If any zones are still calling for heating at the end of a 5 minute period,
the setpoint algorithm will respond by raising the setpoint by 2F for
every zone requesting heating.
If no zones are still calling for heating at the end of a period, the setpoint
algorithm will respond by lowering the setpoint by 1 F.
The heating setpoint algorithm will not adjust the heating setpoint by

BMS shall determine the AHU supply air temperature setpoint based on the
number of heating requests and cooling requests the AHU is receiving.

If there are more cooling requests than heating requests coming into the
AHU, or if there are the same number of heating requests as cooling
requests, the AHU controller will use the cooling setpoint.
If there are more heating requests than cooling requests coming into the
AHU, the AHU controller will use the heating setpoint.
When the BMS switches from the heating setpoint to the cooling
setpoint, the setpoint control algorithm will ramp from the heating
setpoint to the cooling setpoint at a rate of 1F/minute.
When the BMS switches from the cooling setpoint to the heating
setpoint, the setpoint control algorithm will ramp from the cooling setpoint
to the heating setpoint at a rate of 1F/1.5 minute.

maintain discharge air temperature setpoint. Setpoint for each unit shall be
determined per Specification Sections 23 81 06.

Cooling Control

If the outside air temperature is greater than 60F with a 2F hysteresis and the

and Ventilating Units (ERV&HX units). Exhaust fans serving H&V units shall act
as relief air fans and shall be activated when there is a call for cooling and

close the economizer to protect the coil. The controller will continue to close the
damper linearly until the temperature drops to 40F, when the
economizer/ventilation damper will be 100% closed.

Once the controller has established communication with the system after any
interruption in communication, it will record a temperature history for the system.

At 12:05 am every night, the controller will reset the high and low daily
temperature peak recorders for the next day. The reset signal will last
no longer than 5 seconds.
When the high and low daily temperature peak recorders are reset for
the first day of each month, the high and low month-to-date peak
recorders will also be reset.
When the high and low month-to-date peak recorders are reset for
January, the high and low year-to-date peak recorders will also be reset.

3.25 ALARM NOTIFICATION

Events and alarms shall be indicated on the appropriate equipment graphics page
viewable and with automatic display updates available at the central server level. The
graphic display will indicate an alarm condition by showing the appropriate object in red
on the graphic display.

Alarms and events shall be displayed on the Event Log Page viewable and with
automatic display updates available at the central server level. Date and time of
occurrence shall be recorded.

services for remote notification to: printers on the customer's network, e-mail system,
local sounds, or other reporting actions, depending on user configuration.

3.26 TRENDING

All I/O points will be linked to a trend log and additional trends will be provided as shown
in the tables below.

The controller will be able to record a trend sample every 10 minutes on each of
the trend objects.

The controller will save the most recent 144 samples of each trended point in the
control module for viewing or printing.

The user will be able to enable or disable trending of any of the points listed.
