Sec tion 5: Balan c i n g airf l o w

Topics in this section are for control technicians or engineers who will be balancing the airflow in the controllers.
The airflow balancing procedure described in this section requires the following items.
l A flow hood or other accurate method to measure airflow.
l An STE-8001 orSTE-8201 wall sensor. If the system does not include one of these
sensors, temporarily disconnect the installed sensor and connect an STE-8001 as a service tool.
l The engineering design specifications for the minimum and maximum airflow
setpoints.
l Password 2 which is described in the topic Getting started with configuration on
page 21.
Note: If the VAV unit is a heat only or cooling only unit, the airflow setpoints for the unused mode
must be set within the range of the mode in use. Failure to set the unused setpoints correctly will result in unpredictable or erroneous air balancing settings. See Set the
airflow setpoints on page 29 for the procedure to adjust the setpoints.
Note: Starting the balancing procedure erases all previous airflow correction factors. The airflow
readings displayed by the digital sensor are the actual uncorrected airflow readings as measured by the controller.
Tip: Once the following procedure is started, all steps must be completed in order.

Sec tion 7: Seq u e nces of operat ion

Topics in this section cover the sequences of operation forthe SimplyVAV controllers. These are advanced topics for control technicians and engineers.
These sequences of operation are descriptions of each major component of the SimplyVAV programming. They are provided as an aid to understanding on how the controllers operate.
This section covers the following sequences of operation.
Input sources 49 Occupancy sequence 50 Space setpoints 51 PID control loops 52 Airflow setpoints sequence 53 Changeover 53 Discharge Air Temperature (DAT) limiting 53 System diagnostic indicators 54 Damper operation 55 Fan operation 56 Reheat sequence 57 Balancing airflow sequence 60 Dual duct 61

Input sources

The SimplyVAV controllers require specific sensors to measure room temperature, airflow, and discharge air temperature. All sensors are automatically detected and the programming is automatically set up for the sensors.
l SimplyVAV digital wall sensors
l STE-6000 series discreet temperature sensors
l Discharge air temperature sensor
l Airflow sensors and pickups
SimplyVAV digital wall sensors—The SimplyVAV digital wall sensors include a room temperature sensor, a digital display, and a push button interface for entering setpoints and configuring the controllers. If a SimplyVAV digital wall sensor is detected, the sensor's temperature is mapped to the Space Temperature Reference value object as the temperature input value. See the topic BACnet objects on page 67 foradditional information on value objects.
The SimplyVAV digital wall sensor model BAC-8201 includes also a motion sensor to detect when the zone is temporary unoccupied. This is described in the topic Occupancy
sequence on page 50.
Revision H 49
Page 50
Section 7: Sequences of operation KMC Controls, Inc.
STE-6000 series discreet temperature sensors—There are three models of the STE-6000 series sensors compatible with the SimplyVAV controllers. If one of the three sensors is detected, the sensor's temperature is mapped to the Space Temperature Reference value object as the temperature input value. See the topic BACnet objects on page 67 for additional information on value objects.
Models STE-6014 and STE-6017 also include a dial for adjusting the setpoint . If either of these two sensors is detected, the dial position sets the Active setpoint a few degrees above or below the Occupied setpoint.
The STE-6017 includes a button that when pushed will override the unoccupied state. This is described in the topic Occupancy sequence on page 50.
Discharge air temperature sensor—The DAT sensor is an optional Type-III, 10 kΩ thermistor and is required forVAV heating applications. If the controller detects that this sensor is connected, then the controller will use discharge air temperature to determine when to change between heating and cooling. The DAT sensor input is used also to control reheat. See the topics Discharge Air Temperature (DAT) limiting on page 53 and
Changeover on page 53.
Airflow sensors and pickups—VAV airflow is calculated by measuring the high and low duct pressures with the built-in airflow sensor which is connected to airflow pickup tubes. The high and low pressure measurements along with the K-factor of the VAV terminal unit are used to calculate the airflow through the VAV unit.

Occupancy sequence

A SimplyVAV controller is designed to operate as a stand-alone controller and determine occupancy based only on the availability of primary airflow and motion in the zone. The controller can be in any one of the following occupancy states.
l Occupied on page 50
l Unoccupied
l Standby
Occupancy can also be commanded by another BACnet device or an operator workstation connected the building automation network. See the topic System integration and
networking on page 63 for details.

Automatic occupancy

If Automatic Occupancy is enabled, the controller will automatically toggle between Unoccupied, Occupied, and Standby based on the presence of primary airflow and motion in the zone.
The default for Automatic Occupancy is Disabled. See the topic Advanced optionson
page 33 to change Automatic Occupancy.

Occupied

For controllers without a connected motion sensor, the controller changes to Occupied upon the detection of primary airflow.
50 Revision H
Page 51
SimplyVAV Section 7: Sequences of operation
Controllers with a connected motion sensor change to Occupied upon the detection of primary airflow and motion in the space. The unit will remain in the OCCUPIED state as long as periodic motion is detected and primary airflow continues. If motion stops, the controller changes to STANDBY.

Unoccupied

The controller Occupancy mode changes to UNOCCUPIED when it detects a loss of primary airflow. While in the UNOCCUPIED state, the controller will fully open the damper in an attempt to reach the maximum airflow setpoint.
Loss of primary airflow is defined as less than 25% of the requested flow for at least 5 minutes. The Occupancy mode changes to Occupied or Standby once the actual airflow is at least 30% of the requested flow.

Standby

In units with a connected motion sensor, the controller starts in STANDBY and changes to OCCUPIED after detecting motion in the space. Motion in the space is defined as two
movements detected within 5 minutes. The controller will change back to STANDBY after a lack a lack of motion for the period specified by the variable Standby Time.
Standby mode is not valid for controllers without a motion sensor, unless commanded by a building management system.

Space setpoints

There are fourtemperature setpoints each for heating and cooling for a total of eight setpoints.
l Active cooling
l Occupied cooling
l Unoccupied cooling
l Standby cooling

Types of setpoints

The SimplyVAV controllers may use any of the following setpoints based on a user entered setpoint or the state of occupancy and standby which is described in the topic Occupancy
sequence on page 50.
l Active heating
l Occupied heating
l Unoccupied heating
l Standby heating
Revision H 51
Page 52
Section 7: Sequences of operation KMC Controls, Inc.
Active setpoint—The active setpoint is the current setpoint. The active setpoint is determined by the following.
l If the space is occupied, the controller uses the occupied setpoint as the active
setpoint.
l If an STE-6014 and STE-6017 is connected, the Active setpoint is set by the dial to be a
few degrees above or below the Occupied setpoint. The range of adjustment is set by the variable STBY OFFSET. The dial setting does not change the setpoint when in the Unoccupied or Standby state.
l If the space is unoccupied the controller uses the unoccupied setpoint as the active
setpoint.
l If controller is in standby, the controller calculates the standby setpoint.
l A user with Password 1 can enter an active setpoint from a SimplyVAV digital wall
sensor. This entry will change the occupied setpoint within the setpoint limits.
Occupied setpoint—A temperature setpoint entered by the controls technician during controller setup and system commissioning. This is the setpoint used when the controller is occupied which is determined by primary airflow and, on controllers equipped with motion sensors, motion in the zone.
Unoccupied setpoint—A temperature setpoint entered by the controls technician during controller setup and system commissioning. This is the setpoint used when the system is unoccupied .
Standby setpoint—The standby setpoint is used when the controller is in the standby state. It is a value calculated from the occupied setpoint and the variable STBY OFFSET. The standby offset value is entered by the controls technician during controller setup and system commissioning. See the topic Occupancy sequence on page 50.

Setpoint limits

The programming in the controller limits the setpoint entry so that no heating setpoint is set higher than its corresponding cooling setpoint.
If a user is adjusting a setpoint and it falls within the range set by the value of Minimum Setpoint Differential, the corresponding setpoint will be changed to maintain the differential. For example, the Minimum Setpoint Differential is 4°F and the Occupied Heating setpoint is 70°F. If the user lowers the Occupied Cooling setpoint to 71°F, the controller recalculates the Occupied Heating setpoint and changes it to 67°F.

PID control loops

A PID control loop calculates an error value from the difference between the measured room temperature and the active setpoint. The error value is expressed as a percentage and is typically used in a BAS controller to control the state of an output. When the difference between the setpoint and room temperature is large, the erroris large. As the system reduces the difference between the setpoint and space temperature, the error becomes smaller.
52 Revision H
Page 53
SimplyVAV Section 7: Sequences of operation
The SimplyVAV controllers use up to three PID loops.
l The heating PID loop.
l The cooling PID loop.
l The discharge air temperature (DAT) loop.
For SimplyVAV controllers, the output of either the cooling and heating PID loop is used to calculate the position of the damper. If present, the DAT input and DAT loop controls the Reheat loop.
The PID loops in the SimplyVAV controllers are standard BACnetobjects and are described in the topic BACnet objects on page 67.

Airflow setpoints sequence

Airflow Setpoint is calculated based on the demand for cooling or heating depending on whether the Cooling loop or Heating loop is greater than zero.
If no room sensor is connected to the controller, the controller uses the Minimum Cooling Airflow setpoint to maintain airflow.
Cool Air Sequence
As the Cooling loop increases from 0% to 100%, Primary Airflow Setpoint is proportionally calculated between Minimum Cooling Airflow and Maximum Cooling Airflow.
If there is a call for reheat to maintain room temperature, the primary airflow is set to the value of Auxiliary Flow.
Warm Air Available
In the heating mode, as the Heating Loop increases from 0% to 100%, Primary Airflow Setpoint is proportionally calculated between Minimum Heating Airflow and Maximum Heating Airflow.
See also the topics, Changeover on page 53 and Input sources on page 49.

Changeover

The Discharge Air Temperature input is used by the controller to determine the type of air that is being supplied by the AHU. The sensor is required for applications that require automatic change over between cooling and heating.
When the Heating loop is inactive, the Discharge Air Temperature input is compared to the SAT Changeover Temp. If the Discharge Air Temperature is below the SAT Changeover Temp minus 2°, the SAT Changeover Mode is set to COOL. If the Discharge Air Temperature is above the SAT Changeover Temp plus 2° Fahrenheit, the SAT Changeover Mode is set to HEAT. The default changeover temperature is 74° Fahrenheit.
See the topic Discharge Air Temperature (DAT) limiting on page 53 and Input sources
on page 49.

Discharge Air Temperature (DAT) limiting

A Discharge Air Temperature senor and DAT limiting is required to control VAV units with reheat. If a Discharge Air Temperature (DAT) sensor is detected and DAT Limiting is

enabled, the VAV terminal will be controlled by the DAT loop. The unit will also limit the Discharge Air Temperature to within 15° F of the Space Temp Reference.
When there is a call for heat and the primary air is cool air, the reheat outputs are directly controlled by the DAT Loop and the DAT Setpoint reset based on the output of the Heating loop. As the Heating loop increases from 0% to 50%, DAT Setpoint is proportionally calculated between Space Temp Reference and Space Temp Reference + 15° F up to maximum 90° F. This allows the reheat to be controlled by the DAT loop over the first 50% of a call for heating.
Illustration 7–1 DAT limiting operation
If DAT Limiting is enabled, and a DAT sensor is not connected, the controller will lockout reheat control only in the cooling mode. The unit will operate this way until a DAT sensor is detected or until the unit is commanded to control to the Active Heating Setpoint by a supervisory BMS.
If the unit has detected a DAT sensor and DAT Limiting is not enabled, the unit’s reheat is controlled by the Heating loop instead of the DAT loop.
See also the topics Changeover on page 53 and Input sources on page 49.

System diagnostic indicators

The controller programming includes four system diagnostic indicators in the form of BACnet value objects.
l NEED AHU (BV1)
l NEED COLDER SUPPLY (BV2)
l NEED MORE STATIC (BV3)
l NEED HOTTER SUPPLY (BV7)
These diagnostic indicators or flags are monitored by other BACnet devices, such as air handling units, connected to the same building automation system as the controller. How the indicators are used is beyond the scope of these instructions.
54 Revision H
Page 55
SimplyVAV Section 7: Sequences of operation

NEED AHU (BV1)

The Need AHU Start value object is set to TRUE (1) for any of the following conditions.
l The system mode is UNOCCUPIED and the Cooling loop or the Heating loop is
greater than 100%for longer than 10 minutes.
l The system mode is OCCUPIED or STANDBY.
l Either of the Motion Override or Local Override variable objects are TRUE (1).
The Need for AHU Start object changes to FALSE (0) when both loops drop below 5% and the system mod is not OCCUPIED or STANDBY and both override variable objects are FALSE (0).

NEED COLDER SUPPLY (BV2)

The Need Colder Supply value object is set to TRUE (1) when the system mode is STANDBY or OCCUPIED and the Cooling loop is greater than 95% for 30 minutes. The
indicator changes to FALSE (0) when the Cooling loop falls below 90% orwhen the system mode is UNOCCUPIED.

NEED MORE STATIC (BV3)

The Need More Static value object is set to TRUE (1) when the controller has attempted to drive the damper fully open for longer than 2 minutes 30 seconds and any of the following are TRUE (1).
l The system mode is OCCUPIED or STANDBY.
l Either of the Motion Override or Local Override variable objects are TRUE (1).
When any of these conditions are no longer true, the indicator changes to FALSE (0).

NEED HOTTER SUPPLY (BV7)

The Need Warmer Supply value object is set to TRUE (1) when the system mode is STANDBY or OCCUPIED and the Heating loop is greater than 95% for 30 minutes. The
indicator changes to FALSE (0) when the Heating loop falls below 90% or when the system mode is no longer OCCUPIED.

Damper operation

Damper movement is determined by comparing the actual airflow reading to the airflow setpoints. If the actual airflow is within 5% of the setpoint, no damper action is initiated. Once within the 5% deadband, the actual airflow must be outside a 7% deadband before damper position changes.
To improve stability near setpoint, the damper motor is pulsed when the actual flow rate is within 15% of the requested flow rate. The pulse rate is 5 seconds and the duty cycle is controlled by analog variable MOTOR PAUSE. In addition, the motor will pause for 10 seconds before the damper changes direction.

Fan operation

The SimplyVAV controllers support both series and parallel fan powered VAV units. For either type of fan operation, the fan is controlled through the following terminals.
l A binary outputtriac controls a 24-volt fan starting circuit. See the topic Configuring
the VAV Box optionson page 27 for the procedure to configure the controller for a
fan.
l A 0-10 volt DC analog output controls the speed of the fan. The output controls fan
speed at either Min Fan Speed or Max Fan Speed. See the topic Set the airflow
setpoints on page 29 forthe procedure to set the fan speeds.
If the VAV unit is not configured for a fan, the two outputs are not used and remain inactive regardless of the occupancy state.

Series Fan

If the controller is configured for a series fan, any time the Occupancy mode of the controller is set to either OCCUPIED or STANDBY, the fan runs continuously. The fan speed is set to Maximum Fan Speed when the state is OCCUPIED and set to Minimum Fan Speed when the state is STANDBY.
When the Occupancy state is UNOCCUPIED, the fan starts and runs at minimum speed only on a call for heating. The fan starts when the Heating loop is greater than 5% and stops when the Heating loop is less than 1%.
Illustration 7–2 Series fan operation

Parallel Fan

If the controller is configured for a parallel fan, any time the Occupancy mode of the controller is set to either OCCUPIED or STANDBY and there is a call for heat, the fan runs continuously. The fan starts when the Heating loop is greater than 5% and stops when the Heating loop is less than 1%.

Reheat sequence

The SimplyVAV controllers can control four types of reheat installations.
l Modulating reheat
l Staged reheat
l Time proportioned reheat
l Floating reheat
All reheat is controlled by either the Heating loop or the Discharge Air Temp Limiting (DAT) PID loop. Loops are described in the topic PID control loops on page 52.
l If Discharge Air Temp Limiting is enabled, reheat is controlled by the DAT PID loop.
l If DAT control is not enabled, reheat is controlled by the Heating loop.
In the following descriptions, the loop controlling reheat is referred to as the Reheat loop.

Modulating reheat

If the controller is configured for modulating reheat, it controls an analog reheat unit with 0­10 volts DC at the analog reheat output. On a call for reheat, the reheat output is modulated over the span of the Reheat loop. If the Reheat loop is less than 10%, the reheat output remains at zero. The reheat is set to zero if the Cooling loop is active.
See the topic Modulating reheat on page 44 for an application drawing.
Illustration 7–4 Modulating reheat operation

Staged reheat

If the controller is configured for staged reheat, it can control up to three stages of reheat through binary triac outputs. The reheat outputs are commanded On when the Reheat loop rises above the ON threshold and OFF when the loop drops below the OFF threshold. Thresholds are described in the following chart, Staged reheat thresholds on page 58.
See the topic Staged reheat on page 43 for an application drawing.

Time proportioned reheat

For controllers configured for time proportional reheat, the duty cycle of a binary triac output varies over a 10 second period. For example, if the Reheat loop is at 50%, the reheat output is ON for 5 seconds and OFF for 5 seconds. If the Reheat loop is less than 10%, the reheat output remains at zero.
See the topic Time proportional reheat on page 45 for an application drawing.
Illustration 7–5 Time proportional reheat operation

Floating reheat

If the controller is configured for floating reheat, it controls two binary triac outputs to drive the inputs of a tri-state actuator connected to a valve. If the Reheat loop is less than 30%, the valve is driven closed. If the loop is greater than 70%, the valve is driven open. If the loop is in between 30% and 70%, no valve action is taken.
See the topic Floating reheat on page 46 for an application drawing.

Balancing airflow sequence

Balancing airflow is the process of calibrating the internal airflow sensor to a known standard. In the field, airflow is measured with an airflow hood orother measuring instrument and then compared to the airflow measurements from the sensor in the controller. The balancing process requires an STE-8001 or STE-8201 digital sensor as the technicians setup tool for initiating the balancing sequence and entering actual flow measurements.
When the balancing sequence starts, all other functions of the controller are locked out.
At the start of the sequence, the controller drives the damper open until the airflow reaches the highest value of either the cooling or heating maximum airflow setpoints. An airflow measurement is made with an airflow hood and the actual airflow value is entered into the controller. Once the actual airflow is entered, the controller drives the damper closed to the lower value of either the cooling or heating minimum airflow. Another measurement is made with the flow hood and that measurement is entered into the controller.
After the minimum airflow measurement is entered, the programming in the controller calculates airflow correction factors which are used to adjust measurements from the internal airflow sensor. Balancing is complete and the controller is returned to normal operation.
See the topic Balancing airflow on page 37 for the procedure to balance the airflow with a digital sensor.

Dual duct
A dual duct installation consists of separate primary heating and cooling ducts, both with control dampers and airflow monitoring. For this type of installation a SimplyVAV BAC-8007 controls the cooling air (primary)damper and a TSP-8001 actuator controls the heating air (secondary) damper.
l As the space temperature rises above the cooling setpoint, the primary airflow is
modulated from the Cooling Minimum flow to the Cooling Maximum Flow.
l As the space temperature falls below the heating setpoint, the secondary airflow is
modulated from the Heating Minimum flow to the Heating Maximum Flow.
l Between the heating and cooling setpoints, both the primary airflow and secondary
airflow are modulated to maintain the Dual Duct Minimum airflow.

Sec tion 8: System int egration an d networki ng

Topics in this section cover integrating the controllers into a building automation network. These are advanced reference topics for control technicians and engineers.
The controllers can be installed as standalone controllers or they can be connected to a BACnet MS/TP network. The topics in this section are reference material for control technicians or engineers who are planning, installing, and setting up controllers that are connected to a network.
In addition to the information in this section, you will also need the following information.
l Detailed plans and drawings for the building automation system.
l Information about the facility LAN including routers, switches, and network firewalls.
l Sequences of operation forother BACnet devices that will monitor orinteract with
SimplyVAV controllers.
Integration topics

Connecting to an MS/TP network

SimplyVAV controllers are BACnet MS/TP compliant controllers. Connect them only to a BACnet MS/TP network.
To enter the BACnet device instance, MAC address, and network baud, see the topic
Setting up network communications on page 65.
Illustration 8–1 MS/TP network wiring and EOLswitches
Revision H 63
Page 64
Section 8: System integration and networking KMC Controls, Inc.

Connections and wiring

Use the following principles when connecting a controller to an MS/TP network:
l Connect no more than 128 addressable BACnet devices to one MS/TP network. The
devices can be any mix of controllers or routers.
l For best network performance, limit the MS/TP network size to 32 controllers.
l Use twisted pair, shielded cable with capacitance of no more than 51picofarads per
foot for all network wiring. Belden cable model #82760 meets the cable requirements.
l Connect the -A terminal in parallel with all other - terminals.
l Connect the +B terminal in parallel with all other + terminals.
l Connect the shields of the cable together at each mid line controller. For SimplyVAV
controllers use the S terminal.
l Connect the shield to an earth ground at one end only.
l Use a KMD–5575 repeater if the cable length will exceed 4000 feet (1220 meters). Use
no more than four repeaters per MS/TP network.
l Place a KMD–5567 surge suppressor in the cable where it exits a building.

End of line termination switches

The controllers on the physical ends of the EIA-485 wiring segment must have end of line termination added for proper network operation.
l For controllers at the end of the networkset the EOL switches to On
l For mid line controllers at the end of the network set the EOL switches to Off

Network bulbs

SimplyVAVcontrollers include network bulbs located near the MS/TP network connector. These bulbs serve three functions:
l Removing both bulbs will disconnect the controller from the MS/TP network.
l If one or both bulbs are lit, it indicates the network connection or controller power is not
properly wired.
l If the voltage or current on the network exceeds safe levels, the bulbs may open and
protect the controller from damage.
Bulbs are illuminated If one or both bulbs are illuminated, it indicates the network is not
phased correctly. The ground potential of the controller is not the same as other controllers on the network. The brighter the isolation bulbs on a controller are illuminated, the closer that controller is to the source of the problem. Remove power and check the network and power connections.
