What is the Fan Coil controller? The Fan Coil controller is available as an integrated component of a Carrier packaged unit. Its internal application programming provides optimum performance and energy efficiency. Fan Coil enables the unit to run in 100% stand-alone control mode or it can communicate to the Building Automation System (BAS).
Communications wiring Communications wiring Protocol Overview You can set the Fan Coil to communicate 1 of 4 different protocols: • BACnet MS/TP (page 5) • BACnet ARC156 (page 9) • N2 (page 13) • Modbus (page 11) • LonWorks (page 15) The default setting is BACnet MS/TP.
Communications wiring BACnet MS/TP To set up the Fan Coil for BACnet MS/TP The Fan Coil’s latest supported function codes and capabilities are listed on the associated Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS), Carrier BACnet PICS website http://www.bacnetinternational.net/catalog/index.php?m=28. NOTE This controller counts as a full load on the MS/TP bus.
Max Info Frames - defines the maximum number of responses that will be sent when the Fan Coil receives the token. The default is 10 and should be ideal for the majority of applications. In cases where the Fan Coil is the target of many requests, this number could be increased as high as 100 or 200.
Done. Click Save. Troubleshooting BACnet MS/TP communication For detailed troubleshooting and a list of supported objects, get the controller's BACnet PICS from the Carrier BACnet PICS website http://www.bacnetinternational.net/catalog/index.php?m=28. You must get your BACnet Object list from the manufacturer. The most common communication problems are the result of not properly following the configuration steps outlined in this manual.
EXAMPLE If the controller’s address is 25, point the arrow on the Tens (10's) switch to 2 and the arrow on the Ones (1's) switch to 5. 10's NOTE The Fan Coil recognizes its address only after power has been cycled. Set communications selector for BACnet ARC156. Set the both DIP switches 3 and 4 OFF for BACnet ARC156.
Attach the drain/shield wire to both ends of the network segment and through every controller ○ NOTE Use the same polarity throughout the network segment. Turn on the power for the Fan Coil by connecting power terminals. Troubleshooting ARC156 communication The most common communication problems result from not properly following the configuration steps outlined above in this manual.
EXAMPLE If the controller’s address is 25, point the arrow on the Tens (10's) switch to 2 and the arrow on the Ones (1's) switch to 5. 10's NOTE The Fan Coil recognizes its address only after power has been cycled. Set communications selector for EIA-485. Set DIP switches 1 and 2 for the appropriate communications speed. See table below.

Turn on the power for the Fan Coil by connecting power terminals. Troubleshooting Modbus communication The most common communication problems result from not properly following the configuration steps outlined above in this manual.
To set up the Fan Coil for N2 Turn off the power for the Fan Coil by disconnecting power terminals. Using the rotary switches, set a unique address. Set the Tens (10's) switch to the tens digit of the address, and set the Ones (1's) switch to the ones digit.
Ensure that you are properly grounded. Refer to Appendix E for the LonWorks Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS). To set up the Fan Coil for the LonWorks Option Card (#LON-OC) Turn off the power for the Fan Coil by disconnecting power terminals.
Network Management Tool. The Browse feature of the Network Management Tool allows you to read real-time values from the Fan Coil. The Network Management Tool allows you to test integration prior to binding the controller's network variables to other LonWorks nodes.
Sequence of Operation Sequence of Operation The Fan Coil controls mechanical cooling and heating based on its own space temperature input and setpoints. An optional CO (Indoor Air Quality) sensor mounted in the space maximizes occupant comfort when used with the DCV ventilation damper option.
Automatic Fan Speed Control - The Fan Coil controls up to 3 fan speeds using a Fan Interface board or field- installed relays. The fan motor operates at the lowest speed possible to provide quiet and efficient fan operation with the best latent capability during cooling.
Cooling The Fan Coil operates one stage of DX cooling or chilled water valve (2-position or modulating) to maintain the desired cooling setpoint. The PI (Proportional-integral) cooling algorithm controls the cooling. The desired Supply Air Temperature setpoint [Cooling Control Setpoint] is calculated by the controller.
5 minutes. Heating The Fan Coil operates one stage of electric heat or a hot water valve (2-position or modulating) to maintain the desired heating setpoint. The heating is controlled by the PI (Proportional-integral) heating algorithm. The desired Supply Air Temperature setpoint [Heating Control Setpoint] is calculated by the Fan Coil. This setpoint is compared to the actual supply air temperature and used to determine valve operation for modulating or 2-position control valves or staging for electric heat.
SAT at the configured Fan Off Value temperature. Changeover mode detection The Fan Coil control determines the changeover mode for 2-pipe heating/cooling systems. The controller monitors a local changeover thermistor sensor or switch, dependent upon configuration. User-configurable temperature setpoints determine the heat or cool mode.
Sequence of Operation Indoor air quality The Fan Coil controls either 2-position or Demand Controlled Ventilation (DCV) to provide the necessary ventilation to the occupied space. To meet any ventilation requirement, the fan must always be configured for the Continuous or Always On mode of operation. If the fan is configured for Automatic operation, the fan is started during occupied periods, if required, but ASHRAE base ventilation requirements will NOT be met using Automatic fan operation.
Demand Limiting The Fan Coil accepts 3 levels of demand limit from the network. In response to a demand limit, the unit decreases its heating setpoint and increases its cooling setpoint to widen the range in order to immediately lower the electrical demand.
The fan coil uses this information to provide the air required to satisfy the load in the zones. The operating mode and supply air temperature of the fan coil is sent to all the zones in the system. Airside Linkage has the highest priority and overrides both local control and Thermostat Linkage.

LonWorks network points are spawned within the device as a result of downloading graphical control programs. The Fan Coil controller speaks the LonWorks Protocol as described by Echelon Protocol Specification. Since the controller is custom-programmable it does not conform to LonMark certification. Further details on the LonWorks supported implementation are described below.
