Defrost Temperature
Termination (Jumper) Pins

The DCB as illustrated in figure 28 has valid selections which
are: 30, 60, and 90°F (−1, 16 and 32°C). The shunt
termination pin is factory set at 50°F (10°C). If the
temperature shunt is not installed, the default termination
temperature is 90°F (32°C).

DELAY

Delay Mode

The DCB has a field−selectable function to reduce
occasional sounds that may occur while the unit is cycling in
and out of the defrost mode. When a jumper is installed on
the DELAY pins, the compressor will be cycled off for 30
seconds going in and out of the defrost mode. Units are
shipped with jumper installed on DELAY pins. 

NOTE − The 30 second off cycle is NOT functional when
jumpering the TEST pins on P1.
