VCES-DDC-IOM-1C 3
The DDC control package is programmed for a range of temperature control and scheduling modes which are field selectable. The control package enables the VHC to control discharge air temperature, room/return air tem-perature or discharge in conjunction with room air tem-perature based on sensor readings. It can also be used to control the amount of air being recirculated back into the building.
This manual provides instructions and information on configuring and adjusting the control for a specific stand alone or networking application.
• No extra controls needed to accommodate discharge air temperature control.
• A room thermostat may be used to control room heating and cooling.
• A room humidistat may be used to control room humidity.
• Native BACnet firmware with MS/TP RS485 protocol.• Can be optionally interfaced with many different
protocols with the use of a terminal server, like Lon-works, Modbus, Metasys, etc.
A low voltage Field Wiring (FW) interface terminal strip is provided for shipped loose or field supplied controls, sensor or interlock connections to fully integrate the unit. Interconnections to a BMS are minimal. Refer to Appendix
G and H in the VHC-36, 42 and 50 Installation, Opera-tion and Maintenance Instructions Manual, for example of start-up connections, plus input and output connections available.

The DDC control package includes a four-button user in-terface called the BacStat II. This device can be mounted anywhere and when room air tempering is needed, can be configured as a room thermostat. A wide range of config-uration options are included and can be accessed through the BacStat (see Figure 2).
For stand alone operation an external dry contact (ex: re-mote time clock, CO2 sensor or manual selector switch, etc.) for scheduling mode must be provided by others or is available as an accessory item. This is the only connection required to start single-speed units.
The Delta DDC is a native BACnet device that can com-municate over an RS-485 network running between 9,600 and 76,800 baud. Delta products are tested for interoper-ability between multiple vendors at the BACnet Testing Laboratory (BTL). The use of a BTL listed front end will greatly simplify network installation and allow problemfree communication.
When connected to the network, all scheduling can be taken over by the front end control system (provided by others). Additional access is provided to dozens of control variables which give the Building Management System as much control as needed (with the exception of critical functions, such as the defrost strategy and other fail safes).
Occupied Ventilation (Ov)Jumper across FW 304–305. This is the main mode that will enable the unit to run in 100% fresh air mode. Free cooling and defrost will initiate based on the setpoint.
Unoccupied (Un)No jumpers on any of the terminals 304, 305, 306, 307 or 308. The unit will turn off.
Unoccupied Recirculation (Ur) (Optional)Jumper across FW 305–306. The unit will turn off un-less there is a call for heating/cooling or dehumidification across the heating/cooling or dehumidification contacts. This call must come from an optional thermostat or hu-midistat. The unit will run in recirc mode upon a call.
Occupied Recirculation (Or) (Optional)Jumper across FW 306–307. The unit will run and recirc a percentage of air. The outside and exhaust air dampers may be adjusted to open a certain percentage, thus reduc-ing the amount of fresh air and increasing the amount or recirc air.
Adjust the following parameters:
#143 – Outside Air Damper Minimum Setpoint• Limits: 0–100%• Factory set: 100%• BACnet variable: AV150• Function: The outside air damper minimum setpoint
is set in conjunction with the exhaust air damper minimum setpoint to allow for the required recircula-tion air.
#144 – Exhaust Air Damper Minimum Setpoint• Limits: 0–100%• Factory set: 100%• BACnet variable: AV151• Function: The exhaust air damper minimum setpoint
is set in conjunction with the outside air damper minimum setpoint to allow for the required recircula-tion air.
Building Management System SchedulingAlternatively the software point MV12 can be used to schedule the unit as described above. If this method is

being used then you must not provide any jumpers to ter-minals 304, 305, 306, 307 or 308.
The remote unit control multi-state variable is used to en-able the unit through a Bacnet interface. Set MV12 to:
• 2 for unoccupied mode.• 4 for occupied recirculation mode (optional).• 6 for unoccupied recirculation mode (optional).• 10 for ventilation mode.
The VHC unit can be configured to control building tem-perature a variety of ways. Adjust #153 – Zone Configura-tion to change temperature control to discharge air, room air or return air control. Default settings from factory allow the unit to be controlled by discharge air temperature.
Adjust the following setpoint:
#153 – Zone Configuration• Limits: NO, RM, RET• Factory set: NO• BACnet variable: MV11 function – Zone configura-
tion allows the unit to be used for zone heating and cooling. – NO: No zone control (discharge only) – RM: Room air zone control (BacStat II) – RET: Return air zone control (RA temp sensor)
Discharge Air Temperature Control (MV11 = NO)This type of control is used when the VHC is required to maintain a discharge temperature only. The BacStat will not provide room control in this mode. An optional ther-mostat may be used to provide additional heating or cool-ing when connected to the heating override or cooling override terminals on the FW terminal strip (see Override Contact Control (Optional)).
Adjust the following setpoints:
#107 – Cooling Setpoint• Limits: 50–80°F [10–27°C]• Factory set: 60°F• BACnet variable: AV10 function – The cooling set-
point is the temperature that the reheat will heat the supply air up to (summer mode only).
#115 – Coil Leaving Setpoint• Limits: 40–65°F [4–18°C]• Factory set: 55°F• BACnet variable: AV143 function – The coil leav-
ing setpoint is the temperature that the cooling coil will cool the coil leaving air temperature down to during discharge air temperature control (summer mode only).
#111 – Heating Setpoint• Limits: 50–105°F [10–40°C]
• Factory set: 80°F• BACnet variable: AV20• Function: The heating setpoint is the temperature
that the post heat will heat the supply air up to dur-ing discharge air temperature control (winter mode only).
Room Air Temperature Control (MV11 = RM)The BacStat must be mounted in the room for this type of control.
This type of control is used when you want to maintain a room temperature. The VHC will heat/cool based on the BacStat temperature. An optional thermostat can be used to provide additional heating or cooling when connected to the heating override or cooling override terminals on the FW terminal strip (see Override Contact Control (Op-tional)).
Adjust the following setpoints:
#147 – Summer Zone Setpoint• Limits: 60–80°F [15–25°C]• Factory set: 70°F• BACnet variable: AV84 function – The summer zone
setpoint is the room or return air setpoint for sum-mer mode.
#150 – Winter Zone Setpoint• Limits: 60–80°F [15–25°C]• Factory set: 70°F• BACnet variable: AV87• Function: The winter zone setpoint is the room or re-
turn air setpoint for winter mode.
Return Air Temperature Control (MV11 = RET)This type of control is used when you want to maintain a return temperature. This application is typical for VHC units providing air to several rooms. The VHC will heat/cool based on the return air temperature. An optional thermostat can be used to provide additional heating or cooling when connected to the heating override or cooling override terminals on the FW terminal strip (see Override Contact Control (Optional)).
Temperature Control Configuration
VCES-DDC-IOM-1C 6
Adjust the following setpoints:
#147 – Summer Zone Setpoint• Limits: 60–80°F [15–25°C]• Factory set: 70°F• BACnet variable: AV84• Function: The summer zone setpoint is the room or
return air setpoint for summer mode.#150 – Winter Zone Setpoint• Limits: 60–80°F [15–25°C]• Factory set: 70°F• BACnet variable: AV87• Function: The winter zone setpoint is the room or re-
turn air setpoint for winter mode.
Override Contact Control (Optional)Alternatively the unit may be controlled by its heating, cooling, dehumidification contacts. The heating contact is only provided on units with heating options and the cool-ing/dehumidification contact is only provided on units with cooling options. An optional room thermostat (or contact closure) may be used to provide a dry contact closure across terminals FW 314–315 for cooling, or FW 318–319 for heating.
These override contacts can be used in any of the three temperature control modes listed above. When the unit
is running normally, it will run based on its corresponding setpoints. When an override contact is made, the unit will change its setpoints as follows:
#118 – Coil Override Leaving Setpoint• Limits: 40–65°F [4–18°C]• Factory set: 50°F• BACnet variable: AV146• Function: The coil override leaving setpoint is the
temperature that the cooling coil will cool the coil leaving air temperature down to during room air temperature/humidity control (summer mode only).
#121 – Heating Override Setpoint• Limits: 50–105°F [10–40°C]• Factory set: 90°F• BACnet variable: AV140• Function: The heating override setpoint is the tem-
perature that the post heat will heat the supply air up to during room air temperature control (winter mode only).
An optional humidistat may be used to provide a dry contact closure across terminals FW 316–317 for dehumidification.
In order to give more flexibility to the user, the setpoints are fully adjustable from the BacStat interface. For a full modulating system (ex. SCR electric heat) you only need to adjust the setpoint value. When using a binary switch (ex. summer/winter changeover) or when staging a device (ex. compressors), a span or differential is needed to separate the ‘On’ and ‘Off’ point to eliminate the fast cycling. In this case, Venmar CES uses the Setpoint-Span-Reset ad-justment method.
• The Setpoint is the value to reach.• The Span is the band width between the ‘On’ and
‘Off’ point.• The Reset is the percentage of the span value under
the setpoint (refer to Figure 3).

Summer/Winter ChangeoverThe summer setpoint, parameter #104, is the tempera ture setpoint that the outdoor air temperature sensor must reach in order to change from heating to cooling or visa versa. When the outdoor air temperature is above this setpoint, you will be in summer mode and your heating components will be disabled. When the outdoor air tem-perature is below this setpoint, you will be in winter mode and your cooling components will be disabled.
Adjust the following setpoints:
#104 – Summer Setpoint• Limits: 5–80°F [−15–27°C]• Factory set: 60°F• BACnet variable: AV5• Function: The summer setpoint is the temperature for
the unit to changeover between summer and winter modes of operation.
#105 – Summer Span• Limits: 1–8°F [0.5–5°C]• Factory set: 4°F• BACnet variable: AV6• Function: The summer span is the differential above

IMPORTANT – COMPRESSOR SAFETYIf either non-freeze switch is made for over two minutes, the last on compressor shuts down for lockout time (selectable, minimum of five minutes). If the non-freeze switch is on for another two minutes, then the first on compressor shuts down for lockout time. If the low pres-sure switch has tripped three times, the compressor will lock off until power is removed from the unit. If on either circuit, the high pressure switch is made, their respective compressor shuts down (manual reset required). There is a minimum of a five minute anti-cycling time before compressors will stage.

WSHP.Economizer.CoilIf the outside air temperature is above summer setpoint (adjustable) and if the water entering temperature is below the economizer coil setpoint (adjustable) the econo-mizer coil valve will modulate to maintain the coil leaving air temperature. If the economizer coil valve is open 100% for more than two minutes, then the mechanical cooling will be allowed to stage on. The economizer coil valve will remain open while in mechanical cooling until the water entering temperature is above the economizer coil set-point (adjustable).
With both the economizer coil and free cooling options, if the outside air temperature is above summer setpoint and is in the free cooling range, then the economizer coil valve will close and temperature control will follow free cooling. If the outside air temperature rises above the free cooling range and the water entering temperature is below the economizer setpoint (adjustable) then the economizer coil valve will modulate and mechanical cooling will stage on to maintain the coil leaving air temperature as above.
WSHP.Freeze.ProtectionIf the unit has a water leaving temperature sensor and this temperature goes below the water leaving temperature setpoint (adjustable) then the compressor is locked off and the WSHP valve is opened.
WSHP.Head.Pressure.ControlIf the outside air temperature is above the summer set-point (adjustable) and there is the demand for mechani-cal cooling, the head pressure control valve will open to 100%. When the compressor starts, the valve will modu-late to maintain the factory set head pressure setpoint. The valve will be allowed to close to a minimum valve setpoint of 50%. If the compressor has been off for 10 minutes then the valve will close.
If the outside air temperature is below the summer set-point (adjustable) and there is a demand for mechanical heating, the head pressure control valve will open fully and remain open until the compressor has been off for 10 minutes.

• Outside air damper closes.• Recirculation damper opens.• After delay, exhaust air damper closes and exhaust
blower stops.• Supply blower keeps running.• Wheel stops.
Exhaust.Only.DefrostIf the outside air temperature is below the frost control setpoint (selectable), frost control is enabled. Frost control timing varies depending upon strategy selected.
• Outside air damper closes.• Exhaust air damper is open.• Recirculation damper stays closed (if equipped).• Exhaust blower keeps running.• Supply blower stops.• Wheel keeps running.
Preheat.Frost.PreventionIf the outside air temperature is below the frost control setpoint (selectable), frost control is enabled.
If the preheater is on/off, first stage preheating is enabled. If the outside air temperature drops below the frost con-trol setpoint plus the differential, second stage preheating is enabled. This process continues for the third and fourth stages of preheating.
If the preheater is modulating, the heater elements modu-late to maintain the frost control setpoint (selectable).
Variable.Speed.Defrost.(VSD).Frost.PreventionThe VSD frost control setting is 33°F (selectable). If the exhaust air temperature drops below the VSD control set-point (selectable), the wheel slows down to 30% of the nominal speed. The wheel continues to modulate to main-tain the frost control setpoint.
Non-defrostNo defrost strategy is implemented.
Figure 4: BacStat II
VCES-DDC-IOM-1C 12
The middle characters represent the mode the unit is in:
‘Un’ = Unoccupied.‘Ov’ = Occupied ventilation.‘Or’ = Occupied recirculation.‘Ur’ = Unoccupied recirculation.
The bottom characters represent the supply air cooling/heating setpoint. If the zone configuration is set to dis-charge air control (MV11= NO) and the unit has hot gas reheat, then this will display the cooling setpoint in sum-mer mode and the heating setpoint in the winter mode. If the unit does not have hot gas reheat then it will display the coil leaving setpoint in the summer mode. If the zone configuration is set to room or return air (MV11= RM or RET) then this will display the summer zone setpoint in the summer mode and the winter zone setpoint in the winter mode.
To navigate through the setpoints, use the on and off buttons—on to go up, off to go down. To change the set-points, use the up and down arrow buttons. Push once on the up button to go up, push it again to stop. See Appen-dix B for the entire read and read/write variables.

1. Complete wire connections between the unit and the exhaust air damper by matching the correct wire colors on the actuator and end switch with the wire colors on the schematic before installing (ACT4004, if applicable).
2. The supply air temperature sensor (SN3002) is in-cluded loose in the unit and can be found in the con-trol panel. Install the temperature sensor a minimum of 12 feet downstream of the unit. The further the sensor is from the heating/cooling source, the greater the accuracy in readings because more air mixing is allowed. Wire it to IP4 on the DDC (DDC3002). A coil of wire can be found in the supply fan cabinet behind the fan (or in the gas cabinet if applicable). One end of this coil is connected to IP4 on the DDC (DDC3002).
3. Install the BacStat II (DC3036). It is included loose in the unit and can be found in the control panel. De-termine required location and connect to terminals FW 380, 381, 382 and 383 using two twisted pair cables, the first for power connection. The LinkNet Cable needs to be balanced 100 to 120 ohm nomi-nal impedance Twisted Shielded Pair Cable, Nominal capacitance of 16PF/FT or lower (see Appendix C for networking practice).
4. Units will require a dry contact start interlock. See Stand Alone Operation or Network Operation and Ventilation Control Scheduling Modes. Determine required method, mode and terminals and make connection.

Unit ControlThe unit can be enabled in ventilation mode by jumpering FW 304 to 305. Alternatively the software point MV12 can be used to schedule the unit. If this method is being used then you must not provide any jumpers to terminals 304, 305, 306, 307 or 308.
The remote unit control multi-state variable is used to en-able the unit through a Bacnet interface.
Set MV12 to:
• 2 for unoccupied mode.• 4 for occupied recirculation mode (optional).• 6 for unoccupied recirculation mode (optional).• 10 for ventilation mode.
BacNet Interface
Interface to the DSC-1180 controller by connecting to the “Net 1” terminal as seen below.
Networking SpecificationsVenmar CES provides equipment with network integration features. The following section outlines basic practices as recognized in the industry. As an HVAC equipment manu-facturer, it is not part of Venmar CES’ mission to provide exhaustive networking design and integration services. In all cases, the advice and services of a networking professional for network design and integration should be employed.
The DDC controllers provided along with Venmar CES equipment will support two types of network connection:
• RS232 (generally used for temporary local access to unit controller – i.e. troubleshooting)
• RS485 – the following specifications pertain to RS485 connection
Most commonly, RS485 is used as the physical layer be-tween panels and unit controllers in HVAC networking
applications. See Table C1 for a summary of specifications concerning the application of RS485 networks.
Cable TypeVenmar CES recommends the use of balanced 22 to 24 AWG twisted pair with a characteristic impedance of 100–120 ohms, capacitance of 17 pF/ft or lower, with a braided shield.
Network ConfigurationRS485 networks use a daisy chain configuration (only one main cable, every device being connected directly along its path).
Figure C2 illustrates two improper network configurations and the proper daisy chain configuration.
Note that there are no troubleshooting methods for these improper types of networks.
The use of an improper network configuration may result in undesirable and unpredictable effects on unit function-alities.
Only the daisy chain configuration is correct for a RS485 network. Figure C3 shows connection in the middle of a daisy chain.

IMPORTANTValues shown are based on starting at a count of one. When using Johnson Controls/Metasys, set the values one lower than shown as they start at zero.
VCES-DDC-IOM-1C 20
Maximum Number of DevicesA maximum of 32 nodes are allowed on a single daisy chain segment. A node is defined as any device (Panel, Zone, Repeater, etc.) connected to the RS485 network. Terminators do not count as a node. Figure C3 shows an example of a system with 5 nodes.
TerminationBoth ends of a daisy chain segment require termination to ensure reliable operation. After the last device on each end of an RS485 network, install a DNT294 Network Ter-minator. The DNT294 (shown in Figure C5 below) provides the correct termination for not only the network, but proper termination of the shield as well.
Shielding and GroundingFigure C6 shows preferred shielding and grounding methods.
Unit AddressingThe BacNet address of a unit is sent out as address 1 from the factory. This address can be adjusted by setting the dip switches located on the DSC-1180 controller. See Figure C7.

All DDC units come with a “BacStat” which can act as a room thermostat where you can change the heating set-point, cooling setpoint, summer setpoint and many more. The BacStat will act as a remote panel and should be looked at first when there is any issue with the unit.
The supply air sensor also functions like a low limit sensor. This is not to be confused with the “LL” alarm indicated above. This sensor has adjustable setpoint limit and time delay accessible through the BacStat points. If the supply air sensor is not connected, it will register as a −59 and the unit will not run after its time delay.
The middle characters represent the mode the unit is in:
