A. HVAC Unit/LAT Terminals

 - Connects to HVAC unit

     and Leaving Air Sensor (LAT).
     LV LV: LAT terminals. The LAT monitors the leaving air 

             temperature.
     OAS: Optional Outside Air Sensor for use in Fossil

             Fuel / Dual Fuel applications. Not used in GE.
     W1: First stage heat. When energized (W1 made to

             R), energizes first-stage heat.

     W2: Second stage heat. When energized (W2 made

             to R), energizes second-stage heat.
     G:    Blower. When energized (G made to R), energi-

             zed the indoor blower.
     Y1:  First stage cool. When energized (Y1 made to R),

             energizes first stage cooling.

     Y2:  Second stage cool. When energized (Y2 made to

             R), energizes second stage cooling.
     R:    HVAC unit 24 V power. Powers the Digitract 4

             board and zone thermostats.
     C:    HVAC unit 24V power return.

B.  Thermostat Terminals

 - Connects up to four zone

     thermostats.
     W:   Heat call. When energized (W made to R),

             requests the Digitract 4 to run in heat mode.
     R:    HVAC unit 24V power.
     Y:     Cool call. When energized (Y made to R),

             requests the Digitract 4 to run in cool mode.
     G:    Blower Fan. When energized (G made to R),

             requests the Digitract 4 to turn on the indoor

             blower fan. 

     C:    HVAC unit 24V common.

C. Damper Terminals

 - Connects dampers for up to four

     zones and damper power supply.
    TR1/TR2: 24V ac transformer terminals. This transfor-

             mer powers only the zone dampers. 
     1 1: Zone damper 1.

             When energized, power zone damper 1 closed.
     2 2: Zone damper 2.

             When energized, power zone damper 2 closed.
     3 3: Zone damper 3.

             When energized, power zone damper 3 closed.
     4 4: Zone damper 4.

             When energized, power zone damper 4 closed.

D. Damper Status LEDs

 - On when corresponding zone

     damper is being powered closed.

E: Board Number

 - This number indicates the circuit

     board number and revision. You must know this

     number if conferring with technical support.     

F. Special Function Jumpers

    GE/HP jumper

 - Place on proper pins for desired application.

    O/B jumper

 - For heat pump application only. Place in O or B

    position for proper reversing valve action. Not used in GE.
    

FF fossil fuel jumper

 -Place jumper in FF position to use fossil

    fuel features. Not used in GE.

G. Microcontroller

 - Responsible for activation and control of the

    unit based upon thermostat input.

H. HVAC System Status LEDs

 - Indicates what the DT4U is energiz-

    ing on the HVAC system.
    Y1: Compressor, yellow On when the 1st-stage cool is energized.

    Y2: Compressor, yellow On when the 2nd-stage cool is energized.

    G: Blower, green. On when the indoor blower is energized.

    W1: Heat, red. On when 1st-stage heat is energized.

    W2: Heat, red. On when 2nd-stage heat is energized.

    PWR: Power, orange. On when power at R and C and the power

    Switch is on. Flashing when in Capacity Control cut out mode.

    See Status Lights section, page 6, for further information.

I.  Power Switch

 - When OFF, power from the HVAC unit transform-

    er is disconnected from the Digitract 4 and thermostats. When

    ON, power from the HVAC unit transformer is supplied to the

    Digitract 4 and the zone thermostats.

J. Adjustable Potentiometers

 - For HIGH limit, LO limit, TIME change-

    over and BALANCE POINT (BP). Use these potentiometers to adjust

    limits for a customized job. From factory the settings are 145° high,

    45° low, 15-minute changeover and 33° balance point.
