Features of the Control Panel
• Control of leaving chilled water within a ±0.5°F (±0.3°C) tolerance. Systems with a large water
volume and relatively slow load changes can do better.
• Readout of the following temperature and pressure readings:
• Entering and leaving chilled water temperature
• Entering and leaving condenser water temperature
• Saturated evaporator refrigerant temperature and pressure
• Saturated condenser temperature and pressure
• Suction line, liquid line and discharge line temperatures - calculated superheat for discharge
and suction lines – calculated subcooling for liquid line
• Oil sump temperature - oil feed temperature and pressure
• Optional condenser heat recovery temperature
• Automatic control of primary and standby evaporator and condenser pumps.
• Control of up to 4 stages of cooling tower fans plus modulating bypass valve and/or tower fan
VFD.
• The controller will store and display key historic operating data for recall in a graphic format on
the screen. Data can also be exported for archival purposes via a USB port.
• Three levels of security protection against unauthorized changing of setpoints and other control
parameters.
• Warning and fault diagnostics to inform operators of warning and fault conditions in plain
language. Al1 warnings, problems and faults are time and date stamped so there is no guessing
of when the fault condition occurred. In addition, the operating conditions that existed just prior
to shutdown can be recalled to aid in isolating the cause of the problem.
• Twenty-five latest faults are displayed on the unit controller, eight can be displayed on the touch
screen. Data can be exported for archival purposes via a 3.5-inch floppy drive.
• Soft loading feature reduces electrical consumption and peak demand charges during loop
pulldown.
• Adjustable load pull-down rate reduces under-shoot during loop pulldown.
• Remote input signals for chilled water reset, demand limiting, unit enable.
• Manual control mode allows the service technician to command the unit to different operating
states. Useful for system checkout.
• BAS communication capability via LONMARK®, Modbus® or BACnet® standard protocols for
BAS manufacturers.
• Service Test mode for troubleshooting controller hardware.
• Pressure transducers for direct reading of system pressures. Preemptive control of high motor
amps, low evaporator pressure conditions and high discharge temperature takes corrective action
prior to a fault trip.

General Description
General Description
The centrifugal MicroTech ΙΙ control system consists of microprocessor-based controllers that
provide all monitoring and control functions required for the controlled, efficient operation of the
chiller. The system consists of the following components:
• Operator Interface Touch Screen (OITS), one per unit-provides unit information and is the
primary setpoint input instrument. It has no control function.
• Unit Controller, one per chiller-controls unit functions and communicates with all other
controllers. It is the secondary location for setpoint input if the Interface Screen is inoperative.
It is located in a panel adjacent to the OITS.
• Compressor Controller for each compressor on a chiller-controls compressor functions and can
operate a compressor without the unit controller or Operator Interface Panel. The controller is
located in a panel adjacent to the compressor.
The operator can monitor all operating conditions by using the unit-mounted OITS. In addition to
providing all normal operating controls, the MicroTech II control system monitors equipment
protection devices on the unit and will take corrective action if the chiller is operating outside of
it’s normal design conditions. If a fault condition develops, the controller will shut the compressor
or entire unit down and activate an alarm output. Important operating conditions at the time an
alarm condition occurs are retained in the controller’s history log to aid in troubleshooting and fault
analysis.
The system is protected by a password scheme that only allows access by authorized personnel.
The operator must enter the password into the touch screen (or one of the controller's keypad)
before any setpoints can be altered.
NOTE: It is important to understand that the OITS is the operator interface device under normal
conditions. If, and only if, it is unavailable, the unit controller can be used to operate the chiller.
Furthermore, if the unit controller is unavailable, the compressor controller(s) will still operate the
compressors and try to maintain chilled water temperature. Certain data and operability will not be
available under either of these operating modes. If the Microtech II controller controls the tower
and system pumps, they will have to run manually during this emergency situation.

Component Description
Operator Interface Touch Screen
The operator interface touch screen (OITS) is the primary
device by which commands and entries into the control system
are made. It also displays all controller data and information
on a series of graphic screens. A single OITS is used on both
single and dual compressor units.
The control panel contains a USB port that can be used for
loading information to and from the controll system.
The OITS panel is mounted on a moveable arm to allow
placement in a convenient position for the operator.
There is a screen-saver programed into the system. The screen
is reactivated by touching it anywhere.
Unit/Compressor Controller Description
Hardware Structure
The controller is fitted with a 16-bit microprocessor for running the control program. There are
terminals for connection to the controlled devices (for example: solenoid valves, tower fans,
pumps). The program and settings are saved permanently in FLASH memory, preventing data loss
in the event of power failure without requiring a back-up battery.
The controller connects to other controllers and the OITS via a local communications network (p-
LAN). It also has remote communication access capability for BAS interface.
Keypad
A 4 line by 20 character/line liquid crystal display and 6-button keypad is mounted on the unit and
compressor controllers. Its layout is shown below.

ARROW Keys ENTER Key
The four arrow keys (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) have three modes of use.
• Scroll between data screens in the direction indicated by the arrows (default mode).
• Select a specific data screen in the menu matrix using dynamic labels on the right side of the
display such as ALARM, VIEW, etc (this mode is entered by pressing the MENU key). For
ease of use, a pathway connects the appropriate button to its respective label on the screen.
• Change field values in setpoint programming mode according to the following table:
LEFT key = Default RIGHT key = Cancel
UP key = Increase (+) DOWN key = Decrease (-)
These four programming functions are indicated by one-character abbreviation on the right side
of the display. This programming mode is entered by pressing the ENTER key.

Software
The same model controller is used as either a unit controller or a compressor controller. The
controller operation is determined by the setting of the DIP switches located on the upper-left front
of the control, which establish the controllers pLAN address. For unit controller operation (one
chiller in system), number 1 and 3 switches are up (ON) and the balance are down (OFF).
Compressor controller operation is number 1 up and the balance down. On dual units, the second
compressor has number 2 up and the balance down. These settings are all made in the factory
during unit testing. Settings are different with multiple chillers and will be set by the startup
technician.
The operating software is revised occasionally. The version residing in a given control is identified
on the screen at boot-up or can be viewed at any time by pressing the Right and Up Arrows
simultaneously. It is also displayed on the OITS SERVICE screen.
Unit Controller
There is one unit controller mounted on the chiller that serves both compressor units.
Unit and compressor on/off switches are mounted in the unit controller panel located adjacent to
the OITS panel. They are designated 1 for on and O for off. The compressor on/off switch should
only be used when an immediate stop is required since the normal shut down sequence is bypassed.
The switch panel also has a circuit breaker that interrupts power to the cooling tower fans, valves
and evaporator and condenser pumps, if any of these are tied into the MicroTech II for control of
their operation. If these components operate independently from the chiller control, the breaker has
no effect.
There is an emergency shutdown switch located on the left outside of the panel that causes an
immediate shutdown of both compressors.
The unit controller's primary function is processing data relating to the entire chiller unit operation,
as compared to data relating to the compressor operation. The unit controller processes
information and sends data to other controllers and devices and relays information to the OITS for
graphic display. It has a 4x20 LCD display and keys for accessing data and changing setpoints.
The LCD can display most of the same information as the OITS and can operate the chiller
independently if the OITS is not available. Inputs and outputs are shown in the following tables.

Compressor Controller
The compressor controller's primary function is controlling and protecting the compressor. No
setpoint inputs are made with it. There is one compressor controller for each compressor on a dual
chiller unit. The compressor controller receives, processes, and sends data to other controllers and
devices and to the compressor starter or variable frequency drive (VFD). With some operator
intervention the compressor controller can operate the compressor(s) if the unit controller and/or
the operator interface touch screen are unavailable. Inputs and outputs are as follows:

Guardister™ Board
The Guardister board monitors the motor winding temperature through embedded Guardistor
temperature sensors in the motor. If the motor temperature rises to an unsafe level, the board will
signal the compressor controller and the compressor will shut down.
Signal Converter Board

On medium voltage starters, the AC current signal generated by the starter is converted by the
separate signal board into a 0-5 VDC signal that is directly proportional to the compressor motor
amp draw. The amp draw signal is sent to the compressor controller.
On low voltage starters, the D3 starter feature eliminates the need for this board.
Transducer Converter Board

The transducer converter board converts the pressure transducer signal to the correct voltage signal
and relates it to the compressor controller.
PLAN Isolator
Provides voltage isolation on the pLAN (RS485) when interconnecting chillers on the pLAN.

Field Wiring Diagram
NOTES for Following Wiring Diagram
1. Compressor motor starters are either factory mounted and wired, or shipped separate for
field mounting and wiring. If provided by others, starters must comply with Daikin
specification 359AB99. All line and load side power conductors must be copper.
2. If starters are freestanding, then field wiring between the starter and the control panel is
required. Minimum wire size for 115 Vac is 12 GA for a maximum length of 50 feet. If
greater than 50 feet, refer to Daikin for recommended wire size minimum. Wire size for 24
Vac is 18 GA. All wiring to be installed as NEC Class 1 wiring system. All 24 Vac wiring
must be run in separate conduit from 115 Vac wiring. Main power wiring between starter and
motor terminal is factory-installed when units are supplied with unit-mounted starters. Wiring
of free-standing starter must be wired in accordance with NEC and connection to
compressor motor terminals must be made with copper wire and copper lugs only.
3. For optional sensor wiring, see unit control diagram. It is recommended that dc wires be run

Dual/Multi-Chiller Operation
Multiple Chiller Setup

Single compressor chillers DWSC and dual compressor chillers DWDC and DWCC have their
main control components factory wired to an internal pLAN network so that they can
communicate with each other, within the chiller itself.
On multi-chiller applications, up to four chillers, either single, or dual compressor, can be
interconnected by this internal pLAN. All that is required is simple field RS485 interconnecting
wiring, the addition of accessory communication isolation board(s) 485OPDR (Daikin P/N
330276202), and some MicroTech II control settings (see special DWCC instructions at the end of
this section). The 485OPDR isolation board can be purchased with the unit or separately, during
or after chiller installation. The number of chillers minus one boards are required.
pLAN Setup
Interconnecting MicroTech II pLAN RS485 wiring should be installed by the installing contractor
prior to start-up. The Daikin start-up technician will check the connections and make the necessary
set point settings.
1. With no pLAN connections between chillers, disconnect chiller control power and set the DIP
switches as shown in Table 9.
2. With all manual switches off, turn on control power to each chiller and set each OITS address
(see Note 2 on page 13).
3. Verify correct nodes on each OITS Service Screen.
4. Connect chillers together (pLAN, RS485 wiring) as shown in Figure 3. The first chiller in the
connection can be designated as Chiller A. The isolation board is attached to the DIN rail
adjacent to the Chiller A unit controller. The isolation board has a pigtail that is plugged into
J10 on the controller. Most chillers will already have a universal communication module
(UCM) that connects the controller to the toucDHSCreen already plugged onto J10. If this is
the case, plug the isolation module pigtail into the empty RJ11 pLAN port on the UCM. This
is equivalent to plugging into the unit controller directly.
Next, interconnecting wiring is needed between Chiller A and Chiller B.
Two Chillers: If only two chillers are to be connected, Belden M9841 (RS 485 Spec Cable) is
wired from the 485OPDR isolation board (terminals A, B, and C) on Chiller A to the J11 port
on the unit controller of Chiller B. At J11, the shield connects to GND, the blue/white wire to
the (+) connection, and the white/blue to the (-) connection.
Note that Chiller B does not have an isolation board. The last chiller (B in this case) to be
connected does not need an isolation board.
Three or Four Chillers: If three or more chillers are to be connected, the interconnecting
wiring is still made to Chiller B’s J11 port. The second chiller (Chiller B) must have a
485OPDR isolator board that will be plugged into Chiller B’s UCM pLAN port. Chiller B will
look like Chiller A.
The wiring from Chiller B to Chiller C will be the same as A to B. That is, Belden cable
connects from A, B, and C on B’s 485OPDR board to chiller C’s L11 port. Chiller C has no
485OPDR isolation board.
The procedure is repeated to the fourth chiller if four chillers are interconnected.
5. Verify correct nodes on each OITS Service Screen.

password active, select the ‘pLAN Comm’ button. Buttons A(7), B(15), C(23), D(31) will
appear in the middle of the screen, then select the letter for the OITS address for the chiller that
it is on. Then close the screen. Note that A is the default setting from the factory.
3. Six Binary Switches: Up is ‘On’, indicated by ‘1’. Down is ‘Off’, indicated by ‘0’.

Operation
MicroTech II Operator Interface Touch Screen (OITS) Settings
Settings for any type of linked multiple compressor operation must be made to the MicroTech II
controller. Settings on a dual compressor unit are made in the factory prior to shipment, but must
be verified in the field before startup. Settings for multiple chiller installations are set in the field
on the Operator Interface Touch Screen as follows:
Maximum Compressors ON – SETPOINTS - MODES screen, Selection #10 ‘= 2 for a dual, 4 for 2
duals, 3 for three separate, single compressor chillers, etc. If all compressors in the system are to
be available as normal running compressors, then the value entered in #10 should equal the total
number of compressors. If any compressors are for standby and not operated in normal rotation,
they should not be included in the compressor count in Selection #10. The Max Comp ON setting
can be made in only one toucDHSCreen, the system will observe the highest number set on all
chillers-it is a global setting.
Sequence and Staging – SETPOINTS - MODES screen, Selection #12 & #14; #11 & #13.
Sequence sets the sequence in which compressors will start. Setting one or more compressors to
“1” evokes the automatic lead/lag feature and is the normal setting. The compressor with least
starts will start first and the compressor with maximum hours will stop first, and so on. Units with
higher numbers will stage on in sequence.
The Modes setpoints will do several different types of operation (Normal, Efficiency, Standby, etc.)
as described in the operating manual.
The same Modes setting must be replicated on each chiller in the system.
Nominal Capacity – SETPOINTS - MOTOR screen, Selection #14. The setting is the compressor
design tons. Compressors on dual units are always of equal capacity.
Operating Sequence
For multiple-chiller, parallel operation, the MicroTech II controllers are tied together by a pLAN
network and stage and control compressor loading among the chillers. Each compressor, single or
dual compressor chiller, will stage on or off depending on the sequence number programmed into
it. For example, if all are set to “1”, the automatic lead/lag will be in effect.
When chiller #1 is fully loaded, the leaving chilled water temperature will rise slightly. When the
Delta-T above setpoint reaches the Staging Delta-T, the next chiller scheduled to start will receive a
start signal and start its pumps if they are set up to be controlled by the Microtech controller. This
procedure is repeated until all chillers are running. The compressors will load-balance themselves.
If any of the chillers in the group are dual compressor, they will stage and load according to the
staging instructions.
DWCC Settings
Since the DWCC is essentially two chillers combined into one counterflow, single pass, dual-
circuit chiller, the compressor on the downstream circuit (leaving chilled water) must always be
designated as the Stage 1 compressor-first on, last off.

Operator Interface Touch Screen
Navigation
The home screen shown in VIEW screen on page 17 is usually left on (there is a screen-saver built
in that is reactivated by touching the screen anywhere). This VIEW screen contains the STOP and
AUTO buttons used to start and stop the unit when in Local control. Other groups of screens can
be accessed from the Home screen by pressing one of three buttons on the bottom of the screen;
HISTORY, VIEW, SET.
• HISTORY will go to the last history screens viewed and can toggle between the two history
screens.
• Trend History
• Alarm History
• VIEW will go to the next View screen and other sub-View screens used to look in detail at
settings and the operation of the chiller. Pressing View from any other screen will return to the
Home View screen.
• SET will go to a series of screens used to set setpoints.
The figure on the following page illustrates the arrangement of the various screens available on the
OITS. A few minutes practice on an actual OITS should provide a comfortable level of confidence
in navigating through the screens.

3. When the compressor is in the START state (oil pump started but still waiting for oil pressure), “PRELUBE –
Vanes Open” or “PRELUBE – Timer=(xxx)” is shown as appropriate.

Action Buttons for:
• AUTO and STOP buttons, normal start (AUTO) and STOP button activates the normal start
and shutdown sequence. These buttons are only active when the control is in the "Local
Control" mode. This eliminates the possibility of inadvertently shutting off the unit locally
when it is under control of a remote signal such as a BAS.
• HISTORY, toggles between the Trend History screen and the Alarm History screen.
• SET, toggles between the Set Points screen that are used for changing setpoints and the Service
screen.
Returning
Pressing the VIEW button from any screen will return to the HOME VIEW screen.

Pressing the VIEW button on the bottom of the Home View screen (Figure 5) accesses the Detail View
Screen shown above. This screen gives additional information on the refrigerant pressures and
temperatures and lubricant data.
Pressing the STATE button will bring up a display of the compressor state as described in Figure 9 on
page 21.
Pressing the I/O button displays the status of the compressor inputs and outputs as described on page 21.
Dual compressor units will have a COMP button that will toggle between the two compressors' data,
allowing the STATE and I/O detail screens to be viewed for either compressor.
Pressing the UNIT I/O button displays the unit inputs and outputs as described in Figure 11 on page 1.

Figure 7, Expanded Power View Screen
Pressing the EVAP or COND button will give detailed information on the
evaporator or condenser pressures and temperatures.
Pressing the MENU button on the bottom of the screen will go to a menu
(see Figure 8) from which the above listed screens can also be accessed.
Pressing the POWER button will access a screen showing power data for
the unit. The ability to view the unit’s electrical performance and to set
starter setpoints on the interface screen is an optional extra available at
the time of purchase. If the option is supplied on the unit, a “POWER”
button will be visible on the upper left side of the VIEW screen. Pressing
the button will open the screen shown in Figure 7.
The screen shown to the right will be superimposed on the right
side of the VIEW screen shown in Figure 6 when the optional
“Full Meter Display” is included with the unit. This screen will
remain visible until another display button; such as STATE, I/O,
etc is pressed.
If this option is not included, Percent Unit RLA on the HOME
VIEW screen displays the current percent of the unit rated loads
amps.
Figure 8, View Menu

This View Menu is accessed by
pressing the MENU button from
the Detail View Screen. The
menu screen is used to access
other screens containing various
data. A screen with unit
temperatures and pressures is
shown on a BAR CHART
SCREEN (see Figure 12 on page
22). This screen is accessed by
pressing LABELED BAR
GRAPHS. Pressing BAR
GRAPHS will access the same
screen, but without the labels
There is more data available to
view and it is accessed through
the buttons on the right of the
screen. It is segregated by
general topics that are self-
explanatory. These buttons are
also repeated on the Detail View Screen as previously noted. If the starter display option has been included, a
POWER button will be located above the STATE button.

Figure 9, View Compressor State Screen
For example, pressing the Compressor-State button will yield the
following screen superimposed on the right side of the Detail View
Screen. The Compressor State screen is basically a compilation of
the events that the chiller sequences through at startup. A green
light (light gray in the figure) indicates that a particular sequence
requirement has been satisfied. It is recommended that this screen
be viewed during the start up sequence. One can see the
requirements light up as they are met and quickly see why a non-
start may have occurred. For example, The Evap Flow OK will
light when the evaporator flow switch is closed by flow, Oil Sump
Temp OK will light if (or when) the oil temperature is above the
Startup Temperature Setpoint, both timers must be timed out, Oil
Pressure OK will light when sufficient oil pressure is achieved,
etc.
The bottom three sections (from "RUN" down) are in effect during
the shut down process. The compressor is officially off when the
Postlube Timer is Done. The sequence transitions back to OFF at
this point and the OFF light will be illuminated.
Figure 10, View Compressor Input/Output Status

Pressing the Compressor I/O button on the
VIEW MENU screen will access the screen
shown to the right. It is superimposed on the
right side of the Detail View Screen. It gives
the status of the compressor digital inputs and
analog and digital outputs. Many of these I/Os
also appear in the Compressor State screen
since they are part of the start up sequence and
define the compressor state at any given time.
Dual compressor units will have two of any
compressor screen.
A COMP button will appear in the lower left-
hand corner of the Detail View Screen (Figure
6 on page 19) on dual compressor DWDC
units. This button will toggle compressor data
from #1 compressor to #2 compressor.

Figure 12, Bar Chart with Labels
The bar chart screen is accessed from the MENU screen (Figure 8) by selecting LABELED BAR
GRAPHS. Selecting BAR CHARTS will access the same graph, but without the labels.
SET Screens
The set screens on the Interface Panel are used to input the many setpoints associated with equipment
of this type. MicroTech II provides an extremely simple method for accomplishing this. (NOTE: If
the Interface Panel is unavailable, the unit controller can be used to change setpoints.) Appropriate
setpoints are factory set and checked by DaikinService or Factory Authorized Service Company
during commissioning. However, adjustments and changes are often required to meet job conditions.
Certain settings involving pumps and tower operation are field set.
Pressing the SET button found on almost every screen accesses the last SET screen used or the
SERVICE screen, whichever of the two was used last.
When in any SET screen, pressing the SET button again will toggle to the SERVICE screen shown on
page 36.

The above figure shows the SETPOINT screen with WATER setpoints selected. The various setpoint
groups are in a column on the right side of the screen. Each button contains a number of setpoints
grouped together by similar content. The WATER button (as shown) contains various setpoints
relating to water temperatures. If either starter display option has been included, an additional button,
STARTER, will be located above the TIMERS button.
NOTE: Some setpoints that do not apply to a particular application may still be listed on the screen.
They will be inactive and can be ignored. For example, of setpoints 1, 2, and 3 above, only one will
be active depending on the unit mode selected in the MODE setpoints, 10 and 11 only for Templifiers.
The numbered buttons in the second from right column are pressed to select a particular setpoint. The
selected setpoint will appear in blue on the screen and a description of it (with the range of available
settings) will appear in the upper left-hand box.
Procedure for Changing a Setpoint
A list of setpoints, their default value, their available setting range, and password authority are in
Table 23 on page 51 for the unit and Table 24 on page 63 for the compressor.
1. Press the applicable Setpoint Group Button. A complete explanation of setpoint content of
each group follows this section.
2. Select the desired setpoint by pressing the numbered button.
3. Press the CHANGE button indicating that you wish to change a setpoint value. The
KEYBOARD screen will be turned on automatically for entering the password.
• O = Operator level password is 100
• M = Manager level password is 2001
• T = Technician level password is reserved for authorized technicians

4. Press the appropriate numbers in the numeric keyboard to enter the password. There is a small
delay between pressing the keypad and recording the entry. Be sure that an asterisk appears in
the window before pressing the next number. Press ENTER to return to the SETPOINT
screen. The password will remain open for 15 minute after initiation and does not need to be
re-entered during this period.
5. Press CHANGE again. The right side of the screen will turn blue (inactive).
6. The numeric keypad and action buttons in the lower left-hand corner of the screen will be
activated (the background will turn green). Setpoints with numeric values can be changed in
two ways:
• Select the desired value by pressing the numbered buttons. Press ENTER to enter the
value or CANCEL to cancel the transaction.
• Press the UP or DOWN button to increase or decrease the value displayed. Press ENTER
to enter the value or CANCEL to cancel the transaction.
Some setpoints are text rather than numeric values. For example, LWT Reset Type can be
"None" or "4-20 ma". The selection can be made by toggling between choices using the
UP or Down button. If dashed lines appear in the setpoint window, it indicates that you
have toggled too far and need to reverse direction. Press ENTER to enter the choice or
CANCEL to cancel the transaction.
Once CHANGE is selected, the CANCEL or ENTER buttons must be pressed before
another setpoint can be selected.
7. Additional setpoints can be changed by selecting another setpoint on the screen or by selecting
an entirely new group of setpoints.
Explanation of Setpoints
Each of the seven setpoint group of screens are detailed in the following section. In many cases the
setpoint content is obvious and no explanation is included.
1. TIMERS, for setting timers such as start-to-start, prelube, postlube, etc.
2. ALARMS, for setting the limit and shutdown alarms.
3. VALVE, sets the parameters for operation of an optional field installed tower bypass valve.
4. TOWER, selects the method of controlling the cooling tower and sets the parameters for fan
staging/VFD.
5. MOTOR, selects motor related setpoints such as amp limits, VFD settings, etc. Also has
maximum and minimum rate of change of chilled water temperature.
6. MODES, selects various modes of operation such as control source, multiple compressor
staging, pump staging, BAS protocol, etc.
7. WATER, leaving water temperature setpoint, start and stop delta-T, resets, etc.

Explaination of Tower Control Settings
MicroTech II control can control cooling tower fan stages, a tower bypass valve, and/or a tower fan
VFD if the chiller has a dedicated cooling tower.
The Tower Bypass Valve position will always control the Tower Fan Staging if Valve Setpoint,
Stage Setpoint is selected. Fan staging is determined by Min & Max Tower Valve Position.
There are five possible tower control strategies as noted below and explained in detail later in this
section. They are selected from SETPOINT TOWER SP2.
1. NONE, Tower fan staging only. In this mode the tower fan staging (up to 4 stages) is
controlled by either the condenser Entering Water Temperature (EWT) or LIFT pressure
(difference between the condenser and evaporator pressures). Tower bypass or fan speed are
not controlled.
2. VALVE SP, Tower staging with low-limit controlled bypass valve. In this mode the tower fans
are controlled as in #1 plus a tower bypass valve is controlled to provide a minimum condenser
EWT. There is no interconnection between the fan control and the valve control.
3. VALVE STAGE, Tower staging with stage controlled bypass valve. In this mode the bypass
valve controls between fan stages to smooth the control and reduce fan cycling
4. VFD STAGE. In this mode a VFD controls the first fan. Up to 3 more fans are staged on and
off and there is no bypass valve.
5. VALVE/VFD, Tower fan control with VFD plus bypass valve control.
Tower Fan Staging Only (NONE)

The following settings are used for the Tower Fan Staging Only mode, (SP= setpoint)
1) TOWER SETPOINT Screen
i) SP1. Select TEMP if control is based on condenser EWT or LIFT if based on compressor
lift expressed in psi.
ii) SP2. Select NONE for no bypass valve or fan VFD control.
iii) SP3. Select one to four fan outputs depending on the number of fan stages to be used.
More than one fan can be used per stage through the use of relays.
iv) SP4. Select STAGE UP TIME from 1 to 60 minutes. The default value of 2 minutes is
probably a good starting point. The value may need to be adjusted later depending on
actual system operation.
v) SP5. Select STAGE DOWN TIME from 1 to 60 minutes. The default value of 5 minutes
is probably a good starting point. The value may need to be adjusted later depending on
2) If TEMP is selected in SP1, use
i) SP6. Select STAGE DIFFERENTIAL in degrees F, start with default of 3 degrees F.
ii) SP8-11. Set the STAGE ON temperatures consistent with the temperature range over
which the condenser EWT is desired to operate. The default values of 70°F, 75°F, 80°F
and 85°F are a good place to start in climates with moderate wet bulb temperatures. The
number of STAGE ON setpoints used must be the same as SP3.
3) If LIFT is selected in SP1, use
i) SP7. Select STAGE DIFFERENTIAL in PSI. Start with default of 6 PSI.
ii) SP12-15. Start with default setpoints. The number of STAGE ON setpoints used must be
the same as SP3.
See Figure 2, Field Wiring Diagram on page 11 for fan staging field wiring connection points.

Tower Fan Staging With Bypass Valve Controlling Minimum EWT (VALVE SP)
1) TOWER SETPOINT Screen
a) SP1. Select TEMP if control is based on condenser EWT or LIFT if based on compressor

ii) SP8-11. Set the STAGE ON temperatures consistent with the temperature range over
which the condenser EWT is desired to operate. The default values of 70°F, 75°F,
80°F and 85°F are a good place to start in climates with moderate wet bulb
temperatures. The number of STAGE ON setpoints used must be the same as SP3.

a) SP1, Select NC or NO depending if valve is closed to tower with no control power or open
to tower with no control power.
b) If TEMP was selected for fan control above, use
i) SP2, Set the VALVE TARGET (setpoint), usually 5 degrees below the minimum fan
stage setpoint established in TOWER SP11. This keeps full flow through the tower
until the last fan is staged off.
ii) SP4, Set VALVE DEADBAND, the default of 2 degrees F is a good place to start.
iii) SP8, Set MINIMUM VALVE POSITION when EWT is at or below SP9. Default is
0%.
iv) SP9, Set the EWT at which the valve position will be at (SP8). Default is 60°F.
v) SP8, Set MINIMUM VALVE POSITION when EWT is at or below SP9. Default is
0%.
vi) SP9, Set the EWT at which the valve position is set to allow the fans to stage up (SP8).
Default is 60°F.
vii) SP10, Set the initial valve position when EWT is at or above SP11. Default is 100%.
SP11, Set the EWT at which initial valve position is set to SP8. Default is 90°F.
viii) SP12, Set the minimum position to which the valve can go. Default is 10%.
ix) SP13, Set the maximum position to which the valve can go. Default is 100%.
x) SP14, Set the control gain for error. Default is 25.
xi) SP15, Set the control gain for slope. Default is 25.

NOTE: Setpoints 14 and 15 are site specific dealing with system fluid mass, component
size and other factors affecting the reaction of the system to control inputs. These
setpoints should be set by personnel experienced with setting up this type of control.
c) If LIFT was selected for fan control, use

i) SP3, Set the VALVE TARGET (setpoint), usually 30 psi below the minimum fan
stage setpoint established in TOWER SP12. This keeps full flow through the tower
until the last fan is staged off.
ii) SP5, Set VALVE DEADBAND, the default of 6 psi is a good place to start.
iii) SP8, Set MINIMUM VALVE POSITION when EWT is at or below SP9. Default is
0%.
iv) SP9, Set the EWT at which the valve position will be at (SP8). Default is 60°F.
v) SP12, Set the minimum position to which the valve can go. Default is 10%.
vi) SP13, Set the maximum position to which the valve can go. Default is 100%.
vii) SP14, Set the control gain for error. Default is 25.
viii) SP15, Set the control gain for slope. Default is 25.
NOTE: Setpoints 14 and 15 are site specific dealing with system fluid mass, component

Tower Staging with Bypass Valve Controlled by Fan Stage (VALVE STAGE)
This mode is similar to #2 above except that the bypass valve setpoint changes to be set at the
same point of whatever fan stage is active rather than just maintaining a single minimum
condenser EWT. In this mode the valve controls between fan stages and tries to maintain the
fan stage setting in effect. When it is max open or max closed (staging up or down) and the
temperature (or lift) moves to the next fan stage, the valve will go the opposite max setting.
This mode reduces fan cycling.
This mode is programmed the same as Mode #2 above except that in SETPOINT, TOWER,
SP2, VALVE STAGE is selected instead of VALVE SP.
Fan VFD, No Bypass Valve (VFD STAGE)
The fan VFD mode assumes the tower is driven by one large fan. Set up is as above except in
SETPOINT, TOWER, SP2, VALVE/VFD is selected.

SERVICE Screen
Figure 22, Service Screen
Pressing SET from any SET screen accesses the SERVICE screen. In other words, it is the second
"SET" screen. While containing information and activity buttons for the service technician, it also
has valuable information for the operator.
The upper left corner contains compressor information as shown above. The screen illustrated is
for a dual compressor unit, a single, of course, would show data for only one compressor. "Spare
Capacity" is used to set the compressor stopping increment for dual compressors.
The light matrix below it displays what nodes are active for chillers A, B, C, and D on the pLAN.
The software version numbers shown in the lower left corner are the controllers' software
identification. These numbers may be required by Daikin to answer questions about unit operation
or to assist in possible future upgrades of software. The OITS software number is shown in the
upper-right corner.
The Operating Manual button will access the operating and maintenance manual for the unit. The
unit will also have a Parts Manual button. Some early versions may not have a parts list loaded. A
Daikin service technician can upload it. Pressing these buttons will display the manual on the
screen where it can be manipulated as an Adobe Acrobat file®.
SELECT LANGUAGE allows toggling between the available languages. The language can be
set separately for display or history, which is used for alarm and trend files.
The PASSWORD button is used to access the Keyboard screen to enter a password.
The Alarms ON/OFF button is normally used only on demonstration software and will probably
not appear on the unit’s screen. If so, they should be ignored.
The LOAD UCM and pLAN Comm buttons are for use only by authorized service technicians.
Date/Time in the upper-right corner is pressed to set the correct date and time, if needed.

HISTORY Screens
Figure 23, History Trend Graph
The Trend History Overview allows the user to view the various parameters listed on the right side
of the screen. The temperature scale in °F (°C) is on the left. Pressure in psi (kPa) and % RLA are
represented by the right-hand scale. The screen can display history for 8 hour, 2 hour or 20-minute
periods by pressing 8, 2, or 1/3 respectively. Some software versions have a 24 hour instead of an
8 hour period.
Pressing NOW for any time period will start the display for the current time beginning on the right
of the screen with history flowing to the left.
The arrow buttons scroll the time period forward or backward. Obviously if NOW is selected, the
forward button > will not go into the future.

Figure 24, Alarm History/USB Download
The Alarm History lists the alarms with the most current on top with date stamp, action taken and the cause of
the alarm. The alarms are color-coded as shown on the top of the screen.
Download from the USB

This screen is also used to download the Trend History (Figure 23) selected by date or the Alarm History
shown above. To download, connect a USB portable storage device to the USB port located in the unit control
panel adjacent to theOITS, and:
• For Alarms, press the ALARMS button on the screen, then press the COPY to USB button.
• For Trend History, select the desired History File by date using the PREV or NEXT buttons, then press
the COPY to USB button.

ACTIVE ALARM Screen
Figure 25, Active Alarms
The Active Alarm screen is accessible when an active alarm exists on the unit by pressing the red
alarm signal on any screen. If no alarm is active, it can be accessed from the SERVICE screen by
pressing the blue square where the red alarm signal would be. This allows repeating the alarm
clear command if desired.
Alarms are arranged in order of occurrence, with the most recent on top. Once the abnormal
condition is corrected, pressing the "CLEAR" key will clear the alarm.
The current active alarms (there may be more than one) are displayed. Note that the alarms are
color-coded red for FAULT (equipment protection control) that causes a rapid compressor
shutdown, yellow for PROBLEM (limit alarm) that will inhibit loading, or load or unload the
compressor, and blue for WARNING which is information only and takes no action.
The date/time and cause of the alarm are displayed.
After eliminating the cause of the alarm, clear the alarm by pressing the CLEAR button. This will
clear the alarm from the register and allow the unit to restart after going through the start sequence.
The alarm notice will be deleted from the screen.
However, if the cause of the alarm is not remedied, the alarm is still active and the alarm message
will remain on screen. The unit will not begin its starting sequence.
Always remedy the cause of an alarm before attempted to clear it.

Alarms fall into three distinct categories: Faults, Problems, and Warnings as detailed in the following
section.
Fault Alarms
The following table identifies each fault alarm, its display, gives the condition that causes the alarm to
occur, and states the action taken because of the alarm. All fault alarms require a manual reset.

Problem Alarms
The following alarms do not cause compressor shutdown but limit operation of the chiller in some way as
described in the Action Taken column. A limit alarm will trigger the red alarm screen and the digital
output for the optional remote alarm.

Unit Controller
A general description of the unit controller with its inputs and outputs is on page 7. This section
will describe the operation of the unit controller, define the screen hierarchy and how to navigate
through it and also give a description of the screens.

< ALARM
< VIEW
< SET
Note that each ARROW key has a pathway to a line in the display. Pressing an ARROW key will
activate the associated line when in the MENU mode.
Getting Started
There are two basic procedures to learn in order to utilize the MicroTech II controller:
1. Navigating through the menu matrix to reach a desired menu screen and knowing where a
particular screen is located.
2. Knowing what is contained in a menu screen and how to read that information or how to
change a setpoint contained in the menu screen.
Navigating
The menus are arranged in a matrix of screens across a top horizontal row. Some of these top-level
screens have sub-screens located under them. The general content of each screen and its location
in the matrix begins in Figure 29 on page 44. A detailed description of each menu screen begins on
page 46.
There are two ways to navigate through the menu matrix to reach a desired menu screen.
1) One is to scroll through the matrix from one screen to another using the four ARROW keys.
2) Another way is to use shortcuts to work through the matrix hierarchy. From any menu screen,
a) Pressing the MENU key will take you to the top level of the hierarchy. The display will
show ALARM, VIEW, and SET. One of these groups of screens can then be selected by
pressing the key connected to it via the pathway.

b) Depending on the top-level selected, a second level of screens will appear. For example,
selecting ALARM will go the next level of menus under ALARM (ALARM LOG or
ACTIVE ALARM). Selecting VIEW will go the next level of menus (VIEW
COMPRESSOR STATUS, VIEW UNIT STATUS, VIEW EVAPORATOR, or VIEW
CONDENSER). Selecting SET will go to a series of menus for looking at and changing
setpoints.
c) After selecting this second level, the desired screen can be acquired using the arrow keys.
A typical final screen is shown below.
Pressing the MENU key from any menu screen will automatically return you to the MENU mode.

SET Screens
The PW (password) column indicates the password that must be active in order to change the set
point. Codes are as follows:
O = Operator, password is 100 M = Manager, password is 2001 T = Technician (reserved)
The operator password is entered as 100 (three digits) on the OITS graphic keyboard. When
entered on a microprocessor LCD screen, four digits are required, thus it is entered as 0100.
Editing Setpoints
In order to enter or change a setpoint, the appropriate screen must first be accessed. There are two
ways to get to the desired menu screen:
1. Scrolling, The scroll method allows the user to move about the matrix (from one menu to
another, one at a time) by using the four ARROW keys. The menu matrix begins in Figure 29
on page 44.
2. The MENU key can be used as a shortcut to specific groups of menus within the matrix.
Editing is accomplished by pressing the ENTER key until the desired field is selected. This field is
indicated by a blinking cursor under it. The arrow keys will then operate as defined below.
Right Arrow Key = CANCEL Reset the current field to the value it had when editing began.
Left Arrow Fey = DEFAULT Set value to original factory setting.
Up Key = INCREMENT Increase the value or select the next item in a list.
Down Key = DECREMENT Decrease the value or select the previous item in a list.

These four edit functions are indicated by one-character abbreviation on the right side of the
display (this mode is entered by pressing the ENTER key).
Most menus containing set point values have several different setpoints shown on one menu.
When in a setpoint menu, the ENTER key is used to proceed from the top line to the second line
and on downward. The cursor will blink at the entry point for making a change. The ARROW
keys (now in the edit mode) are used to change the set point as described above. When the change
has been made, press the ENTER key to enter it. Nothing is changed until the ENTER key is
pressed.
For example, to change the chilled water setpoint:
1. Press MENU key to go to the MENU mode.
2. Press SET (the UP Key) to go to the setpoint menus.
3. Press UNIT SPs (the Right key) to go to setpoints associated with unit operation.
4. Press the DOWN key to scroll down through the setpoint menus to the third menu screen
which contains Cool LWT=XX.X°F.
5. Press the ENTER key to move the cursor down from the top line to the second line in order to
make the change. If a password is not active, the control will automatically go to the Set
PASSWORD screen
6. Use the ARROW keys (now in the edit mode as shown above) to change the setting.
7. When the desired value is achieved, press ENTER to enter it and also move the cursor down.
At this point, the following actions can be taken:
1. Change another setpoint in this menu by scrolling to it with the ENTER key.
2. Using the ENTER key, scroll to the first line in the menu. From there the ARROW keys can be
used to scroll to different menus.
During edit mode, the display will show a two-character wide menu pane on the right as shown

Ex Valve Gain = 100
Offset(Slope) = 271
Prs Ctrl Dout = 10°F
Screen 15 controls the electronic expansion valve (EXV) and is set as close as possible to known
job operating conditions. Ex Valve Gain values less than the default of 100 pivot the curve slope
to the right (downward). Values greater than the default of 100 pivot the slope upward, resulting in
a greater valve opening for a given condenser delta-T, with the effect increasing as the delta-T
increases. Very little effect is seen at low delta-Ts (low loads). See Figure 30.
Offset (Slope) values above 271 move the curve upward parallel, increasing the valve opening the
same amount regardless of the condenser delta-T. Values less than 271 have the opposite effect.
Prs Ctrl Dout (pressure control dropout) setting (see
Figure 31) determines the leaving chilled water temperature at which the EXV transitions from
pressure control based on chilled water temperature to program control based on condenser delta-T
(trimmed by lift). This pressure control mode provides a controlled pulldown of the chilled water
temperature on system startup.

SET COMP#N SPs (2)

StageMode = NORMAL
StageSequence# =XX
Max Comprs ON = XX
StageMode settings can be NORMAL, HI EFF, PUMP, and STANDBY as determined by the Stage
Mode setpoint.
NORMAL has the auto-balance sequence that starts compressors with least starts and stops
compressors with most hours, in sequence, providing all compressors have the same sequence
number. If they have different sequence numbers, say 1, 2, 3, 4, they will always start in that
sequence. That is, sequence number will take precedence over auto-balance sequencing.
HI EFF is used with multiple chillers and runs one compressor per chiller when ever possible.

PUMP starts all compressors on the same chiller first, starting with the chiller with the compressor
with the least starts (or by sequence number if they are different).
STANDBY is used in multi-compressor systems and reserves a compressor to come on only if
there is a failure of another compressor in the system and the standby compressor capacity is
required to maintain chilled water temperature.
StageSequence is set for each compressor:
In NORMAL or STANDBY Mode, all compressors can have the same number or a number from 1
up to the total number of compressors. Sequence number has priority over other considerations. If
four compressors in a system are given the sequence numbers 1 through 4, they will always start in
that order. With the same number they will auto-sequence.
In HI EFF or PUMP, all compressors must have the same sequence number.
Max Comprs ON limits the number of compressors allowed to run in multi-compressor systems. It
provides a "floating standby" compressor. All compressor controllers must have the same setting
for this setpoint.

Staging Parameters
Full Load Determination
Each compressor determines if it is at its maximum capacity (or maximum allowed capacity) and,
if so, set its Full Load flag. The flag shall be set (full load) when one or more of the following
conditions are met.
• The compressor is at its physical limit of capacity which means:
For VFD Set Point = NO: The load output has been pulsed ON for a cumulative time equal to
or greater than the Full Load set point. Any unload pulse shall reset the cumulative time to
zero.
For VFD Set Point = YES: Load pulsing has exceeded the Full Load set point (as described
above) AND the VFD speed = 100%
OR
The Vanes Open digital input is On AND the VFD speed = 100%.
• The %RLA is above or equals the Maximum Amp limit set point.
• The %RLA is above or equals the Demand Limit analog input value
• The %RLA is above or equals the Network Limit value
• The evaporator pressure is below the Low Evap Pressure-Inhibit set point.
When none of the above conditions are met, the Full Load flag shall be cleared.
Absolute Capacity
Each compressor shall estimate its absolute capacity from the present value of %RLA and the
Absolute Capacity set point from the equation:
Absolute Capacity = (%RLA Factor) * (Absolute Capacity set point)
Where the %RLA Factor is interpolated from the following table.
%RLA 0 50 75 100 150
%RLA Factor 0 0.35 0.75 1.00 1.50
Multiple Compressor Staging

• This section defines which compressor is the next one to start or stop. The next section defines when
the start, or stop, is to occur.
Functions
• Can start/stop compressors according to an operator defined sequence.
• Can start compressors based on # of starts (run hours if starts are equal) and stop on run hours.

• The above two modes can be combined so that there are two or more groups where all
compressors in the first group are started (based on number of starts/hours) before any in the
second group, etc. Conversely, all compressors in a group are stopped (based on run hours)
before any in the preceding group, etc.
• An “efficiency priority” mode can be selected for two or more chillers where one compressor is
started on each chiller in the group before a second is started on any of them.
• A “pump priority” mode can be selected for one or more chillers where all compressors on a
given chiller are started before going to the next chiller in the group.
• One or more compressors can be defined as “standby” where it is never used unless one of the
normal compressors is unavailable.

history buffer (viewed on the Alarm History screen). The active alarm buffers hold a record of the
last occurrence of each alarm and whether or not it has been cleared. The alarm can be cleared by
pressing the Edit key. A separate buffer is available for each alarm (High Cond Pressure,
Evaporator Freeze Protect, etc.). The alarm history buffer holds a chronological account of the last
50 alarms of any type.
Security
Entering on the Unit Controller
Two four-digit passwords provide OPERATOR and MANAGER levels of access to changeable
parameters. Either password can be entered using the SET PASSWORD screen which can be
accessed either through the SET OTHER menu or by simply pressing the ENTER key while on one
of the SET screens. The password can then be entered by
1. Press the ENTER key.
2. Move to each number space to be changed with the right or left button.
3. Enter the correct value by scrolling with the UP and DOWN arrow keys. The password is right
justified on the controller screen. The operator password would look like 00100, the manager
password would be 02001.
4. Press ENTER again to enter the password
Once the correct password has been entered, the previously selected screen will reappear. Once a
password has been entered, it will remain valid for 15 minutes after the last key-press. Parameters
and screens that require the MANAGER password will not be displayed unless the MANAGER
password is active.
Entering on the OITS
When a password is required, the touch screen will automatically go to the screen keyboard.
Numbers are left justified and the operator password would be 100 (appearing as *** in the
window). See page 23 for further information.

Compressor Controller
A general description of the unit controller with its inputs and outputs is on page 8. This section
will briefly describe the operation of the controller, define the screen hierarchy and how to navigate
through it and also give a description of the screens.
Relevant compressor information and setpoint changes are available on the OITS and on the unit
controller. There is little need to consult the compressor controller(s).

< SET
Note that each ARROW key has a pathway to a line in the display. Pressing an ARROW key will
activate the associated line when in the MENU mode.
Getting Started
There are two basic procedures to learn in order to utilize the MicroTech II controller:
1. Navigating through the menu matrix to reach a desired menu screen and knowing where a
particular screen is located.
2. Knowing what is contained in a menu screen and how to read that information or how to
change a setpoint contained in the menu screen.
Navigating
The menus are arranged in a matrix of screens across a top horizontal row. Some of these top-level
screens have sub-screens located under them.
There are two ways to navigate through the menu matrix to reach a desired menu screen.
One is to scroll through the matrix from one screen to another using the four ARROW keys.
The other way is to use shortcuts to work through the matrix hierarchy. From any menu screen,
pressing the MENU key will take you to the top level of the hierarchy. The display will show
ALARM, VIEW, and SET as shown in Figure 32. One of these groups of screens can then be
selected by pressing the key connected to it via the pathway.

For example, selecting ALARM will go the next row of menus under ALARM (ALARM LOG or
ACTIVE ALARM). Selecting VIEW will go the next level of screens under VIEW (VIEW UNIT
STATUS or VIEW UNIT TEMP). Selecting SET will go to a series of screens for looking at and
changing setpoints.
MENU Key
The MENU key is used to switch between the shortcut method (known as the MENU mode and as
shown in Figure 32) and scrolling method (known as the SCROLL mode). The MENU mode is the
shortcut to specific groups of menus used for checking ALARMS, for VIEWING information, or
to SET setpoint values. The SCROLL mode allows the user to move about the matrix (from one
menu to another, one at a time) by using the four ARROW keys.

Menu Screens
Various menus are shown in the controller display. Each menu screen shows specific information;
in some cases menus are used only to view the status of the unit, in some cases they are used for
checking and clearing alarms, and in some case they are used to set setpoint values.
The menus are arranged in a matrix of screens across a top horizontal row. Most of these top-level
screens have sub-screens located under them.
The ARROW keys on the controller are used to navigate through the menus. The keys are also
used to change numerical setpoint values contained in certain menus.

StageMode settings can be NORMAL, HI EFF, PUMP, and STANDBY as determined by the Stage
Mode setpoint. NORMAL is the auto balance sequence starting compressors with least starts and
stopping with most hours, in sequence. HI EFF is used with multiple dual compressor chillers and
runs one compressor per chiller when ever possible. PUMP starts all compressors on the same
chiller first starting with the chiller with the compressor with the least starts. STANDBY is used in
multi-compressor systems and reserves a compressor to come on only if there is a failure of another
compressor in the system and the standby compressor capacity is required to maintain chilled water
temperature.
StageSequence is set for each compressor:
In NORMAL or STANDBY Mode, all compressors can have the same number or a number from 1
up to the total number of compressors. Sequence number has priority over other considerations. If
four compressors in a system are given the sequence numbers 1 through 4, they will always start in
that order. With the same number they will auto-sequence.
In HI EFF or PUMP, all compressors must have the same sequence number.
Max Comprs ON limits the number of compressors allowed to run in multi-compressor systems. It
provides a "floating standby" compressor. All compressor controllers must have the same setting
for this setpoint.

Staging Parameters
Full Load Determination
Each compressor determines if it is at its maximum capacity (or maximum allowed capacity) and,
if so, set its Full Load flag. The flag shall be set (full load) when one or more of the following
conditions are met.
• The compressor is at its physical limit of capacity which means:
For VFD Set Point = NO: The load output has been pulsed ON for a cumulative time equal to
or greater than the Full Load set point. Any unload pulse shall reset the cumulative time to
zero. The cumulative time must be limited (to a value above the maximum allowed setting of
the Full Load set point) so that no wrap occurs.
For VFD Set Point = YES: Load pulsing has exceeded the Full Load set point (as described
above) AND the VFD speed = 100%
OR

The Vanes Open digital input is On AND the VFD speed = 100%.
• The %RLA is above or equals the Maximum Amp limit set point.
• The %RLA is above or equals the Demand Limit analog input value
• The %RLA is above or equals the Network Limit value
• The evaporator pressure is below the Low Evap Pressure-Inhibit set point.
When none of the above conditions are met, the Full Load flag shall be cleared.
Absolute Capacity
Each compressor shall estimate its absolute capacity from the present value of %RLA and the
Absolute Capacity set point from the equation:
Absolute Capacity = (%RLA Factor) * (Absolute Capacity set point)
Where the %RLA Factor is interpolated from the following table.
%RLA 0 50 75 100 150
%RLA Factor 0 0.35 0.75 1.00 1.50
Multiple Compressor Staging

• This section defines which compressor is the next one to start or stop. The next section defines when
the start, or stop, is to occur.
Functions
• Can start/stop compressors according to an operator defined sequence.
• Can start compressors based on # of starts (run hours if starts are equal) and stop on run hours.
• The above two modes can be combined so that there are two or more groups where all
compressors in the first group are started (based on number of starts/hours) before any in the
second group, etc. Conversely, all compressors in a group are stopped (based on run hours)
before any in the preceding group, etc.
• An “efficiency priority” mode can be selected for two or more chillers where one compressor is
started on each chiller in the group before a second is started on any of them.
• A “pump priority” mode can be selected for one or more chillers where all compressors on a
given chiller are started before going to the next chiller in the group.
• One or more compressors can be defined as “standby” where it is never used unless one of the
normal compressors is unavailable.

Optional Starter Screens

remain visible until another display button; such as STATE, I/O, etc, is
selected.

Low Voltage Starters, 200 – 600 Volts
This section contains information on low voltage, Wye-Delta and solid-state starters as
manufactured by Benshaw Inc. for Daikin centrifugal Chillers. They are known collectively as
“D3” starters. These low voltage starters have similar hardware and software (designated D3) and
are grouped together in this manual. Model numbers are as follows:
D3WD11 to D3WD2K Wye-Delta, Free Standing
D3WT11 to D3WT65 Wye-Delta, Factory (Terminal) Mounted
RVSS14 to RVSS4K Solid State, Free Standing
RVST14 to RVST82 Solid State, Factory (Terminal) Mounted
General
These starters are completely automatic and require no operator intervention (other than clearing
and resetting faults) to perform their function of providing a controlled connection of the
compressor motor to the power supply.
The Wye-Delta and solid-state starters have many similar software characteristics and are discussed
together in this section. However, some parameters and data are different. Where this occurs,
separate tables and figures are provided.
Certain electrical operating data in the starter is transmitted to the chiller and can be viewed on the
operator touch screen if the “Full Metering Option” has been ordered. See page 67.

Miscellaneous Messages
Display Output for the Standard Keypad
The display will output different information depending on the operation of the starter.
Power Up
The software version will be displayed as a series of blinking digits once power has been applied to
the D3 control. If the parameters were being reset on power up, “dFLt” will be flashed on the
display for three seconds, then the software version will be displayed.
Stopped
When the starter is not in the run mode, the display will show the status condition of the starter,
such as “rdY” (ready), “L OL” (Overload Lockout), “noL” (No Line).
Alarm Condition
When an alarm condition exists, the display alternates between displaying the selected meter and
the alarm code. The alarm code is displayed as “A XX”, where XX is the alarm code.
• When a thermal overload alarm condition exists, “A OL” will be displayed.
• When a no line alarm condition exists, “noL” will be displayed.
When the starter is stopped, the selected meter is not displayed.
Lockout Condition
When a lockout condition exists, the display shows the lockout code. The lockout code is
displayed as “L XX: where XX is the lockout code. Following are the defined lockout conditions
and their codes:
• When a motor thermal overload lockout condition exists, “L OL” will be displayed.
• When a power stack thermal overload lockout condition exists, “L Ot” will be
displayed.
• When a low control power lockout condition exists, “L CP” will be displayed.
When there are multiple lockout codes, each will be displayed at 2 second intervals.
Faulted Condition
When a fault condition exists, the display shows the fault code Fxx. The exceptions to this are as
follows:
• When the fault is thermal overload trip, “F OL” will be displayed.
• When the fault is Instantaneous over current, IOC will be displayed.
Quick Meters
Although any meter may be viewed by changing the meter parameter, there are 3 “Quick Meters”
that are always available with a single key press. When the starter is in the normal display mode,
the display may be toggled between the information currently displayed and the following quick
meters.

if the overload content is 76 percent, it will be displayed as “o 76”.
Phase Order Meter
Toggle between the programmed meter display and the phase order by pressing the UP key. The
phase order will be displayed as “AbC” or “CbA”. The phase order must be AbC to operate.
Restoring Factory Parameter Settings

To restore ALL parameters to the factory default settings, press and hold the PARAM and ENTER
pushbutton switch on power up. The display will blink “dFLt”. Parameters unique to the motor
starter applications will need to be set again to appropriate values before motor operation
Faults and Alarms

Starter and/or power problems can result in a fault or an alarm that will usually shut down the
compressor and record a “Starter Fault’ in the toucDHSCreen’s active fault menu. The starter LED
can then be consulted to determine the specific problem based on the code shown in the following

See notes on following page.

1. If a fault occurs that has a Y in the “Controlled Stop” column, and P21 (Controlled Fault Stop) is set to
On, and P9 (Stop Mode) is set to dcL, then the starter will perform a voltage decel to stop. Otherwise it
will coast to stop.
2. If a fault occurs that has a Y in the “Auto Reset” column, and P22 (Auto Fault Reset Time) is set to
some value other than OFF, then the fault will automatically be cleared after the time specified by P22.
3. Manual reset is accomplished by pressing the reset button on the LED display. See Figure 38. A stack
over temperature fault (number 61) requires pressing the reset button located on the stack first.

Quick Start
Motor FLA
Parameter Description
The motor FLA parameter must be set to the full load amps of the motor connected to the starter for
the starter to function correctly.
NOTE: The starter uses the entered motor FLA for every current based calculation. If the motor
FLA is not entered correctly, the current ramp profile and many of the starter’s advanced protection
features will not function properly.
Parameter Values
The motor FLA parameter is adjustable from 1 to 1200 amps in 1-amp increments.
Parameter Default
The default value for the motor FLA is 1 amp.
Serv. Fact (Service Factor)

Description
The service factor parameter should be set to the service factor of the motor. The service factor is
used for the overload calculations. The service factor is factory set, will be checked by the start-up
technician and should not require further adjustment. If the service factor of the motor is not
known, then the service factor should be set to 1.00.
Values
The service factor can be set from 1.00 to 1.99, in 0.01 increments.
NOTE: The NEC (National Electrical Code) does not allow the service factor to be set above 1.40.
Check with other local electrical codes for their requirements.
Default
The default value for the service factor is 1.15.
Start Mode
Description
The Start Mode parameter allows for an optimal start of the motor based on the application. For a
description of the possible Start Mode parameters, refer to page 31 in the Operations chapter.
Values
The Start Mode Parameter can be set to Curr, TT, or Tach.
Default
The default value for the Start Mode is Curr.
Stop Mode
Description
The Stop Mode parameter allows for the most suitable stop of the motor based on the application.
For a description of the possible Stop Mode parameters, refer to page 31 in the Operations chapter
of the starter manual.
Values
The Stop Mode can be set to Coas, VDCL, or TT.
Default
The default value for the Stop Mode is Coas.
Int. Curr. (initial current)
Description
The initial current parameter is set as a percentage of the motor FLA parameter setting. The initial
current parameter sets the current that will initially reach the motor when a start is commanded.

If the motor does not rotate within a few seconds after a start command, the initial current should
be increased. If the motor takes off too quickly after a start command, the initial current should be
decreased.
The initial current must be set to a value that is lower than the maximum current parameter setting.
A typical setting for the initial current parameter is from 50% to 175%.
Values
The initial current is adjustable from 50% to 400% in 1% intervals.
Default
The default value for the initial current is 100%.
Max. Curr. (maximum current)
Description
The maximum current parameter is set as a percentage of the motor FLA parameter setting. The
maximum current parameter performs two functions. It sets the current for the end of the ramp
profile and sets the maximum current that is allowed to reach the motor while the motor is being
started.
If the ramp time expires before the motor has reached full speed, the starter will hold the current at
the maximum current level until the stall time expires, the motor reaches full speed, or the overload
trips.
Typically, the maximum current is set to 600% unless the power system or load dictates the setting
of a lower maximum current.
Values
The maximum current is adjustable from 100% to 600% in 1% intervals.
Default
The default value for the maximum current is 600%.
Ramp Time
Description
The ramp time sets the amount of time that it takes for the starter to linearly increase the current
from the initial current level to the maximum current level. A typical ramp time setting is from 15
to 30 seconds.
Settings
The ramp time is adjustable from 0 to 120 seconds in 1 second intervals.
Default
The default value for the ramp time is 15 seconds.
Overload
Description
If there is more than one motor connected, the motor FLA should be set to the sum of the
connected motor full load.
amps.Values
Class 1 to 40 in steps of 1.
Default
The default value for the overload parameter is 10.
Phase Order
Description
The line phasing parameter sets the phase sensitivity of the starter. This can be used to protect the
motor from a possible change in the incoming phase sequence. If the incoming phase sequence

does not match the set phase rotation, the starter will display phs err while stopped and will fault if
a start is attempted.
Values
The line phasing can be set to:
• INS - will run with either phase sequence
• ABC - will only run with ABC phase sequence
• CBA - will only run with CBA phase sequence
Default
The default value for the phase sensitivity parameter is INS.

Sequence of Operation
Unit Operation
The following sequence of events describes a typical DWDC start and second compressor staging
process. All the contingency features of the code are not necessarily included. The purpose of this
document is to provide the operator with some insight into how the centrifugal chiller distributed
control process works to start and stage compressors.
The code was laid out to control four chillers with four compressors on each chiller. The polling
routine described below searches for all possible compressors (16 total), the code works the same
rather in a standalone DWSC, or in a Dual (2 chiller) DWDC setup. The Max Comp On setpoint is
used to limit the number of compressors that can run at one time (not the number being polled).
Chiller Starting
1. When the Unit state is switched to Auto, the compressors on a dual, or multi-compressor setup,
poll each other (1 to 2 minutes) to determine which will be NEXT_ON. The outcome of the
NEXT_ON search is determined by the Staging Sequence selected by the operator. Only one
compressor at a time can be selected to be NEXT_ON, and only compressors without active
alarms. The NEXT_ON status is indicated by lighting the right arrow button on that
compressor's controller keypad. If the NEXT_ON compressor has Start-to-Start or Stop-to-
Start timers running, the chiller will wait for them to clear.
2. When the Unit controller receives the NEXT_ON flag from one of it’s compressors, it will start
it’s Evap Pump (Evap Start State) and wait for the Recirculation time, at a minimum, then it
will wait "till the end of time" for the flow switch to close. When flow is confirmed, the Evap
State will switch to Run.
3. Approximately one min after NEXT_ON is set in the compressor, the compressor will look at
the Evap LWT to determine if Start-Delta-T has been exceeded. If so the Stage-Up-Now flag is
set, and if Evap State equals Run, the compressor start sequence will begin [Comp Start (oil
pump) state].
4. When the required net oil pressure is achieved, the compressor will transition to PreLube state
and when the Vanes_Closed switch is made (compressor cleared to start) the Unit controller
will start the Condenser Pump.
If the Vanes_Closed switch is not made within the Prelube time plus 30 seconds, a Vanes-
Open-No-Start alarm is declared.
If condenser flow is not established within a time period after the vanes closed signal, a
Condenser Flow alarm is declared. The time period is equal to the Prelube time plus 30
seconds. Note: It is possible for the Prelube state to successfully run for twice the Prelube time
plus 60 seconds, and not create an alarm.
5. In order to transition from Prelube to Compressor run state the following flags must be set:
Unit_State_Auto, Evap_State_Run, Cond_State_Run, Vanes_Closed, and Prelube timer
expired. Given this the lead compressor will start.
Compressor Staging
1. If the Normal (default) Staging Sequence on a DWDC chiller is selected, and a compressor
(the lead) has just started, the lag compressor’s polling routine will declare it as the
NEXT_ON compressor.
2. Once the lead compressor has satisfied the Soft Loading requirement, and judged to be at Full
Load, the Lag compressor (on multiple compressor applications) will determine when to stage
up as follows.

3. The Lag compressor will initiate a start sequence when the following events occur: a) Full
Load flag received from lead compressor, b) Evap LWT slope is less than minimum pull
down rate, c) Evap LWT exceeds the Stage-Delta-T setpoint.
4. The initial step in the Lag start sequence is to send a flag to the lead compressor causing it to
continuously unload the vanes for the duration of two Postlube time periods. This reduces the
head pressure that the lag compressor will have to overcome when it starts. Note that after
the two Postlube periods, the lead compressor will load back up regardless of the lag
compressor’s run status.
5. The lag compressor will wait for a period of time equal to the Postlube minus the Prelube
time before starting it’s oil pump. This coordinates the two compressors so that as the lead
unloads to the vanes closed condition, the lag compressor is completing the Prelube state and
both compressor are released to load up together. One minute after the lag compressor starts,
Amp balancing takes affect to share the load.
Determining Full Load Status

Since the chiller's Full Load status doesn't correspond to %RLA, a direct comparison cannot be
made. That is to say that the chiller can be running flat out (vanes fully open) at 90 %RLA. The
%RLA number is greatly affected by the chiller's operating conditions (i.e. condenser water, evap
Delta-T).
The following describes the six parameters used to set the Full Load indication for a compressor.
1. Vane position – Vane position is not measured directly. On Chillers with a VFD, a switch is
used to detect "Vanes_Open". Chiller's without a VFD use a "Full Load" timer (Set Comp
SPs (4). This timer sums the time that the load vanes solenoid is pulsed. Any unload pulses
will reset the timer. When the continuous load pulse time exceeds the setpoint the
Vanes_Open flag is set.
2. VFD Speed - A flag is set if the VFD is equal or above 100% speed.
3. Max_Amps - A flag is set if %RLA is equal to, or above Max_Amps.
4. Demand Limit - A Flag is set if %RLA is equal to, or above a % demand limit (either 4-
20mA signal or network amp limit).
5. Max Capacity based on pressure - A Flag is set if Evap Saturated Pressure is equal to, or
below the Evap Inhibit loading setpoint "LowEvPrHold" found under SET ALARM LMTs
(1).
A low refrigerant charge can cause this flag to be set at lower than expected capacity, but it is
still an indication that the chiller has reached maximum capacity.
6. Soft loading - If the operator has enabled the SoftLoad feature, the first compressor (on the
pLAN network) to run will inhibit the following flags while the SET UNIT SPs (6)
"SoftLoadRamp" timer is running; Vanes_Open, Max_Amps, Demand Limit, and Max
Capacity.

The Compressor's Full Load Status indication is set up into two modes, with and without VFD.
1. With VFD - Full Load is indicated with Vanes_Open and VFD Speed (>100%).
2. Without VFD - Full Load is indicated when SoftLoad is not active, and any of the
following logic or flags are set; Vanes_Open, Max-Amps, Demand Limit, or Max Capacity
(pressure).
The unit's (chiller) Full Load indication sent out over the BAS interface (bit #0 of Integer 22) is set
if the number of compressors (on this chiller) running at Full Load is equal to, or greater than the
sum of compressors running and available to run (on this chiller). A compressor is considered
available if both Start and Stop timers are clear, inhibit switches and flags are set to enable, No
Alarms pending, and the compressor is on-line (pLAN); or the compressor is running and on-line.
Available compressors (bits 1-4 of Integer 22) are inhibited if Unit Mode Source is not set to
Network (BAS), however the Unit Full Load indication will be valid regardless of the Source type.
Operating the Chiller Control System

Interface Panel On/Off
The Operator Interface Panel is turned on and off with a push-push switch located at the upper-left
corner on the rear of the panel. ON is the outermost switch position and a white band will be
visible on the switch stem. Off is innermost and no white is visible.
The screen is equipped with a screen saver that blackens the screen. Touching it anywhere
reactivates the screen. If the screen is black, touch it first to be sure it is on before using the
ON/OFF switch.
Start/Stop Unit
There are four ways to start/stop the chiller. Three are selected in SETPOINT\MODE\SP3, the
fourth way is through panel-mounted switches:
Operator Interface Panel (LOCAL)
Home Screen 1 has AUTO and STOP buttons that are only active when the unit is in "LOCAL
CONTROL". This prevents the unit from being accidentally started or stopped when it is under
control from a remote switch or BAS. When these buttons are pressed, the unit will cycle through
its normal starting or stopping sequence. On dual compressor units, both compressors will be
stopped and normal dual compressor starting procedure will be in effect.
Remote SWITCH
Selecting SWITCH in SP3 will put the unit under the control of a remote switch that must be wired
into the control panel (see Figure 2 on page 11).
BAS
BAS input is field-wired into a card that is factory-installed on the unit controller.
Control Panel Switches

The unit control panel, located adjacent to the Interface Panel has switches inside the panel for
stopping the unit and compressors. When the UNIT switch is placed in the OFF position the chiller
will shut down through the normal shutdown sequence whether one or two compressors.
The COMPRESSOR switch(s) (two on dual compressor units) will immediately shut down the
compressor without going through the shutdown sequence when placed in the OFF position. It is
equivalent to an emergency stop switch.

Change Setpoints
Set points are easily changed on the Operator Interface Touch Screen (OITS). A complete
description of the procedure begins on page 23. Set points can also be changed in the unit
controller but this is not recommended except in an emergency when the OITS is unavailable.
Alarms
A red ALARM light in the lower middle of any screen is illuminated if there is an alarm. If the
optional remote alarm is wired in, it too will be energized.
There are three types of alarms:
• FAULT, equipment protection alarms that shut a unit or compressor off.
• Problem, limit alarms that limit compressor loading in response to an out-of-normal condition.
If the condition that caused a limit alarm is corrected, the alarm light will be cleared
automatically.
• Warning, notification only, no action taken by controller.
Any type will light the ALARM light. Procedures for dealing with alarms are shown below:
1. Press the alarm light button. This will go directly to the ACTIVE ALARMS screen.
2. The alarm description (with date stamp) will be shown.
3. Press the ACKNOWLEDGE button to recognize the alarm.
4. Correct the condition causing the alarm.
5. Press the CLEAR button to clear the alarm from the controller. If the fault condition is not
fixed, the alarm will continue to be on and the unit will not be able to be restarted.
Component Failure
Chiller Operation without the Operator Interface Panel
The Interface Panel communicates with the unit and compressor controllers, displaying data and
transmitting touch screen inputs to the controllers. It does no actual controlling and the chiller can
operate without it. Should the Touch Screen become inoperable, no commands are necessary for
continuing unit operation. The unit controller can be used to view operational data and to change
setpoints if necessary.
Chiller Operation without the Unit Controller

The Touch Screen receives most of its operational data from the unit controller and if the unit
controller is not operational considerable data will be absent from the screen. Tower control of
fans and/or bypass valve will be disabled and tower operation will be interrupted and require
manual intervention to continue operation.
