What to do if Carrier Network Router system does not Heat/Cool?
If your Carrier Network Router system does not heat or cool, consider the following: * If a diagnostic code is displayed, check the diagnostic troubleshooting table. * Put the zone manager into "Installation Test" mode and check the unit’s LED to blink rapidly. If the unit’s LED does not blink, configure the unit for the proper zone and re-try "Installation Test". * Select Heat/Cool mode. Adjust the set point to ensure there is a real heating or cooling request. Wait for the unit’s time guard to expire. If the unit does not operate, check the unit for errors. * If the unit does operate, check the Zone Managers programming for scheduling errors.
Why Carrier Network Router has no LCD display even with +12 volts applied?
If your Carrier Network Router's LCD display is not working even with +12 volts applied to the correct CZM terminals, here's what to check: 1. Mis-wiring: Disconnect the power, correct the wiring, and re-cycle power. 2. Power not online: Verify the wiring to the Zone Manager control, then re-cycle the unit power. 3. No 12 volts on +12 and GND of terminal block: Disconnect the power, correct the wiring, and re-cycle power. 4. Zone Manager damage: Verify wiring did not damage the Zone Manager. Change the Zone Manager control and re-cycle power.
