How do I program Siebe Wall Stat?
In order to program a Wall Stat, you must first program the controller that it is wired to. Let’s assume we have an 8X controller programmed on a TCP/IP channel already. In Editor Mode, go to Hardware View, TCP/IP Controllers channel (whatever it is named), Controllers button, and click on the controller that is to be used as the channel to the Siebe Wall Stat. Click on Channels, and click Add a Channel next to RS-485 Host. Enter a name for the channel and click on Select Configuration. Choose Opto-22 on Controller and click on Add Channel Now. This channel will not show up in the channel list in Hardware View. You will only be able to access it through Channels on the controller.
To program the Wall Stat on the Channel you created, hit escape or right-click until you can access the Main Menu. Click on Database, then Add a Controller. Type in a Name for the controller and hit Enter. Select Siebe in the “Make” column and S3 is the only choice in the “Model” column. Hit enter and on the next window, select the controller to which the Wall Stat is wired. Click next and You will be asked if you want to add the controller to the Handheld channel. Click No and you will be asked if you want to add the controller to the channel created on the RS-485 Host channel. Click Yes and on the next window select the address of the Siebe Wall Stat. Setting the address will be covered later. Click finish and you can now add points to your Wall Stat.
To add points, go back to Hardware View, click on the controller and click on Channels. Click on the channel you created earlier and click Points. Click on Add A Point next to the point you want to program and give it a name that includes the name of the Wall Stat. The functions of the points are pre-determined and most are obvious. Here are descriptions of some of the less obvious ones.
- Mode: There are 4 modes, which determine what is seen in the display on the Wall Stat itself.
- Temp: Stat display shows the Space Temp
- SPTemp: Display shows Setpoint when in OCCupied status, shows Space Temp when in UNOCCupied status.
- Setpnt: Shows Setpoint all the time
- Altern: Display shows Alternate Display Number, which can be set to anything
It is a good idea to erase any database that might be on the Wall Stat when opening the database in Real Mode. To do that, click on the Wall Stat and click Erase Static RAM on Controller.
Setting the address on the Stat Interface Board.
There are toggle switches numbered 1 thru 8 which relate to the values of a binary Byte. Flip enough toggle switches to equal the number of the address. The values are as follows:
1 = 128
2 = 64
3 = 32
4 = 16
5 = 8
6 = 4
7 = 2
8 = 1
For example, a controller with address 10 would have switch 5 and 7 in the ON position. 8 + 2 = 10
Address 97 would have switches 2, 3, and 8 in the ON position. 64 + 32 + 1 = 97
