Please note:

-

0 to 100 % is directly converted to 0 to 10 VDC on the VAV damper output. If the actuator has a
positioning input range of 2 to 10 VDC, then entering 50% minimum position is not directly
converted to 50% VAV damper position. Please refer to table below

The damper position is never linear or proportional to airflow in a pressure dependent application.
Depending on how the zone damper was sized, a box may best slightly oversized, or slightly
undersized. In all cases, the PI loop (Proportional Integral) of the zone controller will always
compensate to find the proper required position to satisfy the current zone demand.

Be sure the VAV actuator is properly installed and set-up so the VAV damper blade is able to
rotate from the fully opened, to fully closed position with no restriction to its mechanical rotation.










2F) Terminal Reheat Lockout


It is possible to lockout out the local terminal reheat function of the zones during hot seasons or when no
longer required. This prevents users from using the local reheat function simply based on a configured
outside air temperature value.

If RehtConf is set to

AO2 OALK
