  • Page 5: General Introduction

    Operation and safety instructions These subjects are covered in a separate manual. This manual also applies to other control computers in the Fancom F2000-line. Always read the safety instructions and warnings carefully before using the control computer. Always keep this manual close to the Lumina 16.

  • Page 6: F-Central Farmmanager

    Lumina 16 General introduction Virtually all Fancom equipment can be controlled and managed from a central location. This requires the F- Central FarmManager software package and a communication module. The screens in the control computers are also used in F-Central FarmManager. This means you can start working immediately.
  • Page 7 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Please refer to the user's manual for an explanation of the basic principles of climate management. This chapter describes the working of a number of specific control functions that the installer should set. Ventilation is used to create the most pleasant climate possible in the house. Ventilation also extracts harmful substances from the house and introduces fresh air into the house.

  • Page 8: Explanation Control Functions

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Part of the ventilation demand can be met using natural ventilation. During natural ventilation the fans are off. The outside wind provides the air flow through the house. The entire combi-table is deactivated in the natural ventilation phase.

  • Page 9: Ventilation

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Transition Natural ventilation → Power ventilation (1) With falling temperatures the control computer switches over to low ventilation when the curtains are open minimum and the temperature falls below Natural start (1). The inlets for natural ventilation (curtains) are closed.
  • Page 10 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions The control computer can control controllable fans and extra fans. Controllable fans can be controlled by the control computer at a certain percentage. The control computer controls the fans from, for example, 30% to 100%. This enables the control computer to increase ventilation precisely up to the required level.
  • Page 11 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Extra fans can only be switched on or off via a relay. They are usually used when the controllable fans are running at maximum or in combination with controllable fans to achieve a gradual increase in ventilation.
  • Page 12 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions The ventilation level is expressed as a percentage. Using this percentage the control computer can locate the required level of control of the fan(s) in the combi-table. Extra fans are shown in the combi-table as value ‘0’ (off) or ‘1’ (on).
  • Page 13 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions The settings that have to be made for the tunnel part (T-part) correspond broadly with the settings for the Power- part. Instead of the ventilation position in % you enter the offset temperature for the positions. At the first position this offset temperature is linked to start temperature ventilation + calculated bandwidth.
  • Page 14 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Determining the ventilation position The control computer determines the use of air inlets, extra inlets and fans based on the combi-table. The example below shows a combi-table with modulating fans. The relay fans will do 20.000 m3 each.
  • Page 15 Modulating control allows minimum ventilation to be achieved using, for example, a large fan. Fancom differentiates between the following types of modulating control:  Modulating control with fixed modulation times ...

  • Page 16: Heating

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Example - Optimum modulating control (2) Modulate below Control value ventilation: 3% The control computer assumes an optimum ON-time of 2 minutes. This means that the optimum ON- time of 2 minutes must be a tenth (=3/30) of the total cycle time. The control computer calculates a cycle time of 10 x 2 minutes = 20 minutes (2 minutes on and 18 minutes off).
  • Page 17 Lumina 16 Explanation control functions The control computer activates heating if the house Setpoint – temperature drops below hysteresis. If the house temperature rises, the heating will stay on until the control value heating is reached. A set Repeat time can be used to prevent unnecessary activation/deactivation of the heating.

  • Page 18: Cooling

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions With analog heating control the heating is controlled by a P- or PI-control. Use Repeat time to determine the type of heating control. If the Repeat time is less than 10 seconds, a P-band control is concerned. In other cases PI- control applies.

  • Page 19: Humidifying

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Time modulating ON/OFF control This type of control can be selected if the cooling capacity is large and the cooling system is suitable for modulating control. Cooling is continually on, if the temperature of the cooling control is higher than Setpoint + hysteresis.

  • Page 20: Humitemp

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions Example: Time modulating humidity control Inside Hysteresis the control computer controls humidity during a part of the Repeat time. The control computer calculates this on/off time as follows:  Setpoint:  Measured RH:  Hysteresis: ...

  • Page 21: Optisec

    Lumina 16 Explanation control functions OptiSec = Optimum Setpoint Control The control computer uses a neutral zone, with minimum ventilation and no heating. This lowers energy costs. The neutral zone is the area between control value heating and start temperature ventilation. If OptiSec is not...

  • Page 22: Installing The Lumina 16

    Takes into account the following guidelines: Figure 8: required edge distances Never place the Lumina 16 in a place where the weather has direct influence (not in the sun, not in places where the temperature can rise sharply etc.). Never mount the Lumina 16 near water pipes, drainage pipes etc.

  • Page 23: Connect The Lumina 16

    Connect other (signal wires) to the Lumina 16, see chapter Technical specifications. Close the cover. Always use the cable swivels when connecting the Lumina 16. Use the sealing discs supplied to seal off any unused swivels. Use a sealant to seal all swivels, after the computer has been connected, to prevent the entry of moisture, dust and/or aggressive gasses.

  • Page 29: Communication

    If no IO-net modules are connected, the control computer doesn't give alarms during the Simulation Mode. FNet is the Fancom Network. Several control computers can be linked via this network. FNet is also used to operate the connected control computers from a PC.
