Introduction
This manual describes the sequences of operation for MicroTech controlled AAF-HermanNelson Unit V entilators equipped with chilled water cooling and electric hating, or chilled water cooling only. Unit Ventilators with these heating and cooling configurations could be AAF-HermanNelson models AVV, AVS, AHF or AHV. Regardless of
General Information
Software ID
The Unit Ventilator Controller software must be compatible with the Unit V entilator heating and cooling configuration. The softw are is identified by a program code and “software model” number printed on a small label attached to the controller. Models AVV, AVS, AHF, or AHV with chilled water cooling only or both chilled water cooling and electric heating use program UV7***. The first wild card character defines the UVC communication type as follows: S = stand-alone , M = master/slav e, and N = network code. The last two wild card char acters denote the software version (numeric) and revision lev el (alphabetical) respectiv ely . Progr am UV7*** comprises four software models: MDL15 through MDL18. Each software model is for a diff erent unit configuration. Refer to Table 1.

Setpoints
Most UVC setpoints are either “hardware” or “software” adjustable. Hardware adjustable means there is an on-board potentiometer used for adjustment. Software adjustable means a PC equipped with Monitor software and proper cable connection is required to make an adjustment. Default software adjustable v alues are shown on the sequence charts. Hardware adjustable values sho wn on the charts are for example only. Several UVC setpoints are defined b y offsets relative to other setpoints. Table 2 summarizes these setpoints and offsets.

Control T emperature
In order to maintain more stable room temperature control, the MicroTech Unit Ventilator Controller (UVC) uses the concept of a “Control Temperature.” During the occupied or tenant override operating modes, the Control T emperature is a weighted v alue equal to 19/20 room temperature and 1/20 discharge air temperature. During the unoccupied operating mode, the Control Temperature is set equal to the room temperature.

Occupied or Tenant Override Operating Mode
The supply fan will run continually in the occupied or tenant override operating modes.
When the UVC is first energized it will perform a self-calibration procedure upon the OA damper and valv e actuators. The calibr ation procedure will take approximately 5-minutes to perf orm during which time the supply fan will not operate.
An outdoor air lockout setpoint has been provided to force the OA damper closed when the OA temperature goes below the OALO setpoint (software adjustable).The OALO setpoint must not be set below the freeze point of the liquid being used within the building water loop. In order to lower the OALO setpoint below the default value glycol must be added to the building water loop in sufficient concentration to ensure freezing will not occur. However, the O ALO setpoint can be lowered if steam heat is used.
If provided, the optional exhaust fan output will energize when the OA damper opens and de-energize when the OA damper closes.
If provided, the optional ventilation lock out feature can ov erride UVC temperature control and keep the OA damper closed as required.
If provided, the optional auxiliary heat output will operate a normally open device. The auxiliary output will energize (close the device) when the Control Temperature is above the OHS. The auxiliary output will de-energize (open the device) when the Control Temperature is
o
F below the OHS.
3 The same UVC output is used for both the auxiliary heat output
feature and the exhaust f an output f eature. Therefore, both features cannot be used together.
Note: When switching from unoccupied-to-occupied mode the OA damper will remain closed for the first 5-minutes of occupied operation.
Morning Start
If the space is cool and heating is required, the outdoor air (OA) damper will remain closed and room air will be circulated until the Control Temperature rises to within 3 will be opened to minimum position.
If the space is warm and cooling is required, the unit will operate as described in “Cooling Operation” below. If the outdoor air is not suitable for free cooling, the OA damper will remain closed until the Control Temperature falls to within 3 will be opened to minimum position.
Cooling Operation
When the Control Temperature is greater than the OHS setpoint and less than the VCS setpoint, the OA damper will be held at its minim um position setpoint (hardware adjustable). As the Control Temperature rises and cooling becomes necessary, the UVC will decide whether the outdoor air is suitable for free cooling by comparing the outdoor air temperature (dry bulb) to the VCLO setpoint.
If the OA temperature is less than or equal to the VCLO setpoint, the economizer will modulate as required to maintain the VCS setpoint (default = 2
o
F less than OCS). The Control Temperature will rise if the outdoor air is too warm to satisfy the cooling load. If the OA damper is more than 85% open, the chilled water valve will modulate as required to maintain the OCS setpoint.
If the OA temperature is warmer than the VCLO setpoint, the chilled water valve will modulate as required to maintain the OCS setpoint. The OA damper will be held to the minimum position setpoint, except when the Control Temperature is 3 unlikely situation, the OA damper will be closed.
As the Control Temperature falls, the chilled water valve will modulate closed. If the v alve is less than 15% open when the Control T emperature falls below the VCS setpoint, the OA damper will modulate closed.
Note: Regardless of the economizer state, its operation is subject to discharge air low limit control.

Unoccupied Operating Mode
The outdoor air damper will always be closed when the unit is in the unoccupied operating mode. The indoor fan will remain off when the unit is in the unoccupied operating mode unless heating or cooling are required (see note below).
Note: During the unoccupied mode, if the fan remains off continually for 60-minutes, it will start and run for 5-minutes.

Heating Operation
If the Control Temperature falls below the UHS setpoint, the fan will be energized and room air will be circulated.
The fan will be de-energized when the Control Temperature rises above the UHS setpoint.
Discharge Air Low Limit Control
There are two discharge air low limit functions: the “CW cooling” low limit and the “vent cooling” low limit. The vent cooling low limit function prevents the discharge air (D A) temperature from falling below the VCLL setpoint whenever chilled water cooling is not necessary; when chilled water cooling is necessary , the vent cooling low limit function is disabled. The CW cooling low limit function prevents the DA temperature from falling below the lower CWLL setpoint whene ver the unit is in the chilled water cooling mode (chilled water valv e > 15% open).
Vent Cooling Low Limit (CW Cooling Inactive)
If the DA temperature f alls below the VCLL setpoint, the OA damper will modulate toward fully closed. When the DA temper ature rises to the VCLL setpoint, normal operation will resume.
CW Low Limit (CW Cooling Active)
If the DA temperature falls below the CWLL setpoint, the chilled water valve will be closed.
If the DA temperature rises abov e the CWLL setpoint before the actual valve position is less than 15% open, normal operation will resume.
If the DA temperature remains below the CWLL setpoint until the actual valve position is less than 15% open (unlikely), the O A damper will be closed by the vent cooling low limit function (see above).
Safeties
Low Water Coil Leaving Air Temperature
A normally closed low temperature switch is provided to detect low leaving air temperature conditions on the indoor air coil. The low temperature switch cut out is 38 When the UVC detects the possibility of low leaving air temperatures for longer then 5-seconds (fixed), the following will occur:
The OA damper is closed
The chilled water valv e is opened to 25% if the DA temperature is above the VCLL setpoint
The chilled water valve is opened to 100% if the D A temperature is less than or equal to the VCLL setpoint
When the alarm conditions are gone, the fault will automatically reset.

If the OA temperature is less than or equal to the VCLO setpoint, the economizer will modulate as required to maintain the VCS setpoint (default = 2

If the OA temperature is warmer than the VCLO setpoint, the chilled water valve will modulate as required to maintain the OCS setpoint. The OA damper will be held to the minimum position setpoint, except when the Control Temperature is 3

unlikely situation, the OA damper will be closed. As the Control Temperature falls, the chilled water valve will modulate

Heating Operation
When the Control Temperature is greater than the OHS setpoint, and less than the VCS setpoint, the OA damper will be held at its minimum position setpoint.
If the Control Temperature falls below the OHS setpoint, the two or three (optional) stages of electric heat will be energized as required using a “stage-up” interstage delay timer (default = 30 seconds).
When the Control Temperature rises to the OHS setpoint, the electric heat stages will be de-energized using a “stage-down” interstage delay timer (default = 30 seconds).

Unoccupied Operating Mode
The outdoor air damper will always be closed when the unit is in the unoccupied operating mode.
The indoor fan will remain off when the unit is in the unoccupied operating mode unless heating or cooling are required (see note below).
Note: During the unoccupied mode, if the fan remains off continually for 60-minutes, it will start and run for 5-minutes.
Cooling Operation
If the Control Temperature rises to the UCS setpoint, the chilled water valve will be fully opened and the fan will be energized.
When the Control Temperature falls 1 fan will be de-energized. When it falls 2oF below the UCS setpoint, the valve will be closed.
Heating Operation
The fan will be energized when the Control T emper ature falls below the UHS setpoint. If the Control Temperature falls below the UHS setpoint, the two or three (optional) stages of electric heat will be energized as required using a “stage-up” interstage dela y timer (default = 30 seconds).
When the Control Temperature rises to 2 the electric heat stages will be de-energized using a “stage-down” interstage delay timer (default = 30 seconds). If the Control Temperature is between the stage-up and stage-down points, no staging action will occur.
The fan will be de-energized when the Control Temperature rises above the UHS setpoint; however, it is interlocked so that it will not stop before all electric heat stages are off.

Vent Cooling Low Limit (CW Cooling Inactive)
If the DA temperature falls below the VCLL setpoint, the following sequence will occur:
1. The OA damper modulates toward (or remains at) minimum position
2. If the actual OA damper position is less than or equal to the minimum setpoint, the electric heat will stage up as required to prevent the DA temperature from falling below the VCLL setpoint. The stage-up interstage dela y timer (default = 30 sec­onds) must expire bef ore each subsequent stage is energized
3. If the OA temperature is less than or equal to the VCLO setpoint and the DA temperature remains below the VCLL setpoint af­ter all electric heat stages have been energized (unlikely), the OA damper will be closed
If the DA temperature rises to the VCLL setpoint at any time, the above sequence will be executed in reverse until normal operation resumes. (Electric heat stages will be de-energiz ed using the stage­down interstage timer.)
Note: The vent cooling discharge air low limit function is disabled during the unoccupied mode.
CW Low Limit (CW Cooling Active)
If the DA temperature falls below the CWLL setpoint, the chilled water valve will be closed.
If the DA temperature rises above the CWLL setpoint bef ore the actual valve position is less than 15% open, normal operation will resume.
If the DA temperature remains below the CWLL setpoint until the actual valve position is less than 15% open (unlik ely), the vent cooling low limit function will be enabled (see above).
Safeties
Low Water Coil Leaving Air Temperature
A normally closed low temperature switch is provided to detect low leaving air temperature conditions on the indoor air coil. The low temperature switch cut out is 38 When the UVC detects the possibility of low leaving air temperatures for longer than 5-seconds (fixed), the following will occur:
The OA damper is closed
First stage of electric heat is energized (only with fan on)
The chilled water valve is closed
When the alarm conditions are gone, the fault will automatically reset.

F +/– 2 and the cut in is 45oF +/– 2.
Discharge Air Low Limit Control
There are two discharge air low limit functions: the “CW cooling” low limit and the “vent cooling” low limit. The v ent cooling low limit function prevents the discharge air (D A) temperature from falling below the VCLL setpoint whenever chilled water cooling is not necessary; when chilled water cooling is necessary , the vent cooling low limit function is disabled. The CW cooling low limit function prevents the DA temperature from falling below the lower CWLL setpoint whene ver the unit is in the chilled water cooling mode (chilled water valv e > 15% open).

Description of Operation
Definitions
Control T emperature
In order to maintain more stable room temperature control, the MicroTech Unit Ventilator Controller (UVC) uses the concept of a “Control Temperature.” During the occupied or tenant override operating modes, the Control Temperature is a weighted value equal to 19/20 room temperature and 1/20 discharge air temperature. During the unoccupied operating mode, the Control Temperature is set equal to the room temperature.

Program: UV7*** Software Model: MDL18
Occupied or Tenant Override Operating Mode
The supply fan will run continually in the occupied or tenant override operating modes.
When the UVC is first energized it will perform a self-calibration procedure upon the OA damper and the face-and-bypass damper actuators. The calibration procedure will take approximately 5­minutes to perform during which time the supply fan will not operate.
If enabled, and outdoor air lockout setpoint has been provided to force the OA damper to close when the OA temper ature goes below the OALO setpoint (software adjustable). This feature is typically used only on valve control h ydronic heat and/or h ydronic cool units. This feature is disabled by default in UV Models 16 and 18.
If provided, the optional ventilation lock out feature can ov erride UVC temperature control and keep the OA damper closed as required.
If provided, the optional exhaust fan output will energize when the OA damper opens and de-energize when the OA damper closes.
If provided, the optional auxiliary heat output will operate a normally open device. The auxiliary output will energize (close the device) when the Control Temperature is above the OHS. The auxiliary output will de-energize (open the device) when the Control Temperature is
o
3
F below the OHS.
The same UVC output is used for both the auxiliary heat output feature and the exhaust f an output f eature . Theref ore , both f eatures cannot be used together.
Note: When switching from unoccupied-to-occupied mode the OA damper will remain closed for the first 5-minutes of occupied operation.
Morning Start
If the space is cool and heating is required, the unit will operate as described in “Heating Operation” belo w. The outdoor air (OA) damper will remain closed until the Control Temperature rises to within 3 of the OHS setpoint. Then it will be opened to minimum position.
If the space is warm and cooling is required, the unit will operate as described in “Cooling Operation” below. If the outdoor air is not suitable for free cooling, the OA damper will remain closed until the Control Temperature falls to within 3
o
F of the OCS setpoint. Then it
will be opened to minimum position.
o
Cooling Operation
The cooling end-of-cycle (EOC) valve will be open whenever all electric heat stages are off.
When the Control Temperature is greater than the OHS setpoint and less than the VCS setpoint, the OA damper will be held at its minimum position setpoint (hardware adjustable). As the Control Temperature rises and cooling becomes necessar y, the UVC will decide whether the outdoor air is suitable for free cooling by comparing the outdoor air temperature (dry bulb) to the VCLO setpoint (default = 68
o
F).
If the OA temperature is less than or equal to the VCLO setpoint, the economizer will modulate as required to maintain the VCS setpoint (default = 2
o
F less than OCS). The Control Temperature will rise if the outdoor air is too warm to satisfy the cooling load. If the OA damper is more than 85% open, the face-and-bypass damper will modulate as required to maintain the OCS setpoint.
If the OA temperature is warmer than the VCLO setpoint, the face­and-bypass damper will modulate as required to maintain the OCS setpoint. The OA damper will be held to the minimum position setpoint, except when the Control T emper ature is 3
o
F or more above
the OCS. In this unlikely situation, the AO damper will be closed. As the Control Temperature falls, the face-and-bypass damper will
modulate toward bypass. If the f ace-and-bypass damper is less than 15% open to face when the Control Temperature falls below the VCS setpoint, the OA damper will modulate closed.
Note: Regardless of the economizer state, its operation is subject to discharge air low limit control.
Heating Operation
When the Control Temperature is greater than the OHS setpoint and less than the VCS setpoint, the OA damper will be held at its minimum position setpoint.
If the Control Temperature falls below the OHS setpoint, the two or three (optional) stages of electric heat will be energized as required using a “stage-up” interstage dela y timer (default = 30 seconds). When the first stage of heat is energized, the face-and-bypass damper will be fully opened to face and the cooling EOC valv e will be closed.
When the Control Temperature rises to the OHS setpoint, the electric heat stages will be de-energized using a “stage-down” interstage delay timer (default = 30 seconds). When the last stage of heat is de-energized, the face-and-bypass damper will modulate toward bypass and the cooling EOC valve will be opened.
The OA damper will maintain its minimum position when the Control Temperature is within 3
o
F of the OHS. If the Control Temperature
falls to 3oF or more below the OHS, the OA damper will be closed.
Unoccupied Operating Mode
The outdoor air damper will always be closed when the unit is in the unoccupied operating mode.
The indoor fan will remain off when the unit is in the unoccupied operating mode unless heating or cooling are required (see note below).
Note: During the unoccupied mode, if the fan remains off continually for 60-minutes, it will start and run for 5-minutes.
Cooling Operation
If the Control Temperature rises to the UCS setpoint, the face-and-

Heating Operation
The fan will be energized when the Control Temperature falls below the UHS setpoint. If the Control Temperature falls below the UHS setpoint, the two or three (optional) stages of electric heat will be energized as required using a “stage-up” interstage delay timer (default = 30 seconds). When the first stage of heat is energiz ed, the face-and-bypass damper will be fully opened to face.
When the Control Temperature rises to 2

If the Control Temperature is between the stage-up and stage-down points, no staging action will occur. When the last stage of heat is de-energiz ed, the face-and-bypass damper will modulate toward bypass.
The fan will be de-energized when the Control Temperature rises above the UHS setpoint; however, it is interlock ed so that it will not stop before all electric heat stages are off.
Discharge Air Low Limit Control
There are two discharge air low limit functions: the “CW cooling” low limit and the “vent cooling” low limit. The v ent cooling low limit function prevents the discharge air (D A) temperature from falling below the VCLL setpoint whenever chilled w ater cooling is not necessary; when chilled water cooling is necessary , the vent cooling low limit function is disabled. The CW cooling low limit function prevents the DA temperature from falling below the lower CWLL setpoint whene ver the unit is in the chilled water cooling mode (face-and-bypass damper > 15% open to face).
Vent Cooling Low Limit (CW Cooling Inactive)
If the DA temperature falls below the VCLL setpoint, the following sequence will occur:
1. The OA damper modulates toward (or remains at) minimum
position
2. If the actual OA damper position is less than or equal to the
minimum setpoint, the electric heat will stage up as required to prevent the D A temperature from falling belo w the VCLL setpoint. The stage-up interstage delay timer (default = 30 seconds) m ust
expire before each subsequent stage is energized. When the first stage is heat is energized, the face-and-bypass damper will be fully opened to face and the cooling EOC valv e will be closed
3. If the OA temperature is less than or equal to the VCLO setpoint
Certified Drawing
and the DA temperature remains below the VCLL setpoint af­ter all electric heat stages have been energized (unlikely), the OA damper will be closed
If the DA temperature rises to the VCLL setpoint at any time, the above sequence will be executed in reverse until normal operation resumes. (Electric heat stages will be de-energiz ed using the stage­down interstage timer.)
Note: The vent cooling discharge air low limit function is disabled during the unoccupied mode.
CW Low Limit (CW Cooling Active)
If the DA temperature falls below the CWLL setpoint, the face-and­bypass damper will be closed to face.
If the DA temperature rises above the CWLL setpoint before the actual face-and-b ypass damper position is less than 15% open to face, normal operation will resume.
If the DA temperature remains below the CWLL setpoint until the actual face-and-bypass damper position is less than 15% open to face (unlikely), the vent cooling low limit function will be enab led (see above).
Brownout
If the UV detects low line voltage conditions that persist for at least 10 seconds (2 seconds for electric heat), all electric heat stages will be immediately de-energized and the “Brownout” fault will be indicated. The brownout alarm setpoint is equivalent to appro ximately 85% of the nameplate voltage value.
The brownout fault will automatically reset when the line voltage remains at or above 90% of the nameplate v alue for at least 5 minutes.
Note: The four brownout parameters above are PC adjustable; however, it is recommended that they not be changed.
