It is in seconds and sets the delay when powered ON (not when the unit status changes to ON) before activating any outputs. Its purpose is to distribute the drawn current and protect the elements and particularly the compressor against repeated starts in the event of frequent power failures. When the timer has elapsed, the controller starts to manage the outputs based on the other times and the other normal functions.
0=C means that the user interface will show values in Celsius and bar 1=F means that the user interface will show values in Fahrenheit and PSI
1=Yes means that the user interface is locked

2 circuits per internal coil ->0<H1<3
3 circuits per internal coil H1=1
4 circuits per internal coil H1=1
• WATER evaporators (H3=H2O). For each evaporator, the H1,...,H4 digital outputs which are necessary to manage the antifreeze heaters on the basis of the leaving water temperature TO1,...,TO4 are controlled. The number of heaters per evaporator is defined by H5.
• AIR evaporators (H3=Air). Only the “TO1_Tout Evaporator 1” input is used to measure the supply air temperature even when more than one evaporator is present. The ice alarm AE1 is replaced with the Low air temperature warning A07 which is set to the same parameters as the ice alarm.
Defines the pumps (or fan) per evaporator:
• WATER evaporators (H3=H2O): The PE1 and PE2 digital outputs are managed to control one pump or two twin pumps.
• AIR evaporators (H3=Air): “PE1 and PE2” outputs are used to manage fans on the evaporator. Note: check "Fun for internal coil"
Defines the number of heaters for each internal coil; Configuration accepted:
1 heater per internal coil -> 0<H1<5
2 heaters per internal coil ->0<H1<3
3 heaters per internal coil ->H1=1
4 heaters per internal coil ->H1=1
0=NO means that each fan (AO ECx) works in relation to the evaporator pressure 1=Yes means that only the fan EC1 will work in relation to worst pressure in the evaporators
Note: the fan speed is managed with PI logic (check parameters ECS,….,Hi)

Digital input: OFC, FCL1, …, FCL4, OFC1, …, OFC12 Digital output: FC1, …, FC12 Analogue output: Fc1, …, Fc4 Alarm: AF1, …, AF12
H9 – Air or water cooler
condenser
H10 – Number of pump/fans per condenser
H11 –Fan in common to all condenser
Defines whether the fans or the pump regulate condensing.
0=AIR : Controls defrosting in heating mode. 1=HO : The configuration managed is H10=1 and H11=Yes
Note: the pump or fan behaviour is defined by parameters F01, F02 and F03
Defines the necessary digital output to control the pumps or fans on the condenser.
• Water-cooled units (H9=H2O).The single “Cond Fan1/Pump1” digital output is controlled to drive a pump.
• Air-cooled units (H9=AIR). Contributes to defining the total number of managed ventilation steps and thus of the corresponding ”Condenser Fan1”, ..., ”Condenser Fan8” digital outputs used to drive them.
On multi-circuits units, fans can be in common to all condensers. If fans are not in common to all condensers (H11=0=NO), the following output are controlled:
• as many analogue inputs as the condensers (H1*H2)
• as many digital outputs as the condensers (H1*H2), multiplied by the number of fans per condenser (H10); digital outputs for fans are assigned to condensers in a sequential and balanced way, assuming that all condensers have the same number of fans; e.g. in a system made of 2 condensers and 6 fans, “Cond Fan1/Pump1”, “Condenser Fan2” and “Condenser Fan3” outputs are assigned to control fans belonging to the first condenser; “Condenser Fan4”, “Condenser Fan5” and “Condenser Fan6” to the second condenser.
• as many analogue output s “InverterFanCond1”,...,”InverterFanCond4” for condensing control as for the condensers (H1*H2).
If fans are common to all condensers (H11=1=YES) the following outputs are used:
• as before, as many analogue inputs for condensing controls as there are circuits per condenser (H1*H2), but the one requiring the higher response from the control is used for regulation. Each analogue input is then used for defrost control in heating mode;
• as many digital outputs as fans per condenser (H10);
• one analogue output “InverterFanCond1” for fan speed regulation.

Heat Pump

Parameter: H40, H41, H42

How to configure the heat pump mode
Functionalities: Enable Heat Pump Control Digital output: HC1, …, HC4, BO1, …, BO4 Analogue input: SP1, …, SP4, dP1, …, dP4
H40 –Heat pump type 0=No means that the software does not perform heating mode
1=GAS means that the software performs the heating mode, the internal coil is the evaporator in
cooling mode and the condenser in heating mode 1=H2O means that the software performs the heating mode, the coils keep the same meaning in both heating and cooling mode both
Note: one digital output “Reverse Valve C1”, ..., “Reverse Valve C4” per each circuit is reserved for controlling the reverse flow valve
H41- Boiler number of heaters Boiler heaters “Boiler1”, ..., “Boiler4” are turned ON when the temperature measured by the regulation
probe enters in the area defined by the active regulation setpoint in heating (SH1) and differential rH1.
They are an alternative to the heat pump, not in addition.
Boiler heaters can be activated only if the temperature measured by the “BoilerSafety” probe is under a specific safety limit AbS. If it is over the limit, alarm A14 is generated. To reset the alarm there is a constant differential Abd to be considered.
H42- Probe change in HP 0=No means that the probe is before the 4-way valve (close to the compressor):
• the sensor SPx – Suction pressure Cx measures low pressure
• the sensor dPx – Discharge pressure Cx measures high pressure
1=Yes means that the probe is after the 4-way valve (close to the coils):
• the sensor SPx – Suction pressure Cx measures low pressure in cooling mode and high pressure in heating mode
• the sensor dPx – Discharge pressure Cx measures high pressure in cooling mode and low pressure in heating mode
Note: if ex2=yes the variable used from H42 (pink line below) is always about low pressure, in this case pay attention to set H42=No because in heating mode the discharge pressure will not be available

Network settings

Parameter: n01,…n17

The Master and Slave is a functionality that allow a group of machines to be managed like one machine (Master) decides which and how many units (Slaves) should run. The max number of units is 8 (7 slaves + 1 master), the network is CANBUS. The Master and Slave function optimizes:
- ageing of machines
- distribution of the load in order to improve the performance of the plant
- The backup units
Functionalities: Enable Master/Slave Alarms: N01, N02, N03, N04, N05,N06, N07, N08
n01 –MCX network disable 0=NO means that the Master slave function is enabled
1=Yes means that the Master slave function is disabled
n02 –Number of slave nodes It has to be set equal to (“number of chillers in the network” -1)
n03- Auto master select 0=NO means that the master in the master slave network can be only the chiller with the CANBUS ID
equal to n15: if the master is not more available in the network, the other chillers will start to work in standalone mode
1=Yes means that the master in the master slave network is the chiller with lowest CANBUS ID
n04- Distribution algo 0= PWR The master, using its own sensors, decides how many chillers are working and the chillers’
power supply; The maximum number of units that can work is related to the gap between setpoint and temperature: practically the regulation band is divided for the number of machines (n02+1-n09):
1= CAP the master manages only the start order (following the ageing of the machines), chillers manage their power as standalone machines. If all the units which are running have capacity above n12 %, the master will switch on another chiller (the youngest one). If all the units which are running have capacity below n13 %, the master will switch off the oldest chiller running The minimum time between two actions of the master is n14 seconds
n05- Power Smart power distribution enable
n06- Node rotation enable 0=No means that the start sequence of the machines is fixed; the order depends on the addressing,
20 | BC295150867120en-000201 © Danfoss | DCS (vt) | 2019.08
1=Yes means that the master is allowed to cut-in the first chiller available without considering the start order related to the ageing of the machines
the first to start is the machine with the smallest CANBUS ID, the first to stop is the chiller with the highest CANBUS ID 1=Yes means that the start/stop sequence of the machines depends on the ageing of the chillers, always starting with the youngest of the set and the oldest one is always the first to stop. In the case that one machine works n17 hours more than another chiller that is switched off, the master will exchange the unit in order to align the ageing.

n07- Backup node offset When the gap between setpoint and temperature is above (n07+regulation band), the first backup
unit is allowed to work as a support, also considering parameter n08 .
Note: the offset to enable the other backup units is (n07*m+ regulation band):
m = 2 for the second backup unit
m = 3 for the third backup unit
• …
Note: the backup units will work running normally after the set point. It will be switched off when the gap between setpoint and temperature is below the regulation band Note: the pump behaviour is defined through the parameter P01
n08- Time to enable n07 It’s the time to stay far away from the setpoint in order to cut in the backup unit
Note: check parameter n07
n09-Number of back-up unit n09 defines the number of backup units inside the master slave network
A backup unit is never enabled (so does not provide cooling capacity) unless one of the following situations occurs:
• one of the other units becomes unavailable
• Support (see parameter n07 and n08)
Note: The master chooses the backup unit (among all nodes present in the network) by looking at the working time of every unit: the one which has worked the longest will be the backup unit.
n10 – Evaporator in common 0=No each chiller consider its own evaporator flow alarm
1=yes the master will read its “FPE” digital input (Flow Evaporator) and will send the information to
other slaves
n11 – Pump alarm in common 0=No each chiller considers its own pump alarm
1=yes the master will read its “AP1” digital input (Evap pump/fan overload alarm) and will send the
information to other slaves
n12 – Capacity upper threshold
n13 – Capacity lower threshold
n14 – Capacity step min time See parameter n04
See parameter n04
See parameter n04
n15 – Master node CAN ID It has to be set equal to the lowest ID in the CANBUS network
n16 – Slaves node CAN ID offset The slaves have to take the CAN ID in relation to the n15 just adding n16.
E.G. for n02 =3
• Master ID= n15
• Slave1 ID= n15+n16
• Slave2 ID= n15+n16+n16
• Slave3 ID= n15+n16+n16+n16

Configuration

Parameter: rEG, rET, rT1, rT2, o30, Er1

rEG – Analogue input for
temperature regulation
rET – Regulation Type Defines the relation between the temperature gap and the power request to the circuits.
0= Tin : reference sensor is Tin_Tin Evaporator 1= ToM: reference sensor is TOM_Tout Evap Mix 2 =AI1: reference sensor is the analogue input 1
……
17 =AI16 : reference sensor is the analogue input 16 18 =SPT1: reference is the temperature calculated from the sensor SP1_Suction Press C1, the gas type is set using parameter o31
0=P : Power request to the circuits increases in proportional way with the regulation error, i.e., it is 100% when the regulation error (the gap between setpoint and the reference sensor ) is equal to rC1 ( rH1)
1=PI: the power request is the sum of P regulation (rET=0) plus a component (Integral part)
that increases in relation to the regulation error; the speed of the integral part depends on the parameter rin_Ti. For PI regulation, the balance is reached only when the regulation sensor gets the setpoint.
2=dZ : The delay between compressors activations varies between a maximum value dd5 and minimum value dd6 proportional to the temperature position inside the regulation band defined by the activation differential dd1. Above setpoint + dead zone + activation differential, the delay among activations is equal to the minimum.
rT1- Minimum limit for TReg TX
rT2- Maximum limit for TReg TX
Similarly the action for the delay among compressors deactivations, which can vary between a maximum value dd7 and a minimum value dd8, is proportional to the temperature position inside the regulation band defined by the deactivation differential dd2. Below a setpoint differential, the delay among activations is equal to the minimum value, dd8, up to a limit threshold, dd3. Below that, all the compressors are immediately switched OFF to avoid the unit ice alarm.
The analogue output rtr linearly replays the regulation probe (check parameter rET) It gets to 0% when the regulation probe reaches a value of rT1 Note: if the regulation probe is in error the AO_rtr gets to 100%
The analogue output rtr linearly replays the regulation probe (check parameter rET) It gets to 100% when the regulation probe reachs rT2 value Note: if regulation probe is in error the the AO_rtr gets to 100%

Flow alarm

Parameter: AFr, AF1, AF2, AF3

It is generated by the “Flow Evaporator” digital input. In the event of an alarm:
• if there is the second pump “Evap Pump2”, the second pump operating warning A08 will be activated before the flow switch alarm A03;
• otherwise, all the compressors and all the other elements will be immediately switched OFF, ignoring their protection times. The alarm is delayed by AF1 seconds after the pump starts to wait for the water flow to reach its steady value.
It is also delayed in normal functioning by AF2 seconds to filter out temporary flow changes or air bubbles in the water circuit.
AFr-Reset Type Used in the alarm tab to set the reset type from the UI
The reset type is configurable through AFr to:
• manual: all the outputs are OFF, including the pump. After reset, if the alarm is still active, the alarm is ignored (but still shown on display) until the delay time from startup is elapsed to give the unit the chance to start normally.
• automatic: all the outputs are OFF, excluding the pump which tries to start every AF3 seconds; the alarm is ignored until the delay time from startup is elapsed.
• semi-automatic: the pump tries to start every AF3 seconds for AFr number of times, ignoring the alarm during its delay at startup; exceeded the attempts of starting the pump, the alarm can only be reset manually.
Digital input: FPE Alarms: A03, A08
AF1-Delay from pump starting Used in the alarm tab to set the Startup delay from the UI
Note: Period starts when the pump starts and not from the power being turned on
AF2-Delay in steady operation Used in the alarm tab to set the Steady delay from the UI
AF3-Time to restart Defines the time to wait before restart the pump;
It works resetting both the automatic and semiautomatic alarms

SHO-Superheat output type 0=SM: Superheat control is performed over MCX Stepper Motor
0=MCX means that evaporator pressure is read from an MCX analogue input 1= EEV means that evaporator pressure is read through CANBUS, from the analogue input of the EXD Note: check parameter H42
ex3=2 means that there are 2 valves per circuit
Note: in case of ex3=2 and ex2=1 the suction pressure is read from the first driver Note: ex3=2 works only with EXD drivers, in case of 2 circuits the first 2 drivers are in the circuit 1
This setting damps the normal amplification Kp, but only just around the reference value. A setting of
0.5 will reduce the KP value by half. The value should only be changed by specially trained staff.
This setting determines the valve’s opening degree as a function of the change in evaporating pressure. An increase of the evaporating pressure will result in a reduced degree of opening. When there is a drop in the low-pressure thermostat during startup, the value must be raised a bit. If there is pendling during startup, the value must be reduced a little. The value should only be changed by specially trained staff.
The value must be smaller than “N10”
Measured in bar G
The valve’s opening degree can be limited. The value is set in %
A higher value will allow the control function a greater fluctuation of superheat before the reference is changed. The value should only be changed by specially trained staff.
The control function uses the value as start value for the valve’s opening degree at each thermostat cut-in. The controller continuously calculates new values by adaptive control. The value should only be changed by specially trained staff.
If the controller does not obtain a reliable signal within this period of time, the controller will try to establish a stable signal in other ways. (Too high a value may result in a flooded evaporator). The value should only be changed by specially trained staff.
N21=0: the superheat reserence is N10 N21=1: Lowest permissible superheat (MSS). Adaptive regulation. N21=2: Load-defined superheat. The reference is established based on the line formed by the three points: N09, N10 and N22.
1=AO: Superheat control is performed over MCX Analogue Output 2=Inr: inner loop regulation and S4 temperature less T0 (double loop)
Note: the parameters N19,...,SHO work only for MCXxxV.

How to log data on an SD card

Parameter: ENL

Only available for SD-card-compatible MCXs (MCX152V and MCX061V). 1- It is possible to start/stop data logging through the parameter ENL_Enable SD Card Log. If you want to restart the data logger from
zero, it is enough to delete the file from the SD card memory. 2- By editing the file SDCardLogDefines.c (in the BIN folder), it is possible to define the variables which will be stored in the SD card 3- The variables available are reported in the first part of the SDCardLogDefines.c file, consisting mainly of all the input/output functions
and a few status variables. If you are going to use variables not traced in the file, contact MCX Support 4- In the second part of the .c file, the following can be edited:
a. The number of records: when the records reach this number, the oldest record will be overwritten by the most recent (circular file)
b. Sample time: the time between two records
c. The variables to log: the maximum number of variables is 32, and the variable’s name must be the same as the first part of the .c file
5- To read the files on the SD card using a decode program, download the “DecodeLog” folder available on the MCX site and save it to the

C disk
6- Extract the memory card from the MCX and copy and paste the files to the SD card in the “DecodeLog/Disk1” folder
7- From the “DecodeLog” folder, run the batch file “decodeSDCardLog”; it will generate the .csv files with encoded data.
8- Events are recorded in the events.csv file. There are six columns:
© Danfoss | DCS (vt) | 2019.08 BC295150867120en-000201 | 75
User Guide | Chiller and reversable chiller, reciprocating, scroll and screw compressors
a. Event time: the time of the event (start event, stop event, parameters change and RTC change) b. EventNodeID: the ID of the MCX c. EventType: a numerical description of the event type
i. -2: Reset of MCX history alarm ii. -3: RTC set iii. -4: Start alarm iv. -5: Stop alarm v. 1000: Parameters change (note: the change can be detected only when it is made through a user interface and not via serial communication)
d. Var1: a numerical description of the variable. To decrypt it, open the “AGFDefine.c” file in the “App” folder of the MCXDesign software.
In this file there are two sections with an ID indication: one is for the parameters and the other is for the alarm. If the event type is 1000, refer to the index parameters list; if the event type is -4 or -5, refer to the index alarms list. These lists contain the variable names corresponding to each ID (not to the variable description – for the variable description, refer to MCXShape).
e. Var2: used to record the parameter value before and after the change. This number is a double integer; in the high part there is the
new parameter value and in the low part there is the old value.
f. Var3: not used.
Functionalities: Enable SD Card Log
ENL- Enable SD card log 0=NO means that the log is stopped
1=YES means that the log is started
Note: If you want to restart the data logger from zero, it is enough delating the file into the SD card memory

Status variables
The following variable are available through Modbus, they are the states of the software. The variables which can work as command are set as R/W variable

Software status

Parameter: A01, …, A19, C01, …, C04, E01, …, E08

A01- Main command
(R/W)
A02-Alarm notification (R)
A03-Pump (R)
A04-Fun (R)
A05-Heaters (R)
A06-Remote ON-OFF (R) 0= OFF: the digital input ONO_ON/OFF is in OFF
A07-Defrost status (R) 0= OFF
A08-Request power
(R)
A09-Actual power (R)
A10-Hours Counter Saving (R/W)
A11-Actual control probe (R) This is the probe used for the regulation of the compressors
A12-Actual setpoint (R) This is the real setpoint used for the regulation of the compressors
A13-Status System(R) 0= Off chiller
A14-Cooling-Heating(R) 0= Cool
C01-C04
Compressor x Pow(R)
E01-E08
Compressor x (R)
0: no meaning, the software reads and sets to zero this variable each loop 1: writing 1, the buzzer stops 2: writing 2, the alarms are reset 3: writing 3, the default parameters are restored 4: writing 4, the parameter y01-System On Off is changed 7: writing 7, the alarm history are reset 8: writing 8, heat/cool mode is changed
0: means that there are not alarms 1: means that there are alarm or warning active 2: means that buzzer is working
0= Off 1= ON
0= Off 1= ON: at least one fan is switched on
0= Off 1= ON: at least one heater is switched on
1= ON: the digital input ONO_ON/OFF is in ON
1= ON: the defrost is performed
It's in % It’s the power request for the compressors
It's in % It’s the power available in the moment; it depends on alarms, temporization, etc.
Writing 1 all the counters are stored in persistent memory Note: the hour counters are usually stored every 20 minutes
Note: the setpoint also considers compensations
1= On chiller
1= Heat
It's in % The screw compressor power is
0= Compressor is switched OFF 1= Compressor is waiting to switch ON 3= Compressor is waiting to switch OFF 4= Compressor is switched ON
