2. Check for proper sensor operation.
Disconnect all power sources to control.
a.
Take a temperature reading at the sensor
location, using an accurate thermometer.
b.
Disconnect the sensor from the control.
c.
Use a reliable ohmmeter, to measure the
resistance across the two sensor leads while
the sensor is at the temperature taken in
Step b.
d.
Refer to Figure 15 to verify that the measured
temperature and resistance conform to
established temperature and resistance
values.
e.
If the measured values conform to the values
in Figure 15, proceed to Step 3.
f. If the sensor’s measured resistance value is
substantially different from the expected value
for that temperature, check the sensor wiring.
If sensor wiring is okay, replace the sensor.

3. Check the A419 for proper operation.
a. Perform
Troubleshooting
Steps 1 and 2 before
performing this step.
b. Disconnect the load from the output relay
terminals.
c. Ensure that the Touchpad Lock jumper is
installed, so that the touchpad is unlocked.
d. Reconnect the sensor leads and supply power
to the control.
e. Replace the cover.
f.
Check the control settings for proper values.
g. Press and hold the
MENU
button until Setpoint
appears (occurs in about 2 seconds).
h. Use
the
Up
and
Down
buttons to change the
Setpoint temperature above and below the
current sensor temperature until the output
relay energizes and de-energizes as shown in
Table 4.
If the anti-short cycle delay has a time greater
than 0 minutes, the relay will not energize until
the timed delay has elapsed.
i.
If the output relay does
not
perform as
indicated in Table 4, replace the A419 control.
j.
If proper operation of the A419 control is
verified, reconnect the load and consult the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions for
troubleshooting the controlled equipment.
