Zone Control Panel Jumpers (Heat/Cool Staging)
Heating/Cooling staging jumpers prevent any rapid stag-
ing of the equipment. This section shows the recom-
mended settings for heating/cooling staging temperatures
and explains the temperature differentials for different
equipment configurations. In the diagrams, sine waves in-
dicate which stage operates during the rise and fall of dis-
charge air temperature for the different heating/cooling
staging jumpers. Recommended jumper settings are
shown in bold type.
Heating Staging Temperature Jumper
Heating Staging temperature jumpers are used to set the
temperature at which the 2nd−stage heating equipment
comes ON. Its selections range from 85 − 130 (°F). The set-
ting has a built-in differential of 20°F (except as described
when 140DAS jumper is used).
During operation, when the discharge air temperature falls
below the jumper setpoint, 2nd-stage heating begins. If the
discharge air temperature reaches the differential temper-
ature, 2nd-stage operation ceases and 1st-stage heating
resumes until the temperature again falls below the jumper
set point.
NOTE − For G71MPP and SLP98 furnaces only, the fur-
nace ignition control will automatically adjust firing rate
without a 2nd stage heat demand to match the blower air-
flow (CFM) requested by the Harmony IIIt zoning system.
See Operation with G71MPP and SLP98" on page 26 for
additional information.
Heat Pump (range: 85 − 110°F, recommended: 90). The
maximum discharge air temperature at which the heat
pump/electric heat is allowed to run is fixed at 135°F.

When the zone control system is applied to a heat pump
with electric heat, the electric heat will be staged ON to
maintain the discharge air temperature set by the heating
staging jumper position.
Gas Furnace with 160°F upper limit (range: 100 − 130;
recommended: 120). The maximum discharge air temper-
ature at which the furnace may run is fixed at 160°F.

jumper (range: 100 − 130;

the 140F DAS jumper is in
place (as shown to the
right), the maximum dis-
charge air temperature at
which the furnace may run
is fixed at 140°F. (Note the
140F DAS jumper’s impact
on the differential at 120
and 130 settings):

Cooling Staging Temperature Jumper
Cooling Staging temperature jumpers are used to set the
discharge air temperature at which 2nd−stage cooling
comes on. It is selectable between 50°, 55° and 60°F. A 7
degree total differential is associated with this staging tem-
perature, beginning at the jumper setpoint, and extending
to 7 degrees above the setpoint.
For any jumper setting, if the discharge air should fall to
45°F and any zone still demands cooling, the compressor
will not run leaving only the blower to operate until the dis-
charge air once again rises to 50°F and the 5 minute com-
pressor OFF delay has been satisfied. For this reason, and
to better satisfy latent loads, the jumper recommended
setting is 50.
