3.6 PRETRIP
Pretrip is a set of tests run by the control system to check unit operation. It is recommended that a Pretrip is run
prior to loading the refrigerated compartment. It will indicate a failure if one is detected.
A Pretrip can be started at any box temperature. If Pretrip is started while the unit is in a Start-Stop off
cycle the unit will start during the course of the test. If the unit is running when Pretrip is started, it will
shutdown for the first three tests.
If “CAN NOT START PRETRIP” is displayed in the MessageCenter, check to see if the unit is in PC
mode (Refer to Section 5.3.2) or Defrost mode, or check the alarm list (Section 3.15) for active shut-
down alarms.
Pretrip will run until completed, unless an alarm occurs that causes Pretrip to be aborted. Only alarms
that will result in other erroneous alarms or will affect future Pretrip tests will abort Pretrip.
Once Pretrip is started: If the unit is running, the control system will shut the unit down for the initial tests, then start
it again as it proceeds through the tests.
Before completing Pretrip, the control system looks at the status of alarms and if certain alarms are
active, Pretrip will display “FAILED”, indicating that the unit is not ready to be sent out for a load, but
that the alarm list should be checked and all present alarm situations corrected.
1. With the system powered up (START/RUN-OFF switch in the START/RUN position), press the MENU key
