    Unexpected machine operation may occur. SUPERVISOR CONTROLLER, SUPERVISOR II AND WS CONTROLLERS NOTE For information specific to the Supervisor Controller, Supervisor II Deluxe, or WS Controller, consult the Instruction Manual for that specific controller model. This manual describes sequencing of multiple compressors with Supervisor Controller, Supervisor II Deluxe or WS Controller.
  • Page 6 Both the Supervisor Controller and WS Controller can be configured with up to 16 machines in a sequence system. When one or more Supervisor II Deluxe Controllers are in the system, the maximum number of machines is eight.
  • Page 7: Sequencing With Multiple Controllers

    The remaining compressors will continue to operate as needed. The Supervisor Controller has a Remote keypad on the display module that is used to enable and disable the controller from any sequencing mode currently programmed. When the Remote key is first pressed after sequencing has been programmed, the sequencing mode will be enabled and the REMOTE LED on the Display Module will illuminate.

Digital inputs for remote control are disabled. DO NOT enable the Rotate Hours mode when the above situation is NOT true. Unexpected starts and stops may occur when manually starting or stopping a machine in the sequence.

    Section 2 SEQUENCING WITH MULTIPLE CONTROLLERS If, after Recovery Time, the pressure is still above 108 psig (7.4 bar) then the current trim machine will unload. This process can continue until all machines are unloaded. If the pressure falls below load pressure +2 psig (0.14 bar) or 102 psig (7.03 bar) the first machine in the sequence will load and operate as the trim machine.

If the pressure recovers within the RECOVER time, and then at a later time the pressure drops below the Trim Low setpoint, the next machine in sequence will load immediately.

    Alternately, the Full Load solenoid valve may be rewired to the Load output with any of the controllers (Supervisor Controller, Supervisor II Deluxe, or WS) to achieve the same results. In all cases, care must be taken to not overload the compressors by limiting operation to pressures within the capability of the drive motor.

    Section 5 SEQUENCING TIMERS FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION SEQUENCING TIMERS FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION RECOVERY TIME AND DELAYED START TIMER The Recovery Timer is used to keep machines from starting, loading or unloading all at the same time. The Delayed Start timer is used to keep machines from starting unnecessarily due to temporary load changes.

    Section 5 SEQUENCING TIMERS FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION Trim Unloaded (Next machine in sequence) The next machine in sequence will wait for 10 seconds before loading if the pressure stays at 101 or 100. If the pressure goes above 101 loading will be unnecessary. If the pressure goes below 100 the machine will load immediately (regardless of the recovery timer).

    Section 5 SEQUENCING TIMERS FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION Machine Status Trim Stopped (Next machine in sequence) Stopped If the system pressure drops below the Sequence Load pressure (102) but is above the Lowest Pressure (70), the next machine in sequence (2) will start and trim, and the previously trimming machine (1) will go to full load after the Delay Start timer expires.

    Section 6 CONTROLLER COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL CONTROLLER COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL RECOVERY TIME AND DELAYED START TIMER - OVERVIEW Communications connections are internal features of the Supervisor II Deluxe and WS controllers. A separate communications module is added to Supervisor Controllers for any external communications. Most features are common to each controller, unless specifically noted below.
