General Notes

1. When any change is made to a parameter, the value is automatically saved in memory when the next parameter is selected or another page is opened.

2. Arrows auto-increment/decrement at higher speed when holding button for more than 0.5 second.

3. All objects related to humidity do not display on HMI when Controller is ordered without built-in humidity sensor.

LUA GENERIC PARAMETERS

The LUA settings include six generic parameters that do not have predeﬁned values. These can be used to represent LUA script variables. They are user conﬁgurable in their default state, but when they are assigned a value by a LUA script they become read only, and the display colour of the parameter changes to red. These parameters are also modiﬁable through BACnet as Analog Values (AVs). These parameters can be conﬁgured to receive information from ZigBee sensors.

Prop. band

Default value: 3

Proportional Band Setting

Adjusts proportional band used by the Terminal Equipment Controller PI control loop.

Note: default value of 3.0 gives satisfactory operation in

most normal installation cases. The use of a superior proportional band different than the factory one is normally warranted in applications where Terminal Equipment Controller location is problematic and leads to unwanted cycling of the unit. A typical example is a wall mounted unit where Terminal Equipment Controller is installed between return and supply air feeds and is directly inﬂuenced by the supply air stream of unit.

Setpoint Adjustment for Heating Mode

In automatic mode, setpoint showing at the top of the set point bar located directly under the blue line represents the actual occupied cooling setpoint.

During occupied setpoints adjustment, large digits are temporarily used to display the occupied Cooling Setpoint or occupied Heating Setpoint. The actual setpoint is dependent on the last effective demand (heating or cooling). The setpoint on top of the red line represents the actual occupied heating setpoint. The differential between the occupied heating and cooling setpoint is deﬁned by the minimum deadband conﬁguration parameter.

Normal temperature display resumes after setpoints are adjusted and the actual occupied heating and cooling setpoints show in the setpoint bar.

The Model Number is the BACnet® device name automatically assigned when using the current BACnet® addressing scheme based on the MAC address. The network can update and change the device BACnet® name. If changed, the new updated BACnet® device name shows on the screen.

For example, when a VT8300U5500B thermostat with a MAC address of 41 is connected to a network, its default Device Name is VT8300U5x00B-41 and its default BACnet Device ID is 83041.

the status background shows in red. After any output state is overridden, the command is cancelled after 1 minute of screen inactivity (auto exit to main screen) or when page is exited. Refer to the BACnet® integration guide for more details.

Note 3: Use high caution when manually enabling outputs so as to not cause damage to equipment. It is the responsibility of the Installer or Service Contractor to insure safe operation during usage.
