Figure 3.29 Suction Group Setup Screen
From this screen you can edit the name of the suction
group, select the control type, and enter the number
of stages. The number of stages can be determined
as follows:
A compressor with an unloader will count as two
stages. A compressor without an unloader will count
as one stage.
To continue the suction group setup process:
1. Press F2 (Next Tab) until the Comp Setup screen
is displayed.
2. Under Type, select Comp for compressor or Unld
for unloader.
3. Under HP/Amps enter the compressor horsepow-
er for each stage.
4. If run proofing is desired, select Yes under Proof.
Note: For a compressor equipped with an unloader
the horsepower should be divided between the
compressor and unloader stages. A compressor with
an unloader can be considered to be two different
compressors from a control standpoint. When the
suction group status screen shows the unloader to be
“off” and the comp (compressor) to be “on”, the com-
pressor is running “unloaded”, i.e. the unloaded por-
tion of the compressor is not contributing to
generation of capacity (this is confusing since the
unloader solenoid in this case is actually “on”). If the
comp and unloader are both “on”, the compressor is
running at full capacity.
When the steps above have been completed, the
compressor setup screen should look like figure 3.30.
To continue the suction group setup process:
1. Press F2 (Next Tab) to go to the Comp Outs
screen.
2. Press F3 (Edit).
3. Press 1 (Alternate I/O Format).
4. Press 2 to change the I/O format from board/point
to controller/application/property.
5. Under Controller, use the F4 lookup function to
select the E2 rack controller.
6. Under Application, use the F4 lookup function to
select the appropriate compressor.
7. Under Property, use the F4 lookup function to
select Comp Run In.
Note: If the stage being mapped is an unloader,
select Unloader 1 In for Property.
