8.10 Sensor Failure Default Operation
8.11 Exiting Active Protection Lock-Out Mode
If the controls sense an externally connected sensor
has failed, the system will enter a fail safe operating
mode and will continue to condition the space
until the sensor can be replaced. A fault code will
be displayed on the EcoNet
TM
Control Center and
Universal Outdoor Control identifying which sensor
has failed. See the table below for the default
operation for a sensor failure.
Exiting an Active Protection Lock-Out mode can
be accomplished by disconnecting electrical
power to both the indoor and outdoor units for 1
minute and then restoring power. Keep in mind
there was a reason for the lock-out, so the fault
code on the Universal Outdoor Control (UODC) or
EcoNet
TM
Control Center should be read to assist
with diagnosing the root cause of the lock-out and
corrective action should be taken to prevent the
system from repeating the lock-out.
