RESETTING ALARM AND TROUBLE CONDITION TRIPS
Manual reset is required to restore smoke detector systems to Nor-
mal operation. For installations using two sensors, the duct smoke 
detector does not differentiate which sensor signals an alarm or 
trouble condition. Check each sensor for Alarm or Trouble status 
(indicated by LED). Clear the condition that has generated the trip 
at this sensor. Then reset the sensor by pressing and holding the re-
set button (on the side) for 2 seconds. Verify that the sensor’s 
Alarm and Trouble LEDs are now off. At the controller, clear its 
Alarm or Trouble state by pressing and holding the manual reset 
button (on the front cover) for 2 seconds. Verify that the control-
ler’s Alarm and Trouble LEDs are now off. Replace all panels.
Troubleshooting
CONTROLLER’S TROUBLE LED IS ON
1. Check the Trouble LED on each sensor connected to the 
controller. If a sensor’s Trouble LED is on, determine the 
cause and make the necessary repairs.
2. Check the wiring between the sensor and the controller. If 
wiring is loose or missing, repair or replace as required.
CONTROLLER’S TROUBLE LED IS FLASHING
1. One or both of the sensors is 100% dirty.
2. Determine which Dirty LED is flashing then clean that sen-
sor assembly as described in the detector cleaning section.
SENSOR’S TROUBLE LED IS ON
1. Check the sensor’s Dirty LED. If it is flashing, the sensor 
is dirty and must be cleaned.
2. Check the sensor’s cover. If it is loose or missing, secure 
the cover to the sensor housing.
3. Replace sensor assembly.
SENSOR’S POWER LED IS OFF
1. Check the controller’s Power LED. If it is off, determine 
why the controller does not have power and make the nec-
essary repairs.
2. Check the wiring between the sensor and the controller. If 
wiring is loose or missing, repair or replace as required.
CONTROLLER’S POWER LED IS OFF
1. Make sure the circuit supplying power to the controller is 
operational. If not, make sure JP2 and JP3 are set correctly 
on the controller before applying power.
2. Verify that power is applied to the controller’s supply 
input terminals. If power is not present, replace or repair 
wiring as required.
REMOTE TEST/RESET STATION’S TROUBLE LED DOES 
NOT FLASH WHEN PERFORMING A DIRTY TEST, BUT 
THE CONTROLLER’S TROUBLE LED DOES
1. Verify that the remote test/station is wired as shown in 
Fig. 48. Repair or replace loose or missing wiring.
2. Configure the sensor dirty test to activate the controller’s 
supervision relay. See “Dirty Sensor Test” on page 34.
SENSOR’S TROUBLE LED IS ON, BUT THE CONTROL-
LER’S TROUBLE LED IS OFF
Remove JP1 on the controller.
PROTECTIVE DEVICES
Compressor Protection
OVERCURRENT
The compressor has internal line-break motor protection.
OVERTEMPERATURE
The compressor has an internal protector to protect it against 
excessively high discharge gas temperatures.
MIXED TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The Mixed Temperature Sensor (MTS) is installed on the return 
side of the unit filter bracket. See Fig. 51.
The switch opens to prevent mechanical cooling operation at low 
return temperatures (below 60°F [+/- 1.5°F]). When the switch is 
open, compressor operation is disabled but indoor fan and econo-
mizer operation may continue.
The switch closes when return air warms to 65°F (+/-1.5°F) allow-
ing compressor operation to resume.

HIGH PRESSURE SWITCH
The system is provided with a high pressure switch mounted on 
the discharge line. The switch is stem-mounted and brazed into the 
discharge tube. Trip setting is 630 psig ± 10 psig (4344 ± 69 kPa) 
when hot. Reset is automatic at 505 psig (3482 kPa).
