MicroTech III Controller with an
Optional BACnet® Communication
Module
For installation and operation information on MicroTech
III unit controller and other ancillary components, see:
•
IM 928 - MicroTech III Water Source Heat Pump
BACnet Communication Module
•
IM 955 - MicroTech III Wall Sensor For use with
Microtech III Unit Controller
Daikin water source heat pumps are available with
an optional BACnet MS/TP communication module
that is designed to communicate over a BACnet MS/
TP communications network to a building automation
system (BAS). It can be factory or field-installed.
The unit controller is programmed and tested with all the
logic required to monitor and control the unit . An optional
wall sensor may be used with the communication
module to provide limited local control of the water
source heat pump . The unit controller monitors water
and air temperatures and passes information to the
communication module . The module communicates with
the BAS, to provide network control of the water source
heat pump .
The module makes operational data and commands
available on a communications network using BACnet
objects and properties:
•
The network cable is a shielded twisted-pair cable
•
Network communications run up to 76 .8 Kbps
•
DIP switches on the controller enable the MS/TP
MAC address to be set in the range 0-127
•
Four green status LEDs on the communication
module indicate communication activity on the
MS/TP communication network and with the unit
controller

MicroTech III Unit Controller with
BACnet MS/TP Communication
Module orchestrates the following unit
operations:
•
Enable heating and cooling to maintain setpoint
based on a room sensor
•
Enable fan and compressor operation
•
Monitors all equipment protection controls
•
Monitors room and discharge air temperatures
•
Monitors leaving water temperature
•
Relays status of all vital unit functions
The MicroTech III unit controller with
an optional communication module
includes:
•
Return Air Temperature sensor (RAT)(field-installed)
•
Discharge Air Temperature sensor (DAT)(field-
installed)
•
Leaving Water Temperature sensor (LWT)
Note: Refer to IM 956-X for details to install (RAT) &
(DAT) sensors.
When an optional wall-mounted room temperature sensor is
connected to the unit controller, the Return Air Temperature (RAT)
sensor must not be installed . A wall-mounted room temperature
sensor and the return air temperature sensor must not be
connected simultaneously or the unit will not operate properly .
The communication module provides access to setpoints
for operational control
Available wall sensors include:
•
Room sensor with LED status and tenant override
button
•
Room sensor with LED status, tenant override
button, and ±5°F setpoint adjustment
•
Room sensor with LED status, tenant override
button, 55° to 95°F setpoint adjustment
