SEQUENCE OF OPERATION – SINGLE-STAGE COM-
PRESSOR 
NOTE - The combustion air inducer is energized for 30 
seconds at a Y1 call for cooling to clear warm humid air 
out of the heat exchanger. 
Cooling 
1 -   Internal thermostat wiring energizes terminal ”O” by 
cooling mode selection, energizing reversing valve 
L1. 
2 -   Cooling demand initiates at Y1 in the indoor 
thermostat. 
3 -   24VAC  from  Y1  energizes  compressor  contactor 
K1. 
4 -   K1-1 closes energizing compressor B1 and outdoor 
fan motor B4. 
5 -   Compressor B1 and outdoor fan B4 begin immediate 
operation. 
6 -  6- Evaporator blower B3 begins operation. 
7 -   When cool demand is satised,  ”Y1”  in the indoor 
thermostat de-energizes K1 contactor. K1-1 opens 
de-energizing compressor B1 and outdoor fan 
B4.  Evaporator  blower  B3  de-energizes  after  90 
seconds of time delay. 
8 -   Terminal  ”O”  is  de-energized  when  internal 
thermostat is out of cool mode, de-energizing 
reversing valve L1. 
First Stage Heat Pump 
1 -  Heating demand initiates at ”Y1” in the thermostat. 
2 -  24VAC energizes compressor contactor K1. 
3 -   K1-1 closes energizing compressor B1 and outdoor 
fan B4. 
4 -  Evaporator blower B3 energizes after 5 seconds. 
5 -   When  heat  demand  is  satised,  Y1  in  the  indoor 
thermostat de-energizes K1. K1-1 and K1-2 open 
and deenergizes compressor B1 and outdoor fan 
B4. 
6 -   Evaporator blower B3 de-energizes after 90 
seconds. 
Second Stage Auxiliary Heat 
1 -   Heating demand initiates at ”Y1” and ”W” in the 
thermostat. ”W” can either be strip heat in a HP unit 
or gas burners in a DF unit. 
Emergency Heat 
1 -   Emergency heat is energized by the room thermostat 
through ”W”. 
Defrost Mode 
1 -   During heating operation when liquid line 
temperature drops to 42F or lower defrost switch S6 
closes. 
2 -   Defrost  control  CMC1  begins  timing.  If  defrost 
thermostat S6 remains closed at the end of 30, 60 
or 90 minute period, defrost control energizes and 
defrost begins 
NOTE - On early defrost controls, the defrost timing jump-
er must be in the 90-minute defrost interval before testing 
the defrost mode or the control will not enter defrost test 
mode. 
3 -   During defrost CMC1 energizes the reversing valve 
L1  and  de-energizes  the  outdoor  fan  B4.  If  the 
compressor delay jumper is set, the compressor 
will turn o for 30 seconds while the reversing valve 
shifts either in or out of defrost mode. 
4 -   Defrost continues for 10 minutes or until defrost 
thermostat  switch  S6  opens  (S6  will  open  when 
liquid line temperature reaches 70°). When defrost 
thermostat  switch  opens,  defrost  control  CMC1 
loses power and resets. 
5 -   When  CMC1  resets,  reversing  valve  L1  is  de-
energized while outdoor fan B4 is energized. 
Gas Heat 
1 -   Heating demand W1 initiates at the indoor 
thermostat. 
2 -   Assuming all safety circuits are closed (with the 
exception of the pressure-prove switch open), A3 
energizes  the  combustion  air  inducer  blower  B6. 
When  the  N.O.  combustion  air  inducer  pressure-
prove switch S18 closes, a pre-purge period of 30 
seconds follows. 
3 -   Ignition control A3 begins spark and energizes gas 
valve GV1. 
4 -   Gas  valve  GV1  opens.  When  ame  is  sensed, 
spark stops. 
5 -   After 30 seconds, ignition control A3 energizes 
circulating air blower B3. 
6 -   When  heat  demand  is  satised,  the  indoor 
thermostat de-energizes control A3 which de-
energizes  gas  valve  GV1  and  combustion  air 
inducer  blower  B6.  Circulating  air  blower  B3  runs 
for a designated period of 90 seconds. 
SEQUENCE  OF  OPERATION  –  TWO-STAGE  COM-
PRESSOR 
The two−stage scroll compressor operates much like the 
standard  scroll  compressor.  The  two−stage  compressor 
steps between low capacity and high capacity as required 
to meet cooling demand. The steps occur when gas is 
bypassed through a vent port in the rst suction pocket. 
This bypassing of gas allows the compressor to operate 
at low capacity if thermostat demand allows, creating a 
more cost eective and ecient compressor. Full capacity 
is achieved by blocking the vent port with a slider ring. 
The slider ring (vent port cover) is controlled by a 24VDC 
internal solenoid in the open position allowing low capaci-
ty. When energized the internal solenoid closes the slider 
ring, blocking the vent port and bringing the compressor 
to full capacity. 
Stepping can occur during a single thermostat demand as 
the motor runs continuously while the compressor steps 
from low to full capacity.
