2nD staGe cOOlInG alarm
This alarm output is available for use if desired.  It is 
important to note that in some installations, due to A/C 
system sizing and internal heat load, that the secondary 
(lag) air conditioning unit may be called upon to assist 
the lead air conditioner some of the time.  If this is the 
case, or possibly when additional heat load is added, 
using the 2nd stage cooling alarm will cause nuisance 
alarm conditions.
Note: For units with 2-stage compressors, the dual 
stage cooling alarm activates on cooling Stage 3 
initiation.  Menu Step 23, CoPr, must be set to “2” for 
this to occur, otherwise alarm will activate on cooling 
call Stage 2 causing nuisance alarm.
For installations where it is known that there is 100% 
redundancy (one air conditioning unit can handle 100% 
of the load 100% of the time) use of the 2nd Stage 
Cooling Alarm is a method to issue an alarm signal 
that the lead air conditioner is down (or not delivering 
full capacity) and that the lag air conditioner is now 
operating.
reFrIGerant Pressure alarms
Air conditioners with “J” control module are equipped 
with an alarm relay that is activated upon high or low 
refrigerant pressure lockout conditions.  Connecting 
terminals 2 and 3 from the air conditioner 24V terminal 
block to the matching terminals 2 and 3 on the alarm 
board will allow these alarms to function.
emerGencY ventIlatIOn seQuence
For units with economizers, there are two (2) 
emergency ventilation sequences designed into the 
controller.  Both require the -B alarm board and 
connection of terminals E and F from the air conditioner 
24V terminal block to the matching terminals on the 
alarm board.
Note: The E and F wiring connections at the 24V 
terminal block in the A/C units are different for 
older style EIFM economizers than for newer style 
ECONWMT economizers.  Refer to the appropriate 
Controller Connection diagrams - See Table 1.  
Sequence one requires a refrigerant pressure alarm, 
coupled with high temperature alarm condition No. 1 
(HAL 1 set point).  If both of these conditions occur, 
the economizer in the air conditioner that issued the 
refrigerant alarm will drive open to ventilate the building.
Sequence two (HAL 2 set point) is activated by high 
temperature alarm No. 2, and will initiate even without 
a refrigerant pressure alarm signal.  Both economizers 
will be activated to provide emergency ventilation.  
This strategy help protect against building overheating 
if air conditioner(s) are inoperative for non-pressure 
related reasons (bad compressor, contactor, run 
capacitor, etc.).
