high--cooling airflow. High--cooling airflow is based on
the A/C selection shown in Table 1.

c. When the “call for cooling” is satisfied and there is a

demand for dehumidification, the cooling blower--off
delay is decreased from 90 seconds to 5 seconds.

5. SUPER--DEHUMIDIFY MODE

Super--Dehumidify mode can only be entered if the furnace control

is in the dehumidify mode and there is a demand for
dehumidification. The cooling operation described in item 3.

above also applies to operation with a dehumidify enabled

thermostat. The exceptions are listed below:

a. When the R to Y1 circuit is closed, R to G circuit is

open, and there is a demand for dehumidification, the
furnace blower motor BLWM will drop the blower
airflow to 65% of low--cooling airflow for a maximum

of 10 minutes each cooling cycle or until the R to G
circuit closes or the demand for dehumidification is

satisfied. Low--cooling airflow is the true on--board CF
selection as shown in Table 1.

b. When the R to Y/Y2 circuit is closed, R to G circuit is

open, and there is a demand for dehumidification, the
furnace blower motor BLWM will drop the blower

airflow to 65% of high--cooling airflow for a maximum
of 10 minutes each cooling cycle or until the R to G
circuit closes or the demand for dehumidification is

satisfied. High--cooling airflow is based on the A/C
selection shown in Table 1.

c. When the “call for cooling” is satisfied and there is a

demand for dehumidification, the cooling blower--off

delay is decreased from 90 seconds to 5 seconds.

6. CONTINUOUS BLOWER MODE

When the R to G circuit is closed by the thermostat, the blower

motor BLWM will operate at continuous blower airflow.

Continuous blower airflow selection is initially based on the CF
selection shown in Table 1. Factory default is shown in Table 1.

Terminal EAC--1 is energized as long as the blower motor BLWM
is energized.
During a call for heat, the furnace control CPU will transition the
blower motor BLWM to continuous blower airflow, low--heat

airflow, or the midrange airflow, whichever is lowest. The blower

motor BLWM will remain ON until the main burners ignite then
shut OFF and remain OFF for the blower--ON delay (60 seconds in

low--heat, and 35 seconds in high--heat), allowing the furnace heat
exchangers to heat up more quickly, then restarts at the end of the

blower--ON delay period at low--heat or high--heat airflow

respectively.
The blower motor BLWM will revert to continuous--blower

airflow after the heating cycle is completed. In high--heat, the
furnace control CPU will drop the blower motor BLWM to

low--heat airflow during the selected blower--OFF delay period

before transitioning to continuous--blower airflow.
When the thermostat ”calls for low--cooling”, the blower motor

BLWM will switch to low--cooling airflow. When the thermostat
is satisfied, the blower motor BLWM will operate an additional 90

seconds at low--cooling airflow before transitioning back to
continuous--blower airflow.
When the thermostat ”calls for high--cooling”, the blower motor

BLWM will switch to high cooling airflow. When the thermostat
is satisfied, the blower motor BLWM will operate an additional 90

seconds at high--cooling airflow before transitioning back to
continuous--blower airflow.
When the R to G circuit is opened, the blower motor BLWM will

continue operating for an additional 5 seconds, if no other function
requires blower motor BLWM operation.

a. Continuous Blower Speed Selection from Thermostat

To select different continuous--blower airflows from the room

thermostat, momentarily turn off the FAN switch or push--button

on the room thermostat for 1--3 seconds after the blower motor
BLWM is operating. The furnace control CPU will shift the

continuous--blower airflow from the factory setting to the next
highest CF selection airflow as shown in Table 1. Momentarily

turning off the FAN switch again at the thermostat will shift the

continuous--blower airflow up one more increment. If you repeat
this

procedure

enough

you

will

eventually

shift

the

continuous--blower airflow to the lowest CF selection as shown in
Table 1. The selection can be changed as many times as desired

and is stored in the memory to be automatically used following a

power interruption.

7. HEAT PUMP DEFROST

When installed with a heat pump, the furnace control automatically
changes the timing sequence to avoid long blower off times during

demand defrost cycles. Whenever W/W1 is energized along with
Y1 or Y/Y2, the furnace control CPU will transition to or bring on

the blower motor BLWM at cooling airflow, low--heat airflow, or

the midrange airflow, whichever is lowest. The blower motor
BLWM will remain on until the main burners ignite then shut OFF

and remain OFF for 25 seconds before coming back on at heating
airflow. When the W/W1 input signal disappears, the furnace

control begins a normal inducer post--purge period while changing
the blower airflow. If Y/Y2 input is still energized the furnace

control CPU will transition the blower motor BLWM airflow to

cooling airflow. If Y/Y2 input signal disappears and the Y1 input
is still energized the furnace control CPU will transition the blower

motor BLWM to low--cooling airflow. If both the Y1 and Y/Y2
signals disappear at the same time, the blower motor BLWM will

remain on at low--heat airflow for the selected blower--OFF delay

period. At the end of the blower--OFF delay, the blower motor
BLWM will shut OFF unless G is still energized, in which case the

blower motor BLWM will operate at continuous blower airflow.

8. COMPONENT TEST

The furnace features a component test system to help diagnose a
system problem in the case of a component failure. To initiate the

component test procedure, ensure that there are no thermostat

inputs to the control and all time delays have expired. Turn on
setup switch SW1--6. (See Appendix A)

NOTE

:

The component test feature will not operate if the

control is receiving any thermostat signals or until all time
delays have expired.

The component test sequence is as follows:

a. The furnace control CPU turns the inducer motor IDM

ON at medium speed and keeps it ON through step c.

b. After waiting 10 seconds the furnace control CPU turns

the hot surface igniter ON for 15 seconds, then OFF.

c. The furnace control CPU then turns the blower motor

BLWM on at midrange airflow for 15 seconds, then
OFF.

d. After shutting the blower motor OFF the furnace control

CPU shuts the inducer motor IDM.

NOTE

:

The EAC terminals are energized when the blower

is operating.

After the component test is completed, 1 or more status codes (11,

25, 41, or 42) will flash. See Service Label on blower access panel
or Service/Status Code Instructions for explanation of status codes.

NOTE

:

To repeat component test, turn setup switch

SW1--6 to OFF and then back ON.
