Introduction

This manual provides information regarding the MicroTech® III Additional Instructions and Information
control system. It specifically describes the operation and
programmable options for units with refrigeration only controls For installation and startup instructions and general information
(ROC). regarding a Rebel™ rooftop unit, refer to the applicable model-
specific installation and maintenance manual (Table 1).
The ROC MicroTech III Controller is a device that is not
capable of complete, stand-alone operation. Information in the
controller can be displayed and modified by using the keypad/ Table 1: Installation and Maintenance Resources
display in the units main control panel. The ROC systems Unit Manual
require a third-party controller for the Rebel unit to function.

Adjusting PI Control Parameters

The rooftop MicroTech III controller uses a “velocity” form of NOTICE
the traditional PI loop arranged such that the output is adjusted This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
based on a “gain” parameter multiplied by the “projected” error. and, if not installed and used in accordance with this instruction manual,
The projected error is determined based on the rate the error is may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and
changing as shown in Figure 1. found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
Figure 1: Projected Error Timeline protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user is
required to correct the interference at his own expense. Daikin Applied
disclaims any liability resulting from any interference or
for the correction thereof.

WARNING
Electric shock hazard. Can cause personal injury or
equipment damage.
This equipment must be properly grounded. Connections and service to the
control panel must be performed only by personnel that are knowledgeable
in the operation of the equipment being controlled.

The change in output (Do) after each sample period (ST) is

given by the following equation:
Do= Gain X Projected Error.
Although it is generally recommended that they are left at the
factory settings there are four PI loop adjustment parameters
available via the MicroTech III HMI. These are Gain, Period
(ST), Project Ahead Time (PAT) and Max Change.
Generally speaking, the PAT should be set roughly equal to the
“time constant” of the system being controlled and the Period
(ST) one quarter to half the PAT. The Gain is then set to
achieve control stability. If the system is unstable (hunting) the
control is too fast and the Gain should be decreased to slow
the control response. If the system takes excessively long to
reach setpoint during transient conditions (sluggish) the Gain
can be increased to speed the control response. The goal is
an acceptable balance between these two conditions. When in
doubt these parameters should be set to the factory settings.

IFB Board
The IFB board is used to translate between the MicroTech III interconnected forming the ACS1 communication loop. On
controller Modbus and the Daikin inverter compressor/outdoor 208/230V units the A4P board controls both INV and OF1. On
fan boards’ proprietary protocol. 460/575V units the A4P board controls only INV and there is
a separate A5P board that controls OF1. If a unit is equipped

Normal Heat Pump Control

Normal Heating
In the Normal Heating state the following are accomplished:
• Compressor capacity (INV and Comp 3) is regulated to maintain the DAT at either the Discharge Air Temperature Heating
Setpoint (Unit State=Heating) or the Minimum Discharge Air Temperature Spt (Unit State=MinDAT)
• Outdoor coil expansion value (EVO) is modulated to maintain the suction superheat at the suction superheat setpoint
• Indoor coil expansion valve (EVI) is controlled to maintain indoor coil subcooling at the indoor coil subcooling setpoint (heat
pump)
• Outdoor fan(s) are set to maximum and then decreased if the suction pressure is high (above 162.2 psi) or increased back
toward the maximum if the suction pressure is low (below 106.7 psi).
When in the Normal Heating state the action of the heating control devices is as follows:

When the Htg EVI Method is set to 100%, the indoor expansion valve is driven to the 100% open position.
When the Htg EVI Method is set to SbC, the indoor expansion valve is controlled to maintain the indoor coil subcooling at
the indoor coil subcooling temperature setpoint.

 Troubleshooting

The Check 1, Check 2 and Check 3 procedures on page 74 and 75 are used to troubleshoot many error codes.

CHECK 1
Check on connector of fan motor (Power supply cable)
1. Turn OFF the power supply.
Measure the resistance between phases of U,V,W at the
motor side connectors (three-core wire) to check that
the values are balanced and there is no short circuiting,
while connector or relay connector is disconnected.

CHECK 2
1. Turn OFF the power supply.
2. Measure the resistance between Vcc and each phase
of U, V, W, and GND and each phase at the motor side
connectors (five-core wire) to check that the values are
balanced within the range of ± 20 %, while connector or
relay connector is disconnected. Furthermore, to use a
multiple meter for measurement, connect the probe of
negative pole to Vcc and that of positive pole to GND.

temperature 115°C)
• Check the fan load and supply voltage: Measure the input power at max. load/ operating point and compare the
measured value with nominal data on the label. Is there any discrepancy?
• Reset the failure; re-start the motor and observe it.

Repeated occurrence:
Question: Do other fans show the same failure?
Yes: Systematic search for the reason of too high ambient temperature, overload, overvoltage or low voltage.
Perhaps use a data logger.
No: It seems to be a hardware problem of the fan. Fan need to be replaced.

BLK = Locked Motor

First occurrence:
Question: • Is it possible that the motor was locked by an obstruction or ice?
• Do other fans show the same behaviour?
Corrective: Remove the reason for blocking. Caused by ice: activate the shake-loose functionality (starting with ModBus 5) or
increase the starting phase control factor.

Repeated occurrence:
Question: • Does increasing the starting phase control factor improve the situation?
No: It seems to be a hardware problem of the fan. Fan need to be replaced.

SKF = Communication Error

First occurrence:
Power fluctuations may be responsible.
Corrective: Reset the failure; re-start the motor and observe it. If applicable, filter out the source of the disturbing signal.

Repeated occurrence:
Question: • Do other fans show the same failure?

Question: • Can the main voltage be measured at any spot; a data logger may be helpful.
No: Measure the voltage at the power supply input of the concerned fan.
Corrective: • Reset the failure; re-start the motor and observe it.
• If applicable, filter out the source of disturbing signal.

Repeated occurrence:
Question: • Do other fans show the same failure?
• How often does the failure occur?
• Get big electrical consumer loads switched at the same time when the failure occurs in the surrounding area?
• Are compressors or large asynchronous motors applied within the arrangement?
Yes: Systematic search for external disturbance voltage peaks; If applicable, usage of data logger for a longer
period and analysis of the measured values.
• Are the voltage values within the specified range?
No: It seems to be a hardware problem of the fan. Fan need to be replaced.
