5. Carefully adjust the minimum position potentiometer until
the measured mixed air temperature matches the calcu-
lated value.
6. Reconnect the supply air sensor to terminals T and T1.
Remote control of the EconoMi$er IV damper is desirable
when requiring additional temporary ventilation. If a field-sup-
plied remote potentiometer (Honeywell P/N: S963B1128) is
wired to the EconoMi$er IV controller, the minimum position
of the damper can be controlled from a remote location.
To control the minimum damper position remotely, remove the
factory-installed jumper on the P and P1 terminals on the
EconoMi$er IV controller. Wire the field-supplied potentiome-
ter to the P and P1 terminals on the EconoMi$er IV controller.
(See Fig. 67.)
DAMPER MOVEMENT
Damper movement from full open to full closed (or vice versa)
takes 2 1 /
2
minutes.
THERMOSTATS
The EconoMi$er IV control works with conventional thermo-
stats that have a Y1 (cool stage 1), Y2 (cool stage 2), W1 (heat
stage 1), W2 (heat stage 2), and G (fan). The EconoMi$er IV
control does not support space temperature sensors. Connec-
tions are made at the thermostat terminal connection board lo-
cated in the main control box.
OCCUPANCY CONTROL
The factory default configuration for the EconoMi$er IV con-
trol is occupied mode. Occupied status is provided by the black
jumper from terminal TR to terminal N. When unoccupied
mode is desired, install a field-supplied timeclock function in
place of the jumper between TR and N. When the timeclock
contacts are closed, the EconoMi$er IV control will be in occu-
pied mode. When the timeclock contacts are open (removing
the 24-v signal from terminal N), the EconoMi$er IV control
will be in unoccupied mode.
DEMAND CONTROLLED VENTILATION (DCV)
When using the EconoMi$er IV control for demand controlled
ventilation, there are some equipment selection criteria which
should be considered. When selecting the heat capacity and
cool capacity of the equipment, the maximum ventilation rate
must be evaluated for design conditions. The maximum damp-
er position must be calculated to provide the desired fresh air.
Typically the maximum ventilation rate will be about 5 to 10%
more than the typical cfm required per person, using normal
outside air design criteria.
A proportional anticipatory strategy should be taken with the
following conditions: a zone with a large area, varied occupan-
cy, and equipment that cannot exceed the required ventilation
rate at design conditions. Exceeding the required ventilation
rate means the equipment can condition air at a maximum ven-
tilation rate that is greater than the required ventilation rate for
maximum occupancy. A proportional-anticipatory strategy will
cause the fresh air supplied to increase as the room CO
2
level
increases even though the CO
2
set point has not been reached.
By the time the CO
2
level reaches the set point, the damper will
be at maximum ventilation and should maintain the set point.
In order to have the CO
2
sensor control the economizer damper
in this manner, first determine the damper voltage output for
minimum or base ventilation. Base ventilation is the ventila-
tion required to remove contaminants during unoccupied peri-
ods. The following equation may be used to determine the per-
cent of outside air entering the building for a given damper po-
sition. For best results, there should be at least a 10 degree
difference in outside and return-air temperatures.

OA = Percent of Outdoor Air

RA = Percent of Return Air

Once base ventilation has been determined, set the minimum
damper position potentiometer to the correct position.
The same equation can be used to determine the occupied or
maximum ventilation rate to the building. For example, an out-
put of 3.6 volts to the actuator provides a base ventilation rate
of 5% and an output of 6.7 volts provides the maximum venti-
lation rate of 20% (or base plus 15 cfm per person). Use Fig. 77
to determine the maximum setting of the CO
2
sensor. For ex-
ample, an 1100 ppm set point relates to a 15 cfm per person de-
sign. Use the 1100 ppm curve on Fig. 77 to find the point when
the CO
2
sensor output will be 6.7 volts. Line up the point on
the graph with the left side of the chart to determine that the
range configuration for the CO
2
sensor should be 1800 ppm.
The EconoMi$er IV controller will output the 6.7 volts from
the CO
2
sensor to the actuator when the CO
2
concentration in
the space is at 1100 ppm. The DCV set point may be left at
2 volts since the CO
2
sensor voltage will be ignored by the
EconoMi$er IV controller until it rises above the 3.6 volt set-
ting of the minimum position potentiometer.
Once the fully occupied damper position has been determined,
set the maximum damper demand control ventilation potenti-
ometer to this position. Do not set to the maximum position as
this can result in over-ventilation to the space and potential
high humidity levels.

SENSOR CONFIGURATION
The CO
2
sensor has preset standard voltage settings that can be
selected anytime after the sensor is powered up.
Use setting 1 or 2 for Bryant equipment.
1. Press Clear and Mode buttons. Hold at least 5 seconds
until the sensor enters the Edit mode.
2. Press Mode twice. The STDSET Menu will appear.
3. Use the Up/Down button to select the preset number.
4. Press Enter to lock in the selection.
5. Press Mode to exit and resume normal operation.
The custom settings of the CO
2
sensor can be changed anytime
after the sensor is energized. Follow the steps below to change
the non-standard settings:
1. Press Clear and Mode buttons. Hold at least 5 seconds
until the sensor enters the Edit mode.
2. Press Mode twice. The STDSET Menu will appear.
3. Use the Up/Down button to toggle to the NONSTD menu
and press Enter.
4. Use the Up/Down button to toggle through each of the
nine variables, starting with Altitude, until the desired set-
ting is reached.
5. Press Mode to move through the variables.
6. Press Enter to lock in the selection, then press Mode to
continue to the next variable.
DEHUMIDIFICATION OF FRESH AIR WITH DCV
(DEMAND CONTROLLED VENTILATION) CONTROL
If normal rooftop heating and cooling operation is not adequate
for the outdoor humidity level, an energy recovery unit and/or
a dehumidification option should be considered.
EconoMi$er IV Preparation
This procedure is used to prepare the EconoMi$er IV for trou-
bleshooting. No troubleshooting or testing is done by perform-
ing the following procedure.
NOTE: This procedure requires a 9-v battery, 1.2 kilo-ohm resis-
tor, and a 5.6 kilo-ohm resistor which are not supplied with the
EconoMi$er IV control.
