The application control strategy operates in one of the following basic modes, as determined by the
Algorithm Mode variable (AV13).
Algorithm Mode
Description
AV13
Unoccupied (Night)
Uses Night Setpoints
0
Occupied (Day)
Uses Day Setpoints
1
Minimum
VAV Only: Forces the box to its minimum position
10
Maximum
VAV Only: Forces the box to its maximum position
11
Closed
VAV Only: Forces the box to its fully closed position
12
Open
VAV Only: Forces the box to its fully open position
13
Zero Calibration
VAV Only: Forces calibration of the bias so the airflow reads
zero at current conditions. This assumes that the Air Handler has
been shut down and that there is no air flow at the box.
14
Heating Lockout
All heating control and associated icons are completely disabled
(as though no heating stages even exist)
20
Cooling Lockout
All cooling control and associated icons are completely disabled
(as though no cooling stages even exist)
21
Heating/Cooling Lockout
Both heating and cooling control and their icons are disabled

Unless the fourth digit of the Display Code (AV15) is set to 1 or 5, or Fan Control is configured as
Manual, the top two buttons on the BACstat – O
FF
(
O
) and O
N
(
I
) – will switch between Night and Day
modes. Changing to the other modes for VAV is keypad accessible in Air Balancer mode within the
Service Tool menus. The Alg. Mode (AV13) is also fully accessible from another device over the
network (via GCL+ or ORCAview OWS or 3
rd
Lockout Modes
Party devices), to command it to any mode as required
(including the lockouts).
Heating and cooling lockout modes are operational for all Control Applications.
Basically, once a BACstat has been configured for various stages of heating and cooling, either the
heating and/or cooling may be disabled on the fly as necessary for various control strategies simply by
commanding the Alg. Mode (AV13). In all other regards, control continues to function the same as it
would when in
Occupied
mode.
Communications Reset Enable
The Alg mode (AV13) variable also has a property represented by a
Comm Reset Enable
checkbox in
the object dialog. This can be enabled or disabled, depending on installation requirements.
