DIGI3U TROUBLESHOOTING/SERVICE CHECKS

Malfunction

Probable Cause

Corrective Action

All thermostats will not call

Loss of 24V ac on R and C

Repair power source

Will not initiate cooling cycle

Controller in Heat mode

Delay prior to changeover

Check to verify O and B jumpers in Heat Pump mode

Correct as needed

Controller in changeover from heat mode

4-minute purge cycle must complete

Cooling calls short cycle

If LAT is installed, going off on low temp indicating flashing power LED light

Check bypass operation/adjust

Air flow too low over evaporator

Check filter and/or correct air flow

Will not initiate a heat call

Controller in Cooling mode

Check bypass operation

Check to verify O and B jumpers in Heat Pump mode

Correct as needed

Controller in changeover from cooling mode

4-minute purge cycle must complete

Heating calls short cycle

If LAT is installed, flashing power LED indicates high limit cutout

Check bypass operation/adjust

Air flow too low over heat exchanger

Check filter and/or correct air flow

Zone damper will not close

Loss of 24 volts to the dampers, TR1 and TR2

Repair power source

No output to damper terminal(s)

Verify thermostats are making a call

Damper incorrectly wired

Correct damper wiring

Emergency Heat does not Work

STAT 1 must make heat call in Emergency Heat

Verify heat call

STAT 2 and STAT 3 can make Emergency heat call after STAT 1

Verify STAT 1

Blower Runs Continually

Fan operation selected on any thermostat

Verify fan switch on all thermostats

Fan relay contacts in controller seized

Replace controller, check 24V AC

BAROMETRIC BYPASS SETUP

a)

Turn off all thermostats.

b)

Turn on Switching Center/Controller and set fan switch to “ON”
position. Allow fan to run for 5 minutes to equalize pressure.
Then make sure all dampers are open by checking for air flow
out of each damper.

c)

By moving counter weight up or down the lever arm, adjust it
so that the damper just wants to start opening.

d)

If the damper cannot be held closed with the counter weight all
the way to the bottom of the lever arm, then hold the damper
shaft, loosen the lever arm from the damper shaft, and rotate the
lever arm farther to the right and retighten.  Repeat Step C.

e)

The barometric bypass damper is now calibrated.

BAROMETRIC BYPASS STARTUP TEST

a)

Have at least half of the zones call for either heating or cooling.

b)

Check to be sure the calling zone dampers are open (air is
flowing).

c)

Verify the bypass damper is open.  Note, the damper may not
fully open.

d)

If the open zones are not noisy, the bypass damper is set.
