Lennox V0ctrl95p-3 Lvm Hardware Bacnet Gateway Device Installation Guide

V0CTRL95P-3 LVM Hardware BACnet Gateway Device

Product Information

The LVM Hardware/BACnet Gateway Device – V0CTRL95P-3 is a device
that can control and monitor up to 320 VRB & VPB VRF systems
with up to 960 VRF outdoor units and 2560 VRF indoor units. It
consists of one touch screen LVM centralized controller or Building
Management System connected with a minimum of one (maximum of ten)
devices. The system requires a field-supplied router switch and
communication wiring. All Lennox VRB & VPB outdoor and P3
indoor units can be connected to the device. The connected VRF
systems will provide cooling and heating to the building at the
direction of the LVM/BMS.

Product Usage Instructions

Before operating the LVM Hardware/BACnet Gateway Device, read
all of the information in the manual provided with the device. The
manual should be left with the owner for future reference.

Installation Instructions

The installation of the LVM System & BACnet Gateway requires
the following components:

• Touch Screen Centralized Controller V0CTRL15P-3 (13G97) (15
  screen) or Building Management System software
• LVM Hardware/BACnet Gateway Device – V0CTRL95P-3 (17U39)
• LVM software key dongle (17U38)
• Router switch, wireless or wired (field-supplied)
• Cat. 5 ethernet cable (field-supplied)
• 40 VA step-down transformer (field-supplied)
• 18 GA, stranded, 2-conductor shielded control wire (polarity
  sensitive) (field supplied)
• 110V power supply(ies) (field supplied)
• Commissioned Lennox VRF system(s)

The installation process involves the following steps:

1. Determine the location of each equipment component.
2. Ensure that the proper power supply is provided. Refer to
   wiring diagrams.
3. Run wiring and cables. Refer to wiring diagrams.
4. Commission the Lennox VRF system(s).
5. Commission the LVM/Building Management System.

Connection Points

The LVM Hardware/BACnet Gateway Device can be connected to the
LVM Centralized Controller or Building Management System using Cat.
5 Ethernet cable. The device requires a 110 VAC power supply and a
40 VA 24VAC transformer.

Figure 16. Up to Ten Devices

MULTIPLE SYSTEMS CONNECTED TO ONE PORT OF DEVICE (DAISY CHAIN) VRF Heat Recovery And VRF Heat Pump Systems
1. Provide every outdoor unit with a network address (ENC 4) starting from 0 up to 7. Maximum number of outdoor units per device is 96. See illustration on Page 15. NOTE – for Double and Triple Module Units – Sub units must NOT have the same network address (ENC 4) as the main unit it serves. ENC 4 must be unique for each refrigerant system on one XY port. Main/sub relationships are defined using ENC 1. See illustration on next page.
2. All Indoor units connected to a VPB outdoor unit are automatically addressed by default (256 total units per device). Use the outdoor unit LCD service console to automatically assign addresses to the indoor units.
3. XY shall connect from the main outdoor unit addressed as 0 (ENC 4), to all other main outdoor units connected to the LVM hardware. XY terminals must be connected to each main outdoor unit via daisy chain connection. NOTE – For Double and Triple Module Units ­ H1H2 terminals needs to be connected from the main outdoor unit to each sub unit should sub units need to be seen from the LVM.
