State Programming
TheMicroTechIIUVCtakesadvantageofstatemachineprogramming
to define and control unit ventilator operation. State machines define
specific states, or modes of operation for each process within the unit
ventilator (i.e. heating, cooling, etc.) and contain the specific logic for
each state. This eliminates some of the most common problems
associatedwithcontrolsequencessuchasthepossibilityofsimultaneous
heating and cooling, rapid cycling, etc.
State machine programming, and the unique nature of state diagrams,
can be easily used to describe unit ventilator operation, and can vastly
simplify sequence verification during unit commissioning, as well as
simplifytroubleshooting.Withtheuniquecombinationofstatemachine
programming and the LUI’s ability to allow a technician to easily
determine the active UVC state, troubleshooting the UVC can be very
simple.
The state diagrams presented in the following sections consist of
several “elements” including Super States, States, Conditional Jumps
(alsocalled transitions)anda TransitionPoint.Super statesare usedas
a means to group two or more related states into a single control
functionsuch as cooling,or heating, etc.States are where all theactual
worktakesplace,withineachstatetheUVCenablesPI-loopsandother
logicsequencesrequiredtocontrolunitventilatoroperationwithinthat
particular state, while other functions and PI-loops not needed during
that state may be disabled. Conditional jumps, or transitions, are the
Notall states ormodes are availablefor allUV configurations,and
some states (such as Active Dehumidification) are optional.
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
Figure 6. Complete UVC - State Program
In the state descriptions below the terms saturated high and
saturated low indicate that the heating or cooling function being
described has reached 100% or 0% respectively.
logic paths used by the UVC to determine which state should be made
active, these are the “questions” the UVC will continually consider.
The transition point is simply a point through which a number of
conditional jumps meet, you can think of it as a point where a number
of questions must be considered from which the UVC then determines
which path is followed and which state is then made active.
The UVC states and super states are used to define the “normal” unit
modes, such as Off, Night Purge, Fan Only, Emergency Heat, Auto,
Cool, Heat, and Active Dehum. The UVC also supports several
“specialpurpose”unitmodessuchasPurge,Pressurize,De-pressurize,
and Shutdown, which can be forced via a network connection and
override typical UVC operation.

UVC Unit Modes
The UVC provides several “normal” modes of unit operation, these
include Off, Night Purge, Fan Only, Cool, Emergency Heat, Auto,
Heat and Cool.
Normal UVC modes can contain a single state or several states
dependent upon the functionality required for each particular mode.
EachUVC statehas beenassigned anumber. Thisstate numbercan be
very helpful when trying to understand which state is currently active
within the UVC. The current UVC state number can be viewed using
the LUI. See Figure 6 for Super State and State.
Transition (UVC Mode = Off)
into State
Operation When Off mode becomes active, the UVC stops all
within State normal heating, cooling, ventilation (OA damper is
closed), and fan operation. he UVC will continue to
monitor space conditions, indicate faults, and provide
network communications (if connected to a network)
as long as power is maintained to the unit. If the space
temperature drops below EHS, and the Emergency
Heat function is enabled, the UVC will be forced into
the Emergency Heat mode (see Emergency Heat Mode).
he space lighting output will continue to operate
normally based upon the current UVC occupancy
mode.
Special purpose unit modes (i.e. Purge, Pressurize,
and De-pressurize modes) accessed via a network
connection can force the UVC to perform “special”
functions during which the UVC will appear to be in
the Off mode. See Special Purpose Unit Modes, and
the UVC Unit Mode Priority sections for more
information.
he UVC will remain in this state until one of the
transition out conditions become true.

a power off state. The LUI or a network connection can force the unit
into the Off mode. Off mode consists of a single UVC state: Off [9].

NIGHT PURGE MODE (STATE NUMBER 8)
Night Purge mode is provided as a means to more easily and quickly
ventilate a space. Night purge can be useful in helping to remove odor

generating operations occur within the space. Night Purge is a full
ventilation with exhaust mode, during which room comfort will very
likely be compromised, it is therefore strongly recommended that
Night Purge only be used when the space is unoccupied. The LUI or a

EMERGENCY HEAT MODE (SUPER STATE)
The Emergency Heat mode is provided for situations where the UVC
is in a mode that does not normally allow heating, such as Off, Cool,
Night Purge, or Fan Only. If Emergency Heat mode is enabled, the
UVC can automatically force itself into the Emergency Heat mode
fromOff,Cool,NightPurge,FanOnly,Purge,Pressurize,De-pressurize,
and Shutdown. Additionally, the LUI or a network connection can be
usedto force theunit into theEmergency Heat mode.Emergency Heat

Operation When Emergency Heat mode becomes active, the
within State UVC will go into 100% heating until the space
temperature raises to the EHS plus a fixed differential
(9OF / 5OC). In the Emergency Heat mode the space fan
will be set to high speed, and the OA damper will
operate normally. If the UVC forces itself into the
Emergency Heat mode from another mode, then the
UVC will return to the appropriate unit mode once the
space temperature rises to the EHS plus the fixed
differential. he UVC will monitor the DA to ensure
it does not exceed DAHL. If the DA does exceed
DAHL (140OF / 60OC default), then heating will be set
to 0% for a minimum of 2-minutes (fixed) and until the
DA drops 18OF (10OC) fixed differential below

AUTO MODE
Auto mode is provided so that the UVC can be set to automatically
determine if heating, cooling or dehumidification is required. Auto
mode is the default start-up UVC mode. Auto mode is made up of the
Heat, Cool and Active Dehum (optional, software model 4) modes.
When the UVC is set to auto mode, the UVC will determine which
mode (Heat, Cool or Active Dehum) to use.
Cant Heat State (state number D)
The Cant Heat state is a “non-normal” state that the UVC can go into
when Emergency Heat mode is active. Only an IAT or DAT sensor
fault during Emergency Heat mode will cause the UVC to make this
state active.

Shutdown Mode
Shutdown mode is the equivalent of the Off mode, but is an Off mode
forced by a network connection. When in Shutdown mode the UVC
stops all normal heating, cooling, ventilation (OA damper is closed),
and fan operation. By default emergency heat will not be used during
theshutdownmode,however,theUVCcanbeconfigured(Emergency
Heat Shutdown Configuration) to allow emergency heat operation
during shutdown mode. The shutdown mode can be accessed via a
network connection and a binary input to the UVC.
Energy Hold Off Mode
The UVC supports an energy hold off state, which when active forces
the UVC to stop all normal heating, cooling and ventilation. Typically
used by a network connection to force the UVC to cease heating,
cooling and ventilation when conditions exist where heating, cooling
and ventilation are not required or desired. Energy hold off mode is
very similar to shutdown mode except that energy hold off always
allows emergency heat if required. The energy hold off mode can only
be accessed via a network connection.
UVC UNIT MODE PRIORITY
The UVC uses the network variables and binary inputs listed in the
following tables, to determine unit mode. Special purpose UVC unit
modes have higher priority than the normal UVC unit modes as shown
inthefollowing tables. Eachtableliststhe highestpriorityitemson the
left to the lower priority items to the right. The right most columns

Active Dehumidify State (optional with reheat type units)
The Active Dehum state is a “normal” state that the UVC can go into
when Cool mode is active and when the unit is equipped for optional
active dehumidification (see Active Dehumidification).
Transition (Space = High %RH AND Mech Cooling = Available
into State
AND %RH Sensor = Reliable)
Operation When the Active Dehum state becomes active, the
within State UVC will capture the current IA and use this as the
temporary setpoint during dehumidification. he unit’s
mechanical cooling capabilities will initially be set to
100% (compressor on) and the heat PI will maintain
the captured setpoint. If the heat PI saturates high
(100% heat) for 2-minutes or more (i.e. heating cannot
keep up with cooling), the compressor will be disabled
until the compressor’s minimum-off time expires and
the heat PI saturates low (0% heat). he UVC uses a
5%RH fixed differential below the RHS to determine
when active dehumidification is complete. he UVC
will monitor the DA to ensure it does not fall below
MCLL, nor goes above DAHL. he CO2 demand
controlled ventilation function will be active, if the
unit is equipped for CO2 control (see CO2 Demand
Controlled Ventilation), and the OAD will be adjusted
as needed to maintain the CO2 setpoint.

SPECIAL PURPOSE UNIT MODES
There are some additional UVC modes that are considered special
purpose unit modes, these include Pressurize, Depressurize, Purge,
Shutdown and Energy Hold Off. These modes force the UVC to
perform very specific and limited functions and must be used with
caution and only for short periods as needed. These modes can only be
accessed via a network connection.
In each of these special purpose UVC modes, if the space temperature
drops below EHS, and the Emergency Heat function is enabled, the
UVC will be forced into the Emergency Heat mode (see Emergency
Heat Mode) and then return once the Emergency Heat function is
satisfied.

UVC operation. During unoccupied mode the UVC will use the
unoccupiedheatingandcoolingsetpoints,theOADwillremainclosed,
and the IAF will cycle as needed for heating or cooling. The IAF will
remain off when there is no need for heating or cooling.
STANDBY MODE
The standby mode is a special purpose day time mode of UVC
operation. During standby mode the UVC will use the standby heating
and cooling setpoints, the OAD will remain closed, and by default the
IAF will remain on.
BYPASS MODE
The bypass mode (also called Tenant Override) is the equivalent of a
temporary occupied mode. Once the bypass mode is initiated it will
remain in effect for a set period of time (120-minutes default). During
the bypass mode the UVC will use the occupied heating and cooling
setpoints, the OAD will operate normally, and by default the IAF will
remain on.
NETWORKED OCCUPANCY SENSOR CAPABILITY
A networked occupancy sensor can be interfaced with the Occupancy
SensorInputvariabletoselectoccupancymodes.WhentheOccupancy
Sensor Input variable is used, it will automatically override any hard-
wired unoccupied binary input signal.
UNIT-MOUNTED TIME-CLOCK
An optional unit-mounted factory-installed electronic 24-hour/7-day
timeclockcanbeprovidedonsomeunitventilatorconfigurations.This
timeclockisfactorywiredtotheUVCunoccupiedbinaryinputandcan
be set to automatically place the unit into occupied and unoccupied
modes based upon its user configured schedule.
UNIT-MOUNTED TENANT OVERRIDE SWITCH
A tenant override switch is factory installed in all floor mounted units.
This tenant override switch is located near the LUI on the unit. The
tenant override switch provides a momentary contact closure that can
be used by room occupants to temporarily force the UVC into the
bypass occupancy mode from unoccupied mode.
REMOTE WALL-MOUNTED SENSOR TENANT
OVERRIDE SWITCH
The optional remote wall-mounted sensors include a tenant override
switch. This tenant override switch provides a momentary contact
closure that can be used by room occupants to temporarily force the
UVC into the bypass occupancy mode from unoccupied mode.
REMOTE WALL-MOUNTED SENSOR STATUS LED
The optional remote wall-mounted sensors each include a UVC status
LED. This status LED aids is diagnostics by indicating the UVC
occupancy mode and fault condition.
Indication LED Operation
Occupied On Continually
Unoccupied On 1-sec / Off 9-sec
Bypass On Continually
Standby On 9-sec / Off 1-sec
Fault On 5-sec / Off 5-sec

Space Temperature Setpoints
The UVC uses the six occupancy-based temperature setpoints as the
basis to determine the Effective Setpoint Output. The UVC will
calculatetheeffectivesetpointbasedupontheunitmode,theoccupancy
mode, and the values of several network variables. The effective
setpoint is then used as the temperature setpoint that the UVC will
maintain.
Temperature Setpoints Abr. Defaults
Unoccupied Cool UCS 82.4OF (28.0OC)
Standby Cool SCS 77.0OF (25.0OC)
Occupied Cool OCS 73.4OF (23.0OC)
Occupied Heat OHS 69.8OF (21.0OC)
Standby Heat SHS 66.2OF (19.0OC)
Unoccupied Heat UHS 60.8OF (16.0OC)

NETWORKED SETPOINT CAPABILITY
TheSpaceTempSetpointInputvariableisusedtoallowthetemperature
setpoints for the occupied and standby modes to be changed via the
network, the unoccupied setpoints are not effected by this variable.
NETWORKED SETPOINT OFFSET CAPABILITY
The Setpoint Offset Input variable is used to shift the effective
occupied and standby temperature setpoints by adding the value of the
Setpoint Offset Input variable to the current setpoints, the unoccupied
setpoints are not effected by this variable. This variable is typically
boundtoasupervisorynetworkcontroller(byothers)ortoanetworked
wall module (by others) having a relative setpoint adjustment.
NETWORKED SETPOINT SHIFT CAPABILITY
TheSetpoint ShiftInput variableisused toshift theeffective heat/cool
setpoints. It is typically bound to a networked supervisory controller
whichprovidesfunctionssuchasoutdoorairtemperaturecompensation.
Alloccupied,standbyandunoccupiedsetpoints willbeshiftedupward
(+) or downward (-) by the corresponding value of the Setpoint Shift
Input variable.
The Setpoint Shift Input capability is not available through the
BACnet® interface.
NETWORKED SPACE TEMPERATURE
SENSOR CAPABILITY
A networked space temperature sensor can be interfaced with the
Space Temp Input variable. When the Space Temp Input variable is
used (valid value), it will automatically override the hard-wired space
temperature sensor.

EFFECTIVE SETPOINT CALCULATION EXAMPLES
The UVC calculates the effective setpoint (Effective Setpoint Output)
based upon the six occupancy setpoints for heating and cooling,
occupancy mode, and the value of the network variables Space Temp
Setpoint Input, Setpoint Offset Input and Setpoint Shift Input. The
UVC will determine if heating or cooling is required based upon the
current unit mode (Heat/Cool Mode Output) and then calculate the
required setpoint for heating or cooling. After this calculation, the
UVC sets the Effective Setpoint Output network variable equal to the
calculated setpoint. The Effective Setpoint Output is the temperature
setpoint that the UVC will maintain and which is normally displayed
on the LUI. The following table provides some examples of how the
UVC temperature setpoints are calculated.
Example D Example C Example B Example A
NOTICE
When using the optional remote wall-mounted sensor with 55OF to
85OF adjustment, the adjustment dial sets the value of the Space
Temp Setpoint Input variable. The LUI will display the Effective
Setpoint Output as shown in the Effective Setpoint Calculation
Examples.
