Data Alarm Processor III
(DAP™ III)
Data Aire’s Data Alarm Processor III (DAP III) continues the tradition of advanced electronic devices from
Data Aire for monitor and control of computer room air conditioning units which began in 1977, over thirty years ago.
Each generation of these devices has provided more accurate monitoring information and fl exibility in controlling the
unit. The DAP III, microprocessor, based on the popular non-proprietary protocol, Modbus RTU, is equipped with
fl ash memory and along with the standard USB port permits fast and easy software updates. The modular design
offer installation and upgrades fl exibility. Should you need to upgrade your unit simply pop in a new board. As in the
past the DAP III communicates directly with all major building management system (BMS). Just add a communica-
tions card and you are connected. One new exciting feature of the DAP III is a real time clock allowing you to pin-
point problems, precisely knowing what occurred and when. A new hierarchal menu structure permits easy and fast
access making programming simple.
The DAP III is the latest in microprocessor design and will keep your computer room air conditioning unit running ef-
fi ciently for a long time.
While the DAP III has two distinct looks they are identical as far as program and function. This Operation Manual cov-
ers both the unit and wall mount.
The unit mounted DAP III panel, shown to the left,
comes standard on all fl oor mount Data Aire units.
The wall mounted DAP III panel, shown to the right, is
standard on all Mini-Plus, LCS, and Shelf units. It can
also be an option on the Mini and fl oor mounted units.
