SECTION IX: SYSTEM OPERATION

For more information on the control operation, refer to “Operation

Instructions - DEMAND DEFROST CONTROL BOARD in this Booklet.

REQUIRED CONTROL SETUP

1. Consult system wiring diagram to determine proper thermostat wir-

ing for your system.

2. If hot heat pump configuration is desired, change HOT HEAT PUMP

jumper to ON position. This setting MUST be set on the defrost

board.

3. If installation includes a fossil fuel furnace, change FUEL jumper to

ON position. This setting MUST be set on the defrost board.

4. Set low temperature cutout (LTCO), balance point (BP), switch point

(SP), and Y2 Lock jumpers as desired. These settings may be mod-

ified by communicating thermostat.

5. Verify proper system functionality. Confirm room thermostat opera-

tion including fault code display capability.

6. Upon completion of installation, verify that no fault codes are stored

in memory. Clear the fault code memory if necessary.

ENERGIZE CRANKCASE HEATER

If this unit is equipped with a crankcase heater for the compressor, a

warning label with an adhesive back is supplied in the unit installation

instruction packet. This label should be attached to the field supplied

disconnect switch where it will be easily seen.
In order to energize the crankcase heater, set the indoor cooling ther-

mostat to the OFF position. Close the line power disconnect to the unit.

WITH POWER TO UNIT AND THERMOSTAT IN COOLING

POSITION:
1. In the cooling cycle, discharge gas is pumped to the outdoor coil

which is the condenser. The indoor coil is the evaporator.

2. If fan switch is in ON position, a circuit is made through blower relay

to provide continuous blower operation.

3. With fan switch in AUTO position, a circuit is made from thermostat

cooling contact through blower relay to provide blower operation.

4. System will cycle with thermostat demand to provide cooling as

needed.

DEFROST OPERATION

The following defrost curve selection jumper positions are set from fac-

tory.
