USER GUIDE

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

WebVision™ is a web-based building manager that allows contractors and facility managers to view and command HVAC controllers installed at their sites. It communicates over the LonWorks control of various devices and controllers through a web browser. The WebVision Bundle (WWS-VL1A1000) includes the WebVision controller pre-installed with a LON communications card, and power supply.

WebVision is capable of:

• Discovering unitary controllers connected to WebVision

• Configuring controllers using configuration wizards

• Monitoring, raising, and e-mailing alarms on controller points and system events

• Configuring and collecting trends on points

• Driving scheduled occupancy states

• Managing energy through Demand Limit Control (DLC)

• Providing single point of entry into the system to perform all the above mentioned tasks.

• Managing access to information through user privileges

• Providing IT-friendly network interface for easy access and management

WebVision acts as an offline configuration tool that helps the contractor to configure site project that consists of multiple unitary controllers. The contractor can commission all the controllers by connecting through a LAN, WAN, or Dial-up.

WebVision also acts like a network time master to synchronize time and date in devices connected to it with its own time and date or with the Internet time servers. Its Device Discovery feature enables you to discover online devices. You can manage users and control their access to different resources in the system. The System Administrator can configure network settings, site information settings, system and control, network data and time settings, and new module installation.

Users

You can create a maximum of 30 user profiles. You must be familiar with User ID and Password security standards to enforce user compliance when creating a user profile. As WebVision is a secure server, you need to log in with a preassigned user ID and password. The user ID and password combination determine your access level, which in turn determine the kind of operator and configuration functions performed.

The Network Administrator must be familiar with user ID and password security standards and enforce user compliance. The WebVision System Administrator can be accessed using these initial default user ID and password: User ID SysAdmin and Password - !Sys!Admin.

It is a good practice to add one or more additional users with Administrator access level to ensure top level access to WebVision. Those with higher access levels have the privileges of all the lower levels in addition to the privileges unique to that level. These access levels are managed by the System Administrator. There can be an individual or many System Administrators who are assigned the task of managing individuals at different access levels.

NOTE: For security compliance, it is mandatory to change

Use the Users tab to add users, assign devices to them and define their privileges based on their roles. There are four types of user roles (see Table 3):

• Contractor - Contractor is a user with all the privileges

• Facility Manager - This role represents a Building

• Tenant - The user assigned to this role has limited access

• Balancer - Balancer is a user who performs VAV Balancing

Demand Limit Control (DLC)

Demand Limit Control (DLC) continuously monitors the building's rate of energy consumption. It automatically sheds or restores loads to prevent the demand (load) from exceeding the maximum allowable level or configured setpoint. It is based on the building's power requirements and operating characteristics. For DLC to have control over energy savings, the configured setpoint must be less than the actual demand allocated by the power generating plant. DLC sheds or adjusts the loads during peak usages only. DLC is driven from the current KW demand, which is an instantaneous value averaged over a period of time (demand averaging window period). It is a good practice to adjust the DLC window close to the utility company's demand window period. This in turn will help WebVision to follow the same criteria as that of the utility company when taking KW demand shed decisions. The energy history log must also match the peak demand recorded by the utility company.

Load Assignments

Each device is considered to be an external object when assigning it to a load. A load consists of a local configuration that defines the behavior of the load and its association with an object or a set of objects. These objects are discovered Excel 10 or Excel 15C devices, which in turn control the external electrical loads. All the objects associated under one load assignment are shed at once, restored at once and overwritten at once depending on the configuration of the load assignment. Each load assignment is identified by a load assignment number ranging from 1 to 50.

The following are the two types of loads that DLC sheds to maintain demand below the peak setpoint:

Off Continuous Loads

Off Continuous loads are the first loads that are shed by DLC. Once shed, they are not restored immediately. Loads marked as Off Continuous generally control the loads that are least important to overall operation of the facility. When KW demand exceeds the peak setpoint, Off Continuous loads are shed first starting from the lowest numbered load (1) to the highest (50). These loads are shed until the demand goes below the peak setpoint limit. The first load is shed at staging interval seconds after the KW exceeds the peak setpoint. Additional loads are shed at staging interval, seconds until the KW is less than the peak setpoint. Off Continuous loads, once shed are the last to be restored when demand is less than the normal level (setpoint minus the dead band). Off continuous loads are restored in the order reverse to which they were shed (highest load (50th) is restored first). Any Off Continuous load that is shed remains inactive for at least the configured Minimum Shed Time.

Rotating Loads

Rotating loads are shed or adjusted after shedding Off Continuous loads, as DLC needs to reduce the demand. Loads marked as Rotating have more important equipment assigned to them than the loads marked as Off Continuous.

Rotating loads are shed or adjusted only after all the Off Continuous loads are shed and if the KW demand still exceeds the peak setpoint. DLC sheds the Rotating loads in sequence starting with the lowest numbered load first. When demand is below the normal level (peak setpoint minus the dead band), the Rotating loads are restored on a priority basis; highest priority is given to the load that has been shed for the longest period. If restoration of a Rotating load causes KW to raise above the peak setpoint, then the next eligible Rotating load (usually the next higher numbered Rotating load) is shed.

NOTE: Note: Rotating loads are restored before Off

Continuous loads when KW demand is below the normal level (less than the peak setpoint minus the dead band). Rotating loads are not eligible for shed until their Minimum On Time has elapsed after restoration. Once shed, a Rotating load cannot be shed again until all the other eligible Rotating loads are shed. Rotating loads are not restored until their Minimum Shed Time has elapsed. Rotating loads can't be in Shed time not more than the Max Shed time.

DLC Load Shedding and Restoring Methods

DLC monitors the current KW levels at every staging interval and averages it over a period of time.

• If the current KW demand is above the configured peak setpoint, then DLC sheds loads at defined intervals until the demand drops below the peak setpoint.

• If the KW demand drops below the normal level (peak setpoint minus the dead band), then the previously shed loads are actively restored at every staging interval until the KW demand rises back above the normal level.

21 95-7769—01

WEBVISION™

Load Shedding Method

1. The DLC starts shedding by first searching for all the Off Continuous loads that are eligible for shedding.

2. Then, it first sheds the lowest numbered Off Continuous load and waits the staging interval to see if the demand has reduced.

3. If the demand is still above the peak setpoint, then DLC sheds another Off Continuous load. This process continues until the demand is well within the peak setpoint limits.

4. If the demand has still not reduced, then DLC searches for all the Rotated loads.

Load Restoring Method

• If the demand drops below the normal level, then the loads that are currently shed will be actively restored one at a time, every staging interval, until the demand reaches the normal level. When restoring loads, DLC, on priority, searches and restores:

• The Rotating loads where the load that has been shed for the longest period is restored first.

• Then the Off Continuous loads where the load restoration goes from highest load number to the lowest load number.

• Loads are restored every staging interval if the override condition becomes true or the maximum shed time has been met. All loads that satisfy these conditions are restored.

Use one of the following filter options to search for the required load assignment:

• Load Name Pattern

• Shed Method

• Shed State

NOTE: To quickly search, type the first letter of the required

filter criteria in the Keyword text box and type an asterisk (*). This lists all the names starting with the first letter that you have written in the Keyword text box.

DLC Status

Demand Limit Control is a function that controls the maximum power demand made on the whole system by shedding some of the load based on priority where total power usage of configured loads exceeds the predefined limit. Shedding requires turning off some digital output, or changing a setpoint to a more economical level.

You can view the DLC service status that includes all load assignment details. DLC status is updated at the rate of the staging interval.

If the trend that has to be created is already present and meets the requirement, the user is advised to just enable that trend instead of creating a new one.

3. Schedules – Looking at the XL15A configuration in LonSpec, manually create corresponding Schedules configuration in WebVision. Follow the steps given in User Guide or Online help to understand how to create Schedules in WebVision.

4. Loops – WebVision does not support inbuilt loops. However, if this feature is critical, the user can replace XL15A with XL15C. Or the user can disconnect XL15A from the Lon Network. If XL15C is used, the same loops can be configured in XL15C using LonSpec and recommissioned. If the XL15A is disconnected from network, the user should be aware that it may be driving RIOs or may have bindings with other devices to get some sensor information. The device should be reconfigured and re-commissioned using LonSpec to remove such dependencies.

5. Network Time Master – If XL15A is acting as Network Time Master, when decommissioned, WebVision can be configured to act as Network Time Master. Refer WebVision’s User Guide or Online Help for details.

6. DLC – If XL15A is performing Demand Limit Control (DLC). The same can be done in WebVision. However the user should note that WebVision supports only one Setpoint. The configuration has to be done as appropriate. Refer WebVision’s User Guide or Online Help for details.

7. Pulse Meter Input – If a Energy Pulse Meter is connected to XL15A because it is running DLC or because it is providing that information to a different XL15A, then if replacing XL15A with XL15C will allow the user to configure XL15C to connect Pulse Meter and act as source for KW input for DLC running in WebVision.

WEBVISION™

8. Alarm Dial-Out – This feature is not supported by WebVision or by any alternate mechanisms. Hence this has to be dropped as part of migration process.

9. Runtime Logs - This feature is not supported by WebVision or by any alternate mechanisms. Hence this has to be dropped as part of migration process.

10. Bindings between XL15A and RIOs – XL15A can be replaced with XL15C to drive the loops configured. If the loops are driving RIOs, the same be achieved using XL15Cs and RIOs. The user should replace XL15A with XL15C, configure the same loops in XL15C, associate RIOs to XL15C in LonSpec and re-commission XL15C and RIOs.

NOTE: The user should remember that replacing a controller

would involve rewiring and testing the physical installation. The new XL15C that is replacing existing XL15A has to be purchased separately and will not be provided along with WebVision.

Decommissioning XL15B

WebVision supports most of the functionality of XL15B. However XL15B configuration has to be manually created in WebVision. Configuration of the following functions should be recreated in WebVision:

1. Alarms

2. Trends

3. Schedules – Unlike in XL15B, WebVision does not

support year round schedules. WebVision supports weekly schedules that repeat through out the year. Hence the schedules should be modified accordingly

4. DLC – Note that WebVision supported only one Setpoint as against three in XL15B. Configuration should be done accordingly

5. Special Graphics – Special Graphics in XL15B can be created as Locations and Graphics on Locations in WebVision

6. Network Time Master functionality

7. Internet Time Synchronization

8. Alarm Emailing

9. User accounts

10. Home Page graphics and Login Page graphics

Decommissioning T7300

Following are the considerations for de-commissioning T7300:

1. If the devices on the Lon network are following schedule in T7300, then a similar schedule should be created in WebVision and assign those devices to follow schedule created in WebVision. The schedule configuration can be referred in LonSpec and has to be manually created in WebVision.

2. If T7300 is acting as Network Time Master, the Network Time Master Functionality in WebVision has to be enabled. Once enabled, WebVision will synchronize the clocks on all supported devices with Real-Time Clocks that can be updated over the Lon network

T7350 Changes

WebVision supports configuration and management of T7350:

1. If a T7350 exists at the site and is driving scheduled occupancy state of other devices, the user should ensure that none of the schedules in WebVision drive

the occupancy state of those controllers that are following T7350. If WebVision has to drive the occupancy state of those controllers, user should first unassign them from T7350 in LonSpec, commission T7350 and the assigned controllers before configuring schedules in WebVision

2. If T7350 is acting as Network Time Master, it has to be disabled from LONSpec and re-commission T7350. The Network Time Master Functionality in WebVision has to be enabled. Once enabled, WebVision will synchronize the clocks on all supported devices with Real-Time Clocks that can be updated over the Lon network

XL15C changes

XL15C is supported in WebVision. However, there are some differences that should be noted (below):

1. LonSpec creates bindings between XL15Cs and assigned RIOs as shown in ‘refer points’ screen. These bindings are present to read/command all I/Os on RIO even if they are not used. WebVision does not have concept of associating RIOs with XL15Cs. Therefore, following is the behavior during migration: a. When the XL15C bindings are uploaded in WebVi-

sion, only used/ configured bindings are actually shown and bindings on un-configured I/Os are ignored

b. LonSpec allows naming I/Os of RIO (W7761).

These names are stored in associated XL15C’s secondary configuration file. As WebVision does not support this file, all the RIO point names will appear with default names in WebVision after migration. User would manually associate them by creating appropriate bindings between XL15Cs and RIOs.

2. If an XL15C controller at the site uses a poll point configured to poll an unsupported LON device, the Device, NV and Field information will not show up in WebVision’s XL15C configuration wizard as the device is not present in WebVision’s database. As part of decommissioning the unsupported device, the user has to re-commission the XL15C so that information is removed from the configuration

3. The time taken to upload/download XL15C depends on the number of loops configured in that XL15C. If more number of loops is configured, WebVision will take more time to upload/download. XL15C stores each loop configuration in separate sections in its memory. WebVision while uploading reads general device configuration, reads the number of loops, reads I/Os configured and then uploads configuration of each loop and I/O

4. WebVision will upload all the objects that are configured and used in control logic. If there are any Math Functions, Setpoints, Logic Loops, Start Stop Loops that are just given names or engineering units but do not read any input or drive any output, such objects may be ignored. The same reason is applicable while downloading from WebVision. This optimizes the download/upload process and does not impact the XL15C configuration.

5. While uploading bindings, WebVision will not upload bindings in which unconfigured objects like Control Loops, Start Stop Loops, Logic Loops, Analog Inputs are acting as source or target of the bindings.
