Initialization
On system power up, there is an approximately 30-second startup
delay where all default setpoints are initialized, LED’s are initialized,
and all outputs are turned off.
When power is fi rst applied, the STATUS1 LED will fl ash intermit-
tently for about 10 seconds. After a short pause, STATUS1 LED
and STATUS2 LED will fl ash out the controller address. STATUS1
LED will fl ash to represent the tens position. STATUS2 LED will
fl ash to represent the ones position. After the controller address is
complete, there will be a short pause while the initialization process
is completed. There will be no controller operation or communica-
tions during initialization. After initialization, STATUS2 LED will
continuously fl ash the status code—(1) blink indicates Normal
Operation; (2) blinks indicates a Push-Button Schedule Override
is in effect.
Example of a controller address of 25:
STATUS1 LED will fl ash 2 times. STATUS2 LED will fl ash 5 times.
Prism 2 Software
The next step is programming the controller for your specifi c require-
ments. In order to confi gure and program the Lead/Lag Controller,
you must use Prism 2 software. This gives you access to the status,
confi guration, and setpoint screens of the Lead/Lag Controller. The
software is distributed on CD or can be downloaded for free from
our website: www.wattmaster.com/techsupport.
If you are unfamiliar with Prism 2, we recommend that you reference
the Prism 2 Technical Guide to familiarize yourself with the program.
