Tel: (512) 249-7526 Fax: (512) 275-6155 AirCare TCP/IP Control Console Overview AirCare Automation’s TCP/IP Control System incorporates a PC GUI (PC3) along with AirCare Control Consoles (ACC3/ACC4) to intelligently monitor and controls AC motor, DC motor and lighting networks. The AirCare TCP/IP Control System offers local, visible tracking and provides adjustment features from the PC3 GUI and the Console. The “PC3” is AirCare’s Graphical User Interface (GUI) that allows access to the ACC3/ACC4’s network through a remote PC via TCP/IP. The console provides communication (MODBUS-RTU platform), unit control, and system monitoring in one easy-touse package. The PC3 software allows consolidation of large systems and provides central, PC control, of the customers’ installation. The AirCare TCP/IP Control System requires no programming to install a network. The console automatically scans the network, simplifying configuration. 500 units per Console – ACC3/ACC4 has 1 to 4 zones and each zone can control up to 125 VariPhase/ACM addresses. The PC3 can consolidate 20+ Consoles, providing System configurations of 10,000 nodes or more easy to implement. Main Functions (ACC4 Console only) o Individual speed adjustment o Global speed adjustment o Unique IP address for configuration with the PC3. o Zone set-back speed adjustment o Individual set-back adjustment o Central monitoring of fault sensors (pressure drop on AC, RPM drop on EC type) o Menu driven configuration options o Monitors units and identifies error modes Features (ACC4 Console only)
