Safety Features

Safety Features – CXM Control

The safety features below are provided to protect the

compressor, heat exchangers, wiring and other components

from damage caused by operation outside of design

conditions.

Anti-short cycle protection: The control features a 5

minute anti-short cycle protection for the compressor.

Note: The 5 minute anti-short cycle also occurs at

power up.

Random start: The control features a random start upon

power up of 5-80 seconds.

Fault Retry: In Fault Retry mode, the Status LED begins

slowly flashing to signal that the control is trying to recover

from a fault input. The control will stage off the outputs and

then “try again” to satisfy the thermostat input call. Once the

thermostat input call is satisfied, the control will continue on

as if no fault occurred. If 3 consecutive faults occur without

satisfying the thermostat input call, the control will go into

“lockout” mode. The last fault causing the lockout will be

stored in memory and can be viewed by going into test mode

(CXM board). Note: FP1/FP2 faults are factory set at only

one try.

Lockout: In lockout mode, the status LED will begin fast

flashing. The compressor relay is turned off immediately.

Lockout mode can be “soft” reset by turning off the

thermostat (or satisfying the call). A “soft” reset keeps

the fault in memory but resets the control. A “hard” reset

(disconnecting power to the control) resets the control and

erases fault memory.

Lockout with emergency heat: While in lockout mode, if W

becomes active (CXM), emergency heat mode will occur.

High pressure switch: When the high pressure switch

opens due to high refrigerant pressures, the compressor

relay is de-energized immediately since the high pressure

switch is in series with the compressor contactor coil. The

high pressure fault recognition is immediate (does not

delay for 30 continuous seconds before de-energizing the

compressor).

High pressure lockout code = 2

Example: 2 quick flashes, 10 sec pause, 2 quick flashes, 10

sec. pause, etc.

Low pressure switch: The low pressure switch must be open

and remain open for 30 continuous seconds during “on”

cycle to be recognized as a low pressure fault. If the low

pressure switch is open for 30 seconds prior to compressor

power up it will be considered a low pressure (loss of

charge) fault. The low pressure switch input is bypassed for

the initial 120 seconds of a compressor

run cycle.

Low pressure lockout code = 3

Water coil low temperature (FP1): The FP1 thermistor

temperature must be below the selected low temperature

limit setting for 30 continuous seconds during a compressor

run cycle to be recognized as a FP1 fault. The FP1 input is

bypassed for the initial 120 seconds of a compressor run

cycle. FP1 is set at the factory for one try. Therefore, the

control will go into lockout mode once the FP1 fault has

occurred.

FP1 lockout code = 4

Air coil low temperature (FP2): The FP2 thermistor

temperature must be below the selected low temperature

limit setting for 30 continuous seconds during a compressor

run cycle to be recognized as a FP2 fault. The FP2 input

is bypassed for the initial 60 seconds of a compressor run

cycle. FP2 is set at the factory for one try. Therefore, the

control will go into lockout mode once the FP2 fault has

occurred.

FP2 lockout code = 5

Condensate overflow: The condensate overflow sensor

must sense overflow level for 30 continuous seconds to

be recognized as a CO fault. Condensate overflow will be

monitored at all times.

CO lockout code = 6

Over/under voltage shutdown: An over/under voltage

condition exists when the control voltage is outside the range

of 19VAC to 30VAC. Over/under voltage shut down is a

self-resetting safety. If the voltage comes back within range

for at least 0.5 seconds, normal operation is restored. This is

not considered a fault or lockout. If the CXM is in over/under

voltage shutdown for 15 minutes, the alarm relay will close.

Over/under voltage shut down code = 7
