Delta DNS-14 Installation And Application Manual

INSTALLATION & APPLICATION GUIDE
Delta Network Sensor: BACstat I

Product Description

The DNS-14 BACstat I is an intelligent room sensor with four buttons and a 3-digit LCD display that is used with Delta’s product line of BACnet Application Controllers. It is capable of communicating on Delta’s proprietary LINKnet network or directly on a BACnet MS/TP network using the MS/TP BACnet protocol.
When connected to an Application Controller on a LINKnet network the DNS-14 provides programmable remote sensor capabilities to the controller. Up to 12 devices may be connected to the LINKnet network, depending on the controller, where associated BACnet objects located in the Application Controller make the DNS-14 accessible to the rest of the system. These same objects in the Application Controller are used in programming each DNS-14 for various functions and applications.

Document Edition 1.9
When connected on an MS/TP network the DNS-14 functions as an independent Native BACnet sensor device, similar to any other MS/TP device. Each DNS-14 is configured for operation (including the use of its buttons and display), and can receive commands for mode and setpoint changes from another device across the network (i.e., DCU or other System Controller with V3.22 firmware).

Mounting

The DNS-14 backplate is designed for mounting directly on a standard North American electrical box, but may be mounted in other ways as well.

Power

The DNS-14 BACstat requires a 24 VAC @ 2 VA power supply, typically an isolated Class II transformer. More than one device – not including DCUs or V2 products – may be connected to the same transformer, providing the transformer is properly sized, including line losses, and polarity is observed between controllers (in regards to 24~ and GND). The transformer must ONLY be used to provide power to other MS/TP or LINKnet devices. Auxiliary field devices (i.e., 4-20 mA devices) that don’t use ½ wave rectification must be powered separately.

Network & Cabling Requirements

To ensure network stability and reliable comm unication s, particul arly at h igh speeds on the R S-485 MS/TP or LINKnet networks, it is imperative that you adhere to the following network and cabling requirem ents:

Network Topology

1. BACstats Configured as MS/TP Subnet Devices
With V3.21 firmware or higher, on e possible MS/ TP netw ork arch itecture has the MS/TP devices conf igured as Subnet devices, allowing BACstats to reside on the MS/TP network with other Subnet devices. Note that V3.21 requires a DCU, wh ile V3.22 or hi gher m ay us e any System Controller instead.
2. BACstats Configured as LINKnet Devices
The BACstat may reside on LINKnet instead of MS/TP. However, this requires a controller that supports a LINKnet network for I/O ex pans ion. The m ax imum LINKn et dev ices wi th or wi thout I/ O depends on the controller.

: When connected to LINKnet the Display Code should be set to 1.0 (whereby the display and buttons are controlled through GCL in the host DAC device), while a setting of 4.0 is a typical choice when connected directly to an MS/TP network.
The LINKnet Communications Setting (On or Off), to match the connection method. When turned On the network communications is set to LINKnet, and when Off the communications is set to MS/TP.
The DNA Setting (On or Off), for inheriting a derived address from higher-up devices on an MS/TP network, or not.
The device Address (1 to 99), which is used internally as the MAC Address. As the BACstat can only be a Subnet device on MS/TP, this address is always mapped in as the Subnet value. On LINKnet, this address is the physical address for the device (limited to 1 to 12) and the other address settings are irrelevant. Note: On MS/TP the complete BACnet address is in the form of “OEM_Area_System_Subnet”
The System number (0 to 99), which can only be set manually when on MS/TP and DNA is turned off – and is inherited when DNA is on.
The Area number (0 to 99), which can only be set manually when on MS/TP and DNA is turned off – and is inherited when DNA is on.
The OEM number (0 to 3), which can only be set manually when on MS/TP and DNA is turned off – and is inherited when DNA is on.
The Network Speed (9,600 or 19,200 or 38,400 or 76,800 bps). The default for both LINKnet and MS/TP is 76,800 bps. While the baud rate for MS/TP devices may need to be adjusted to suite, the speed for LINKnet networks should remain at 76,800 bps.

OBJECTS

The following is a list of predefined or “fixed” objects that reside in the DNS-14, which you cannot create or delete. When connected to an MS/TP network, these objects are readily accessible over the network. When connected to a LINKnet network, many of these objects are mapped into matching AI or AV objects residing in the Application Controller above.

GCL Programming
BACstats are not programmable devices – GCL does not reside in a BACstat. Rather, when connected to an MS/TP network you configure a BACstat for local operation and write GCL located elsewhere as necessary to do additional functions. In this way you configure the BACstat for local operation (both displ ay & button handling and local control) and then write any necessary GCL in another controller for additional strategies.
For example: Through the Configuration Menu, you typically configure the DN S-14 display and buttons to functional locally, so GCL programs are not necessary for handling the display value or adjusting setpoint (i.e., AV15 = 4.0). Then, using GCL programming located in another controller (i.e., DCU or other System Device) you make mode and setpoint changes based on Time-of-Day or other conditions.

V3.21 F
IRMWARE
: All GCL programming for mode changes, data exchange, and other

ITH
V3.22 F
IRMWARE OR HIGHER
: A DCU is no longer necessary and since data exchange is supported across MS/TP-based products, no specific GCL is required for this. GCL programming for mode changes or other strategies may be written in any appropriate controller on the network.
Refer to Appendix G in the V3.22 ORCAview Technical Reference Manual for further programming information.

LINKNET CONNECTION

Device Limitations
Note that there are inherent limitations to the total number of devices per LINKnet network, as well as the number of devices that have outputs. Refer to Appendix G in the V3.22 ORCAview Technical Reference Manual for further information.
Objects
Only the BACstat information that is represented by objects reside nt in the Applicatio n Controller is readily accessible over the network. The objects resident within each BACstat are not directly accessible to other devices in the system. To gain access to BACstat objects, you create objects in the Application Controller that correspond to the objects located in its respective BACstats.
Object Name Description Creation
LCDx01 LinkLCD# Object for BACstat LCD & Button Presses Automatic AIx01 [User Specified] Object for the 10K Temperature Value Manually Avx01, 02, etc. [User Specified] Matching object for the corresponding AV Manually
where “x” refers t o the device address (1 to 12) multiplied by 1 00.
An LCD object is automatically created for each BACstat connected to the LINKnet network. However, the associated AI objects representing the room temperature in each BACstat must be created manually, and must follow a predefined numbering scheme. The object instance number is the LINKnet device address (1 to 12) multiplied by 100, plus 1. For example, you would create AI501 in the Application Controller to represent the 10K thermistor value on a BACstat with a LINKnet device address of 5.
With V3.22 loaded in the Application Controller, AV objects may be created in a similar fashion to the AI objects, which map to corresponding AV objects in the BACstat. You can then use these in GCL programming as well. With V3.21, mapped AV objects are not supported.

GCL Programming
All GCL programming for BACstats on a LINKnet network is written in the Application Controller that the BACstats are connected to, using the mapped objects resident in the Application Controller. The LCD object is used for display and button handling. The mapped AI1 object is used for reading the temperature value. And with at least V3.22 firmware on the Application Controller, the mapped AV objects are used for setpoints and various other settings.
Note: Always use the LCD object for processing button presses over a LINKnet connection, rather than AV4.

: When connected to LINKnet local display and button handling should be
disabled (i.e., AV15 = 1.0), which is the default when you set the LINKnet Communications Setting
. This way, the LCD and buttons are fully accessible from the Application Controller for
N
to O custom programming. Then, with GCL and the LCD and AI objects resident up in the Application Controller, you program the BACstat to operate as you want (similar to how ISTATs were programmed) – all BACstat functionality is written in GCL located in the Applicatio n Controller. Note that none of the AV objects are accessible with V3.21 firmware.
W
ITH
V3.22 F
IRMWARE OR HIGHER
: You may disable local display and button handling (i.e., AV15 = 1.0) and program everything in GCL in the Application Controller as previously described for V3.21 firmware. Or, by setting the Display Code to something other than 1.0 (i.e., 4.0, which is a typical setting), the display and buttons may be configured to function locally and GCL commands from the Application Controller for display and button handling (via the LCD object) are ignored. This may be the preferred method as no GCL needs to be written to handle setpoint adjust and the display of values on the LCD. In addition to this, setpoints and other setti ngs are also accessible through their corresponding AV objects.
Refer to Appendix G in the V3.22 ORCAview Technical Reference Manual for further programming information.
