Dual Digital Module
Module Overview
Overview
The Dual Digital Module (OE370-23-DD-C) is a device that enables and
modulates two digital compressors on HVAC Units controlled by the
VCM-X Modular Controller (OE332-23-VCMX-MOD-C) or VCM-X
Modular E-BUS Controller (OE332-23E-VCMX-MOD-C). The Dual
Digital Module will control the digital compressors to satisfy the cooling,
dehumidifi cation, and heat pump requirements of the VCM-X Modular
series controller.
If the Dual Digital Module is in the Cooling Mode or Heat Pump Heating Mode, it will modulate the compressors to maintain the appropriate
Supply Air Temperature Setpoint. If the module is in the Dehumidifi ca-
tion Mode, it will modulate compressors to maintain the Coil Suction
Temperature Setpoint. If the module is in the Heat Pump Heating Mode,
the module can also monitor a signal for a Defrost Cycle from the VCMX Modular series controller if a T wo Condenser Head Pressure Module
(OE370-23-HP2C) is also installed.
The Dual Digital Module must be used in conjunction with the VCMX Modular Controller. The Dual Digital Module is connected to the
VCM-X Modular Controller using the E-BUS Distribution Module
(OE365-23-EBD). The Dual Digital Module can also be directly connected to the the VCM-X Modular E-BUS Controller. Either connection
allows the Dual Digital Module to receive setpoints and monitor the
Supply Air Temperature from the VCM-X Modular series controller.
The Dual Digital Module requires a 24 VAC power connection with an
appropriate VA rating.
NOTE: The Dual Digital Module contains no user-serviceable
parts. Contact qualifi ed technical personnel if your mod-
ule is not operating correctly.

Dual Digital Module
Installation and Wiring
Environmental Requirements
The Dual Digital Module needs to be installed in an environment which
can maintain a temperature range between -30°F and 150°F and not
exceed 90% RH levels (Non-Condensing).
Mounting
The Dual Digital Module is housed in a plastic enclosure. It is designed
to be mounted by using the 3 mounting holes in the enclosure base. It is
important to mount the module in a location that is free from extreme high
or low temperatures, moisture, dust, and dirt. Be careful not to damage
the electronic components when mounting the module.
See Figure 2 for Module dimensions (dimensions are in inches).
Power Supply and Communications
The Dual Digital Module is connected to the E-BUS Distribution
Module with a modular HSSC cable to provide communications from
the VCM-X Modular Controller. The E-BUS Distribution Module uses
WattMaster Control’s standard I
VCM-X Modular Controller, VCM-X Expansion Module, or 12-Relay
Expansion Module.
The Dual Digital Module can also be directly connected to the VCM-X
Modular E-BUS Controller, bypassing the use of the E-BUS Distribution Module.
The Dual Digital Module requires a 24 VAC power connection with an
appropriate VA rating.
WARNING: Observe polarity! All boards must be wired
GND-to-GND and 24 VAC-to-VAC. Failure to
observe polarity could result in damage to the
boards.

Installation and Wiring
Important Wiring Considerations
Please carefully read and apply the following information when wiring
the Dual Digital Module:
1. The 1 to 5 VDC signals for the Copeland Compressor
Speed need to use 18-gauge shielded twisted pair cable, and
the Drain wire must be the GND signal.
2. All 24 VAC wiring must be connected so that all ground
wires remain common. Failure to follow this procedure can
result in damage to the module and connected devices.
3. All wiring is to be in accordance with local and
national electrical codes and specifi cations.

4. Be sure that all wiring connections are properly inserted
and tightened into the terminal blocks. Do not allow wire
strands to stick out and touch adjoining terminals. This
could potentially cause a short circuit.
5. Be sure all modular wiring harness connectors are seated
fi rmly in their respective modular connectors on the circuit
board.
NOTE: The Compressor Relays on the Dual Digital Module
are used rather than the relay outputs on the VCM-X
Modular series controller.
WARNING: Be sure all controllers and modules are
powered down before connecting or
disconnecting HSSC cables.
