Configure alarm generation as indicated on the Points Schedule and as specified using Intrinsic Alarming in accordance with ASHRAE 135 or Algorithmic Alarming in accordance with ASHRAE 135. Alarm generation must meet the following requirements:
a. Send alarm events as Alarms (not Events).
b. Use the ConfirmedNotification Service for alarm events.
c. For alarm generation, support two priority levels for alarms: critical and non-critical. Configure the Priority of Notification Class Objects to use Priority 112 for critical and 224 for non-critical alarms.
d. Number of Notification Class Objects for Alarm Generation:
(1) If the device implements non-critical alarms, or if any Object in the device supports Intrinsic Alarms, then provide a single
SECTION 23 09 23.02 Page 14
Notification Class Object specifically for (shared by) all non-critical alarms.
(2) If the device implements critical alarms, provide a single Notification Class Object specifically for (shared by) all critical alarms.
(3) If the device implements both critical and non-critical alarms, provide both Notification Class Objects (one for critical, one for non-critical).
(4) If the device controls equipment other than a single terminal unit, provide both Notification Class Objects (one for critical, one for non-critical) even if no alarm generation is required at time of installation.
e. For all intrinsic alarms configure the Limit_Enable Property to set both HighLimitEnable and LowLimitEnable to TRUE. If the specified alarm conditions are for a single-sided alarm (only High_Limit used or only Low_Limit used) assign a value to the unused limit such that the unused alarm condition will not occur.
f. For all objects supporting intrinsic alarming, even if no alarm generation is required during installation, configure the following Properties as follows:
(1) Notification_Class to point to the non-Critical Notification Class Object in that device.
(2) Limit_Enable to enable both the HighLimitEnable and LowLimitEnable
(3) Notify_Type to Alarm
g. Use of alarm generation types:
(1) Only use algorithmic alarm generation when intrinsic alarm generation is not supported by the device or object, or when the specific alarm conditions cannot be implemented using intrinsic alarm generation.
(2) Only use remote alarm generation when the alarm cannot be generated using intrinsic or local algorithmic alarm generation on the device containing the referenced property. If remote alarm generation is used, use the same DDC Hardware for all remote alarm generation within a single sequence.
3.1.3.3 Support for Future Alarm Generation
For every piece of DDC Hardware, support future alarm generation capabilities by supporting either intrinsic or additional algorithmic alarming. Provide one of the following:
a. Support intrinsic alarming for every Object used by the application in that device.
b. Support additional Event_Enrollment Objects. For DDC hardware controlling a single terminal unit, support at least one additional object. Otherwise, support at least 4 additional Objects. Support additional Event_Enrollment Objects via one of the following:
SECTION 23 09 23.02 Page 15
(1) Provide unused Event_Enrollment Objects on that device.
(2) Support the DM-OCD-B BIBB and the creation of sufficient Event_Enrollment Objects on that device.
(3) Provide one or more devices in the IP network that support the AE-N-E-B BIBB and have unused Event_Enrollment Objects.
(4) Provide one or more devices on the IP network that support the AE-N-E-B BIBB, the DM-OCD-B BIBB, and the creation of sufficient Event_Enrollment Objects.
The total number of Event_Enrollment Objects required by the project is the sum of the individual device requirements, and the distribution of Event_ Enrollment Objects among devices is not further restricted. (Note this allows a single device to contain many Event_Enrollment Objects satisfying the requirements for multiple devices.)
3.1.3.4 Trend Log Configuration
a. Configure trends in Trend Log or Trend Log Multiple Objects as indicated on the Points Schedule and as specified.
b. Configure all trend logs (including any provided to support future trends) to save data on regular intervals using the BUFFER_FULL event to request trend upload from the front end.
c. Configure Trend Log Objects with a minimum Buffer_Size property value of 1,000 and Trend Log Multiple Objects with a minimum Buffer_Size property value of 1,000 per point trended (for example, a Trend Log Multiple Object used to trend 3 points must have a Buffer_Size Property value of at least 3,000).
d. Configure a Notification Class Object in devices doing trending (including devices supporting future trends) to handle the BUFFER_FULL event.
e. When possible, trend each point using an Object in the device containing the point. When it is necessary to trend using a an Object in another device, all trends not on the same Device as the Object being trended must be on a singe device (i.e. all Trend Log and Trend Log Multiple Objects used for remote trending within a sequence must be on the same device).
f. For each trend log, including any trend logs provided to support future trending, configure the following properties as specified:
(1) Logging_Type: Set to Polling
(2) Stop_When_Full: Set to Wrap Around
(3) Buffer_Size: Set to 400 or greater.
(4) Notification_Threshold: Set to 90 percent of full
(5) Notification_Class: Set to the Notification Class Object in that device
SECTION 23 09 23.02 Page 16
(6) Event_Enable: Set to TRUE
(7) Log_Interval: Set to 15 minutes.
g. Future Trending support. Provide support for future trending:
(1) Provide one or more devices on the Building Control Network Backbone IP network which support both the T-VMT-E-B and DM-OCD-B BIBBs for Trend Log Objects. Provide sufficient devices to support the creation of at least one additional Trend Log Object for every terminal unit plus 4 additional Trend Log Objects for every non-terminal unit.
(2) Provide one additional Trend Log Object for every terminal unit plus 4 additional Trend Log Objects for every non-terminal unit in one or more devices on the Building Control Network Backbone IP network that support the T-VMT-E-B BIBB for later use by the site.
(3) A combination of these two methods is permitted provided the total required number of Trend Log Objects is met.
3.1.3.5 Overrides
Provide an override for each point shown on the Points Schedule as requiring an override.
Unless otherwise approved, provide Commandable Objects to support all Overrides in Framework Supervisory Gateway DDC Hardware. With specific approval from the contracting officer, Overrides for points which are not hardware outputs and which are in DDC hardware controlling a single terminal unit may support overrides via an additional Object provided for the override. No other means of implementing Overrides may be used.
a. Where Commandable Objects are used, ensure that WriteProperty service requests with a Priority of 10 or less take precedence over the SEQUENCE VALUE and that WriteProperty service request with a priority of 11 or more have a lower precedence than the SEQUENCE VALUE.
b. For devices implementing overrides via additional Objects, provide Objects which are NOT Written to as part of the normal Sequence of Operations and are Writeable when Out_Of_Service is TRUE and Out_Of_Service is Writeable. Use this point as an Override of the normal value when Out_Of_Service is TRUE and the normal value otherwise. Note these Objects may be modified as part of the sequence via local processes, but must not be modified by local processes when Out_Of_Service is TRUE.
3.1.4 BACnet Gateways
The requirements in this paragraph do not permit the installation of hardware not meeting the other requirements of this section. All control hardware installed under this project must meet the requirements of this specification, including control hardware provided as part of a package unit or as part of equipment specified under another section. Only use gateways to connect to pre-existing control devices.
Provide BACnet Gateways to non-BACnet control hardware as required to connect existing non-BACnet packaged units and in accordance with the following:
SECTION 23 09 23.02 Page 17
a. Each gateway must communicate with and perform protocol translation for non-BACnet control hardware controlling one and only one package unit.
b. Connect one network port on the gateway to the Building Control Backbone IP Network or to a BACnet MS/TP network and the other port to the single piece of controlled equipment.
c. Configure gateways to map writeable data points in the controlled equipment to Writeable Properties of Standard Objects as indicated in the Points Schedule and as specified.
d. Configure gateway to map readable data points in the controlled equipment to Readable Properties of Standard Objects as indicated in the Points Schedule and as specified.
e. Configure gateway to support the DS-COV-B BIBB for all points mapped to BACnet Objects.
f. Do not use non-BACnet control hardware for controlling built-up units or any other equipment that was not furnished with factory-installed controls.
g. Do not use non-BACnet control hardware for system scheduling functions.
h. Non-BACnet network wiring connecting the gateway to the package unit must not exceed 10 feet in length and must connect to exactly two devices: the controlled equipment (packaged unit) and the gateway.
