Compressor Drive
Troubleshooting
The variable-speed compressor drive includes internal
protection functions that limit the compressor operation,
or in some cases, disable compressor operation
completely. In an event occurs that causes the compressor
operation to shut down, the compressor drive sends a
binary signal to the VSPD WSHP UC400 controller and a
diagnostic is generated. Refer to
Table 59, p. 61
for the
correct DIP switch settings for each unit.The DIP switches
are located on the interface module located in the
compressor drive assembly.
