The Liebert iCOM® control offers the highest capabilities in unit control, communication and moni­toring of Liebert mission-critical cooling units.
Liebert iCOM may be used to combine multiple cooling units into a team that operates as a single entity, enhancing the already-high performance and efficiency of Liebert’s units.
Liebert iCOM is available as a factory-installed assembly or may be retrofitted on existing products with SM, AM or AG controls. Large graphic display wall-mount versions of the control are available for remote operation and monitoring of cooling units.
1.1 Features
Large and Small Displays
The Liebert iCOM control is available with either a large or small liquid crystal display.
•The Liebert iCOM with small display has a 128 x 64 dot matrix screen that simultaneously shows two menu icons, along with descriptive text. This display is capable of controlling only the unit it is directly connected to.
•The Liebert iCOM with large display has a 320 x 240 dot matrix screen that shows up to 16 menu icons at a time, as well as descriptive text. This display can be used to control a single cool­ing unit or any cooling unit on a network, regardless of how it is connected—either integrated into a cooling unit or simply connected to the network and mounted remotely.
Introduction
Liebert iCOM’s menu-driven display is used for all programming functions on each connected cooling unit. The Status menu shows the status of the conditioned space, such as room temperature and humidity, temperature and humidity setpoints, alarm status and settings, event histories and the current time.

Liebert iCOM shows icons and text for monitoring and controlling your Liebert cooling units or net­work of cooling units. The number of icons and amount of text shown depends on the display size.
2.1.1 Control Interface
When the buttons on the Liebert iCOM control have not been pressed for a short period, the display backlight turns off. Pressing any key will turn the backlight on (wake up the screen) and display the Status menu of the last cooling unit viewed. The Status menu will show the cooling unit’s operational mode(s), return air temperature and humidity readings, temperature and humidity setpoints and any active alarm conditions.
If the cooling unit has a large display and is not on a network, or if the unit has a small display, whether it is networked or stand-alone, the Status menu will display only that cooling unit’s informa­tion. Any large display that is connected to a network can be used to view any cooling unit on the net­work or show an average view of the entire system of cooling units.
The Liebert iCOM control has three main menus; User, Service and Advanced.
The User menu contains the most frequently used features, settings and status information. The Ser­vice menu contains settings and features used to set up unit communications and for unit mainte­nance. The Advanced menu contains settings used to set up the unit at the factory.
NOTE
Menu settings may be viewed without a password, but changing settings requires a password. If a password is required, Liebert iCOM shows a prompt to enter the password. The password for the User menu is 1490. The password for Service menu is 5010. For details on entering a password, see Entering a Password on page 6

3.0 OPERATION
Remote On / Off
Display On / Off
The Liebert iCOM display provides viewing, trending and configuration capability for Liebert cooling units. All unit settings and parameters can be viewed and adjusted through three menus: User, Ser­vice and Advanced. All active alarms are displayed on the LCD and annunciated.
The control is shipped from the factory with default selections for all necessary settings. Adjustments can be made if the defaults do not meet your requirements.
References to menu items in this manual are followed by the main menu and the submenu where they can be found.
For example:
• Temperature Setpoint (User Menu, Setpoints) - The Temperature Setpoint parameter is located in the User menu under the Setpoints submenu.
• High Return Humidity (Service Menu, Set Alarms) - The High Return Humidity alarm is located in the Service menu under the Set Alarms submenu.
3.1 Single Unit Functions
3.1.1 Unit/Fan Control
Start - Stop
Unit on means the fan output is activated. The unit can be switched On and Off from two inputs:
• Remote Off - Remote shutdown terminals will turn off the connected unit thus displaying remote off on the front display. This command can also be invoked from a BMS.
• Display Off - When a unit is turned off from the System Screen of a large display, Display OFF is shown for unit status.
• Local OFF - When a unit is turned off from the Unit Status Screen or small display, Local OFF is shown for unit status.
Pressing the On/Off key on a small display will control only the cooling unit it is connected to regard­less, of whether the cooling unit is a stand-alone unit or part of a network.
Operation
NOTE
Pressing the On/Off key on a large display of a stand-alone cooling unit will control only that unit.
The effect of pressing the On/Off key on a large display connected to a network depends on the view: System or Unit.
• In System view, pressing the On/Off key shows a warning asking for confirmation to shut down the entire system.
• In Unit view, pressing the On/Off key affects only the unit being viewed, without a confirmation request.
Each time a unit is powered on or off, an event is added to the Event Log in the User menu.
NOTE
Customer switches: remote On/Off (if used) and display On/Off switches are in series. A cooling unit will start only if both switches are On; if one of these switches is Off, the unit will stop. Safety devices within the unit are also in series and will shut the unit down if required.
Figure 11 Start-stop priority switches
NOTE
If Remote On/Off is not used, a jumper is inserted to bypass the switch.

Page 19
Operation
Autorestart
When there is a loss of power to the cooling unit and power comes back, the unit will return to its pre­vious operating status—on if it was on before the power off, off if it was off.
When power returns, the autorestart time—time-selectable: Single Unit Auto Restart (Service Menu, Options Setup)—controls the start of the unit. If the units are on the same network, the autorestart time runs in a loop, starting each unit in sequence, starting with Unit # 1.
Loss of Power Alarm
A Loss of Power Alarm is activated when power is restored after an interruption. If acknowledged, the alarm resets automatically after 30 minutes. This alarm can be set to different event types (Message, Alarm or Warning) and can be disabled under menu item Loss of Power (Service Menu, Set Alarms).
NOTE
Loss of Power alarm will be activated only on units that had the fan switched On before power was lost.
Fan Alarm / Fan Protection Settings
The fan operation is protected by two digital devices: motor protection (optional) and a differential pressure switch. The motor protection monitors for main fan overload (Main Fan Overload alarm) and the differential pressure switch ensures that the blower(s) are moving air (Loss of Airflow alarm). If either protection device is actuated after an adjustable time delay, an audible alarm occurs, an alarm relay ativates and an event is recorded in the event log (Main Fan Overload and Loss of Airflow in Service Menu, Set Alarms).
The fan delay at the unit start is always five seconds shorter than the control delay (to avoid short­cycling components when the fan is not working).
There are two selection possibilities for both, Loss of Airflow and Main Fan Overload:
• Shutdown—stops the unit (intended for DX models).
• Disable—stops the humidifier, electrical heaters and dehumidification; allows cooling and free-cooling only (intended for chilled water models / external cooling).
NOTE
When the Main Fan Overload alarm is active, the Loss of Airflow alarm is masked out.

Operation
Chilled Water Units with Variable Fan Speed—EC or Variable Frequency Drives
VSD Fan Speed parameter can be found in the Service Menu / Setpoints submenu on page 5 of 6. This menu allows the cooling unit's fan motor speed to be configured and adjusted for a variety of applica­tions.
• Auto Operation: When set to Auto, the speed of the fan motor follows the position of the chilled water valve based on predetermined logic for cooling and dehumidification operation. Auto opera­tion can be set with either return or supply air control.
• Manual Operation: When set to Manual, the speed of the fan motor follows user input as set either locally at the Liebert iCOM display or remotely via a Modbus signal with an optional Lie­bert IntelliSlot® 485 card.
• Economy Operation (GLYCOOL or dual-cool units only): When set to Economy, the speed of the fan motor follows the Free Cooling or Dual Cool water valve. The fan speed will go to the STD set­point (Service Menu, Setpoints) when a compressor activates to prevent pre-cooling of the DX coil.
• Delta Operation: When set to Delta, the speed of the fan motor is controlled by two temperature sensors (optional). The sensor temperature readings will be compared and a delta between the two sensors will be determined. The delta of the two sensors will be compared to the fan speed delta setpoint and will determine the correct fan speed. This control can be adjusted using the Fan Speed P-Band and the Fan Speed Integration to determine the rate of change based on the sensor delta. Delta operation enhances air flow control when a containment solution is being uti­lized. This is accomplished by maintaining the correct airflow based on the inner and outer con­tainment temperatures.
• Return Operation: When set to Return, the speed of the fan motor is controlled by the return air sensor and the cooling capacity is controlled from the supply sensor (optional). This allows the return air sensor to be left in the return air of the unit or placed remotely. If placed remotely make sure that the sensor is mounted with the connected unit's area of influence.
Additional fan speed configuration parameters include a fan speed filter and fan speed reposition delay timer. These parameters allow the fine tuning of the fan speed control and can be applied to any control mode except Manual.
• The fan speed filter allows the fan to react differently depending on the location of the control point within the proportional band.
Example: When the temperature is close to setpoint or lower in the proportional band the fan speed changes are slow to avoid overshooting the setpoint. However, when the temperature is fur­ther away from setpoint or higher in the proportional band the control will respond quickly.
• The fan speed reposition delay timer can be adjusted to prevent the fans from oscillating. This delay timer will only allow the fan speed to decrease when the timer expires. Increases in fan speed are not limited by this delay.
NOTE
• The fan speed lower and upper limit settings are defaulted to 60% and 100%. These parameters can be adjusted to operate at any point between the default settings.
• The standard fan speed control will be overridden during a call for Dehumidification. When there is a call for Dehumidification, the fan speed will change to the VSD Setpoint Dehum parameter found in the Service Menu, Setpoints.
• The standard fan speed control will be overridden during a call for Humidification or Reheat. During a call for Humidification or Reheat ,the fan speed will change to 100% to eliminate the possibility of condensation or damage to the unit.
VSD Setpoint (VSD Fan Speed Setting)
If the VSD Fan Speed Control (Service Menu, Setpoints) is set for Manual, the VSD Fan Speed Set­point (Service Menu, Setpoints) may be set for the desired speed of the variable speed motor.
Depending on the product control design, there may be an internal minimum speed, as defined by that specific product operation, while the customer input may be set for 0-100%:
• Fan speed may be set locally at the unit using the Liebert iCOM display.
• Fan speed may be set remotely via a BMS signal (sent via Modbus using an optional Liebert Intel­liSlot 485 card), which then transmits to the unit local control.

3.1.2 General Compressor Requirements Low-Pressure Time Delay
When the compressor starts, the low-pressure input is ignored for a selected period of time based on the setting of the Low Pressure Alarm Delay (Service Menu, Options Setup). This time is usually set to 3 minutes on air-cooled units, and to 0 or 1 minute on water cooled units. When this time is expired, a second timer starts to operate if the low-pressure input is active. This second timer is active during normal compressor operation to avoid compressor trips due to bubbles in the refrigerant or other influences creating short trips of the low-pressure switch. The low-pressure switch input is enabled only if the compressor is operating. Exception: Pump Down (see Pump Down).
NOTE
Low-pressure condition could be read through contacts or through pressure transducers with threshold setting.
Pump Down
The Pump Down operation is performed to protect the compressor oil from being diluted with liquid refrigerant to ensure that the compressor is properly lubricated for the next startup. The Pump Down operation operates in the following manner:
Whenever the control determines that no more cooling is required and a compressor needs to be shut off, the liquid line solenoid valve (LLSV) is closed (de-energized). The compressor will continue to operate until the low suction pressure switch (LPS) opens, which shuts off the compressor. If the LPS does not open within a specified time, the LLSV is turned On, then back Off (the assumption is that the LLSV is stuck). If, after three times, , the LPS does not open, the compressor and LLSV are locked off and an alarm “Pump Down not completed” will appear.
Operation
There is a re-pump down if the LPS opens again after the compressor has been already stopped—a maximum of six re-pump-down cycles per hour are allowed. At the seventh request of re-pump down the alarm “Comp 1 Pumpdown Fail” or “Comp 2 Pumpdown Fail” will appear and the compressor will be locked out.
Pump down is always performed loaded (for compressors with unloaders: unloaders off, digital scroll: control solenoid valve disabled).
For digital scroll only: when pump down has finished successfully (LPS opened), pump down will be continued for another half-second with the control solenoid valve energized.
High Pressure Alarm
When the compressor is initially activated, the system will be monitored for a high pressure situation. When a high pressure situation is detected during the first 10 minutes of operation, the unit will attempt to correct the problem several times without notification. If the unit is unsuccessful in cor­recting the problem, an alarm will occur and the affected compressor will be locked off. If high head pressure alarm trips three times in a rolling 12 hour period, the affected compressor will be locked off.
After the compressor has been running for 10 minutes, if a high head pressure situation is detected, an alarm will occur and the affected compressor will be immediately locked off without the unit trying to correct the problem.
Once the compressor is locked off, it will not come back on until main power is reset, or until the HP Alarm Counters (Service Menu, Diagnostics) are reset to 0. Setting the counter to 0 will auto-reset the alarm without the need of pressing the reset button on the display. Even if the pressure in the system drops below the alarm point, the compressor will remain off until the system is reset.
NOTE
If the unit is equipped with manual reset high head pressure switches, or if the auto reset high head pressure switches don’t reset, the compressor will not be turned back on, but there will be a 30-second delay from when the high head pressure situation occurs and when the alarm is annunciated.

Digital Scroll High Temperature
A protective maximum operating compressor temperature limit is imposed on units with digital scroll compressor(s) with thermistor. If the digital scroll temperature reaches the maximum temperature threshold, the compressor will be locked out for at least 30 minutes and an alarm will be annunciated. If after 30 minutes the temperature has cooled to a safe operating temperature, the compressor will resume operation.
Each time a high-temperature alarm occurs, HT 1 Alarm Counter (Service Menu, Diagnostics) or HT 2 Alarm Counter (Service Menu, Diagnostics) is increased by one. Once these counters reach five occurrences in a rolling four-hour period, the compressor will be locked out. The alarm can be reset once the temperature returns to a safe level by:
1. Setting the counter back to 0 from the display and pressing the alarm reset button.
2. Shutting off power to the control board by turning the cooling unit's main power disconnect switch
Off and On.
3.1.3 Compressor Timing—Short-Cycle Protection
To help maximize the life of your compressor(s), there is a start-to-next start delay for each single compressor.
NOTE
This delay may cause a short cycle if there is a very light room load. A short cycle means that the compressor has cycled On and Off 10 times in the past hour. Should this occur, contact your local Emerson representative to adjust the minimum compressor off delay.
Operation
3.1.4 Compressor Sequencing on Two-Compressor Units
Compressor Sequencing parameter (Service Menu, Options Setup) is intended to maintain equal run times between compressors. This setting has three selection possibilities:
• Always use Compressor 1 as lead compressor
• Always use Compressor 2 as lead compressor
•Auto:
• First priority: if the safety timings are acceptable for only one compressor, then it is the next to be started/stopped.
• If both compressors are off: the one with fewer working hours is the next to start.
• If both compressors are in operation: the one that has been operating longer since the last start is the next to be stopped.
NOTE
The Auto setting attempts to maintain equal run times between compressors.
3.1.5 Motorized Ball Valve in Digital Scroll Units
On water/glycol-cooled digital scroll units, discharge pressure is controlled by a motorized ball valve (MBV). During unloaded operation, pressure changes during each digital cycle could cause a pres­sure-controlled water regulating valve to open and close an excessive number of times. The motorized ball valve is designed to maintain a consistent peak discharge pressure.
The control algorithm for the motorized ball valve uses an intelligent sampling rate and adjustable pressure thresholds to reduce the number of times the valve opens and closes. The valve assembly consists of the brass valve, linkage and actuator.
Each compressor has one motorized ball valve that is driven by the analog output of the Liebert iCOM control board based on discharge pressure. If there is a call for cooling, the compressor start is delayed by a 30-second timer. During this delay, the motorized ball valve is set to 50% open to allow fluid flow through the unit condenser. The compressor will start after the 30-second timer elapses.
Motorized Ball Valve Manual Mode: (Service/Service) Manual operation can be selected to allow service personnel to control the motorized ball valve from the Liebert iCOM control.
16
Page 23
When Auto BV Control is selected, the motorized ball valve functions as it would be during normal system operation.
NOTE
Compressor operation will be delayed 30 seconds to allow the motorized ball valve to position itself for initial startup.
When Manual BV Control is selected, the user must be careful in setting the MBV position because the ball valves will remain in the position set in the Service menu until the control is switched back to Auto or until a technician changes the valves to another manual position (the motorized ball valve in manual mode can be set in 1% increments from fully closed to fully open). Low- or high-discharge pressure may occur during this mode, depending on environmental conditions and the position of the motorized ball valve.
The motorized ball valve is driven by a 2-10VDC proportional control signal: the valve is closed at 2VDC, 50% open at 6VDC and fully open at 10 VDC.
3.1.6 MBV Operation After Compressor is Turned Off
Once a compressor has stopped, the MBV control will continue to change the MBV position to main­tain system pressures for a maximum time of 10 minutes by following the auto BV control algorythm. When the 10-minute delay has expired or the discharge pressure is below its minimum threshold the motorized ball valve will close until the next compressor activation.
3.1.7 Service Offset—Changing System Pressure Settings
Operation
The MBV control is set to maintain a system pressure specific to the particular type of cooling unit. A properly trained and qualified technician can increase or decrease the pressure through the Ball Valve Setpoint Offset found in the Service/Options Setup menu. The range is 0 to 50 PSI; the default is 30 PSI.
NOTE
Adjusting this parameter will increase or decrease the operating compressor discharge pressure by changing the targeted range of control. The discharge pressure is the peak pressure of the digital cycle.

3.2.1 Temperature Proportional Band
The control uses the temperature proportional band to determine which operation to perform (cool­ing/heating) and how much capacity to provide. The Temperature Proportional Band is a user-defined range that is divided into two equal parts for cooling and heating. The Temperature Setpoint is between these two equal parts.
An optional Temperature Deadband range can be defined, which is equally divided on either side of the setpoint and separates the two halves of the proportional band. Figure 12 illustrates how the temperature proportional band is evenly divided on either side of the temperature setpoint, with and without a deadband.
Figure 12 Temperature proportional band
Operation
The control works the same for both supplyor return air control. When air temperature deviates from the setpoint, the control will bring on cooling or heating. If the actual air temperature increases, the control calls for 0% (none) to 100% (full) cooling capacity based on how much the temperature exceeds the setpoint. If the return air temperature decreases, the control calls for 0% to -100% (none to full) heating capacity based on how far the temperature is below the setpoint.
When the return air temperature reaches the end of the proportional band, either 100% or -100%, full cooling or full heating capacity is provided. No operation is performed when a 0% call is calculated or the temperature is within the deadband. The control varies the call for cooling and heating in 1% increments as the air temperature moves through the proportional band halves.
The deadband range is used to widen the setpoint. When the air temperature falls within the dead­band, the control operates the same as if the temperature equaled the setpoint exactly. This setting helps maximize component life by preventing excessive component cycling.
NOTE
The temperature deadband prevents small temperature changes from activating compressors and valves.
The Temperature Proportional Band and Temperature Deadband parameters are in the Service menu under the Setpoints submenu. The Temperature Setpoint parameter is in both the User Menu and Service Menu under Setpoints.
There is a parameter AutoSet Enable (Service Menu, Setpoints), which automatically sets the propor­tional bands for temperature and humidity, and both the integration time factors according to the type of unit (chilled water, single or dual compressor).
NOTE
Before the proportional or integral setpoints can be changed, the Auto Set Enable must be changed to NO.

The first two-step compressor is started unloaded at 33% calculated output from the temperature pro­portional band and stopped at 17%. At 80% Compressor 1 will be loaded, at 70% unloaded.
The second compressor starts unloaded at 63% and stops at 47%. At 100%, Compressor 2 will be loaded, at 90% unloaded (see Figure 15).
The four stages of cooling are accomplished in the following manner:
• 1 stage: One compressor, unloaded - Cool 1
• 2 stages: Both compressors, unloaded - Cool 2
• 3 stages: One compressor, loaded and one compressor, unloaded - Cool 3
• 4 stages: Both compressors, loaded - Cool 4
Figure 15 Two compressors with unloaders (four-step)
Operation
Digital Scroll Compressors
A digital scroll compressor can modulate its capacity anywhere between 10-100%. This variable capacity modulation allows cooling units to control an environment more precisely.
Digital scroll capacity modulation is achieved by energizing and de-energizing a solenoid valve on the compressor. When the solenoid valve is de-energized, the compressor capacity is 100%. When the sole­noid valve is energized, the compressor capacity is zero. Therefore, the capacity of the compressor depends on how long the solenoid is de-energized for. If the solenoid is de-energized for 10-seconds, then energized for 5 seconds during a 15-second cycle, the resulting capacity will be 66% as shown in Figure 16.

output from the temperature proportional band and stopped at 10%. On dual digital scroll compressor systems, the second compressor is started at 35% and stopped at 20%, see Figure 17. When a com­pressor is started, the solenoid is energized longer than it is de-energized to match the call for cooling. When the call for cooling increases to 100%, the solenoid is de-energized for the entire 15 second cycle.

3.2.3 Chilled Water Control
The chilled water control valve is adjusted proportionally as the temperature control varies the requirement for cooling from 0% to 100%. A three-point actuator or motorized ball valve is used for chilled water cooling, as well as free-cooling hot water or heating.
The three-point actuator is driven through two digital outputs: Open and Close. The control deter­mines the valve position by timing how long the open or closed signals have been active based on the valve travel time set in the Service menu / Setup submenu. To determine the initial position of the valve, the unit must perform a 3P Reset. The 3P Reset closes the valve for a time of 110% of the 3P Actuator run time. This calibrates the valve with the controller and ensures that it is closed. A 3P Reset is also performed if the fan is switched off for any reason (timer off, unit off, etc.). Once the reset is performed.
The three-point actuator can be configured to utilize the pre-wired feedback signal provided from the factory. Enabling the feedback signal will eliminate the need to drive the valve closed after a loss of power or Unit Off command, decreasing the unit’s restart time. Authorized Emerson personnel should use the following steps to enable the feedback signal:
1. The feedback on the control valve uses Analog Input 1.
2. Nothing can be connected to Analog Input 1 P11 pins 1 through 4.
3. Control board DIP switch SW2 Switch 1 must be ON, Switch 2 must be OFF.
Figure 18 DIP switch locations on Liebert iCOM control board
Operation
4. P68 must have a jumper placed between the top and bottom two pins on the left side and one placed between the top and bottom pins on the right side, the two middle pins should be left unconnected.
5. Next go to Service/Diagnostics Service Menu and find S379. Set this option to Feedback and note that S380 will go to Yes and S381 will go to Ongoing. If Feedback is already selected then go to line S380 and manually select Yes. This means that the Liebert iCOM is doing auto calibration on the valve using the feedback now available through the potentiometer. Wait for S381 to say Idle and then the process is complete.

output. The analog output is driven proportionally to the call for cooling as shown in Figure 19. Larger chill water units may contain two motorized ball valves in which both valves are controlled in parallel.
NOTE
Depending on the valve specifications, the voltage output may be a 0-10VDC or a 2-10VDC that is scaled automatically within the control.

3.3 Temperature Control—Second Cooling Source
Certain cooling units are available with a second source of cooling within the unit. These typically are compressorized models with an additional chilled water or free-cooling coil.
Operation
3.3.1 Differential Temperatures / Controls (Comparator Circuit)
Delta T (Temperature Difference) Between Room and Glycol
The comparator circuit determines if the glycol / chilled water temperature of the second cooling source is low enough to provide at least partial cooling capacity. The comparator circuit has three set­tings (DT Between Room / FC Type, [Service Menu, Setpoints]):
•No
•Contact
•Value
The No setting is for standard compressorized and chilled water units that do not have a second cool­ing source. The No setting can also be used to disable the second source of cooling.
The Contact setting is used when an external input is being used to determine when the second cool­ing source is to be activated. The external control communicates to the Liebert unit via contact clo­sure.
• Closed = cooling enabled
• Open = cooling disabled.
The Value setting is the factory default setting (8°F [4.4°C]) on free-cooling and dual cooling units. If the temperature difference between the second source cooling fluid parameter, Free-cooling Fluid Temperature (User Menu, Sensor Data) and room air is equal to or greater than the adjustable DT Between Room Air / FC Fluid (Service Menu, Setpoints) value, then the second source cooling fluid will be used to provide at least partial cooling.
Sensors used for this delta T are: room/local sensor or the return air sensor; and the glycol sensor.
If this delta T is true, the following actions will be performed:
1. The Free-Cooling Status indication will show “On” instead of “Off”.
2. The compressor band will be shifted to the right by 100%, and within the first 100% the free­cooling valve band will take place (see Figure 20).
The cooling portion of the proportional band is doubled, with the first half of the band controlling
the free-cooling valve and the second half controlling the compressors.

Minimum Chilled Water Temperature—This feature permits the user to select the minimum chilled water temperature that allows simultaneous operation of the second cooling source (chilled water control) and compressor control. This feature is enabled in the Service menu under Setpoints, parameter Minimum CW Temp.
Operation
If the water temperature is below this minimum chilled water setpoint, parameter Minimum CW Temp Value, (Service Menu, Setpoints), the control will operate ONLY the second cooling source con­trol, i.e., the compressor is locked out. Above the minimum chilled water setpoint, assuming the fluid temperature is below the return room air temperature (delta T between room and glycol = true), the control will operate the second cooling source control and compressor control simultaneously if needed.
If the Minimum CW Temp is disabled, the second cooling source temperature is ignored, the control will always operate the second cooling source and compressors simultaneously when the load requires it.
GLYCOOL™ Cooling—Free-Cooling
When GLYCOOL cooling is available, the temperature control will calculate a total cooling require­ment of 200% rather than 100%. Assuming that full GLYCOOL capacity is available, the GLYCOOL valve opens proportionally as the requirement for cooling rises from 0 to 100%. If more than 100% cooling is required, then the compressors are activated at 150% and 200% respectively (133%, 163%, 180% and 200% for a four-step system). If full GLYCOOL capacity is not available, then the GLY­COOL valve will be opened proportionally over a cooling requirement band equal to the available GLYCOOL capacity. The compressors would be activated when the GLYCOOL capacity is exceeded.
For example, if the GLYCOOL capacity is 60%, then the GLYCOOL valve would be full open at 60% cooling requirement and the compressors would activate at 110% and 160% cooling requirement. In order to reduce compressor cycling and prevent hunting, GLYCOOL capacity first becomes available when the entering glycol temperature is at least 8°F (4.4°C) (22% capacity) below the return air tem­perature, or 3°F (1.7°C) below the return air temperature for two hours. GLYCOOL capacity is 100% when the glycol temperature is 25°F (13.9°C) below the return air temperature. The system will con­tinue to operate in Econ-O-Cool mode as necessary as long as the entering glycol temperature remains at least 3°F (1.7°C) (0% capacity) below the return air temperature. If GLYCOOL is not available, the temperature control will operate the compressors in the same manner as a two-step or four-step system without GLYCOOL.
Dual Cooling Source
If dual cooling is available, the system operates in the same manner as a GLYCOOL system, except that it is assumed that 100% chilled water capacity is available any time the chilled water tempera­ture is 3°F (1.7°C) below the return air temperature.

3.4.1 Three-Stage Electric, Hot Gas and Hot Water Reheat
The Reheat Proportional Band is divided into three equal parts, each representing one reheat stage. As the Temperature Proportional Band increases the call for heating from 0% to -100%, stages 1 through 3 are switched On, as shown in Figure 21. Your unit will have one of the nine reheat config­uration types shown in Table 4.

3.4.2 SCR Reheat
SCR reheat is a type of electric reheat that provides tighter temperature control than staged electric reheat. SCR reheat capacity modulation is achieved by pulsing the reheat On and Off. Full capacity is achieved by constantly energizing the reheat. Units equipped with SCR reheat can operate in Tight or Standard mode. By default, cooling units with SCR reheat are factory-set to operate in Tight mode. The mode of operation can be set by adjusting the SCR Control Type parameter (Service Menu, Set­points).
Tight Mode
In Tight mode, the compressors and reheats are operated at the same time to provide maximum tem-
perature control. The temperature deadband is set to zero at the factory. In a cooling unit with SCR reheat and two single-step compressors, the first single-step compressor is started and full reheat

cooling increases from 0% to 100%, the reheat capacity is slowly reduced by pulsing the reheat. At 100% call for cooling, the reheat is deactivated and the second single-step compressor is started. As the call for cooling is reduced, the reheat capacity is slowly increased. When the call for cooling returns to 0%, the second single-step compressor is deactivated.
If the Temperature Proportional Band calculates a call for heating from 0% to -200%, the first sin­gle-step compressor remains activated and full reheat capacity is provided. Based on the factory default settings, the first single-step compressor is deactivated when the control reaches -200% call for heating. The compressor remains deactivated until the control calls for 0% heating. The compres­sor activation and deactivation points can be adjusted in the Service menu under Setpoints. Figure 22 illustrates how a cooling unit with two single-step compressors and SCR reheat operates when the SCR Control Type is set to Tight mode.
NOTE
Some cooling units are not suited for a strict NO LOAD application. These cooling units require a minimal load in the space. Consult factory for verification.

Operation
Standard Mode
In Standard mode, the SCR reheat operates only when the Temperature Proportional Band calls for heating. SCR reheat output is adjusted proportionally as the Temperature Proportional Band varies the requirement for heating from 0% to -100%. Compressors operate only when there is a call for cool­ing as described in 3.2.2 - Compressor Control.
Figure 23 illustrates how SCR reheat operates when SCR Control Type is set to Standard mode.

3.5 Humidity Control
The control uses the humidity proportional band to determine which operation to perform (dehumidi­fication/humidification) and how much capacity to provide. The Humidity Proportional Band is a user defined range that is divided into two equal parts for dehumidifying and humidifying. The Humidity Setpoint is located between these two equal parts.
An optional Humidity Deadband range can be defined, which is equally divided on either side of the set­point and separates the two halves of the proportional band. Figure 24 illustrates how the humidity pro­portional band is evenly divided on either side of the humidity setpoint, with and without a deadband.
Figure 24 Humidity proportional band
When the return air humidity deviates from the setpoint, either dehumidification or humidification is activated. If the return air humidity increases, the control calls for 0% (none) to 100% (full) dehumid­ifying capacity, based on how far the humidity penetrates the dehumidification portion of the propor­tional band. If the return air humidity decreases, the control calls for 0% (none) to -100% (full) humidifying capacity based on how far the humidity penetrates the humidification portion of the pro­portional band.
27
Page 34
When the return air humidity reaches the end of the proportional band, either 100% or -100%, full dehumidification or full humidification capacity is provided. No operation is performed when a 0% call is calculated. The control varies the call for dehumidifying and humidifying in 1% increments as the return air humidity moves through the proportional band halves.
The deadband range is used to widen the setpoint. When the return air humidity falls within the deadband, the control operates the same as if the humidity equaled the setpoint exactly. This setting helps maximize component life by preventing excessive component cycling. The Humidity Propor­tional Band and Humidity Deadband parameters are in the Service menu under the Setpoints sub­menu. The Humidity Setpoint parameter is in both the User menu and Service menu under Setpoints.

There are two types of infrared humidifiers: small pan (IFS) and large pan (IFL). The operating mode of each is similar, however, some of the variables or timings differ. The Challenger has different fill times because of the size ofthe pan.S
Infrared humidifiers are started at 100% humidification request, and stopped at 0%. Infrared humid­ifiers cannot be driven in proportional mode.

Operation
Liebert
Challenger
An autoflush system automatically controls a water makeup valve to maintain proper levels in the infrared humidifier water pan during humidifier operation. If humidification is needed and 15 hours have elapsed since the last time the humidifier was on, then the humidifier is not turned on until the valve completes an initial fill of the humidifier pan. This pre-fill is about 30 seconds for a small pan and 60 seconds for a large pan. The valve continues to fill and flush the pan for about 4-1/2 minutes for a small pan or 7-1/2 minutes for a large pan. Pan size is selected based on unit specifications and is preset at the factory.
During humidifier operation, with the flush rate set at the default of 150%, the valve is opened peri­odically to add water to the pan (about 45 seconds every 7 minutes of humidifier operation for a small pan, or 80 seconds every 10 minutes of operation for a large pan). This adds enough water to the pan to cause about a third of the total water used to be flushed out of the overflow standpipe located in the humidifier pan. This action helps to remove solids from the pan. The flush rate is adjustable from 110% to 500% in 10% intervals. Default is 150%. If the water quality is poor, it may be desirable to increase the water flushing action above the normal 150% rate. Also, if the supply water pressure is low, the flush rate adjustment can be increased so that sufficient water level is maintained during humidification. The flush rate parameter, Infrared Flush Rate (Service Menu, Options Setup), is adjustable from 110%-500%.
External Humidifier Control—Optional
A factory-supplied option may be provided to allow a start-stop command to be sent to the control of a remote-mounted humidifier.
Steam Generating Canister Humidifier
The Steam Generating Humidifier has its own separate control board that manages the canister and steam rate. Liebert iCOM sends an On-Off command to relay a call for humidification.

3.5.2 Dehumidification
The Dehumidification Enable parameter (Service Menu, Options Setup) allows for enabling/disabling the dehumidification function.
A call for dehumidification is calculated in the same way as a cooling request. The components (valves, compressors) will follow this dehumidification request as soon as it is higher than the request for cooling.
Dehumidification Low Limit
Low Limit 1 and Low Limit 2 are used to avoid overcooling a room during dehumidification. When a low limit is reached, a compressor or the liquid cooling source that is used for dehumidification is dis­abled. It is re-enabled when the return air temperature rises. The Low Limit 1 and 2 settings are in the Service menu under Setpoints.
Low Limit 1: Low Limit 1 will disable one of two compressors for dehumidification. If only one com­pressor is set for dehumidification, or if the dehumidification source is chilled water, this limit will not be visible and will be inactive.
Low Limit 2: Low Limit 2 will disable both compressors for dehumidification. This limit will also stop dehumidification in single compressor units and in chilled water units.
The limits become active when the return air temperature drops below a temperature value equal to the sum of the temperature setpoint plus the value set on Low Limit 1 and 2 (the Low Limit settings are negative values).
Operation
A dehumidification source is deactivated if the return air temperature drops below the Deactivation Temperature, as in this example:
Temperature Setpoint: 70°F (21.1°C)
Low Limit Value: -7°F (-3.8°C)
Deactivation Temperature: 62°F (16.6°C)
NOTE
If a cooling unit is equipped with SCR reheat and the SCR Control Type parameter is set to Tight mode, then Low Limit 2 will be ignored, see 3.4 - Temperature Control—Reheat.
Dehumidification Compressor Quantity
Under Factory Settings in the Advanced menu there is an item called Dehumidification With Comp. This item will be set to either 1, 2, 1 or 2, or BOTH. This setting determines which compressors are used for dehumidification. It also determines if Low Limit 1 will be available and impacts how the reheats will operate during dehumidification. The Dehumidification With Comp field is set when the cooling unit is built and should not be adjusted without consulting the factory first. Table 6 outlines which Low Limit settings will be available, based on the Dehumidification With Comp selection.
Table 6 Dehumidification With Comp settings

Operation
Reheat During Dehumidification
Hot gas reheat or hot water reheat will start as described in 3.4 - Temperature Control—Reheat, when the temperature decreases during the dehumidification process.
The parameter Electric Reheat Operation defines how the heaters react in case the temperature decreases during the dehumidification process. This parameter does not impact SCR reheat opera­tion. The Electric Reheat Operation parameter is in the Advanced menu under Factory Settings and should not be adjusted without factory approval.
No—No electric reheat allowed during dehumidification process. Delayed—This setting applies only to two-compressor units with BOTH compressors selected for
dehumidification. The electric reheats are prevented from turning on until Low Limit 1 is reached. At this condition, one stage of dehumidification is disabled and the reheats are activated. At Low Limit 2, both stages of dehumidification are disabled. When Delayed is selected on units with a single compressor selected for dehumidification (Dehumidification With Comp Setting: 1, 2, and 1 or 2), the reheats will operate in the same manner as they do for Staged as described below. Delayed is the default setting for Liebert DS units.
Staged—This setting applies to one or two compressor units. Electric heaters will stage as described in 3.4.1 - Three-Stage Electric, Hot Gas and Hot Water Reheat. Staged is the default setting for Challenger 3000 units. On two compressor units with staged reheat selected and Dehumidification With Comp set to BOTH, the control allows for operating two compressors and reheats simultane­ously. It is very important that electrical service to the unit be sized and wired for this option if selected.
WARNING
!
If the electrical service to the unit is not properly sized, it could trip the building circuit breakers (or fuses) or, in extreme cases, damage the building wiring. This Warning applies only when the Dehumidification With Comp is set to BOTH and the Electric Reheat Operation is set to Staged. Consult factory before making any changes to the default settings.
3.6 Control Types
3.6.1 Temperature and Humidity Control Types
The Liebert iCOM control has three Temperature and Humidity Control Types: Proportional, PI and Intelligent. Each control type affects the timing and intensity of the cooling/heating and humidify­ing/dehumidifying operations. The Control Type parameter is in the Service menu under Setpoints.
Proportional—If Proportional Control is selected, the percent cooling/heating requirement is deter­mined by the difference between the air temperature sensor reading and the temperature setpoint. As the air temperature rises above the temperature setpoint, the percent cooling required increases pro­portionally (from 0 to 100%) over half the programmable temperature proportional band (See 3.2.1 - Temperature Proportional Band). The percent heating requirement (0 to -100%) is determined the same way when the air temperature falls below the setpoint. The humidifying/dehumidifying operations are controlled in the same manner as the cooling/heating operations; however, the humid­ity sensors, setpoints and proportional bands are utilized. The Proportional control type is commonly selected on compressorized units.
PI—If PI Control is selected, the percent cooling/heating requirement is calculated by adding together two individual terms, proportional and integral. The proportional term is calculated in a manner similar to the previously described Proportional control. The integral term (sometimes called “reset action”) is calculated by measuring how much and for how long the air temperature/humidity has been above or below the setpoint. If the actual air temperature/humidity is above the setpoint, the percent requirement is slowly but continuously increased until the total is sufficient to bring the return room air back to the setpoint. This control type is commonly selected on freecooling and dual­cool units.
Intelligent—If Intelligent Control is selected, the air temperature/humidity is controlled at or near the setpoint. The percent temperature/humidity adjustment required is calculated based on logic that
30
Page 37
is programmed into the control. These rules simulate the actions that a human operator would take if manually controlling the system. This control type is commonly selected on chilled water units.
NOTE
The actual air temperature sensor reading is always displayed on the Status menu. The value displayed for the return air humidity sensor reading depends on the Humidity Sensor Control Type (see 3.6.2 - Humidity Sensor Reading Control Types).
3.6.2 Humidity Sensor Reading Control Types
The Liebert iCOM control has three humidity sensor control types: Relative, Compensated and Pre­dictive. The humidity sensor control adjusts how the Temperature and Humidity Control determines the percent requirement for humidification/dehumidification. The humidity sensor control type parameter, Humidity Control Type, is in both the User and Service menus under Setpoints.
Relative—The actual return air humidity sensor reading is sent to the Temperature and Humidity Control to determine if and how much humidification/dehumidification is required. The actual return air humidity reading is displayed on the Status menu. Unnecessary dehumidification can result when overcooling occurs during a dehumidification cycle. This is because a higher than normal relative humidity (RH) reading is caused by overcooling the room. This extends the dehumidification cycle. Later, when the dehumidification ends and the return air temperature rises to the setpoint, the RH reading falls. The final RH reading will then be lower than actually desired. If significant overcooling occurred, the RH could be low enough to activate the humidifier.
Compensated—The actual return air humidity sensor reading is sent to the Temperature and Humidity Control where the Humidity Setpoint is adjusted based on how much the return room air temperature deviates from the desired temperature setpoint. The adjusted humidity setpoint is used for humidification percent requirement determination. For every 1°C deviation from the temperature setpoint the humidity setpoint is changed by 3% RH, inversely proportional: if the temperature increases, the humidity setpoint is decreased, and vice versa. The recalculated humidity setpoint is shown as the Actual Humidity Setpoint (User Menu, Sensor Data). As the humidity setpoint is auto­matically adjusted, the high and low humidity setpoints (User Menu, Set Alarms) are adjusted accordingly. The unadjusted humidity sensor reading is displayed on the Status menu.
Predictive—The actual return air humidity sensor reading is adjusted before it is sent to the Tem­perature and Humidity Control. The humidity sensor reading is adjusted based on how much the return room air temperature deviates from the desired temperature setpoint. For every 1°C deviation from the temperature setpoint, the humidity sensor reading is changed by 3% RH, directly propor­tional: if the temperature increases, the humidity reading is increased and vice versa. The adjusted humidity sensor reading is displayed on the Status menu. Units are shipped from the factory with Predictive humidity control set as default.
If Compensated or Predictive humidity sensor control is selected, overdehumidification is avoided. When overcooling occurs, causing an increase in the relative humidity sensor reading, the humidity control program predicts what the RH will be when the dehumidification cycle ends and return air temperature returns to the setpoint. This allows the dehumidification cycle to end at the proper time. The Compensated and Predictive humidity sensor control can reduce energy consumption by mini­mizing compressor and reheat operation, and eliminating unnecessary humidifier operation.
Operation
NOTE
The historical humidity sensor graphs will display the real (unadjusted) sensor readings, no matter which Humidity Control Sensor Type is selected. The graphical sensor data is in the User menu under Graphics.

3.7 Supply Control
3.7.1 Supply Air
The Supply Air sensor can be used to control, limit or reference the discharge air temperature of the cooling unit. The desired supply sensor operation can be selected in the Service, Setpoints menu. The optional supply air temperature sensor allows use of either the Supply Air control or the Supply Limit control. This sensor can be added to existing Liebert iCOM controls by purchasing the supply sensor and wiring harness. The supply air sensor must be connected to P13 pins 1 & 2. Contact your local Emerson representative for pricing and installation.
• Supply Control: When the supply sensor is set to Control, the unit will control the amount of cooling / heating being provided based on maintaining the discharge air temperature. The return air sensor will still control the humidity of the room.
NOTE
If unit is equipped with a 3P actuator type valve then the valve must be changed to utilize the feedback signal. See 3.2.3 - Chilled Water Control.
• Supply Limit: Chilled water units may be set up with the supply air sensor to maintain a mini­mum air temperature under a raised floor to help prevent condensation. In order to avoid supply temperatures that are too low, the Supply Limit can influence the opening of three-point or ana­log actuators or the output of analog values. The control compares the deviation from the return air setpoint and the supply limit setpoint, and calculates the output to the actuator from the smaller deviation.
• Cooling Only: When Cooling Only is selected, the cooling capacity of the system (valve or com­pressor) is modulated based on the supply temperature, but allows the fan speed to be controlled by a different sensor.
• Disable: Setting the supply sensor to Disable will allow the supply sensor to be monitored but will not affect the control output of the unit.
Operation
NOTE
Supply control and limit are calculated on each unit, independent of the other sensor readings on the network.
When the supply air sensor is set up for Supply control, additional Supply Air configuration parameters (valve pulse, cooling filters and return compensation) can be used to further enhance the supply air control.
• The valve pulse and cooling filter timer can be adjusted to prevent oscillating around the supply setpoint and still allow for rapid valve adjustments to compensate for heat load changes. Contact your local Liebert service personnel for adjustments.
• Return Compensation begins to increase the supply air setpoint when the return air decreases below the return air setpoint.
Example
Setting the return compensation value in the Service, Setpoints menu to 5°F (2.7°C) will increase the supply setpoint from 50°F to 55°F (10°C to12.8°C) when the return temperature is at the low limit of the proportional band.

3.8 Event Types and Properties
Liebert iCOM events are used to inform the user of cooling unit operational status. All events are recorded in the Event Log, which is in the User Menu. The user can change the type (alarm, warn, message) and time delay of some events and can also enable or disable some events. These event set­tings are in the Service Menu under Set Alarms, pages 3 to 7. If an event has a safety function (high pressure, low pressure, main fan overload, etc.) the safety function will be executed in any case, inde­pendent of the selected event type or if enabled or disabled. The timing will function as set.
NOTE
Not all critical event properties can be adjusted.
Event Types
• Message: If this event occurs, it will only be entered into the event log.
• Warning: If this event occurs, a warning will be generated and entered into the event log. The general alarm relay will be activated only if parameter Warning Activates Alarm Relay located in the Service menu under Alarm Setup is set to Yes (Yes is the default setting from the factory)
• Alarm: If this event occurs, an alarm will be generated and entered into the event log. An alarm does not necessarily switch off the whole cooling unit; it depends on which alarm occurs. If a standby unit is set, any alarm will stop the faulty unit and ask the standby unit to start. Standby activation is achieved on alarms ONLY; messages or warnings will not start the standby unit. For more on standby units, see 4.0 - Teamwork.
Time Delay
Delays the event reaction once it is triggered. The time delay applies to safety functions and is entered in seconds.
Enable or Disable
Disabled events do not show up in the event log, on the display or on monitoring devices. Also, the common alarm relay will not be activated if a disabled alarm occurs. Safety functions, such as lockout compressor in case of high pressure are still performed.
Operation
NOTE
Once a disabled event (set to Warn or to Alarm) becomes active, it will lock itself. Disabled events may be reset only through the menu item Reset Disabled Alarms.
NOTE
The value of the external delay includes the internal delay if it is greater than the internal delay.
The minimum setting of the external delay is the value of the internal delay. This is valid only for values marked with *.

3.8.1 High- and Low-Temperature and Humidity Events
High- and low-temperature and humidity alarms can be set for both the internal and optional exter­nal sensors. If a sensor reading exceeds a preset threshold, a warning will appear. These warnings are ignored after unit startup for a minimum of 1 minute. To increase the delay to warn, see 3.8 - Event Types and Properties. The threshold settings are located in both the User and Service menus under Set Alarms.
To apply threshold limits on the internal cooling unit sensors, the Return Sensor Alarms must be enabled. The high and low temperature and humidity internal sensor thresholds can then be set. To apply threshold limits on the optional external sensors, the Sensor A alarms must be enabled. The high and low temperature and humidity external sensor thresholds can then be set. If no external sensors are connected to the unit, it is recommended that the Sensor A Alarms be disabled.
NOTE
The event messages will automatically reset if the temperature/humidity stays 1.8°F (1°C)/ 2% RH below or above the threshold for one minute.
3.8.2 User Inputs
The user can connect and specify up to four inputs depending on unit configuration. The user inputs are digital inputs that can provide information about an event associated with the unit or space. The customer input configuration settings are in the Service menu under Set Alarms, Screen 2 of 7. The choices for the customer inputs are shown in Table 8 along with their associated reaction. A terminal strip is provided in the cooling unit to connect your contact closure to. You have the ability to set the control to react on an open or closed contact.

3.8.3 Liebert iCOM-DO
The Liebert iCOM-DO is an optional discrete output relay card that can be connected to the Liebert iCOM controls that will provide a dry alarm contact for monitoring systems. The Liebert iCOM-DO is a direct replacement of the Liebert ENV-DO card that was supported on previous Liebert control sys­tems. The Liebert iCOM-DO allows simultaneous use of the Liebert Intellislot cards as the Liebert iCOM-DO communicates over the CAN sensor bus network instead of the iGMNet interface.
A single Liebert iCOM-DO card can be connected to Liebert iCOM, which converts up to 15 configu­rable alarms to a discrete output (relay). The Liebert iCOM-DO setup can be found in the Service, Lie­bert iCOM-DO menu. The Liebert iCOM-DO is pre-configured and will automatically be identified by the Liebert iCOM controller. The default alarm configuration matches the original Liebert ENV-DO card alarm mapping.

3.9 Wellness—Next Maintenance Calculation
The next maintenance calculation, as well as the included diagnostics feature, will help keep the cool­ing unit running at peak performance to ensure minimum component stress and maximum reliabil­ity. The diagnostics will help the service engineer evaluate the unit’s operation since the last maintenance.
38
Page 45
3.9.1 Calculation of Next Maintenance and Diagnostics
If the unit includes any of the following components, they are included in the calculation:
•Fan(s)
• Compressor 1
• Compressor 2
• Electric Heaters
• Humidifier
For each component, the next maintenance will be calculated from the following parameters:
• Standard service interval (1, 2 or 4 times a year) (to be set)
• Working hours (counted)
• Number of starts (counted)
• Average running time (calculated)
• Optimum number of starts per hour (to be set)
• Maximum number of starts per hour (to be set)
• Maximum bonus to enlarge time to next maintenance (to be set)
• Maximum penalty to reduce time to next maintenance (to be set)
Calculating Unit Wellness
Liebert iCOM keeps tabs on the condition of a cooling unit, determining its wellness and projecting when service will be needed, for the entire unit as well as for individual components. This assists in scheduling maintenance calls and helps pinpoint components likely to require service.
Operation
Liebert iCOM displays a graphic for needed maintenance. It begins with the standard maintenance interval—12 months, six months or three months—and adjusts that based on its calculation of compo­nents’ wellness.
To calculate wellness, Liebert iCOM keeps a running total of component working hours and the num­ber of times it has been started. Liebert iCOM relates that data to the optimum/maximum starts per hour. Accordingly, Liebert iCOM will increase or decrease the time before the next service call will be needed.
The more frequently a component starts, the sooner it is likely to need maintenance. If, for example, a unit’s fan runs continuously, but it’s compressor starts and stops often, Liebert iCOM records that and calls for maintenance based on the compressor’s wellness factor.
Alarms and warnings, such as clogged filters or high or low pressure, reduce the time till the next maintenance to zero. If the alarm is cleared and reset, Liebert iCOM recalculates wellness. It begins with the pre-alarm maintenance time and factors in the alarm.
Parameters for Next Maintenance Calculation
General Maintenance Settings
• Maintenance Frequency—can be set as one to 12 months or to zero, which disables mainte­nance calculation
• Max. Bonus—increases the time to next maintenance with the set value, if all components run optimally (number of starts, average running time)
• Max. Penalty value—decreases the time to next maintenance with the set value, if some compo­nents run in non-optimum way (number of starts, average running time)
• Last Maintenance—date can be set from service-engineer; informational
• Service-Engineer—name of the service engineer; editable
• Reset—puts all counters of all components, such as (motor, compressors, heaters and humidifier), at zero and starts a new maintenance calculation (reset to be done after maintenance)

4.0 TEAMWORK
Unit-2-Unit (U2U) communications via a private network will allow the following functions to be placed into operation when the requirement exists. The user must install the correct hardware (see 5.0 - Installing a Liebert iCOM Unit-to-Unit Network) and properly program the units for the selected functionality.
The Liebert iCOM network can perform the following functions:
The Teamwork Mode functions allow for multiple stages of cooling/heating and humidifica­tion/dehumidification. Teamwork Mode can be used to prevent environmental units from “fighting,” where one environmental unit might be cooling while another unit is heating.
The Standby (Lead/Lag) function allows one or more units to be set as “Running” and “Standby” for activation in case of an alarm. This function also allows the units to be programmed in a rotation to help ensure “Standby” unit operation.
The Cascade Operation function allows additional units to be staged-on based on the temperature or humidity requirement.
4.1 Teamwork Modes
Groups of cooling units connected to a network can be set up to work together in any of three team­work modes:
•No Teamwork
• Teamwork Mode 1
• Teamwork Mode 2
Teamwork
All Liebert iCOM-controlled cooling units on a network must be set to run in the same teamwork mode.
4.1.1 Application of Teamwork Modes
• No Teamwork: Multiple zones in one room
• Teamwork Mode 1: Balanced load (small groups of units inside the same environment)
• Teamwork Mode 2: Unbalanced load (large rooms, not all units will have the same load) (work well for most applications)
All units in a network will run in the same Teamwork Mode.
4.1.2 No Teamwork
All cooling units work independently, responding to their own sensors.
Standby function and unit rotation are possible, but cascading is not (see Standby and Cascade on page 43). Autoset will not adjust the proportional band in this mode.
4.1.3 Teamwork Mode 1
Teamwork Mode 1 works best in small rooms with balanced heat loads. The return temperature and humidity sensor readings of all units in operation (fan on) are averaged by the master unit, Unit #1, and used for control. The master unit will send the operating requirements to all operating units according to unit numbers, rotated by one unit every 24 hours.
In this teamwork mode, most of the parameters are shared; if set in any one of the units, all other units will follow with the same settings. AutoSet will adjust the proportional band in Teamwork Mode 1, see 3.2.1 - Temperature Proportional Band.
The master unit evenly divides the system proportional band among the number of available units. Each unit will receive instruction on how to operate from the master unit based on how far the system deviates from the setpoints.

The number of available units is calculated like:
• In non-standby configuration: all units with fan on
• In typical standby function (no cascade): all units with fan on
• In cascade mode: all units that could operate (no alarm, which forces the unit to switch off, unit not switched off, etc.)
NOTE
1. Proportional actuators (chilled water valve, free-cooling actuator) are driven in parallel in all units.
2. Changeover to second cooling source, low limit during dehumidification and low supply limit control air local functions, managed from each unit independently.
Figure 26 shows how two cooling units work together in Teamwork Mode 1. Since Unit 1 and Unit 2 are available to operate, the master unit, Unit 1, averages the temperature and humidity sensor read­ings from each unit.
The master unit determines that a 60% call for cooling is required for the system. Since there are two available cooling units, each unit makes up half of the system proportional band; Unit 1 handles 0­50% system call for cooling and Unit 2 handles 51-100%. For every 1% system call for cooling, each unit provides 2% of its total cooling capacity.
The 60% system call for cooling exceeds the 50% Unit 1 can provide, so Unit 1 operates at full capac­ity. The remaining 10% system call for cooling (60% - 50% = 10%) is handled by Unit 2. Unit 2 responds by operating at 20% cooling capacity (50% ÷ 10% = 20%).
Figure 26 Teamwork Mode 1 with two cooling units
42
Page 49
4.1.4 Teamwork Mode 2
Teamwork Mode 2 is designed to prevent units within a group from working against each other or “fighting.” It is best applied in large rooms with unbalanced heat loads. In Teamwork Mode 2, all parameters are shared equal to Mode 1, and Unit #1 averages all of the available unit sensor readings on the network to define whether there is a cooling, heating, dehumidification or humidification request.
If there is a cooling request, all units are released to start cooling resources according to their own temperature readings; heating is disabled for all units and vice versa. Same for humidity control.
If the network average would ask for 0% proportional band, the most demanding request (highest or lowest temperature of all units, highest or lowest humidity of all units) would be used to define the operation to be performed.
Teamwork Mode 2 does not rotate; unevenly distributed working hours to be expected. Autoset will not adjust the proportional band in this mode.
NOTE
In Teamwork Mode 2, all units must have the same setpoints. The units’ proportional band, deadband and related settings may differ.
4.1.5 Standby—Rotation
Typical Standby (Lead/Lag) Function
Teamwork
This function can be performed in any teamwork mode, including NO Teamwork.
One or more units can be defined to be Standby; the normal status of standby units is Standby Off (fan off).
In case one regular unit has an alarm that is defined (to be defined in the alarm configuration), to switch on a standby unit, the faulty unit will switch off and the standby unit will switch on.
If the next unit has an alarm, the next standby unit will be started. If no more standby units are available, the unit with a non-critical alarm that permits unit operation will be switched on again (water detection, fan alarm, fire alarm etc. will not permit unit restarting).
The standby function can be rotated daily (setting the time), weekly (setting the day of the week and time) or monthly (setting the first weekday of the month and time).
The rotation is performed with a selectable number of units: if 1 is selected, to standby rotates from 1-2 to 2-3 in a 4 units configuration with two standby units, and rotates from 1-2 to 3-4 in the same configuration, when the rotation parameter is set to 2.
NOTE
Before entering standby mode, units will operate the fan only for 3 minutes to cool the electrical heaters, remove steam from the unit, etc.
Standby and Cascade
Cascade is possible in Teamwork Mode 1 only.
Standby units will start if an alarm occurs in one of the operational units. If the standby units are cascaded, they will also start and work with the regular operational units if the temperature or humidity cannot be controlled by the operational units; before a high or low temperature / humidity condition occurs. Cascaded units are switched off again as soon as the temperature / humidity returns back to normal.
The master unit defines its proportional band according to the number of available units (see 4.1.3 - Teamwork Mode 1).
When a standby unit receives a request for full heating or cooling from the master unit (see 3.2.1 -
Temperature Proportional Band), it will respond to the request after its control delay.
NOTE
Cascaded units are not included in the calculation of the average temperature / humidity.

5.0 INSTALLING A LIEBERT ICOM UNIT-TO-UNIT NETWORK
Connecting multiple Liebert iCOM-controlled cooling units in an Ethernet Unit-to-Unit (U2U) net­work enables the units to work together to achieve efficient cooling and humidity control of the condi­tioned space. Networking enables setting up the cooling units to exchange data for various modes of operation:
• Teamwork
• Lead/Lag-Standby
• Rotation
• Cascade
However the cooling units are set up, a large display may be used to control and view the operational status of individual units or of the entire system.
NOTE
The maximum number of cooling units that may be interconnected is 32.
5.1 Placement of Cooling Units
Refer to the cooling unit product manuals for details on installation. Also consider these factors when planning for installation of cooling units with Liebert iCOM controls:
• heat load in the conditioned space
• cooling air distribution
• number of operating units versus number of standby cooling units
• location of the network switch—An Ethernet cable cannot exceed 328 feet (100m)
5.1.1 Balancing Operating and Standby Units
Assign identification to the units in a manner that balances the operating units and standby units according to room layout and heat-load requirements. For example, identify the operating units with numbers 1 through 5 and the standby units 6 through 10. Refer to Figure 27.
Figure 27 Standby unit layout example—10 Precision Cooling units in room
44
Page 51
5.2 U2U Hardware: Cables and Network Switch
Plan wiring runs for U2U communication when designing the layout of your conditioned space. In addition to general good wiring practices, take into account:
• Ethernet CAT5 or greater cable is required for interconnecting the units.
• Maximum distance must not exceed 328 feet (100m).
• A device to boost the Ethernet signal may be used to exceed the 328 feet (100m) length limitation.
• Ethernet network should be private—set up only for management and control of the cooling units.
• Keep control and communication cables away from power cables to prevent electromagnetic inter­ference.
• Do not bend cables to less than four times the diameter of the cable.
• Do not deform cables when securing in bundles or when hanging them.
• Keep cables away from devices that can introduce noise into them, such as machines, fluorescent lights, and electronics.
• Avoid stretching Ethernet cables—tension when pulling cables should not exceed 25 pounds (11kg).
• Do not secure Ethernet cables with any method that might damage them; use approved hangers, such as telephone wire/RG-6 coaxial wire hangers, available at most hardware stores.
Minimum Network Switch Requirements
• IEEE 802.3; IEEE 802.3u
• 10/100 Mbps speed
• Multiple 10/100 RJ-45 ports—one shared; RJ-45 Uplink port

5.3 Wiring for Unit-to-Unit Communications—U2U
Cooling units come from the factory-wired for stand-alone operation.
Liebert iCOM U2U Ethernet Network
The Liebert iCOM U2U network must be isolated from other network traffic. The network switch(es) that connect Liebert iCOM controls need to be dedicated to supporting only Liebert iCOM communi­cation. The U2U network cannot be connected to the building or IT network. If network communica­tion is ever lost (failed network switch, etc.), all Liebert iCOM-controlled cooling units will continue to operate as independent units.
The Liebert iCOM control can support up to 64 nodes on one network. An input/output board, large display, and large wall-mount display are each considered one node. Of the 64 nodes that may be con­nected, no more than 32 may be input/output boards (32 cooling units). A small display is not consid­ered a node. Small displays connect directly to input/output boards that do not have large displays attached to them. The following table illustrates how a network can be configured.

A network switch is required to enable Ethernet communication on one or more cooling units with large displays. Each cooling unit with a large display requires two straight-through Ethernet cables from a network switch. One cable connects to port P64 on the Liebert iCOM input/output board and the other straight-through cable connects to the female-female coupler provided with the unit. Con­nect the red crossover cable, which is provided with the cooling unit, between the coupler and the P64 port on the back of the large display (see Figure 32).
NOTE
Only cooling units with large displays are supplied with a female-female coupler inside the unit from the factory.

Only large displays can be used for remotely monitoring and controlling cooling units connected on the same network. Each wall-mount large display requires 120V input power; Liebert provides an AC adapter wall plug. A straight-through Ethernet cable must be connected between the network switch and the P64 port on the back of the display. This will enable control and monitoring capabilities to any cooling unit connected to the network.
Combining Large and Small Displays on a U2U Network
Setting up a network of cooling units equipped with large and small displays requires a network switch. The controls are to be connected to the switch as described above.

Liebert vNSA
The Liebert vNSA is designed to connect multiple Liebert iCOM control devices. The Liebert vNSA contains either one or two powered industrial rail switches. An optional remote large display can be attached to the front door as well. All models have a power supply that requires connection to a single phase 120V or 240VAC power source. The enclosure features a key lock for security.
The Liebert vNSA supports autonegotiation, autopolarity and autocrossing, allowing for the use of standard network cables for connection to each port, rather than special crossover cables. The switch detects and makes adjustments for the network's speed and transmission mode, polarity and trans­mit-and-receive pins. See the Liebert vNSA user manual, SL-18840, for more details.
The number of ports available for connecting Liebert iCOM control devices varies by model as shown in Table 12. Models with a remote large display attached to the front door utilize one of the available Ethernet ports in the Liebert vNSA. Models with two switches utilize two ports to connect the switches.

6.0 EXTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS—BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, LIEBERT SITESCAN
Liebert iCOM is capable of communicating with external monitoring systems, such as Building Man­agement Systems (BMS), Network Monitoring Systems (NMS), Liebert's SiteScan others.
Each Liebert iCOM-controlled cooling unit is equipped with Liebert IntelliSlot plug-in slots for use with optional communication cards:
• Ethernet Web/SNMP Card
• RS-485 Modbus Card
The hot-swappable plug-in cards provide interfaces supporting open protocols, including Modbus, HTTP (Web) and SNMP. See the Liebert Web site for the latest supported protocols, Modbus refer­ence information and SNMP MIBs.
An alternative, limited method of communicating with an existing Liebert SiteScan Web monitoring system is via twisted-pair cables connected to terminals 77 and 78 on the cooling unit terminal strip. To use this method, the Liebert IntelliSlot power supply connection to P65 on the Liebert iCOM I/O board must be unplugged, and the factory-supplied 77-78 cable must be connected to P65 (follow Lie­bert SiteScan instructions for further connections). The appropriate Liebert iCOM control parameters will also need to be configured to utilize the terminals.

Temperature Setpoint—This parameter selects a temperature that the cooling unit will maintain by applying cooling and or reheats. This parameter is adjustable from 41-104°F (5-40°C), the factory default setting is 73°F (22.7°C).
Service Menu Parameters
Control Type—This parameter selects the type of control the system will use to activate cooling, heating, humidification and dehumidification. A detailed description of each control type can be found in 3.7 - Supply Control.
Temperature Proportional Band—This parameter adjusts the activation points of compressors or rate of change based on the actual sensor values deviation from setpoint. The smaller this number the faster the compressors and valve(s) will increase capacity. Too small of a number may cause the unit to short cycle the compressors or excessively reposition the valve.
Temperature Integration Time—This parameter adjusts the capacity of the unit based on time away from setpoint so that accurate temperature control can be maintained. This parameter is only active when Control Type is set to “PI”.
AutoSet Enable—When this parameter is set to “YES” the temperature and humidity proportional bands will automatically be set based on the type of unit and if teamwork modes are selected. To change the proportional bands this parameter must be set to “NO”.
Temperature Deadband—This parameter can be set to avoid overshooting of the setpoint and cycling between the reheats and cooling. The value entered into this field will be split in half by the temperature setpoint. Example—If the temperature setpoint is 70°F (21.1°C) and a 4°F (2.2°C) dead­band is set, then no cooling will be activated until 72°F (22.2°C) and no heating will be activated until 68°F (20°C) is reached.
Second Setpoint—This parameter will select a temperature setpoint that will be activated in the event of a customer input signal configured as the 2nd Setpoint. The customer input must be config­ured for this parameter to activate. This parameter is adjustable from 41-104°F (5-40°C). The factory default setting is 73°F (22.7°C).
Backup Temperature Setpoint—This parameter will select a temperature setpoint that will be activated in the event of a BMS Timeout. The BMS timer must be configured for this parameter to activate. This parameter is adjustable from 41-104°F (5-40°C). The factory default setting is 73°F (22.7°C).
Heaters Deadband—On HPM units, this parameter changes the amount of deviation below the temperature setpoint that the heaters will cycle On and Off. This parameter value is added to the heating side of the normal temperature deadband.

Humidity Setpoint—This parameter allows the user to select a humidity that the cooling unit will maintain by removing or adding moisture to the air. This parameter is adjustable from 20-80%. The factory default setting from the factory is 50%.
Service Menu Parameters
Humidity Control Type—This parameter selects the humidity control calculation. Setting this parameter to “Relative” will control the humidity without considering any temperature deviations. “Predictive” and “Absolute” control consider the temperature deviation from temperature setpoint so that a constant level of moisture is kept in the area based on the humidity sensor reading and the temperature deviation from setpoint. The factory default setting is “Predictive.”
Humidity Proportional Band—This parameter adjusts the activation points of the humidifier and compressors based on the actual sensor values deviation from setpoint. The smaller this number the faster the compressors and humidifier will increase capacity, too small of a number may cause the unit to short cycle or overshoot setpoint.
Humidity Integration Time—This parameter adjusts the capacity of the unit based on time away from setpoint so that accurate humidity control can be maintained. This parameter is only active when Control Type is set to “PI.”
Humidity Deadband—This parameter can be set to avoid overshooting of the setpoint and cycling between humidification and dehumidification. The value entered into this field will be split in half by the temperature setpoint. Example: If the humidity setpoint is 50% and a 4% deadband is set then no humidity control will be activated between 48% and 52%.
Dehum/Heat Low Limit 1—This parameter sets the temperature at which 1 of 2 compressors will be deactivated for dehumidification control. Unit must be set for 2 compressor dehumidification for this value to be settable. Example—If low limit 1 is set to 4°F (2.2°C) and the temperature setpoint is 70°F (21.1°C) then one of the 2 compressors will turn off at 66°F (18.8°C).
Dehum/Heat Low Limit 2—This parameter sets the temperature at which all dehumidification is stopped. Example—If low limit 2 is set to 8°F (4.4°C) and the temperature setpoint is 70°F (21.1°C) then all dehumidification will be deactivated at 62°F (16.6°C).

Supply Sensor—This parameter selects how the supply sensor will be used by the control. The selec­tions for this parameter are Disabled, Cooling Only, Control and Limit. See 3.8 - Event Types and Properties for a detailed description. The supply sensor can only be set to Cooling Only and Control on chilled water units. The chilled water unit must have the valve feedback if the valve type is a 3P valve (stem). Motorized ball valves do not require the feedback feature.
Supply Setpoint—This parameter sets the temperature setpoint for the supply sensor when it is set to Cooling Only, Control or Limit.
Supply Control Type—This parameter selects the type of control the system will use to activate cooling. A detailed description of each control type can be found in 3.7 - Supply Control.
Supply Proportional Band—When the supply sensor is set to Cooling Only or Control then this parameter adjusts the valves rate of change based on the actual sensor values deviation from set­point. The smaller this number the faster the valve(s) will increase cooling capacity. Too small of a number may cause the unit to excessively reposition the valve.
Supply Integration—This parameter adjusts the capacity of the unit based on time away from set­point so that accurate temperature control can be maintained. This parameter is only active when Control Type is set to “PI.”
Supply Deadband—This parameter can be set to avoid overshooting of the setpoint and cycling between the reheats and cooling. The value entered into this field will be split in half by the tempera­ture setpoint. Example: If the temperature setpoint is 60°F (15.5°C) and a 4°F (2.2°C) deadband is set then no cooling will be activated until 62°F (16.6°C) and no heating will be activated until 58°F (14.4°C) is reached.
Valve Pulse—This parameter defines the minimum change in the cooling requirement before the valve will reposition. A greater number decreases the amount of repositions and a smaller number will increase the response of the valve.
Cooling Filter at 0% / 100%—This parameter filters the controls reaction in order to avoid over­shoots. The filter value depends on the current control deviation. On setpoint (at 0%), it’s typically set lower (slow), and at the end of the p-band (at 100%), it’s typically set higher (faster). The value is given in % control output change per second.
Return Compensation—for supply control only. This parameter defines the maximum increase allowed to the supply temperature setting to maintain a return temperature setpoint. When the return air temperature is above its setpoint and p-band, the supply air setpoint remains unchanged. As the return air temperature approaches the setpoint, the supply air setpoint will be proportionally increased to maintain the return temperature setpoint. The maximum increase is defined with the return compensation parameter.

Service Menu Parameters
DT between Room Air / Outdoor—This feature is only used on HPM products.
DT between Room / FC Type—This parameter determines the method to activate the water circuit
on Dual Cool and Freecool units. When set to “Contact” a dry contact closure can be used to activate the free cooling circuit. When set to “Value” the delta between the water temperature of the freecool circuit and the actual room temperature are compared.
DT between Room Air / FC Fluid—This parameter sets the delta between the actual room temper­ature and the free cooling fluid temperature to determine if cooling can be provided.
Minimum CW Temp—This parameter enables the temperature at which freecooling can operate independently without assistance of the compressor circuit.
Minimum CW Temp Value—This parameter sets the water temperature at which 100% freecooling can be provided to handle the full room load. When the fluid temperature is below this setting then the compressors will no longer turn on until the water temperature is above the minimum CW Temp.
Lockout FC at FC Fluid below—This parameter is the temperature that turns off the freecooling circuit when the water temperature is too low. This setting prevents frost from building up on the freecooling pipes when the outdoor ambient is extremely low.
Transition Change—This parameter is applied over the “Cooling Filter at 0% / 100%” when the cooling signal goes to / comes from dehumidification. This will smooth the cooling capacity changes between dehumidification and cooling.

VSD Fanspeed—This parameter sets the control type for a variable fanspeed device which includes Variable Frequency Drives and EC Fans. Selection options are Auto, Manual, Economy and Delta control. See section 3.1.1 for details of each control.
Service Menu Parameters
VSD Setpoint STD—When VSD Fanspeed parameter is set to Auto, Economy or Delta control then this parameter is the high limit for the fan speed output. If VSD Fanspeed is set to Manual then this parameter is the actual running speed of the fan.
VSD Setpoint MIN—This parameter is the minimum speed that the fan will operate. Fan speed is modulated between the “VSD Setpoint MIN” and “VSD Setpoint STD”.
VSD Setpoint Dehum—This parameter sets the fixed fan speed the fan will operate at when there is a call for dehumidification. The factory default setting is 60% which helps to keep the coil in a latent or dehumidification mode.
VSD Setpoint No Power—This parameter sets the fan speed when a Customer Input set to “No Power” is activated.
Fanspeed Change at 0% / 100%—This parameter filters the control’s reaction in order to avoid overshoots. The filter value depends on the current control deviation. On setpoint (at 0%), it’s typi­cally set lower (slow), and at the end of the p-band (at 100%), it’s typically set higher (faster). The value is given in % control output change per second.
Fanspeed Reposition Delay—This parameter sets the reposition delay that is applied only for changes to decrease fanspeed; increases in fanspeed are controlled only by the fanspeed change speed filter. After fanspeed is increased, the timer will prevent the speed from being reduced for the delay duration.
Fanspeed Delta—This parameter sets the temperature delta between the two Cold Aisle Contain­ment sensors. This delta is maintained to ensure that there is sufficient airflow inside of the contain­ment area.
Fanspeed P-Band—This parameter adjusts the fans rate of change based on the actual sensor val­ues deviation from setpoint or the delta. The smaller this number the faster the fan will increase its speed. Too small of a number may cause the fans to excessively reposition.
Fanspeed Integration—This parameter adjusts the fanspeed of the unit based on time away from setpoint. This parameter is only active when Control Type is set to “PI.”

Compressor Sequence—This parameter changes the lead compressor when cooling is activated. This parameter can also be set to “AUTO” mode which will activate the compressor with the lowest run hours first.
Service Menu Parameters
Low Pressure Alarm Delay—This parameter sets the amount of time that the unit will ignore a low pressure condition. In the past this parameter has also been referred to as a Winter Start Time. This parameter can be set between 0 to 5 minutes.
Electric Stages—This parameter shows the number of electric stages that can be activated during a call for reheat. This parameter is setup from the factory based on the model number of the unit.
Electrical Heater Capacity—(HPM only) This parameter shows the electrical heater capacity for units with both electric and hot water or hot gas reheat. Reduced capacity indicates HW/HG Stage 1, electric Stage 2; full capacity indicates HW/HG plus low capacity electric Stage 1, high capacity elec­tric Stage 2.
Hot Water Heat On/Off—This parameter is selectable between “Yes and No”. If Yes is selected the unit is equipped with a hot water heater.
LWD Connected—This parameter is set to “Yes” if a liquid detection device is connected to the Lie­bert iCOM control.
Valve Control—This parameter selects between two different methods to keep track of valve posi­tion when a stem / 3P valve is installed in the unit. This setting does not affect motorized ball valves. If “Time” is selected then the valve position is tracked by an internal timer in the control to determine the position or opening of the valve. If “Feedback” is selected then analog input #1 interprets the sig­nal from the valve to determine its position. Using the “Feedback” setting requires the setup proce-
dure discussed earlier in this manual.
3P Actuator Runtime—If Valve Control is selected for “Time” then this parameter sets the travel time of the valve to determine the full open and closed position of the valve. This setting is set from the factory based on the valves manufacturer specifications.
3P Actuator Direction—This parameter selects if the valve is a “Direct” or “Reverse” acting valve.

Humidification Enabled—This parameter enables or disables humidification.
Service Menu Parameters
Infrared Flush Rate—This parameter shows the amount of makeup water supplied to an infrared humidifier as a percentage of the humidifier capacity. This value can be set from 110-500% (default is 150%). Higher flush rates reduce mineral deposit buildup in the humidifier pan.
Humidifier Steam Rate—(HPM and PEX only) On units with variable capacity steam bottle humidifiers, this parameter allows the humidifier capacity to be reduced as a percentage of nominal humidifier capacity.
Humidifier Control—This parameter is used for HPM and PEX units only.
Humidifier Bottle Flush Time—This parameter is used for HPM and PEX units only.
Humidifier Bottle Manual Flush—This parameter is used for HPM and PEX units only.
Dehumidification Enabled—This parameters selects if the compressor and / or valve will be used
to dehumidify when the humidity is above setpoint.
Auto Restart Enabled—This parameter when set to “Yes” restarts the unit after a power cycle. When this parameter is set to “No” then the unit will not restart (Turn On) after a power cycle.
Single Unit Auto Restart—This parameter sets a time delay for the unit to restart when the Auto Restart Enabled is set to “Yes”. The delay begins once the boot process has completed. This parameter allows units to be staggered On to reduce the amount of simultaneous power consumption after a loss of power.
On-Off Enabled—This parameter disables the power button on the front of the display. The default
configuration is “On”.

CW Flush—This parameter selects how many hours between each chill water coil flush cycle. The default is every 24 hours. Reducing this number will increase the number of coil flushes.
Service Menu Parameters
Freecooling Flush—This parameter selects how many hours between each freecooling coil flush cycle. The default is every 24 hours. Reducing this number will increase the number of coil flushes.
Hot Water Flush—This parameter selects how many hours between each hotl water coil flush cycle. The default is every 24 hours. Reducing this number will increase the number of coil flushes.
Ball Valve Setpoint Offset—The parameter adjusts the operating compressor discharge pressure by changing the targeted range of control.
Heaters Outputs as—(HPM only) On units with no heaters, this parameter allows the heater digital output to be activated based on the selected event.
CW Valve Control—For units equipped with dual motorized ball valves this parameter allows the valves to be set to operate in parallel, alternate or cascade. Parallel is the default selection and oper­ates the valves at the same opening based on the call for cooling.
Main Valve—If CW Valve Control is set for “Alternate or Cascade” then this parameter selects which valve is the lead valve.
Auto Valve Rotation—If CW Valve Control is set for “Alternate or Cascade” then this parameter allows the valves to be rotated based on the Valve Rotation Hour.
Valve Rotation Hour—If Auto Valve Rotation is enabled then this parameter determines the time between the valve rotations.
Dehum Operation—For units equipped with dual motorized ball valves this parameter selects the dehumidification operation of the valves.
