Product manual
The E2 controller consists of 2 electronic board assemblies: E2 power board and control
board. The power board supplies constant DC power to the E2 control board. The E2
control board carries the intelligent chip containing the canned programs. The entire
assembly is pre-installed and wired in the factory on a new unit. Both electronic boards
carry a LED light (refer fig 9 in which the LED on both boards are identified). If the LED lights
are on after power-up of the unit, it indicates normal and proper operation of the electronic
boards. Once these lights are on, the rest of the unit including the compressor is
monitored and digital messages are shown on the diagnostic panel.
Table 01 shows a list of fault detections enabled by E2 controller and diagnostics on ZX
platform CDU. The diagnostics are standard features on the Emerson ZX platform Gold
version.
The table 02 summarizes fault conditions under which the E2 controller initiates “temporary
shutdown—with-auto-restart” and “lock-out trip-condition with- manual-restart”

E2 Fault Detection Items
The E2 control is also designed to apply a ZX
defrost (DF) module. The ZX DF module is a
basic time initiated DF module. The defrost
module is supplied as an optional accessory.
The DF module has two rotary switches by
which the user can set up the defrost duration
and defrost interval. The DF module also
enables a manual defrost as an override to the
rotary switch setting of defrost interval. Figure
11 shows the defrost module
