Occupancy Control
Warning!
This section applies to all Control Point series: the Control Point and Control Point VAV.
This feature allows a user to control occupancy through the following parameters or in the iSMA Configurator:
OCCUPIED_MODE: allows to set an occupancy mode in the panel according to the table below:
Parameter value | Occupancy mode |
|---|---|
0 | Unoccupied |
1 | Occupied |
Modbus register: 41702;
BACnet object: MSV4, property: Present Value;
CURRENT_OCCUPIED_STATUS: allows to set a current occupancy status. The current occupancy status is displayed on the bottom right corner icon (a person inside a house icon – occupied, outside the house – unoccupied);
Parameter value | Occupancy Status |
|---|---|
0 | Unoccupied |
1 | Occupied |
2 | Standby |
3 | Forced occupied |
Modbus register: 41701;
BACnet object: MSV3, property: Present Value.
This value can be updated in two ways depending on the OCCUPIED_CONFIG_LOCAL_MODE parameter:
OCCUPIED_CONFIGURATION: allows to configure the following parameters:
VISIBILITY: allows to activate or deactivate the occupancy current status visibility in the display;
Modbus register: 41707, bit 0;
BACnet object: MSV4, property: Out of service;
EDITION: enables or disables the occupancy to be edited locally from the panel;
Modbus register: 41707, bit 1;
BACnet object: MSV4, property: 4200.
FAST_EDIT_MODE: allows to switch between the fan normal edit (default) and fan fast edit modes;
Modbus register: 41707, bit 5;
BACnet object: BO61, property: Present Value;
Normal edit mode: In the normal edit mode, any change of the edited value has to be confirmed with an occupancy button (Control Point series) or OK button (Control Point VAV series). The new value is signalized by a double blink of its name and assigned icon, and a double buzzer signal (if enabled, DEVICE_CONFIGURATION, bit 0). Once the new value selection is completed, the main menu is displayed. Pressing the fan (Control Point series) or menu (Control Point VAV) button, before confirming the new value, cancels setting the new value, and the user gets back to the main menu. If the new value is not confirmed during a time value stored in the EXIT_EDIT_TIME register, its setting is failed and the main menu is displayed.
Fast edit mode: In the fast edit mode, the change of the edited value value does not need any confirmation. The new value is saved either by pressing any button or when the EXIT_EDIT_TIME elapses. The new value is signalized by a double blink of its name and assigned icon, and a double buzzer signal (if enabled, DEVICE_CONFIGURATION, bit 0). Once the new value is saved, the main menu is displayed.
OCCUPIED_CONFIG_LOCAL_MODE: allows to set the occupancy to the local mode or BMS mode (default);
Modbus register: 41707, bit 6;
BACnet object: BO62, property: Present Value.
Local mode: the panel's occupancy setting is set to a local mode (the value of the CURRENT_OCCUPIED_STATUS register is determined by the value of the OCCUPIED_MODE register and so the value of the CURRENT_OCCUPIED_STATUS register cannot be overwritten by the higher level system);
BMS mode: the panel's occupancy setting is set to the BMS mode. The OCCUPIED_MODE register works separately from the CURRENT_OCCUPIED_STATUS register.
OCCUPIED_MODE_NAME: four registers that allow to set a unique 4-letter name for occupied/unoccupied states;
Modbus registers: 41703-41706;
BACnet object: MSV4, property: State.
User Interface for Occupancy Control
Occupancy control can also be performed using the touch panel (see Operating User Interface). It is possible to change the occupancy mode depending on the configurations:
OCCUPIED_CONFIGURATION, bit 1:
How to Change the Occupancy on the Touch Panel?
Press a + or - button to enter an edit mode (display should start blinking with a current value);
Change the occupancy status using the + and - buttons.
To save a new value, press the occupancy/confirmation button.
