UNIT FLASH CODES
Various flash codes are utilized by the unit control
board (UCB) to aid in troubleshooting. Flash codes are
distinguished by the short on and off cycle used
(approximately 200ms on and 200ms off). To show
normal operation, the control board flashes a 1 second
on, 1 second off "heartbeat" during normal operation.
This is to verify that the UCB is functioning correctly.
Do not confuse this with an error flash code. To prevent
confusion, a 1-flash, flash code is not used.
Alarm condition codes are flashed on the UCB lower
left Red LED, See Figure 16. While the alarm code is
being flashed, it will also be shown by the other LEDs:
lit continuously while the alarm is being flashed. The
total of the continuously lit LEDs equates to the number
of flashes, and is shown in the table. Pressing and
releasing the LAST ERROR button on the UCB can
check the alarm history. The UCB will cycle through the
last five (5) alarms, most recent to oldest, separating
each alarm flash code by approximately 2 seconds. In
all cases, a flashing Green LED will be used to indicate
non-alarm condition.
In some cases, it may be necessary to "zero" the
ASCD for the compressors in order to perform trouble-
shooting. To reset all ASCDs for one cycle, press and
release the UCB TEST/ RESET button once.
Flash codes that do and do not represent alarms are
listed in Table 20.
