22.0 EXAMPLES OF INSTALLATION
The connection of pCO1 - pCO2 boards in pLAN network allows for the following functions:
1. balancing air-conditioning units working hours by spare units (in stand-by
mode) rotation
2. spare units start-up in case other units stop due to serious alarms or black-out
3. spare units start-up to compensate for the excessive thermal load
4. controlling up to 8 air-conditioning units by a single external LCD terminal
5. operation of all air-conditioning units according to Master air-conditioning unit probes to adjust units operation
6. managing alarms printing and probes values by shared external terminal.
Connection in pLAN network allows configuring a wide range of systems. The following list includes the main system types to be possibly
created, in order of complexity, and provides suggestions for executing connections:
1. one or more independent air-conditioning units (board(s) with pLAN address 1 + external terminal(s), if any, with pLAN address 25);
2. two or more air-conditioning units and one external terminal (boards with pLAN addresses 1-8 connected with Rs485 via J11,
terminal with pLAN address 32 connected with one of the boards); this connection allows for the functions listed in the previous
paragraph;
3. two or more air-conditioning units in pLAN network, each provided with private display (boards with pLAN addresses 1-8 connected
with Rs485 via J11, terminals with pLAN addresses 25-32 connected with the relevant board); this connection allows for the functions
listed in the previous paragraph.
Networks in which boards are connected with the pLAN allow selecting the units involved in the Rotation functions, thus obtaining a mixed
network with interacting and independent units.
pLAN connection among the boards allows using a shared external terminal (add. 32) in addition to the boards private displays; this solution is
adopted where private displays are assembled on the air-conditioning units and the shared terminal is installed inside a room.
IMPORTANT: if only one board is being used, it must have pLAN address 1; no pLAN electric connection is required and the external
terminal, if any, must have pLAN address 25.
