Component Description and Location
This sensor is one of two dual discharge air sensors. Both return air sensors must agree within specified limits.
The sensor associated with Alarm Code 204 Check Display Discharge Air Sensor is used for temperature display
by the HMI control panel. The sensor is located next to the control discharge air sensor in the discharge air stream.
It is a graded sensor.
Circuit Description
The discharge air temperature sensor circuit is a two wire circuit. The DTRP-01 (+) wire connects the
microprocessor 35 pin sensor connector J3 pin 22 to the blue sensor wire. The DTRN-01 (-) wire connects the
microprocessor 35 pin sensor connector J3 pin 33 to the brown sensor wire. The sensor wires are routed in the
Sensor Harness. The sensor is hard wired to the sensor harness.
Considerations
1. If the unit is controlling on discharge air temperature, and a problem occurs with either discharge air
sensor, the unit will switch to Return Air Control and Alarm Code 11 Unit Controlling on Alternate Sensor
will be set.
2. Sensor codes must be cleared from the Maintenance Menu before Alarm Code 11 will clear.
3. Sensor grades must be correctly set to the actual grade of the sensor installed. Failure to do so may result
in nuisance alarm codes.
4. Sensors should be positioned to minimize the potential for moisture entry where the wires enter the sensor
shell. Wherever possible, mount sensors with the barrel up and the wires down.
How Alarm is Set
1. The sensor is over or under range for a specified time interval. The sensor reading may return to normal.
Only Alarm Code 204 Check Display Discharge Air Sensor is set.
2. The sensor reading is erratic over time but did not go over or under range. Both Alarm Code 204 Check
Display Discharge Air Sensor and Alarm Code 13 Sensor Check are set. This indicates the sensor was
inaccurate but was not over or under range.
3. The sensor grade is set to 5H. Both Alarm Code 204 Check Display Discharge Air Sensor and Alarm Code
92 Sensor Grades Not Set are set.
4. The temperatures of the control return air sensor and display return air sensor are not within a specified
range. Alarm Code 04 Check (Control) Discharge Air Sensor, 204 Check Display Discharge Air Sensor
and 13 Sensor Check are set if the faulty sensor cannot be determined. If the faulty sensor can be
determined, only the alarm code for that sensor and Alarm Code 13 will be set.
