Troubleshooting: Fan board operating sequence
Action System Response
Continuous circulating fan is connected.
(Optional connectors are available for
separate circulating fan speed tap.)
Circulating fan is energized at low speed when there is no call for heat,
cool or fan.
If fan operation is required by a call for heat, cool, or fan, the ST9103A
switches off the continuous fan speed tap before energizing the other fan
speed.
Electronic air cleaner is connected.
(Optional connectors are available for
120 Vac electronic air cleaner.)
Electronic air cleaner (EAC) connections are energized when the heat or
cool speed of the circulating fan is energized. EAC connections are not
energized when the optional continuous fan terminal is energized.
Humidity control is connected.
(Optional connectors are available for
120 Vac humidifier.)
Humidifier connections are energized when the burner motor is energized.
Troubleshooting: Burner fails to start.
