2.17 CONTROLLER MONITORING AND CONTROL SOFTWARE

A. Scan rates at the DCP and/or UC shall meet the following requirements:

1. Each analogue and digital input point shall be scanned at least once every 5 seconds.

B. DDC outputs shall be updated at a frequency defined by the operator. The operator shall be
able to select a frequency, at minimum, in the range of 2 seconds to 256 seconds.

C. The operator shall be able to define a minimum time delay between successive starts of
equipment so that disturbances created on the building electrical system are minimised in
frequency and amplitude.

D. BMS analogue and digital outputs shall change as the result of either an operator entered
command or a BMS generated software command. These two modes of BMS output are
referred to as the BMS MANUAL CONTROL mode and the BMS SOFTWARE CONTROL
mode and differ as follows:

1. In the BMS manual control mode, the signal to a final control element such as a
valve or a damper actuator and to a relay such as a motor control relay shall change
as the result of a command manually entered at one of the operator terminals. When
an output is in the BMS manual control mode, there shall be no means by which it
can switch to the BMS software control mode or by which the value or state of the
BMS output can change without operator intervention.
2. In the BMS software control mode, the signal to the final control element or relay
shall be changed automatically as the result of software such as a schedule, operating
sequence or Applications Package such as the Optimised Scheduling feature.

E. The operator shall be able to select the mode of output control for each analogue and digital
output.

F. The operator shall be able to define the minimum time delay between the stopping of a piece
of equipment and its subsequent restart. This time delay shall be in effect for motors in the
BMS software control mode and for motors in the BMS manual control mode.

G. If there is a discrepancy between the actual and BMS commanded state of a motor then, unless
the discrepancy arises because of control of the motor by the fire alarm system or because of a
power failure, the motor control relay shall be set automatically to the OFF state, an alarm
shall be generated and the motor shall be placed in the BMS manual control mode. If the
discrepancy has arisen because of override control by the fire alarm system, then the motor
shall be restarted by the BMS in accordance with the procedure detailed in the paragraph titled
"Equipment Restart Following a Fire Alarm". If the discrepancy has arisen because of a
power failure, then the motor shall be restarted by the BMS in accordance with the procedure
detailed in the paragraph titled "Equipment Restart Following a Power Failure". In all cases a
motor shall only restart following an operator manually entered command

H. The BMS shall not override any hardwired interlocks such as those provided at motor starters
for overload protection, damper interlock, pressure interlock, etc. and those provided to
facilitate control by the Fire Alarm System regardless of the BMS output control mode.

I. Unless stated otherwise elsewhere in these Specifications, the modulation of final control
elements by the BMS in the BMS software control mode shall be based on a Proportional-
Integral-Derivative (PID) control algorithm. The control constants for the PID algorithm shall
be definable by the operator. Even if self-tuning algorithms are provided, it shall still be
possible for the operator to manually tune the control loops. The software shall incorporate
facilities to enable the bumpless transfer of a modulating output from BMS manual control to
BMS software control and vice versa and the prevention of integral wind-up. PID algorithms
shall maintain the system operation within the desired tolerance around the setpoint. Setpoint
tolerances shall be as follows:

the supply air temperature would be outside the alarm limits established for the operating
state. An interactive procedure shall enable the operator to link any analogue value to a digital
input so as to inhibit unnecessary alarms. Points with their alarms locked out shall continue to
be displayed on reports and VDU displays. The alarms shall remain locked out for an
operator defined time delay following the start-up of the associated equipment

K. If for any reason the operator wishes to terminate the monitoring of a particular digital or
analogue input, then it shall be possible to take the point out of service via an interactive
procedure. If the point is the monitored variable in a control loop, then the control loop shall
be disabled, any sequence dependent on the point shall also be disabled and all associated
BMS outputs shall go to the BMS manual control mode.

L. An interactive procedure shall enable the operator to add, delete and modify points monitored
and controlled by the BMS.

M. An interactive procedure shall enable the operator to configure control loops. The operator
shall define Setpoints for control loops or they shall be derived from software logic as detailed
in Part 3 of this Section of the Specifications.
