LNC Line-voltage SPDT relay normally closed contact: Connects
controlled equipment to the line-voltage normally closed
(LNC) contact on the SPDT relay. When LC is closed to LNC,

terminal is not typically wired to the controlled equipment.
BIN Detects a switch closure between the BIN and COM
terminals and manually starts or stops a defrost cycle. This
is now the default behavior for the binary input.
COM Connects the low-voltage common from the sensor and
binary input.
TB3
SEN Connects the low-voltage input signal wire from control
sensors.
