Section 4: Glossary of Control Functions

If a zone includes more than 1 Standby unit, the same actions occur. At the end of each Interval, one unit is started and one is stopped. For example, if two Standby units are used, the First is started after the First Interval. The unit that had been running the longest becomes the Standby unit. After the second Interval, the second Standby unit is started, and the Running unit with the longest operating time becomes the Standby unit.

Clear Alarms

All alarms are latching and must be manually cleared from the control panel or from a terminal. Be sure to review alarms before clearing them because recent alarm history is your best indication of system performance. When alarms are cleared, units that are running because of an Autochangeover will change back to their programmed status.

Common Alarm—Inputs

Each environmental control unit has a Common Alarm contact closure output. The RAC2-8 receives the Common Alarm from each unit as a control input. These alarms are annunciated only if the programmed Delays (Hold and/or Alarm) are exceeded. A Common Alarm from a Running unit causes a Standby unit to be turned ON, and turns OFF the Running unit if shutdown is selected. A Common Alarm from a Standby unit causes the unit to be unavailable.
