CORAYVAC

Modulat-

ing Heating Control per building (called the "central
controller") comes standard with a touchscreen. The
central controller communicates with all satellite con-
trollers, and COMPLETE™ unitary controllers when
applicable. More than one "central" controller can be
used, if desired. If multiple CORAYVAC

Modulating

Heating Control controllers are being used, the addi-
tional controllers communicate to controller #1
through communication wiring arranged in series
from one controller to the next.

. An MS/TP network can be in a daisy-chain or

hybrid configuration if repeaters are used as
described in MS/TP network requirements. Each net-
work segment must be in a daisy-chain configuration.

5.1 WebCTRL

The WebCTRL

building automation system offers an

intuitive user interface and powerful tools to help
facility managers keep occupants comfortable, man-
age energy conservation, identify key operational
problems and analyze the results. The optional

WebCTRL

package allows direct communication via

on-site or remote off-site control to the central con-
troller. WebCTRL

is an automation system interface

through (HTTP) to communicate over the internet or
Ethernet. WebCTRL

provides complete access to

all touchscreen features that include but are not lim-
ited to:

• Setting and changing schedules
• Adjusting setpoints and other control properties
• Graphically trending building conditions
• Viewing and acknowledging alarms
• Custom alarm management capabilities to allow

notifications via e-mail, text messaging, etc. for
situations such as when zone temperatures drop
below setpoints or exceed user-defined require-
ments.

• Graphical representation of system(s) status.
• A WebCTRL

license is issued and software

installed on one computer on network. DIP switch
on the controller is changed to allow new IP
address configuration.

Contact Roberts-Gordon LLC or your independent
ROBERTS GORDON

distributor for more details.

A WebCTRL

system supports:

• Unlimited simultaneous users
• Multiple operating systems and databases
• Mobile devices
• Built-in and custom alarms, trends, and reports
• Time-lapse

5.1.1 Client Computers

The client computer should have at least:

• Dual core processor
• 1.4 GB RAM
• Communications link of 10 Mbps or higher
• 64-bit processor

5.2 BACnet/IP Connection

The CORAYVAC

and COMPLETE™ Controllers

have built in BACnet/IP connection capabilities. To
maximize control capabilities on-site or off-site, it is
recommended to obtain a WebCTRL® license (con-
tact Roberts-Gordon LLC or your independent ROB-
ERTS GORDON

distributor for more details).

CORAYVAC

/COMPLETE™ Modulating Heating

Controls can also support existing BMS systems. For
BACnet® communication with WebCTRL® or exist-
ing BMS systems, follow steps below to set up an IP
connection to the modulating controller control board.

Addressing The Control Board

The control board needs two addresses, a network

address and an Ethernet address. The network
address, known as the MAC address, is set using the
rotary switches on the board.
