Is circuit commanded to
shut down?
Pumpdown circuit
Yes
Yes
No
Unit power up
Circuit is in Off state
No
Run circuit
When the circuit begins to run, the compressor will be started and the EXV, fans,
and other devices will be controlled as needed. The normal circuit status at this
time will be
Run
.
When the circuit is commanded to shut down, a normal shut down of the circuit will
be performed. The circuit status during this time will be
Run:Pumpdown
. After
the shut down is completed, the circuit status will normally be
Off:Cycle Timer
initially
.
When the circuit is in the Off state the EXV is closed, compressor is off, and all fans
are off.
Is circuit is enabled to
start?
Yes
No
The circuit must be enabled before it can run. It may be disabled for several
reasons. When the circuit switch is off, the status will be
