Sequences of Operation are defined on the Drawings as well as in this Section.

3.1 SEQUENCES OF OPERATION FOR OCCUPANCY SCHEDULING

3.1.1 System Scheduler Requirements

The System Scheduler functionality must reside in either a piece of DDC Hardware dedicated to this functionality or in the DDC Hardware controlling the system AHU. A single piece of DDC Hardware dedicated to scheduling (performing no other control functionality) may contain multiple System Schedulers. Provide a unique System Scheduler for: each AHU including it's associated Terminal Units, and each stand-alone Terminal Unit (those not dependent upon AHU service). Each System Scheduler must provide the following functionality:

3.1.1.1 Scheduled Occupancy Input

Accept network variable of type SNVT_occupancy. Support the following possible values: OC_STANDBY, OC_OCCUPIED and OC_UNOCCUPIED.

3.1.1.2 Occupancy Override Input

Accept network variable of type SNVT_occupancy. Support the following possible values: OC_STANDBY, OC_OCCUPIED, OC_UNOCCUPIED, and OC_NUL.

3.1.1.3 Space Occupancy Inputs

For systems with multiple occupancy sensors, accept multiple inputs of network variable type SNVT_Occupancy. Support the following possible values: OC_OCCUPIED, OC_UNOCCUPIED, and OC_NUL. For systems with a

SECTION 23 09 93 Page 1 single occupancy sensor, accept a network variable input of type SNVT_Occupancy or a hardware binary input (BI) indicating the space occupancy status as Occupied or Unoccupied.

3.1.1.4 Air Handler Occupancy Output

For a System Scheduler for a system containing an air handler, output one or more SNVTs indicating the desired occupancy status as one of the following possible values: Warm-Up-Cool-Down (when required by the AHU Sequence of Operation), Occupied and Unoccupied.

3.1.1.5 Terminal Unit Occupancy Output

For a System Scheduler for a stand-alone terminal unit or a group of terminal units served by a single air handler, output one or more SNVTs indicating the desired occupancy status as one of the following possible values: Occupied and Unoccupied.

3.1.1.6 Default Schedule

Incorporate a 24-hour 7-day default schedule as shown on the drawings which may be activated and deactivated by the System Scheduler Logic.

3.1.1.7 Communication Determination

Determine the time elapsed between receipts of the scheduled occupancy input SNVT, and use this elapsed time to activate and deactivate the Default Schedule as specified. (This provides the capability for the system scheduler to use its Default Schedule if it loses communication with the UMCS).

3.1.2 System Scheduler Output Determination

For controlling an Air Handler, interpret a SNVT input of OC_STANDBY as Warm-Up-Cool-Down if the sequence of operation supports that mode, otherwise interpret OC_STANDBY as Occupied. For Terminal Units, interpret OC_STANDBY as Occupied.

3.1.2.1 Air Handler Occupancy Output

If more than 95 minutes have passed since the last receipt of the Scheduled Occupancy input, determine the Air Handler Occupancy Output by the default schedule and the Space Occupancy Inputs. Otherwise, determine the output as follows:

a. If the Override Occupancy Input is not OC_NUL, determine the Air Handler Occupancy Output from the Override Occupancy Input.

b. Otherwise, if at least the required number (as shown on the Occupancy Schedule Drawing) of Space Occupancy Inputs are OC_OCCUPIED or the hardware BI is Occupied the Air Handler Occupancy Output must be

OC_OCCUPIED.

c. Otherwise, determine the Air Handler Occupancy Output from the Scheduled Occupancy Input SNVT.

3.1.2.2 Terminal Unit Occupancy Output

If more than 95 minutes have passed since the last receipt of the

SECTION 23 09 93 Page 2

Scheduled Occupancy input, determine the Terminal Unit Occupancy Output by the default schedule. Otherwise, determine the output as follows:

a. If the Override Occupancy Input is not OC_NUL, determine the Terminal Unit Occupancy Output from the Override Occupancy Input SNVT:

b. Otherwise, determine the Terminal Unit Occupancy Output from the Scheduled Occupancy SNVT.

3.1.3 Air Handler System Scheduling

a. Bind the AHU Occupancy Output SNVT from the System Scheduler to the DDC Hardware that executes the Occupancy Mode Determination part of the Air Handler Sequence of Operation

b. For Air Handlers using occupancy sensors, bind the output SNVT (of type SNVT_Occupancy) of each occupancy sensor to a Space Occupancy Input of the System Scheduler.

c. Bind the Terminal Unit Occupancy Output SNVT from the System Scheduler to each AHU-Dependent Terminal Unit.

d. AHU-Dependent Terminal Units with occupancy sensors must have the Effective Occupancy SNVT (of type SNVT_Occupancy) of each Terminal Unit bound to a Space Occupancy Input of the System Scheduler.

3.1.4 Stand-Alone Terminal Unit Scheduling

Bind the Terminal Unit Occupancy Output from the System Scheduler to the DDC Hardware that executes the Occupancy Mode Determination part of the Terminal Unit Sequence of Operation.
