Description

Pressure setpoint

-1.00 to

+1.00 in WC
(-249 to +249Pa)

-0.10 in. WC

(-24.9Pa)

Pressure setting the control will maintain. Only available in [Pressure

Mode]

and when [Local Setpoint] is selected.

Airflow setpoint

Airflow setting the control will maintain. Only available in Airflow mode

and when [Local Setpoint] is selected.

Cutout %

*

20 – 100%

20%

When the output value falls below this setting, the output will turn off

after the delay time has elapsed. This is used to turn the primary fan

off in times of no demand. Only available in [Pressure mode].

Cutout delay time

0-300 seconds 30 seconds

The output value must be below the cutout threshold for this amount

of time before the fan will turn off.

Only available in [Pressure mode].

Cutout return

+ 62.27Pa)

inlet mode:

0.01 in. WC

(2.49Pa)
outlet mode:

-0.01 in. WC

(2.49Pa)

This is the threshold that the secondary fan(s) output must pass for

the primary fan to turn back on while in cutout mode.
• Inlet Mode: Measured static pressure must be more positive than

the return from cutout value.

• Outlet Mode: Measured static pressure must be more negative than

the return from cutout value.

Only available in [Pressure mode].

0, 20-100%

100%

When the digital input is closed, the fan output will be set to this value

until the digital input is opened.

Minimum

output %

20-100%

20%

Sets the minimum output value of the controller during [Run] mode.

Maximum

output %

20-100%

100%

Sets the maximum output value of the controller during [Run] mode.

Digital output

20-100%

20% (pressure

mode) 97%

(airflow mode)

The digital (relay) output will close when the fan output is above this

value. Useful as a dirty filter switch in [Constant Airflow] mode.

More Information about the cutout feature:

• The cutout % value is only valid for a discreet

pressure set point. If the pressure setpoint is
changed, the cutout % must be adjusted as well.
Make sure the pressure setpoint is correct before
continuing to set the cutout.

• Steps to determine cutout %:

o Verify pressure setpoint is correct and that the

entire system is in the state where it is desired
for the fan to turn off (such as no secondary fans
operating).

o While viewing the display of the control, make

sure that the Output % value is shown. If not,
touch the up/down arrow on the control until the
Output % value is shown.

o After the pressure has stabilized at the setpoint

(usually 2-3 mins), take note of the Output %.
The value will fluctuate slightly, a mental average
is adequate.

o The recommended cutout value is 1-2 percentage

points above the value noted in the previous
step.

o EXAMPLE: With no secondary fans in the system

operating, the controller is running the primary
fan at 43.5% to maintain the pressure setpoint.
The cutout value is set at 45%. Now, any time
that the output of the control drops below 45%
(after the cutout delay time has elapsed) the fan
will turn off.

• When the Output % is less than the Cutout %, the

LED on the control will flash Yellow, signaling that
the Cutout Delay Timer has started. When the
Cutout Delay Time has elapsed, the LED will turn
solid Yellow and the Output % will show OFF.

• Troubleshooting:

o If the fan will not turn off when desired, the

cutout value is set too low.

o If the fan turns off when it is not desired, the

cutout value is set too high.

o If the fan turns off as desired, but does not turn

back on when desired:
- The cutout return pressure setpoint can be

adjusted up or down to match the system
needs.

- A pressure change must be present. If there

is nothing upstream/downstream of the
fan that will force a pressure change in the
system then the fan will not come back on
and the cutout feature should not be used.
