FIELD CONTROL WIRING — Install a Carrier-approved
accessory thermostat assembly according to installation in-
structions included with the accessory. Locate thermostat as-
sembly on a solid wall in the conditioned space to sense av-
erage temperature in accordance with thermostat installation
instructions.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of col-
ored wire from subbase terminals to low-voltage connec-
tions on unit (shown in Fig. 8) as described in Steps 1 through
4 below.
NOTE: For wire runs up to 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG (Ameri-
can Wire Gage) insulated wire (35 C minimum). For 51 to
75 ft, use no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum). For
over 75 ft, use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum).
All wire larger than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly con-
nected to the thermostat and will require a junction box and
splice at the thermostat.
1. If unit is mounted on roof curb and accessory thru-the-
curb service plate connection is used, route wire through
connection plate.
2. Pass control wires through the hole provided on unit (see
connection D in Connection Sizes table in Fig. 6A and 6B).
3. Feed wire through the raceway built into the corner post
to the 24-v barrier located on the left side of the control
box. See Fig. 9. The raceway provides the UL required
clearance between the high- and low-voltage wiring.
4. Connect thermostat wires to screw terminals of low-
voltage connector (see Fig. 8).
NOTE: If thru-the-bottom power connections are used refer
to the accessory installation instructions for information on
power wiring. Refer to Fig. 6A and 6B for drilling holes in
basepan.
HEAT ANTICIPATOR SETTINGS — For 50GJ006 units,
set first-stage heat anticipator setting at 0.8 and set second-
stage heat anticipator setting at 0.3. For 50GJ008 and 012
units with electric heat, set heat anticipator settings as shown
in Table 3.
Step 6 — Adjust Factory-Installed Options
APOLLO CONTROL — The optional Apollo control is used
to actively monitor all modes of operation as well as indoor
(evaporator) fan status, filter status, and indoor-air quality.
The Apollo control is designed to work with Carrier TEMP
and VVT
t
systems.
The thermostat must be wired to the Apollo control before
starting the unit. Refer to the Apollo control installation in-
structions for information on installing the thermostat. See
Fig. 10 for Apollo location.
DISCONNECT SWITCH — The optional disconnect switch
is non-fused. The switch has the capability of being locked
in place for safety purposes.
