CONTROL OPERATION

Start-Stop Control

This function controls the chiller START-STOP command. The
four selectable control modes are as follows: LOCAL, LOCAL
SCHEDULE, REMOTE, or NETWORK. See Unit Start/Stop
Screen on page 13. Specific control sources are valid to start or
stop the chiller for each control mode.
LOCAL
When the control mode is LOCAL, the chiller can be started by
the "Local ON" button on the PIC6 interface screen, and can
be shut down by the Confirm Stop button on the screen or by
the EMSTOP software point.
LOCAL SCHEDULE
When the control mode is LOCAL SCHEDULE, the chiller
will be started automatically if the configurable local schedule
is Occupied. The chiller can be shut down by the unoccupied
schedule, the Stop button on the PIC6 interface screen, or by
the EMSTOP software point.
REMOTE
When the control mode is REMOTE, the chiller will be started
by the remote discrete input (REM_CON) located on the I/O
board. The chiller can be shut down by the remote discrete in-
put, the Stop button on the PIC6 interface screen, or by the
EMSTOP software point.
NETWORK
When the control mode is NETWORK, the chiller can be start-
ed and stopped by the CHIL_S_S and CHIL_OCC software
points, which are written by other equipment through network
commands and network schedule (both must be TRUE for
chiller to start). To shut down the chiller, use the EMSTOP
software point or stop using the HMI.
NOTE: There is a STOP OVERRIDE point in the GENUNIT ta-
ble. If this point is enabled the chiller cannot be started.

Compressor Run Status

Compressor run status is shown at the top of the system over-
view (home) screen. Table 11 lists chiller status numbers,
names, and descriptions.

Chiller Start-Up Sequence

PRE-START CHECK
Once start-up begins, the controller performs a series of pre-start
tests to verify that all pre-start alerts and safeties are within limits.
Progress is shown on the Startup Sequence screen (see Fig. 30).
This screen can be accessed by touching the mode title (top blue
bar) of the home screen. Table 12 lists pre-start alert and alarm
conditions.
The compressor RUN STATUS parameter on the default
screen line now reads PRESTART. If a test is not successful,
the start-up is delayed or aborted. If all tests are successful, the
chilled water pump relay energizes, and the main screen line
now reads STARTUP.

DESCRIPTION
STATSTOP is STOP, no alarm.
Controls Test is active.
Lockout is active.
Recycle shutdown completed on low load
in effect until the need for cooling resumes;
non-fault condition.
Shutdown completed due to alarm fault
condition.
The controller is delaying the start
sequence until the Start to Start or Stop to
Start timers have elapsed.
The chiller is in the process of system
checking before energizing the compressor
motor.
Normal start-up in progress.
Auto Restart in progress.
Ramp loading in progress. The chiller has
started and is gradually increasing its load
to control electrical demand charges.
The chiller has completed ramp loading fol-
lowing start-up. Normal running mode, no
override or demand limit.
Running with Override active.
Running with Demand Limit active. The chiller
is prevented from loading further because it
has reached an AVERAGE LOAD CUR-
RENT limit or a MOTOR KILOWATTS limit.
