Several temperature inputs are connected to the proces- sor . There are either 4 or 5 thermistors (depending on the field-installed accessories) which input temperature data into the processor through pin terminal connector J1. See T able 1 and Fig. 2. Several status switches are also monitored. These switches are connected to the processor at pin[...]

Economizer — Economizer control is used to control the outside and return air dampers of the unit, to satisfy space cooling demand using all outside air (when permitted), and to satisfy cooling in conjunction with compressor operation (when conditions permit). During Occupied periods without cooling demand, the outside-air dampers will be at the [...]

V ariable Frequency Drive (VFD) — The optional VFD is used to modulate supply fan airflow to maintain duct static pressure on V A V applications. The VFD is located in the supply fan section (see Fig. 18 and 19), and can be ac- cessed by opening the fan section access door . The unit is supplied with a pressure transducer capable of measuring fr[...]

capacity stages to maintain user-established supply-air set point temperature. When V A V units are also equipped with optional supply duct pressure controls (either inlet guide vanes [IGV] or variable frequency drive package), the unit also senses an increase in duct static pressure and responds by closing IGV dampers or slowing fan wheel speed to[...]

EXAMPLE: T10 desired set point is 70 F . T10 R from T able 4 for 70 F is 5929 ohms. P7 R = 13,084 – 5929 P7 R = 7155 ohms Using an ohmmeter , set the P7 potentiometer to 7155 ohms to achieve a reset initiation set point of 70 F . Potentiometer P3 — Reset limit set point (maximum tem- perature value for modified supply air set point). Maximum o[...]

Demand Limit — The demand limit function provides a means to limit the cooling capacity of the V A V unit using an external discrete switch function. When enabled by the closure of the external switch, the control will limit the avail- able compressor staging capacity according to user set points established at demand limit potentiometer(s). The [...]

Connect the potentiometer end terminals to terminals 8 and 9 on control terminal block TB3 (sizes 034-048) or TB4 (sizes 054-104) (see Fig 27). Connect the switch terminals to the potentiometer wiper arm terminal and to terminal 10 on TB3 or TB4. T o enable demand limit function, change DIP switch 5 to position ON. (Disconnect control power before [...]

OCCUPIED/UNOCCUPIED — The unit control system will initiate normal occupied mode functions (including Morn- ing W arm-up, Economizer Minimum Position, and Cooling Cycle) whenever a contact closure is made that emulates the normal timeclock contacts. See Fig. 23. (‘ ‘Occupied/Unoccupied Switch’ ’). The contact closure from the BMS must be [...]

EXTERNAL ALARM SIGNAL — The unit controls pro- vide an external alarm status signal via a 1 15-vac output sig- nal at the relay board J5, available at TB2-4 and TB2-5 (common). This signal can be forwarded to the BMS by add- ing a signal relay at the alarm output, placing its coil across terminals TB2-4 and TB2-5 and using its contacts to control[...]

Operating Sequence — The sequence presented be- low assumes that the unit is equipped with heat for morning warm-up and an economizer . If these items are not enabled with the appropriate DIP switches, the processor bypasses these subroutines.

Diagnostic Codes — Diagnostic codes are warnings of abnormal or fault conditions, and may cause either one circuit or the whole unit to shut down. They are assigned code numbers as described below . T able 22 contains a description of each diagnostic code error and possible cause. Manual reset is accomplished by moving the ON/OFF Switch to the OF[...]

CODES 59 AND 60: LOW -PRESSURE SWITCH — These codes are used to indicate a low-pressure switch failure. The processor monitors the low-pressure switch. If the switch opens, either by low refrigerant charge, circuit failure, or wir - ing error , the circuit is locked of f. Code 59 indicates a failure of the lead circuit, and as a result, that circ[...]

Incorrect Potentiometer Setting — A potentiometer turned fully clockwise or counterclockwise is outside the valid range and will result in a failure. Faulty W iring — If the wiring between the potentiometer and the processor board is incorrect, a failure will result. Potentiometer Failure — If potentiometer is shorted or open, a failure will [...]

These 2 steps will help determine if a component other than a board is at fault or if the problem is external to control circuit. A volt-ohmmeter will be needed to troubleshoot boards. A digital meter is preferred but a Simpson 260 or equivalent will work. To prevent damage to solid-state electronic components on boards, meter probes should only be[...]
