Regulation Algorithms
The DIN-TSTAT-FCU is a universal fan-coil controller designed for two-pipe HVAC systems.
The device controls the fan used for forcing air flow over the water coil and controls the
valve used to adjust the water flow rate through the coil. The fan speed of the fan-coil unit is
regulated with three speeds: low, medium, and high. The valve is regulated differently
depending on the fan-coil type used. The fan speed and valve position are set by the
regulation algorithm using the difference in the room temperature and the set point
temperature. The device supports cooling and heating modes, except when configured as
Type 6 where only cooling is supported.
On power up, the device has an initialization period where the system is stabilized before
temperature regulation can take place.
The DIN-TSTAT-FCU’s normal operation can be interrupted if it receives an alarm signal or if
the water temperature is inappropriate.
The device has various configurable parameters for adjusting the working state
corresponding to user application.
FCU Wiring and Control
For regulating different 2-pipe, 3-speed valve and fan-coil types the DIN-TSTAT-FCU has six
different software configuration types each for controlling different type of fan-coil unit. The
DIN-TSTAT-FCU configuration types are:
• Type 1 - Modulated 0-10 Vac Valve
• Type 2 - Modulated OP-CL 24 Vac Valve
• Type 3 - Spring-loaded 24 Vac Valve
• Type 4 - Modulated OP-CL 230 Vac Valve
• Type 5 - Spring-loaded 230 Vac Valve
• Type 6 - 1-2 Stage Direct-expansion System
Initialization
NOTE: Every configuration type has the same initialization procedure.
The device enters initialization period when it is turned on. During the initialization period the
fan is forced to off (fan outputs are inactive), and the valve output is forced to fully open in
order to run water through the heat exchanger and stabilize its temperature. The duration of
the initialization period depends on the type of device configuration, and it is 120% of the
Valve opening time parameter. In case of DX systems, the fan is also put to off state, and
stage relays are inactive for initialization time, which is calculated as 120% of the longer time
written in parameters Stage 1/2 minimum ON time. The means for valve control depends on
device configuration type.
Water temperature
A second NTC probe input can be wired to the TEMP SENSE – TS2 and G port for water
temperature measurement. The minimum temperature difference between ambient
temperature and water temperature for FCU to effectively perform its function is Minimal T diff for cooling parameter in case of cooling and Minimal T diff for heating in case of heating.
When cooling is performed, the device checks that the water temperature is cooler than the
ambient temperature. When heating the device checks that the water temperature is hotter
than the ambient temperature. If water temperature is not adequate, the fan speed is set to
OFF and valve is fully open.
The water temperature measurement is enabled when the Temperature probe 2 enable
parameter is set.
While operating, the device checks every 5 minutes for changes in operating parameters.
Operating parameters are the following:
• Temperature set point
• Selected fan speed
• Selected operating mode (off, cooling, heating)
If a change is detected, new parameters are stored in flash memory. On power up, these
parameters are read from flash memory and used as operating parameters.
Modulated 0-10 Vac Valve
This device is designed for use with 2-pipe, 3-speed FCU with a 0-10 Vac modulated valve.
In this case, the valve performs regulation in the ∆T vicinity of set point. The valve opens and
closes according to the graph below. The valve is controlled using 0-10 Vac analog output.

This device is designed for use with a 3-speed, direct-expansion system with compressor
control - cooling only.
In this case, a compressor is controlled instead of a valve. The compressor state for stage
one and stage two is determined by the room temperature. The compressor is controlled
using two relays (Stg 1 – stage 1, Stg 2 – stage 2).
The diagram of working compressor according to room temperature is shown in the graph

The device has four digital inputs reserved for external alarm signals. Their usage is optional
and adjustable by device configuration parameters. Each of the four alarm inputs has three
adjustable parameters available:
• Alarm X enable – Determines if the alarm input is used
• Alarm X polarity – Alarm is active if the incoming input signal corresponds to the set
polarity
•Alarm 1 delay – Time interval from the alarm input signal activation to the activation
of the alarm state
Alarm inputs are used for accepting signals from window/door sensors, condensation
canister sensor, PIR sensors, etc.
If enabled and activated, the alarm blocks the device outputs for fan speed (fan speed will
be set to 0) and closes the valve by forcing valve outputs (different outputs depending on
device configuration type). If the delay time is set, alarm activation or deactivation is
postponed by alarm delay time.
The wiring diagram below shows an example where three alarm inputs are used.
Alarms Wiring Example
Temperature Probes
DIN-TSTAT-FCU device has two resistance measuring inputs for NTC probes. First input is
used for room temperature measurement. The second input can be used for water
temperature monitoring.
The DIN-TSTAT-FCU primarily communicates using the NET port. The NET port has four
pins marked as 24, Y, Z, G, where 24 is 24 V input, Y and Z are + and – signal lines, and G
is ground.
Through the Cresnet network, a user can do the following:
•Change the temperature set point either by sending a new value or by sending raise
and lower commands
TYPE PARAMETER VALUE
• Set the desired fan speed mode (low, medium, high, or auto)
• Set the operating mode (cooling, heating, or off)
• Monitor the current temperature set point
• Monitor the currently active operating mode
• Monitor the currently active fan speed
• Monitor the status of binary inputs
• Monitor the measured temperatures
Commands issued using the Cresnet port are also reported back through the Modbus port.
The last received command is considered valid. The Cresnet network and local room
display unit are both informed about the last change.
Port
The device can operate using only power supplied from the Cresnet network, but in that
case, I/O resources are not operational and a main power supply error is reported. When
operating from network power supply, the device consumes 0.5 W.
Communication
The device is reported as a DIN-TSTAT-FCU on the Cresnet network. The serial number is
the same as serial number on the device label.
While Cresnet communication is active, the NET LED is ON.
Light and Poll (LP) is a mechanism that allows a device to identify itself through physical
input from a user. This helps identify devices in their physical location, as well as reduce the
chance of communicating with the wrong device. LP works in the following manner:
1. A Start Light and Poll (SLP) command is sent from the control system to
DIN-TSTAT-FCU.
2. The device blinks its NET LED to indicate that it is in Light and Poll mode.
3. Press the NET button to acknowledge the SLP command. This ends the Light and
Poll procedure by sending an End Light and Poll (ELP) command.
An auxiliary RS-485 port supports the Modbus RTU protocol. The device is master on
Modbus network. This port is used for connecting to a local room display unit. The local
room display unit enables user to do the following:
• Set the temperature set point
• Set the desired fan speed mode (low, medium, high, or auto)
• Set the operating mode (cooling, heating, or off)
• Monitor the current temperature set point
• Monitor the currently active operating mode
• Monitor the currently active fan speed
• Monitor the measured room temperature
Commands from the auxiliary port can be received concurrently with commands from the
NET port. The last received command is considered valid. The control system and local
room display unit are both informed about the last change.
Communication parameters are settable through user registers.
Port
The auxiliary port has four pins marked EP, A, B, G, where EP is external power supply, A
and B are + and – communication signals lines, and G is ground.
The DIN-TSTAT-FUC can supply power to other devices on the Modbus network. Supply
voltage is 20 Vdc and the maximum output current is 100 mA.
Communication
The device is preprogrammed to read and write particular values to and from local room
display.
Modbus reads:
• Temperature set point
• Desired fan speed mode
• Desired operating mode
Modbus writes:
• Active temperature set point
• Active fan speed mode
• Active operating mode
• Current room temperature
• Minimum set point value
• Maximum set point value
Write Multiple Registers command is used for register write and Read Holding Registers
command is used for register read. The registers are written on value change while read is
performed on best effort.
While communication is active, the COM LED blinks. If communication is error-free COM
LED blinks fast, and each error will introduce a delay of 1s between the LED flashes.
Registers that read and write from the local room display are shown below.

An alarm is active. Using the DIN-TSTAT-FCU Configuration
Check the main power supply and the
valve wiring.
Check if the appropriate FCU type is
selected.
Tool in Monitoring mode, check:
• Temperature probe errors.
• The measured temperatures.
• The main power supply.
• The selected operating mode.
• The current alarm states.
• If Type 1 is selected, check the
analog voltage control output
value. Use the forcing option to
set the desired voltage on the
output regardless of current
regulation state.
•If Type 2 or 3 is selected, check
the OP-CL triac output
variables. Use the forcing
option to place outputs in the
desired state regardless of the
current regulation state.
•If Type 4, 5, or 6 is selected,
check Stage 1 or 2 relay output
variables. Use the forcing
option to place the outputs in
the desired state regardless of
the current regulation state.
