Supervisor or when the currently active preferred language does not have a translation for a given label, prompt, or
display text.

Date: The Date format can be set to either Day, Month, and full Year (D-M-YR) or Month-Day and full Year (M-D-YR)
format. The day, month, and year values are separated by either a forward slash or a dash line depending on user selection.
The Date Format can be changed based on user preference and saved to user profiles. On initial Supervisor startup, the
Date format defaults to the format of the language selected. For example, en-US will default to D-M-YR and all others
will default to M-D-YR.

Time: The Time format can be set to either a 12-hour (12-hr) format or 24-hour (24-hr) format. The hour, minute, and
second values are separated by either a colon or a period depending on user selection.The Time format can be changed
based on user preference and saved to user profiles. On initial Supervisor startup, the Time format defaults to the format of
the language selected. Date and Time delimiters default to forward slashes and colons.

Engineering Units: The default engineering units are based on the assigned units for the chosen preferred language.
Users can choose or change their preferred set of engineering units and save them to their user profiles. The default
engineering units are based on the International System of Units (SI System) format.

2.6.1 Performance Meter

Performance Meter gives the user a quick and simple
visual indication of system performance and early insight
that provides an opportunity to take corrective actions to
remedy conditions that may be reducing energy efficiency,
causing required service or ultimately leading to costly
failures. Performance Meter is a licensed application that
looks at the operational performance in relation to a
desired setpoint and calculates a “Figure of Merit” (FOM),
which takes into account deviations above and below
setpoints, but excluding defrosts. The overall FOM value
uses both high-temperature conditions that result in
product degradation as well as low-temperature

Figure 2-7 - Performance Meter Tab

2.6.2 Site Aggregation

Site Aggregation brings together status and data from
multiple controllers into one convenient view. You can
drag and drop the summary information into the order that
is most important to you. This can be your preferred view
when you log in with your user name. You can also create
custom categories, and drag and drop Summary Tiles into
categories and in the order you prefer. Categories appear
collapsed by default on the System Summary screen. (This
feature is supported by all models and not limited to
having a Site Aggregator license.)

To create a new custom category, click Edit on the
upper-right corner of the screen, then click the plus sign
that appears opposite the application name. An open box

3.7 Peer Alarming

Peer Alarming enables both the E2 and the Supervisory Controller to transmit the alarms to the alarm annunciator
controller in a peer group. The general operations for the integrated alarms can then be handled in one controller making it
more convenient for users to manage and deal with all the alarms in only one annunciator in one peer group. For more
information about Peer to Peer setup, go to Appendix E: Peer to Peer Network Setup for Mixed Sites (Two Supervi-
sors and One E2).

3.8 Generic Alarms

Generic Alarms enable users to custom-assign alarms in the controller for any analog or digital output and allows users to
set custom high-low alarm setpoints for both occupied and unoccupied building states. Up to 10 generic alarms can be
created for each application. Each alarm is configurable with options of Disabled, Notice, Non-Critical, or Critical. For
each alarm the standard Advisory parameters are also available. Generic Alarms must first be enabled in the General
System Properties -> System Values tab. To set up Generic Alarming in any application, go to the application’s Generic
Alarms tab. To add a Generic Alarm, select an output from the drop-down list and then click + Add Generic Alarm. Each
added alarm will be named Generic Alarm, enumerated from 1-10, and followed by the name of the output to which it is
assigned. Each alarm’s parameters will be hidden beneath the first row. Click the chevron to access all the alarm
parameters. The alarm will be generated when the value of the output exceeds the setpoint after the programmed alarm
delay is satisfied. Removing a Generic Alarm can be accomplished by clicking the X at the end of its first row.

Overview

4.2 Technical Specifications

Site Supervisor is a Supervisory Controller system that
combines energy management with the ability to monitor
various facility systems and provide alerts when there are
issues that need attention. This system provides HVAC
control, Refrigeration System Monitoring and Control, as
well as Lighting Control. In addition, the Supervisory
Controller can monitor and report energy consumption and
take action to reduce the energy demand during peak
periods. This can have a direct impact on utility bills by
reducing total energy costs. Supervisory Controllers
ensure that the HVAC and lighting systems are on and off
at the appropriate times. This ability to monitor store
conditions can potentially minimize energy consumption.

4.6.5 Dip Switch Termination and Biasing

Figure 4-9

The termination and biasing dip switches are located to the left of their respective communications port connectors. The
switches are oriented such that switch down is ON for the function. The dip switches are of the “piano key” type and must
be moved up and down when they are viewed as shown above.

The termination dip switch must be ON (down) when the Site Supervisor is the first or last device on the RS485
network, most easily recognized by having only 1 Belden style cable attached to the connector.

What is biasing?

The transmission line into the RS-485 serial port enters an indeterminate state when it is not being transmitted to. This
indeterminate state can cause the receivers to receive invalid data bits from the noise picked up on the cable.* To prevent
this, set the bias dip switch to ON (down) which will add the appropriate amount of resistance.

*Source: National Instruments Serial Troubleshooting Wizard

or panel (if installed) so that ample light and line of sight can be obtained during this procedure. An example of a
broken dip switch can be seen below.

- Dip Switch Configuration

NOTE: The switches are somewhat fragile and care should be taken when switching them from ON to OFF
or vice versa. It is also likely that a small control screwdriver needs to be used because of space and clearance
between the COM port connectors, and you must ensure that power to the controller is secured prior to
changing the switch position(s). It is highly recommended that the controller be removed from its enclosure

5 RS485 I/O

Network Boards
and Peripherals

Site Supervisor has up to two RS485 network ports, each
of which may be configured as an I/O network or
MODBUS port.

5.1 The I/O Network

Most of the general purpose input and output
communications devices required by the Supervisory
Controller to control refrigeration systems are connected
via the I/O Network. The I/O Network is a simple RS485
three-wire connection that allows data interchange
between input boards, which read sensor values and digital
closures, output boards, which carry out commands from
Supervisory Controller applications, and the Supervisory
Controller itself. All boards and controllers manufactured
by Emerson for communication with the Supervisory
Controller via RS485 are generally referred to as I/O
boards, and the network they are connected to is referred
to as the I/O Network (or I/O Net).

A COM port configured as I/O Net may connect with up
to 127 I/O boards. This network is used by the Supervisory
Controller to read data from the input boards and to send
commands to the analog and digital output boards. Some
unit controllers, such as CCB case controllers and
MultiFlex RCBs, also communicate with the Supervisory
Controller via the I/O Network.

5.2 I/O Board Names and

Terminology

There are many input, relay output, analog output, and
combination I/O boards available from Emerson for use
with the Supervisory Controller. However, separate from
the various MultiFlex unit controller models, the
Supervisory Controller only recognizes four different
types of I/O boards: 16AI, 8RO, 4AO, and 8DO. All Site
Supervisor-compatible I/O boards communicate with the
Site Supervisor as if they are one or more of these types of
boards.

5.2.1 MultiFlex Boards

The MultiFlex line of control system boards provides a
wide variety of input, output, and smart control solutions,

all of which are based on a single universal hardware
platform. The board design uses flash-uploadable
firmware and plug-in expansion boards to configure the
base platform board and apply it for use as an input board,
relay output board, analog output board, or a combination
I/O board.

5.2.1.1 MultiFlex 16 Input Board

Figure 5-1

The MultiFlex 16 input board offers sixteen combination
analog/digital input points for use by Emerson Site
Supervisor, Einstein, and REFLECS control systems. The
MultiFlex 16 may be used in retrofits with no additional
hardware or software setup or upgrades.

The MultiFlex 16 is designed to be 100% compatible with
the previous generation of Emerson input boards (the

16AI),
RS485 connection to a REFLECS COM A&D Network or
a Site Supervisor I/O Network. Dip switches on the board
set the network ID (board number) and baud rate.

The board also provides both +5VDC and +12VDC output
voltage points for use in powering transducers or other
input devices that require power.

The MultiFlex 16 has a Hand-held Terminal interface
Section 5.2.8, Hand-held Terminal (P/N 814-3110) that
may be used by technicians to view the input voltage and
engineering unit values for each input point without need
of a voltmeter or front panel controller display.

Table 5-1 shows the part number of the MultiFlex 16.

There are several models of the MultiFlex board that
combine the functionalities of input boards, relay output
boards, digital output boards, and analog output boards.
The MultiFlex combination input/output boards are
designed to be replacements for the 8IO Combination
Input/Output Board, but the MultiFlex board provides
several new hardware options and software features.

The MultiFlex combination I/O boards consist of up to 16
combination digital/analog inputs, and a combination of
relay outputs, digital outputs, and analog outputs.

All boards feature both +5VDC and +12VDC output
voltage points for use in powering transducers or other
input devices that require power.

5-2 • Supervisory Controller 2.13 Installation and Operation Manual 026-1800 Rev 18

On the RS485 Network, the MultiFlex combination input/
output boards present themselves to site controllers as
16AI Analog Input Boards, 8RO Relay Output Boards,
8DO Digital Output Boards, and/or 4AO Analog Output
Boards, depending on what type of inputs or outputs are
equipped. Dip switches are used to assign network ID
numbers to each board type.

The MultiFlex combination input/output boards also
support a Hand-held Terminal interface, Section 5.2.8,
Hand-held Terminal (P/N 814-3110) which allows
technicians to view input values, check relay and analog
output states, and override output points with fixed digital
or analog values. For more information on MultiFlex I/O
boards, refer to the MultiFlex I/O Board Installation and
Operation Manual (P/N 026-1704).

5.2.5 MultiFlex RTU

Similar in design to the MultiFlex combination input/
output boards, the MultiFlex RTU board is designed
specifically for operating package rooftop HVAC units as
part of a Supervisory Controller or REFLECS BCU
building control system. The MultiFlex RTU is designed
to be a replacement for the previous generation ARTC,
and is 100% compatible with all legacy Supervisory
Controller and BCU systems.

The MultiFlex RTU board has 16 analog inputs, 8 relay
outputs and 4 analog outputs. Most of these I/O points are
reserved for sensors and input devices required to read
environmental data (such as space and supply air
temperature) and control all output devices that control the
environment (such as heat/cool stages and dampers). Both
auxiliary inputs can be configured for a variety of sensor
types including any type of linear sensor. For linear
sensors, the auxiliary inputs can be configured as
Satellites. By doing this, the minimum and maximum
voltage and minimum and maximum Engineering Unit
parameters are user configurable for these inputs.
The RTU relay outputs are rated for line voltage
(240VAC).

The RTU board controls the rooftop unit directly with its
built-in heating, cooling, and humidity control algorithms.
It may operate in stand-alone mode, or it may interface
with a Supervisory Controller or BCU to control the store
environment in zones and pass along logging and alarm
information.

The MultiFlex RTU has its own installation and operation

manual, (P/N 026-1705).

5.2.6 MultiFlex Rooftop Control Board (RCB)

The MultiFlex Rooftop Control Board (RCB)
(P/N 810-3062) is a rooftop HVAC control board for use
either as a stand-alone controller or in zone control
applications using an Emerson Supervisory Controller
building control system. The MultiFlex RCB is capable of
controlling heat and cool stages, fans, humidification and
dehumidification devices, economizers using on-board I/O
and control algorithms, as well as monitor and interact
with other building control systems and peripherals (such
as smoke alarms and CO2 sensors).

The RCB is an improved version of the MultiFlex RTU.
The RCB has sixteen fully configurable analog and digital
input points, whereas the RTU has only eight inputs, two
of which are configurable. The RCB has four analog
outputs for use in controlling variable speed fans,
economizers or modulating heating and/or cooling valves,
whereas the RTU has only two analog outputs for use only

by the controller from the input boards is checked against
current stored setpoints. If differences in the received
input data and the setpoint information are detected, a
signal is either sent to the proper 8RO relay, or an existing
signal is discontinued. Through the use of this relay signal,
control functions that can be properly maintained by a
simple contact closure sequence are effectively operated

5.2.9 The 8RO and 8ROSMT Relay Boards

The 8RO (P/N 810-3005) board is a general-purpose
board used to connect a Supervisory Controller to any of
eight standard control relay outputs, but is now obsolete
and has been replaced by the 8ROSMT (P/N 810-3006)
board.

To function, the 8RO board must be connected through
either the Echelon Network or the RS485 I/O Network to
the Supervisory Controller. When properly installed, the
8RO receives an electrical impulse from the Supervisory
Controller, which either opens or closes any of eight
contact relays. Output definitions within the Supervisory
Controller allow the user to configure the 8RO board to
interact with any refrigeration system or environmental
control component.

The 8RO board is the direct link between the supervisory

5.2.14 Wireless I/O

Emerson’s Wireless Module System provides
refrigerated case temperature monitoring and control for
certain applications without the time and expense required
to wire multiple temperature sensors from the case back to
the Supervisory Controller. All modules in the Emerson
Wireless Module System family are wireless, transmitting
their values to Gateways in the store area that pass them
back to the Supervisory Controller. There can be multiple
Gateways at a site. The interface to the supervisory
controller determines the number of individual modules
that are supported (MODBUS or I/O Net). The
recommended number of modules is less than 200 within a
100-foot radius.

• Running MODBUS: supports a maximum of 297

individual modules.

• Running I/O Net: supports a maximum of 356

individual modules.

The wireless module has three inputs where temp
sensors can be connected. The module transmits to the
gateway, which is connected to the Supervisory Controller
via I/O net. The Gateway communicates to the
Supervisory Controller over the I/O network. During
commissioning and installation, the hand-held (HHT)
must be used to address each wireless node. The address
appears as an I/O point just like a 16AI MultiFlex board
(address 1-16). If there are more than 16 modules, the
other 16AI board application must be set up to address the
next 16 modules. The HHT is also needed in order to make
any changes.

5.2.17 Control Techniques Drive (VSD)

Using the MODBUS network type, supervisory
controllers can communicate with the Control Techniques
variable-speed drive (VSD). There are three different VSD
models the Supervisory Controller communicates with:
Commander SE, Commander SK, and Unidrive SP drive
types.

Note that all CT drives are 2 stop bits, with no parity.
Since ECT MODBUS specifies 1 stop bit, CT drives will
configure the General Services setting for stop bits and
always communicate with the drives using 2 stop bits. The
Supervisory Controller calculates the difference and
adjusts for the additional stop bit.

Configure the COM port the CT drive will connect to by
pressing Alt + M to open the serial configuration
manager.

Set the COM port to MODBUS and the baud rate (match
the baud rate on the CT drive).

8.1 Emerson Supervisory Control Application and

System Capacity Matrix

Customers are cautioned that the figures in each cell of the following tables may only be interpreted as a general
rule-of-thumb number. Values, where appearing in any cell, are intended to represent the designated maximum number for
particular application types (as shown in rows) for each Supervisory Controller model/series (as shown in columns), but
independent of other application types. In other words, these figures are not indicative of the maximum number of
combined applications that can be read by a single Supervisory Controller.

The Supervisory Controller is designed (and required) to handle a combination of multiple applications at the same
time. The extent of such combinations that can be added to each Supervisory Controller should only be determined by a
qualified Emerson support specialist and will be governed by customized store requirements. In general, just as with
computers, each additional input/memory requirement imposed on the Supervisory Controller would reduce the memory
available for other applications.

8.7 Suction Groups

8.7.1 Introduction

The Supervisory Controller RX refrigeration controller
uses suction group applications to cycle compressors in an
effort to maintain a constant suction pressure or
temperature in a refrigeration system. A suction group
may contain up to 16 compressor stages (standard,
variable-speed, or unloader).

There are two different types of suction group
applications:

• Suction Group - The “standard” suction group
application that has existed since the first version of
the Supervisory Controller firmware. The Suction
Group uses PID Control and with proper
optimization it can achieve very tight suction
pressure or temperature control, but compressor
cycling is not based on load analysis and can be
inefficient, especially in larger racks. All versions
of Supervisory Controller support the standard
Suction Group application.

• Enhanced Suction Group - Introduced in Site
Supervisor version 2.30F01, the Enhanced Suction
Group has all of the important features of the older
Suction Group application, but instead of
employing user-configured PID constants to
optimize operation, the Enhanced Suction Group
determines optimum control by “learning” the
effect each compressor and circuit load has on the
suction input. The Enhanced Suction Group is
easier to configure and more conservative with
compressor cycling than the standard Suction
Group. In addition, the Enhanced Suction Group
also supports use of the Copeland Digital Scroll and
Copeland Digital Discus compressors.

8.7.2 The (Standard) Suction Group Application

8.7.2.1 Overview of PID Control Strategy

A Suction Group application looks at suction pressure or
suction temperature to determine how many compressor
stages should be ON or OFF. The application compares
the suction pressure or temperature to its control setpoint
using PID control. The result of this comparison is a
percentage from 0% to 100% that corresponds to the total
capacity of the compressor rack that should be active.

The Suction Group application then takes that percentage
and determines what combination of compressors should
be switched ON or OFF to best fulfill the requirement. For
example, if the application says that 60% of the total

compressor rack’s power should be active, and the rack
has compressors totaling 50 HP, then the supervisory
controller will try to switch on compressors totaling 30
HP.

8.7.2.2 Variable-Speed Compressors

Suction Group applications are compatible with variable­speed compressors. VS compressors allow Suction Group
applications to “fine-tune” the amount of total active rack
horsepower to react to small changes in suction pressures
or temperatures. As a result, the rack does a better job of
controlling suction, requiring less compressor switches.

When a variable-speed compressor is present, it will
generally be treated as the primary pressure controlling
device, and any other standard compressors in the rack are
secondary devices used only if the VS compressor is
unable to fully handle the required horsepower. The
variable-speed compressor will be the first compressor on
and the last compressor off.

8.7.2.3 Floating Setpoint Control

The Floating Setpoint strategy within the supervisory
controller RX provides a method for varying the suction
setpoint of the group based on the temperature within a
circuit. When Floating Setpoint Control is enabled, the
Supervisory Controller RX monitors either a circuit
temperature or a case temperature from a CC-100 and
adjusts the suction setpoint if the temperature is too low or
too high.

The user establishes a range outside of which the
Supervisory Controller RX is instructed to make a one PSI
adjustment to the suction pressure setpoint to either reduce
or increase the case temperature. If the temperature
continues to remain outside of the range for a user-defined
period of time, the Supervisory Controller RX continues to
make pressure setpoint adjustments until the temperature
is within the established range.

By varying the suction pressure setpoint to match the
temperature requirements of the circuit, the Supervisory
Controller RX is able to ensure product integrity while
achieving maximum rack efficiency.

8.7.3 The Enhanced Suction

Group Application

A Suction Group application looks at suction pressure or
suction temperature and compares it to the suction setpoint
to determine whether compressor stages should be cycled
ON or OFF. Unlike the Suction Group application, which
uses a PID percentage to determine how many stages to
turn ON or OFF, the Enhanced Suction Group keeps
historical data of the effects each compressor stage has on
the suction pressure or temperature, and analyzes that data
to determine which stages to cycle.

8-12 • Supervisory Controller 2.13 Installation and Operation Manual 026-1800 Rev 18

The Enhanced Suction Group application is designed to
balance tight control of suction pressure with economic
management of compressor cycling to reduce power usage
and compressor wear.

8.7.3.1 Learning Mode

When an Enhanced Suction Group application runs for the
first time, it undergoes a “Learning Mode” period to
collect data on the compressor stages. During Learning
Mode, the Enhanced Suction Group will control suction
pressure, but it will purposely cycle the compressor stages
in different combinations to measure the effect they have
on the suction input value.

The Learning Mode lasts for several minutes. After
Learning Mode ends, the Enhanced Suction Group will
require up to 24 hours of operation before compressor
cycling is operating at maximum efficiency. If compressor
cycling seems too frequent after 24 hours of operation,
you may reduce compressor cycling by changing the
Control/Cycles parameter (see Section 8.7.3.3, The Con-
trol/Cycles Parameter).

8.7.3.2 Circuit Load Analysis

Unlike the standard Suction Group algorithm, the
Enhanced Suction Group includes Circuit Setup where
you associate all circuits connected to the suction group.
Once the circuits are set up, the suction group will use the
circuit states to help determine current loads on the suction
group. For example, when one or more circuits go into
defrost, the Enhanced Suction Group determines that there
is less of a load on the suction group than if all circuits
were in refrigeration. With the appropriate circuits
associated, the Enhanced Suction Group tailors
capacity to meet the load. Over time, the Enhanced
Suction Group will build and store a profile
different combinations of circuit states encountered in the
algorithm.

its

for all the

8.7.3.3 The Control/Cycles Parameter

Unlike the standard Suction Group, which used PID
constants as a means of optimizing suction control and had
limited features for controlling compressor cycle counts,
the Enhanced Suction Group has one parameter with five
preset settings to allow users to alter suction control
performance or compressor cycling frequency.

The default setting, “Moderate Control,” seeks to balance
good suction pressure control with efficient cycling. If
tighter control is needed, setting the field to “Tight
Control” or “Tightest Control” will increase the
application’s reaction to suction changes, resulting in
tighter control (usually at the expense of more frequent
cycling). If fewer compressor cycles are desired, setting
the field to “Less Cycling” or “Least Cycling” will
decrease the number of cycles but also increase the

amount of fluctuation in the suction pressure.

8.7.3.4 Variable-Speed, Digital Scroll, and Digital Discus Compressor Support

The Enhanced Suction Group supports variable-speed
compressors similar to the Suction Group application.
When a variable-speed compressor is present, it is the first
compressor stage ON and the last stage OFF, and its
capacity is varied to attempt to correct small fluctuations
in the suction pressure or temperature.

In addition, the Enhanced Suction Group application
supports use of one or multiple Copeland Digital Scroll or
Digital Discus compressors for use as a variable-capacity
compressor. With several Digital Scroll or Digital Discus
compressors, the Enhanced Suction Group will modulate
one of those compressors at a time to control suction
pressure. As compressor capacity is added or removed, the
Enhanced Suction Group may modulate another Digital
Scroll compressor to distribute compressor resources and
solenoid wear.

The operating capacities of the Copeland Digital Scroll
and Copeland Digital Discus compressors are determined
in the same way as a variable-speed compressor, except
the Copeland Digital Scroll and Copeland Digital Discus
controlled by pulse-width modulation (PWM).

8.7.3.5 Floating Suction Control

Floating suction control in the Enhanced Suction Group
behaves identically to the way it works in the Suction
Group application. Refer to Section 8.7.2.3, Floating Set-
point Control.

8.7.4 Hardware Overview

An overview of the input and output devices that make up
a Suction Group is shown in Figure 8-2. These devices
should be wired to input and output boards in the manner

The Analog Sensor Control reads the values from one or
more analog sensors, compares them to a set of Cut In/Cut
Out setpoints, and operates a digital output (such as a

generated based on the combined value of the
inputs and its relation to a set of high and low alarm
and notice setpoints.

relay) based on the analog input in relation to the
setpoints.

An Analog Sensor Control module performs three
functions:

• COMBINER - Up to four analog inputs are
combined into a single analog value.

• CUT IN/CUT OUT CONTROL - The combined
input value is compared to a Cut In/Cut Out
setpoint. Based on this comparison, a digital output

8.8.1 Control Strategy

The application combines multiple analog inputs into a
single output, using either the primary combination
method or the alternate combination mode, depending on
the state of the Use Alternate Combination property.

The primary and alternate combination methods may be

configured to be one of the following:

• Average - of all defined inputs

8-14 • Supervisory Controller 2.13 Installation and Operation Manual 026-1800 Rev 18

• Minimum value

• Maximum value

• First - first input value that is not NONE

• Mix of first two inputs (using mix ratio property)

• Span - difference between the highest and lowest
input values (multiple inputs)

• Select - single value chosen by the input select (if
input select is 5, use in5)

• Sum - sum all inputs

• (in1 + in2) + in3

• (in1 - in2) - in3

• (in1 * in2) * in3

• (in1 + in2) / in3

• (in1 * in2) + in3

• (in1 - in2) * in3F

• |in1 - in2| / in3

• |in1 - in2| * in3

• sqr(|in1 - in2|) * in3

The combined values can be filtered. The filter’s primary
function is to slow the rate of change of the combined
input. The difference between the current input value and
the input's value x seconds ago, where x = Factor Time, is
multiplied by the filter ratio to produce the filter output.

The filtered output is run through a CutIn / CutOut calg
that trips a digital output (Command Out) based on the
CutIn / CutOut setpoints.

There is also a counter on the Command Out that provides
a running count that increase every time the Command
Out cycles to ON and a digital Counter Trip Output that is
ON when the Counter value is greater than the Counter's
trip point. The user enters the initial value and the count
increases by the Count Inc value. The Count output value
is reset by sending a signal to the Reset Count input. The
Count Reset Type parameter specifies whether the Count
is reset based on the logic level, the rising edge or the
falling edge. The counter increase based on the digital
output after the bypass block.

The PRI DEMAND SHED and SEC DEMAND SHED
inputs provide a way to have the cell shut down in demand
shed situations. If the PRI DEMAND SHED is ON, the
Cut In/Cut Out setpoints is bumped by the amount set in
the Pri Demand Bump parameter. Likewise, for the SEC
DEMAND SHED except the primary demand shed has
priority if they are both ON. The Stpt Bump Rst Int
indicates the amount of time over which the setpoint is
ramped back to normal.

8.8.2 Control Alarming

There is a high and low limit alarm and notice for the
inputs after they are combined and filtered. The user sets
occupied and unoccupied, high and low setpoints. If the
combined/filtered value exceeds either the notice or alarm
setpoints, a notice or alarm is generated. If the Alarm
Disable or Notice Disable input is high, the Alarm or
Notice output, respectively, is forced to OFF. There are
Notice and Alarm digital outputs that the user can connect
to. In addition, the alarm and notice is automatically sent
to AdvisoryServices.

8.8.3 Alarm Output When On/Off Parameters

Alarm When On redefines the definition of “active” as it
refers to the state of the Alarm output. When the Sensor
Control application calls for the Alarm output to be ON
the Alarm output will change to the state specified in the
Alarm When On field. Select either ON, OFF, or NotAct
in this field. Alarm When Off redefines the definition of
“inactive” as it refers to the state of the Alarm output.
When the Sensor Control application calls for the Alarm
output to be OFF, the Alarm output will change to the state
specified in the Alarm When Off field. Select either OFF,
ON, or NotAct in this field.

8.8.4 Control Bypass

The digital output may be bypassed with a timed bypass.
The output may be bypassed to ON, OFF or NONE. Once
the STRT TIMED BYP goes high, the bypass remains in
effect until the Bypass Time has expired. The CNCL
TIMED BYP will cancel any bypass and operation will
return to normal. If STRT TIMED BYP is still on, it must
go low for one update before it will activate another
bypass.

8.9 Digital Sensor Control

The Digital Sensor Control read the values from one or
more digital sensors, combine them using a series of
logical commands, and operate a digital output (such as a
relay) based on the result of the logical combination.

The Digital Sensor Control module performs three basic
functions:

• LOGICAL COMBINATION - up to four inputs
may be combined using standard logical
combination methods (such as AND, OR, XOR).
The result is the command output value, which can
be used to operate a relay.

• BYPASS - The command output may be
configured to be bypassed to a fixed value by a

Digital Sensor Control Software Overview • 8-15

switch or button press.

• ALARMING - Alarms and notices can be
generated based on the command value of all the
digital inputs of the cell, plus occupancy, and
schedules.

8.9.1 Control Strategy

The Digital Output Module cell provides a mechanism for
combining multiple Digital Outputs into a single output
that can be used as an input to other cells.

The inputs can be combined as the following:

• AND - logical AND of inputs

• OR - logical OR of inputs

• XOR - logical XOR of inputs

• VOTE - result will be ON if the number of inputs
ON > number of inputs OFF

• FIRST - returns the logical value of the first good
(non-DV_NONE) input. There is also a First Good
output which shows the number 1-4 of the first
good input.

The Digital Output Module allows for a user to specify
two different input combination strategies: a primary
combination type, and an alternate combination type. The
module reads the state of the Use Alternate Combination
method input to determine which combination method to
use.

The combined value is then sent to a Schedule Interface
strategy. The Schedule Interface strategy allows the user to
modify the combined value based upon the occupied or
unoccupied state of the system. Two different combination
strategies may be specified by the user; a primary
combination strategy and an alternate combination
strategy. When the Use Alt Shed input is LOW, the
primary combination is used. When the Use Alt Shed
input is HIGH, the alternate combination strategy is used.

The output is then sent to a Min On/Min Off property that
sets its output based on the Min On/Min Off delay times.

The resulting output is passed to a One-Shot calculation
for applications that require a pulse rather than a logic
level. The output of the One-Shot can be a pulse of length
Pulse Width seconds that starts when the input to the One­Shot rises or falls depending on the Timer Type selection.

The Proof Fail output will be active as a result of
comparing the final control value with the Proof input. If
the input and output do not match for a length of time
equal to the Proof Delay, the Proof Fail output will go to
ON. It will stay ON for at least Proof Latch Dur seconds.
The user can select to use the actual value from the
Command output or the output from the Min On/Min Off
property. The proof will generate an alarm if the Proof

Alarm Type property is not set to Disabled.

There is also a counter on the Command Out that provides
a running count that increments every time the Command
Out cycles to ON and a digital Counter Trip Output that is
ON when the Counter value is greater than the Counter's
trip point. The user enters the initial value and the count
increments by the Count Inc value. The Count output
value is reset by sending a signal to the Reset Count input.
The Count Reset Type parameter specifies whether the
Count is reset based on the logic level, the rising edge or
the falling edge. The counter increments based on the
digital output after the bypass block.

The PRI DEMAND SHED input provides a way to have
the cell shut down in demand shed situations. If the PRI
DEMAND SHED is ON, the output will be set to the
logical OFF position by using the bypass functionality.
The Cmd When Off param will set the proper off value for
the output. The counter will not increment when in
demand shed regardless of the inputs.

8.9.2 Command Alarming

The command value will be used to determine the alarm
state. The command value is the combined value of all the
digital inputs of the cell, plus occupancy, and schedules.

When the command value changes to alarm condition, the
delay timer will start. If the state changes, the timer will
stop and no alarm will be issued. If the state stays for the
duration of the timer, an advisory will be issued. If a state
change occurs to the opposite state after the advisory has
been issued, it will be returned to normal.

If the advisory is reset, and the alarm/notice condition still
exists, the delay period will be honored. Advisories will
return to normal if the command value stays in the non­alarm/notice condition for the duration of the clear delay.
If the command value changes back to the alarm condi­tion, during the clear timer, the advisory will not return to
normal.

8.9.3 Alarm Output When On/Off

Parameters

Alarm When On redefines the definition of the command
“ON” as it relates to the state of the command output.
When the Sensor Control application calls for the output to
be “ON,” the command output will switch to the state
selected in the Cmd When On parameter. Select either
ON, OFF, or NotAct in this field.

8.9.4 Control Bypass

The digital output may be bypassed with a timed bypass.
The output by be bypassed to ON, OFF or NONE. Once
the STRT TIMED BYP goes high, the bypass remains in
effect until the Bypass Time has expired. The CNCL
