the call is for high heat, the gas valve and induced
draft blower will change to high stage.

Circulator blower is energized on heat speed following
a thirty (30) second blower on delay.  The circulator
blower requires thirty seconds to ramp up to full
speed. Electronic air cleaner terminal is energized
with circulator blower.

Furnace is now operating on the specified stage
called for by the two-stage thermostat.

Furnace runs, integrated control module monitors
safety circuits continuously.

If the two-stage thermostat changes the call from
low heat to high heat, the integrated control module
will immediately switch the induced draft blower,
gas valve, and circulator blower to their high stage
settings.

If the two-stage thermostat changes the call from
high heat to low heat, the control will immediately
switch the induced draft blower and gas valve to
their low stage settings.  The circulator blower will

remain on high heating speed for thirty (30) seconds
before switching to the low heat circulating speed.

R and W1 (or R and W1/W2) thermostat contacts
open, completing the call for heat.

Gas valve closes, extinguishing flame.

Induced draft blower is de-energized following a
fifteen second post purge. Humidifier terminals are
de-energized.

Circulator blower continues running for the selected
heat off delay period (90, 120, 150 or 180 seconds).
The speed run during this period depends on the
last heat call provided by the thermostat.
If the last call for heat was a call for low heat, the
air circulator motor will run on low heat speed for
the duration of the heat off delay period (90, 120,
150 or 180 seconds).
If the last call for heat was a call for high heat, the
air circulating motor will run on the high heating
speed for thirty (30) seconds and then switch to the
low heating speed for the 

balance 

of the heat off

delay period (60, 90, 120 or 150 seconds).
