TROUBLESHOOTING

No Display, or Display of

888

Check the 120VAC power input to the SC. Turn power to the SC off and back on.

TEMPERATURE INPUTS

Display shows

OPn

First check the dip switch (see pg. 4 ) to be sure the SC is confi gured to read a temperature

input. If the dip switch is correct, then the SC does not register that a sensor is connected.

Check that the wires from the sensor are continuous to the SC. Then follow the procedure for

Incorrect Temperature Display.

Display shows

SHt

The SC sees a short across the input terminals. Remove the wires from the TEMP (1 & 2)

inputs. The display should change to read OPn. If it doesn’t, the SC may be damaged.

Display shows an Incorrect Temperature Display

Remove the wires from the TEMP (

TEMP

TEMP 1 and 2) inputs. The display should change to read OPn.

If it doesn’t, the SC may be damaged. Take an ohm reading across the detached sensor wires.

The ohm reading should correspond to the chart at right. If it doesn’t, the sensor may be

damaged.

Outdoor Temperature Display shows OPn

Check the wires from the outdoor sensor are continuous to the SC. Then follow the procedure

for Incorrect Outdoor Temperature Display.

Outdoor Temperature Display shows SHt

The SC sees a short across the input terminals. Remove the wires from the OUTDOOR

(11 and 12

and

and ) inputs. The display should change to read OPn. If it doesn’t, the SC may be

damaged.

Outdoor Temperature Display shows an Incorrect Reading

Remove the wires from the OUTDOOR (11 and 12) inputs. The outdoor temperature display

should change to read OPn. If it doesn’t, the SC may be damaged. Take an ohm reading

across the detached sensor wires. The ohm reading should correspond to the chart on the

right. If it doesn’t, the sensor may be damaged.

EXTERNAL SET POINT INPUT

Set Point changes when the knob is rotated

Check the dip switch (pg. 4).

Set Point always reads OFF

Check that the wiring is appropriate for the application (see pg. 23). Then use an ampmeter to measure the 4-20mA input. If the

input is below 3.9mA or above 20.1mA, the Set Point will always be OFF.

LEAD STAGE

There is no green lead stage light on

Check the 120VAC power input to the SC. Turn power to the SC off and back on. If more than one lead stage LED lights, the

unit may be damaged.
