On 286A models, high-- and low--stage start relay and

capacitor operation (Bristol compressor only)

Field Connections

On models with non--communicating (non--Evolution) system, the
two--stage control receives 24vac low--voltage control system

inputs through the R, C, Y1, Y2 and O connections located at the
bottom of the control board (see Fig. 6.) On a non--communicating

system, output W1 is connected at the bottom of the control board

for auxiliary heat.
On models with communicating system, use the ABCD Evolution

connections.

Two Stage Compressor

The two stage compressor contains motor windings that provide
2--pole (3500 RPM) operation. For two--stage compressor, refer to

Table 5 for correct winding resistance.

Compressor Internal Relief

The compressor is protected by an internal pressure relief (IPR)

which relieves discharge gas into the compressor shell when

differential between suction and discharge pressure exceeds
500--550 psi on 286A models and 550--625 psi on 288A models.

The compressor is also protected by an internal overload attached
to motor windings.

Compressor Control Contactors

The contactor(s) have a 24volt coil. The electronic control board

controls the operation of the appropriate contactor.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Systems Communication Failure

If communication with the Evolution control is lost with the User

Interface, the control will flash the appropriate fault code. (See

Table 6.) Check the wiring to the UI and the indoor and outdoor
units.

Model Plug

Each control board contains a model plug. The correct model plug

must be installed for or the system to operate properly. (See Table
4.)

5.1

The model plug is used to identify the type and size of unit to the
control. On 286A models, the model plug is also used to determine

the start sequence timing for each individual model.

On new units, the model and serial numbers are input into the
board’s memory at the factory. If a model plug is lost or missing at

initial installation, the unit will operate according to the
information input at the factory and the appropriate error code will

flash temporarily. An RCD replacement board contains no model

and serial information. If the factory control board fails, the model
plug must be transferred from the original board to the replacement

board for the unit to operate.
NOTE:

The model plug takes priority over factory model

information input at the factory. If the model plug is removed after
initial power up, the unit will operate according to the last valid
model plug installed, and flash the appropriate fault code
temporarily.

Pressure Switch Protection

The outdoor unit is equipped with high-- and low--pressure

switches. If the control senses the opening of a high-- or
low--pressure switch, it will respond as follows:

1. De--energize the appropriate compressor contactor.
2. Keep the outdoor fan operating for 15 minutes.
3. Display the appropriate fault code (see Table 6).
4. After a 15 minute delay, if there is a call for cooling or heat-

ing and LPS or HPS is reset, the appropriate compressor
contactor is energized.

5. If LPS or HPS has not closed after a 15 minute delay, the

outdoor fan is turned off. If the open switch closes anytime
after the 15 minute delay, then resume operation with a call

for cooling or heating.

6. If LPS or HPS trips 3 consecutive cycles, the unit operation

is locked out for 4 hours.

7. In the event of a high--pressure switch trip or high--pressure

lockout, check the refrigerant charge, outdoor fan operation,

and outdoor coil (in cooling) for airflow restrictions, or in-
door airflow in heating.

8. In the event of a low--pressure switch trip or low--pressure

lockout, check the refrigerant charge and indoor airflow
(cooling) and outdoor fan operation and outdoor coil in

heating.

Control Fault

If the outdoor unit control board has failed, the control will flash

the appropriate fault code (see Table 6). The control board should

be replaced.

Brown--Out Protection

If the line voltage is less than 187v for at least 4 seconds, the

appropriate compressor contactor and fan relay are de--energized.
Compressor and fan operation are not allowed until voltage is a

minimum of 190v. The control will flash the appropriate fault code
(see Table 6).

230v Brown--Out Protection Defeated

The brownout feature can be defeated if needed for severe noisy

power conditions. This defeat should always be a last resort to
solving the problem. Defeat is available on the User Interface

setup screen (available with SYSTXBBUID01--C UI) or can be
initiated through the forced defrost pins for non--communicating

systems as follows:
The brownout toggle is accomplished by shorting the defrost pins
from power up with the OAT and OCT sensor connector removed.

After 3 seconds, the status of the force defrost short and the
OAT/OCT as open will be checked. If correct, then the brownout

will be toggled.

S

Status code 6 shows the brownout is disabled.

S

Status code 5 shows the brownout is active.

After the brownout defeat is set, power down and reinstall the
OAT/OCT sensor and remove the short from the forced defrost

pins. As long as the short on the forced defrost remains, the OAT
