Smoke Purge Mode — This mode attempts to draw out<br />
smoke from the space after the emergency condition. Opening<br />
the economizer (thereby closing the return-air damper), turning<br />
on both the power exhaust <strong>and</strong> indoor fan will evacuate smoke<br />
<strong>and</strong> bring in fresh air.<br />

Indoor Air Quality Control — The indoor air quality<br />
(IAQ) function will admit fresh air into the space whenever<br />
space air quality sensors detect high levels of CO2. When a space or return air CO2 sensor is connected to the<br />
unit control, the unit’s IAQ routine allows a dem<strong>and</strong>-based<br />
control for ventilation air quantity, by providing a modulating<br />
outside air damper position that is proportional to CO2 level.<br />
The ventilation damper position is varied between a minimum<br />
ventilation level (based on internal sources of contaminants<br />
<strong>and</strong> CO2 levels other than from the effect of people) <strong>and</strong> the<br />
maximum design ventilation level (determined at maximum<br />
populated status in the building). Dem<strong>and</strong> controlled ventilation<br />
(DCV) is also available when the ComfortLink unit is<br />
connected to a CCN system using ComfortID terminal<br />
controls.<br />
This function also provides alternative control methods for<br />
controlling the amount of ventilation air being admitted,<br />
including fixed outdoor air ventilation rates (measured as cfm),<br />
external discrete sensor switch input <strong>and</strong> externally generated<br />
proportional signal controls.<br />
The IAQ function requires the installation of the factoryoption<br />
economizer system. The DCV sequences also require<br />
the connection of accessory (or field-supplied) space or return<br />
air CO2 sensors. Fixed cfm rate control requires the factoryinstalled<br />
outdoor air cfm option. External control of the<br />
ventilation position requires supplemental devices, including a<br />
75<br />
4 to 20 mA signal, a 10-kilo-ohm potentiometer, or a discrete<br />
switch input, depending on the method selected. Outside air<br />
CO 2 levels may also be monitored directly <strong>and</strong> high CO 2<br />
economizer restriction applied when an outdoor air CO 2 sensor<br />
is connected. (The outdoor CO 2 sensor connection requires<br />
installation of the controls expansion module [CEM].)<br />
The ComfortLink controls have the capability of DCV using<br />
an IAQ sensor. The indoor air quality (IAQ) is measured<br />
using a CO 2 sensor whose measurements are displayed in parts<br />
per million (ppm). The IAQ sensor can be field-installed in the<br />
return duct. There is also an accessory space IAQ sensor that<br />
can be installed directly in the occupied space. The sensor must<br />
provide a 4 to 20 mA output signal. The sensor connects to<br />
TB201 terminals 7 <strong>and</strong> 8. Be sure to leave the 182-ohm resistor<br />
in place on terminals 7 <strong>and</strong> 8.<br />
OPERATION — The unit’s indoor air quality algorithm modulates<br />
the position of the economizer damper between two user<br />
configurations depending upon the relationship between the<br />
IAQ <strong>and</strong> the outdoor air quality (OAQ). Both of these values<br />
can be read at the InputsAIR.Q submenu. The lower of these<br />
two configurable positions is referred to as the IAQ Dem<strong>and</strong><br />
Vent Min Position (IAQ.M), while the higher is referred to as<br />
Economizer Minimum Position (EC.MN). The IAQ.M should<br />
be set to an economizer position that brings in enough fresh air<br />
to remove contaminants <strong>and</strong> CO 2 generated by sources other<br />
than people. The EC.MN value should be set to an economizer<br />
position that brings in enough fresh air to remove contaminants<br />
<strong>and</strong> CO 2 generated by all sources including people. The<br />
EC.MN value is the design value for maximum occupancy.<br />
The logic that is used to control the dampers in response to<br />
IAQ conditions is shown in Fig. 13. The ComfortLink controls<br />
will begin to open the damper from the IAQ.M position when<br />
the IAQ level begins to exceed the OAQ level by a configurable<br />
amount, which is referred to as Differential Air Quality<br />
Low Limit (DAQ.L).<br />
If OAQ is not being measured, OAQ can be manually configured.<br />
It should be set at around 400 to 450 ppm or measured<br />
with a h<strong>and</strong>held sensor during the commissioning of the unit.<br />
The OAQ reference level can be set using the OAQ Reference<br />
Set Point (OAQ.U). When the differential between IAQ <strong>and</strong><br />
OAQ reaches the configurable Diff. Air Quality Hi Limit<br />
(DAQ.H), then the economizer position will be EC.MN.<br />
When the IAQ–OAQ differential is between DAQ.L <strong>and</strong><br />
DAQ.H, the control will modulate the damper between IAQ.M<br />
<strong>and</strong> EC.MN as shown in Fig. 13. The relationship is a linear<br />
relationship but other non-linear options can be used. The<br />
damper position will never exceed the bounds specified by<br />
IAQ.M <strong>and</strong> EC.MN during IAQ control.<br />
If the building is occupied <strong>and</strong> the indoor fan is running <strong>and</strong><br />
the differential between IAQ <strong>and</strong> OAQ is less than DAQ.L, the<br />
economizer will remain at IAQ.M. The economizer will not<br />
close completely. The damper position will be 0 when the fan<br />
is not running or the building is unoccupied. The damper position<br />
may exceed EC.MN in order to provide free cooling.<br />
The ComfortLink controls are configured for air quality<br />
sensors which provide 4 mA at 0 ppm <strong>and</strong> 20 mA at 2000 ppm.<br />
If a sensor has a different range, these bounds must be<br />
reconfigured. These pertinent configurations for ranging the air<br />
quality sensors are IQ.R.L, IQ.R.H, OQ.R.L <strong>and</strong> OQ.R.H. The<br />
bounds represent the PPM corresponding to 4 mA (low) <strong>and</strong><br />
20 mA (high) for IAQ <strong>and</strong> OAQ, respectively.<br />
If OAQ exceeds the OAQ Lockout Value (OAQ.L), then the<br />
economizer will remain at IAQ.M. This is used to limit the use<br />
of outside air which outdoor air CO 2 levels are above the<br />
OAQ.L limit. Normally a linear control of the damper vs. the<br />
IAQ control signal can be used, but the control also supports<br />
non-linear control. Different curves can be used based on the<br />
Diff.IAQ Responsiveness Variable (IAQ.R). See Fig. 14.
