Notes:

A008 and A009 for Unit Code; when the status indicates “Not Available”; you wouldneed to enter the correct code for the system by the decal on the unit into A003,

A005 and A007.

Next you would select the “Unit Code Control” Parameter and use the“Save+Execute” command and then select the “Load+Execute” command. Unit CodeStatus will show “OK”

A010 and A011 for Exception List; when status indicates “Not Available”; you wouldneed to save the variables selecting “Exception List Control” and select “Load”

S821 and S843 should always be checked and Rebooted as need in a changedstatus.

Networking

This section of the manual provides a quick reference to information for setting upand networking the Liebert Systems supplied with the iCOM control. Systems

supplied with the iCOM control can be interconnected to create a private network forcommunications and control operations. There are several key factors that must beknown and considered to first setup a network and then to use the networkingprograms.

The following describes the Liebert control default settings, terminology, anddescriptions of functions and features.

Things you should know:

iCOM Control Default Settings and Ranges:

Large Display Default Settings: – IP: 192.168.254.003 – Netmask: 255.255.255.000 – Gateway: 000.000.000.000

Control Board Default Settings: – IP: 192.168.254.001 – Netmask: 255.255.255.000 – Gateway: 000.000.000.000

The U2U Address Default Setting and Range: – Large Display: 33 (range: 33 - 64) – Control Boards: 1 (range: 1 - 32)

Number of Units Connected Default Setting and Range: – 1 (range: 1 – 32)

Teamwork Default Setting and Choices: – No (choices: 1 or 2)

iCOM Terminology

PAB: Designation for the Large Display Board (Firmware)(earlier versions were designated LBB)

cdl: Designation for the Large Display Board (Hardware)

PAL: Designation for the Large Control Board (Firmware)(earlier versions were designated LBL)

gcl: Designation for the Large Control Board (Hardware)

Network Basics

The Liebert iCOM Control Network is a Class C Private Network and will usethe 192.168.254.000 to 192.168.254.255 series of static IP addresses.

The Liebert iCOM Control Network has nothing to do with the local building orowner network.

The Liebert iCOM Control Network can only be attached to the local buildingor owner network by using a Liebert WEB Card or Liebert 485 Card installedthe Liebert Intellislot.

To be able to configure a host for communicating on an IP network, at least 3pieces of information are absolutely mandatory:

• The IP addresses are to uniquely identify the host (at least within thescope of the LAN).

• The Netmask addresses are to allow for the host to identify which otherhosts are connected directly to its IP subnet.

• The Default Gateway addresses are to allow for the host to directmessages to a router that are not intended for the local IP subnet.

A series of basic rules must be followed to connect and program the units forthis private iCOM Network. Here are some of the rules to be followed.

iCOM Basic Programming for a Network….

By default, each iCOM unit will try to establish a connection with other iCOM units in the same IP address subnet in order to create a group.

Whether or not this group of units will then act as a system depends oncertain iCOM application parameters, the group of iCOM units needs to beprogrammed in a specific “order”.

Small Displays use CAN connections only. Small Displays do not have aNetwork View or an IP Address.

Small Displays are networked with a CAT 5 crossover cable directly connectedbetween large control board of each unit. Only two (2) units can be networkedusing this arrangement.

27


28/47


All Large Displays and Control Boards will use a CAT 5 or greater straightthrough (patch) cable to connect to the switch when networked.

An IP address number will be used to identify each receiver / sender ofinformation. Each large control board and each large display must have their

own individual IP Address. Each set of boards must be set up individually, then connected to the network

switch and checked before the next set of boards are connected to the switch.Connect the next set of boards to the switch one at a time and verifycommunications through the switch. Start with the last unit in group.

To locate the Network menu program selection in the cont rol:

Simply navigate the display by pressing▼

Down to move from System screen to Unit screen then,▼ Down to move from the Unit screen to the User Menu screen then,► Right to move from User Menu screen to the Service Menu screen.

Now press the Enter Key to highlight the Setpoints icon. Using the right► and down ▼ arrow keys navigate to Network icon and press the Enter key to select.

These parameters will be designated as the S800 series of parameters.

In the network parameters view there are two screens in each set of pages.The first set of pages are for the Large Display (called System Views with thefirmware designation PAB). The second set of pages are for the unit ControlBoard (called Unit Views with the firmware designation PAL). The user selectsthe ▼ or ▲ arrow keys for page 1 or 2 of the Large Display (PAB) and ► right arrow key to get to the Large Control Board (PAL) then the ▼ or ▲ arrowkeys to access page 1 or 2. Pressing the left ◄ arrow key will return thescreens to return to the Display.

The Plan for Networking

For “ iCOM System Networks” the room and equipment lay out is critical for thetype of program selected for functionally and…...

– Unit locations (loads, air flow, etc) – Unit name and number designations (identity) – Unit configurations (which type of programs)

Basic Rules to Apply

Multi-zones – No Teamwork

Balanced Loads – Small room – Teamwork 1

Unbalanced Loads – Large room – Teamwork 2

31/47


Use as your GuideThe Plan

Each unit that is to be connected into the network requires a Read andRecord Form be completed prior to making any program changes in thecontrols. All programmed parameters located in the User, Service and

Advanced Menus must be recorded.

A blank Multi-Unit Setup Chart must be completed for the planned number ofunits to be connected into the network. This plan will be used to identify thenumerically identify the units, list each new IP Address , and Unit-2-Unit (U2U)

Address.

Remember the floor plan is the key. All units must be named for correctoperation when selecting the programs for networking.

Teamwork Operation Guide All Networked units will run in the same Teamwork Mode (No Teamwork,

Mode 1 or Mode 2).

No auto changeover from TW mode to mode

Cascade brings the units on/off as the Temperature or Humidity goes up/down

Teamwork 1 only cascades standby units

Teamwork 1 – Alarms in operational units can activate the standby units

Teamwork 1 – Autoset controls the settings – More than two units must use integration

Teamwork: No or TW 1 or TW2 – Uses standard settings for Temperature/Humidity

• Autoset adjusts the proportional band (TW 1)• Autoset will not adjust the proportional band (No TW or TW 2)

– No Teamwork (no shared values)• Standby – Rotation allowed (no Cascading)

– Teamwork 1 (shared values)• Unit #1 determines the operational requirements (unit numbering

key)• Standby - Rotation• Cascade

– Teamwork 2 (shared values)• Most demanding operational request determines the operational

requirements (unit numbering key)• Opposite operational functions prevented (stops Fighting)• Standby – Rotation allowed (no Cascading)

– System Deviation• System T/H values compared to system setpoint and

proportional band (all values found in system screen)• Unit #1 calculates deviation. (0 - 100%)

– Proportional Band (relative part distribution)• Full band divided by number of available units.• 2 units: Unit #1 operates in 1-50% (first half) of the proportional

band, Unit #2 operates in 51 – 100% (second half) of theproportional band

• Applies to all functions – Cooling, Heating, Humidification andDehumidification.

– Changing Setpoints, Proportional Band or Dead Band will reset theshared parameters.

– Autoset will control the proportional band if enabled in Teamwork 1. – Cascading

• 2 units standby + cascade• First unit is 1 - 50% and second unit is 51 - 100%• Standby unit waiting for an alarm or additional requirement•

As the need for an additional function is required the standby willcome on and start fan with load. (Minimum run time is 4 hours fora cascade unit)

• T/H of cascade unit not shared for system average

– Network units have same set points but not P-Band or D-band – Networked units have no magic override if a unit is locked out – If the switch used in the network fails all units will run in normal single

unit mode – Diagnostics of networking hardware and system require special tools.

Networking and troubleshooting requires a good understanding of manydetails and requires practice to get it right the first time.

Preparing for NetworkingSteps:

1. Become familiar with the room layout and unit placement.2. Determine total number of units to be networked.3. Define control programs and method(s) to be used – lead./.lag, rotation,

groups, teamwork mode, cascade.4. Determine U2U configurations to be used.5. Determine number and location of network switches and power requirements.6. Determine number of patch cables to be used and lengths.7. Make network wiring connections to unit control boards and large displays.8. Review unit Control Board and Large Display Setup parameters:

• Define IP Address• Define Netmask Number• Define Gateway Number• Define U2U Address• More

9. Create a network setup sheet (map) to document how each unit isprogrammed and connected (use labels).
