RRS Economizer Controller Quick Start Guide

3

Intended to be used with field-built remote alarm indication, a
dry contact between the ALM and ALMCOM terminals at the
lower  edge  of  the  RRS  Economizer  Controller  closes  when
Alarms are active. The contact is rated at 12 amps for circuits
of 125 volts AC or less.

The  USB  port  at  the  upper  edge  of  the  RRS  Economizer
Controller is for connection of a flash drive (or “thumb drive”)
used  with  several  functions  in  the  “Update”  section  of  the
parameter menu.

The LEDs at the center-left of the RRS Economizer Controller
indicate as follows:

POWER (green) 

- Is lit whenever 24 volts AC power is 

present to the RRS Economizer Controller C and R pins.

FAULT (red)

 - Is lit, then flashes during the boot-up 

sequence of the RRS Economizer Controller. Will not be 
lit when there are no Alarms active. Will double-flash/
pause continuously when Alarms are active.

SA BUS (green)

 - Will not be lit (has no function in the 

BASIC model of the RRS Economizer Controller used 
with field-installed economizer accessories for 3 through 
6 ton units).

Technicians access the control parameters of the RRS Econ-
omizer Controller through the four buttons and display in the
center of the controller.

RRS ECONOMIZER CONTROLLER BOOT-UP 
SEQUENCE

The  RRS  Economizer  Controller  boot-up  sequence  begins
when unit indoor blower operation is initiated; there is output
from the Simplicity Lite G pin so 24 volts AC power is present
to the RRS Economizer Controller C and R pins. A boot-up
sequence  will  also  begin  at  the  completion  of  the  firmware
update process and restore process.

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 compressor
cannot  begin  until  the  RRS  Economizer  Controller
boot-up  sequence  is  completed  and  the  [Cmp  Min
Off Time] timer expires (approximately 1 minute, 16
seconds  after  power  is  applied  to  the  RRS  Econo-
mizer Controller). In situations where the indoor fan
cycles  with  cooling  operation  and  the  unit  is  pow-
ered-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 sec-
onds after power is applied to the unit). If Y1 thermo-
stat input is present, Simplicity Lite will display flash
code 11 during the RRS Economizer Controller boot-
up  sequence  and  the  [Cmp  Min  Off  Time]  timer
period.

RRS ECONOMIZER CONTROLLER PARAMETER 
MENU NAVIGATION

Level 0 of the parameter menu, where either a blank screen
is shown or active Alarm(s) are shown in 20-second intervals,
is displayed following:

The boot-up sequence

45 minutes of menu navigation inactivity

Multiple presses of the esc (cancel) button

FIGURE 4 - 

Main Menu

From Level 0 of the parameter menu, navigation to Level 1 of
the menu is done with a press of the 

 (scroll up) 

 (scroll

down) or 

 (enter) button.

Presses  of  the 

  (scroll  up)  and 

  (scroll  down)  buttons

move  the  >  cursor  and  scroll  through  the  selections  in  the
section of the parameter menu at the current navigation level.
(Level 1 shown in the illustration 

above

)

Each  press  of  the 

(enter)  button  navigates  to  the  next

(higher numbered in the “RRS Economizer Controller Menu
Guide”) navigation level.

In the example illustrated above: With the > cursor at the nav-
igation Level 1 Details selection, a press of the 

(enter) but-

ton navigates to the Details section, navigation Level 2 of the
parameter menu.

Again, presses of the 

 (scroll up) and 

 (scroll down) but-

tons  move  the  >  cursor  and  scroll  through  the  selections  in
the section of the parameter menu at the current navigation
level.
