1.1.2. Technical Overview

BACnet (Building Automation and Control Net-

work) is an open data communications proto-

col, American National Standard (ANSI/ASH-

RAE 135-1995). BACnet provides a means by

which computer-based control equipment

from different manufacturers can work to-

gether. BACnet is designed to handle many

types of building controls, including HVAC,

lighting, security, fire, access control, mainte-

nance and waste management. BACnet per-

mits flexibility for expansion and different

equipment combinations.

Conformance Classes, Function Groups and

the PICS: Evaluating the capabilities of a BAC-

net device is potentially a formidable task,

given the great choice of Objects, Properties

and Services, which can be implemented, as

well as the fact that it is not necessary for ev-

ery BACnet device to have a full BACnet im-

plementation in order to carry out its task.

ASHRAE's BACnet Committee recognized this

problem and responded with aids to evalua-

tion in the form of "Conformance Classes,"

"Function Groups" and the "Protocol Imple-

mentation Conformance Statement" (PICS).

The BACnet protocol defines six levels of Con-

formance Classes, each of which specifies the

minimum subset of Services implemented on

the device. The lowest level, Conformance

Class 1, requires only that the BACnet device

contain a Device Object and that it be able to

execute (respond to) a ReadProperty Service

request. Each successive Conformance Class

level adds Service Requests that must be ex-

ecutable by the device, as well as the Service

Requests it must be able to initiate. Conform-

ance Class 6 requires 21 types of Service Re-

quests (of the 32 overall) to be implemented,

of which 20 must be initi able and 17 execut-

able. Conformance Class thus provides a

measure of the device's ability to communi-

cate.

Function Groups specify a combination of Ob-

jects and Services necessary to carry out cer-

tain building automation functions. They are

specified independently of Conformance

Class, though the implementation of some of

the Function Groups automatically confers

some Conformance Class higher than 1.

2.1.2. Safety Precautions

The voltage of the frequency converter is dangerous whenever connected to mains.

Incorrect installation of the motor, frequency converter or fieldbus may cause dam-

age to the equipment, serious personal injury or death. Consequently, the instruc-

tions in this manual, as well as national and local rules and safety regulations, must

be complied with.

Safety Regulations

1. The mains supply to the frequency converter must be disconnected whenever repair work

is to be carried out. Check that the mains supply has been disconnected and that the

necessary time has elapsed before removing motor and mains supply plugs.

2. The [OFF] button on the control panel of the frequency converter does not disconnect

the mains supply and consequently it must not be used as a safety switch.

3. The equipment must be properly earthed, the user must be protected against supply

voltage and the motor must be protected against overload in accordance with applicable

national and local regulations.

4. The earth leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA.

5. Protection against motor overload is not included in the factory setting. If this function

is desired, set par.

1-90 Motor Thermal Protection

to data value ETR trip 1 [4] or data

value ETR warning 1 [3].

6. Do not remove the plugs for the motor and mains supply while the frequency converter

is connected to mains. Check that the mains supply has been disconnected and that the

necessary time has elapsed before removing motor and mains plugs.

7. Please note that the frequency converter has more voltage sources than L1, L2 and L3,

when load sharing (linking of DC intermediate circuit) or external 24 V DC are installed.

Check that all voltage sources have been disconnected and that the necessary time has

elapsed before commencing repair work.

Warning against unintended start

1. The motor can be brought to a stop by means of digital commands, bus commands,

references or a local stop, while the frequency converter is connected to mains. If per-

sonal safety considerations (e.g. risk of personal injury caused by contact with moving

machine parts following an unintentional start) make it necessary to ensure that no un-

intended start occurs, these stop functions are not sufficient. In such cases the mains

supply must be disconnected or the

Safe Stop

function must be activated.

2. The motor may start while setting the parameters. If this means that personal safety

may be compromised (e.g. personal injury caused by contact with moving machine

parts), motor starting must be prevented, for instance by use of the

Safe Stop

function

or secure disconnection of the motor connection.

3. A motor that has been stopped with the mains supply connected, may start if faults occur

in the electronics of the frequency converter, through temporary overload or if a fault in

the power supply grid or motor connection is remedied. If unintended start must be

prevented for personal safety reasons (e.g. risk of injury caused by contact with moving

machine parts), the normal stop functions of the frequency converter are not sufficient.

In such cases the mains supply must be disconnected or the

Safe Stop

function must be

activated.

NB!

When using the

Safe Stop

function, always follow the instructions in the

Safe Stop

section.

4. Control signals from, or internally within, the frequency converter may in rare cases be

activated in error, be delayed or fail to occur entirely. When used in situations where

safety is critical, e.g. when controlling the electromagnetic brake function of a hoist ap-

plication, these control signals must not be relied on exclusively.

Touching the electrical parts may be fatal - even after the equipment has been dis-

connected from mains.

Also make sure that other voltage inputs have been disconnected, such as external 24 V DC, load

sharing (linkage of DC intermediate circuit), as well as the motor connection for kinetic back up.

Protection Mode

Once a hardware limit on motor current or dc-link voltage is exceeded the drive will enter “Pro-

tection mode”. “Protection mode” means a change of the PWM modulation strategy and a low

switching frequency to minimize losses. This continues 10 sec after the last fault and increases

the reliability and the robustness of the drive while re-establishing full control of the motor.

In hoist applications “Protection mode” is not usable because the drive will usually not be able to

leave this mode again and therefore it will extend the time before activating the brake – which is

not recommendable.

2. Safety

VLT

HVAC Drive BACnet Operating Instruc-

tions

The “Protection mode” can be disabled by setting parameter 14-26 “Trip Delay at Inverter Fault”

to zero which means that the drive will trip immediately if one of the hardware limits is exceeded.

Instructions:

- - Remove the LCD panel from the frequency converter.

- - Remove the frame located beneath and discard.

- - Push the option into place. Two positions are possible, with cable terminal facing either

up or down. The cable up position is often most suitable when several frequency con-

verters are installed side by side in a rack, as this position permits shorter cable lengths.

- - Push the fieldbus option adaptor frame for the frequency converter into place.

- - Remove the Plug for the FC Port and connect the Plug that is connected to the BACnet

Option

- - Replace the LCD panel.

- - Attach cable.

- - Fasten the cable in place using cable holders. The frequency converter top surface has

pre-drilled threaded holes for attaching the cable holders to the unit.

3.1.2. Cabling

Cable lengths and number of nodes

The maximum cable length allowable in one segment is dependent on the transmission speed.

The total cable length includes drop cables if any. A drop cable is the connection from the main

bus cable to each node if a T-connection is used instead of permissible cable length and maximum

number of nodes/Drivess with 1, 2, 3 and 4 bus segments.

3. How to Install

VLT

HVAC Drive BACnet Operating Instruc-

tions

Drop cable connection (i.e. T-connection) beyond the cable lengths indicated is not recommended,

due to the increased risk of reflection occurring. Instead, Danfoss recommends direct connection

of the frequency converter.

Note that a repeater is a node in both of the two segments it connects. The number of frequency

converters is based on a single master system. If there are two or more masters (e.g. PC tools,

Routers), the number of frequency converters must be reduced correspondingly.

Network topology Maximum cable length

Free topology without repeater 500 m

Free topology with one repeater 1000 m

Free topology maximum device-to-device 500 m

Bus topology single terminated 500 m

Bus topology double terminated without repeater 2700 m

Bus topology double terminated with one repeater 5400 m

Bus topology maximum stub length 3 m

The length statements in the tables above are valid for bus cable with the following properties:

- Impedance: 135 to 165 Ohm at a measuring frequency from 3 to 20 MHz

- Resistance: <110 Ohm/km

- Capacitance: <30 pF/m

- Damping: max. 9 dB over the whole wire length

Cross section: max. 0.34 mm

, corresponding to AWG 22

- Cable type: twisted in pairs, 1 x 2, or 2 x 2, or 1 x 4 wires

- Screening: Copper-braided screen or braided screen and foil screen

Use of the same cable type throughout the entire segment is recommended to avoid impedance

mismatch.

3.1.3. Network Termination

Connecting the Bus Line

Connect the BACnet Option Card to the bus

line via terminals 62, 63 and 66. Terminal 62

is Marked Red and Terminal 62 is marked

Green. These two are the RS485 lines. Termi-

nal 66 the signal Ground for the RS485 Trans-

mitter. In large systems it is recommended to

use

Maximum Cable Lengths

Maximum total bus cable length: 4000Feet ~ 1200Meter

3.1.4. Cable Routing

The BACnet communication cable must be

kept away from motor and brake resistor ca-

bles to avoid coupling of high frequency noise

from one cable to the other. Normally a dis-

tance of 200 mm is sufficient, but maintaining

the greatest possible distance between cables

is generally recommended, especially where

cables run in parallel over long distances.

When crossing is unavoidable, the BACnet ca-

ble must cross motor and brake resistor cables

at an angle of 90 degrees.

3.2. System Specifications

3.2.1. EMC Precautions

The following EMC precautions are recom-

mended to achieve interference-free opera-

tion of the BACnet network. Additional EMC

information is available in the

VLT

HVAC

Drive Design Guide, MG.11.Bx.yy

. Please also

consult the BACnet master manual for further

installation guidelines.

NB!

Ensure compliance with relevant national and local regulations, for example in pro-

tective earth connection.

3.2.2. Connection of the Cable Screen

It is recommended to connect the screen to

ground in both end of the Bus Cable. This en-

sures the optimum resistance towards EMC

noise. screen of the BACnet cable must always

be connected to ground at both ends, mean-

ing the screen must be connected to ground

in all stations connected to the BACnet net-

work. It is very important to have a low im-

pedance ground connection of the screen,

also at high frequencies. This can be obtained

by connecting the surface of the screen to

ground, for example by means of a cable

clamp or a conductive cable gland. The FC 100

Series has various clamps and brackets to en-

able a proper ground connection of the BAC-

net cable screen.

3.2.3. Earth Connection

It is important that all stations connected to

the BACnet network are connected to the

same earth potential. The earth connection

must have low HF (high frequency) impe-

dance. This can be achieved by connecting a

large surface area of the cabinet to earth, for

example by mounting the FC 100 series on a

conductive rear plate. Particularly when there

are long distances between the stations in a

BACnet network, it can be necessary to use

additional potential equalizing cables, con-

necting the individual stations to the same

earth potential. The use of Repeaters with

galvanic isolation or Fibre optic can improve

4.3. Example of a simple setup of BACnet

This example shows the necessary steps to set up the FC102 BACnet interface with the following

system requirements:

• • MS/TP running at 38.400 Baud

• • MAC address 20 for the FC102

• • BACnet Device Instance 0 1025

• • Highest number of a Master stack is 35

• • Start/stop of FC from BACnet only

• • Reference from BACnet

• • Read status of FC (Actual speed)

Set the following parameters:

Name Parameter number Value

Protocol 8-30 FC option [9]

Address 8-31 20

FC Port Baud Rate 8-32 38,400 Baud [4]

Coasting Select 8-50 Bus [1]

BACnet device Instance 8-70 1025

MS/TP Max Masters 8-72 35

After the parameters have been set according the table above, the drive has to be unpowered

and repowered before the changes take effect. When the frequency converter is detected by the

BMS, the drive can be controlled by BV:1, which will start the motor if set to [1]. Setting AV:0 will

set the speed reference of the drive. The actual speed can be monitored via AV:1. See also
