Sensor Trim

Corrective offsets can be applied to the space temperature and the

supply air temperature sensor readings. These corrections are set in
the ConfigurationTRIM menu for the display, or in the

MaintenanceTRIM table for CCN. See the Indoor Air Quality

section for available adjustments to IAQ and OAQ sensor readings.

The space temperature may be corrected by entering either a
calibration temperature value in SPT.C, or an offset temperature

value in SPT.T. The supply-air temperature may be corrected by

entering either a calibration temperature value in SAT.C, or an
offset temperature value in SAT.T. The return--air temperature may

be corrected by entering either a calibration temperature value in
RAT.C or an offset temperature value in RAT.T. Temperature

corrections should only be made if sensor readings are compared to

an accurate reference temperature measurement device.

Transducer Troubleshooting

The electronic control uses suction pressure transducers to measure

the suction pressure of the refrigerant circuits. The pressure/voltage
characteristics of these transducers are in shown in Table 18, the

5vdc power is applied to legs A and B of the transducer and legs B

to C represent the voltage drop shown in the table. The accuracy of
these transducers can be verified by connecting an accurate

pressure gauge to the second refrigerant port in the suction line.

Forcing Inputs and Outputs

Many variables may have their value forced through CCN or

directly at the local display. This can be useful during diagnostic

testing and also during operation, typically as part of an advanced
third party control scheme. Input and output points that may be

forced are indicated as ‘forcible’ in the write status column of the
display and CCN tables.
If the user needs to force a variable, follow the same process as
when editing a configuration parameter. A forced variable will be

displayed on the Scrolling Marquee with a blinking period “.”

following its value. A forced value on Navigator™ accessory is

indicated with a blinking “f”. A forced value on CCN devices is

indicated with “Control” if forced at the unit display, or
“Supervisor” if forced via CCN. To remove a local force with the

Scrolling Marquee, select the point with the ENTER key and then

press the up--arrow and down-arrow keys simultaneously.
IMPORTANT: In the case of a control power reset, any force in
effect at the time of power reset will be cleared.
