Reset MAT Table Entries? (MAT.R) — This configuration

allows the user to reset the internally stored MAT learned con-

figuration data back to the default values. The defaults are set

to a linear relationship between the economizer damper posi-

tion and OAT and RAT in the calculation of MAT.
MAT Outside Air Position Default (MAT.D) — This config-

uration is used to calculate MAT when the economizer option

is disabled. The configuration is adjustable from 0 to 100%

outside air. This defines the fixed ventilation position that will

be used to correctly calculate MAT.
Altitude……..In Feet: (ALTI) — The control does not in-

clude a barometric pressure sensor to determine altitude. The

altitude must be defined the calculation of enthalpy and cfm.

The altitude parameter is used to set up a default barometric

pressure for use with calculations. The effect of barometric

pressure in these calculations is not great, but could have an ef-

fect depending on the installed elevation of the unit. If the unit

is installed at a particularly high altitude and enthalpy or cfm

are being calculated, set this configuration to the current

elevation.
Start Up Delay Time (DLAY) — This option delays the unit

from operating after a power reset. The configuration may be

adjusted from 0 to 900 seconds of delay.
TSTAT — Both Heat and Cool (STAT) — This option, if en-

abled, allows both heating and cooling requests to be made at

the same time. If the unit is configured for staged gas heat, and

if a cooling request is initiated (Y1 or Y2), then W1 initiates re-

heat and W2 initiates dehumidification.
Auxiliary Relay Configuration (AUX.R) — This option con-

figures the auxiliary relay on the MBB (RLY11). The function

of this relay is configurable in the following ways:
AUX.R = 0 (Alarm Output) — The relay is used for remote

annunciation of an alarm state.

AUX.R = 1 (Dehum-Reheat) — The relay is used as a dehu-

midification/reheat output.

AUX.R = 2 (Occup. State) — The relay is used to reflect

occupancy. When the control is in occupied mode, the relay

will be ON. When the control is in unoccupied mode, the

relay will be OFF.

AUX.R = 3 (S. Fan State) — The relay is used to reflect the

supply fan commanded state. When the supply fan is on, the

relay will be ON. When the supply fan is off, the relay will

be OFF.

Space Temp Sensor (SPT.S) — If a space temperature sensor

is installed, this configuration should be enabled.
Space Temp Offset Sensor (SP.O.S) — If a space tempera-

ture sensor with a space temperature offset slider is installed

(T56), this configuration should be enabled.
Space Temp Offset Range (SP.O.R) — If a space tempera-

ture offset sensor is installed, it is possible to configure the

range of the slider by adjusting this range configuration.
Return RH Sensor (RRH.S) — If a return air relative humidi-

ty sensor is installed, this configuration should be enabled.
Filter Status Switch Enabled? (FLT.S) — If a filter status

switch is installed, enable this configuration to begin the moni-

toring of the filter status input (Inputs

GEN.I

FLT.S). See

the Dirty Filter Switch section for more details on installation

and operation.

Cooling Control —

When mechanical cooling is required,

the A Series ComfortLink™ control system has the capability

to control the staging of the compressors in several different

ways. Three scroll compressors are used on sizes 020 to 027

and four on sizes 030 to 060. In addition, the ComfortLink

control system supports the use of an optional minimum load

hot gas bypass valve (MLV) that is directly controlled by the

ComfortLink control system. This provides an additional stage

of capacity as well as low load coil freeze protection. The con-

trol also integrates the use of an economizer with the use of

mechanical cooling to allow for the greatest use of free cool-

ing. When both mechanical cooling and the economizer are

being used, the control will use the economizer to provide bet-

ter temperature control and limit the cycling of the compres-

sors. The control also checks on various other operation

parameters in the unit to make sure that safeties are not

exceeded and the compressors are reliably operated.

The A Series ComfortLink™ control system offers two ba-

sic control approaches to mechanical cooling. Constant volume

operation for 2 stages of cooling or VAV operation for multiple

stages of cooling. In addition to these methods of control, the A

Series ComfortLink control offers the ability to run multiple

stages of cooling for either a space temperature sensor or ther-

mostat by controlling the unit to either a low or high cool

supply air set point. The control type Configuration

UNIT

C.TYP) determines the selection of the type of cool-

ing control as well as the method for selecting a cooling mode.

There are either three or four compressors divided among

two refrigeration circuits in the unit. Circuit A always contains

two compressors (A1,A2). Circuit B has either one or two

compressors (B1,B2). There may be a minimum load valve

(MLV), which, if present, is only associated with circuit A. The

decision as to which compressor should be turned on or off is

decided by the compressor’s availability followed by a pre-

ferred staging order.
NOTE: Configuration of the machine control type (C.TYP)

has no effect on whether a unit has a VFD or just a supply fan

installed for static pressure control. No matter what the control

type is, it is possible to run the unit in either CV or VAV mode

provided there are enough stages to accommodate lower air

volumes for VAV operation. Refer to the section on static pres-

sure control for information on how to set up the unit for the

type of supply fan control desired.
SETTING UP THE SYSTEM
Machine Control Type (Configuration

UNIT

C.TYP) —

The most important cooling control configuration is located

under Configuration

UNIT.

This configuration defines the method and control source

responsible for selecting a cooling mode. The configuration

also determines the method by which compressors are staged.

Control types are:
C.TYP = 1 (VAV-RAT) and C.TYP = 2 (VAV-SPT)

Both of these configurations refer to standard VAV opera-

tion. If the control is occupied, the supply fan is run continu-

ously and return-air temperature will be used for both in the

determination of the selection of a cooling mode. VAV-SPT

differs from VAV-RAT only in that during the unoccupied

period, space temperature will be used instead of return-air

temperature to start the fan for ten minutes before the

return-air temperature is allowed to call out any mode.

C.TYP = 3 (TSTAT-MULTI)

This configuration will force the control to monitor the ther-

mostat inputs to make a determination of mode. Unlike tra-

ditional 2-stage thermostat control, the unit is allowed to use

multiple stages of cooling control and perform VAV style

operation. The control will be able to call out a LOW

COOL or a HIGH COOL mode and maintain a low or high

cool supply air set point.

C.TYP = 4 (TSTAT-2 STG)

This configuration will force the control to monitor the ther-

mostat inputs to make a determination of mode.

C.TYP = 5 (SPT-MULTI)

This configuration will force the control to monitor a space

temperature sensor to make a determination of mode. Un-

like traditional 2-stage space temperature control, the unit is

allowed to use multiple stages of cooling control and per-

form VAV style operation. The control will be able to call
