INTRODUCTION
Description of Devices
The W7752D,E,F,G, and J Controllers and W7754K,L,M,N,
and P Controllers are Fan Coil Unit Controllers belonging to
the Excel 10 product line. Excel 10 FCU Controller systems
control the space temperature in a given room by regulating
the heating and/or cooling equipment which control the temperature of the air delivered to that space and the fan which
controls air flow. Reheat coils are often included at the fan coil
unit. Excel 10 FCU Controllers are capable of stand-alone
operation; however, optimum functional benefits are achieved
when the network communication capabilities are used.
A family of direct wired wall modules with a temperature
sensor for space temperature measurement, setpoint adjustment, bypass push-button, status LED, and LCD display can
be used in conjunction with Excel 10 FCU Controllers.
Excel 5000
The wall modules are available in a variety of models
incorporating various combinatinos of the following options:
• Setpoint adjustment
• Bypass pushbutton and LED
• Fan Switching
• See Table 7 on page 12 for a complete list of wall
modules options
Excel 10 FCU Controllers connect to a LonWorks network and
interoperate with 3

Control Application
Fan coil unit systems in commercial buildings control room
temperature through the control of heat and/or cold water
valves and fan speed. Electric reheat coils may also be used
in the system. The Excel 10 FCU Controller is located in the
FCU and is typically connected to an Excel 10 wall module
e.g. Excel 10 W7754

Control Provided
Excel 10 FCU Controllers provide room temperature control
for two- and four-pipe fan coil units with optional electric
heating coil. The basic control sequence is shown in Fig. 3.
As space temperature falls below the heating setpoint, the
heating output is increased. As space temperature
increases above the cooling setpoint, the cooling output is
modulated to 100%. Switching levels for staged
heating/cooling and fan speeds are configurable. The fan
may still be configured to run continuously during the zero
energy band in the "occupied" mode. Additional
configurable fan control features include fan minimum
ON/OFF times, run-up, and overrun-times.
Excel 10 FCU Controllers use a PID control algorithm in
which each of the three parameters can be configured.
There are additional configurable boost parameters ("PID
Boost:" "Cooling" and "Heating") which specify a range
outside of which the heating or cooling outputs are turned
ON fully for faster response (in the case of thermal
actuators, this specifies the control hysteresis). The
controllers are delivered with factory defaults for each of the
parameters.

Fig. 3. Control sequence diagram
Setpoints
Setpoint Knob
The Excel 10 FCU Controllers may be hardwired to an Excel
10 wall module equipped with a setpoint knob. When the
Excel 10 FCU Controller has been configured (using the LNS
plug-in tool) to read input from the wall module's setpoint
knob, the value from the setpoint knob is used to calculate the
"occupied" setpoint for the heating and the cooling modes.
There are two configurations which determine how the
setpoint used by the control algorithm is calculated: "relative"
(or "offset") and "absolute middle". When configured for
"relative", the Excel 10 wall module setpoint knob represents
a number from -9...+9 DDF(-5...+5 K) which is added to the
configured "occupied" and "standby" setpoints for the heating
and the cooling modes. When configured to "absolute
middle", the setpoint knob becomes the mid-point of the Zero
Energy Band (ZEB) extending between the "occupied" or
"standby" setpoints for the heating and the cooling modes.
The range of the ZEB is found by taking the difference
between the "occupied" or "standby" setpoints configured for
the heating and the cooling modes; in the case of "absolute
middle", the current "occupied" and "standby" setpoints are
therefore found as follows:
When the Excel 10 FCU Controller is in the "occupied" mode:
When the Excel 10 FCU Controller is in the "unoccupied"
mode, the remote setpoint knob is ignored, and the configured setpoints for this mode are used instead.
Setpoint Limits
Setpoints are limited to the range of 50...95°F (10...35°C).
The value of the setpoint knob is limited to the range provided
by the configuration parameters Maximum Limit Setpoint pot
and Minimum Limit Setpoint pot. In the case of absolute
"occupied" and "standby" setpoints, the setpoint knob still
represents the mid-point of the ZEB, even when set to either
of these limits. The actual setpoints are given by the
equations shown above. When the setpoint knob is configured
to be "relative", the lowest actual "occupied" setpoint allowed
is equal to SptHeatOcc - SptKnobLowLim, and the highest
allowed is equal to SptCoolOcc + SptKnobHiLim. The lowest
and highest "standby" setpoints are found in an analogous
fashion.
Setpoint from Network
When the Excel 10 FCU Controller is not configured to be
hardwired to a wall module, nviSetPoint must be bound to
another node that provides a setpoint. When bound and when
a valid update is received, nviSetPoint is used with the
appropriate ZEB:
The "unoccupied" setpoint does not depend on nviSetPoint at
all.
Setpoint Offset
Third-party nodes may be bound to nviSetPtOffset to shift the
setpoint in the range of -18 to 18 DDF (-10 K to 10 K).

EXCEL 10 FCU CONTROLLER LNS PLUG-INS USER GUIDE
Bypass
Bypass Mode
When the Excel 10 FCU Controller is in the "unoccupied"
mode, the Excel 10 wall module's bypass push-button may be
used to force the Excel 10 FCU Controller into the "occupied"
mode. The Excel 10 FCU Controller can also be forced into
the "occupied" mode by means of a L
command (when nviManOccCmd is set to OC_BYPASS). The
controller will then remain in "bypass" mode until:
1. The bypass timer has timed out, or
2. The user again presses the Excel 10 wall module's
bypass push-button, thus cancelling the "bypass" mode,
or
3. The occupancy schedule (nviTodEvent) switches the
mode to "occupied".
4. nviManOccCmd is set to OC_NUL.
The Excel 10 wall module indicates the current bypass mode
status (see Excel 10 wall module literature for further
information).
Bypass Timer
When the "bypass" mode has been activated, the bypass
timer is set to BypTime (default of 180 minutes), at the end of
which the mode will revert to its original state (see Excel 10
wall module literature for further information).
Continuous "Unoccupied" Mode
The continuous "unoccupied" mode is entered when an Excel
10 wall module is configured to allow it and if:
• (in the case of the T7460) the bypass button is pressed for
four to seven seconds (until the LED blinks),
• (in the case of the T7560) the bypass button is pressed for
more than five seconds (until the flashing moon appears).
The Excel 10 FCU Controller can also be forced into the continuous "unoccupied" mode by means of a L
work command (when nviManOccCmd is set to
OC_UNOCCUPIED). The Excel 10 FCU Controller will then
remain in this mode indefinitely, or until the bypass button is
pressed to exit the mode or a network command is sent to
clear the mode.
Bypass Push-Button
Excel 10 FCU Controllers may be hardwired to an Excel 10
wall module equipped with a bypass push-button. The bypass
push-button has three possible configurations (see Table 17
for further information):
• NONE
• BYPASS_UNOCCUPIED
• BYPASS_ONLY
Override Priority
Excel 10 FCU Controllers can be configured to arbitrate
overrides coming from the bypass push-button and the
network. There are two possible configurations, having the
following meanings:
•LAST_WINS specifies that the last command received
from either the wall module or nviManOccCmd
determines the effective override state.
•NETWORK_WINS specifies that, regardless of the wall
module override state, the effective occupancy mode is
ONWORKS network
ONWORKS net-
determined by nviManOccCmd (provided it has not been
set to OC_NUL).
LED/LCD
LED Override
The wall module’s LED indicates that the FCU Controller is
being overridden by either the bypass button or the
L
ONWORKS network.
• LED ON ⇒ "override bypass"
• One flash per second ⇒ "override unoccupied"
• Two flashes per second ⇒ "override standby" or
"occupied"
• LED OFF ⇒ no override
• Four flashes per second ⇒ The controller is responding to
a L
ONWORKS network management wink command.
LED Occupancy
The wall module’s LED indicates the effective occupancy
mode.
• LED ON ⇒ effective "occupied" or effective "bypass"
• One flash per second ⇒ effective "standby"
• LED OFF ⇒ effective "unoccupied"
• Four flashes per second ⇒ The controller is responding to
a L
ONWORKS network management wink command.
LCD Display
This mode is used only for T7560 Wall Modules. The
occupancy mode is represented by the following symbols:
⇒ effective "occupied" or effective "bypass"
⇒ effective "standby"
⇒ effective "unoccupied"
⇒ Controller is OFF
and ⇒ Controller is OFF, frost protection is enabled.
Flashing symbols indicate the "override" mode:
⇒ override "occupied" or override "bypass"
⇒ override "standby"
⇒ override "unoccupied"
⇒ The controller is responding to a L
ONWORKS network
management wink command.
Energy-Saving Features
The "Standby" Mode
The digital input for reading input from an occupancy sensor
(usually a motion detector) provides the Excel 10 FCU Controller with a means to enter an energy-saving standby mode
whenever there are no people in the room. The "standby"
mode occurs when the scheduled occupancy mode is
"occupied" but the occupancy sensor indicates that the room
is nevertheless currently unoccupied. If no occupancy sensor
is directly connected to the Excel 10 FCU Controller, an
occupancy sensor from another node may be bound to the
network input nviSensorOCC. The Excel 10 FCU Controller
can also be forced into the "standby" mode by means of a
L
ONWORKS network command (when nviManOccCmd is set to
OC_STANDBY). When in the "standby" mode, the Excel 10
FCU Controller uses the "standby" setpoints configured for
the heating and the cooling modes.
EN2B-0285GE51 R0909

EXCEL 10 FCU CONTROLLER LNS PLUG-INS USER GUIDE
Window Sensor
The digital input for reading input from a window contact
provides the Excel 10 FCU Controller with a means to disable
its temperature control activities if someone has opened a
window or door in the room. If no window sensor is directly
connected to the Excel 10 FCU Controller, the sensor from
another node may be used by binding it to nviWindow. Frost
protection remains active. Normal temperature control
resumes when the window closes.
Demand Limit Control
When a high-electrical-demand signal is received from an
energy management system via the L
(nviDlcShed), the Excel 10 FCU Controller uses Demand
Limit Control Bump to shift the current setpoint (down for
heating and up for cooling) by the configured value to save
energy.
ONWORKS network
Optimum Start Gradients
There are two parameters, Cool Rec Ramp and Heat Rec
Ramp, which can be configured to cause the cooling and
heating setpoints respectively to ramp up to their occupied
settings from their unoccupied or standby settings prior to
scheduled occupancy. The Excel 10 FCU Controller uses the
configured rates to determine the optimum time to start
increasing the heating or cooling demand. See the following
figures. The configuration parameters are in K/hour.
Fig. 5. Optimum start - cooling
Fig. 4. Optimum start - heating
Occupancy Status
The occupancy status is determined based upon the following table. Manual override may come from nviManOccCmd or from
the bypass push-button.

Safety Features
Frost Protection
If the room temperature falls below 46.4 °F (8 °C), the Excel
10 FCU Controller enables the heating circuit to ensure frost
protection and an alarm is issued. When the temperature
rises above 48.2 °F (9 °C) again, the heating circuit is turned
OFF again.
Smoke Control
The Excel 10 FCU Controller will respond to L
ONWORKS
network emergency commands by switching OFF
heating/cooling outputs and switching OFF the fan
(depressurize) or switching ON the fan at its highest speed
(pressurize). An alarm is issued for any emergency
commands
Fan Failure Protection
When configured with an airflow detector, the Excel 10 FCU
Controller protects equipment by switching OFF heating /
cooling outputs and issuing an alarm when the fan fails.
Fan Interlocks
The Excel 10 FCU Controller can be configured such that
heating and/or cooling outputs are never ON unless the fan is
running. A fan run-up time can be configured to turn ON the
fan prior to the heating/cooling outputs being switched ON,
and a fan overrun time can be configured to keep the fan
running for a period of time after the heating/cooling outputs
are switched OFF.

Fan Type
Each fan coil unit controlled by an Excel 10 FCU Controller
can have a fan with up to three different speeds or no fan at
all. Multi-speed fans are switched at the same switching levels
as multi-staged heating control points (see Fig. 9). For
example, a three-speed fan will switch ON its first speed at
the same control level as the first stage of heating or cooling
up until the second stage of heating or cooling where the
second fan speed will switch on. A two stage fan will switch
with the first two stages of a 3-stage heating or cooling
system. Likewise, a single speed fan will turn ON at the first
stage of any multi-staged system. Conversely, a multi-speed
fan may follow multiple switching levels even for singlestaged, floating, PWM, or thermal actuator-based systems.
Hysteresis
The hysteresis for fan speed extends to the next lower
switching level (or a control level of 0) as is shown in Fig. 9.
For example, the second fan speed will remain ON until the
control level falls below the switching point for the first fan
speed. Minimum ON/OFF times can be configured and will
apply to all fan switching points.
Interlock
A fan interlock can be configured which prevents heating or
cooling outputs from being turned ON in the event of a fan
failure (where an air flow detector is installed to detect fan
failure). When fan interlock is configured, run-up and overruntimes can be configured to delay switching ON the heating or
cooling equipment after switching ON the fan and delay
switching OFF the fan after the heating or cooling equipment
is switched OFF.
The fan can be configured to run continuously during the zero
energy band during occupied periods.

Type of Heating and Cooling Equipment
Excel 10 FCU Controllers can operate with either two-pipe or
four-pipe systems. A two-pipe system requires a changeover
input to the controller (hardware or network input).
Excel 10 FCU Controllers can operate with a variety of
actuators for heating and cooling equipment. Floating
actuators can be used; this requires that the valve run time be
specified during configuration of the controller.
The actuator runtimes can be configured in the range 20 sec
to 600 sec in steps of 1 second.
Valves will be synchronized by driving the valve fully closed
(150% of the valve run time) under the following conditions:
• whenever the control level reaches 0% or less;
• at power-on;
• whenever the occupancy status changes to a lower mode,
e.g., from occupied to standby or unoccupied;
• when synchronization has not taken place within the last
24 hours.
Once synchronization has been completed, the output control
will be returned to the normal control loop.
Valve action can be configured as either direct or reverse.
When in a two-pipe system with a changeover input, a floating
actuator can be used which has the middle position (50%) as
the zero energy position. The cool range is then 0 to 50% and
the heat range 50 to 100%. The output must be configured as
floating-mid.
Multi-stage systems can be controlled with up to three
different stages of heating/cooling control. Switching levels
are specified in % of control level (see Fig. 10) as is a
hysteresis setting which applies to all switching levels.
Heating and cooling switching levels and hysteresis are
specified separately. Min. OFF times can be configured, and
for one-, two- and three-stage systems, a min. ON time can
also be configured.
PWM electronic valves and thermal actuators can also be
connected and can be configured as either direct or reverse
action. The cycle time must be specified during configuration.
In the case of PWM valves, the zero and full positions must
also be configured.
Additionally, the W7754K1001 features an extra socket
(located to the left of the terminal blocks) containing a digital
output suitable for connection to a solid-state relay employed
for low-voltage PWM control in high-current electric reheat
applications.

Reheat Output
W7752D and F Controllers and the W7754P1000 have an
additional high-current (10 A max.; UL916: 6 A max.) output
relay to control an electric reheater (refer to Fig. 2 for sample
application). The reheat output has its own switching level and
hysteresis settings (see Fig. 11). The reheat relay may also
be used as an auxiliary output for other purposes, in which
case the controller must be configured to specify that the
output is under network control instead of the FCU control
algorithm.
Fig. 11. Reheat switching and hysteresis (defaults
shown)
Digital Input
The Excel 10 W7752 FCU Controllers are equipped with a
single digital input which may be configured to accommodate
an occupancy sensor, a window open/closed contact, an air
flow detector (for fan failure detection), or a changeover input.
It is possible to configure this input for either normally-open or
normally-closed contacts for any of the switches.
The control algorithm in the Excel 10 FCU Controller uses the
occupancy sensor, if configured, to determine the effective
occupancy mode (see Table 3). If the Time Of Day (TOD)
schedule indicates an occupied state, and the eccupancy
sensor contact is closed, the effective occupancy mode will be
"occupied". However, if the TOD schedule indicates an
occupied state and if the occupancy sensor contact is open,
then the effective occupancy mode will be "standby". The
control algorithm will then control according to the "standby"
setpoints configured for the heating and the cooling modes.
Configuring the digital input for movement or no movement
(dependent upon normally-open or normally-closed contacts)
adds a delay of 15 minutes to the occupancy sensor such that
the space is considered occupied until 15 minutes has
elapsed since the last movement is detected.
If the digital input is configured to read input from a window
open/closed contact, heating, cooling, and fan control will be
disabled while the window is detected open. Frost protection
will be enabled. A set of contacts may be wired in series for
multiple windows. If the window open/closed contact is not
configured, a one-to-one association (binding) of the window
sensor from another controller on the L
be made. A locally-wired contact can also be used in
combination with the network input, the result being a logical
OR of the inputs.
If the digital input is configured to read input from an air flow
detector (fan status), heating and cooling control will be
disabled for a fan failure (fan ON and no air flow detected).
The input may also be configured for changeover for a twopipe system.
The Excel 10 W7754 FCU Controllers are equipped with a
second digital input which is permanently assigned (i.e. not
configurable using the plug-in) to the window contact function.

Excel 10 Wall Module Options
A typical FCU installation will include an Excel 10 wall module
containing a 20k ohm NTC room temperature sensor and
additional features depending on the wall module type (see
Excel 10 wall module literature for further information).
Excel 10 FCU Controllers can use a return air sensor rather
than the sensor in the wall module if it is wired to the wall
module sensor input. Setpoint adjustments can be configured
as relative or absolute, and upper and lower limits can be set.
A configuration option for the fan speed switch allows it to be
disabled if not required. The bypass button can be configured
to override the control mode to "occupied" for a configurable
bypass time and to override the control mode to "unoccupied"
for an indefinite time, or it may be configured to only override
to "occupied". The button may also be used to cancel the
override.
Common Temperature Control (Master/Slave Controllers)
When one or more Excel 10 FCU Controllers serve a
common area and a single temperature sensor is to be used,
a master/slave arrangement can be configured. One Excel 10
FCU Controller is configured for the local wall module with the
desired options. The other Excel 10 FCU Controller(s) will be
configured without wall modules and with certain network
variables bound with the master controller. Refer to
Application Step 6 of this document for more details.
IMPORTANT
The slave units must have the same HVAC
equipment connected to it as the master units.
The slave units will not use any internal temperature
setpoints or control algorithms. The master controller
determines heating/cooling output based upon
setpoints and occupancy and L
ONWORKS network
command mode status and communicates this to the
slave via the L
ONWORKS network.

APPLICATION STEPS
Overview
Steps one through seven (see Table 8) address considerations for engineering an Excel 10 FCU System. These
steps are guidelines intended to aid understanding of the product I/O options, bus arrangement choices, configuration
options and the Excel 10 FCU Controllers’ role in the overall
EXCEL 5000
Step No.Description
Step 1. Plan the System
Plan the use of the FCU Controllers according to the job
requirements. Determine the location, functionality and sensor
or actuator usage. Verify the sales estimate of the number of
FCU Controllers and wall modules required for each model
type. Also check the number and type of output actuators and
other accessories required.
When planning the system layout, consider potential expansion possibilities to allow for future growth. Planning is
very important to be prepared for adding HVAC systems and
controllers in future projects.

IMPORTANT
Notes on Communications Wiring:
• All field wiring must conform to local codes and
ordinances.
• Do not use different wire types or gauges on the
same L
ONWORKS segment. The step change in
line impedance characteristics would cause
unpredictable reflections on the L
work. When using different types is unavoidable,
use a Q7751A Router at the junction.
• Do not use shielded cable for L
runs. The higher capacitance of the shielded
cable will cause degradation of communications
throughput. In noisy (high EMI) environments,
avoid wire runs parallel to noisy power cables, or
lines containing lighting dimmer switches, and
keep at least 3 in. (76 mm) of separation between
noisy lines and the L
• Make sure that neither of the L
grounded.

• All field wiring must conform to local codes and
ordinances.
• See Table 10 for permitted wire sizes.
• To minimize EMI noise, do not run Triac and/or
relay output wires in the same conduit as the
input wires or the L
ONWORKS communications
loop.
• To comply with CE requirements, in the case of
devices having a voltage range of 50 to 1000 Vac
or 75 and 1500 Vdc which are not provided with a
supply cord and a plug or with other means for
disconnection from the supply having a contact
separation of at least 3 mm in all poles, the
means for disconnection must be incorporated in
the fixed wiring.
Step 4. Prepare Wiring Diagrams
General Considerations
The purpose of this step is to assist the application engineer
in developing job drawings to meet job specifications.
NOTE: For field wiring, when two or more wires are to be
attached to the same connector block terminal, be
sure to twist them together. Deviation from this rule
can result in improper electrical contact.
