The module board will then check for flame sense to verify successful lighting of the main burner flame. Sparking of the igniter is then
terminated. The gas valve and blower outputs will remain energized.
If ignition is successful the module board will monitor the flame sense, sail switch, and the limit switch circuits. The flame is sensed through
the spark wire and electrode therefore, it is essential that the electrode is properly positioned in the burner flame.
3 try Ignition Board
If the flame is NOT sensed after seven (7) seconds, or if the unit fails to ignite, a second fifteen (15) purge cycle will begin followed by
second trial for ignition sequence. After three (3) trial for ignition attempts with no ignition of the main burner, the module board will de-
energize the gas valve immediately and the blower will run for three (3) minutes and then go into lockout mode.
2 nd Stage Heating
If during the thermostat cycle the demand for heat drops below the second stage thermostat setting ( 3 to 5 degrees variance depending
on thermostat manufacturer), the blower speed control board will be energized. The blower speed control board will energize the additional
gas valve solenoid and increase motor speed to the high position. Furnace will remain in the second stage operation until thermostat is
satisfied.
90 Second Shut Down
When the thermostat has reached its set point and the demand for heat ends, the gas valve will be de-energized and the flame will go
out. The post combustion purge period of 90 seconds begins. When it times out, the blower motor output is removed, and the blower
stops.
