CLBFTT-10B

Board-To-Board Connector

The 10-pin board-to-board connector connects the MicroTech III chiller unit controller to the LONWORKS communication module (Figure 6 and Figure 8).

Figure 6: Board-to-Board Connector

This figure shows a diagram of the 10-pin board-to-board connector, detailing its physical dimensions and components like metal springs and baffles, which are crucial for proper alignment and connection.

Neuron ID

The basis of the LONWORKS communication module is an Echelon Neuron integrated circuit (Neuron chip). Every Neuron chip has a unique 48-bit Neuron ID or physical address. The Neuron ID can be used to address the device on the LONWORKS network.

The Neuron ID is generally used only during initial installation or for diagnostic purposes. For normal network operation, a device address is used.

Transceiver

The LONWORKS communication module is equipped with an Echelon Free Topology Transceiver (FTT-10A) to enable network communication. The transceiver supports free network topology (including ring, star, and daisy-chain) using unshielded, twisted pair cable with polarity insensitive connections at each node. Free topology segments require termination for proper transmission performance.

Data transmission rate on the network is 78 kbps (baud).

Bus Termination

Bus termination resistors are used for properly terminating a network based on twisted pair cabling with attention to impedance.

NOTE: Refer to Echelon LONWORKS FTT-10A Transceiver User's Guide for details regarding acceptable configurations, cabling requirements, terminations, impedance, and other requirements (www.echelon.com).

Each trunk can have at maximum one physical repeater. Repeaters and routers may not be used in a ring topology. They must be placed before the network's ring port.

Software Interface to Unit Controller

The LONWORKS communication module software translates the Standard Network Variable Types (SNVTs) and Standard Network Configuration Parameter Types (SCPTs) used in the MicroTech III chiller unit controller into the variables and parameters used by the LONWORKS network. The software conforms to the LonMark 3.4 chiller profile. Refer to MicroTech III Chiller Unit Controller Protocol Document, ED 15120 for additional information (www.DaikinApplied.com).

Installation and Mounting

The following section describes how to field install a new LONWORKS communication module or replace an existing module on the MicroTech III chiller unit controller.

CAUTION

Electrostatic discharge hazard. Can cause equipment damage.

This equipment contains sensitive electronic components that may be damaged by electrostatic discharge from your hands. Before you handle a communication module, you need to touch a grounded object, such as the metal enclosure, in order to discharge the electrostatic potential from your body.

WARNING

  • The LONWORKS communication module
  • Board-to-board connector - Figure 6
  • This Manual (IM 968)

Installing a New Communication Module

Follow these steps to install a LONWORKS communication module on the unit controller. The communication module can be connected directly to the unit controller itself or to an existing module, if one is attached.

  1. Set the Unit On/Off Switch to "Off" from inside the control panel of the unit. This must be done prior to installing a new communication module. See Figure 7 for switch location.

Figure 7: Chiller Unit Controller On/Off Switch

This figure shows the location of the Unit On/Off Switch within the chiller unit controller's control panel.

  1. Remove power from the unit controller.
  2. Carefully remove the blue plastic knockout strip on the far left end of the unit controller itself (or additional module, if present). Figure 8 shows the knockout strip after it has been removed from the unit controller. To prevent damage to the unit controller, insert a small flathead screwdriver or similar tool into the tab on the bottom of the unit controller and pull the screwdriver away from the controller.
  3. Carefully remove the blue plastic knockout strip on the right side of the LONWORKS communication module.

This figure illustrates the communication module and the blue plastic knockout strip that needs to be removed. It also shows the board-to-board connector and highlights how the slot in the module must align with the baffle in the connector.

  1. Insert the board-to-board connector into the LONWORKS communication module. Note that it only fits one way and that the baffles must line up with corresponding slots in LONWORKS communication module and the unit controller (Figure 8 and Figure 9).
  2. Insert the other end of the board-to-board connector to the far-left side of the unit controller or other module, if attached.
  3. Connect the LONWORKS communication module to the network by inserting a network cable into the communication module's network connector (Figure 4).
  4. Apply power to the unit controller. The unit controller automatically resets itself approximately 30 seconds after power has been applied to it. This reset is necessary so that the LONWORKS communication module can synchronize with the unit controller.

NOTE: There is a limit of three devices that can be attached to the left side of the unit controller.

  1. Set the Unit On/Off Switch to "On" from inside the control panel of the unit.

Figure 9: Communication Module with Board-to-Board Connector Inserted

This figure shows the LONWORKS communication module with the board-to-board connector already inserted, ready for attachment to the unit controller.

Replacing a Communication Module

Follow these steps to remove an existing LONWORKS communication module from unit controller and replace it with a new module.

  1. Set the Unit On/Off Switch to "Off" from inside the control panel of the unit. This must be done prior to replacing a communication module. See for switch location.
  2. Remove power from the unit controller.
  3. Locate the LONWORKS communication module to the left of the unit controller (Figure 3).
  4. Gently pull the network cable connector from the LONWORKS communication module (Figure 4).
  5. Grasp the LONWORKS communication module and carefully pull it from the unit controller (or from an adjacent module, if it is attached to one.)
  6. Install the new LONWORKS communication module:
    • Carefully remove the blue plastic knockout strip on the right side of the LONWORKS communication module.
    • Insert the board-to-board connector into the LONWORKS communication module. Note that it only fits one way and that the baffles must line up with corresponding slots in the communication module and the unit controller (Figure 8 and Figure 9).
  7. Insert the network cable connector into the LONWORKS communication module (Figure 4).
  8. Apply power to the unit controller. The unit controller automatically resets itself approximately 30 seconds after power has been applied to it. This reset is necessary so that the LONWORKS communication module can synchronize with the unit controller.
  9. Set the Unit On/Off Switch to "On" from inside the control panel of the unit.

Commissioning and Configuration

After the LONWORKS communication module has been installed, the MicroTech III chiller unit controller is ready for integration into a building automation system (BAS). The following section explains how the communication module, together with the unit controller, support LONWORKS network addressing requirements. It then provides instructions for commissioning and configuring the communication module.

LONWORKS Network Addressing

The LONWORKS communication module conforms to the network addressing rules as described in the LONWORKS FTT-10A Free Topology Transceiver Users Guide (www.echelon.com). According to the standard, all device addresses are defined at the time of network configuration. Device addresses have three parts:

  1. The Domain ID - designates the domain. Devices must be in the same domain in order to communicate with each other.
  2. The Subnet ID - specifies a collection of up to 127 devices that are on a single channel or a set of channels connected by repeaters. There may be up to 255 subnets in a domain.
  3. The Node ID - identifies an individual device within the subnet.

A group is a logical collection of devices within a domain. Groups are assembled with regard for their physical location in the domain. There may be up to 256 groups in a domain. A group address is the address that identifies all devices of the group. There may be any number of devices in a group when unacknowledged messaging is used. Groups are limited to 64 devices if acknowledged messaging is used.

A broadcast address identifies all devices within a subnet or domain.

External Interface File (XIF) and NXE Files

The LONWORKS communication module conforms to LonMark guidelines. It is self-documenting so that any LONWORKS network management tool can be used for integration and configuration.

An external interface file (a specially formatted PC text file with the extension .XIF) is required, along with a LONWORKS network management tool, so the device can be designed and configured prior to installation.

The NXE file contains the application image that is downloaded into the LONWORKS Communication module.

Resource Files

Resource files contain definitions of functional profiles, network variables types, configuration property types, and enumerations. Resource files are required for displaying Daikin Applied-specific variables that are not included in the standard device profile. The LONWORKS communication module uses the McQuayChiller (Scope 5) resource files.

The XIF, NXE, and Resource files are available at www.DaikinApplied.com or www.lonmark.org.

Commissioning

Follow these steps to commission the LONWORKS communication module:

  1. Verify the communication module is attached properly to the unit controller.
  2. Connect the twisted pair cable to the communication module's network connector pins CLA and CLB (Figure 4).
  3. Download XIF, NXE, and Resource Files from either www.DaikinApplied.com or www.lonmark.org.
  4. Use a LONWORKS network configuration tool, such as LonMaker®, to map the device Neuron ID to the domain/subnet/node logical addressing scheme when it creates the network image, the network address, and connection information.
  5. Confirm that the BAS is ready to receive a network device broadcast message.
  6. Press the service pin button. Do this by inserting the end of a 5/64" (2.0 mm) flathead screwdriver, Allen wrench, or similar tool with a narrow end, approximately 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) into the small hole to the left of the LEDs (Figure 5).

At this point, the initialization process begins. See Table 1 and Table 2 for descriptions of BSP and BUS LED activity. Once both LEDs turn a steady green, the module is capable of communicating between both the unit controller and the LONWORKS network.

NOTE: Always cycle power to the unit controller after 1) commissioning a device, 2) de-commissioning an existing device, and 3) subsequent re-commissioning of an existing device.

Configuration

There are certain parameters that can be configured using the unit controller keypad/display. These variables are described in Table 3. As a general rule, the LONWORKS communication module does not require configuration unless advised by the network administrator.

NOTE: Receive Heartbeat, Max Send Time, and Min Send Time are typical parameters that may need to be changed for your network. They should be modified on an as-needed basis. Maintain default values if possible.

The following steps describe how to set Receive Heartbeat for your network. The same procedure can also be applied to Max Send Time and Min Send Time.

Enter Password

  1. If you have not already entered a password and are on the Main Menu, turn the circular knob on the unit controller (Figure 10) until Enter Password is highlighted from the menu list (Figure 11). If you have already entered a password, skip to Step 3.
  2. Select Enter Password by pressing down on the circular knob.

NOTE: If you are not at the Main Menu and need to enter a password, press the Back button from any other menu screen until you reach the Main Menu and then follow steps 1-3.

  1. Enter Password 5321 and then press Enter.

Troubleshooting and Parts

Follow these procedures if you are not able to communicate with the chiller via the network:

General

  • Review the Installation and Mounting section of this document to confirm that all procedures were followed correctly.
  • Review the Commissioning section of this document to confirm that all procedures were followed correctly.
  • If the communication module is installed but LEDs are not active when the unit controller is powered up, remove the module and then follow the steps provided in the Installing a new Communication Module section. If the issue persists, replace the module.
  • Verify that the LON Setup menu appears in the unit controller keypad/display. If it does not, follow this procedure:
    • Set the Unit On/Off Switch to "Off" from inside the control panel of the unit.
    • Remove power from the unit controller, wait 10 seconds, then re-power the chiller unit controller. Within 45 seconds, the unit controller should recognize the attached communication module, and will cycle power.
    • Verify that the LON Setup menu now appears in the unit controller keypad/display.

Network Wiring and Connections

  • Check for faulty cable connectors at the chiller LONWORKS communication module and throughout the network.
  • Determine if there is a network ground fault.
  • For network terminal connections, twist the wires together a minimum of three times.
  • Use only approved cable. Do not use different wire types on the same bus.
  • Follow the bus length limits for the cable type.
  • Confirm that you have the correct transceiver.
  • Make sure that the network trunk avoids strong sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI).
  • Verify that the network trunk is not located near a DC load switch (relay).

Bus Terminators

Errors from bus termination can have the following results:

  • Signal level too low could indicate the wrong bus terminator or too many terminators.
  • Signal level too high could indicate a high-level signal or signal reflections point due to a missing or wrong bus terminator, or that bus terminators are placed incorrectly.
  • Verify that the correct terminators are used based on your network topology.
    • Free topology should have a single 52.3 Ω bus terminator at busiest point of network.
    • Line topology should have two (2) 105 Ω bus terminators at both network ends.

Network Performance

  • If network traffic is slow, communication is intermittent, or the trunk is experiencing "noise," it may be necessary to use a network protocol analyzer or oscilloscope to determine the source of poor performance.
  • Confirm power is applied to the unit controller.
