As an Example: Creating an HVAC Program

This section contains a step-by-step procedure for the creation of a simple HVAC program using the Catalyst graphical programming interface. The program will control an outside air damper. The program will decide if outside air can be used to cool the building, and then modulate the damper to bring in the correct amount of fresh air. The procedure demonstrates the following tasks:

▪Placing and configuring programming blocks

▪Configuring functional blocks

▪Copying blocks and configuration properties

▪Using Properties and configuring slots

▪Changing NV types

▪Using ReferenceHubs and ReferenceTargets

▪Compiling the code and downloading the code to a controller

▪Using Debug mode

▪Using overrides

Pre-Existing Conditions ► This example assumes that your PC has the Circon Catalyst plug-in installed, and the PC is attached to a network with a Circon controller that can be programmed using Catalyst (Circon UHC-400 or SCC-410).
