General - CMC Panel

The CMC panel is the microprocessor-based control and monitoring system for Centac and X-FLO centrifugal compressors. The CMC handles all pressure control and monitoring functions; as well as, control auxiliary equipment such as the main motor starter, oil heater, and prelube pump. The CMC panel has a custom designed computer board called the Base Control Module (BCM). This board has a microcontroller and memory chips that tell the rest of the panel what to do for the various input pressures, temperatures and vibrations. All hardware for data analysis, number of input and output (I/O) points and system memory are optimally selected for accurately controlling and protecting Centac and X-FLO compressors. Features of the CMC system are:

Ease of use ... only twelve buttons to push on the operator OUI! Multiple function, 240 x 128 pixel graphic LCD display to display data and operating status Unload, Modulate and Auto-Dual operating modes. Advanced surge detection and control. High current limit for main drive electric motor protection. First-out indication and event log to help determine the root cause of a compressor trip. Pinion vibration alarm and trip for each compression stage. Optional port for communicating to the Centac Energy Master (CEM) or other Distributed Control Systems (DCS) via MODBUS protocol. Optional reduced voltage motor starter included in panel for some sizes.
NOTE For the purpose of consistency and clarity, all of the descriptions and examples that follow refer to "air" for the more generic "gas". Any gas compressed by a Centac or XFLO compressor would also apply.
Control Methodology
The CMC utilizes performance and surge control methodologies to meet varying compressed air system needs. The term "performance control" is used for grouping the control modes that affect compressor power consumption through movement of the intake and discharge valves.
Performance Control
The CMC has three standard performance control modes or methods of operation. These modes are Unload, Modulate and Autodual for typical plant air compressors operating in constant pressure applications. For the discussions that follow, Figure 1 depicts a compressed air system and the relationship between the compressor and the plant air system.

Compressor
Figure 1: Compressed Air System
Unload
The compressor is unloaded, when no air is being supplied to the Plant Air System, and all of the air produced by the compressor is being vented to the atmosphere. In this mode, the inlet valve is slightly open to allow enough air to pass through the compressor for internal cooling, prevention of rotor instability and surge avoidance. This air is then discharged through the fully open bypass valve to the atmosphere. Typically, the compressor is set to make a positive pressure across the first compression stage, which produces a discharge pressure something greater than the atmospheric pressure. The inlet valve opening required to create this positive pressure is directly related to the horsepower consumed; therefore, careful consideration should be given to this inlet valve position for minimizing overall power consumption.
Constant Pressure Control - Modulate

Constant pressure control is a frequently required performance control method for Centac air compressors. If left uncontrolled, the compressor's discharge pressure would rise and fall along the natural performance curve as system demand changed. Modulate control satisfies the constant pressure requirement. The performance map in Figure 2 shows Modulate control. Modulate maintains the system discharge pressure at the system pressure set point as entered into the CMC by the user. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

Once loaded, the compressor will operate along the constant pressure line until the user switches to Unload or presses the stop button. Control is accomplished by modulating the inlet valve within the compressor's throttle range. When system demand is less than the minimum throttled capacity, the discharge pressure is maintained by modulating the bypass valve and venting some or all of the air to atmosphere. This valve is opened just prior to reaching the surge line. Whenever the bypass valve is open, the inlet valve maintains its position at the minimum throttled capacity setting. Modulate provides a constant discharge pressure with variable capacity from design to zero. This control method is used when reliable control of the discharge pressure is required. Modulate is the most commonly used control method for Centac and X-FLO compressors.

Energy Saving Control - Autodual

Autodual automatically loads the machine when demand is high and unloads the machine when demand is low. When the compressor is controlling to pressure setpoint and demand is within the inlet valve throttle range, constant pressure is maintained in the same manner as Modulate. When the machine is controlling to the pressure setpoint and system demand is low, the compressor is operated in the bypass valve throttle range. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

Figure 2: Autodual Control

Autodual automatically unloads the machine when the bypass valve is opened beyond the Unload Point for a programmed time period called the Unload Delay Time. The Bypass Valve Unload Point is selected to correspond with the check valve closing since at this point the machine is not supplying the system (Figure 1). The Unload Delay Timer should be set to prevent unloading during short excursions through the Unload Point. The Reload Percent determines the System Pressure at which the machine will automatically load into the system.
How does Constant Pressure Modulation Work?

The goal of constant pressure modulation is to maintain a specified discharge pressure in the compressed air system while the capacity requirements change. Modulate control provides constant pressure from 100 percent of the compressor's capacity to zero capacity. Autodual control provides constant pressure from the 100 percent of the compressor's capacity to the Unload Point. If all plant air systems were identical in capacity usage requirements, the CMC could be preprogrammed to respond to those changes; however, all plant air systems are not alike. The frequency and variability of the capacity changes means that the control logic must be flexible, so the CMC utilizes proportional plus integral control algorithms to determine the magnitude of the signal that is sent to the inlet and bypass valves. These algorithms, or programming logic, allow the CMC control system to be "tuned" to a specific plant air system. Measuring the Discharge Pressure In order to maintain constant pressure, the system discharge air pressure must be measured. A pressure transducer is mounted in the control panel and tubed to the compressor discharge downstream of the check valve as shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4: Performance Control
This transducer sends a 4-20 mA signal to the CMC board. The CMC compares the measured discharge pressure to the system pressure set point entered into the CMC by the user through the Operator User Interface (OUI). Depending upon the difference between these two values the CMC will send a 4-20 mA signal to "Modulate", open or close, the inlet and/or bypass valve to maintain the specified system pressure set point.

Proportional Band Proportional control varies the signal sent to the valves as a linear response to the difference between the actual system pressure and the system pressure set point. Valve responsiveness can be adjusted through the CMC with the proportional band, Pb, set point. This scaling factor, graphically depicted in Figure 5, is the amount of change in the input variable (actual minus set point pressures) to cause a full scale change in the output variable (valve position). In other words, if the pressure in the air system fluctuates frequently, it would be prudent to set Pb to a low value to keep up with those system changes. Otherwise, if the system is very stable, a larger value can be used. Pb is directly related to valve life and indirectly related to valve cycling; so, as Pb decreases, valve life decreases and cycling increases. As stated earlier, the CMC uses a proportional plus integral control algorithm. The result of proportional only control is offset from the controlled variable, discharge pressure. This means that if the set point pressure is 100, the actual pressure may only be 95. The value of this offset depends upon the proportional band value. What is the valve response when the difference between actual and set point pressures is zero? There is no response. Proportional control only functions when a difference or error exists. Design discharge pressure could not be attained in a proportional only control system. Therefore, an integral control algorithm is added to achieve the desired discharge pressure. Integral Time The offset produced by the proportional control algorithm could be eliminated by manually readjusting the system pressure set point. Using the example above, the set point could be reset to 105 to obtain the 100 desired. Manually resetting the set point would be required as the system demand fluctuated. Integral control, also known as reset control, automatically resets the desired system pressure set point. For the CMC, the rate at which the controller resets the system pressure setting is known as Integral Time, It, and is expressed in units of repeats per second.

If precise control of the specified discharge Input Variable (Actual - Set Point Pressures) pressure is required, the It set point should be set for a fast value. It is inversely related to valve life Figure 5: Proportional Band, Pb and directly related to valve cycling, therefore, as It decreases, valve life increases and cycling decreases. For the CMC controlling Centac and X-FLO compressors, It values are typically less than 1.00.

Figure 6 shows the relative valve response over time for two combinations of Pb and It. As shown, when Pb is low and It is fast, valve activity is significant in both magnitude and frequency to obtain the desired set point. The other scenario, Pb is high and It is slow, has relatively little valve activity, and may never reach the set point position.

Motor Current, MinLoad and MaxLoad Motor current, in units of power (normally amps), has two functions in the CMC. The first is over current protection for the main motor, and is referred to as MaxLoad or High Load Limit (HLL). The second function determines the point at which the bypass valve begins to modulate for
Power at Coupling
Up to this point, constant pressure control has been accomplished with an analog input (system pressure) and two analog outputs (inlet valve and bypass valve position). How is motor current, the other analog input, used for constant pressure control? When does the bypass valve modulate as opposed to the inlet valve?

Proportional Band and Closed Integral Time are variables used internally by the control system to determine valve response and direction for a given compressed air system. Each has an optimum value based upon the system's characteristics. Determining these optimum values is a trial and error exercise. These set points should be re-evaluated any time there is a major change in the compressed air system.

controlling pressure. This point is called MinLoad or Throttle Limit (TL). The location of these two points is graphically depicted on the pressure and power versus capacity curves as shown in Figure 7. MaxLoad or High Load Limit (HLL) setpoint, in units of amps, is a parameter entered into the CMC that prevents the main drive motor from overloading. Once this value is reached, the CMC logic limits the inlet valve from opening any further. This action constrains the motor by limiting the amp draw to the maximum allowable service factor amps by using the inlet valve MaxLoad PID loop to maintain the MaxLoad current setpoint. When the motor is sized for cold conditions, there are circumstances when MaxLoad will never be reached. For example, the value of MaxLoad as shown in Figure 7, cannot be attained for the T=hot curve because it is beyond the maximum compressor capability; that is, the inlet valve is fully open. This scenario never limits the inlet Bypass Valve Pressure PID valve.

When ambient conditions produce the T=cold curve, the compressor will not be able to achieve the maximum capacity because it is beyond the MaxLoad value. Since MaxLoad is less than or equal to the motor nameplate FLA times the adjusted service factor, the maximum compressor capacity at T=cold could only be reached if the motor were sized for the T=cold condition.
MinLoad Control Setpoint in units of Capacity - Mass Flow amps is the power value at which the CMC transfers modulation control from the inlet to the bypass valve. The reason for this transfer is to prevent the compressor from entering into a surge condition. The bypass valve vents air to the atmosphere and maintains the pressure setpoint by using the bypass valve pressure PID loop. At the same time, the inlet valve maintains the MinLoad setpoint by using the inlet valve MinLoad PID loop; therefore, once the MinLoad setpoint is reached, the compressor continues to produce a constant amount of air. Part of this air goes to the Plant Air System, and the remainder is blown off. Even though the Plant Air System receives only a portion of the air produced, the amount of power remains constant.
10

The following table presents seven capacity requirements for a plant air system. At each of the capacities, the table shows the compressor output, valve position, discharge pressure and power. Each of these values represents a percentage and is only an example. P2 is the specified discharge pressure and P0 is the barometric pressure.
System Require d Capacity 0 0 100 75 50 25 0 Compressor Operating State Off Unloaded Full Load MinLoad MinLoad MinLoad MinLoad Compress or Output Capacity 0 10 100 75 75 75 75 Open Position Inlet Valve 0 10 100 70 70 70 70 Bypass Valve 100 100 0 0 25 50 100 Discharge Pressure 0 >P0 P2 P2 P2 P2 P2
Power 0 20 100 80 80 80 80
From the table above, once the system required capacity moves below 75 percent, the compressor still produces 75 percent capacity with 80 percent of the power. If the system needs only 25 percent capacity, it will still have to pay for 80 percent of the power. This is why it is important to open the bypass valve at the last possible moment; therefore, setting MinLoad properly is critical for efficient energy management.
Surge Control
Surge is the reversal of flow within a dynamic compressor that takes place when the capacity being handled is reduced to a point where insufficient pressure is being generated to maintain flow. This condition can potentially damage the compressor if it is severe and is allowed to remain in that state for a prolonged period; therefore, control and prevention is required.
Control Methodology
Surge prevention is accomplished by opening the bypass valve prior to reaching the surge point. The point at which the bypass valve opens is MinLoad. By blowing a portion of the air to the atmosphere, the compressed air system gets the air that it demands. The compressor avoids surge because it is still producing a constant air capacity.
Surge Detection
Even though the CMC controls to prevent surge, it can still occur. Insufficient rise to surge, rapid changes in system discharge pressure, and various other reasons exist for a compressor to surge.
Insufficient Rise To Surge

Rise to surge is the percentage of the compressor's surge pressure to discharge pressure (see Figure 8). When an insufficient rise to surge situation exists, small fluctuations in the air system demand and ambient temperature can cause the compressor to surge. From Figure 8, when T=cold, there is sufficient rise to surge. As the ambient temperature increases to T=hot, the amount of rise to surge decreases because the discharge pressure is remaining constant and the natural curve is changing with temperature. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

Typically sufficient rise to surge exists when a ten- percent rise to surge can be achieved for the hottest ambients that are expected for the site. If this design criterion is followed, the control system should be able to prevent surge for variations in air demand and inlet temperature. The same design methodology applies for changes in cooling water temperature for multi-stage compressors.

Changes in System Discharge Pressure

MinLoad corresponds to a specific constant discharge pressure; therefore, if the discharge pressure changes, MinLoad must be reset to properly control surge. As shown in Figure 9, when the discharge pressure is changed from point 1 to 2, a surge can occur at point 2 if MinLoad is not reset. Changes in system discharge pressure also apply, but more subtly, when the compressor begins to age. Dirty inlet filter elements and fouled coolers can change the compressor's natural curve; so MinLoad should be checked periodically to prevent surge from an incorrect setting.

Capacity - Mass Flow
Figure 9: Changes in Discharge Pressure
Rapid System Demand Changes

When the system demand varies rapidly over a wide range of capacity, the controller may not react fast enough to open the bypass valve to prevent surge. The CMC reads discharge pressure, motor amps, and approximately twenty other pressure and temperature inputs; plus controls the inlet and bypass valve position. The time required to do all of this approximately 100 milliseconds. When the controller is too slow to react, it is referred to as "driving through MinLoad". The only prevention for a situation like this is to set MinLoad at a more conservative value. The only negative implication to this is reduced energy savings, because the bypass valve is opened early.
Incorrect Instrumentation Output

If the instrumentation, defined in Figure 4, is improperly calibrated or gives inaccurate readings, the compressor could surge even though the CMC thinks it should not. Areas of 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

concern are insufficient power air, incorrect valve transducer calibration, and repeatability of both inlet and bypass valves. If the valves are being sent signals for specific movements and they do not respond by moving to the new positions, then the CMC has very little chance of correctly controlling surge, or even the discharge pressure. As discussed earlier, the CMC uses motor current as the standard method for determining when to open the bypass valve. The time to begin opening the bypass valve is near MinLoad amps. The equation,
GHP =
I V motor PF 3 746
indicates that horsepower is directly related to current; it is, but it is also related to voltage. This is not normally a concern because voltage is primarily constant. However, there are some locations where extreme voltage variations do exist. In these circumstances, the CMC cannot correctly determine when it reaches MinLoad and a surge can occur. For these applications, an optional watt transducer can be used to avoid this situation.
How is Surge Detected?

Note that it has been shown that even though the CMC has surge prevention logic, a surge can still occur. The CMC has a surge detection system comprised of a surge pressure transducer and motor current transformer (see Figure 10). The CMC senses surge when the rate of change in last stage discharge pressure and the rate of change in motor current are greater than the surge sensitivity setpoint value. When this occurs, the CMC will alarm and unload the compressor.

Surge AbsorberTM
When the controller recognizes that a surge occurred, the compressor will unload. With the Surge AbsorberTM feature enabled, the controller will increment the bypass valve position by a fixed percentage, send the inlet valve to the MinLoad point (if it is not already there) and then let normal system demand reload to the operating pressure. This process will repeat up to three times within a ten-minute period. If the compressor surges four times in ten minutes, the compressor will remain unloaded until an operator presses the reset button. Each detected surge drives a Surge Event to the Event Log. If the compressor unloads do to repeated surges, a Surge Unload Alarm Event is driven to the Event Log. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

Surge Indexing
Since the setting of MinLoad Control Setpoint is sensitive to many variables in a compressed gas system, there is potential for the setting to require adjustment throughout the operation of the compressor. When MinLoad is set incorrectly, one of two things can happen. When MinLoad is set too high, the compressor will consume excessive power at MinLoad. When MinLoad is set too low, the compressor is allowed to go past the surge line and surge occurs. When Surge Indexing is enabled, it corrects the MinLoad situation when MinLoad is Surge Index set too low by automatically Increment adjusting MinLoad to a higher value upon a surge. Discharge The indexed setting, Pressure MinLoad Control Setpoint will remain in effect until MinLoad Control Setpoint MinLoad User Setpoint MinLoad User Setpoint is (reset returns control here) manually changed on the Operator User Interface, or the Reset button is held for Power at MinLoad Control Setpoint #3 more than five seconds. Coupling (currently active) When MinLoad User Amps MinLoad Control Setpoint #1 Setpoint is manually MinLoad Control Setpoint #1 changed, the MinLoad Capacity - Mass Flow Control Setpoint is automatically changed to match the new setting and when reset the MinLoad Control Setpoint is reset to the original MinLoad. Entering a non-zero number into the MinLoad Surge Index Increment variable enables surge Indexing.

Oil System Control

The CMC panel provides control of the prelube pump and lube oil heater in the starting sequence, during normal operation and after compressor stops or trips.
Prelube Pump
The prelube pump is started when the panel power is on and Seal Air is present. The prelube pump stops after the compressor start button is pushed and the programmable timer Start Time has expired. The pump does not come on again until the Stop key is pressed, and will remain on until the panel power is turned off or Seal Air is lost.
Oil Heater
The oil heater is thermostatically controlled. When the oil temperature is below the set point temperature, the oil heater is energized, above the set point temperature it is de-energized. The oil heater control does not have any interaction with the microprocessor board and is designed to operate with the control panel de-energized as long as three-phase power is available.
15
Protection and Monitoring

Each CMC base module has twenty-three analog inputs, sixteen digital inputs, four analog outputs and sixteen digital outputs for control, protection and monitoring. These input functions provide the CMC with information about the compressor. The CMC board uses the output functions to communicate to the user and perform actions like starting the compressor and turning on the prelube pump. All of these inputs and outputs are required to interface physical actions to and from the electronics.
Analog Functions
An analog function is one in which an electrical signal represents a specific pressure, temperature, vibration and current input; or valve position output. As these inputs and outputs fluctuate, the electrical signal to and from the microprocessor board also fluctuates proportionally to the amount of change.
Analog Inputs
Twenty-one grounded and two floating analog inputs are used for protection, monitoring and control. Each input used for protecting the compressor is programmed for alarm and trip indication. Each of these functions is pre-programmed with the function title, engineering units, range, alarm and trip values, so no configuration is required upon receipt by the customer. The CMC uses pressure transmitters to measure pressure, resistance temperature detectors (RTD) and transmitters to measure temperature, eddy current based vibration transmitters to measure shaft vibration and a current transformer to measure the motor current. The CMC logic used for the protective alarm and trip functions is as follows: if the actual value of the input is greater than or equal to the alarm or trip value, indicate the condition. This logic is used for all inputs except, low oil pressure and temperature where the logic is reversed. To prevent nuisance alarms and trips, all standard analog inputs use an alternate alarm and trip value during the stopped, starting, and coasting states. The alternate setpoints cannot be edited through the Operator User Interface.
Analog Outputs
Two of the available four analog output functions are for inlet and bypass valve positioning. These are only output functions. The standard configuration for a CMC has no input information as to the valve location. The CMC calculates the position based upon where the valves are supposed to be and sends those signals to the valves.
Digital Functions
A digital function is one in which the presence of an electrical signal indicates ON or YES, and the lack of that signal represents OFF or NO. This is analogous to a light switch that has only two states, ON or OFF. The term "discrete" is also used instead of digital in many instances. The term that will be used throughout this documentation shall be digital.
Digital Inputs
The sixteen digital inputs provide status of field switches. Emergency Stop and Low Seal Air Pressure trip are standard. Any of these inputs can be configured as an alarm or trip. All inputs operate on 24 VDC power. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
16 Digital Outputs
The sixteen digital outputs are used by the CMC to start the prelube pump, energize the main starter contacts, indicate that an alarm or trip condition exists, indicate that the compressor is unloaded, activate the running unloaded shutdown timer and to sound the horn. Outputs can operate on 120 VAC, 60 Hz, single-phase power or 24 VDC power.
17
Compressor Operating Methodology

In the following description of compressor operation, the term state is used to indicate what the compressor is doing, or mode of operation, at any given time. These operating states exist in a hierarchy. For example, the two highest level states are Stopped and Rotating. All other states exist at a level below these two states.
Compressor Operating States

Motor Driven Packages
+
Stopped
This state implies that the compressor is or NOT rotating. It is important to note that this is an implication only. If the instrumentation is not working properly or the system is setup improperly, the compressor could be rotating.
Compressor
+
Stopped Waiting Not Ready Ready
Waiting
After the panel power is energized, the controller starts the Waiting Timer and does not allow further User operation until after the timer expires. This timer is set at the factory for two minutes (120 seconds) and is not adjustable. This period allows the compressor prelube pump to circulate oil throughout the casing and prevents restarting while the compressor is coasting down during an electrical interruption.
Rotating Starting Unloaded A-D Unloaded Surge Unload Loading MinLoad Loaded Full Load MaxLoad Unloading
Not Ready
When in this state, the compressor is Not Ready To Start. This state is entered when the Waiting Timer has expired and any time Coasting that a compressor trip has been identified or a stop command has been issued. A very common and quite often overlooked reason for the compressor being Not Ready is when the Emergency Stop push button has been engaged. This state can exist indefinitely.
Ready
Similar to the previous state, this state could be redefined as Ready to Start. This state is entered when all compressor permissive functions have been satisfied. This state can exist indefinitely.
Rotating
This mode does not necessarily mean that the compressor is actually rotating. It means that it is rotating or rotation is pending and expected.
Starting
Any time after the compressor is ready and a start command is given, this state is entered. The goal for this period is to get the compressor to rated speed and running unloaded. Starting is allowed for only the Start Timer period and is adjustable. This time period is 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
18

limited to a maximum of one minute, or 60 seconds. The reason for the limit is to prevent the compressor from operating in the critical speed for an extended period. Stage vibration alarm and trip setpoints are increased during this period to get the compressor through the critical speed region. After the compressor has Started, the alarm and trip setpoints are adjusted back to their original values. The same procedure occurs for stage air temperature also. This state exits only after the Starting Timer has expired. THE COMPRESSOR IS ALWAYS STARTED UNLOADED. On exit of Starting, the compressor will return to the mode that it was in the last time it ran. For example, typical operation implies that prior to stopping the compressor, the Unload key is pressed. If this occurred, then the compressor will remain in Unload after starting. If the compressor is was running and tripped, the compressor will automatically return to the Loaded mode on exit of the Starting state. The User may also press the Load or Unload key prior to pressing the Start key to force the compressor to into either post-Starting state.
Unloaded
The compressor is in this state after a start (and Load Selected is not in effect) or when the User issues an unload command. A-D Unloaded and Surge Unload are also considered states. However, these two states are really just reasons for being in the Unloaded state. AD Unloaded means AutoDual Unloaded which occurs when AutoDual is enabled and the system pressure has been high enough for a long enough time to drive an unload command. Surge Unload is similar in that a surge event drives the unload command instead of AutoDual. These states can exist indefinitely.
Loading
When a valid load command is issued, the compressor will enter this state. This state exists until the MinLoad state is satisfied. The duration of this state depends upon PID settings for the inlet valve at the MinLoad state and the demand for air.
MinLoad, Loaded, Full Load and MaxLoad

These states transition among themselves as demand for air changes. MinLoad means that the bypass valve is controlling pressure and the inlet valve is maintaining the MinLoad Control Setpoint. Loaded means that the inlet valve is controlling pressure and the bypass valve is closed. Full Load occurs when the inlet valve has reached the full open or 100% position. MaxLoad means that the inlet valve is maintaining the MaxLoad Setpoint to prevent motor damage. In both the Full Load and MaxLoad states, system pressure will be lower than setpoint pressure.
Unloading
This state occurs when a valid Unload command is issued and will persist until the compressor reaches the Unloaded state.
Coasting
When a trip or any stop command is issued and the compressor is running, the motor will be de-energized and the compressor will begin to coast to a Stopped state. This state will remain as long as the adjustable Coast Timer is in effect. At the end of the timer, the compressor will enter either the Ready or Not Ready state.
19
WARNING
Failure to set the Coast Timer for a period greater than or equal to the actual coasting time can result in compressor damage.

The following diagrams graphically depict the states relative to valve position. This diagrams is provided to assist in the understanding of overall compressor operation.

User Interface
OUI (Operator User Interface)
User interface is defined as the means by which people interact with the compressor control system. The standard configuration of the CMC has two components of the user interface. They are the OUI and the device plate. The key component of "easy to use" is that there are only twelve buttons to press on the OUI and four buttons, lights, and switches on the device plate. The CMC OUI consists of six command buttons (Start, Stop, Load, Unload, Acknowledge and Reset), four navigation keys (Up, Right, Left and Down), an Edit mode selection key (Enter) and a Contrast key. These keys in conjunction with the 240x128-pixel graphics display make up the user interface to the compressor. The bezel that surrounds the OUI ensures that the NEMA 4 rating is maintained for the OUI.

Folder and Page

In the design of this system, it is important to provide much of the information required for operating and troubleshooting the compressor. The tabbed folder with multiple pages metaphor has been used to reduce the complexity of a traversing at least ten pages of information. For the standard design, the maximum number of keys required to get to any of the ten pages is four. The SYSTEM folder provides information about the compressor system, the INFO folder gives various types of information about the unit and the SETTINGS folder is used to perform compressor setup.
Status Bar
The Status Bar provides four distinct types of information (Compressor Operating State, Compressor Status, Compressor Control Location and Page Number). This region is always visible from any folder and page combination. This Field is displayed in large text so that the operator can determine the compressors current operating state at a glance. See Section titled Compressor Operating Methodology for a list of the messages provided. The Compressor Status Field messages are Trip, E-Stop (emergency stop button pressed), RMT-Stop (a remote stop has been pressed), Start Disabled (an optional permissive start condition has not been satisfied), Alarm, Unload Selected (the compressor will stay in Unload after Starting has been completed), and Load Selected (the compressor will go to Minload after Starting has been completed). 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

The Compressor Control Location Field messages are Local, Remote (remote hardwired commands i.e. start, stop, load, unload etc.), Network (MODBUS, DF1 or CEM communication with a UCM) and Remote/Net (both Remote and Network). This indication is provided to indicate to the operator that a remote location is in control of the compressor and the compressor may start, stop, load, unload, etc. without the local operator initiating any commands. These three fields combine to provide the operator with the necessary information to create a cursory determination of the status of the compressor. When a more thorough determination is required, the operator can get additional detail by looking through the other pages in the system. The Page Number indicates the current page for the current folder with the number of pages in the folder. The number of pages is given so that the user always knows where he is in the system.

To reset the MinLoad Control Setpoint to the MinLoad User Setpoint, hold the reset key for at least five seconds. The indication that it has been reset will be in the event log. The event message MinLoad Reset will be displayed. Another indication is when the MinLoad User Setpoint value equals the MinLoad Control Setpoint value. The Surge Absorber Enabled checkbox allows the user to turn off or on the Surge Absorber feature. When disabled, the compressor will Unload on any surge condition. The Surge Sensitivity setting has a range from one (1) to ten (10) where one is not sensitive (a soft surge condition could exist without being identified) and ten is very sensitive (a soft surge condition would be identified). We ship the machine with a default value of nine (9). This setting will pick up most surge conditions.

CAUTION
The MaxLoad (HLL) value should not exceed the value determined in the section titled Setting MaxLoad. Failure to set this properly could result in damage to the motor.
CAUTION
When Surge Indexing is enabled and the compressor surges several times, the compressor will begin bypassing air sooner than when Surge Indexing is disabled. You should periodically reset the MinLoad Control Setpoint to prevent excessive air bypass.
CAUTION
Repeated surging can cause damage to the compressor; therefore, use caution when desensitizing the Surge Sensitivity setting.

Setting MaxLoad
The MaxLoad Setpoint keeps the motor within the allowable current range. To determine the value for MaxLoad, an Adjusted Service Factor (ASF) is multiplied by the motor full load amps (FLA). The (ASF) is found by obtaining the motor service factor from the motor nameplate and selecting the adjustment factor from the table below. The motor full load amps is found on the motor nameplate. Motor Service Factor 1.15 1.25 Example: FLA: Motor service factor: MaxLoad: MaxLoad = FLA X ASF 134 Amps 1.15 140 Adjusted Service Factor 1.05 1.10
Setting MinLoad
MinLoad establishes the minimum flow through the machine when loaded, it is the maximum point of inlet valve throttling. If system demand is below this throttle point, the compressor must bypass air or unload. If flow were allowed to go below MinLoad, the machine would eventually hit the surge line and surge. By stopping inlet valve throttling at MinLoad the machine is kept out of surge. To find the MinLoad setting, the machine is run into the surge line, and the value of load (amps, kilowatts, SCFM) at surge is recorded. The recorded value is then incremented by five percent and set as the value for MinLoad. 1. Before continuing this procedure, verify the following: a) The inlet and bypass control valves have been calibrated. b) The machine is running unloaded. c) The block valve at the inlet to the plant air system (Figure 11) is closed. d) The pressure setpoint is set to the pressure at which the machine is going to operate. 2. Set initial MinLoad estimates. a) In the Settings Folder, select the Edit Data cell for MinLoad. b) Increment or decrement the value to achieve a value of approximately 95% of full load amps. 3. Preset the manual bypass valve position to 100. a) On the OUI select the Settings Folder and enable manual valve control by highlighting the manual check box.
NOTE When Manual is enabled, both control valves can be positioned while stopped, while only the Bypass Valve can be positioned when Loaded.
37
b) Switch to the System Folder Page 1 and press the Enter Key to enable edit mode. c) Use the horizontal navigation keys to select the bypass valve. d) Increment the value to position the valve to 100 percent. 4. Load the compressor by pressing the Load Key. 5. Find the throttled surge point. a) Slowly decrement the bypass valve position until the last stage discharge pressure equals the pressure setpoint. b) Allow the system to stabilize at MinLoad. It the system does not stay at MinLoad, slightly decrement the valve position to force the machine to throttle to MinLoad. c) Decrement (MinLoad) 2%. d) Verify the last stage pressure equals the pressure setpoint and adjust the bypass valve position if necessary. e) Repeat 5.2-4 until the compressor surges. 6. Increase MinLoad by five percent. 7. Exit MinLoad editing by pressing the Enter Key. 8. Unload the machine. 9. Disable manual valve control by unchecking the manual check box.
Setting MinLoad Surge Index Increment

When Surge Indexing is enabled (MinLoad Surge Index Increment is greater than zero), the Index Increment value is the amount added to the MinLoad Control Setpoint upon a surge. The MinLoad Control Setpoint will stop being incremented when and if the value reaches MaxLoad.
Setting Surge Sensitivity

The Surge Sensitivity setting should be set sensitive enough to detect a surge, yet not trigger on spurious noise in the system. To set the surge sensor the machine is forced to surge by running the machine at MinLoad and the MinLoad setpoint is dropped until the machine audibly surges. The process is repeated until the correct setting is found. 1. Before continuing this procedure, verify the following: a) The plant can tolerate a pressure disturbance when the machine surges. b) Surge Indexing (by placing MinLoad Surge Index Increment to zero) is disabled. c) Surge Absorber is disabled. d) The pressure setpoint is set to the pressure at which the machine is going to operate. e) The machine is running unloaded. 2. Set the initial Surge Sensitivity setting to 9. a) In the Settings Folder, select the Edit Data cell for Surge Sensitivity. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
38

b) Increment or decrement the value to achieve a setting of 9. 3. Press the Load Key. 4. Run the compressor at MinLoad at pressure. The machine can be forced to MinLoad and pressure by either: a) Running the plant at a higher pressure than pressure setpoint. b) Decreasing load in the plant. c) Verify the compressor is at pressure by observing the last stage pressure on Page 2 of the Settings Folder. 5. Find the throttled surge point. a) Select the MinLoad cell in the Settings Folder and slowly decrement the value until the machine surges. Typically the machine will make a puffing or popping noise upon surge, this is your indication surge has occurred. 6. Press the Unload Key. 7. Determine if Surge was recorded. a) Inspect the Status Bar. If the message Surge Unload is displayed surge was recorded, if the message is not displayed surge was not recorded. 8. Check the Surge Sensitivity setting. a) If the surge was recorded, the setting may be correct or the Surge Sensor may be too sensitive, skip to the too sensitive step, which follows. b) If the surge was not recorded, the setting is not sensitive enough, skip to the not sensitive enough step which follows. 9. Surge Sensor too sensitive. a) Select the Surge Sensitivity Setting in the Settings Folder. b) Decrease the value for Surge Sensitivity by 0.1. c) Press the Reset Key. d) Skip to step 11. 10. Surge Sensor not sensitive enough. a) Select the Surge Sensitivity Setting in the Settings Folder. b) Increase the value for Surge Sensitivity by 0.1. c) Press the Reset Key. 11. Repeat the procedure until the Surge Sensitivity setting is found which just catches a surge but does not miss a surge. a) Return to step 3. 12. Restore all values but Surge Sensitivity.
Tuning Stability
The CMC controls stability with four Proportion Integral Derivative (PID) control loops. When the machine is running above the MinLoad point and below the MaxLoad point, pressure is 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

regulated with the Inlet Valve Pressure control loop. When the machine is running at the MinLoad point, pressure is regulated with the Bypass Valve Pressure control loop and motor current is regulated with the Inlet Valve MinLoad control loop. When the machine is running at MaxLoad motor current is regulated with the Inlet Valve MaxLoad control loop. For each PID loop, Proportional, Integral and Derivative parameters are used to stabilize the system. For a definition of the parameters and their effect on stability, refer to the section titled How does Constant Pressure Modulation Work. The proportional and integral terms are labeled by their respective loops, Inlet Valve, Bypass Valve, MinLoad, and MaxLoad.
39
Calibrating the Control Valves

The purpose of this procedure is to position the inlet and bypass valves by opening and closing each valve from the CMC analog outputs. The valves should be adjusted to physically correspond with the valve positions displayed on the OUI. 1. Stop the compressor.
40
NOTE Performing this procedure while the compressor is operating may cause serious damage.
2. 3. 4.
On the OUI enable Setpoint changes by entering the password on the Settings Folder. Verify the OUI status bar displays Ready or Not Ready. On the OUI select the Settings Folder and enable manual valve control by highlighting the manual check box. NOTE When Manual is enabled, both control valves can be positioned while stopped, while only the Bypass Valve can be positioned when Loaded.
5. 6. 7.
Switch to the System Folder Page 1 and press the Enter Key to enable edit mode. Use the horizontal navigation keys to select the valve requiring positioning. Use the vertical arrows to increment and decrement the valve position sent to the valve. NOTE For the Inlet and Bypass Valves, the displayed position corresponds to percent open.
8.
Disable manual valve control by blanking the manual check box.
Autodual Control Settings

For a detailed definition of the Autodual control mode refer to the section titled Control Methodology. The procedure for tuning Autodual requires the setting of the following variables:
Unload Point (Bypass Valve % Open)

The Bypass Valve Unload Point is selected to correspond to the check valve closing as shown in Figure 11, since at this point the machine is not supplying the system. This position is found by running the machine at MinLoad and monitoring the System and Discharge pressures. When the System pressure is 5% of setpoint greater than the last stage pressure as shown in the System Folder, the check valve is assumed to be closed.

Example: Given the following conditions the Unload Point would be set at 35. Variable Pressure Setpoint PT1 (system pressure) PT2 (last stage pressure) Bypass Valve Position Assumed check valve position Case 1 100 100 100 13 Open Case 2 100 100 94 35 Closed
41
1. Run the machine at MinLoad by elevating the system pressure no more than 3% or decrease the pressure setpoint no more than 3%. 2. Monitor the difference between the Discharge and System Pressures by using the System Folder Pages 1 and 2. 3. When the Discharge Pressure is approximately 5% of setpoint less than the System Pressure, record the Bypass Valve Position. 4. Enter the recorded Bypass Valve Position as the Unload Point.
Unload Delay Time (seconds)

The Unload Delay Timer should be set to prevent unloading during short excursions through the Unload Point. Typically, when the check valve closes, system demand requires the check valve to open again soon thereafter due to the demand being on the verge of requiring the compressor. If the compressor had unloaded when the check valve first closed, a reload would be immediately required and the machine would go through the automatic unload/load cycle until demand was consistently low enough to keep the check valve closed. For this reason, the timer is used to inhibit Unload until demand has consistently remained low. 1. Run the compressor at MinLoad by either: a) Running the plant at a higher pressure than pressure setpoint. b) Shedding load in the plant. 2. Determine delay time. a) Observe time when bypass valve first hits unload point. b) Observe time when bypass valve remains below unload point, typically less than 300 seconds. c) Enter the time difference as the Delay Time.
Reload Percent
The Reload Percent determines the System Pressure at which the machine will automatically load into the system. This value should be set according to the customers minimum acceptable system pressure.
42
Setting the Start Time

The Start Time is set to the transition time of a built-in reduced voltage starter or the acceleration time of a customer supplied starter. This procedure requires the Inlet Unload Position to have been set. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Initially set the Start Time to 25 Seconds. Caution: Damage to the starter contacts could result if starter transition occurs before the compressor is up to full speed. Stop the compressor. On the OUI record the time and press the start button. Wait for the compressor to stop accelerating and again record the time. Calculate the difference between the two values and enter as the Start Time.
Setting the CT Ratio

Locate the CT and find the rating, which is typically printed, on the side of the CT. Divide the primary by the secondary and enter the value as the CT Ratio. Example: CT is printed with 600:5, the value entered is 120.
Inlet Unload Position

The purpose of this variable is to set the inlet valve position when the machine is running unloaded. For a description of the Unloaded state refer to the section titled Unload. 1. If the inlet valve is a butterfly type, enter an initial value for Inlet Unload Position of 15. If the inlet valve is a inlet guide vane type, enter an initial value for Inlet Unload Position of 5. Start the machine. If during startup the motor trips on overload, is drawing what is considered excessive amperage or sounds labored, stop the machine and decrease the Unload Position by 2. Run the machine in the Unloaded state and monitor the first stage pressure. Adjust the Unload Position to achieve 1 PSIG on the first stage discharge, or until a positive pressure is felt at the first stage trap bypass. If the inlet air temperature is relatively cold, increase the setting 2%, this will accommodate hot day operation.

Setting Set Point Ramp Rate

Setpoint ramp rate determines the rate at which the machine transitions from unloaded to loaded. The setting should be set as high as possible without creating excessive overshoot when the machine enters the system. 1. 2. Verify the machine is unloaded by the Unloaded message in the OUI Status Bar. Determine overshoot. a) Load the machine. b) Monitor the pressure overshoot. 3. If overshoot is excessive. a) Decrease the Setpoint Ramp Rate. b) Repeat step 2. 4. If overshoot is satisfactory and time to load is excessive. a) Increase the Setpoint Ramp Rate. b) Repeat step 2. 5. If overshoot is satisfactory and time to load is satisfactory the Setpoint Ramp Rate is correct.
Alarm and Trip Settings

The values for vibration, temperature, pressure etc. alarm and trip setpoints are located on the electrical schematic. These values determine when the controller will indicate an alarm or trip condition.

Troubleshooting
The following procedures provide direction on troubleshooting the CMC System, control panel, and associated instrumentation. Faults are either Event Logged, which means the fault is displayed in the INFO Folder on the OUI, or Non-Event Logged. The distinction helps to expedite the troubleshooting process. When a control system fault is suspected, the following diagram is used to categorize the fault. The section following the diagram breaks each category down into specific items, which can cause a particular fault.
A CONTROL SYSTEM FAULT IS SUSPECTED
THE FAULT IS LOGGED IN THE EVENT LOG.
THE FAULT IS NOT LOGGED IN THE EVENT LOG
COMPRESSOR RELATED
Event correctly indicates a problem. (Refer to the compressor operating manual)
I/O FAULT
Temperature, pressure, load, valve, etc. readings incorrect. (Refer to the Input/Output (I/O) System)
CONTROL PROBLEMS
Compressor fails to Load, fails to trip, fails to start, surging, etc. (Refer to the CMC Tuning Procedures section)
STABILITY PROBLEMS
Inlet valve, bypass valve, or control variables (mass flow, system pressure, Kw, amps) are unstable. (Refer to the CMC Tuning Procedures Section)
CONTROLLER PROBLEMS

Not Ready
The machine Tripped on Low Oil Pressure, which means the oil pressure, was below the Oil Pressure Trip Value. Figure 12 leads to the assumption that the problem is either compressor or I/O related, because the fault is Event Logged. There are two most likely causes for this event. a) Actual oil pressure is low. i) The prelube pump is found to be running and installation of a calibrated pressure sensor shows the actual oil pressure to be above the Oil Pressure Trip Value. Therefore, the mechanical system is operating correctly. The oil pressure value displayed on Page 2 of the System Folder shows the oil pressure to be below the test sensor reading and erratic. Additionally, all other analog input readings are normal and not erratic. Therefore, the problem can be isolated to the oil pressure, analog input circuit. The Pressure Monitoring System (PMS) troubleshooting table, found in the following section The Pressure Monitoring System identifies the probable cause for an erratic reading as a loose wire/terminal/connector and specifies Troubleshooting Procedure PMS #1 and 2 as the appropriate procedures.
b) The value read by the CMC is incorrect. i)
ii)
Trouble Procedure Execution: Step 1 of PMS #1 requires disconnecting of the pressure transducer (PT) wires at the transmitter. When this step is performed, one of the connections is found to be intermittent. When the poor connection is corrected, the erratic reading on the OUI becomes solid.

Options
This section details the various standard options that are available for the CMC. Some of the options listed are provided standard on some models, and will be indicated as such.
Enclosures
The CMC has three panel enclosures available; NEMA 12 (IP 64) which is standard, and optional NEMA 4 (IP 65) and NEMA 4X (IP 65). The panel is machine mounted. All electrical devices are mounted and wired where practical.
NEMA 12 (IP 64)

NEMA 12 is the standard enclosure for all compressors with CMC panels. NEMA defines this rating as "... intended for indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against dust, falling dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids. They shall meet drip, dust, and rustresistance design tests. They are not intended to provide protection against conditions such as internal condensation. Typically this type of enclosure is applied for most indoor applications.
Cooling Fan
The cooling fan is supplied on all standard CMC enclosures, where a wye-delta motor starter is present, the Control Electrical Package is included, or the ambient temperature exceeds 40C keeps the internal temperature below the maximum operating temperature allowed. This action effectively extends the operating life of the control components. A filter and gasket are added to attain a NEMA 12 rating.
NEMA 4 (IP 65)

This optional enclosure type is applied for most outdoor applications. Indoor applications that are subject to hose washing would also apply to this standard. NEMA defines this rating as "... intended for indoor and outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against windblown dust and rain, splashing water, and hose directed water; and to be undamaged by the formation of ice on the enclosure. They shall meet hose down, external icing, and rust-resistance design tests. They are not intended to provide protection against conditions such as internal condensation or internal icing." The standard panel enclosure is replaced with a new box that meets the above requirements. The User Terminal vinyl overlay and sealing bezel is door mounted and allows direct interface with the environment. NEMA 4 rated lights, switches and buttons are mounted directly through the panel door. A panel space heater and Vortex Tube Cooler are added to accommodate changes in ambient temperatures.
NEMA 4X (IP 65)

Also an optional enclosure type that should be applied in the same type of NEMA 4 applications within corrosive environments. The basic difference between NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X is that the panel enclosure is constructed with stainless steel.

Space Heater
Required for NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X panels to protect the panel from internal condensation. This option should also be used with NEMA 12 for unheated building applications.
73
Vortex Tube Cooler

This panel cooler is required on NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X enclosures to maintain the operating temperature below the maximum. An adjustable thermostat is provided to open and close a solenoid operated valve from the instrument air header in the panel. The cooler works by converting filtered compressed air into a hot air stream and cold air stream. The hot air stream is vented external to the enclosure and the cold air stream is directed into the enclosure.
Type Z Purge
The CMC requires a Type Z Purge when the customer environment is Division 2. A Type Z Purge reduces the classification within an enclosure from Division 2 too non-hazardous. When provided, a NEMA 4 or NEMA 4X enclosure is required. Hand valve selectable quick and slow purges, with flow meters are provided to regulate the amount of gas entering the panel. A differential pressure switch is wired to a light on the front of the panel to indicate if there is a loss of purge gas. A relief valve is installed to prevent over-pressurization and a warning label, text below, is affixed to the front of the panel. WARNING
Enclosure shall not be opened unless the area is known to be non-hazardous or unless all devices within the enclosure have been de-energized. Power shall not be restored after the enclosure has been opened until combustible dusts have been removed and the enclosure re-pressurized.
Fused Control Power Disconnect

As a safety precaution, this option removes power from the panel before the door is opened. By turning the rotary door handle, the panel power is terminated. If the disconnect is to include fuse size provisions for the main motor starter, additional information is required. The disconnect would have to be mounted external to the panel enclosure. The short circuit capacity, maximum ground fault, motor full load amps, motor locked rotor amps and motor voltage must be known to size the disconnect properly. Pricing varies depending upon the size, amp rating of the fuse, which is required for protection. NOTE This option does not make fuse size provisions for the main motor starter.
74
Control Electrical Package

The Control Electrical Package consists of a Control Transformer, Prelube Pump Starter, Oil Heater Contactor(s) and Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor. This option allows the customer to bring a single source of electrical power to the compressor to run all of the compressor package accessories; thereby, making compressor installation easier.
Stage Data Package

For monitoring of interstage pressure and temperatures, the Stage Data Package can be added. As standard, the CMC comes with temperature readout, alarm and trip for the next to last compression stage and compressor discharge pressure indication. When selected, each stage gets temperature and pressure measurements on the downstream side of each stage's cooler. For compressors without built-in aftercoolers, the last stage diffuser temperature is measured. Each temperature has readout, alarm and trip capability while the pressures are readout only.
Alarm Horn
The optional alarm horn sounds any time there is an alarm or trip situation. The horn output will pulse for an alarm and remain constant for a trip. This allows the operator to distinguish between each fault type without viewing the OUI. The horn silence push-button is located on the CMC faceplate to silence any audible devices connected to the CMC board.
Running Unloaded Shutdown Timer

The intent of this option is to save energy by shutting the compressor off during extended periods of unloaded operation. When the running unloaded shutdown timer is enabled with the RUNNING UNLOADED SHUTDOWN TIMER DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch, the auto-dual control mode should be selected, this provides for automatic unloading of the machine during periods of low demand.
Water Solenoid Post Run Timer

This optional panel function is used to shut off water flow to the air and oil coolers after the compressor is stopped. It is accomplished by sending a signal to close the solenoid operated water valve(s).
Panel Mounted Wye-Delta Starter

Main motor starter enclosed in the CMC panel. This feature allows the customer to wire the compressor from a single source; thereby, eliminating most electrical wiring and starter installation expense. These starters are available for compressors with motors up to 350 HP and 575 Volts.
N.O. Contact for Remote Indication of Common Alarm and Trip

A normally open contact for individual remote indication closes whenever an alarm or trip occurs. This allows a customer to have remote indication of compressor alarm, trip or both.
Power Regulating Constant Voltage Transformer

If the electrical power supplied to the CMC varies more than ten percent, this transformer must be added to bring the voltage within the specification requirements. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
75
Automatic Starting
NOTE Most electric motors are only rated for two cold starts or one hot start per hour. It is the operators responsibility not to exceed the electric motors limitation. The control system allows the compressor to be started when the compressor is ready, not the motor.
Remote start and stop through hard wiring to the compressor control panel, communicating through the MODBUS port via RS422/485, Auto-Hot Start and Auto-Cold Start are the four options for automatically starting and stopping with the CMC. With each of these options a REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS DISABLED/ENABLED or REMOTE FUNCTIONS DISABLED/ENABLED, selector switch is provided on the device plate with a REMOTE ENABLED light. Since each option performs basically the same function, only one should be purchased for a single CMC. The specific method selected depends upon the application.
Remote Start and Remote Stop Hardwired

When this option is purchased, two digital inputs are configured on the CMC Base Control Module, one for remote start and one for remote stop.
Remote Start Digital Input

This input is driven by a momentary contact closure of at least 120 milliseconds. For the start to proceed, the panel power must be on, the compressor must be in the Ready state (all utilities must be running and permissive functions satisfied) and the REMOTE FUNCTIONS DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch is in ENABLED mode prior to energizing the input.
Remote Stop Digital Input

This input is driven by a maintained contact closure. The remote stop input is always active; that is, the remote stop can be initiated regardless of the REMOTE FUNCTIONS DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch position.
Communications
Remote starting and stopping can be accomplished through the MODBUS communication port in various ways. See the section on Communications that follows for these options. Again, panel power must be on, all utilities must be running and permissive functions satisfied in order for the start-up to proceed.
Auto-Hot Start
Normally purchased in multiple compressor applications where backup air is required, this automatic starting option allows the compressor to be started when the system air pressure is below a user selected set point pressure. Panel power must be on, all utilities must be running, the AUTO HOT START DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch must be in the ENABLED position and all permissive functions satisfied in order for the start-up to proceed. Solenoid water valve(s) are provided for the intercooler(s) to reduce water consumption when the compressor is not running. A 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
76

post run timer is also included in the Auto Hot Start logic to de-energize the water solenoid valves twenty minutes after a compressor stop or trip to allow the oil to cool.
Auto-Cold Start
This option is very similar to Auto-Hot Start with the exception that the compressor starts with no initial panel power. An additional timer is added to simulate the start button being pressed and another timer is added to bypass the low oil temperature function on start-up. One additional solenoid valve is included for instrument air supply. The CONTROL POWER OFF/ON selector switch label is modified to CONTROL POWER LOCAL/OFF/COLD START. When in the COLD START position, the compressor is OFF and can be started through the Auto-Cold Start function. As a safety precaution, an optional strobe light can be provided to indicate that an automatic start is about to begin.
Remote 4-20 mA Pressure Setpoint

When the REMOTE FUNCTIONS DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch is in the ENABLED position, the CMC will monitor the specified analog input for pressure setpoint. If this analog inputs value minus the Pressure Setpoint (from the display) is greater than or equal to the displays Pressure Setpoint step value (default 0.1 psi), a remote setpoint change will be requested. This request will be initiated, as long as there are no analog input error faults for this channel, and the change made will rounded to the nearest step value (0.1) size. This methodology prevents the control system from chasing an ever-changing analog input value.
Steam and Gas Turbine Driven Compressors

The following describes the differences between the motor and turbine driven compressor logic.
Performance Control Motor Current, MinLoad and MaxLoad

Steam and gas turbines do not have motor current, MinLoad and MaxLoad operate differently form the normal motor driven compressor. MinLoad uses an inlet valve position, instead of amps, to determine when to transition from Inlet Valve Pressure control to Bypass Valve Pressure control. When in MinLoad, the controller uses this valve position as the setpoint for the Inlet Valve MinLoad PID loop. Since the controlled variable and the setpoint variable are identical, the goal of tuning this loop is to get a steady output. The default parameters will satisfy most all applications. The procedure for determining the MinLoad point is the same for both motor and turbine driven units, except inlet valve position is recorded instead of motor amps. CAUTION Improperly tuning MinLoad PID values will result in unpredictable compressor operation. If this situation arises, reset the PID values to the default values.
MaxLoad situations are detected on turbine driven compressors by low speed. The MaxLoad setpoint is a speed below the rated speed and above the low speed alarm. This speed is determined by adding an offset to the low speed alarm. This offset is the speed that the governor can accurately control. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

Surge Control
All surge related issues are identical to motor driven units with the exception of the detection methodology.
77
How Surge is Detected

The CMC senses surge when the rate of change in last stage discharge pressure is greater than the surge sensitivity setpoint value. The difference between this and motor driven units is that the motor driven units uses rate of change in motor amps also.
Compressor Operating Methodology

Comparing the chart to the right for Turbine driven compressor and Motor driven compressor, the only state differences are the addition of the first three states under Rotating. These are Accelerate-1, Accelerate-2 and Slow Rolling.

Turbine Driven Packages
+
Compressor
+
Stopped Waiting Not Ready Ready
Accelerate-1
This state is provided to give the operator five minutes from the time the Start button is pressed to get enough steam to the turbine to get the speed above the Zero Offset Speed. This speed is defaulted to 15 rpm. If this speed is not achieved in this time period, the event message Accelerate-1 Fail will appear and the controller will trip the compressor. As always, the compressor must be Ready before the start button is pressed. The reason for the five-minute limitation is to prevent the compressor from being ready for an indefinite period of time. This prevents the operator from forgetting that the compressor is ready to accelerate. Accelerate-1 could also be explained as accelerating to zero speed offset or waiting for compressor rotation.
Rotating Accelerate-1 Accelerate-2 Slow Rolling Starting Unloaded A-D Unloaded Surge Unload Loading MinLoad Loaded Full Load MaxLoad Unloading Coasting
Accelerate-2
After the transition to Accelerate-1 is complete, this state is initiated when rotation is detected and the turbine has not reached the low trip speed. This state may be bypassed if the turbine accelerates very quickly. Once in this state, a sixty (60) second timer is initiated. If the speed does not get to the minimum slow roll speed within this time period, the event message Accelerate-2 Fail will appear and the controller will trip the package. This state is limited sixty (60) seconds to prevent bearing damage from rolling the compressor at too low a speed. The bearing design requires a minimum speed to form the oil film thickness required for proper bearing 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
78

operation. Accelerate-2 could also be explained as accelerating to minimum slow roll speed.
Slow Rolling
After the transition to Accelerate-2 is complete, this state is entered after the previous sixtysecond timer has elapsed and the speed is less than the low trip speed. The compressor can operate in this Slow Rolling state indefinitely. While in this state, if the speed drops below the minimum slow roll speed, the event message Slow Roll Fail will appear and the controller will trip the compressor. If at any time during Slow Rolling the speed exceeds the maximum slow roll speed, the compressor will transition to Starting. The Starting state for turbine driven compressors is the same as for motor driven compressors.
Quick Start Turbines

Quick Start turbines may skip Accelerate-2 and Slow Rolling or just Slow Rolling because of the acceleration characteristics. The acceleration sequence depends upon the acceleration characteristics for a given turbine.
Operator User Interface (OUI) Status Bar

Motor driven compressors have an optional Compressor Status Field for Start Disabled. This field is standard for turbine driven compressors and it means that the turbine trip and throttle valve limit switch has not been made.

Starting Methodology
1. The panel power is turned on. The compressor is WAITING. 2. The CMC Panel mounted switch for DRIVER SPEED RATED/IDLE (when supplied for an electronic governor) should be put into the IDLE position. This switch is wired to a discrete input (Driver Speed Rated/Idle) in the CMC and is sent on the discrete output (Driver Speed Rated/Idle) to the governor. 3. When the two-minute waiting timer has expired, the compressor is NOT READY.
81
4. Reset the governor to clear any trip signals. This may be accomplished with the digital output (Reset Momentary). If an electronic governor exists, a discrete output signal (Common Trip) is sent from the governor to a discrete input signal on the CMC when the governor needs to trip the compressor. If no electronic governor exists, a jumper must be installed on the CMC board.

5. When NO Trips exist (compressor and turbine), the CMC energizes the turbines trip and throttle valve (TTV) solenoid. This is accomplished through a discrete output (Driver Permissive) from the CMC to the TTV solenoid. 6. At this point, the compressor is NOT READY, Driver Disabled. 7. When the TTV solenoid is energized, the turbine trip valve can be latched. 8. When the turbine trip valve is manually latched, the turbine trip valves limit switch will be energized. This signal is sent to a discrete input (Trip and Throttle Valve Limit Switch) on the CMC. 9. When the limit switch is energized and no stop command is pending, the compressor will be READY. This state may be maintained indefinitely. 10. The Start Key is pressed on the compressor. The digital output (CR1) is energized to actuate the solenoid operated steam valve and the digital output (Start Momentary) is energized. A timer (five minute maximum) is started. At this point, enough steam should be applied to the turbine to get the speed above the zero speed offset. This period is ACCELERATE-1. 11. Once the zero speed offset has been established, a one minute timer is provided to prevent compressor pinion damage from rotating the pinions at too low a speed for an excessive time. The compressor bearings are designed to have a minimum oil film pressure created by a minimum rotating pinion speed. Therefore, we must not stay at
82

too slow a speed for an extended period. This is ACCELERATE-2. The turbine must reach the Minimum Slow Roll Speed (approximately 25% of Full Speed) to continue. 12. Once the turbine gets past the Minimum Slow Roll Speed and is less than the Maximum Slow Roll Speed (approximately 50% of Full Speed), the turbine is in the slow rolling zone and the compressor is SLOW ROLLING. The User may leave the compressor in this mode indefinitely. The CMC monitors the compressor speed (through the speed analog input) in this mode. The Idle/Rated Driver Speed switch is turned to the Rated position. 13. When the turbine speed exceeds Maximum Slow Roll Speed, the Starting Timer begins (60 seconds maximum) and is STARTING. This is the same time for motor driven compressors; therefore, the User must put enough steam to the turbine to get the speed above the low trip speed before the timer expires. At this point, the compressor has started and runs as described elsewhere.

Diesel Driven Compressors

Diesel driven compressors have similar characteristics as the turbine driven compressors. The differences are 1. Idle/Rated Driver Speed discrete input and discrete output are eliminated. 2. Start Momentary, Stop Momentary and Reset Momentary discrete outputs are eliminated. 3. Driver Permissive discrete output is wired to the Trip and Throttle Valve Limit Switch discrete input.
84
Communication
Customers may want to communicate to the CMC control systems for remote compressor control and monitoring. This communication capability provides for flexibility in the customer's compressed air operation through remote start and stop, data gathering for preventative maintenance, and incorporation into plant-wide control system. The major avenue for communicating with the CMC is via MODBUS protocol over an RS422/485 hardware link. This requires hardware for the control panel, and a communications device with the appropriate driver software to perform the desired panel functions. The RS422/485 interface can communicate with any serial device that has an RS422 or RS485 port. The customer or his representative must write system software to suit his individual needs for remote control and monitoring. Since the customer writes this interface, the system can be as flexible as the customer desires.
Centac Energy Master (CEM)

CEM is a pre-written, software package available for compressors with CMC panels. This software features Controlled Surge Reset and Reload, Compressor Rotation, Automatic Timed Logging of Compressor Data, Event Logging of Trip, Alarm, and Surge, Load Sharing and Adaptation to Compressor Loading Schedule. Even with this feature rich set of capabilities, some users may want more or different options. For example, some users might want to display multiple compressors on a single screen, but currently each compressor is on a separate screen (see CEM Instruction Manual for details). A user might want to log specific data rather than all data. The options are endless. Adding each of these features requires reprogramming and testing (custom programming). Currently, these custom modifications are not available.
Direct CMC Communications with RS422/485

For the descriptions that follow, a serial device can be a Personal Computer (PC), Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Distributed Control System (DCS) or any other device that can transmit, receive and interpret an RS422/485 formatted signal over a hardware link. In the descriptions that follow, the PC and PLC serial devices are not specific to manufacturers or operating systems. There are many ways of interfacing to CMC control systems through an RS422/485 port. Most of the following methodologies are currently available; but please be aware, other possible configurations can exist. All RS422/485 interfaces require custom interface software and custom application software. The interface software allows a specific serial device and operating system to transmit, receive and interpret data from a CMC control system. The application software tells the CMC control system what to do; for example, start compressor when ready, stop compressor after midnight and retrieve the current data and save to a disk file. Currently there are hundreds of different serial devices using different operating systems and languages in the industrial equipment world. Therefore, the practicality of having an interface for many systems is limited. Custom interfaces must be written as required by the hardware and operating system used. The capabilities of the hardware and the imagination of the developer only limit the application software. For example, one developer may have two compressors. In this 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

application the developer wants a screen to display the compressor interstage pressure and temperatures for both machines with various other compressor data. A second developer has five compressors. He also wants to display the same data, but this time for all five machines. The only way this is done is through changing the application software (custom modification). The developer may write functions to read and display data, log that data to some magnetic media for storage, change compressor set points, sequence the compressors for efficient operation and network additional devices, such as pumps, dryers, etc., into the system. All of these functions require specially written application software for the intended use.
85
The CMC-MODBUS Interface

Introduction
The CMC can communicate with other devices over a variety of communications standards. Supported standards, or protocols, include RS-232, IRBUS (Ingersoll-Rand Proprietary), and Modicons MODBUS. The built-in ports on the CMCs optional Universal Communication Adapters access communications. The CMC-MODBUS Interface defines the message structure that a CMC uses to exist on a MODBUS network. This interface will allow the MODBUS network to gather information and control the compressor. NOTE Unless specified otherwise, numerical values (such as addresses, codes, or data) are expressed as decimal values in the text of this section. They are expressed as hexadecimal values in the message fields of the examples.
In order to communicate over other types of networks, a network adapter must be used. The information presented in the following sections does not include MODBUS protocol details like framing messages and calculating checksums. This detailed information can be obtained from Snyder Automations MODBUS PROTOCOL Manual, Chapters 1 through 6. This can be obtained through the Internet at www.modicon.com.

Device Address Function Code Data Address Data CRC
Slave
Device Address Function Code Byte Count Data CRC
Serial Modes
MODBUS Controllers can be setup to communicate on MODBUS networks using either of two transmission modes: ASCII or RTU. The CMC supports only the RTU mode. The user must specify the serial port communication parameters (baud rate, parity mode, etc.) during configuration of each CMC. The mode and serial parameters must be the same for all devices on a MODBUS network.
Response
Figure 13: MODBUS Messages
86 MODBUS Messages
A MODBUS network uses a master-slave relationship. The CMC always acts as a slave device. The slave cannot initiate a message, and returns a message (response) only to queries (reads) that are addressed to them individually. For example, a force coil command (write to module) that is broadcast to all MODBUS devices would not get a response. Responses are not returned to broadcast writes from the master.
Device Address
This address is the physical address of the Universal Communication Module (UCM) for the compressor. This address must be unique in the MODBUS network. The valid range for this address is 01-FF (hexadecimal). NOTE: 00 (hexadecimal) is reserved for broadcast. Configuration of the slave address is available through the Ingersoll-Rand Service Tool and will be provided by a certified Ingersoll-Rand Service Representative.
Function Code
The listing below shows the function codes that are supported by the CMC. Additional detail about each function is provided in sections that follow.

Read Coil Status Read Input Status Read Holding Registers Read Input Registers Force Single Coil Preset Single Register Force Multiple Coils Preset Multiple Registers
Data Addresses
Addresses that contain the data type and a four-digit number are referred to as absolute (e.g., address 30232, where 3 is the data type for a input register and 0232 or 232 is the address). Software products at the operator or user level use absolute addresses most frequently. The addresses that do not contain the type and are referenced to zero are referred to as relative (e.g., absolute address 30232 would be relative address 231, remove the data type 3, holding register, and subtract 1 for referencing to zero). All data addresses in MODBUS messages (typically, behind the scenes at the programming communication level) are referenced to zero; that is, the first occurrence of a data item is addressed as item number zero.

Multiple Module Addresses For those systems that require multiple Base Control Modules, the addresses for the first module will be as provided within this document. The addresses for the second module will be provided as an engineering submittal.
Data
For both queries and responses, the data is in sixteen bit (two bytes, one word) chunks. For each two byte word, the left most byte is the most significant. For each byte, the left most bit is the most significant. This portion of the message changes with each function code. See the detail that follows for each function for the specifics of this message component.
Byte Count
The number of bytes contained in the data portion of the message. This is used on both queries (reads) and responses.
Cyclical Redundancy Check (CRC)

This portion of the message is used to prevent incorrect data from being used in the Master or Slave because of communication errors.
Function Details Function 01 - Read Coil Status

This function reads the state of one or more coils (MODBUS 0x references) in the slave (CMC Base Control Module). For the CMC, these coils represent the Discrete (Digital) Outputs, compressor operating state (see the Operator User Interface Status Bar for definition), any compressor Trip condition and any compressor Alarm condition. If the function returns a 1, the discrete output is on. If the function returns a 0, the discrete output is off. Broadcast is not supported. Refer to the table on the next page for MODBUS Absolute Addresses for each coil supported by the CMC-MODBUS Interface.

Example: Reading a Single Coil After reviewing the Electrical Schematic for your compressor, you determine that the digital output for the prelube pump is located on J12-P7,8 (Channel 13). From the table above, the Absolute Address is decimal 00199 (Relative Address is hexadecimal 00C6) for the output in question. Therefore, to read the state of the prelube pump output the following command is issued (the following data are presented in hexadecimal format):
Device Address 01 Function Code 01 Address Hi Lo 00 C6 Number of Coils Hi Lo 00 01 CRC Lo 1D Hi F7
The response from this command is:

Device Address 01 Function Code 01 Byte Count 01 CRC Data 01 Lo 90 Hi 48
The data (01) means that the discrete output is on, or the prelube pump is running.

Example: Reading Multiple Coils To read all sixteen digital (discrete) outputs, the following command is sent:
Device Address 01 Function Code 01 Address Hi Lo 00 BA Number of Coils Hi Lo 00 10 CRC Lo 1C Hi 23
89
where relative address 00-BA is for digital (discrete) output for Channel 1. The response from this command is:
Device Address 01 Function Code 01 Byte Count 02 CRC Data 04-10 Lo BA Hi F0
To determine the state of each output, review the Electrical Schematic for your compressor. For this example, you determine that the digital output for the prelube pump is located on J12-P7,8 (Channel 13) and the digital output for the remote trouble contact is J15-P3,4 (Channel 3). The first hexadecimal data byte 04 (0000 0100 binary), represents the states of the first eight digital (discrete) outputs (8-1). Therefore, for this example 04 means that Channels 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 2 and 1 are off and Channel 3 (compressor is in an alarm or trip condition) is on. For the next eight channels (16-9) the hexadecimal data byte 10 (0001 0000 binary) means that Channels 16, 15, 14, 12, 11, 10 and 9 are off and Channel 13 (prelube pump is running) is on. The following table graphically depicts this example:
Response Byte 1 Address 8 0 C1 7 0 C0 6 0 BF 5 0 BE 4 0 BD 3 1 BC 2 0 BB 1 0 BA
Response Byte 2 Address
16 0 C9
15 0 C8
14 0 C7
13 1 C6
12 0 C5
11 0 C4
10 0 C3
9 0 C2
A bit response of 1 means that the output is on and a response of 0 means that the output is off.
Function 02 - Read Input Status

This function reads the state of one or more discrete inputs (MODBUS 1x references) in the slave (CMC Base Control Module). For the CMC, these inputs represent the Discrete (Digital) Inputs. If the function returns a 1, the input is on. If the function returns a 0, the input is off. Broadcast is not supported. Refer to the table on the next page for MODBUS Absolute Addresses for each discrete input supported by the CMC-MODBUS Interface.

If you decide to write to these Inputs, unexpected results could occur.
Example: Read Single Discrete Input After reviewing the Electrical Schematic for your compressor, you determine that the digital input for emergency stop push button is located on J4-P5 (Channel 4). From the table above, the Absolute Address is decimal 10174 (Relative Address is hexadecimal 00AD) for the input in question. Therefore, to read the state of the emergency stop push button the following command is issued (the following data are presented in hexadecimal format):
Device Address 01 Function Code 02 Address Hi Lo 00 AD Number of Digital Inputs Hi Lo 00 01 CRC Lo 28 Hi 2B

Device Address 01 Function Code 02 Byte Count 01 CRC Data 01 Lo 60 Hi 48
The data (01) means that the input is on, or the emergency stop push button is pressed. Example: Read Multiple Discrete Inputs The method for reading multiple Discrete Inputs is the same as reading multiple coils. See the example for Reading Multiple Coils.

Function 03 - Read Holding Registers
91
Reads the binary content of holding registers (MODBUS 4x references) in the slave (CMC Base Control Module). For the CMC, these holding registers contain the Analog Output values and Analog Alarm and Trip Setpoint values for all CMC inputs and outputs. Broadcast is not supported. The CMC is primarily a 32-bit floating-point microprocessor controller. And, since MODBUS is designed to be a 16-bit system, the CMC supports two methods for determining the value for each holding register (This also applies to Input Registers.) NOTE Since MODBUS is a 16-bit system, the programmer must get two 16-bit numbers and combine them into one 32-bit floating-point number.
The first method uses two 16-bit integers to represent the integer and fraction part of the value. The second method uses one 32-bit IEEE floating point number. (NOTE: For those who would like to only get the 16-bit integer value, this will work well for most inputs; however, the CMC has some inputs, like vibration, that are typically less than one. Since the CMC has programmable analog and discrete inputs and outputs, the programmer must use the electrical schematic supplied with the contract to determine which function name and units of measure are associated with each input and output. Refer to the table below for MODBUS Absolute Addresses for each Holding Register supported by the CMC-MODBUS Interface.

Function 04 - Read Input Registers

Reads the binary content of input registers (MODBUS 3x references) in the slave (CMC Base Control Module). For the CMC, these input registers refer to the Analog Input values. Broadcast is not supported. The CMC is primarily a 32-bit floating-point microprocessor controller. And, since MODBUS is designed to be a 16-bit system, the CMC supports two methods for determining the value for each holding register. (This also applies to Input Registers.) The first method uses two 16-bit integers to represent the integer and fraction part of the value. The second method uses one 32-bit IEEE floating point number. NOTE Since MODBUS is a 16-bit system, the programmer must get two 16-bit numbers and combine them into one 32-bit floating-point number.
For those who would like to only get the 16-bit integer value, this will work well for most inputs; however, the CMC has some inputs, like vibration, that are typically less than one.

Example: Read Single Channel 16-Bit Integer and Fraction After reviewing the Electrical Schematic for your compressor, you determine that the analog input for System Pressure is located on J1-P1 (Channel 3). From the table above, the Absolute Address is decimal 30007 (Relative Address is hexadecimal 0006) for the input in question. Therefore, to read the 16 Bit Integer and 16 Bit Fraction for System Pressure the following command is issued (the following data are presented in hexadecimal format):
Device Address 01 Function Code 04 Address Hi Lo 00 06 Number of Registers Hi Lo 00 02 CRC Lo 91 Hi CA

Data Device Address 01 Function Code 04 Byte Count 04 Reg-1 Hi Lo 00 64 Reg-2 Hi Lo 13 4E CRC Lo 37 Hi 5F
98

Register 1 is the Integer portion of the System Pressure or (0064h, 100 decimal). Register 2 is the Fraction portion of the System Pressure or (134Eh, 4942 decimal). Each fraction has a range between 0 and 9999. So the System Pressure, expressed as a floating point number is 100.4942 psi.
Example: Read Single Channel IEEE 32-Bit Floating Point Number To continue with the example, when you decide to get the System Pressure as an IEEE 32 Bit floating point number you must issue the following command:
Device Address 01 Function Code 04 Address Hi Lo 0B BE Number of Registers Hi Lo 00 02 CRC Lo 13 Hi CB

Data Device Address 01 Function Code 04 Byte Count 04 Reg-1 Hi Lo 42 DC Reg-2 Hi Lo D4 C6 CRC Lo F1 Hi 54
So the System Pressure, expressed as a floating point number is 110.4155731201 psi. IEEE floating point numbers are represented in 32 bits as shown below.

Value = (-1sign) (2(exponent - 127)) ((Mantissa 2-23) + 1) Value = (-10) (2(133- 127)) ((6083782 2-23) + 1) = 110.4155731201 NOTE When Sign = Exponent = Mantissa = 0, Value = 0. This is a special case for the above equation.

Example: Read Multiple Channels The procedure for reading multiple channels is the same as reading a single channel with the exception of requesting more data. NOTE: You must read a contiguous group of registers (channels) for a single command.
Function 05 - Force Single Coil

Forces a single coil (MODBUS 0x references) to either ON or OFF. When broadcast, the function forces the same coil reference in all attached slaves. Refer to the table below for MODBUS Absolute Addresses for each coil supported by the CMC-MODBUS Interface. NOTE This function will override the CMCs current state. The forced state will remain valid until the CMC next solves the coil. The coil will remain forced if it is not programmed in the CMC logic.
100
CAUTION
For all of the following Remote Coils, the compressors REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch must be in the ENABLED position for these commands to execute. When DISABLED, the CMC ignores (there is no exception response) these coils being forced ON or OFF.

Example: Forcing a Coil For all MODBUS devices, a value of FF 00 hex requests the coil to be ON. A value of 00 00 requests it to be OFF. All other values are illegal and will not affect the coil. NOTE: For the CMC, forcing the above listed coils OFF is not meaningful because the default state of each of the above coils is OFF. When using these commands, they should be sent once (momentary) and the CMC will execute the commands. To remotely reset the compressor, the following command is issued:
Device Address 01 Function Code 05 Address Hi Lo 00 DD Forced Data Hi FF Lo 00 Lo 1C CRC Hi 00
The response from this command is identical to the command sent:

Function 06 - Preset Single Register

Presets a value into a single holding register (MODBUS 4x reference). When broadcast, the function presets the same register reference in all attached slaves. Refer to the table for the Holding Register list for the MODBUS Absolute Addresses supported by the CMC-MODBUS Interface.
101
NOTE This function will override the CMCs current state. The preset value will remain valid in the register until the CMC logic next solves the register contents. The register's value will remain if it is not programmed in the controller's logic.
CAUTION
This function can only set a single 16-bit holding register. Since the CMC operates with 32-bit values, you must use Function 16 (10 Hex) - Preset Multiple Registers for setting the 32-bit IEEE register values. Also, you may not set the 16-bit fraction without its 16-bit integer. Therefore, you must use the Preset Multiple Registers function to send this 32-bit pair. See the examples that follow for Function 16.
CAUTION
The position of the REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS DISABLED/ENABLED selector switch is NOT considered when forcing coils or writing registers to the CMC. Reads and Writes are always enabled. Repeatedly writing a value to a register or forcing a coil without regard to the position of the switch can effectively disable a local write. Please use caution when writing registers or forcing coils.
Example: Presetting a Single Register (16-bit) Integer To change the integer value for the User Pressure Setpoint (absolute address 40269, relative address 01-0C) to 100 (00-64 hex) psi, send the following command...

Function 15 (0F Hex) - Force Multiple Coils

(CMC Base Control Modules). Refer to the table for the Coil list for the MODBUS Absolute Addresses supported by the CMC-MODBUS Interface.
NOTE This function will override the CMCs current state. The forced state will remain valid until the CMC next solves the coil. The coil will remain forced if it is not programmed in the controller's logic.
CAUTION
Example: Forcing Multiple Coils To force a reset (absolute address 00222, relative address DD) and start (absolute address 00225, relative address E0) of the compressor the following command is sent...

The number of contiguous coils is four (00225, 00224, 00223 and 00222). The number of data bytes is one because we can set up to eight coils in a single byte. The coil data is nine because we want to set the first bit and fourth bit in the byte (0000-1001, the bytes are numbered right to left). All bits not used are padded with zero. The response from this command is similar to the command sent except that the number of data bytes and the coil data themselves are not echoed:

CAUTION
Example: Presetting Holding Registers for 32-bit Values The difficulty in setting 32-bit values is determining the four data bytes for the number you want to send. The process required is... 1. 2. Determine the sign (positive = 0 or negative = 1). This is the first bit. Divide the decimal value by 2 until the result is less than 2, but greater than 1. Count the number of iterations required. Add 127 to the number of iterations. This result is the exponent. Convert this result to binary. These are the next eight bits. From the result obtained from step 2, subtract 1. Then, multiply this result by 2. If the result is less than 1, then the value of the first mantissa bit is 0. Otherwise, the mantissa bit is 1. If the result is greater than or equal to 1, then subtract 1 from the result and proceed with step 3 until the result is 0 or you have gone through this process 23 times. Combine all 32 bits from the steps above and convert this value to hexadecimal. These 32 bits are the 4 hexadecimal data bytes needed for the command.

NOTE Sending 32 bit values are typically not necessary. Sending the data as a 16 bit integer only or a 16 bit integer and 16 bit fraction will satisfy most requirements. Some systems have 32 bit capability built directly into their products. We have provided this feature for those systems.

Exception Responses
Except for broadcast messages, when a master device sends a query to a slave device it expects a normal response, in all other cases a time out or exception response is returned. The four possible responses to a the master's query are: If the slave device receives the query without a communication error, and can handle the query normally, it returns a normal response. If the slave does not receive the query due to a communication error, no response is returned. The master program will eventually process a time-out condition for the query. If the slave receives the query, but detects a communication error (parity, or CRC), no response is returned. The master program will eventually process a time-out condition for the query. If the slave receives the query without a communication error, but cannot handle it (for example, if the request is to read a nonexistent coil or register), the slave will return an exception response informing the master of the nature of the error.
The exception response message has two fields that differentiate it from a normal response: 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
106 Function Code Field
For a normal response, the UCM echoes the function code of the original query in the function code field of the response. All function codes have their most significant bits set to zero; therefore, the values are always below 80 hexadecimal. When an exception response occurs, the UCM sets the most significant bit of the function code to 1. This makes the function code value in an exception response exactly 80 hexadecimal higher than the value would be for a normal response.
7 1 Most Significant Bit 6 5 4 0 0 0 3 0 Least Significant Bit 2 1 0 0 0 0
With the function code's most significant bit set, the application program can recognize an exception response and can examine the data field for the exception code.
Data Field
For a normal response, the UCM will return information in the data field (depending upon the query message sent). For an exception response, the UCM returns an exception code in the data field. This defines the UCMs condition that caused the exception.
Exception Codes Supported by the CMC Microcontroller

Cod e 01 Name Illegal Function Meaning The function code received in the query is not an allowable action for the slave. This exception code happens when: (1) the function code is other than 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 15 or 16 (2) a message has the incorrect number of bytes for the function specified The data address received in the query is not an allowable address for the slave. This exception code happens when: (1) the address is not programmed into the Base Control Module (BCM) (2) the address is outside of the ranges (a) 00001-00512 for coils (b) 10001-10512 for discrete inputs (c) 30001-31024 for integer and fractional analog inputs (d) 33001-34024 for floating point analog inputs (e) 40001-41024 for integer and fractional input registers (f) 43001-44024 for floating point analog input registers A value contained in the query data field is not an allowable value for the slave. This exception code happens when: (1) the number of coils, discrete inputs, registers or analog inputs is equal to zero (2) request for more than the maximum number of parameters (3) the force single coil command, Function 05, is issued and the value is other than FF00 or 0000 (4) the force multiple coil command, Function 15, is issued and the number of bytes does not equal the number of bits to set (5) the preset single register command, Function 6, and preset multiple registers commands, Function 16, is issued and the starting address is not even, the number of registers specified does not correspond to the number of bytes in the message, the integer part of the number is outside the range 32768 to +32767, the fractional part of the number is outside of the range 0-9999, or the value is not a valid 32 bit IEEE floating point number An unrecoverable error occurred while the slave was attempting to perform the requested action. This exception code happens when: (1) no response from the Base Control Module (BCM) since 800 milliseconds from the time the message was sent BCM not wired properly, BCM hardware problem or BCM Module ID not equal to one (2) when there is an unexpected response from the BCM this is the default exception response

108 CMC Data
The CMC Microcontroller supports several data types. They are coil, integer, fraction and floating point. Coil - 1 bit, 1 means True or Active, 0 means False or Not Active. Integer - 16 bit signed integer, 32768 to +32767. Fraction - 16 bit unsigned integer, 0 9999, represents the decimal (fractional) part of the number (1 represents 0.0001, 10 represents 0.0010, 100 represents 0.0100 and 1000 represents 0.1000). Floating Point - 32 bit IEEE number (requires reading two registers to get full number).
For example if the System Pressure input is located on Channel 3 (address 30007) and the value of the pressure is 100.5 then: Address 30007 contains 100 Address 30008 contains 5000 Address 33007 contains the high 16 bits of the IEEE value for 100.5 Address 33008 contains the low 16 bits of IEEE value for 100.5 Additionally, the type of data in a location determines the commands that can be used to access the data. For the previous example of System Pressure addresses 00007, 03007, 10007, 13007, 40007 and 43023 return errors because coil, input status and holding register commands cannot read input register data.
Scaling and Units of Measure

The MODBUS data are scaled in English engineering units. All pressures are in psi, temperatures in degrees F, vibrations in mils, and current in amps. For example, when the CMC Operator User Interface displays the system pressure as 7.73 kg/cm2, the value for system pressure obtained through MODBUS communications is 110 psi.
Communication Parameters
Configuration of the communication speed (baud rate), parity, number of data bits and number of stop bits is available through the Ingersoll-Rand Service Tool and will be provided by a certified Ingersoll-Rand Service Representative.

The CMC-DF1 Interface

Introduction
Customers may want to communicate to the CMC control systems for remote compressor control and monitoring through their Allen-Bradley data highway plus (DH+) network. Adding Allen-Bradley DF1 protocol to the UCM module allows our customers to incorporate our compressors into their plant-wide Allen-Bradley PLC control system. This communication capability also provides for flexibility in the customer's compressed air operation through remote start, stop, and data gathering for preventative maintenance. The customer or his representative must write system software to suit his individual needs for remote control and monitoring. Since the customer writes this interface, the system can be as flexible as the customer desires. One avenue for communicating with the CMC is via DF1 protocol over a full duplex RS-422 link. This requires an Allen-Bradley interface module 1770-KF2 to link our intelligent RS422A asynchronous device, Universal Communication Module (UCM), to the Allen-Bradley DH+ network. The CMC Microcontroller can communicate with other devices over a variety of communication standards. Supported standards, or protocols, include RS-232, IRBUS (Ingersoll-Rand Proprietary), Modicons MODBUS, and Allen-Bradley DF1. The built-in ports of the CMCs Universal Communication Module access communications. This UCM-DF1 Interface defines the message structure that a CMC Microcontroller uses to exist on a DH+ network. This interface will allow the DH+ network to gather information and control the compressor. The information presented in these sections that follow do not include the Allen-Bradley DF1 protocol details. Detailed information can be obtained from Allen-Bradley Publication 17706.5.117 - October 1996 - DF1 Protocol and Command Set Reference Manual and Data Highway or Data Highway Plus Asynchronous (RS-232-C or RS-422-A) Interface Module (Cat. No. 1770-KF2) Users Manual. A DH+ link implements peer-to-peer communication with a token-passing scheme to rotate mastership among the nodes connected to that link. In order to communicate over AllenBradley DH+ network, an Allen-Bradley 1770-KF2 interface module must be used. The 1770-KF2 always acts as one node on the DH+ network, which translates DH+ messages to DF1 format, and passes these messages on to the UCM on the RS-422A asynchronous end, or vice versa. The following is a picture of 1770-KF2:
110 Full-Duplex Protocol
The UCM-DF1 interface only supports the point-to-point full-duplex DF1 protocol, which is like a two-lane bridge; traffic can travel in both directions at one time. Full-duplex protocol also provides higher performance applications to get the highest possible throughput.
DF1 Full-Duplex Protocol Message Frames

The following table shows the general format of a DF1 full-duplex message frame. The control symbols DLE STX bytes are sender symbols indicating the start of a message frame. The control symbols DLE ETX BCC (CRC) bytes are sender symbols that terminates a message frame. The bytes comprised in the command data field vary from command to command.
DLE STX DST SRC CMD STS TNS Command Data DLE ETX BCC(CRC)
NOTE The standard definitions of the control characters used by DF1 full-duplex protocol are listed below:
Abbreviation STX ETX ENQ ACK DLE NAK
Hexadecimal Value 02 03 05 06 10 0F
DF1 Device Address

Configuration of the DF1 device address is available through the Ingersoll-Rand UCMWizard Tool and will be configured by a certified Ingersoll-Rand Service Representative. CAUTION
The UCM must be configured to have the same node address as 1770-KF2 interface module. Otherwise, the DF1 messages will not be relayed to the IRBUS port of the UCM.
Destination (DST) Byte

This byte indicates the destination node address for the message. For a command message, it will be the address of the 1770-KF2 module. The UCM must have the same address as the 1770-KF2, which can be configured using the Ingersoll-Rand UCM-wizard software.

Source (SRC) Byte
This byte indicates the source node address of the message. If the command is initiated from an Allen-Bradley PLC, the SRC byte will be the address of the processor module.
111
Command (CMD) and Function (FNC) Bytes

The CMD byte defines the command type. The FNC byte defines the specific function under that command type. These bytes together define the activity being performed by the command message at the destination node. The message format depends on the CMD and FNC values. CMD Byte
Bit: 7 0 6 0:Command msg 1:Reply msg 5 0: normal priority(for DH+) 1: high priority(only applies to DH link) 4 0 3 2 1 0 Command code
From the figure above, the CMD byte of a reply message for DH+ network is always 40h ORed with the CMD byte of its original command message.
Status (STS) Byte - Status Error Code

Bit: 7 6 5 4 Remote Error Nibble 3 2 1 0 Local Error Nibble
Bits 7, 6, 5, and 4 are used to report remote errors - errors that occur when the command executor at the destination node tries to execute the command message. Bits 3, 2, 1, and 0 are used to report local errors - errors found by the local source node and code 09h through 0Fh are not used. The UCM-DF1 driver uses mainly the higher nibble to report errors occur in CMC. A special error code with non-zero local error nibble, 3Fh, is used to report errors caused by illegal CMC data table address or count. The maximum number of data table entries allowed to be read or set for CMC is 16 currently. If a read command requests more than 16 data items from CMC, an exception response of 3Fh will be returned. Following is a list of status error code supported by the UCM-DF1 driver:
Transaction (TNS) Bytes

The two TNS bytes contain a unique 16-bit transaction identifier. Generate this number by maintaining a 16-bit counter. Increment the counter each time your command initiator creates a new message, and store the counter value in the two TNS bytes of the new message. You must use only one TNS counter in a multi-tasking environment. If the command initiator is an Allen-Bradley PLC, the PLC will maintain the counter internally. The reply message should have the same TNS value as the original command message. The UCM-DF1 driver copies the original TNS field of the command message into the TNS field of the corresponding reply message.
BCC (Block Check Character) and CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check)

At the end of each DF1 command message, there is a one-byte BCC field, or a two-byte CRC field for error checking. These bytes allow you to verify the accuracy of each message frame transmission. SW-1 of 1770-KF2 module allows you to select BCC or CRC error 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
112

checking for the command messages sent to CMC. The Ingersoll-Rand UCM-wizard software allows you to configure BCC or CRC error checking for the UCM-DF1 driver, which needs to be the same error checking method as 1770-KF2.
BCC (One Byte) The BCC field contains the 2s compliment of the 8-bit sum of all data bytes between DLE STX and DLE ETX BCC control characters. BCC provides a medium level of data security. It cannot detect either the transposition of bytes during transmission nor the insertion or deletion of the value zero within a message frame. Another way to quickly determine a BCC value, add up the hex values of all data bytes between DLE STX and DLE ETX BCC in the message frame. If the total is greater than 100h, drop the most significant digit, and then subtract the result from 100h. This gives you the BCC. CRC (Two Bytes) This provides a higher level of data security than BCC but is more difficult to implement. All the data bytes between DLE STX and DLE ETX CRC plus the ETX byte are used to calculate the CRC value. The following explains how to calculate the CRC value: Before starting the calculation, a 16-bit register used to store the CRC value is cleared to be zero. As a byte is fetched from the data buffer, it is XORed (least-significant bit to the right) with the right eight bits of the CRC register. The result is placed in the right eight bits of the CRC register. Inserting 0s on the left then shifts the 16-bit CRC Register right eight times. Each time a 1 is shifted out on the right, the CRC register is XORed with a 16-bit constant A0-01h. As each additional byte is fetched, it is included in the value in the register the same way. After the ETX byte transmitted is also included in the calculation, the CRC calculation is complete. The 16-bit CRC value is transmitted low byte first then high byte.
Comparing the calculated BCC/CRC bytes with the received BCC/CRC bytes always validates the DF1 messages received by UCM. CAUTION
To transmit the data value of 10 hex, you must use the data symbol DLE DLE (double-stuffing DLEs). However, only one of these DLE bytes is included in the BCC/CRC calculation. However, if your BCC check sum is 10 hex, send it as DLE and not DLE DLE.
The rest of this section explains the meaning of the data bytes between DLE STX and DLE ETX BCC/CRC control characters. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999

Usually, a command message stripping off the control characters has the following format,
DST SRC CMD STS TNS command specific data packet
113
a reply message to a read command has the format below,

SRC DST CMD STS TNS command specific data packet
a reply message to a write command has the following format,

SRC DST CMD STS TNS
The DST and SRC bytes of a reply message are formed by interchanging the DST and SRC bytes of the corresponding command message. The combination of SRC, CMD, and TNS bytes uniquely identifies every message packet. If all fields are the same, the message is considered to be a duplicate. The UCM-DF1 driver does not detect duplicate messages.
Data Addressing
The CMC is primarily a 32-bit floating-point microprocessor controller. We support two methods for determining the analog data value. These methods are two 16-bit integers representing the integer and fraction part of the number and one 32-bit IEEE floating point number. (NOTE: If you use the 16-bit system, you must get two 16-bit numbers and combine them into one 32-bit floating point number.) The UCM-DF1 interface can prepare data as either two 16-bit integers or one 32-bit floating point number with respect to the received DF1 command. The Allen-Bradley PLC floating point format is a subset of IEEE STD 754-1985. Accessing data from the CMC via DF1 interface emulates accessing data from a PLC5 or SLC5/04. In SLC 5/04, each data file can hold up to 256 data elements (element number: 0255) and the file number has to be in the same range (0-255). The UCM-DF1 addressing scheme uses this file/element structure and complies with the SLC5/04s limits on file number and element number. Please see next section for details. A DF1 command initiator is a device on the DH+ network that initiates the query or set commands to the CMC. It can be an Allen-Bradley PLC or other device that can send/receive a PLC5 Typed Read (Write) or SLC Typed Logical Read (Write) command/response.
CMC as PLC5
As to treating CMC as a PLC5, the command initiator can issue a PLC5 Typed Read (Write) command to the CMC. Please see the section on Supported Functions for detailed message format. For a PLC5 Typed Write command, the data can be sent as either two 16-bit integers or one 32-bit floating point. If a PLC5 or SLC5/04 issues the command, the setpoint data type is determined by the local data file type used to store it. The PLC5 Typed Read commands for requesting data in integer or float format is exactly the same messages. The UCM-DF1 driver cannot tell the requested data type from the command bytes received. Therefore, the returned data type has to be pre-configured in 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
114

UCM via the Ingersoll-Rand UCM-wizard tool. Default is the integer type. If a PLC5 or SLC5/04 issues the command, the local data file used to store the gathered data should be the same type. Otherwise, you get erroneous data or an error status code due to data type mismatch.
CMC as SLC5/04
As to treating CMC as a SLC5/04, the command initiator can issue a SLC Typed Logical Read (Write) command to the CMC. Please see the section on Supported Functions for detailed message format. If the command initiator is another SLC5/04, you can do either integer or float data type. However, if the command initiator is a PLC5, only integer type is supported for the time being.
Data File Addressing for PLC5/SLC504

When RSLogix software is used to program message instructions in PLC for sending read/write commands to the CMC, the target data table address is in the form of either Fxx:yyy or Nxx:yyy, where xx is the file number (10-14) and yyy (0-255) is the corresponding CMC data table address. The target file type (F for float, N for integer) should be consistent with the local file type. The UCM-DF1 interface designates file number 10 for discrete usage (read only). Each element represents 16 Boolean data bit-packed together in two bytes. File type can be either N (integer) or B (bit) type. The following table shows the address in file 10 for discrete values.
PLC File Address B10:10 B10:11 B10:12 B10:13 CMC Data Table Address (decimal) 160-175 176-191 192-207 208-223 16 Discretes Packed as Binary Bits in Two Bytes 10 9 8 7 6 5 170 169 168 167 166 165 186 185 184 183 182 181 202 201 200 199 198 197 218 217 216 215 214 213

Bit 10-15 of integer element 10 in data file 10 represents digital input channels 1-6 (CMC data table address 170-175). Bit 0-9 of integer element 11 represent digital input channels 716 (CMC data table address 176-185). Bit 10-15 of integer element 11 represents digital output channels 1-6 (CMC data table address 186-191). Bit 0-9 of integer element 12 represent digital output channels 7-16 (CMC data table address 192-201). Bit 10-15 of integer element 11 represents digital output channels 1-6 (CMC data table address 186191). Bit 10-15 of integer element 12 and bit 0-10 of integer element 13 represent various compressor states (CMC data table address 202-218). Currently, CMC data table has 512 entries. In order to satisfy the (0-255) limit of elements per data file for SLC5/04, the CMC data table is divided into two segments; each has 256 entries. File number 11 is designated to the first 256 entries. File number 12 is for the second 256 entries. If the CMC data table gets expanded later, the subsequent file number will be used. According to the above, N11:170 refers to the 170-th item in the CMC data table, which is the digital input channel 1. Similarly, N12:170 will be the 426-th = (170+256) item in the CMC data table. If an invalid file or element number is used, you will get a 3Fh-status error code. See the status error code section for details. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
115
The number of bytes per element is 2 for integer type and 4 for float type. The assigned message length in elements for local data file should be a multiple of 2 for integer type. If it is an odd number, only the 2-byte integer (whole) part will be transmitted for the last data item. Since the CMC has programmable analog and discrete inputs and outputs, the programmer must use the electrical schematic supplied with the contract to determine which function name and units of measure are associated with each input and output.

The CMC is treated as a PLC5 when this command is issued. This command reads a block of data from CMC starting at a specified data table address. As to the format of floating point number, Allen-Bradley DF1 protocol always put low byte first then high byte, low word first then high word, which is different from the UCM-MODBUS protocol. The byte format for a floating point value, 105.4, is differentiated between the two interfaces as below (Byte 1 to 4 is in the order of transmission):
Protocol UCM-MODBUS UCM-DF1 Floating Point Byte Representation Byte 1 Byte 2 Byte 3 Byte 4 42 D2 CC CD CD CC D2 42
Example: Reading an Analog Input After reviewing the Electrical Schematic for your compressor, you determine that the analog input for system pressure is located on J1-P1 (Channel 3). From the CMC data table above, the address is 03h. The UCM should be configured to represent data type as desired. Following is a table illustrating how the PLC5 system address is mapped to the CMC data table address.

In the response above, the first two bytes (low byte first then high byte) in field B is the integer portion of the system pressure (00-64h, 100 decimal). The second two bytes in field B are the fraction portion of the system pressure (09-5Ch, 2396 decimal). Each fraction has a range between 0 and 9999. So the system pressure, expressed as a floating-point number, is 100.2396 PSIG. The following table contains a list of data types and the ID value of each supported by AllenBradley DF1 protocol:
Data Type ID 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 15 16 Data Type bit bit string byte (or character) string integer Allen-Bradley timer Allen-Bradley counter Allen-Bradley general control structure IEEE floating point array of similar elements address data binary-coded decimal (BCD)
The first byte, 99h, in field A of the above response message is a flag byte, which has the format below:
Bit: 7 1 Data Type ID 6 5 0 0 4 1 3 1 Data Type Size 2 1 0 0 0 1
If the data type ID is greater than 7, set bit 7 of this flag byte to 1 and insert the number of bytes to follow that contains the data type ID value in bits 4, 5, and 6. These additional ID bytes follow directly after the flag byte. In the above response message, the additional one byte is 09h, which means array of similar elements. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
121
If the data type defined uses more than 7 bytes for each data element, enter 1 in bit 3 of the flag byte and enter the number of bytes to follow that contains the number of bytes used for each data element. These additional size bytes follow the flag byte and any ID bytes. The individual bytes in field A and B of the above response message is explained in the following table:
Field Byte (hex) 99 09 05 42 Definition flag byte data type ID byte: array of similar elements number of bytes to follow descriptor byte 4: type ID for integer 2: two bytes per element 4 data bytes

This is a special case for the above equation.
Example: Read Multiple Analog Channels The procedure for reading multiple channels is the same as reading a single channel with the exception of requesting more data. The message length in elements should be set as desired but no more than 16 data at a time, because IRBUS can handle at most 16 data in one query for the time being. NOTE You must read a contiguous group of data (channels) for a single command.

Example: Reading a Discrete Value Reading discrete values from file number 11 or higher is the same as reading analog data. To read a digital output (Channel 3, 188h) as a two-byte integer, the following command is sent:

CAUTION
The CMC is treated as a PLC5 when this command is issued. This command writes data to the CMC starting at the specified data table address. You can write to a setpoint with either an integer or floating point number. Example: Presetting Analog Setpoints for 32-bit Values To write 105.4 PSIG as a floating point number to the user pressure setpoint (CMC data table address, 86h), issue the following command:

The difficulty in setting 32-bit values is determining the four data bytes for the number you want to send. The process required is ... 1. Determine the sign (positive = 0 or negative = 1). This is the first bit. 2. Divide the decimal value by 2 until the result is less than 2, but greater than 1. Count the number of iterations required. Add 127 to the number of iterations. This result is the exponent. Convert this result to binary. These are the next eight bits. 1X36003 Version 2.52 1996-1999 Ingersoll-Rand Company Date of Issue: 18-Oct-1999
125
3. From the result obtained from step 2, subtract 1. Then, multiply this result by 2. If the result is less than 1, then the value of the first mantissa bit is 0. Otherwise, the mantissa bit is 1. If the result is greater than or equal to 1, then subtract 1 from the result and proceed with step 3 until the result is 0 or you have gone through this process 23 times. 4. Combine all 32 bits from the steps above and convert this value to hexadecimal. These 32 bits are the 4 hexadecimal data bytes needed for the command. As an example, we will start with the decimal value of 105.4. 1. Since this is a positive number, the first bit is 0. 2. Determine the exponent bits by ...
Iteration 1 2 3 4 5 6 Decimal 105.40000 52.70000 26.35000 13.17500 6.58750 3.29375 / / / / / / 2 2 2 2 2 2 = = = = = = Result 52.700000 26.350000 13.175000 6.587500 3.293750 1.646875
It took us six iterations to get the result to a number that is less than two and greater than or equal to one. Now, we must add 127 for an exponent of 133. Converting this to binary, the next eight bits are represented as 10000101. 3. Determine the mantissa bits by ...

4. Combining the bits in sign, exponent and then mantissa order ... 0100-0010-1101-0010-1100-1100-1100-1100 This converts to 42-D2-CC-CC in hexadecimal. To conform to DF1 floating point format, the bytes are swapped as CC-CC-D2-42. Example: Presetting a 16-bit Integer and 16-bit Fraction Analog Setpoint To change the integer and fraction value for the user pressure setpoint to 105.4 PSIG, issue the command below. The integer portion of the number 105 (00-69h) and the fraction 0.4 is converted to 4000 (0F-A0h). These four bytes are placed in field B in the order of (69-00-A00F).

When the CMC receives a DF1 command without any communication error and the command is executed successfully, a normal response with status code 00h is returned. If the UCM dose not receive the command due to a communication error, no response is returned and the command initiator will eventually time out. If the UCM dose receive the command, but detects error (invalid BCC/CRC...), control characters DLE NAK is returned to the command initiator, which in turns retransmits the command message and restarts a time out to wait for the response. This can be repeated a few times depending on the limit preset for retransmission. Once the limit is exceeded, the command initiator is informed of the failure and proceeds to the next command. If the time out expired before a response is received, the command initiator sends out DLE ENQ control characters to request a retransmission of the last response. It restarts a time out and wait for the response. There is a limit on the number of inquiries allowed per command message. When this limit is exceeded, the command initiator proceeds to the next command. When UCM receives DLE ENQ or DLE NAK message, it resends the last response to the command initiator. When DLE ACK message is received by the UCM, no response is returned. When the UCM receives a command without any communication error, but cannot handle it, the UCM will return an exception response with the appropriate status code informing the command initiator of the nature of failure. NOTE The table below explains the meanings of different control symbols for DF1 protocol:
Control Symbol DLE ACK DLE NAK DLE ENQ
Definition a message frame has been successfully received a message frame was not received successfully request retransmission of a response from the destination node
Communication Parameters
Configuration of the UCM RS-422 ports communication speed (baud rate), parity, number of data bits, number of stop bits... is available through the Ingersoll-Rand UCM-Wizard Tool and will be configured by a certified Ingersoll-Rand Service Representative. The settings should be the same as the 1770-KF2 interface module.
Network Setup
The network diagram that follows depicts the communication interface between AllenBradley DF1 network and Ingersoll-Rand CMC Microcontroller. The 1770-KF2 always acts as a slave. The slave cannot initiate a command; i.e., the UCM cannot initiate a command over DH+ network. It only returns response messages to queries that are addressed to them individually. Broadcast is not supported over the DF1 network.

CAUTION
The 1770-KF2 module reads the status of these communication option switches only at power up, so you need to change switch settings with 1770-KF2 powered off.
SW-1 (Asynchronous Link Features)

SW-2, SW-3, SW-4 (Node Address)
These three switch assemblies are used to set the network node number of the 1770-KF2 module. Set both switches in SW-2 OFF for DH+ link because the node number should be a 2-digit octal number that identifies the 1770-KF2 as a unique node on DH+. Valid node numbers for 1770-KF2 in DH+ network are 00 to 77 octal. First digit (SW-2) should always be set to zero.

SW-5 (Network Link Communication Rate)

Switch assembly SW-5 lets you select the communication rate for the 1770-KF2 modules network link (DH+). Set both switches ON for a network communication rate of 57,600 bits per second. Be sure to set all modules on the same DH+ network for this communication rate.
SW-6 (Asynchronous Link Communication Rate and Diagnostic Commands)

Switches #1, #2, #3 of SW-6 let you select the communication rate for the 1770-KF2 modules asynchronous port. Meanwhile, switch #4 determines how 1770-KF2 module treats diagnostic commands sent by a remote DH+ node. It is recommended to set at 9600 baud or higher, and execute received diagnostic commands.
SW-6 Setting 4 ON OFF
Execute received diagnostic commands Pass any received diagnostic commands to the attached asynchronous device

System Information
Status Codes
The following table lists the status codes for the Base Control Module (BCM) only. These codes indicate every operating condition, both normal and abnormal, for the system. A code always exists for the system; for example, Status 05h indicates that the system is running properly. These codes, except Status 00h and 05h, are shown on a blank screen in the upper left hand corner of the Operator User Interface (OUI). Since Status 00h and 05h are normal operating conditions, these codes are not displayed. When a code is displayed, contact your local Ingersoll-Rand Service Representative.
Status Code 00h 01h Definition Booting Stay In Boot Comments The BCM is in the boot process. This is a normal process during BCM power up. This state will not be displayed. The BCM is held in boot mode by the hardware configuration. This condition exists only when the boot jumper (hardware device) is plugged into the display (OUI) port. This hardware jumper is only required when doing system level reprogramming of the module. The BCM software is not valid. This condition occurs when the CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) calculated by the module does not equal the CRC value written to the module when programmed. This would typically occur when the programming process is aborted (halted). The module must be reprogrammed. The BCM is currently in the process of being programmed. If this message does not disappear after programming is completed, power cycle the unit. The BCM software has failed to operate properly. Cycling the power on the module will restart the system. Once restarted, the program will operate properly until the same condition reoccurs. Normal operating condition. This state will not be displayed. Operating system error. Cycling the power on the module will restart the system. Once restarted, the program will operate properly until the same condition reoccurs. Operating system error.

CMC User Interface/Bezel Cleaning Instructions
The following procedure is recommended to clean the CMC User Interface vinyl overlay material and/or the User Interface bezel.
147
1. Stop the compressor and depress the maintained Emergency Stop push-button, this will prevent an inadvertent start up or trip of the compressor during the cleaning process. 2. Dampen a soft cloth or paper towel with water and wipe any dust, dirt or liquids from the surface of the User Interface, do not use an abrasive pad or brush to clean the surface of the User Interface vinyl overlay or bezel. 3. If more aggressive measures are required to clean the User Interface and/or bezel surface use a mild non-abrasive household cleaner (such as Formula 409, Fantastik, etc.) sprayed or wiped directly onto the surface to be cleaned. Dampen a soft cloth or paper towel with water and wipe any remaining cleaner from the surfaces. Ingersoll-Rand Company recommends the following for cleaning the OUI and bezel: Cleaners: Water or mild house hold cleaner, no petroleum or acetone based fluids. Cleaning wipes: Soft cotton clothe or paper towels.

Setting UCM Switches

The UCM has two sixteen position selector switches, A0 and A1. Switch A0 is used for setting the IRBUS Address for the UCM. This switch can be in any of the sixteen positions. If there are multiple UCMs on a single Base Control Module, then each address for each UCM must be unique. This applies only to multiple UCMs on a single Base Control Module. Switch A1 is unused at this time and must be set to zero.
UCM Port Activity LEDs

The UCM has three light emitting diodes (LEDs) to indicate the activity of the RS232, RS422/485 and the IRBUS RS485 ports. The following table indicates the different states of these ports.

Terminating Resistor
155
The RS422/485 circuitry built into each UCM supports Alternate-Fail-safe AC Termination. This termination circuitry enhances the UCM's ability to operation in harsher (electrically noisier) environments. Since this circuitry is built into the product, no external terminating resistor is required. For a thorough discussion of the various termination techniques, please refer to "A Comparison of Differential Termination Techniques", National Semiconductor Application Note 903 (AN-903), August 1993. This application note can be obtained from the Internet at "www.national.com".

Throttled Surge The condition created by closing the inlet valve past the surge point to maintain constant pressure. Tight Closure A term used to describe the inlet valve position when the compressor is not running and starting. The inlet valve ideally is closed tightly when stopped to prevent reverse rotation of the compressor if the check valve fails. Also, to reduce the load on the compressor during starting, the inlet valve can be held closed for a short period of time (less than thirty seconds) after the start button is pushed. This is most typically done on compressors at high altitude, most notably snow making applications. Bearing analysis must be done prior to using this option. TL Throttle Limit. Establishes the minimum flow through the machine when loaded, it is the maximum point of inlet valve throttling. If system demand is below this throttle point, the compressor must bypass air to maintain pressure setpoint or unload.

Reload_Percent The reload pressure, in percent of user system pressure set point, at which the machine will load when Autodual is active. Stage(n)_Temp Stage (n) Temperature. This air temperature for stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, is measured at the discharge from the inter or after cooler. This is the value of an analog input. Stage(n)_Temp_HAV Stage (n) Temperature High Alarm Value. This is an air temperature set point for the high alarm value. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Temp_HAV2 Stage (n) Temperature High Alarm Value during running, coasting or stopped.. This is an air temperature set point for the high alarm value of the 2x multiplier. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Temp_HTV Stage (n) Temperature High Trip Value. This is an air temperature set point for the high trip value. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Temp_HTV2 Stage (n) Temperature High Trip Value during running, coasting or stopped.. This is an air temperature set point for the high trip value of the 2x multiplier. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Vib Stage (n) Vibration. This vibration for stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. This is the value of an analog input. Stage(n)_Vib_HAV Stage (n) Vibration High Alarm Value. This is a vibration set point for the high alarm value. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Vib_HAV2 Stage (n) Vibration High Alarm Value during running, coasting or stopped. This is a vibration set point for the high alarm value of the 2x multiplier. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Vib_HTV Stage (n) Vibration High Trip Value. This is a vibration set point for the high trip value. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Stage(n)_Vib_HTV2 Stage (n) Vibration High Trip Value during running, coasting or stopped.. This is a vibration set point for the high trip value of the 2x multiplier. This applies to stage n, where n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Start_Timer The time interval, in seconds, between pressing the Start button and the compressor is running at full speed. The timer is used to transition wye delta starters, inhibit loading, de-energize the prelube pump, and disable the alternate alarm and trip setpoints.

Surge_PTX Surge Pressure Transducer. Surge_PTX is mounted between the last compression stage and the check valve. TL Throttle Limit. Establishes the minimum flow through the machine when loaded, it is the maximum point of inlet valve throttling. If system demand is below this throttle point, the compressor must bypass air to maintain pressure setpoint or unload. TL_Tol Throttle Limit Tolerance. This setting determines the load value tolerance at which inlet valve control transitions from pressure control to MinLoad control. Unload_Point The bypass valve position, in percent open, at which the Autodual unload timer will start timing to unload the compressor when Autodual is active. User_PSP User Pressure Set Point. The local control pressure set point. Wait_Timer The delay interval, in seconds, between power up and the ready state.
