Use the Carrier network communication software to start up and configure the PremierLink controller.
Changes can be made using the ComfortWORKSr software, ComfortVIEWt software, Network Service Tool, System Pilott device, or Touch Pilott device. The System Pilot and Touch Pilot are portable interface devices that allow the user to change system set-up and setpoints from a zone sensor or terminal control module. During start-up, the Carrier software can also be used to verify communication with Premier-Link controller.
NOTE: All set-up and setpoint configurations are factory set and field-adjustable.
For specific operating instructions, refer to the literature provided with user interface software.
Perform System Check-Out
1.Check correctness and tightness of all power and communication connections.
2.At the unit, check fan and system controls for proper operation.
3.At the unit, check electrical system and connections of any accessory electric heater.
4.Check to be sure the area around the unit is clear of construction dirt and debris.
5.Check that final filters are installed in the unit. Dust and debris can adversely affect system operation.
6.Verify that the PremierLink controls are properly con- nected to the CCN bus.
Initial Operation and Test
Perform the following procedure:
1.Apply 24 vac power to the control.
2.Connect the service tool to the phone jack service port of the controller.
3.Using the Service Tool, upload the controller from address 0, 31 at 9600 baud rate. The address may be set at this time. Make sure that Service Tool is con- nected to only one unit when changing the address.
Memory Reset
DIP switch 4 causes an E-squared memory reset to factory defaults after the switch has been moved from position 0 to position 1 and the power has been restored. To enable the feature again, the switch must be put back to the 0 position and power must be restored; this prevents subsequent resets to factory defaults if the switch is left at position 1.
To cause a reset of the non-volatile memory (to factory defaults), turn the controller power off if it is on, move the switch from position 1 to position 0, and then apply power to the controller for a minimum of 5 seconds. At this point, no action occurs, but the controller is now ready for the memory to reset. Remove power to the controller again and move the switch from position 0 to position 1. This time, when power is applied, the memory will reset to factory defaults. The controller address will return to bus 0 element 31, indicating that memory reset occurred.
Refer to Installation Instruction 33CS-58SI for full discussion on configuring the PremierLink control system.
Operating Sequence, Base Unit Controls
COOLING, UNITS WITHOUT ECONOMIZER — When thermostat calls for cooling, terminals G and Y1 are energized. The indoor-fan contactor (IFC) and compressor contactor are energized and indoor-fan motor, compressor, and outdoor fan starts. The outdoor fan motor runs continuously while unit is cooling.
HEATING, UNITS WITHOUT ECONOMIZER — When the thermostat calls for heating, terminal W1 will be energized with 24v. The IFC and heater contactor no. 1 (HC1) are energized.
COOLING, UNITS WITH ECONOMI$ER IV — When free cooling is not available, the compressors will be controlled by the zone thermostat. When free cooling is available, the outdoor-air damper is modulated by the EconoMi$er IV control to provide a 50 to 55_F supply-air temperature into the zone. As the supply-air temperature fluctuates above 55 or below 50_F, the dampers will be modulated (open or close) to bring the supply- air temperature back within the setpoint limits.
Integrated EconoMi$er IV operation on single stage units requires a 2-stage thermostat (Y1 and Y2).
For EconoMi$er IV operation, there must be a thermostat call for the fan (G). This will move the damper to its minimum position during the occupied mode.
If the increase in cooling capacity causes the supply-air temperature to drop below 45_F, then the outdoor-air damper position will be fully closed. If the supply-air temperature continues to fall, the outdoor-air damper will close. Control returns to normal once the supply-air temperature rises above 48_F. If optional power exhaust is installed, as the outdoor-air damper opens and closes, the power exhaust fans will be energized and deenergized.
If field-installed accessory CO2 sensors are connected to the EconoMi$er IV control, a demand controlled ventilation strategy will begin to operate. As the CO2 level in the zone increases above the CO2 setpoint, the minimum position of the damper will be increased proportionally. As the CO2 level decreases because of the increase in fresh air, the outdoor-air damper will be proportionally closed. Damper position will follow the higher demand condition from DCV mode or free cooling mode.
Damper movement from full closed to full open (or vice versa) will take between 1-1/2 and 2-1/2 minutes.
If free cooling can be used as determined from the appropriate changeover command (switch, dry bulb, enthalpy curve, differential dry bulb, or differential enthalpy), a call for cooling (Y1 closes at the thermostat) will cause the control to modulate the dampers open to maintain the supply air temperature setpoint at 50 to 55_F. As the supply-air temperature drops below the setpoint range of 50 to 55_F, the control will modulate the
