Configuration and maintenance tools
Configuration and retrieval of device parameters can be accomplished with the
following tools:
Using the PC software ACS941 [6] or ACS931 [5] together with the interface
converter AST11 [6] via the configuration and maintenance interface of the VAV
compact controller or
Using the handheld tool AST10 [5].
5.3.1
PC software ACS941 and ACS931
The PC software ACS941 is designed for service and maintenance staff and is
used for setting and displaying the parameter values on a PC. Instructions for use
of this software can be found in datasheet N5854 ([8]). The software is available
free of charge at www.siemens.com/openair.
The PC software ACS941 allows to set or to display the parameters as listed in
section
. The software supports trend functions and allows comparing the values
set by the OEM with the values currently stored in the device. Thus, manipulations
by parties other than the OEM can be detected.
Next to the PC software ACS941, an OEM version ACS931 ([7]) with extended
functionality is available as well. ACS931 allows setting the parameter V
n
.
5.3.2 Handheld tool AST10
Using the handheld tool AST10, a limited set of parameters (V
min
, V
max
, DIR) can be
set or retrieved. Instructions for use of the handheld tool AST10 can be found in
data sheet N5851 and in the manual B5851 ([5]). For VAV compact controllers
Series E, some limitations apply: Adaptive Positioning or setting the elevation is not
supported by the AST10.
The device is designed for portable use on-site. Power supply and establishing the
communication between AST10 and a VAV compact controller are accomplished
with a 3-core connection cable.
