Introduction to FX15

Figure 1: FX15 Classic

The FX15 is a high performance field controller of the Facility Explorer system, specifically designed for commercial Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration (HVACR) applications such as chillers and rooftops, indoor packaged air conditioning units, air handling units, and close control units.

The controller has 27 physical inputs and outputs and supports a wide range of temperature sensors and actuating devices. Additional physical inputs and outputs may be achieved by adding the XT/XP expansion modules on the local Extension bus.

The FX15 controller is fully programmable or configurable, using the FX Tools Pro software package, for a wide range of commercial environmental control applications.

The FX15 controller is also available with a serial communication card for integration into a Building Automation System with a LONWORKS® or N2 Open bus network.

For stand-alone applications an on-board, real-time clock circuit is also included to support the start-stop scheduling of equipment and real-time based control sequences.

The FX15 can be integrated, as a slave device, in a distributed control application managed by a master controller (FX16 Master Controller or Master Display).

Optional accessories make the FX15 controller the state of the art solution for the HVACR market:

• N2 Open, plug-in communication card

• LON, plug-in communication card

3. Launch FX Loader.

4. Upload the application.

Performing a Programming Key Memory Erase

If the key is already loaded with an application and there is the necessity to substitute it with a different application, the user has to do a memory erase.

The memory erase is automatically performed by FX Loader. However, in the case where the application is loaded from a personal computer or where the application has to be loaded from another FX15, the user has to manually perform the memory erase.

To perform a Programming Key memory erase:

1. Power up the key, either by hot-plugging it to an FX15 (already on)

or with an AC/DC adapter.

2. Initiate the memory erase by pressing the Programming Key button

for 15 seconds. During the erase, the green Light-Emitting Diode (LED) slowly

blinks. Then the green and the yellow LED blinks, 2 times alternatively, and finally the green LED remains steady on. The flash erases.

If the two LEDs blink simultaneously, it means that the erase process has failed. Retry. When the memory is completely erased, the LEDs stop blinking. The key is now ready for a new upload. The memory erase is also necessary if the previous upload from the FX15 goes wrong (communication has been interrupted).

Analog Inputs

The six high-resolution analog inputs can be configured to accept a wide range of voltage, current and resistive input signals.

See I/O Technical Details for the complete FX15 I/O table. A dedicated jumper is placed on board for each analog input. This

jumper should be installed in its closed position if the connected sensor provides a current signal (0-20/4-20 mA). This jumper should be installed in its open position if the connected sensor provides a resistive, ratiometric, or voltage (0-2/0-10 V) input signal.

The active sensor (voltage or current) inputs are ranged using programmable range parameters within the application software. These parameters, HighRange and LowRange, define the equivalent values for reading at High (10 V, 20 mA) and Low (0 V, 4 mA, 0 mA) signal input. Voltage and current inputs from differential pressure transducers can be linearized by a square root function (SQRT), which operates over the complete range of the input.

The passive sensors (resistance) have a preprogrammed linearization curves within the application software. For these sensors, the measurement range is fixed. The user can set the reliability range via software.

The read signal is converted by the FX15 according to the related Analog Input object setup, available setup are:

• Linear 0-10 V

• SQRT 0-10 V

• Linear 0-10 V, 20% suppression (2-10 V)

• Linear 0-2 V

• SQRT 0-2 V

• Linear 0-2 V, 20% suppression (0.4-2 V)

• Linear 0-20 mA

• SQRT 0-20 mA

• Linear 0-20 mA, 20% suppression (0.4-2 mA)

• Resistance 2k ohm

Digital Inputs Powered by 24 VAC

The eight FX15 Digital Inputs must be 24V powered, through terminals 34 and 35, both AC or DC voltage can be used, if DC is used then the power supply of the DIs will have to be necessarily independent from the controller power supply, being the FX15 compatible with VAC power only. The digital inputs can use the same FX15 voltage supply or they can be separately powered, in order to maintain the microprocessor opto-isolation from the controller voltage supply.

Using Analog Inputs as Digital Inputs

In case the user needs more than the 8 digital inputs available, the FX15 allows you to use an analog input as digital input.

Analog Outputs

FX15

Figure 37: Digital Input Connection Diagram

The Analog Input needs to be properly configured in FX Tools to read the digital input.

The FX15 provides up to four, 0-10 VDC, 2A maximum, opto-isolated analog outputs. The Analog Output objects provide the interface between the four hardware Analog Output channels and the control application. See I/O Technical Details at page 54 for the complete FX15 I/O table.

The analog outputs can be configured for direct or reverse acting in the application software.

The output signal can be limited by high limit (MaxOutput) and low limit (MinOutput) values.

Powering and Connecting the Analog Outputs

The analog outputs can be separately powered, through Terminals 79 and 80, in order to ensure microprocessor isolation from the controller power supply (see Figure 39).

The FX15 analog outputs are commonly used to drive proportional devices and can be connected to all the Johnson Controls Proportional Valve Actuators.

The following figure represents the connection diagram.

Digital Outputs

The FX15 features 9 digital outputs, available in two hardware configurations: all 9 Relays or 4 Relays and 5 triacs.

The Digital Outputs can be configured for direct acting or reverse acting in the application software.

WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock and Property Damage.

Disconnect each of multiple power supplies before making electrical connections. More than one disconnect may be required to completely de-energize equipment. Contact with components carrying hazardous voltage can cause electric shock and may result in severe personal injury or death.

Connecting the Relays

The FX15 features up to nine Digital Outputs with electromechanical relays. To simplify assembly, the common terminals of some relays have been grouped together. The relays are divided into six groups, according to the distance of insulation.

Extension Modules

The input/output capacity of the FX15 may be extended by connecting up to four extension modules via the Extension Bus (XT-Bus, terminal J1).

An extension module if formed by an XT91D00 processor/communications module and one or more XP expansion modules. The expansion modules provide input/output capability for the extension modules. The following are available for the XT91D00 extension module:

• XP91D02: six analog inputs and two analog outputs

• XP91D03: eight digital outputs (triac)

• XP91D04: four digital inputs and four digital outputs (triac)

• XP91D05: eight digital inputs

• XP91D06: four digital outputs 230 VAC (relay) (EU only)

• XP91D07: four digital outputs 24 VAC (relay) (NA only)

Analog inputs to extension modules may be 0-10 V, 0-20 mA or passive RTD-Ni1000 (Johnson Controls characteristic only), Pt1000 or A99 sensors.

Analog inputs to the XPA-421-5 module only may additionally be RTD-Ni1000 (LandG and DIN), Pt100 and NI100 sensors or a 5 K ohm potentiometer.

Voltage and current inputs from differential pressure transducers can be linearized by a square root function.

Digital inputs to extension modules are potential-free contacts. The input is active (true) when the contact is closed.

Digital counters are available in extension modules, which do not have analog inputs or outputs. Digital counters are associated with digital inputs. The number of positive transitions of the physical digital input required to increment the counter can be programmed in the extension module.

Note: Counter values are saved in EEPROM by XT/XP only at the power down, in the particular situation of an application downloading to the FX15 the increments occurred from the last XT/XP power-up and the download are lost. The problem can be overcome if a power down of the XT/XP module of interest is executed right before proceeding with the program download.

Analog outputs in extension modules can be configured to provide 0-10 V, 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA signals. The output is ranged by low range and high range variables to provide a 0-100% signal to the extension module.

Page 43

FX15 Controller Technical Bulletin

Digital outputs in extension modules can only be configured as on/off or pulse type, and the physical output may be a triac or a relay contact. Pulse type outputs switch on for a configurable period (1 to 1275 ms) for each transition of the connected variable.

An XT91D00 can be combined with its expansion modules to provide the following configurations:

• 8 analog inputs/outputs

• 8 digital inputs/outputs, with digital counters associated with the

digital inputs

• 8 analog inputs/outputs and eight digital inputs/outputs

• 16 digital inputs/outputs, with digital counters associated with the

digital inputs within the first eight input/output points

Troubleshooting

Reading 9999 or Invalid from the Analog Inputs

• Error/Condition: The Analog Input object retrieves an Invalid

value through network variables or the User Interface Unit shows 9999 or Invalid customized tag;

• Problem: Happens in the case the signal applied to the Analog

Input channel does not match with the one configured via software on the Analog Input Object. The read signal is outside the configured reliability range. The problem can be due to the Jumper configuration of the Analog Input channel which can not be set according to the signal provided by the sensor;

• Solution: In case the signal does not match with the configured,

change the Analog Input Object configuration via FX Builder. If the software is properly configured but the problem still happens, check the analog inputs jumpers are properly set in order to accept the sensor signal and verify the probe functioning and wirings.

Can Not Properly Read Current Sensors

• Error/Condition: Connecting an active, current sensor to an

Analog Input channel, the AI Object retrieves an Invalid value;

• Problem: In the case the AI Object is properly configured and the

probe is correctly wired and functioning, the problems may be due to a wrong AI Jumper configuration;

• Solution: A dedicated Jumper is placed on board for each Analog

Input Channel. This Jumper is used in its close configuration in the case the connected sensor provides a Current signal (0-20/4-20 mA). Its open configuration has t o b e used for R e s i stiv e , R a tio- M e t r ic or Volt a g e ( 0 - 2 / 0 - 1 0 V ) input signals.

Page 46

FX15 Controller Technical Bulletin

Key Concepts

Software Programming and Application Configuration

The FX15 provides configurable control algorithm, memory and connectivity services, real-time functions, and I/O expansion through its customizable, objects and services oriented, architecture. The device configurations can be created and downloaded into the target controllers via the FX Tools Pro software package.

The tools available in the package are:

• FX Builder: The programming and configuration of the Facility

Explorer controllers is done using the menus, navigation trees, and graphic screens of the FX Builder tool. The configuration includes the definition of the controllers to be connected, the physical inputs and outputs and data points to be monitored and the format of the display screen of the controller.

• FX Builder Express: A simplified version of the FX Builder, called

FX Builder Express, is also available to configure a library of standard applications specifically designed for Facility Explorer controllers. The configuration is done using the specific graphic user interfaces of the FX Builder Express.

• FX CommPro N2/LON: Parameter configuration, machine tuning,

default parameters saving for successive configurations are all things possible with the FX CommPro tool with 2 protocols supported: N2 Open, LONWORKS.

Alarm and Event Management

The FX15 manages and records events or alarms that are associated with data points or variables in the control application.

The table of active events and the event history log may be viewed on the user interfaces.

Time Scheduling

This feature allows introducing functions based on a weekly time schedule. The clock is battery backed up with an average duration time of 2 years.

User Interfaces

The FX15 can have different user interface options (integrated, local, or remote) proving the possibility to display and edit all the data point and information of the running a pplicatio n. The u ser interfac e is fully configurable at design time.

Page 47

FX15 Controller Technical Bulletin

Security

The FX Tools and the FX controllers come with an embedded security features based on the use of two IDs: the Family ID and the Customer ID. This security feature prevents tampering with the applications and provides source code protection.

Supervisory Option

The FX15 can be integrated into a supervisory building automation system for continuous monitoring of the control system. The FX15 supports two methods of integration:

• N2 Open Integration

• LONWORKS Integration

Application Upload/Download

The FX15 is a fully programmable controller and the application can be downloaded to the controller with the FX Tools or uploaded/downloaded via Programming Key.

Page 48

FX15 Controller Technical Bulletin

User Interface

The FX15 can be connected to up to 2 remote user interfaces with the possibility to display/edit all the data point and information of the running application. The user interface application is fully configurable at design time. The user interface must be of the same type. The user interfaces are optional, which means that the controller can work also without any display plugged-in.

The configuration is integrated, local, for example: panel mount (up to 3 m [9.8 ft]) or remote, for example: wall mount (up to 1km [0.6 mi]):

• integrated: directly plugged on top of the controller

• local: up to 3 m (9.8 ft) from the controller, power supply and data

communication via the flat telephone cable included in the LP-KIT007-000C

• remote: up to 300 m (984 ft) from the controller.

The display must be independently powered; the data communication is done via a 3 pole shielded cable (not provided) connected to the Remote Display Connection of the FX15.

The FX15 can support 1 integrated user interface or 1 panel mount or wall mount user interface or 1 panel mount display + 1 wall mount user in or 2 wall mount ones. For the panel mount connection use the pre-cabled connection kit (LP-KIT007-000C), 3 m (9.8 ft) long, with a phone jack on the MUI side and a preassembled screw connector on the FX15 side.

The user interface models connectable to the FX15 are:

• LP-DIS65P10-0C: Large User Interface (LUI), panel, flush mount

or hand held, 4x20 backlit LCD, IP54, extended temperature range:

-20 to +50°C (68 to 122°F), standard JCI front-plate. The front-plate is fully customizable upon minimum order.

Customer ID

Customer ID protects a controller downloaded with a custom developed application and protects the application source code from editing by unauthorized users. Three Customer ID types are used:

• Public ID: applications that are saved with Public ID can be

downloaded and commissioned by any user with the Public ID enabled in FX Tools.

• Demo ID: applications that are saved with the Demo ID can only be

downloaded to demo controllers.

• Customer/Private Specific ID: Applications that are saved with a

specific customer/private ID will make those applications source files readable only by users who have the same ID enabled in FX Tools. Once a controller has been downloaded with a specific Customer ID, the controller will become customer specific and only allow downloading of application with the same customer specific ID.
