Built-in Diagnostics
The FMS-1650L incorporates several useful
diagnostic tools. These include an
About this
FMS
option, an
Override
facility, a real-time
view feature, a
Self-test
function, and an
option to perform a
Factory Restore
of the
FMS-1650L. The
About this FMS
option on
the
Diagnostics
menu provides information
specific to this particular unit, including
the firmware versions and electronic serial
number of the display module, the Neuron ID
associated with the controller module, as well
as its network address.
During the test and balance phase, it is often
convenient to be able to adjust exhaust
damper actuators to a specific position to
force a specific airflow condition. The analog
outputs may be individually overridden by
selecting the
Overrides
option from the
Diagnostics
menu,
Analog Outputs
option,
and then selecting the specific analog output
to be overridden. The user can then, in real-
time, dynamically move the damper actuator
to a specific position using the slider on the
override screen.
While in override mode, the selected analog
output is “disconnected” from its PID control
loop, if configured for
PID
mode. Canceling
override mode effectively resumes
PID
or
direct analog output control.
The FMS-1650L incorporates a convenient
feature that allows the installer or
commissioning technician to view the
real-time conditions of all of the hardware
resources as well as several system
variables. These include the analog inputs,
analog outputs and digital inputs. Selecting
the
Real-Time View
option from the
Diagnostics
menu allows the user to view
the real-time conditions of any of the listed
resources. For example, selecting the
Analog
Inputs
option from the
Real-Time View
menu
invokes the real-time view configuration
screen. To skip to the next set of resources to
view, click the
Next
button. To cancel the real-
time view display at any time, click the
Exit
button to return to the
Real-Time View
menu.
Figure 7. Built-in diagnostics may be
accessed at this menu to assist with
troubleshooting and initial setup of this
controller.
By selecting the
Run Self-Test
option from
the
Diagnostics
menu, the unit performs a
quick self-test of the alarm status screens and
audible alert by cycling through the normal
(green), warning (yellow) and alarm (red)
screens while sounding the alarm buzzer.
Should it become necessary to reset all of
the modifiable configuration parameters
of the FMS-1650L to their original default
settings, the
Factory Restore
option on
the
Diagnostics
menu may be selected.
Selecting this option invokes a warning
message informing the user that all existing
configuration settings will be erased and
replaced with the factory-configured default
settings (see Page 34). The user is then
prompted for a password before proceeding
to completely reset all configuration settings
to their factory default values.
