TROUBLESHOOTING – ERROR CODES
The units are self diagnostic for safety and convenience when trouble shooting.
If there is a problem with the installation or the unit, it will display a numerical error code on the
remote controller (if installed) or on the 7-Seg LED of the central computer board and section
computer board to communicate the source of the problem.
Consult the following chart for the cause of each error code.
Single Unit
The 7-Seg LED displays the 3-digit error codes one
digit at a time. The remote controller (if installed)
displays the whole 3-digit error code at once.
When the right and/or left combustion section has an
error code, the red lamp next to the 7-Seg LED on the
central computer board will flash to indicate which
combustion section has the error code. Refer to the
above picture.
Example
:
If your unit has the “321” error code (inlet thermistor),
The 7-Seg LED, will flash the 3-digit error code one
digit at a time. The 7-Seg LED will display “3”...
“2”... “1”, and then repeat the 3 digits.
The remote controller, however, will display “321”
on its screen, in its entirety.
Easy-Link
The 7-Seg LED on the PARENT unit displays a 5-digit
number to signify which unit in the Easy-Link system
has the error, and what the error code is. The 7-Seg
LED displays the number one digit at a time.
The remote controller (if installed) displays a 3-digit
number which also signifies which unit has the error,
and what the error code is.
The unit that has the error in an Easy-Link system will
display the error code on its 7-Seg LED in exactly the
same way as if it were only a Single Unit.
When the right and/or left combustion section has an
error code, the red lamp next to the 7-Seg LED on the
central computer board will flash to indicate which
combustion section has the error code. Refer to the
above picture.
Example:
If Unit #2 has the “321” error code (inlet thermistor),
The 7-Seg LED on the PARENT unit will display “3”...
“2”… “1”… “0”… “2”, displaying only one digit at a
time. The first 3 numbers indicate the error code.
The last two numbers indicate that Unit #2 has the
error.
The remote controller, however, will display “232” on
its screen in its entirety. The first “2” indicates that
Unit #2 has the error. The “32” indicates the first two
digits of the “321” error code.
The 7-Seg LED on Unit #2 will display “3”…. “2”…. “1”,
just like in the Single Unit example.
