Flow Settings
The second tab of the iC Device Manager service is the Flow Settings tab. Here, it is possible to execute three basic actions and set flow parameters for the use of VAV application.
Airflow settings main view
The main view of the tab shows data read from the device.
To make sure that the data are up to date, click the Refresh button.
To enter the application settings, click the Edit button. The configuration window pops up, where it is possible to set new values to the VAV application parameters, send them to the device (or download current settings).
Worth to notice
The configuration windows contains all parameters available to set and available actions. If any parameter from the list is meant to be left as is and not to be set to a new value, check the null option. If the null option is checked, then this parameter will be omitted when sending new values to the controller.
Airflow settings window
The three available actions are:
Import: allows to upload airflow parameters from a previously saved file (*.json);
Export: allows to save current airflow settings to a .json file;
Upload: sends new settings the the device.
Warning!
Please note that if the switch 1 on the S3 DIP switch is on, the Upload action will take no effect.
The VAV application airflow parameters available to configure are:
K-Factor: allows to set a K-factor value according to the type of device for use in the airflow calculations;
Max Flow Cool: allows to set a maximum airflow value for cooling;
Min Flow Cool: allows to set a minimum airflow value for cooling;
Max Flow Heat: allows to set a maximum airflow value for heating;
Min Flow Heat: allows to set a minimum airflow value for heating;
Min Flow for Standby: allows to set a minimum airflow value in a standby state;
Min Flow Unoccupied: allows to set a minimum airflow value in an unoccupied state;
Fan Start: allows to set a minimum airflow value for a fan to start operating.
