Introduction

What is a VVT Zone Controller?


The VVT Zone Controller (#OPN-VVTZC), a component of the Open system by Carrier, controls zone
temperature in single duct, fan powered, Variable Volume and Temperature (VVT®) applications. The VVT
Zone Controller with built-in actuator maintains zone temperature by operating the terminal fan and
regulating the flow of conditioned air into the space. Buildings with diverse loading conditions can be
supported by controlling the air source heating and cooling sources or supplemental heat. The VVT Zone
Controller provides dedicated control functions for single duct and fan box terminals with modulating heat, up
to 2 stages of ducted heat, or combination baseboard and ducted heat.
The i-Vu System uses linkage to exchange data between the zone terminals and their air source to form a
coordinated HVAC system. The system's air source controller, zone controllers, and bypass controller are
linked so that their data exchange can be managed by one zone controller configured as the VVT Master.
The following illustration shows the VVT Zone Controller in a typical i-Vu System.

sensor is between 65°F and 80°F.

Linkage properties
The i-Vu System uses linkage to exchange data between the zone terminals and their air source to form a
coordinated HVAC system. The system's air source controller, zone controllers, and bypass controller are
linked so that their data exchange can be managed by one zone controller configured as the VVT Master. The
system can have a maximum of 31 zone controllers (VVT Master and slave controllers).
The linked controllers must be sequentially addressed. The VVT Master must have the highest address, the
bypass controller the next lower address, and then the slave zone controllers.
To set up linkage, you must define the properties below only for the VVT Master controller. If you are
configuring a slave controller, do not change any Linkage settings as the defaults are for a slave.
After you define the properties, the VVT Master immediately begins to send zone data to the air source and
receive information from the air source.

Performing system checkout


1 Verify that all power and communication connections are correct and tight.
2 Verify that all zone terminals, ductwork, and zone controllers are properly installed and set according to
installation instructions and job requirements.
3 Verify that all air duct connections are tight.
4 Verify that zone terminal fans and system controls operate properly. Verify that actuator screws are
properly tightened.
5 At the zone terminals, check electrical system and connections of any optional electric reheat coil. If hot
water reheat is used, check piping and valves against job drawings.
6 Verify that all zone terminal dampers are fully open.
7 If using an air source with field-installed controls, make sure controls and sensors have been installed
and wired per manufacturer installation instructions.
8 Verify that the air source motor starter and, if applicable, the Hand/Off/Auto (HOA) switch are installed
and wired.
9 Verify that the area around the air source is clear of construction dirt and debris.
10 Verify that final filters are installed in the air handler(s). Dust and debris can adversely affect system
operation.
11 Verify that the space sensor and all optional sensors are reading correctly.

Before starting the air source fan, make sure the zone terminal dampers are not closed. Starting the fan
with dampers closed will damage the system ductwork.

Start-up

Commissioning the VVT Zone Controller


Using Field Assistant or i-Vu:
1 Calibrate the damper travel.
a) Go to Properties > Configuration > Service Configuration > Pressure Dependent Control > Details
tab > Test and Balance. Click Calibrated Damper Close and verify it goes to the closed position.
b) Click Calibrated Damper Open and verify it travels to the full open.
c) Click Automatic Control to return the damper to normal operation.
2 For Parallel or Series Fan terminals – in the Locks section, select the Fan's Lock value to checkbox, then
select On in the droplist. Click Apply. Verify the fan's operation.
3 For modulating hot water reheat – Go to Properties > I/O Points tab, then lock Hot Water Valve to 100%.
If the controller is configured for Single Duct, make sure the air source fan is on. If ducted heat, verify the
heat works by verifying that the SAT rises. For baseboard heat, physically check the heating element for
proper temperature rise. Release the Hot Water Valve.
4 Release the fan.
5 If the controller is part of a linked system, verify Linkage > Airside Linkage Status shows Active.

CAUTION Pressing the actuator release button and moving the damper or disconnecting the actuator ribbon
connector while the bypass controller is powered will cause the damper position to be out of calibration. To
recalibrate the damper position, you must perform steps 1a–1c above or power cycle the controller.

Balancing the system


Most VVT system airflow designs are based on cooling requirements which require a greater CFM flow than
heating requirements. Using this balancing procedure, you will adjust the cooling airflow first. If the heating
and cooling maximum airflow requirements are the same, you will not need to balance the heating airflow.
NOTE We recommend that the heating minimum airflow settings for all the zones in the system be set to
maintain the air source’s design minimum heat CFM airflow across its heat exchanger to prevent damage to
the equipment.

Step 1: Prepare for balancing


1 Log in to i-Vu with an Administrator or Installer security level, or use Field Assistant.
2 Make sure the air source and its controller have been properly started and can run as a standalone unit.
3 Make sure the zone and bypass controllers have been addressed, commissioned, and started.
4 Verify that a manual damper is installed upstream of the zone damper. This damper will be used to
adjust the maximum design airflow to the space when the zone damper is at 100% open. We strongly
recommend that you do not use the damper Cool or Heat Max damper configuration setting for this
purpose. Exception: If the design maximum airflow for one mode is less the other, the maximum damper
position configuration may be used to adjust the designed airflow of that mode.
5 Verify that zone controllers supplying multiple registers have manual dampers on each register branch
duct for balancing the design airflow through each register.

VVT Zone Controller 33


Start-up

6 Disable the air source heating and cooling outputs using one of the following methods:
○ Physically disconnect the air source controller’s output wiring to the unit, then enable the fan.
○ In the i-Vu or Field Assistant tree, select the RTU Open or WSHP Open controller. Go to Properties >
Configuration > Service Configuration > Service Test and enable Service Test and Fan Test. Make
sure all other outputs are disabled.

Step 2: Balance each zone


1 In the i-Vu or Field Assistant tree, select the zone controller that is physically closest to the air source. Go
to Properties > Equipment > Configuration > Service Configuration > Pressure Dependent Control >
Details tab.
2 Do one of the following:
○ Single Duct or Parallel Fan zone terminals – Click Cool Max to override the zone damper to its
maximum open position. Check the zone for design cooling maximum airflow using certified
measuring devices. Make adjustments using the manual volume damper located upstream of the
zone damper.
○ Series Fan zone terminals – Click Damper Full Close to override the zone damper to its fully closed
position. Wait 30 seconds after the damper is closed, select the Fan's Lock value to checkbox, then
select On in the droplist. Click Apply. You must follow this procedure to prevent the fan from turning
backwards. When the fan starts, click Cool Max to open the zone damper to its maximum position.
Check the zone for design cooling maximum airflow using certified measuring devices. See the zone
terminal manufacturer's instructions to adjust the fan speed to meet design airflow requirements.
After you set the fan speed, verify that the zone terminal plenum air intakes do not have a positive
airflow. If so, adjust the manual volume damper located upstream of the zone damper so that the
airflow is not positive or negative.
Note the zone’s name in the tree. You will need it when setting the system static pressure setpoint.
3 Check all branch duct terminal registers for design flow. If necessary, adjust the manual volume dampers
in the branch ducts.
4 On the zone’s Pressure Dependent Control > Details tab, click Cool Min to set the zone damper to its
cooling minimum position. Type the desired damper position next to Cool Min to adjust the airflow to the
design value. If you do not have a design value, set the value to no less the 10% for minimum ventilation.
5 Parallel Fan Zone Terminals only - To adjust Parallel Fan airflow, make sure Cool Min is active, select the
Fan's Lock value to checkbox, then select On in the droplist. Click Apply. See the zone terminal
manufacturer's instructions on adjusting the fan speed to meet design airflow requirements. When
finished, clear the Fan's Lock value to checkbox.
6 Click Vent to set the zone damper to its ventilation position. Type the desired damper position next to
Vent to adjust the airflow to the design value. If you do not have a design value, leave the value at 50%
for minimum ventilation.
7 Series Fan Zone Terminals only - If the zone maximum heating airflow design requirements are the same
as cooling, the Heating Max Damper Position should be 100%, same as the Cooling Max Damper
Position. If the heating requirement is less than the cooling requirement, type the appropriate value in
Heating Max Damper Position per the design requirements.
8 If the terminal has ducted reheat, click Reheat Min to force the zone to its reheat damper position. Type
the desired damper position next to Reheat Min to adjust the airflow to its design reheat position.
9 If the zone maximum heating airflow design requirements are the same as cooling, skip this step. If they
are less than cooling, click Heat Max to force the zone to its maximum heating position. Check the zone
for design heating maximum airflow using certified measuring devices. Type the damper position next to
Heat Max.
10 To set the heating minimum airflow, click Heat Min, then type the damper position. We recommend that
the sum of this setting for all zones in the system be equal to the minimum heat CFM requirements of
the air source.
11 Repeat steps 1 through 10 for each zone until all zones have been balanced.

34 VVT Zone Controller


Start-up

Step 3: Set the system static pressure


For the air source to deliver the required airflow, you must set the bypass controller's static pressure setpoint
high enough to provide the demand but low enough to maintain reasonable noise levels. The bypass
controller maintains static pressure by controlling a damper or a supply fan VFD. You need the following data
to set the static pressure:
• The air source’s design maximum airflow in CFM (manufacturer’s data)
• The system’s design external static pressure (inches or water). This is the amount of static pressure that
the air source is designed to deliver at its maximum design airflow in CFM (supplied by the mechanical
design engineer).
• The maximum cooling or heating (whichever is greater) CFM requirements for all zones connected to the
air source
NOTE The air source fan must have been tested and certified that it can deliver the above requirements.
The sum of the maximum CFM requirements of all zones will generally exceed the air source's maximum CFM
rating by 10 to 20%. This is by design and based on a factor known as diversity. It works on the basis that
under normal design heating and cooling conditions, not every zone will be 100% open. Knowing this, you will
need to force open only zones whose sum CFM is equal to the unit design CFM. With the bypass damper fully
closed (0%) or supply fan VFD at 100%, the bypass controller's static pressure should be the controlling
setpoint.
To set the static pressure:
1 Starting with zone farthest from the air source and working towards it, add up the maximum design CFM
airflow of the zones until the sum equals the air source’s design CFM (+/-5%). Note each zone that you
included.
2 For each zone noted in step 1, go to Properties > Equipment > Configuration > Service Configuration >
Pressure Dependent Control > Details tab. Click Cool Max or Heat Max (whichever has the highest
design max airflow) to force the damper to its maximum open position.
3 In the tree, select the Bypass controller, then go to Properties > Equipment > Status. Note the Static
Pressure value, then go to Unit Configuration > Bypass Control > Details tab.
○ If Damper Position is 0% or VFD Output is 100%, enter the static pressure in the Duct Static
Pressure Setpoint field.
○ If the Damper Position is not 0% or VFD Output is not 100%, enter the static pressure +.1” in the
Duct Static Pressure Setpoint field. Wait 1–2 minutes, then verify that the Damper Position is 0% or
VFD Output is 100%. If not, repeat the process, adding .05” to the previous Duct Static Pressure
Setpoint until the Damper Position is 0% or VFD Output is 100%.
4 For each zone in the system that was balanced, go to its Pressure Dependent Control > Details tab, then
click Automatic Control to return the zone to normal control.
5 In the tree, select the air source controller, then do one of the following.
a) For an RTU Open or WSHP Open controller, go to Properties > Equipment > Configuration > Service
Configuration > Service Test and disable Service Test and Fan Test.
b) For any equipment whose wiring was disconnected to insure that only the fan only was running,
reconnect it the wires for normal operation.

CAUTION You must complete steps 4 and 5 to prevent loss of temperature control to the space and to
maintain normal operation of the system.

VVT Zone Controller 35


Sequence of operation

Sequence of operation
The VVT Zone Controller supports 3 types of pressure-dependent terminal configurations:
• Single duct
• Series fan-powered
• Parallel fan-powered
The controller can operate as part of a linked VVT system or as a stand-alone controller.

Temperature sensors
The VVT Zone Controller supports the following temperature sensors:

Sensors Notes
Space temperature sensors:
• SPT Standard, Plus, or Pro You can average up to 5 SPT communicating sensors.

• T55 Push the sensor's override button from 2 to 10 seconds to initiate a


timed override.
If a network space temperature value is used, that value must be
written to the BACnet space temperature point (system_spt) at 1 to
5 minute intervals or on a COV of 0.1°F.

Duct temperature sensors:


• Duct Air Temperature (DAT) 10K Type II.
If the zone does not have ducted reheat, install a DAT sensor on the
inlet of the damper.
• Supply Air Temperature (SAT) If the zone has ducted reheat, install an SAT sensor downstream of
the reheat source. The SAT is used in controlling the reheat.
The DAT/SAT determines the air source mode if Linkage
communication fails or if the controller is stand-alone. See "Local
Air Source Mode Determination" in Linkage (page 41) for details.

See the Carrier Sensors Installation Guide for details on these sensors.

Zone airflow control


The VVT Zone Controller provides pressure-dependent zone temperature control by modulating its built-in
damper actuator to control the flow of primary air into the zone. The controller uses PID control to calculate
the damper position based on the difference between the zone’s temperature and setpoints.
The air source mode determines if the primary air can meet the zone’s need. If the zone controller is in a
linked system, the air source mode is determined by the air source. If the zone controller is stand-alone or if

36 VVT Zone Controller


Sequence of operation

linkage communication fails, the mode is determined by the controller's SAT. See Air source mode
determination (page 42). If the air source mode is the same as the zone’s local mode, the damper is
positioned between the mode’s configurable minimum and maximum damper position. If not, the damper is
positioned at the mode's minimum damper position to insure sufficient minimum airflow at the air source.
When the air source mode is Vent and the zone’s temperature demand is satisfied, the damper moves to its
Vent Position to increase airflow and ventilation to the space.

Single duct with reheat – The Reheat Min Damper Position allows an increase of primary airflow across the
terminal’s ducted heating coil when the terminal is operating its local heat while the air source mode is Cool.
This provides the ability to lower the cooling minimum airflow limits while providing the necessary airflow
when the terminal is heating to ensure design load conditions and electric heater minimum airflow.

Parallel fan terminals – The controller's Parallel Fan On Value determines when the fan turns on to increase
airflow at the zone’s diffusers and prevent cold air from dumping into the zone when the system mode is Cool.
This is achieved by increasing the volume and temperature of the air exiting the diffusers. Should the zone’s
damper close below the Parallel Fan On Value, the parallel fan is energized to mix ceiling plenum air with the
primary air to increase total airflow and ventilation to the zone. The fan turns off when the damper position
opens to 1% above the setpoint.
The fan also starts in Heat mode if the zone is configured for ducted heat as described in Zone reheat control
(page 37).

Series fan terminals – The fan energizes when the air source fan is on if the zone controller is part of a linked
system or in the unoccupied heat mode and the equipment fan is off. If the zone controller is stand-alone, the
fan runs continuously. Before the fan starts, the damper closes. The damper position must be less than 5%
for 10 seconds before the fan starts to prevent the fan from starting backwards.
See Appendix B: VVT terminal modes (page 61).

Damper Actuator(s) – The VVT Zone Controller's built-in 35 in/lb actuator has a 205 second full travel time
for 90° operation. For field retrofit applications, the actuator can be adjusted for a damper stroke between
30° and 90°, and it can be configured to move clockwise (default) or counterclockwise.
If the built-in actuator's torque is insufficient for large damper applications, the VVT Zone Controller's analog
output can drive an external, 0-10 volt, high-torque actuator. Or, the controller can drive one or more
additional slave actuators. A slave actuator must be mounted and configured to fully close the damper when
the output signal is 0 volts. See Wiring field-supplied actuators to the analog output. (page 25)

Zone reheat control


The VVT Zone Controller can be configured for one of the following Heat Types to meet the zone's heating
requirements:
• Modulating Hot Water/Steam
• Two Position Hot Water/Steam
• Staged Electric Heat (2 stages)
• Combination Modulating Baseboard/Staged Electric Heat (2 stages)
All of the above except Combination Modulating Baseboard/Staged Electric Heat can be ducted or non-
ducted (baseboard). For ducted heat and Combination Modulating Baseboard/Staged Electric Heat, an SAT
sensor (33ZCSENSAT) must be installed in the duct downstream of the heat source. The controller has a
configurable Maximum Heating SAT for supply air temperature control. The zone controller monitors the (SAT)
when the terminal’s ducted heat is operating.
If the network provides the OAT, heating can be disabled if the OAT rises above the configured Heating
Lockout Temperature.

VVT Zone Controller 37


Sequence of operation

Modulating Hot Water / Steam Heating Heat – The controller modulates a normally closed or normally open
hot water or steam valve connected to the discharge air heating coil. The valve opens and closes as needed
to meet heating requirements. For ducted heat, the terminal’s heat supplements heat from the primary air
source if it is in heating mode and is controlled so that the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating SAT
(105°F default). For baseboard heating (non-ducted heat), the valve modulates to keep the zone’s
temperature at the heating setpoint.

Two-Position Hot Water / Steam Heating Heat – The controller operates a normally closed or normally open
hot water or steam valve connected to the discharge air heating coil. The valve opens and closes as needed
to meet heating requirements. For ducted heat, the terminal’s heat supplements heat from the primary air
source if it is in the heating mode and is controlled so that the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating
SAT (105°F default). For non-ducted (baseboard) heating, the valve is controlled to keep the zone’s
temperature at the heating setpoint.

Electric Auxiliary Heat – The controller operates 1 or 2 stages of electric heat. For ducted heat, the terminal’s
heat supplements heat from the primary air source if it is in the heating mode and is controlled so that the
SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating SAT (105°F default). For non-ducted (baseboard) electric heat,
the stages are controlled as needed to keep the zone’s temperature at the heating setpoint.

Combination Modulating Baseboard / Electric Heat – The controller can modulate a normally closed or
normally open hot water or steam valve connected to a perimeter baseboard radiation system and control up
to 2 stages of ducted electric heat. The valve modulates as needed to meet heating requirements. If the valve
cannot meet the load, electric heat is used. The terminal’s electric heater supplements heat from the primary
air source if it is in heating mode and is controlled so that the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating
SAT (105°F default).

Parallel Fan Heat On Delay – For Parallel Fan terminals only, the controller has a configurable Parallel Fan
Heat On Delay to save energy. During the delay (15 minute default), only the fan operates to recycle heat
from the ceiling plenum. If the heating requirement is not met by the end of the delay, reheat is enabled.

Fan Heat Off Delay – For fan-powered terminals, the controller has a configurable Fan Off Delay. After the
heating coil de-energizes, the fan continues to run for the length of the delay to deliver to the zone any heat
stored in the coil. The default delay of 2 minutes is optimal for ducted hot water coils. For ducted electric heat
coils, the nominal delay is approximately 1 minute. For baseboard and non-ducted heat, the delay should be
set at 0.
This feature applies to parallel fan terminals in both occupied and unoccupied mode and series fan terminals
in the unoccupied mode if the air source fan is off.

Demand control ventilation (DCV) or dehumidification using optional


sensors
The VVT Zone Controller’s RH/CO2 input supports an optional CO2 sensor or Relative Humidity (RH) sensor.
The sensor can have a 5-volt maximum output. The range is configurable as either 0–5 or 1–5 volts (1–5 volt
supports 4–20 mA sensors with a 250 ohm resistor). The controller's low and high sensor input configuration
allows for a wide range of sensors.

Demand Control Ventilation (DCV) – Requires CO2 sensor


The zone controller monitors the CO2 sensor and can override the temperature control to respond to
increasing CO2 levels when the zone is occupied. If the sensor’s value exceeds the DCV Start Ctrl Setpoint

38 VVT Zone Controller


Sequence of operation

and the air source is in cooling or ventilation mode, the controller increases airflow to the zone at a base rate
defined by ASHRAE, and then proportionally increases ventilation if the CO2 level continues to increase. If the
sensor's value exceeds the DCV Max Ctrl Setpoint, the controller modulates the damper to its DCV Max Vent
Damper Position.
When the zone is unoccupied, the Cooling Min Damper Position and Heating Min Damper Position provide
base ventilation.
If the controller is configured for reheat, the heating setpoint is temporarily increased to a value halfway
between the heating and cooling setpoints. If the zone temperature drops below the heating setpoint, the DCV
override is temporarily suspended and the damper returns to normal control until the zone temperature is
satisfied.

Dehumidification – Requires RH sensor


The zone controller monitors the RH sensor and can provide dehumidification if the sensor's value exceeds
the Occupied RH Control Setpoint. If the zone is occupied and does not require heating, and the air source is
operating in a cooling mode and providing primary air with a sufficiently low dew point, the controller
overrides the damper control to increase airflow to the zone. During the dehumidification mode, the heating
setpoint is temporarily increased to a value halfway between the heating and cooling setpoints to prevent
overcooling the zone. The controller uses a PID control loop to provide dehumidification. The controller has a
Maximum RH Override Airflow setting to prevent excessive airflow during dehumidification.

Occupancy
The VVT Zone Controller's operation depends on the zone's occupancy state as determined by occupancy
schedules or a remote occupancy override.

Occupancy Schedules – An occupancy schedule can be one of the following:


• A local schedule set up directly in the controller using a BACview or Field Assistant.
• A network schedule from an i-Vu Server. The VVT Zone Controller must be networked to an i-Vu Open
Router or an i-Vu Server internal router.
To set up occupancy schedules, you first define a schedule for each day of the week and then define
schedules for the exceptions, such as holidays. The exceptions can be based on a date, a date range, or a
week and day.
NOTES
• The Occupancy Schedules property must be enabled (default).
• A network schedule downloaded from i-Vu will overwrite a local schedule that was set up in a BACview or
Field Assistant.

Remote Occupancy Override – The controller monitors its Remote input that is typically connected to the
isolated, dry contact of an occupancy sensor located in the zone. The controller can override the occupancy
state based on whether or not the space is actually occupied. If the occupancy sensor contact is in the same
state as Occ Override Normal Logic State setting, the zone follows its normal occupancy schedule. If the
contact is in the opposite state, it overrides the zone into the unoccupied mode. The input can be configured
for normally closed or normally opened contact types and is set to Open by default so that it does not affect
the controller occupancy operation if left unused.

Optimal Start – This function gradually adjusts the unoccupied setpoints over a specified period of time to
achieve the occupied setpoint by the time scheduled occupancy begins. This learning adaptive algorithm uses
Heating Capacity and Cooling Capacity to calculate the effective setpoints prior to the occupied start time.
The algorithm will calculate a learned cooling and heating capacity during the previous unoccupied time for
display purpose only but will not actually use them in the calculation. These values must be manually entered

VVT Zone Controller 39


Sequence of operation

into the Heating Capacity and Cooling Capacity. The Optimal Start adjustment period can be set from 1 to 4
hours, or set to 0 to disable this function.

Alarms
Space Temp Sensor Alarm – The VVT Zone Controller monitors each space temperature sensor and the
network input for space temperature. If no valid space temperature value is available, the controller
generates an alarm and disables all local heating or cooling. The controller modulates the damper to the
minimum heat, minimum cool, or ventilation position based on the air source mode. Normal operation
resumes when the controller detects a valid sensor value.

Space Temperature Alarm – The controller generates an alarm if the space temperature exceeds the alarm
setpoint. The occupied alarm setpoint is the configurable Occupied Alarm Hysteresis (5°F default) subtracted
from and added to the configured occupied heat and cool setpoints. The configurable unoccupied high and
low alarm setpoints have a fixed 10 minute alarm delay. When a transition from unoccupied to occupied
occurs or the occupied temperature setpoints are changed causing an alarm condition, the controller
automatically calculates an alarm delay of 10 minutes for each degree of change. The delay prevents
unnecessary alarms and gives the zone time to correct the alarm condition. The alarm returns to normal
when the space temperature goes between the current mode’s setpoints.

Supply Air Temperature Alarm – The controller generates an alarm if the SAT exceeds the configured High
SAT Alarm Limit (120°F default) or falls below the Low SAT Alarm Limit (45°F default) for more than 5
minutes. The hysteresis for return to normal is 1°F.

Space Relative Humidity Alarm – If a Space Relative Humidity (RH) sensor is installed, the controller
generates an alarm if the sensor's value exceeds the Occ High RH Alarm Limit (100% rh default) or the Unocc
High RH Alarm Limit (100% rh default). The controller provides a 30-minute alarm delay during unoccupied
periods. During occupied periods, the controller uses the Occ High RH Alarm Limit. When a transition from
unoccupied to occupied occurs or the occupied high alarm limit is lowered causing an alarm condition to
occur, the controller automatically calculates an alarm delay of 5 minutes per %RH multiplied by the amount
of the change. The delay prevents unnecessary alarms and gives the zone time to correct the alarm condition.
The hysteresis for return to normal is 3% RH.

Indoor Air Quality Alarm – If a CO2 sensor is installed, the controller generates an alarm during occupied
periods if the sensor's value exceeds the Occupied High CO2 Alarm Limit. When a transition from unoccupied
to occupied occurs, or if the occupied alarm limit is changed to a value that causes an alarm condition to
occur, the controller automatically calculates an alarm delay based on the error from setpoint (15 minutes
minimum, 4 hours maximum). The delay prevents unnecessary alarms and gives the zone time to correct the
alarm condition. To disable the IAQ alarm, set Occupied High CO2 Alarm Limit to 0. The default value is
1100ppm. The hysteresis for return to normal is 100ppm.

Filter Alarm – For series or parallel fan-powered terminals, the controller monitors the accumulated hours of
fan operation and generates an alarm when the Filter Runtime hours exceed the configured Filter Service
Alarm Timer limit. The default value is 0 hours which disables the alarm. The alarm can be reset by setting
Reset Filter Alarm to On or resetting the configured alarm limit to 0 hours.

Airside Linkage Alarm – The slave zone controller generates an alarm if it does not receive linkage
information for 5 minutes. If the controller is the VVT Master, it generates an alarm if it does not communicate
with its air source for 5 minutes. A return-to-normal is generated after successful Linkage communication
resumes.

40 VVT Zone Controller


Sequence of operation

Demand limiting
Demand limiting is a cost-saving strategy to reduce energy consumption. The strategy expands the setpoints
when the system reaches one of 3 levels of consumption. With the expanded setpoints, the equipment works
less, thereby saving energy.
If the VVT Zone Controller receives a demand limit signal through the network, it expands its setpoints based
on the demand level. The default amount is 1°F for demand level 1, 2°F for demand level 2, or 4°F for
demand level 3.

Linkage
The i-Vu System uses linkage to exchange data between the zone terminals and their air source to form a
coordinated HVAC system. The system's air source controller, zone controllers, and bypass controller are
linked so that their data exchange can be managed by one zone controller configured as the VVT Master.
The VVT Master gathers the following information from the slave zone controllers: occupancy status,
setpoints, zone temperature, relative humidity, CO2 level, damper position, and optimal start data. The VVT
Master performs mathematical calculations and algorithms on the data and then sends the composite
information to the air source. The VVT Master receives information from the air source such as mode, supply
air temperature, and outside air temperature, and passes that information to all linked controllers.
The VVT Master determines system operation by prioritizing heating and cooling requirements from all the
zones based on their occupancy, demand, and damper size. The VVT Master scans the system continuously
to determine if any zones are occupied. Occupied zones are a higher priority than unoccupied zones. The VVT
Master evaluates all the occupied zones' heating or cooling demands and sends a request to the air source
for:
• Cooling, if the number of occupied zones with cooling demands exceeds the number of occupied zones
with heating demands, and the demand is greater than or equal to the number of configured Linkage
Callers.
• Heating, if the number of occupied zones with a heating demand exceeds or is equal to the number of
Linkage Callers.
If no zones are occupied or no occupied zones require heating or cooling, the VVT Master performs the
evaluation described above for the unoccupied zones.
The VVT Master then gathers the following information and sends it to the air source:
• The system mode
• The setpoints and zone temperature from the zone with the greatest demand for the requested air
source mode (heating or cooling). (This zone is called the reference zone.)
• The system occupancy status
• Most open damper position from any zone
• RH and CO2 values (if applicable)
The air source responds by sending the air source mode, supply air temperature, and outside air temperature.
The air source verifies the mode by comparing its supply air temperature to the space temperature received
through Linkage. See the air source documentation for operation and parameters used to verify its mode.
This verification allows the VVT system to determine if the desired air source mode is actually being provided.
For example, if the VVT Master sends a request for heating and the air source does not have heat or it’s heat
has failed, the air source's actual mode indicates that and it's current mode is sent to the zones so that they
can control accordingly.
The system remains in that mode until all zones of that demand are satisfied or until a fixed 30 minute mode
reselect timer causes a forced re-evaluation of the system. If there is no demand for the opposite mode, the
reselect timer starts again and the current mode continues until all zones are satisfied or until the reselect
timer expires, repeating the process. If there is a demand for the opposite mode, the VVT Master sends the
reference zone's space temperature and setpoints to the air source and restarts the reselect timer. The air
source re-evaluates its demand based on the new information and goes to the Vent mode until the new mode

VVT Zone Controller 41


Sequence of operation

can be verified as described above. The amount of time this takes is determined by the air source’s operating
parameters.
The VVT Master continuously evaluates the system and updates the air source with the most current system
demand. Based on the evaluation, the reference zone can change from one zone to another. The evaluation
process continues until there is no demand from any zone or the 30 minute timer causes a re-evaluation of
the system conditions.
If no heating or cooling is required or the current air source mode is satisfied, the VVT Master calculates the
weighted average of the occupied and unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints. It also calculates a zone
temperature that is midway between the setpoints (occupied or unoccupied based on the system’s current
occupancy status). This information, plus the occupancy status, is sent to the air source so that its current
mode is disabled and the unit ceases heating or cooling operation. If the system is occupied, the air source
fan and OA damper, if applicable, operate to maintain proper ventilation.

Air source mode determination


Linked air source modes – In a linked system, the air source determines its operating mode and qualifies
that mode based on its own SAT. The following modes can be sent by the air source depending on its
configuration:
• OFF – Air source fan is off.
• WARMUP – Air source fan is on and providing first cycle of heat when changing from unoccupied to
occupied.
• HEAT – Air source fan is on and providing heat.
• FREECOOL – Air source fan is on and providing cooling using economizer only.
• COOL – Air source fan is on, and cooling is provided by economizer and mechanical cooling.
• PRESSURIZATION – Fire-Life safety override input is active. Air source fan is on providing 100 percent
outside air. Mechanical heating and cooling may be disabled.
• EVACUATION/SHUTDOWN – Fire-Life safety override input is active. Air source fan is off.
• VENT – Air source fan is on, economizer providing ventilation without heating or cooling, providing neutral
supply air temperature.
See the air source’s installation manual for specific operation.

Local air source modes – If the zone controller is stand-alone or if linkage communication fails, the zone
controller monitors its SAT sensor to determine if the primary air source is providing heating, cooling, or
recirculating air in a fan-only or ventilation mode.
• HEAT – For Series or Parallel Fan controllers when the zone terminal fan is off or for single duct
controllers: The zone’s local heat has not operated for at least 5 minutes, and the SAT is more than 5°F
warmer than the space temperature. If the terminal fan is on, the SAT must be at least 8°F more than
the space temperature.
In all cases, Heat mode is maintained until the SAT drops 2°F below the space temperature.
• VENT – The zone’s local heat has not operated for at least 5 minutes and the SAT is between 65 and
80°F.
• COOL – The zone’s local heat has not operated for at least 5 minutes, the current mode is not Heat or
Vent, and the SAT is less than 65°F.

See Appendix B: VVT terminal modes (page 61).

Support.

Possible delay before control program starts


When you first apply power to the VVT Zone Controller, it waits for up to 3 minutes to receive a time/date
broadcast from its BACnet router. The VVT Zone Controller begins to run the control program only after it
receives the time/date or when the 3 minute waiting period expires. If the VVT Zone Controller does not
receive a time/date broadcast, it keeps the default setting of 6/12/2002 10:00:00 (am).

Occupied Setpoints
The occupied setpoints described below are the setpoints under normal operating conditions. The Demand Level 1–3
setpoints apply if demand limiting is used.
Demand limiting is a cost-saving strategy to reduce energy consumption. The strategy expands the occupied heating and
cooling setpoints when the system reaches one of 3 levels of consumption. With the expanded setpoints, the equipment
works less, thereby saving energy. By default, Demand Level 1 expands the occupied heating and cooling setpoints by 1°F,
Demand Level 2 by 2°F, and Demand Level 3 by 4°F. If the occupied heating or cooling setpoints change, the (effective)
demand level setpoints automatically change by the same amount. See Sequence of Operation (page 36) for more
