Table 78 — Auto View of Run Status Display Table

ECONOMIZER RUN STATUS — The Economizer Run Status

display table provides information about the economizer and can

be used to troubleshoot economizer problems. See Table 79. The

current position, commanded position, and whether the econo-

mizer is active can be displayed. All the disabling conditions

for the economizer and outside air information is also displayed.
COOLING INFORMATION — The Cooling Information run

status display table provides information on the cooling opera-

tion of the unit. See Table 80.
Current Running Capacity (C.CAP) — This variable repre-

sents the amount of capacity currently running as a percent.
Current Cool Stage (CUR.S) — This variable represents the

cool stage currently running.
Requested Cool Stage (REQ.S) — This variable represents

the requested cool stage. Cooling relay timeguards in place

may prevent the requested cool stage from matching the

current cool stage.
Maximum Cool Stages (MAX.S) — This variable is the max-

imum number of cooling stages the control is configured for

and capable of controlling.
Active Demand Limit (DEM.L) — If demand limit is active,

this variable will represent the amount of capacity that the

control is currently limited to.
Capacity Load Factor (SMZ) — This factor builds up or

down over time (–100 to +100) and is used as the means of add-

ing or subtracting a cooling stage during run time. It is a nor-

malized representation of the relationship between “Sum” and

“Z”. See the SUMZ Cooling Algorithm section on page 50.
Next Stage EDT Decrease (ADD.R) — This variable repre-

sents (if adding a stage of cooling) how much the temperature

should drop in degrees depending on the R.PCT calculation

and how much additional capacity is to be added.

ADD.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP – capacity after adding a cool-

ing stage)

For example: If R.PCT = 0.2 and the control would be add-

ing 20% cooling capacity by taking the next step up, 0.2 times

20 = 4 F ADD.R
Next Stage EDT Increase (SUB.R) — This variable repre-

sents (if subtracting a stage of cooling) how much the tempera-

ture should rise in degrees depending on the R.PCT calculation

and how much capacity is to be subtracted.

SUB.R = R.PCT * (C.CAP – capacity after subtracting a

cooling stage)

For Example: If R.PCT = 0.2 and the control would be

subtracting 30% capacity by taking the next step down,

0.2 times –30 = –6 F SUB.R.
Rise Per Percent Capacity (R.PCT) — This is a real time cal-

culation that represents the amount of degrees of drop/rise

across the evaporator coil versus percent of current running

capacity.

R.PCT = (MATEDT)/C.CAP

Cap Deadband Subtracting (Y.MIN) — This is a control vari-

able used for Low Temp Override (L.TMP) and Slow Change

Override (SLOW).

Y.MIN = –SUB.R*0.4375

Cap Deadband Adding (Y.PLU) — This is a control variable

used for High Temp Override (H.TMP) and Slow Change

Override (SLOW).

Y.PLU = –ADD.R*0.4375

Cap Threshold Subtracting (Z.MIN) — This parameter is

used in the calculation of SMZ and is calculated as follows:

Z.MIN = Configuration

COOL

Z.GN * (–10 + (4*

(SUB.R))) * 0.6
Cap Threshold Adding (Z.PLU) — This parameter is used in

the calculation of SMZ and is calculated as follows:

Z.PLU = Configuration

COOL

Z.GN * (10 + (4*

(ADD.R))) * 0.6
High Temp Cap Override (H.TMP) — If stages of mechani-

cal cooling are on and the error is greater than twice Y.PLU,

and the rate of change of error is greater than 0.5

° F, then a

stage of mechanical cooling will be added every 30 seconds.

This override is intended to react to situations where the load

rapidly increases.
Low Temp Cap Override (L.TMP) — If the error is less than

twice Y.MIN, and the rate of change of error is less than

–0.5

° F, then a mechanical stage will be removed every 30 sec-

onds. This override is intended to quickly react to situations

where the load is rapidly reduced.
Pull Down Cap Override (PULL) — If the error from set

point is above 4

° F, and the rate of change is less than –1° F per

minute, then pulldown is in effect, and “SUM” is set to 0. This

keeps mechanical cooling stages from being added when the

error is very large, but there is no load in the space. Pulldown

for units is expected to rarely occur, but is included for the rare

situation when it is needed. Most likely pulldown will occur

when mechanical cooling first becomes available shortly after

the control goes into an occupied mode (after a warm unoccu-

pied mode).
Slow Change Cap Override (SLOW) — With a rooftop unit,

the design rise at 100% total unit capacity is generally around

30

° F. For a unit with 4 stages, each stage represents about

7.5

° F of change to EDT. If stages could reliably be cycled at

very fast rates, the set point could be maintained very precisely.

Since it is not desirable to cycle compressors more than 6 cy-

cles per hour, slow change override takes care of keeping the

PID under control when “relatively” close to set point.
MODE TRIP HELPER — The Mode Trip Helper table pro-

vides information on the unit modes and when the modes start

and stop. See Table 81. This information can be used to help

determine why the unit is in the current mode.
