are represented in the START INHIBIT TIMER and can be
viewed on the MAINSTAT screen and DEFAULT screen. The
timer must expire before the chiller will start. If the timers have
not expired the RUN STATUS parameter on the MAINSTAT
screen now reads TIMEOUT.
NOTE: The time schedule is said to be "occupied" if the
OCCUPIED ? parameter on the MAINSTAT screen is set to
YES. For more information on occupancy schedules, see the
sections on Time Schedule Operation (page 27), Occupancy
Schedule (page 47), and To Prevent Accidental Start-Up
(page 87), and Fig. 22.
If the OCCUPIED ? parameter on the MAINSTAT screen
is set to NO, the chiller can be forced to start as follows. From
the default ICVC screen, press the
softkeys. Scroll to highlight MAINSTAT. Press the
softkey. Scroll to highlight CHILLER START/STOP. Press
the
softkey to override the schedule and start the
START
chiller.
NOTE: The chiller will continue to run until this forced start is
released, regardless of the programmed schedule. To release
the forced start, highlight CHILLER START/STOP from the
MAINSTAT screen and press the
action returns the chiller to the start and stop times established
by the schedule.
The chiller may also be started by overriding the time
schedule. From the default screen, press the
and
softkeys. Scroll down and select the current
SCHEDULE
schedule. Select OVERRIDE, and set the desired override
time.
Another condition for start-up must be met for chillers that
have the REMOTE CONTACTS OPTION on the EQUIP-
MENT SERVICE screen set to ENABLE. For these chillers,
the REMOTE START CONTACT parameter on the MAIN-
STAT screen must be CLOSED. From the ICVC default
screen, press the
and
MENU
highlight MAINSTAT and press the
down the MAINSTAT screen to highlight REMOTE START
CONTACT and press the
the
softkey. To end the override, select REMOTE
CLOSE
CONTACTS INPUT and press the
Once local start-up begins, the PIC II performs a series of
pre-start tests to verify that all pre-start alerts and safeties are
within the limits shown in Table 9. The RUN STATUS parame-
ter on the MAINSTAT screen line now reads PRESTART. If a
test is not successful, the start-up is delayed or aborted. If the
tests are successful, the chilled water/brine pump relay energiz-
es, and the MAINSTAT screen line now reads STARTUP.
Five seconds later, the condenser pump relay energizes.
Thirty seconds later the PIC II monitors the chilled water and
condenser water flow devices and waits until the WATER
FLOW VERIFY TIME (operator-configured, default 5 minutes)
expires to confirm flow. After flow is verified, the chilled water
temperature is compared to CONTROL POINT plus
CHILLED WATER DEADBAND. If the temperature is less
than or equal to this value, the PIC II turns off the condenser
pump relay and goes into a RECYCLE mode.
NOTE: The 19XR units equipped with ICVC are not available
with factory-installed chilled water or condenser water flow
devices (available as an accessory for use with the CCM con-
trol board). In place of the cooler and condenser water pressure
inputs on the CCM is a 4300-ohm resistor and a jumper lead.

If the water/brine temperature is high enough, the start-up
sequence continues and checks the guide vane position. If the
guide vanes are more than 4% open, the start-up waits until the
PIC II closes the vanes. If the vanes are closed and the oil pump
pressure is less than 4 psi (27.6 kPa), the oil pump relay ener-
gizes. The PIC II then waits until the oil pressure (OIL PRESS
VERIFY TIME, operator-configured, default of 40 seconds)
reaches a maximum of 18 psi (124 kPa). After oil pressure is
verified, the PIC II waits 40 seconds, and the compressor start
relay (1CR) energizes to start the compressor.
Compressor ontime and service ontime timers start, and the
compressor STARTS IN 12 HOURS counter and the number of
starts over a 12-hour period counter advance by one.
Failure to verify any of the requirements up to this point will
result in the PIC II aborting the start and displaying the applica-
ble pre-start alert mode of failure on the ICVC default screen.
A pre-start failure does not advance the STARTS IN 12 HOURS
counter. Any failure after the 1CR relay has energized results in
a safety shutdown, advances the starts in 12 hours counter by
one, and displays the applicable shutdown status on the ICVC
display.
The minimum time to complete the entire prestart sequence
is approximately 185 seconds.

— START INITIATED: Pre-start checks are made; evaporator pump
started.*
B
— Condenser water pump started (5 seconds after A).
C
— Water flows verified (30 seconds to 5 minutes maximum after B).
Chilled water temperatures checked against control point. Guide
vanes checked for closure. Oil pump started; tower fan control
enabled.
D
— Oil pressure verified (15 seconds minimum, 300 seconds maximum
after C).
E
— Compressor motor starts; compressor ontime and service ontime
start, 15-minute inhibit timer starts (10 seconds after D), total com-
pressor starts advances by one, and the number of starts over a
12-hour period advances by one.

ontime and service ontime stop, and 1-minute inhibit timer starts.
G
— Oil pump and evaporator pumps deenergized (60 seconds after F).
Condenser pump and tower fan control may continue to operate if
condenser pressure is high. Evaporator pump may continue if in
RECYCLE mode.
O/A — Restart permitted (both inhibit timers expired: minimum of 15 minutes
after E; minimum of 1 minute after F).
* Auto Restart After Power Failure Timing sequence will be faster.
