SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The following describes the sequence of operation of the furnace. Refer
to Figure 1 for component location.
Continuous Blower
Cooling/heating thermostats have a fan switch that has an ON and
AUTO position. In the ON position the thermostat circuit is completed
between terminals R and G. The motor will operate on the speed tap
selected on the Continuous Fan speed Jumper on the control board (HI
COOL, LO COOL, or HEAT pins).
Intermittent Blower - Cooling
Cooling/heating thermostats have a fan switch that has an ON and
AUTO position. In the AUTO position the thermostat circuit is completed
between terminals R and G when there is a call for cooling. The motor
will operate on the speed tap wire that is connected to the HI COOL ter-
minal on the control board. When used with two-stage cooling units, the
motor will operate on the speed tap connected to the LO COOL terminal
when first stage cooling is operating. The motor will operate on the
speed tap connected to the HI COOL terminal when second stage cool-
ing is operating. The fan off setting is fixed at 60 seconds for SEER
enhancement.
Heating Cycle
When the thermostat switch is set on HEAT and the fan is set on AUTO,
and there is a call for heat, a circuit is completed between terminals R
and W of the thermostat. When the proper amount of combustion air is
being provided, the pressure switch will close, the ignition control pro-
vides a 17-second warm-up period, the gas valve then opens, the gas
starts to flow, ignition occurs and the flame sensor begins its sensing
function. The blower motor will energize 30 seconds after the gas valve
opens, if a flame is detected. Normal furnace operation will continue
until the thermostat circuit between R and W is opened, which causes
the ignition system and gas valve to de-energize and the burner flames
to be extinguished. The vent motor will operate for an additional 15 sec-
onds and the blower motor will operate for the amount of time set by the
fan-off delay jumper located on the control board. See Figure 8. The
heating cycle is complete, and ready for the start of the next heating
cycle.
If the flame is not detected within 7 seconds of the gas valve opening,
the gas valve is shut off and a retry operation begins. If the flame is lost
for 2 seconds during the 10-second stabilization period, the gas valve is
shut off and a retry operation begins. During a retry operation, the vent
motor starts a 15 second inter-purge and the ignitor warm-up time is
extended to 27 seconds. If the flame is established for more than 10
seconds after ignition during a retry, the control will clear the ignition
attempt (retry) counter. If three retries occur during a call for heat, the
furnace will shut down for one hour. If at the end of the one hour shut
down there is a call for heat, the furnace will initiate a normal start cycle.
If the problem has not been corrected the furnace will again lockout
after three retries.
A momentary loss of gas supply, flame blowout, or a faulty flame probe
circuit will result in a disruption in the flame and be sensed within 1.0
seconds. The gas valve will de-energize and the control will begin a
recycle operation. A normal ignition sequence will begin after a 15 sec-
ond inter-purge. If during the five recycles the gas supply does not
return, or the fault condition is not corrected the ignition control will lock-
out for 60 minutes.
During burner operation, a momentary loss of power for 50 milliseconds
or longer will de-energize the gas valve. When the power is restored,
the gas valve will remain de-energized and the ignition sequence will
immediately restart.

HOT SURFACE IGNITION SYSTEM
Do not attempt to light this furnace by hand (with a
match or any other means). There may be a potential
shock hazard from the components of the hot surface
ignition system. The furnace can only be lit automatically
by its hot surface ignition system.
