f) LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties
The red LED indicates proper control voltage and will remain on unless a control voltage 
problem occurs. At startup a 5 second delay occurs while the board conducts an internal 
timer check. A short beep occurs when the power switch is turned OFF. 
The green LEDs  through 4 energize and sequence from initial startup as listed in the 
table below. Note that the order of the LEDs from the outer edge of the board is , 4, 3, 
. For more information, see "II.B. Sequence of Operation."

Check for harvest problem (stuck HGV or 
relay), hot water entering unit, stuck HM, 
or shorted thermistor.  
Harvest Backup Timer 
(harvest > 0 min. for two 
cycles in a row)
Orange LED marked H TIMER lights up. 
Check for open thermistor, HGV not 
opening, TXV leaking by, low charge, or 
inefficient compressor.

Freeze Timer 
(freeze > specified setting 
for two cycles in a row)
Timer is factory set using 
dip switches 9 & 0
Yellow LED marked F TIMER lights up. 
Check for F/S stuck closed (up), WV 
leaking by, HGV leaking by, TXV not 
feeding properly, low charge, HM not 
bypassing, or inefficient compressor. 
To manually reset the above safeties, press the alarm reset button with the power 
supply on.

Low Voltage 
(9Vac ±5% or less)
Red LED will turn off if voltage protection 
operates.  
The control voltage safeties automatically 
reset when voltage is corrected.
