Initial Power On

At the initial application of power to the system, the
compressor and the evaporator fans will be in a 4 minute
hold-off cycle and will not start immediately. When there
is a call for

COOLING, the expansion valve (EEV) opens,

then the compressor is started. The compressor will
then run for a minimum of 2 minutes in the “hold-on”
cycle. (This means that the compressor will run for a
minimum of 2 minutes before shutting off even if the box
temperature is met).

The LED alternately displays

BOX TEMPERATURE

and

MODE of operation. On a call for cooling, dLY will

show while the expansion valve is opening. After the
compressor starts the LED will alternately display

BOX

TEMPERATURE and Coo.

On multiple evaporator systems, the MASTER
evaporator will display

BOX TEMPERATURE and Coo.

The SLAVE evaporators will display Coo

only.

When the room thermostat setting is satisfied, and if
the compressor ran for at least 2 minutes, the EEV will
close and the compressor will pumpdown and shut off.
The evaporator fans will continue to run. The LED will
alternately display oFF and

BOX TEMPERATURE.

Start-Up Operation

When the room sensor detects a rise in temperature of
approximately 2°F, and the compressor has been off for
at least 4 minutes, the EEV will open to its last position
then the compressor will start. The valve is then adjusted
as necessary to obtain the setpoint superheat setting.
During this time, the compressor will run for a minimum
2 minutes “hold-on” cycle.

The four minute “

HOLD-OFF” can be bypassed and the

system started immediately by pressing the “

RESET

button on the Beacon II board.
