Table 12 — CCN Communication Bus Wiring
It is important when connecting to a CCN communication
bus that a color-coding scheme be used for the entire network
to simplify the installation. It is recommended that red be used
for the signal positive, black for the signal negative, and white
for the signal ground. Use a similar scheme for cables contain-
ing different colored wires.
At each system element, the shields of its communication
bus cables must be tied together. If the communication bus is
entirely within one building, the resulting continuous shield
must be connected to a ground at one point only. If the commu-
nication bus cable exits from one building and enters another,
the shields must be connected to grounds at the lightning
suppressor in each building where the cable enters or exits the
building (one point per building only). To connect the unit to
the network:
1. Turn off power to the control box.
2. Cut the CCN wire and strip the ends of the red (+), white
(ground), and black (–) conductors. (Substitute appropri-
ate colors for different colored cables.)
3. Connect the red wire to (+) terminal on TB3 of the plug,
the white wire to COM terminal, and the black wire to the
(–) terminal.
4. The RJ14 CCN connector on TB3 can also be used, but is
only intended for temporary connection (for example, a
laptop computer running Service Tool).
Configuration Options
MINIMUM LOAD CONTROL (Configuration
UNIT
HGBP) reduces the capacity of the 30RB chiller below the
lowest standard capacity step by use of hot gas bypass. This
capacity step reduction provides more precise control of the
leaving water temperature. The minimum load valve acces-
sory cannot be used on units configured for brine as the
cooler fluid type (Configuration→SERV→FLUD).
Minimum Load Control can be configured in three different
ways. If Minimum Load Control is not used, HGBP must be
set to 0. If HGBP is set to 1, the control will activate the mini-
mum load control valve when the machine is started only. This
will be the first step of capacity. If HGBP is set to 2, all stages
of capacity can utilize the minimum load control valve. If
HGBP is set to 3, the minimum load control valve will be used
only when the circuit has a high pressure override active. This
will reduce the capacity of the circuit.
RAMP LOADING (Configuration
OPTN
RL.S) limits
the rate of change of leaving fluid temperature. If the unit is in
a Cooling mode and configured for Ramp Loading, the control
makes 2 comparisons before deciding to change stages of
capacity. The control calculates a temperature difference
between the control point and leaving fluid temperature. If the
difference is greater than 4° F (2.2° C) and the rate of change
(°F or °C per minute) is more than the configured Cool Ramp
Loading (Setpoints
COOL
CRMP), the control does not
allow any changes to the current stage of capacity.
MINUTES OFF TIME (Configuration
OPTN
DELY) is
a time delay added to the start when the machine is com-
manded ON. This is a field configurable item from 1 to
15 minutes. The factory default is 1 minute. This feature is
useful when multiple units are installed. Staggering the start
will reduce the inrush potential.
Dual Chiller Control — The dual chiller routine is
available for the control of two parallel units supplying chilled
fluid on a common loop. This control is designed for a parallel
fluid flow arrangement only. One chiller must be configured as
the master chiller, the other as the slave chiller. An additional
leaving fluid temperature thermistor (Dual Chiller LWT) must
be installed in the common chilled water piping as described in
the Installation Instructions for both the master and slave
chillers. See the Field Wiring section in the 30RB Installation
Instructions for dual chiller LWT sensor control wiring. A
chilled water flow switch is factory-installed for each chiller.
Parallel chiller control with dedicated pumps is recom-
mended. Chiller must start and stop its own water pump locat-
ed on its own piping. If pumps are not dedicated for each
chiller, chiller isolation valves are required: each chiller must
open and close its own isolation valve through the control
(valve shall be connected to the pump outputs). Pump Control
is enabled as described in the Cooler Pump Control section on
page 31. One additional parameter is set for the dual chiller
control. Lag Unit Pump Select (Configuration
RSET
LAGP) allows the user to configure the control to energize
the pump for the lag chiller once the unit enters an occupied
time period or delay the control until the lag chiller is started. It
is recommended that this parameter be set to 0, OFF IF UNIT
STOPPED.
The control of the slave chiller is directed through com-
mands emitted by the master chiller. The slave chiller has no
action in master/slave operations it shall only verify that CCN
communication with its master is present. See the Dual Chiller
Sequence of Operation section on page 45.
Use dual chiller control to designate a lead chiller between
the master and slave chiller. Configure the Lead/Lag Balance
Select (Configuration
RSET
LLBL)to ENBL to base the
selection on the Lead/Lag Balance Delta (Configuration
RSET
LLBD) between the master and slave run hours. If
the run hour difference between the master and the slave
remains less than LLBD, the chiller designated as the lead will
remain the lead chiller. The Lead/Lag changeover between the
master and the slave chiller due to hour balance will occur dur-
ing chiller operating odd days, such as day 1, day 3, and day 5
of the month, at 12:00 a.m. If a lead chiller is not designated,
the master chiller will always be designated the lead chiller.
The dual chiller control algorithm has the ability to delay
the start of the lag chiller in two ways. The Lead Pulldown
Time (Configuration
RSET
LPUL) provides a field con-
figurable time delay of 0 to 60 minutes. This time delay gives
the lead chiller a chance to remove the heat that the chilled wa-
ter loop picked up while being inactive during an unoccupied
period. The Lead Pulldown Time parameter is a one-time time
delay initiated after starting the lead chiller, manually or by a
schedule, before checking whether to start an additional chiller.
This routine provides the lead chiller an opportunity to pull
down the loop temperature before starting another chiller. The
second time delay, Lead/Lag Delay (Configuration
RSET
LLDY) is a time delay imposed between the last
stage of the lead chiller and the start of the lag chiller. This pre-
vents enabling the lag chiller until the lead/lag delay timer has
expired. See Tables 13 and 14.

IMPORTANT: A shorted CCN bus cable will prevent
some routines from running and may prevent the unit
from starting. If abnormal conditions occur, discon-
nect the CCN bus. If conditions return to normal,
check the CCN connector and cable. Run new cable if
necessary. A short in one section of the bus can cause
problems with all system elements on the bus.
