NOTE: If D.F.ON is configured below DAQ.H, the unit is in
occupied mode, and the fan was off, then DAQ rose above
D.F.ON and the fan came on, the economizer will go to the
economizer minimum position (EC.MN).
The 4 to 20 mA signal from the sensor wired to TB5-6 and
7 is scaled to an equivalent indoor CO
ters IQ.R.L and IQ.R.H located under the Configuration
IAQ
AQ.S.R menu. The parameters are defined such that
4 mA = IQ.R.L and 20 mA = IQ.R.H. When the differential air
quality DAQ (IAQ – OAQ.U) exceeds the DAQ.H setpoint
(Configuration
IAQ
AQ.SP menu) and the supply fan is
on, the economizer minimum vent position (Configuration
IAQ
DCV.C
EC.MN) is overridden and the damper is
moved to the IQ.P.O configuration. When the DAQ falls below
the DAQ.L setpoint (Configuration
the economizer damper is moved back to the minimum vent
position (EC.MN).
NOTE: Configuration OAQ.U is used in the calculation of the
trip point for override and can be found under Configura-
tion
IAQ
AQ.SP.
IQ.A.C = 3 (4 to 20 mA Damper Control) — This configura-
tion will provide full 4 to 20 mA remotely controlled analog in-
put for economizer minimum damper position. The 4 to 20 mA
signal is connected to terminals TB5-6 and 7. The input is
processed as 4 mA = 0% and 20 mA = 100%, thereby giving
complete range control of the effective minimum position.
The economizer sequences can be disabled by setting Con-
figuration
ECON
E.SEL to 0. Complete control of the
economizer damper position is then possible by using a 4 to
20 mA economizer minimum position control or a 0 to
10,000 ohms 0 to 100% economizer minimum position control
via configuration decisions at Configuration
IQ.A.C.
IQ.A.C = 4 (10 Kilo-ohm Potentiometer Damper Control)
— This configuration will provide input for a 10 kilo-ohm lin-
ear potentiometer that acts as a remotely controlled analog in-
put for economizer minimum damper position. The input is
processed as 0 ohms = 0% and 10,000 ohms = 100%, thereby
giving complete range control of the effective minimum
position.

CONTROLS OPERATION

The ComfortLink controls operate under a hierar-
Modes —
chy of command structure as defined by three essential ele-
ments: the System mode, the HVAC mode and the Control
mode. The System mode is the top level mode that defines three
essential states for the control system: OFF, RUN, and TEST.
The HVAC mode is the functional level underneath the
System mode which further defines the operation of the
control. The mode selection process is shown in Appendix D.
The Control mode is essentially the control type of the unit
(Configuration
UNIT
C.TYP). This defines from where
the control looks to establish a cooling or heating mode and
whether 2 stages or multiple stages of cooling capacity opera-
tion are controlled.
Furthermore, there are a number of modes which operate
concurrently when the unit is running. The operating modes of
the control are located at the local displays under Operating
Modes. See Table 31.
Currently Occupied (OCC) — This variable displays the cur-
rent occupied state of the unit.
Timed Override in Effect (T.OVR) — This variable displays
if the state of occupancy is currently occupied due to an
override.
DCV Resetting Minimum Position (DCV) — This variable
displays if the economizer position has been lowered from its
maximum vent position.

Supply Air Reset (SA.R) — This variable displays if the sup-
ply air reset is currently active. This applies to cooling only.
Demand Limit in Effect (DMD.L) — This variable displays
if the mechanical cooling capacity is currently being limited or
reduced by an outside third party.
Temperature Compensated Start (T.C.ST) — This variable
displays if Heating or Cooling has been initiated before the
occupied period to pre-condition the space.
IAQ Pre-Occupancy Purge Active (IAQ.P) — This variable
displays if the economizer is open and the fan is on to pre-
ventilate the building before occupancy.
Linkage Active CCN (LINK) — This variable displays if a
linkage master in a zoning system has established "linkage"
with this air source (rooftop).
Mechanical Cooling Locked Out (LOCK) — This variable
displays if mechanical cooling is currently being locked due to
low outside air temperature.
HVAC Mode Numerical Form (H.NUM) — This is a numer-
ical representation of the HVAC modes which may be read via
a point read.
SYSTEM MODES (Operating Modes
System Mode Off — When the system mode is OFF, all out-
puts are to be shut down and no machine control is possible.
The following list displays the text assigned to the System
Mode when in the OFF mode and the conditions that may
cause this mode are checked in the following hierarchal order:
1. Wake up timer on a power reset.
("Initializing System ...")
2. System in the process of shutting down compressors and
waiting for timeguards to expire.
("Shutting Down ...")
3. Factory shut down (internal factory control level —
SHUTDOWN).
("Factory Shut Down")
4. Unit stop (software application level variable that acts as
a hard shut down — Service Test
("Local Machine Stop")
5. Fire shut down (traumatic fire shutdown condition based
on the Fire Shutdown Input — Inputs
("Fire-Shutdown Mode")
6. Emergency stop, which is forced over the CCN through
the Emergency Stop Variable (EMSTOP).
("CCN Emergency Stop")
7. Startup delay.
("Startup delay = 0-900 secs")
8. Service test ending transition timer.
("Service Test Ending")
9. Unexplained internal software failure.
