FLASH

SIMULTANEOUS FAST

FLASH

Normal operation − signaled when heating demand initiated at thermostat.

SLOW FLASH

ON

Primary or Secondary limit open. Units with board 12L42: Limit must close within
5 trials for ignition or board goes into one hour limit Watchguard. Units with board

56L85: Limit must close within 3 minutes or board goes into one hour limit Watch-

guard.

OFF

SLOW FLASH

Pressure switch open or has opened 5 times during a single call for heat; OR:

Blocked inlet/exhaust vent; OR: Condensate line blocked; OR: Pressure switch

closed prior to activation of combustion air blower.

ALTERNATING SLOW

FLASH
