programmable controller for connectivity solutions

CAREL, leader in control solutions for HVAC/R, off ers the market

a product that is the expression of decades’ long experience

acquired in the design and production of programmable

controllers and in the fi eld of serial connectivity.

Its profound knowledge of HVAC/R applications and market

requirements has allowed CAREL to design a product that is at

the cutting edge, versatile and complete.

The new Supernode series is the result of the need for a controller

than can manage considerable information fl ows, from the

viewpoint of distributed intelligence of the systems, making it

ideal as a system coordinator, with simultaneous access by two

supervisory systems and the master function for multiple serial

connections.

Being fully programmable, it is adaptable to all kinds of

applications and needs.

Connectivity ports

FIELD BUS /tLAN

Optically-isolated serial

port, used to manage

devices over the Modbus

or CAREL master

protocol, such as room

terminals, expansions,

electronic valve

drivers, compressors,

inverters,….

pLAN

Serial port for the

management of

terminals (pGD, pAD,…).

Supernode, based on

its memory space and

processing speed, is

ideal as the driver for

the PGD2/3 touch

screen terminal.

USB MASTER

Connection to a pendrive for

the fast and direct upgrading of

the application, downloading

alarm logs or direct logging on

removable external hard disk .

USB SLAVE

Direct connection to a PC

without requiring additional

converters, running pCO Manager

(commissioning, monitoring,

routine maintenance and service).

BMS 1 & 2

The BMS serial ports are used

for connection to Building

Management Systems, a local

PlantVisorPRO/PlantWatchPRO

supervisor, or a remote connection

via internet or analogue/GSM

modem. The extensive range of

protocols managed by the pCO

sistema plug-in serial cards allows

communication with the most

commonly-used BMS on the

market (BACnetTM, LON, Modbus®,

SNMP, Trend, Konnex,…).

Supernode is the fi rst compact CAREL programmable controller (6 DIN modules) with 32-bit

microprocessor and embedded 4 MB fl ash memory.

• Flexible: ideal for more demanding applications, using the numerous I/Os available and

a modern and functional semi-graphic display.

• Powerful: the power of the new platform makes the management of information fast

and reliable

• Connectable: 6 serial ports available

- 2 built-in RS485 ports, one of which optically isolated

- 2 slots for BMS plug-in cards

- 2 USB ports (Master & Slave)

Integrated management of the home is

no longer a problem, using the several

connection options available on Supernode.

The versatility of the device ensures simple

control of the following:

• Ground source heat pumps;

• A series of room terminals for precise

comfort control;

• Touch screen area controller as a single

access point for global control of the

home;

• complete management of time bands;

• energy consumption

Multi-serial master

In terms of serial management, Supernode

can acquire information from three serial

ports at the same time, as the Master:

• The classic multimaster pLAN, to connect

pCO controllers, pAD, PGD0/1/2/3,…

• The optically-isolated fi eld bus, with

CAREL or Modbus® protocol

• One of the two BMS serial ports used as

Master with CAREL or Modbus® protocol.

32 bit

Guaranteed performance and reliability with the new 32-bit µP

Inputs/Outputs

The numerous universal inputs and outputs available mean the device can

be used as the main controller for various types of unit (Chiller/HP, Roof top,…)

RTC

Real Time Clock as standard for managing time bands and logs

As versatile as your requirements

PGD2/3 driver

Some types of

installation require the

simultaneous presence of a unit

terminal (PGD 0/1) and an area terminal

(PGD 2/3) to manage the entire installation from

a single position. In this case, Supernode (in the version without

built-in display) is the ideal solution as the driver that acquires information

from the unit via Field Bus or pLAN and displays it on the PGD2/3.

Supervision

The installation becomes interactive,

capable of interacting with a wide range

of supervisors and communication

systems. The vast availability of protocols

over diff erent types of networks make the

installation open to the world.

Inputs/Outputs

The numerous universal inputs and outputs available mean the device can

be used as the main controller for various types of unit (Chiller/HP, Roof top,…)

Energy

The fast digital input (with division of the pulses selectable by the application), standard on all versions, can be used to

directly read energy meters

Flexibility

Extensive adaptability to diff erent HVAC/R installations, customisable

software

1tool

The new development tool that allows the designer to manage all the phases

of the application program: design, testing, debugging and commissioning

directly in the fi eld

USB

Simple service and monitoring using the standard USB ports

Field Bus/tLAN

Integrated and optically-isolated RS485 serial port for the management

of numerous fi eld devices

A building coordinator for all occasions

Programmability

Programmability using 1Tool, plus the

availability of the optically-isolated fi eld serial

port (Field Bus/tLAN), integrated as standard,

mean numerous diff erent devices can be

managed as system coordinator.

Supernode thus acquires information from the

various devices, applying programmable logic/

strategies to make the operation of the

installation more effi cient.

Contextual display and keypad

The Supernode built-in display has the same

resolution as the pGD1 (132x64 pixels; 8 rows x 22

characters), however is more compact.

The keypad is placed horizontally underneath the

display, without screen printing, and the functions

associated with each button can be customised

and change from mask to mask.

The functions, managed by the application, are

shown on the bottom row of the display.

Supernode is the concentrator node for air-conditioning, refrigeration and humidifi cation systems.

USB

Simple service and monitoring using the standard USB ports

Semi-graphic display

Built-in semi-graphic display, 132x64 pixels, negative blue (like the PGD1)

Connectivity

Possibility to connect to two diff erent supervisor systems at the same time:

Modbus®, BACnet™, LON, etc.

Dual BMS

In large buildings, centralised

control is managed by the Building

Management System (i.e. BACnet,

LON,…). If the HVAC/R unit

maintenance personnel need to

access the unit for monitoring

and supervision, they have to get

authorisation from the system

integrator or go on site for local

control.

Supernode is designed to be the

sole point of access for monitoring

the entire installation, providing a

dedicated serial connection for the

BMS plus a further supervision port

for connection via Ethernet, GSM or

analogue modem, PlantVisor PRO,

PlantWatch PRO, or other protocols

available with the pCO sistema

boards for local or remote

supervision, independent of

the BMS.
