Direct Digital Controls (DDC) APPLICATION GUIDE DDC Application Guide for Paragon HVAC Series Introduction This guide will provide a brief overview of how to control and monitor key aspects of a Paragon HVAC Uni
3.2.2.5 Direct digital control In DDC, a digital computer computes control signals that directly operate the control devices. A single computer digitally performs signal processing, indication, and control functions and therefore the name “direct digital control.” Initially computers were very large ...
Specifying a Direct Digital Control (DDC) System By George Thomas Introduction Direct Digital Control System (DDC) is a term frequently found in building automation specifications. According to Levenhagen and Spethmann, "Direct Digital Control is the use of computers or microprocessors in conjunction ...
In DDC, a digital computer computes control signals that directly operate the control devices. A single computer digitally performs signal processing, indication, and control functions and therefore the name “direct digital control.” Initially computers were very large and housed in large buildings wi...
The purpose of this report is to describe the state-of-the-art of direct digital control (DDC) system technology that monitors and controls mechanical and electrical systems found in Government facilities. A DDC system can operate either as a stand-alone control system or as an extension to ...
Partial shading of solar panels diminishes their operating efficiency and energy synthesized as it disrupts the uniform absorption of sunlight. To tackle the issue of partial shading in photovoltaic (PV) systems, this article puts forward a comprehensive

Some digital devices have the advantage to be continuously self-calibrating. • Better accuracy is obtained from digital controls compared to pneumatic or electric devices. While DDC devices have been used since the 1980s, it is only recently that manufacturers have developed systems that house ...
The robust assurance scheme is designed between the control station and the Direct Digital Control (DDC) controller to enhance system reliability. As depicted in Fig. 1, the optimal setpoints generated by the AI-empowered algorithm are sent to a detection node at the controller, where their vali...
