RRS ECONOMIZER CONTROLLER PARAMETER 
CONFIGURATION FOR 3 THROUGH 6 TON PACK-
AGE UNITS

The  descriptions  in  the  Operation  section  assume  the  RRS
Economizer  Controller  is  configured  for  proper  interaction
with  the  Simplicity  Lite  board  compressor  control  functions.
The lists that follow indicate “factory default” parameter set-
tings; field review of these settings should be made if issues
of compressor control arise.

In the Details > Service > Factory menu location
•   [Equipment Type] setting “Conv RTU”

•   [Thermostat Type] setting “W”

•   [Fan Control Type] setting “Single Speed”

•   Lo Ambient En] setting “No”

In the Details > Control > Compressor >Setup menu 
location
•   [Comp Enable] setting “Yes”

•   [Comp Stages] setting “1”

•   [Cmp Min Off Time] setting “60 sec”

•   [Cmp Min On Time] setting “60 sec”

•   [Comp 1 Lockout] setting “Normal”

•   [Lo Ambient En] setting “No”

NOTE:  

With RRS Economizer Controller usage, the Simplic-

ity Lite [Fan On Delay: Cool] parameter is not effec-
tive  and  must  remain  at  the  default  setting  of  0
seconds.  Simplicity  Lite  operation  of  the  compres-
sor cannot begin until the RRS Economizer Control-
ler  boot-up  sequence  is  completed  and  the  [Cmp
Min  Off  Time]  timer  expires  (approximately  1  min-
ute, 16 seconds after power is applied to the RRS
Economizer  Controller).  In  situations  where  the
indoor fan cycles with cooling operation and the unit
is powered-up; operation of the compressor cannot
begin  until  the  Simplicity  Lite  compressor  ASCD
expires,  the  RRS  Economizer  Controller  boot-up
sequence is completed and the [Cmp Min Off Time]
timer  expires  (a  total  minimum  of  approximately  6
minutes,  16  seconds  after  power  is  applied  to  the
unit).  If  Y1  thermostat  input  is  present,  Simplicity
Lite will display flash code 11 during the RRS Econ-
omizer  Controller  boot-up  sequence  and  the  [Cmp
Min Off Time] timer period.

The  descriptions  in  the  Operation  section  also  assume  the
RRS  Economizer  Controller  is  configured  properly  for  the
economizer accessory used in 3 through 6 ton package units.
The lists that follow indicate “factory default” parameter set-
tings; field review of these settings should be made if issues
of economizer control arise.

In the Details > Service > Factory menu location.
•   [Fresh Air Enable] setting “Off”

[Damper Min Value] setting “2 V”
•   [Feedback Min Value] setting “2 V”

Additional configuration of the RRS Economizer Controller is
dependent on the options, features and functions desired for
the application. Configuration of the associated parameters is
described in the Operation section.

OPERATION

The RRS Economizer Controller provides minimum position
ventilation and free cooling functions through direct control of
the  economizer  actuator.  Coordination  of  the  compressor,
optional  power  exhaust  and  remote  alarm  indication  is  pro-
vided through contact switching.

The RRS Economizer Controller is powered with unit indoor
blower operation; there is output from the Simplicity Lite G pin
so 24 volts AC power is present to the RRS Economizer Con-
troller  C  and  R  pins.  All  outputs  end  and  the  spring-return
actuator utilized in economizer accessories returns to the OA
damper fully closed / RA damper fully open whenever power
is removed from the controller.

The RRS Economizer Controller monitors the voltage applied
to the C and R pins:
