Multilogic Function
The Multilogic function allows management of up to 32 units equipped with advanced Bluethink controller and
connected in hydraulic parallel with each other.
On the basis of the information recorded by the temperature probes installed on the delivery and return man-
ifolds of the system, with the master unit, a capacity request is generated that is distributed among the units
connected in the Multilogic network according to settable priority and optimization logics.
If communication between the units fails or if the master is off-line, the slave units can continue to work ac
-
cording to the set thermoregulation parameters.
The connected units can be different from each other, in terms of capacity and set-up, provided the following
rules are complied with:
•
if there are both chiller units and heat pumps in the Multilogic network, the Master unit must obligatorily be
one of the HP units
•
if there are both free cooling and non free-cooling units in the Multilogic network, the Master unit must ob
-
ligatorily be one of the free-cooling units.
The Multilogic function that can be requested with the unit can be:
•
FM0:
Multilogic function for Slave unit
•
FM2:
Multilogic function for Master unit for managing up to 2 Slaves
•
FM6:
Multilogic function for Master unit for managing up to 6 Slaves
If you need to connect more than 6 slaves (up to 31), you can ask for a quotation from our sales department.
For the slave units, the accessory requires:
•
programming of the unit as slave of a system of machines in Multilogic network
For the master units, the accessory requires:
•
programming of the unit as master of a system of machines in Multilogic network
•
entering of the parameters necessary for connection with the individual slave units
•
installation in the electrical control panel of a network switch to allow the units to be connected in a LAN
network.
•
the supply of 2 temperature probes to be positioned on the delivery and return manifold of the system (sup
-
plied separately with it, installation and wiring by the customer)
The connection between the master unit and the slave units made with a CAT cable. 5E/UTP (prepared by the
customer) with RJ45 connectors. Maximum cable length 100m.
For further details, please refer to the controller manual.
