airflow
will be controlled as explained below. The following matrix

Indoor Air Quality Control — The indoor air quality
(IAQ) function will admit fresh air into the space whenever
space air quality sensors detect high levels of CO
.
2
When a space or return air CO
sensor is connected to the
2
unit control, the unit’s IAQ routine allows a demand-based
control for ventilation air quantity, by providing a modulating
outside air damper position that is proportional to CO
level.
2
The ventilation damper position is varied between a minimum
ventilation level (based on internal sources of contaminants
and CO
levels other than from the effect of people) and the
2
maximum design ventilation level (determined at maximum
populated status in the building). Demand Control Ventilation
(DCV) is also available when the ComfortLink™ unit is connected to a CCN system using ComfortID™ terminal controls.
This function also provides alternative control methods for
controlling the amount of ventilation air being admitted,
including fixed outdoor air ventilation rates (measured as cfm),
external discrete sensor switch input and externally generated
proportional signal controls.
The IAQ function requires the installation of the factoryoption economizer system. The DCV sequences also require
the connection of accessory (or field-supplied) space or return
air CO
installed outdoor air cfm option. External control of the
sensors. Fixed cfm rate control requires the factory-
2
ventilation position requires supplemental devices, including a
4 to 20 mA signal, a 10-kilo-ohm potentiometer, or a discrete
switch input, depending on the method selected. Outside air
CO
levels may also be monitored directly and high CO
2
economizer restriction applied when an outdoor air CO2 sensor
is connected. (The outdoor CO2 sensor connection requires
installation of the controls expansion module [CEM].)
The ComfortLink controls have the capability of DCV using an IAQ sensor. The indoor air quality (IAQ) is measured
using a CO
sensor whose measurements are displayed in parts
2
per million (ppm). The IAQ sensor can be field-installed in the
return duct. There is also an accessory space IAQ sensor that
can be installed directly in the occupied space. The sensor must
provide a 4 to 20 mA output signal and must include its own
24-v supply. The sensor connects to TB202 terminals 11 and
12. Be sure to leave the 182-ohm resistor in place on terminals
11 and 12.
OPERATION — The unit’s indoor air quality algorithm modulates the position of the economizer damper between two user
configurations depending upon the relationship between the
IAQ and the outdoor air quality (OAQ). Both of these values
can be read at the Inputs
→
AIR.Q submenu. The lower of these
two configurable positions is referred to as the IAQ Demand
Vent Min Position (IAQ.M), while the higher is referred to as
Economizer Minimum Position (EC.MN). The IAQ.M should
be set to an economizer position that brings in enough fresh air
to remove contaminants and CO
than people. The EC.MN value should be set to an economizer
generated by sources other

generated by all sources including people. The
2
The logic that is used to control the dampers in response to
IAQ conditions is shown in Fig. 11. The ComfortLink controls
will begin to open the damper from the IAQ.M position when
the IAQ level begins to exceed the OAQ level by a configurable amount, which is referred to as Differential Air Quality
Low Limit (DAQ.L).
If OAQ is not being measured, OAQ can be manually configured. It should be set at around 400 to 450 ppm or measured
with a handheld sensor during the commissioning of the unit.
The OAQ reference level can be set using the OAQ Reference
Set Point (OAQ.U). When the differential between IAQ and
OAQ reaches the configurable Diff. Air Quality Hi Limit
(DAQ.H), then the economizer position will be EC.MN.
When the IAQ–OAQ differential is between DAQ.L and
DAQ.H, the control will modulate the damper between IAQ.M
and EC.MN as shown in Fig. 11. The relationship is a linear
relationship but other non-linear options can be used. The
2
73
damper position will never exceed the bounds specified by
IAQ.M and EC.MN during IAQ control.
If the building is occupied and the indoor fan is running and
the differential between IAQ and OAQ is less than DAQ.L, the
economizer will remain at IAQ.M. The economizer will not
close completely. The damper position will be 0 when the fan
is not running or the building is unoccupied. The damper position may exceed EC.MN in order to provide free cooling.
The ComfortLink™ controls are configured for air quality
sensors which provide 4 mA at 0 ppm and 20 mA at 2000 ppm.
If a sensor has a different range, these bounds must be
reconfigured. These pertinent configurations for ranging the air
quality sensors are IQ.R.L, IQ.R.H, OQ.R.L and OQ.R.H. The
bounds represent the PPM corresponding to 4 mA (low) and
20 mA (high) for IAQ and OAQ, respectively.
If OAQ exceeds the OAQ Lockout Value (OAQ.L), then the
economizer will remain at IAQ.M. This is used to limit the use
of outside air which outdoor air CO
OAQ.L limit. Normally a linear control of the damper vs. the
levels are above the
2
IAQ control signal can be used, but the control also supports
non-linear control. Different curves can be used based on the
Diff.IAQ Responsiveness Variable (IAQ.R). See Fig. 12.

PRE-OCCUPANCY PURGE — The control has the option
for a pre-occupancy purge to refresh the air in the space prior to
occupancy.
This feature is enabled by setting Configuration
→
IAQ
→
IAQ.P→IQ.PG to Yes.
The IAQ Purge will operate under the following conditions:
• IQ.PG is enabled
• the unit is in the unoccupied state
• Current Time is valid
• Next Occupied Time is valid
• time is within two hours of the next occupied period
• time is within the purge duration (Configuration

IAQ→IAQ.P→IQ.P.T)
If all of the above conditions are met, the following logic is
used:
If OAT >= IQ.L.O and OAT <= OCSP and economizer is
available then purge will be enabled and the economizer
will be commanded to 100%.
Else, if OAT < IQ.L.O then the economizer will be posi-
tioned to the IAQ Purge LO Temp Min Pos (Configuration

OPTIONAL AIRFLOW STATION — The ComfortLink™
controls are capable of working with a factory-installed optional airflow station that measures the amount of outdoor air entering the economizer. This flow station is intended to measure
ventilation airflows and has a limitation as to the maximum
flow rate it can measure. The limits are 18,000 cfm for sizes
030-050 and 31,000 cfm for sizes 055-105.
All configurations for the outdoor airflow station can be
found in the Configuration

ECON→CFM.C, sub-menu.
For this algorithm to function, the Outdoor Air Cfm Sensor
Configuration (OCF.S.) must be enabled.

values depending on Configuration
and the Configuration

and upon the relationship between the IAQ and the outdoor air

The economizer’s OA CFM Minimum Position Deadband
(O.C.DB) is the deadband range around the outdoor cfm
control point at where the damper control will stop, indicating
the control point has been reached. See the Economizer section
for more information.
Humidification — The Z Series ComfortLink controls
can control a field-supplied and installed humidifier device.
The ComfortLink controls provide two types of humidification
control: A discrete stage control (via a relay contact) and a proportional control type (communicating to a LEN actuator). The
discrete stage control is used to control a single-stage humidifier, (typically a spray pump). The proportional control type is
typically used to control a proportional steam valve serving a
steam grid humidifier.
The ComfortLink controls must be equipped with a controls
expansion module and an accessory space or return air relative
humidity sensor.
If a humidifier using a proportional steam valve is selected,
the Carrier LEN actuator (Carrier Part No. HF23BJ049) must
be adapted to the humidifier manufacturer’s steam valve. Contact Belimo Aircontrols for information on actuator linkage
adapter packages required to mount the LEN actuator on the
specific brand and type of steam valve mounted by the humidifier manufacturer.
The LEN actuator address must be programmed into the
ComfortLink unit’s humidifier actuator serial number variables.
NOTE: If the unit has the IGV option installed, it will be necessary to fabricate a LEN harness extension to connect the
humidifier LEN actuator to the unit’s LEN harness.
SETTING UP THE SYSTEM — These humidity configuration are located in the local displays under ConfigurationHUMD. See Table 60. Related points are shown in Table 61.
Humidifier Control Configuration (
HM.CF) — The humidi-
fier control can be set to the following configurations:
• HM.CF = 0 — No humidity control.
• HM.CF = 1 — Discrete control based on space relative
humidity.
• HM.CF = 2 — Discrete control based on return air rela-
tive humidity.
• HM.CF = 3 — Analog control based on space relative
humidity.
• HM.CF = 4 — Analog control based on return air rela-
tive humidity.

OPERATION — For operation, PID control will be utilized.
The process will run at the rate defined by the Configuration
→
HUMD→H.PID→HM.TM. The first part of humidity
control tests the humidity control configuration and will turn
on corresponding configurations to read space or return air relative humidity. If the supply fan has been ON for 30 seconds
and the space is occupied, then the humidification is started.
Actuator Control
— Control is performed with a generic PID
loop where:
Error = HM.SP – humidity sensor value (SP.RH or RA.RH,
depending on configuration).
The PID terms are calculated as follows:
P = K * HM.P * error
I = K * HM.I * error + “I” last time through
D = K * HM.D * (error – error last time through)
Where K = HM.TM/60 to normalize the effect of changing the
run time rate
Relay Output Control
— If the humidity sensor reading is
greater than the humidity set point then the humidity relay
(Outputs
→
GEN.O→HUM.R) is closed. The relay will open
when the humidity is 2% less than the humidity set point.
CONFIGURING THE HUMIDIFIER ACTUATOR —
Every actuator used in the Z Series control system has its own
unique serial number. The rooftop control uses this serial
number to communicate with the actuator over the local equipment network (LEN). The actuator serial number is located on
a two-part sticker affixed to the side of the actuator housing.
Remove one of the actuator’s serial number labels and paste it
onto the actuator serial number records label located inside
the left-hand access panel at the unit’s control panel. Five
individual numbers make up this serial number. Program the
serial number of the actuator in its Humidifier Actuator
Configurations group, ACT.C (SN.1, SN.2, SN.3, SN.4, SN.5)
NOTE: The serial numbers for all LEN actuators can be found
inside the control doors of the unit as well as on the actuator
itself. If an actuator is replaced in the field, it is a good idea to
remove the additional peel-off serial number sticker on the
actuator and cover up the old one inside the control doors.
Control Angle Alarm
(Configuration→HUMD→ACTC
→
C.A.LM) — The humidifier actuator learns what its end stops
are though a calibration at the factory. Field-installed actuators
may be calibrated in the Service Test mode. When an actuator
learns its end stops through calibration, it determines its control
angle. The actuator will resolve this control angle and express
its operation in a percent (%) of this learned range.
If the humidifier actuator has not learned a sufficient control
angle during calibration, the actuator will be unable to control
humidity. For this reason, the humidifier actuator has a configurable control angle alarm low limit (C.A.LM). If the control
angle learned through calibration is less than C.A.LM, an alert
will occur and the actuator will not function.
NOTE: This configuration does not typically need adjustment.
It is configurable for the small number of jobs which may
require a custom solution or workaround.
Dehumidification and Reheat — The Dehumidifi-
cation function will override comfort condition set points
based on dry bulb temperature and deliver cooler air to the
space in order to satisfy a humidity set point at the space or
return air humidity sensor. The Reheat function will energize a
suitable heating system concurrent with dehumidification
sequence should the dehumidification operation result in
excessive cooling of the space condition.
The dehumidification sequence requires the installation of a
space or return air humidity sensor or a discrete switch input. A
CEM (option or accessory) is required to accommodate an RH
(relative humidity) sensor connection. Reheat is possible when
multiple-step staged gas control option or hydronic heat (option or field-installed coil) is installed. Reheat is also possible
using a heat reclaim coil (field-supplied and installed) or a hot
gas reheat coil (special order, factory-installed).
Dehumidification and reheat control are allowed during
Cooling and Vent modes in the Occupied period.
On constant volume units using thermostat inputs (C.TYP =
3 or 4), the discrete switch input must be used as the dehumidification control input. The commercial Thermidistat™ device
is the recommended accessory device.
SETTING UP THE SYSTEM — The settings for dehumidification can be found at the local display at ConfigurationDEHU. See Table 62.
Dehumidification Configuration (
D.SEL) — The dehumidi-
fication configuration can be set for the following settings:
• D.SEL = 1 — The control will perform both dehumidification and reheat with modulating valve (hydronic).
• D.SEL = 2 — The control will perform dehumidification
and reheat with staged gas only.
• D.SEL = 3 — The control will perform both dehumidification and reheat with third party heat via an alarm relay.
In the case of D.SEL=3, during dehumidification, the
alarm relay will close to convey the need for reheat. A
typical application might be to energize a 3-way valve to
perform hot gas reheat.
Dehumidification Sensor (
D.SEN) — The sensor can be con-
figured for the following settings:
• D.SEN = 1 — Initiated by return air relative humidity
sensor.
• D.SEN = 2 — Initiated by space relative humidity sensor.
• D.SEN = 3 — Initiated by discrete input.
Economizer Disable in Dehum Mode (
D.EC.D) — This
configuration determines economizer operation during Dehumidification mode.
• D.EC.D = YES — Economizer disabled during dehu-
midification (default).
• D.EC.D = NO — Economizer not disabled during dehu-
midification.
Vent Reheat Set Point Select (
D.V.CF) — This configuration
determines how the vent reheat set point is selected.
• D.V.CF = 0 — Reheat follows an offset subtracted from
return air temperature (D.V.RA).
• D.V.CF = 1 — Reheat follows a dehumidification heat
set point (D.V.HT).
Vent Reheat RAT Offset (
D.V.RA) — Set point offset used
only during the vent mode. The air will be reheated to returnair temperature less this offset.
Vent Reheat Set Point
(D.V.HT) — Set point used only dur-
ing the vent mode. The air will be reheated to this set point.
Dehumidify Cool Set Point (
D.C.SP) — This is the dehu-
midification cooling set point.
Dehumidity RH Set Point (
D.RH.S) — This is the dehumidi-
fication relative humidity trip point.
OPERATION — Dehumidification and reheat can only occur
if the unit is equipped with either staged gas or hydronic heat.
Dehumidification without reheat can be done on any unit but

NOTE: If Configuration
either staged gas or hot water valve control will be automatically enabled (Configuration

If a tempering, unoccupied or “mechanical cooling locked
out” HVAC mode is present, dehumidification will be disabled.
An HVAC: Off, Vent or Cool mode must be in effect to launch
either a Reheat or Dehumidification mode.
If an associated sensor responsible for dehumidification
fails, dehumidification will not be attempted (SPRH, RARH).
Initiating a Reheat or Dehumidification Mode
a Reheat mode in the Vent or the Off HVAC mode, or to call
out a Dehumidification mode in a Cool HVAC mode, one of
the following conditions must be true:
• The space is occupied and the humidity is greater than
the relative humidity trip point (D.RH.S).
• The space is occupied and the discrete humidity input is
closed.

• Reheat When Cooling Demand is Present — For reheat
control during dehumidification: If reheat follows an
offset subtracted from return-air temperature (Configu-

then the selected heating control type will operate in the
low heat/modulating mode.
• The heating control point will be whatever the actual
cooling set point would have been (without any supply
air reset applied).
• Reheat During Vent Mode — If configured (Configura-
tion

DEHU→D.V.CF = 0), the heating control point
will be equal to RAT - D.V.RA. If configured (Configu-
ration

DEHU→D.V.CF=1), the heating control point
will be equal to the D.V.HT set point.

NOTE: Temperature compensated start is disabled when these
factors are set to 0.
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATED START LOGIC — The
following conditions must be met for the algorithm to run:
• Unit is in unoccupied state.
• Next occupied time is valid.
• Current time of day is valid.
• Valid space temperature reading is available (sensor or
DAV-Linkage).
The algorithm will calculate a Start Bias time in minutes us-
ing the following equations:
If (space temperature > occupied cooling set point)
Start Bias Time = (space temperature – occupied cooling set
point)* TCS.C
If (space temperature < occupied heating set point)
Start Bias Time = (occupied heating set point – space
temperature)*TCS.H
When the Start Bias Time is greater than zero the algorithm
will subtract it from the next occupied time to calculate the new
start time. When the new start time is reached, the Temperature
Compensated Start mode is set (Operating Modes

Carrier Comfort Network® (CCN) — It is possible
to configure the ComfortLink™ controls to participate as an element of the Carrier Comfort Network (CCN) system directly
from the local display. This section will deal with explaining
the various programmable options which are found under the
CCN sub-menu in the Configuration mode.
The major configurations for CCN programming are locat-

CCNB) — This configuration is the CCN
bus the rooftop is assigned.
CCN Baud Rate (
BAUD) — This configuration is the CCN
baud rate.
CCN Time/Date Broadcast (
TM.DT) — If this configuration
is set to ON, the control will periodically send the time and date
out onto the CCN bus once a minute. If this device is on a CCN
network then it will be important to make sure that only one
device on the bus has this configuration set to ON. If more than

occur.
NOTE: Only the time and date broadcaster can perform
daylight savings time adjustments. Even if the rooftop is stand
alone, the user may want to set this to ON to accomplish the
daylight/savings function.
CCN OAT Broadcast (
OAT.B) — If this configuration is set
to ON, the control will periodically broadcast its outside-air
temperature at a rate of once every 30 minutes.
CCN OARH Broadcast (
ORH.B) — If this configuration is
set to ON, the control will periodically broadcast its outside air
relative humidity at a rate of once every 30 minutes.
CCN OAQ Broadcast (
OAQ.B) — If this configuration is set
to ON, the control will periodically broadcast its outside air
quality reading at a rate of once every 30 minutes.
Global Schedule Broadcast (
G. S . B ) — If this configuration is
set to ON and the schedule number (SCH.N) is between 65 and
99, then the control will broadcast the internal time schedule
once every 2 minutes.
CCN Broadcast Acknowledger (
B.ACK) — If this configuration is set to ON, then when any broadcasting is done on the
bus, this device will respond to and acknowledge. Only one device per bus can be configured for this option.
Schedule Number (
SCH.N) — This configuration determines
what schedule the control may follow.
SCH.N = 0The control is always occupied.
SCH.N = 1The control follows its internal time sched-
ules. The user may enter any number
between 1 and 64 but it will be overwritten
to “1” by the control as it only has one
internal schedule.
SCH.N = 65-99The control is either set up to receive to a
broadcasted time schedule set to this
number or the control is set up to broadcast
its internal time schedule (G. S . B ) to the
network and this is the global schedule
number it is broadcasting. If this is the case,
then the control still follows its internal time
schedules.
Accept Global Holidays? (
HOL.T) — If a device is broadcasting the time on the bus, it is possible to accept the time yet
not accept the global holiday from the broadcast message.
Override Time Limit (
O.T.L) — This configuration allows
the user to decide how long an override occurs when it is initiated. The override may be configured from 1 to 4 hours. If the
time is set to 0, the override function will become disabled.
Timed Override Hours (
OV.EX) — This displays the current
number of hours left in an override. It is possible to cancel an
override in progress by writing “0” to this variable, thereby
removing the override time left.
SPT Override Enabled? (
SPT.O) — If a space sensor is
present, then it is possible to override an unoccupied period by
pushing the override button on the T55 or T56 sensor. This
option allows the user to disable this function by setting this
configuration to NO.
T58 Override Enabled? (
T58.O) — The T58 sensor is a CCN
device that allows cooling/heating set points to be adjusted,
space temperature to be written to the rooftop unit, and the ability to initiate a timed override. This option allows the user to
disable the override initiated from the T58 sensor by setting
this option to NO.
Global Schedule Override? (
GL.OV) — If the control is set
to receive global schedules then it is also possible for the global
schedule broadcaster to call out an override condition as well.
This configuration allows the user to disable the global schedule broadcaster from overriding the control.

Hot Gas Bypass — Hot gas bypass is an automatically
operating system used to limit evaporator suction pressure
Table 69 — Remote Switch Logic Configuration
during periods of low evaporator loading. This system is not
controlled by the ComfortLink™ control system and it is
available to operate whenever circuit A is running.
The hot gas bypass option consists of a pressure regulating
valve, a manual service valve and tubing connecting the circuit
A hot gas refrigerant line to the circuit A evaporator distributors (one distributor on sizes 030-035, two distributors on sizes
040-105). The pressure regulating valve opens the bypass
circuit as the evaporator suction pressure decreases into a range
that might generate frost formation on the evaporator surface
if sustained compressor operation occurs. The hot gas refrigerant enters the evaporator coil and adds refrigeration load to the
compressor circuit to offset a low load situation in the mixed
air temperature condition. Total bypass capacity is approximately 5 tons.
The hot gas bypass system is a factory-installed option,
installed on circuit A only. When this option is provided, the
control function for Lead-Lag sequencing must be disabled

TROUBLESHOOTING
The scrolling marquee display shows the actual operating
conditions of the unit while it is running. If there are alarms or
there have been alarms, they will be displayed in either the current alarm list or the history alarm list. The Service Test mode
allows operation of the compressors, fans, and other components to be checked while the unit is not operating.
Complete Unit Stoppage — There are several condi-
tions that can cause the unit to not provide heating or cooling.
If an alarm is active which causes the unit to shut down,
diagnose the problem using the information provided in
the Alarms and Alerts section on page 94, but also check for
the following:
• Cooling and heating loads are satisfied.
• Programmed schedule.
• General power failure.
• Tripped control circuit transformers circuit breakers.
• Tripped compressor circuit breakers.
• Unit is turned off through the CCN network.
Single Circuit Stoppage — If a single circuit stops
incorrectly, there are several possible causes. The problem
should be investigated using information from the alarm and
alert list.
Service Analysis — Detailed service analysis can be
found in Tables 71-73 and Fig. 13.
Restart Procedure — Before attempting to restart the
machine, check the alarm list to determine the cause of the
shutdown. If a shutdown alarm for a particular circuit has
occurred, determine and correct the cause before allowing the
unit to run under its own control again. When there is problem,
the unit should be diagnosed in Service Test mode. The alarms
must be reset before the circuit can operate in either Normal
mode or Service Test mode.
Thermistor Troubleshooting — The EDT, OAT,
RAT, LAT, T55, T56, and T58 space temperature sensors use
10K thermistors. Resistances at various temperatures are listed
in Tables 74 and 75.
THERMISTOR/TEMPERATURE SENSOR CHECK — A
high quality digital volt-ohmmeter is required to perform this
check.
1. Connect the digital voltmeter across the appropriate thermistor terminals at the J8 terminal strip on the main base
board.
2. Using the voltage reading obtained, read the sensor temperature from Tables 74 and 75.
3. To check thermistor accuracy, measure temperature at
probe location with an accurate thermocouple-type
temperature-measuring instrument. Insulate thermocouple to avoid ambient temperatures from influencing
reading. Temperature measured by thermocouple and
temperature determined from thermistor voltage reading
should be within 5° F (3° C) if care was taken in applying
thermocouple and taking readings.
If a more accurate check is required, unit must be shut down
and thermistor removed and checked at a known temperature
(freezing point or boiling point of water) using either voltage
drop measured across thermistor at the J8 terminal, or by
85

ECONOMIZER RUN STATUS — The Economizer Run Status
display table provides information about the economizer and can
be used to troubleshoot economizer problems. See Table 79. The
current position, commanded position, and whether the economizer is active can be displayed. All the disabling conditions
for the economizer and outside air information is also displayed.
COOLING INFORMATION — The Cooling Information run
status display table provides information on the cooling operation of the unit. See Table 80.
Current Running Capacity (
C.CAP) — This variable repre-
sents the amount of capacity currently running as a percent.
Current Cool Stage (
CUR.S) — This variable represents the
cool stage currently running.
Requested Cool Stage (
REQ.S) — This variable represents
the requested cool stage. Cooling relay timeguards in place
may prevent the requested cool stage from matching the
current cool stage.
Maximum Cool Stages (
MAX.S) — This variable is the maximum number of cooling stages the control is configured for
and capable of controlling.
Active Demand Limit (
DEM.L) — If demand limit is active,
this variable will represent the amount of capacity that the
control is currently limited to.
Capacity Load Factor (
SMZ) — This factor builds up or
down over time (–100 to +100) and is used as the means of adding or subtracting a cooling stage during run time. It is a normalized representation of the relationship between “Sum” and
“Z”. See the SUMZ Cooling Algorithm section on page 50.
Next Stage EDT Decrease (
ADD.R) — This variable represents (if adding a stage of cooling) how much the temperature
should drop in degrees depending on the R.PCT calculation
and how much additional capacity is to be added.
ADD.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP – capacity after adding a cool-
ing stage)
For example: If R.PCT = 0.2 and the control would be adding 20% cooling capacity by taking the next step up, 0.2 times
20 = 4 F ADD.R
Next Stage EDT Increase (
SUB.R) — This variable represents (if subtracting a stage of cooling) how much the temperature should rise in degrees depending on the R.PCT calculation
and how much capacity is to be subtracted.
SUB.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP – capacity after subtracting a
cooling stage)
For Example: If R.PCT = 0.2 and the control would be
subtracting 30% capacity by taking the next step down,
0.2 times –30 = –6 F SUB.R.
Rise Per Percent Capacity (
R.PCT) — This is a real time calculation that represents the amount of degrees of drop/rise
across the evaporator coil versus percent of current running
capacity.
R.PCT = (MAT – EDT)/C.CAP
Cap Deadband Subtracting (
Y.MIN) — This is a control variable used for Low Temp Override (L.TMP) and Slow Change
Override (SLOW).
Y.MIN = –SUB.R*0.4375
Cap Deadband Adding (
Y.PLU) — This is a control variable
used for High Temp Override (H.TMP) and Slow Change
Override (SLOW).
Y.PLU = –ADD.R*0.4375
Cap Threshold Subtracting (
Z.MIN) — This parameter is
used in the calculation of SMZ and is calculated as follows:
Z.MIN = Configuration
→
COOL→Z.GN * (–10 + (4*
(–SUB.R))) * 0.6
Cap Threshold Adding (
Z.PLU) — This parameter is used in
the calculation of SMZ and is calculated as follows:
Z.PLU = Configuration
→
COOL→Z.GN * (10 + (4*
(–ADD.R))) * 0.6
High Temp Cap Override (
H.TMP) — If stages of mechani-
cal cooling are on and the error is greater than twice Y. PL U,
and the rate of change of error is greater than 0.5° F, t h e n a
stage of mechanical cooling will be added every 30 seconds.
This override is intended to react to situations where the load
rapidly increases.
Low Temp Cap Override (
L.TMP) — If the error is less than
twice Y.MIN , and the rate of change of error is less than
–0.5° F, then a mechanical stage will be removed every 30 seconds. This override is intended to quickly react to situations
where the load is rapidly reduced.
Pull Down Cap Override (
PULL) — If the error from set
point is above 4° F, and the rate of change is less than –1° F per
minute, then pulldown is in effect, and “SUM” is set to 0. This
keeps mechanical cooling stages from being added when the
error is very large, but there is no load in the space. Pulldown
for units is expected to rarely occur, but is included for the rare
situation when it is needed. Most likely pulldown will occur
when mechanical cooling first becomes available shortly after
the control goes into an occupied mode (after a warm unoccupied mode).
Slow Change Cap Override (
SLOW) — With a rooftop unit,
the design rise at 100% total unit capacity is generally around
30° F. For a unit with 4 stages, each stage represents about
7.5° F of change to EDT. If stages could reliably be cycled at
very fast rates, the set point could be maintained very precisely.
Since it is not desirable to cycle compressors more than 6 cycles per hour, slow change override takes care of keeping the
PID under control when “relatively” close to set point.
MODE TRIP HELPER — The Mode Trip Helper table provides information on the unit modes and when the modes start
and stop. See Table 81. This information can be used to help
determine why the unit is in the current mode.

Alarms and Alerts — There are a variety of different
alerts and alarms in the system.
T — Alert: Part of the unit is down, but the unit is still par-
tially able to provide cooling or heating.
A — Alarm: The unit is down and is unable to provide cool-
ing or heating.
All alarms are displayed with a code of AXXX or TXXX
where XXX is the alarm/alert number. All alerts start with “T”
and all alarms start with “A”. The response of the control system to various alerts and alarms depends on the seriousness of
the particular alert or alarm. In the mildest case, an alert does
not affect the operation of the unit in any manner.
In addition, the compressors have several diagnostics
monitoring the safety of the system which may cause a
number of attempts to be re-tried before locking out the system
from operation. This feature reduces the likelihood of false
alarms causing a properly working system to be shutdown incorrectly.
For the compressor and circuit diagnostics, some of these
alerts/alarms will not broadcast an initial failure to the CCN
network until all attempts to recover have occurred and failed.
These alerts will be accessible in the alarm history of the
control (Alarms
→
HIST).
All the alarms and alerts are summarized in Table 86.

NOTE: These alerts only occur on units with a current sensor
board (CSB) (48/50Z105 only).
If the current sensor board reads OFF while the compressor
relay has been commanded ON for a period of 4 continuous
seconds, an alert is generated.
Any time this alert occurs, a strike will be called out on the
affected compressor. If three successive strikes occur the compressor will be locked out requiring a manual reset or power reset of the circuit board. The clearing of strikes during compressor operation is a combination of 3 complete cycles or 15 continuous minutes of run time operation. So, if there are one or
two strikes on the compressor and three short cycles (ONOFF,ON-OFF, ON-OFF) occur in less than 15 minutes, the
strikes will be reset to zero for the affected compressor. Also, if
the compressor turns on and runs for 15 minutes straight with
no compressor failure, the compressor's strikes are cleared as
well.
NOTE: Until the compressor is locked out, for the first two
strikes, the alert will not be broadcast to the network, nor will
the alarm relay be closed.
The possible causes are:
• High-pressure switch (HPS) open. The high-pressure switch
is wired in series with the compressor relays off of the
MBB. If the high-pressure switch opens while the MBB is
commanding the compressor on, the compressor stops and
the CSB no longer detects current, causing the control to
activate the alert.
• Circuit breaker trip.
• Wiring error.
To check out alerts T051, T052, T055, T056:
1. Turn on the compressor in question using Service Test
mode. If the compressor does not start, then most likely
the problem is one of the following: HPS open, circuit
breaker trip, incorrect safety wiring, or incorrect compressor wiring.
2. If the compressor starts, verify that the indoor and
outdoor fans are operating properly.
3. If the CSB is always detecting current, then verify that the
compressor is on. If the compressor is on, check the
contactor and the relay on the MBB. If the compressor is
off and there is no current, verify CSB wiring and replace
if necessary.
4. Return to Normal mode and observe compressor operation to verify that compressor current sensor is working
and condenser fans are energized after compressor starts.
A051 (Circuit A, Compressor 1 Stuck On Failure)
A052 (Circuit A, Compressor 2 Stuck On Failure)
A055 (Circuit B, Compressor 1 Stuck On Failure)
A056 (Circuit B, Compressor 2 Stuck On Failure)
NOTE: These alarms only occur on units with a current sensor
board (CSB) (48/50Z105 only).
If the current sensor board reads ON while the compressor
relay has been commanded OFF for a period of 4 continuous
seconds, an alarm is generated. These alarms are only monitored for a period of 10 seconds after the compressor relay has
been commanded OFF. This is done to facilitate a service technician forcing a relay to test a compressor.
In addition, if a compressor stuck failure occurs and the current sensor board reports the compressor and the request off,
certain diagnostics will take place.
1. As A1 and B1 both have 1 unloader, the control will energize the particular unloader for these compressors if the
failure occurs.
2. If any of the 4 compressors are diagnosed as stuck on and
the current sensor board is on and the request is off, the
control will request the supply fan which will automatically start building air flow control.
3. Heating will be disabled while any one of the compressors has this problem.
The reset method will be manual for these alarms.
The possible causes are:
• Welded contact on compressor relay or contactor.
• Frozen compressor relay on MBB.
To check out alerts A051, A052, A055, A056:
1. Place the unit in Service Test mode. All compressors
should be Off.
2. Verify that there is not 24v at the contactor coil. If there is
24v at the contactor, check relay on MBB and wiring.
3. Check for welded contactor.
4. Verify CSB wiring.
5. Return to Normal mode and observe compressor operation to verify that compressor current sensor is working
and condenser fans are energized after compressor starts.
T057 (Circuit A, High Pressure Switch Failure)
T058 (Circuit B, High Pressure Switch Failure) — These
alerts occur on all units except the 48/50Z105 units (current
sensor board units).
If the high-pressure switch trips on a circuit with compressors commanded on, the discharge pressure is sampled. If the
discharge pressure is between 368 and 418 psig, then the
discharge pressure trip point (Configuration
→
Cool→HPS.A,
HPS.B) is adjusted to the previously sampled trip point minus
3 psig. This is done to make a rough calibration of the high
pressure trip point which is used by the high discharge pressure
diagnostics.
When the trip happens, all mechanical cooling on the circuit
is shut down for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the circuit will
be allowed to come back on. An internal flag is set which needs
to sense the lead compressor on a circuit go from on to off, indicating the circuit came back on after the 15-minute delay and
successfully completed a cooling cycle. If the high-pressure
switch trips again, the high pressure alarm occurs which will
then require a manual reset of the unit.
T072 (Evaporator Discharge Reset Sensor Failure)
— This
sensor is responsible for third party reset of the cooling supply
air set point. If the unit is configured for “third party reset”
(Configuration
→
EDT.R→RS.CF=3) and this alert occurs, no
reset will be applied to the cooling supply air set point. Recovery from this alert is automatic. Reason for error is either a

T094 (Circ A Discharge Press exceeded 440 psig)
T095 (Circ B Discharge Press exceeded 440 psig) — Should
the discharge pressure read by a discharge pressure transducer
exceed 440 psig for any reason, the circuit will be stopped
which requires a manual reset for recovery. The unit highpressure switch should trip before the discharge pressure
reaches this value. Check for failed a high-pressure switch or a
discharge pressure transducer out of calibration.
T130 (Low Suction Pressure Circuit A)
T131 (Low Suction Pressure Circuit B) — If a circuit is
equipped with unloaders and the suction pressure drops below
48 psig for 15 seconds, then that circuit is staged down until either the pressure remains above 48 psig or the compressor is
staged off naturally, due to lessening demand. Each subsequent
circuit stage will then be turned off every 15 seconds.
There will be a start-up delay if the outside-air temperature
is too low. When the outdoor ambient is below 60 F, during
initial start-up, suction pressure is ignored for a period of
5 minutes.
The alarm and recovery of the low pressure condition will
follow the basic three strike methodology.
If a low suction pressure condition is detected while the circuit is ON and action has been taken to lower capacity, a
“strike” is called out (only if the circuit is staged off in this condition). If less than three strikes have occurred, the alarm will
show up in alarm history and locally at the display, but will not
be broadcast (just as in the high discharge pressure condition).
To recover (if the alarm is not manual), both a 10-minute
timer must expire and the suction pressure must recover above
54 psig. If recovery occurs, staging will be allowed on the circuit once again. A strike is tied to the circuit going off entirely,
not reducing capacity and recovering. Therefore it is possible
that multiple alerts may be stored but not broadcast in this condition. If all compressors in the circuit go down twice due to
low suction pressure, the next low suction pressure condition is
a manual alarm and the circuit is locked out and the alarm
broadcast to the network.
If the circuit operates with capacity for 15 continuous minutes and the low discharge pressure alarm condition is not manual, all strikes will be cleared.
T132 (High Suction Pressure Circuit A)
T133 (High Suction Pressure Circuit B) — During operation, the suction pressure cannot exceed 100 psig (60 F saturated). If after 5 minutes of operation, suction pressure exceeds
this value, then all compressors in that circuit are stopped and
the alarm is tripped. Reset method is automatic after time
guards have expired. The three strike rule applies which means
the third time is a manual reset and CCN broadcast for the
alert/alarm.
T134 (High Discharge Pressure Circuit A)
T135 (High Discharge Pressure Circuit B) — There is a configuration for each circuit which monitors high discharge pressure (Configuration
tion is adjusted to compensate for calibration whenever a high
pressure switch fault occurs. If discharge pressure rises above
this trip point, the individual circuit starts staging down 1 stage
every 5 seconds. To recover, both a 10-minute timer must expire
and the discharge pressure must fall 25 psig below the trip point.
If the circuit recovers, the circuit will stage back up (if the alarm
is not manual), allowing one stage every 5 seconds. The timer
starts 10 minutes since the last circuit stage was decreased. The
alarming and recovery of the high discharge pressure condition
will follow the basic three strike methodology. A strike is tied to
the circuit going off entirely, not reducing capacity and recovering. Therefore it is possible, multiple alerts may be stored but
not broadcast in this condition.
If the circuit operates with capacity for 15 continuous minutes and the high discharge pressure alarm condition is not
manual, all strikes will be cleared.

T136 (Compressor A1 Low Differential Pressure)
T137 (Compressor A2 Low Differential Pressure)
T138 (Compressor B1 Low Differential Pressure)
T139 (Compressor B2 Low Differential Pressure) — If the
pressure differential between the discharge and suction pressure transducers is less than 50 psig for more than 15 minutes
when the circuit is running, an alert will be issued and the circuit shut down. Any compressor that is currently on at the time
of the alert will have its own individual alarm sent. Reset is
manual.
T140 (Circ A Max Diff Operating Press Exceeded)
T141 (Circ B Max Diff Operating Press Exceeded) — Depending on the compressor loading, after 5 minutes of operation if the discharge versus suction pressure ratios exceed
the curves in Fig. 14, then all compressors in that circuit are
stopped and the alert tripped. Reset is manual.
A150 (Unit is in Emergency Stop)
“EMSTOP” in the System table is set to emergency stop, the
unit will shut down immediately and broadcast an alarm back
to the CCN indicating that the unit is down. This alarm will
clear when the variable is set back to “enable”.
A152 (Unit Down Due to Failure)
whenever both cooling circuits are unavailable to cool. Mechanical cooling is impossible due to a failure in the system explained through other current alarms.
Possible problems are:
• plenum pressure switch trips on a return fan tracking unit
• the supply fan status alarms have been instructed to shut
down the unit
• both circuits incapable of cooling due to multiple alerts of
compressors and/or pressure alerts
• a hardware failure of the main board's analog to digital converter or EEPROM chip
• a critical storage failure in EEPROM has rendered the unit
inoperable
• the unit is configured for inlet guide vanes and the actuator
controlling the vanes is in fault.
Reset is automatic.
