Operator Interfaces
In order to confi gure and program the Orion System controllers, you
must have an Operator’s Interface or a personal computer with the Prism
II computer front-end software installed. Three different Operator Inter-
faces are available for programming of the Orion Controls System—the
Modular Service Tool SD, the Modular System Manager (VCM-X and
VAV/Zone Controllers only), and/or the System Manager TS II. These
devices allow you to access the status and setpoints of the controllers on
your communications loop. This manual describes the Modular Service
Tool SD. If using the Modular System Manager or System Manager TS
II, please see the VCM-X / RNE Operator Interfaces Technical Guide
or the System Manager TS II Technical Guide. If using Prism II, please
see the Prism II Technical Guide.
The Modular Service Tool allows you to view any input or output status
and change any setpoint to fi ne-tune the operations of the total system.
All keypad operations are simple and straightforward, utilizing non-
cryptic plain English messages.
