Specifications

Two methods are used to add and relnove stages of cooling
for units with more than one compressor. The first method
causes the unit to operate around its steady-state number of
stages. For example, if the correct number of stages is between
0 and 1, this method wilt cause the first stage to cycle. If the
correct number of stages is between 1 and 2, this method will
cause the second stage to cycle. The second method causes the
unit to find the steady-state nulnber of stages. Details of these
methods are provided below.
The control uses two methods to add a stage of compressor
cooling. The first method will add a stage of cooling when the
Cooling Delnand (Operating Modes _'OOL---_gPT--+
DMD. 0 plus the change in cool delnand (Operating
Modes4DOL_9Pr-+rm).() times the Cool Therlnal Lag
Factor (Operating Modes4DOL---_9PT4_.LA6) is greater
than the SPY Cool Demand (+) Level (Operating Modes_
cOOL _gPr _(_z.PO).

This method is only used after the Compressor Settling
Time ((bnfiguration--_U?_gT--_qAT.I), has been exceeded
and the supply-air temperature is slowly increasing. The sec-
oM method will add a stage of cooling when Cool Demand is
greater than the SPT Cool Delnand (+) Level plus 0.5° F
(DMD.C > (Z.PD + 0.5) and the supply-air telnperature
(Operating Modes_,COOL--_AT--_AI) is changing at a
rate greater than 0.3 ° F per minute.
The control uses two methods to relnove a stage of com-
pressor cooling. The first method will relnove a stage of cool-
ing when the Cooling Demand (Operating Modes4DOL
_gPT_OMO. _) plus the change in cool demand (Operating
Modes4DOL---_qPT_TRD._) times the Cool Therlnal Lag
Factor (Operating Modes_OOL--_7PT_'.LAG) is less
than the SPY Cool Demand @) Level (Operating Modes_
COOL---_gPT4Z.ND).
DMD.C+ fRO.C* C.LAG< (Z.ND
This method is only used after the Compressor Settling
Time (SAT.!), has been exceeded and the supply air tempera-
ture is slowly decreasing. The second method will relnove a
stage of cooling when Cool Demand is less than the SPY Cool

the supply air telnperature (SA!) is changing at a rate less than

OUTDOOR FANS Each unit has a means for variable
outdoor airflow to control condenser pressure control within an
acceptable range by responding to varied operating modes and
alnbient temperatures. This is implemented dift_rently on
different units using multi-speed motors, multiple outdoor tans,
or variable-speed motor controllers.
NOTE: Factory default configurations account for these lnodel
ditthences and should not be changed. The default configura-
tions have been qualified over a lane range of conditions and
are provided in case a field replacement of a control board
occurs and the settings need to be checked or manually config-
ured. Outdoor fan operation is further described below to assist
in troubleshooting.
Units Without Humidi-MiZer TM System The outdoor fan
speed, number, and location for each of three levels is defined
tbr each cooling circuit in the Circuit submenus (Configura-
tion_COOL_CIR.x). Results of the factory configurations
are sho,a_ in Tables 38A-39B. The tan level selected during
operation is based on factory configurations of outdoor
temperature limits and condenser pressure limits. These are in
the Outdoor Fan Control submenu (Configuration--+
COOL _OF O. Initial thn level starts at zero and increments to
level 1when Fan LEV0 Max Pressure limit is reached. Chang-
es between levels 1 to 3 are initially selected based on outdoor
air temperature (OAT) input and the level On and Off tempera-
rare limits. The levels may be further adjusted based on the
circuit saturated condensing temperatures (Tempem-
tures--+REET--_7CT.x) and the level Max and Min pressure
limits.
Units With Humidi-MiZer System Outdoor tan control for
Humidi-MiZer units includes a Motonnaster,_a)variable-speed
control for OFM 1 and OFM4. Contactor OFC 1 controls power
to the Motonnaster control. The Motorlnaster control automat-
icalty adjusts the outdoor thn speed to maintain approximately
80 to 100 F condenser telnperature for circuit A at all outdoor
ambient temperatures. Contactor OFC2 controls the relnaining
two Pans (48/50PG20) or relnaining 4 _ans (48/50PG24 and
28). The tan level operation is detennined by some or all out-
door thn control configurations described above, plus addition-
at Humidilnizer confimlrations ((bnfiguration--->HZMR).
