OITS rev. 2 Memory Map Upgrade Procedure

Anytime the MicroTech II centrifugal controller software is upgraded, the OITS memory mapping table (plan.csv) must be upgraded as well. The reason for this requirement is that whenever the MicroTech II software is modified, the memory addresses also get modified. These memory addresses tell the OITS panel where to get specific data for such things as Suction, Discharge, Oil Pressure, Compressor amps, Alarms and other important parameters. Failure to upgrade the memory map table will result in incorrect data being displayed. The following procedure is for upgrading the memory mapping file for the new OITS rev. 2 style display using a USB memory stick. Equipment Required 1) One USB memory stick with the updated plan.csv file loaded into its root directory. (256K or larger preferably with Light Emitting Diode (LED) located on end for easy viewing) Procedure 1. Follow this procedure after you have programmed the MicroTech II controllers. (Refer to Service Bulletin Number 20-0352-B for instructions on upgrading the software for the MicroTech II controllers.) Plug the USB memory stick into one of the USB ports located on the OITSs computer board (see below). Wait a few minutes (at least 2) before proceeding to next step so as to allow the OITS computer to recognize the USB memory stick. The LED on the USB memory stick should be at a steady state condition (ON and not blinking) before proceeding to next step.

3.

On the OITS display, access the SERVICE screen. You can access the SERVICE screen from the main unit view screen by pressing the key twice.

4.

Verify that the nodes (OITS, unit, and compressor controllers) indicators are green. This indicates that communication is occurring through the UCM (Universal Communication Module). Should be green (Example of dual compressor unit addressed as Chiller A)

5.

Once it is verified that the UCM is communicating with the nodes, press the key.

6.

Observe on the SERVICE screen in the lower left hand corner, above the LOAD UCM key, what versions of software are being displayed.

Checksum (not shown) Software version (values shown are for reference only) When the OITS has finished transferring the memory map file from the USB memory stick (about 45 seconds), the software version adjacent to UCM will match the unit and compressor controllers software version. 7. Once the above is confirmed remove the USB memory stick. You are done.
