Modular Service Tool Override Search

When a space sensor with override option is used with any VAV/Zone
or Unit Controller, the Modular Service Tool can determine and report
any controllers that are currently operating in an override condition on
a specifi c Loop by entering a Loop ID number and then doing a search.

NOTE:

When you press the

button on the

Modular Service Tool, it will search only the Loop
number that you enter; therefore, you must search each
loop individually to access all overrides.

To access the Overrides Screen, press

from the

Modular Service Tool’s keypad. A screen will appear asking you to
enter the unit ID.

Unit Selection
Enter Unit ID#

Selected ID#: 160

*00*

Enter the Unit ID for the MiniLink PD (MLPD) of the loop you wish
to search. and press

. The MLPD is always address 60 on

each loop. So the unit ID of any particular MLPD would be the loop
number followed by 60. In the example above, Loop 1, address 60 has
been entered. Once communication is established, the *00* message
will go away. Then

press

<

>

.

NOTE:

If the *00* remains, it indicates a communication failure

to the controller.

If communications are successful, one of the following screens will
appear:

RNE or VCMX V.XXX

NO OVERRIDES

RNE or VCMX V.XXX

OVERRIDES PRESENT

SCROLL DOWN TO VIEW

After the Service Tool completes its search, it will post a message to
tell you if there are overrides present. If there are overrides, press

<

>

and all units on the loop will be listed showing ‘Override: Yes or No.’
Press

again to access overrides on a different loop.

Enter the Unit ID of the MLPD of that loop.
