de-energizes the induced draft motor (if flame is not present) to 
attempt to open the pressure switch to de-energize the gas 
valve. If the pilot or main gas valve is still sensed as energized 
after the inducer has been off for 5 seconds, the control re-
energizes the inducer to attempt to vent the unburned gas. In 
either case, the control enters a hard lockout flashing “9” on the 
LED. If the pilot or main valve becomes Un-Welded the inducer 
will de-energize, but the control will remain in a hard lockout 
and not respond to any thermostat demands.
The only way to recover from a hard lockout is to remove and 
then reapply 24VAC power to the control board.
Flame Sense Circuit Failure
If the control detects an internal hardware failure in the flame 
sense circuit, it shuts off all outputs and enters a hard lockout 
flashing “10” on the LED. The control will not respond to 
thermostat demands during a hard lockout. 
The only way to recover from a hard lockout is to remove and 
then reapply 24VAC power to the control. If problem persist 
after removal and reapplication of 24VAC power, the board may 
need to be replaced.
Safety Controls
The control circuit includes the following safety controls:
1. Limit Switch (LS) - This control is located inside the heat 
exchanger compartment and is set to open at the 
temperature indicated in the Temperature Controls Table 
of the unit wiring diagram. It resets automatically. The limit 
switch operates when a high temperature condition caused 
by inadequate supply air flow occurs, thus shutting down 
the ignition control and closing the main gas valve and 
energizing the blower.
2. Pressure Switch (PS) - If the draft motor should fail, the 
pressure switch prevents the ignition controls and gas 
valves from being energized.
3. Flame Sensor - The flame sensor and controls are located 
per Proper Flame Adjustment Figure 19. If an ignition 
control fails to detect a signal from the flame sensor 
indicating the pilot flame is properly ignited, then the main 
gas valve will not open.
4. Rollout Switch (RS) - This switch is located in the burner 
vestibule. In the event of a sustained main burner flame 
rollout, it shuts off the ignition control and closes the main 
gas valve.
NOTE:  The manual reset Rollout Switch (RS) must be reset 
before allowing furnace operation.
5. Auxiliary Limit Switch (ALS) - This control is located 
inside the heat exchanger compartment and is set to open 
at 160°F. It is a manual reset switch. If ALS trips, then the 
primary limit (LS) has not functioned correctly. Replace the 
primary limit LS.
Cooling Sequence Of Operations
When the thermostat calls for first-stage cooling, the thermostat 
terminals G and Y1 energize, signaling the compressor, indoor 
blower and outdoor fan to operate. The indoor blower will operate 
according to the fan delay profile selected using Table 17.
When the thermostat calls for second-stage cooling the 
thermostat terminal Y2 energizes, signaling the compressor 
bypass ports to close and the indoor blower to increase speed. 
If the outdoor fan motor has an ECM controller, Y2 will also 
signal the motor to increase speed.
When the thermostat is satisfied, terminals G, Y1 and Y2 are 
de-energized, thus stopping operation of the compressor and 
outdoor fan. The indoor blower will remain on according to the 
fan delay profile selected using Table 17.
Safety Controls
The control circuit includes the following safety controls:
1.  High Pressure Switch (HP)- This switch protects against 
excessive discharge pressures due to a blocked 
condenser coil or a condenser motor failure (opens at 625 
± 25 psig and resets at 500 ± 25 psig).
2. Low Pressure Switch (LP)- This switch protects against 
loss of refrigerant charge (opens at 7 ± 3 psig and resets at 
22 ± 5 psig).
The above pressure switches are specifically designed to 
operate with R-410A systems. R-22 pressure switches must not 
be used as replacements for the R-410A pressure switches.
