5.1.3 Pre-Commissioning Checks-DDC Controller

 METHOD STATEMENT FOR Rev.: 00
ELV System Date of Issue: 25.01.09

 Install DDC Controller Housing, CPU, Power Supply, MMI and I/O
modules as per installation details provided by Honeywell.

5.1.4 Cabling

 Check all internal wiring as per panel wiring diagram.

 Check for all field instruments cables including cables between DDC
controller and MCC to be available in DDC controller cabinet
with proper ferruling, dressing and crimping.

6 Commissioning/Test Procedures
6.1 Power-up Controller

 Check DDC Power Supply On/Off Switch is in OFF position.

 Check for 220Vac at MCB.
 If 220Vac available at MCB’s switch on MCB’s to provide power at
CRT6 & CRT6-6. If 220 Vac not available, inform to check and rectify.
 Check 24Vac output at CRT6 & CRT6-6.
 If 24Vac available at transformers, switch DDC Power Supply Module
to ON position. If 24Vac not available, check transformer fuses and
windings. Replace fuse or transformer as applicable.
 When power supply module is switched on, check controller OS
version, generate default data to check I/O modules. Verify the
number and type of modules connected on the LON bus.

6.2 Download Software at Controller

 Set controller number to 1.
 Set controller Date & Time.
 Download DDC controller application software.
 Check for any system alarms.

6.3 Connect Field Wiring at DDC Controller & Check

 Start connecting field instrument cables in the following

sequence:
 METHOD STATEMENT FOR Rev.: 00
ELV System Date of Issue: 25.01.09

 Digital Inputs: Check all DI cables coming from field for

VOLT FREE condition. Connect each pair of field instrument
cable at the appropriate terminals as per the drawing. Short
the wires and disconnect the wires at the field end and check
for appropriate LED status at the DI Module. Check for text
change at MMI (Man-Machine Interface – Laptop).

 Digital Outputs: Check all DO cables coming from field to

be without voltage before termination. Connect each pair of
field instrument cable at the appropriate terminals as per the
drawing. Change all equipment Hand-Off-Auto selector
switches AUTO position. Use MMI to manually energize/de-
energize all digital outputs.

 Analog Outputs: Connect all cables of field instruments for

Analog Outputs at the appropriate terminals as per the
drawing. Check for availability of 24Vac at each valve motor.
Use MMI to manually energize/de-energize all Analog
outputs by giving 0-10Volts DC to physically open the field
device to various percentage.

 Analog Inputs: Connect all cables of field instruments for

Analog Inputs at the appropriate terminals as per the
drawing. Check for availability of 24Vac at each field
instrument wherever applicable. Check for Analog signals at
MMI for correct engineering units, and values.

The detail Test report for each system / item of plant will be submitted as
per the Inspection and Test Plan.

6.4 Sequence of Operation Check

When all field have been verified and checked, check the
sequence of operations as described in the Engineering
Submittal and the O&M Manual. The detail check (Like
Temperature control loop, Heat exchanger valve control loop
etc.) for each system / item of plant will be checked as per the
sequence of operation. The computer printouts of the alarms
and data logs will be submitted as part of the sign off
documentation.

6.5 Network Check

 METHOD STATEMENT FOR Rev.: 00
ELV System Date of Issue: 25.01.09

When all field DDC Controllers have been verified and checked,
Network connection of the controllers shall be done.
Before connection Al habtoor will make sure for the network
cable continuity.
