Sensor- A Sensor is a device that converts a physical
property such as temperature, pressure, relative humidity,
flow etc. into an electrically or mechanically measurable
signal.
Transducer- A transducer is a device that converts oneform of energy to another form of energy such as
pneumatic to electric or vice versa.
Transmitter- Output from a sensor or a transducer may
not be strong enough to be transmitted over long distances.Transmitter is a device used to amplify the signal.
Controller- It is a device that compares the signal from a
Sensor, Transducer or Transmitter with the desired value
and generates a signal based on error.
Actuator- It is an electric, pneumatic or a mechanicaldevice which generally converts a low value signal to a
signal with sufficient force to overcome the forces acting on
control device and to actuate it.

Controlled Device- It receives signal from controller and
varies the flow of control agent like water, air. It may be a
damper or a valve connected to an actuator.
Stat- Combination of sensor and controller functioning in
one device is often called a stat like thermostat,
humidistat, etc.
Set-Point- It is desired value of the controlled variable.
Process & Controlled Variable- In an air-conditioning
system, parameter being controlled such as temperature,RH, pressure etc. is controlled variable and the changes in
these parameters is due to influencing factors in process.
Control Medium- It is the air, steam or water the flow
regulation of which influences the process to get thedesired value of controlled variable

Control Loop
The process of controlling an HVAC
system involves three steps. These steps
include first measuring data, then
processing the data with other informationand finally causing a control action. These
three functions make up what is known as
a control loop

Controller
The controller processes data that is input fromthe sensor, applies the logic of control andcauses an output action to be generated. Thissignal may be sent directly to the controlleddevice or to other logical control functions andultimately to the controlled device. Thecontrollers function is to compare its input (fromthe sensor) with a set of instructions such as
setpoint, throttling range and action, thenproduce an appropriate output signal. This is thelogic of control.

Controller Responses
Control responses are typically one the
following:
Two-Position
Floating
Proportional (P only)
Proportional plus Integral (PI) Proportional plus Integral plus Derivative
(PID)

Two Position Control
Two-Position ControlTwo-position control compares the value of an analog orvariable input with instructions and generates a digital (two-
position) output. The instructions involve the definition of anupper and lower limit. The output changes its value as the
input crosses these limit values. There are no standards fordefining these limits. The most common terminology used issetpoint and differential. The setpoint indicates the point wherethe output pulls-in, energizes or is true. The outputchanges back or drops-out after the input value crosses
through the value equal to the difference between the setpointand the differential.

Figure shows an example of two-position control where the thermostat is set
to energize the Cooling system when the space temperature rises above 72
F and turn off when the temperature drops to 70F in the space. This is an
example of a setpoint of 70F with a two-degree differential.

Two Position Control-- Contd
Two-position control can be used for simplecontrol loops (temperature control) or limitcontrol (e.g. Antifreeze thermostat). The analogvalue can be any measured variable includingtemperature, relative humidity, pressure, currentand liquid levels.
Time can also be the input to a two-positioncontrol response. This control responsefunctions like a time clock with pins. The outputpulls-in when the time is in the defined ontime and drops out during the defined off time.

Floating Control
Floating control is a control response thatproduces two possible digital outputs based on achange in a variable input. One output increasesthe signal to the controlled device, while theother output decreases the signal to thecontrolled device. This control response alsoinvolves an upper and lower limit with the outputchanging as the variable input crosses these
limits. Again, there are no standards for definingthese limits, but the terms setpoint anddeadband are common. The setpoint sets amidpoint and the deadband sets the difference
between the upper and lower limits

Proportional Control
A proportional control response produces an analog or variable outputchange in proportion to a varying input. In this control response, there is alinear relationship between the input and the output.
A setpoint, throttling range and action typically define this relationship. In aproportional control response, there is a unique value of the measured
variable that corresponds to full travel of the controlled device and a uniquevalue that corresponds to zero travel on the controlled device.
The change in the measured variable that causes the controlled device tomove from fully closed to fully open is called the throttling range. It iswithin this range that the control loop will control, assuming that thesystem has the capacity to meet the requirements.
The action dictates the slope of the control response.
In a direct acting proportional control response, the output will rise with anincrease in the measured variable.
In a reverse acting response, the output will decrease as the measuredvariable increases

Proportional plus Integral (PI)
Control
PI control involves the measurement of the
offset or error over time. This error is integrated
and a final adjustment is made to the outputsignal from the proportional part of this model.
This type of control response will use the control
loop to reduce the offset to zero. A well set-up PI
control loop will operate in a narrow band closeto the setpoint. It will not operate over the entire
throttling range

20/31
Proportional plus Integral
plus Derivative (PID) Control
PID control adds a predictive element to thecontrol response. In addition to the proportionaland integral calculation, the derivative or slopeof the control response will be computed. Thiscalculation will have the effect of dampening acontrol response that is returning to setpoint soquickly that it will overshoot the setpoint.
PID is a precision process control response andis not always required for HVAC applications.The routine application of PID control to everycontrol loop is labor intensive and its application
should be selective.

based controllers with the control logic
performed by software. Analog-to-Digital
(A/D) converters transform analog valuesinto digital signals that a microprocessor
can use. Analog sensors can be
resistance, voltage or current generators

Power Requirements
1. The DDC units require UPS 24v acGenerally the VA ratings are very low and of the order of 4-6va
2. The Analog sensors also require UPS Power of 24v ac.
Output of sensors is 0 to 10v DC or 4 to 20 ma
3. VAV boxes may also have Controllers and they will needUPS power and this will be 24v ac.
4. The ups vendor may agree to provide 230v ac UPS
power and we need to step down this voltage to 24v
5. Chillers and Precision units will also have Cards that
demand 24 v ac UPS power.
Some Chillers will have inbuilt CVTs and UPS power may
not be required for the cards in such Chillers

COMMUNICATION
At the lowest level, bits are encoded in electrical, light or radio signals
by the Physical layer. Some examples include RS-232,RS 485
A somewhat higher Data link layer such as the point-to-point protocol
(PPP) may detect errors and configure the transmission system.
An even higher protocol may perform network functions. One verycommon protocol is the Internet protocol (IP), which implements
addressing for large set of protocols.
A common associated protocol is the Transmission control protocol
(TCP) which implements error detection and correction (byretransmission). TCP and IP are often paired, giving rise to the familiar
acronym TCP/IP.

Twisted-Pair Cable
Twisted-pair cableis a type of cabling that is used for
telephone communications and most modern Ethernet
networks. A pair of wires forms a circuit that can transmit
data. The pairs are twisted to provide protection against
crosstalk, the noise generated by adjacent pairs. When
electrical current flows through a wire, it creates a small,
circular magnetic field around the wire. When two wires in
an electrical circuit are placed close together, theirmagnetic fields are the exact opposite of each other. Thus,
the two magnetic fields cancel each other out. They also
cancel out any outside magnetic fields. Twisting the wires
can enhance this cancellation effect. Using cancellationtogether with twisting the wires, cable designers can
effectively provide self-shielding for wire pairs within the
network media.
Two basic types of twisted-pair cable exist: unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) and shielded twisted pair (STP).

When used as a networking medium, UTP cable has four pairs of either
22- or 24-gauge copper wire. UTP used as a networking medium has
an impedance of 100 ohms Commonly used types of UTP cabling are
as follows:
Category 1Used for telephone communications. Not suitable
for transmitting data.
Category 2Capable of transmitting data at speeds up to 4
megabits per second (Mbps).
Category 3Can transmit data at speeds up to 10 Mbps.
Category 4Can transmit data at speeds up to 16 Mbps. Category 5Can transmit data at speeds up to 100 Mbps.
Category 5e Used in networks running at speeds up to 1000
Mbps (1 gigabit per second [Gbps]).Bandwidth 100mhz
Category 6More stringent standards on noise and
crosstalk.Bandwidth 250 mhz
UTP cable often is installed using a Registered Jack 45 (RJ-45)
connector . The RJ-45 is an eight-wire connector used commonly to
connect computers onto a local-area network (LAN).

ModBusModbusis a serial communications protocol published by Modicon in
1979 for use with its programmable logic controllers (PLCs). It had
become a de facto standard communications protocol in industry, andwas the most commonly available means of connecting industrial
electronic devices. The main reasons for the extensive use of Modbus
over other communications protocols are:
1. it is openly published and royalty-free
2. it can be implemented in days, not months
3. it moves raw bits or words without placing many restrictions onvendors
Modbus allows for communication between many devices connected to
the same network, for example a system that measures temperature
and humidity and communicates the results to a computer. Modbus is
often used to connect a supervisory computer with a remote terminalunit (RTU) in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA)
systems.
