All data given while air handler is operating with a wet DX coil and air filter installed. 
Speeds marked in 

bold with an asterisk*

 are the factory settings for both heating and cooling. 

Cooling speeds should not be reduced below factory settings. 
Different speeds can be set for heating mode. 
 

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION 

 

Cooling (cooling only or heat pump) 

When the thermostat calls for cooling, the circuit between R and 
G is completed, and the blower relay is energized. The Normally 
Open contacts close, causing the indoor blower motor to operate. 
The circuit between R and Y is also completed; this circuit closes 
the contactor in the outdoor fan motor. Circuit R and O energizes 
the reversing valve, switching it to the cooling position. (The 
reversing valve remains energized as long as selector switch is 
on the COOL position.) 
 

Heating (electric heat only) 

When the thermostat calls for heat, the circuit between R and W 
is completed, and the heater sequencer is energized. A time 
delay follows before the heating elements and the indoor blower 
motor comes on. Units with a second heat sequencer can be 
connected with the first sequencer to W on the thermostat 
subbase or connected to a second stage on the subbase. 

 
Heating (heat pump) 

When the thermostat calls for heat, the circuits between R and Y 
and R and G are completed. Circuit R-Y energizes the contactor  

 
starting the outdoor fan motor and the compressor. Circuit R and 
G energizes the blower relay starting the indoor blower motor. 
If the room temperature should continue to fall, the circuit 
between R and W1 is completed by the second stage heat room 
thermostat. Circuit R-W1 energizes a heat sequencer. The 
completed circuit will energize supplemental electric heat (if 
applicable). Units with a second heater sequencer can be 
connected with the first sequencer to W1 on the thermostat or 
connected to a second heating stage W2 on the thermostat 
subbase. 

 
Emergency Heat (heating heat pump) 

If selector switch on thermostat is set to the emergency heat 
position, the heat pump will be locked out of the heating circuit, 
and all heating will be electric heat (if applicable). A jumper 
should be placed between W2 and E on the thermostat subbase 
so that the electric heat control will transfer to the first stage heat 
on the thermostat. This will allow the indoor blower to cycle on 
and off with the electric heat when the fan switch is in the AUTO 
position.
