Chapter 1 – Product Overview Chapter 1 – Product Overview The BACnet Actuating Terminal Equipment Controller (ATEC) is the Siemens Industry FLN controller used in pressure independent Variable Air Volume applications (See the following figure.). It provides Direct Digital Control (DDC) for eight applications, and can operate independently as a stand-alone DDC room controller or networked with a field panel. The controller provides all input/output, system, and local communication connecti

Chapter 2 – Applications Chapter 2 – Applications Basic Operation The BACnet ATEC provides Direct Digital Control (DDC) for Variable Air Volume (VAV) terminal box applications. Temperature control varies with the application. If present, heating can be provided by hot water, up to three stages of electric reheat, or optional baseboard radiation. Sequencing Logic (optional) This application has the additional capability to sequence the flow and mechanical heating when heated supply air i

Chapter 2 – Applications Calibration Air Velocity Sensor Calibration of the controller's internal air velocity sensor is periodically required to maintain accurate air velocity readings. Calibration may be set to take place automatically or manually. Autozero Module (AZM) Used when damper cannot be closed and constant airflow is needed. For a controller used with an AZM, calibration occurs without closing the damper. Application 6520, 6521, 6522, 6523. For a controller used without

Chapter 2 – Applications Modulate Damper During Heating Mode (optional) CAUTION If the damper is set to modulate in heating mode, make sure the controller is in the appropriate mode for the current supply air temperature. Applications that have a heating source (valve/electric) can be configured to modulate the flow setpoint in sequence with the heating source. Hot Water Reheat CAUTION Do not set HTG FLOW MIN to 0 cfm (0 lps). A minimum airflow should be provided across the

Chapter 2 – Applications Baseboard Radiation Baseboard radiation can be a two-position valve or electrical resistance heating. If the controller is in cooling mode, the heating valve is closed. When in heating mode, the controller will operate the heating valve to maintain the heating setpoint. Electric Heat Interlock CAUTION Do not set EHEAT FLOW (the defined minimum) to less than 5%; otherwise, the electric heat interlock will be disabled. The electric heat stages will be dis
