(ConfigurationHEATFOD.G) unless power is reset to the

control.
A light emitting diode (LED) is provided on the IGC to indicate
status. During normal operation the LED is continuously on. See

the Troubleshooting section if the LED is off or flashing. The IGC
is located behind the gas section access panel door. See Figure 8 or

9 for location.
The 48/50PD unit control will switch automatically between
cooling and heating to maintain space temperature. To minimize

unnecessary changes there is a 10 minute Mode Select Timeguard

(Operating ModesHEATMS.TG) after the last stage of

cooling turns off and before the heating is allowed.
The unit tries to maintain the space temperature at the Occupied
Heat Setpoint (SetpointOHSP) or the Unoccupied Heat Setpoint

(SetpointUHSP). See the Occupancy Determination section for

factors

that

affect

the

Currently

Occupied

(Run

StatusVIEWOCC) parameter. Heating Demand (Operating

ModesHEATSPTDMD.H) is equal to the occupied or

unoccupied set point minus the Space Temperature (Operating

ModesHEATSPTSPT) [DMD.H = Setpoint -- SPT].
Two methods are used to add and remove stages of heating for

48PD units. The first method causes the unit to operate around its
steady state number of stages. For example, if the correct number

of stages is between 0 and 1, this method will cause the first stage

to cycle. If the correct number of stages is between 1 and 2, this
method will cause the second stage to cycle. The second method

causes the unit to find the steady--state number of stages. Details of
these methods are provided below.
The control uses two methods to add a stage of heating. The first

method will add a stage of heating when the Heating Demand

(Operating ModesHEATSPTDMD.H) plus the change in

Spacetemp Trend (Operating ModesHEATSPTTRND)

times

the

Heat

Thermal

Lag

Factor

(Operating

ModesHEATSPTH.LAG) is greater than the SPT Heat

Demand (+) Level (Operating ModesHEATSPTHT.PD)

[DMD.H + change TRND * H.LAG > HT.PD].
The second method will add a stage of heating when Heat Demand

(Operating ModesHEATSPTDMD.H) is greater that the

SPT

Heat

Demand

(+)

Level

(Operating

ModesHEATSPTHT.PD) plus 0.5 degrees F [DMD.H >

HT.PD + 0.5] and the heat demand is changing at a rate greater

than 0.3 degrees F per minute.
The control uses two methods to remove a stage of heating. The

first method will remove a stage of heating when the Heating
Demand (Operating ModesHEATSPTDMD.H) plus the

change

in

Spacetemp

Trend

(Operating

ModesHEATSPTTRND) times the Heat Thermal Lag

Factor (Operating ModesHEATSPTH.LAG) is less than

the

SPT

Heat

Demand

(--)

Level

(Operating

ModesHEATSPTHT.ND) [DMD.H + change TRND *

H.LAG < HT.ND].
The second method will remove a stage of heating when Heat

Demand (Operating ModesHEATSPTDMD.H) is less that

the

SPT

Heat

Demand

(--)

Level

(Operating

ModesHEATSPTHT.ND) minus 0.5 degrees F [DMD.H <

HT.PD -- 0.5] and the heat demand is changing at a rate greater
than 0.3 degrees F per minute.

Supply--Air Temperature Sensor (SAT)
The

SAT

Heat

Mode

Sensing

(ConfigurationHEATSATSAT.H) affects the Supply Air

Temperature (TemperaturesAIR.TSAT) value displayed. This

configuration is accessible via the Scrolling Marquee on the SAT
Heat Mode Sensing (ConfigurationHEATSATSAT.H).
When

the

SAT

Heat

Mode

Sensing

(ConfigurationHEATSATSAT.H) =DSBL, the Supply Air

Temperature

(TemperaturesAIR.TSAT) value on the

Scrolling Marquee and the CCN tables will be forced to zero when
heat outputs come ON and for 5 minutes after. The default Supply

Air Temperature (TemperaturesAIR.TSAT) location is at the

fan inlet, upstream of the heat section.
When

the

SAT

Heat

Mode

Sensing

(ConfigurationHEATSATSAT.H) =ENBL, the Supply Air

Temperature (TemperaturesAIR.TSAT) sensor reading is

displayed at the Scrolling Marquee and the CCN tables during
heating mode. This setting should only be used if the original SAT

sensor wires are removed from the Main Base Board (MBB) and

replaced by an accessory SAT sensor located in the supply duct
downstream of the heat section. There are then two supply air

temperature limits that become active, the Maximum SAT Lower
Level (ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.L) the Maximum

SAT Upper Level (ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.U).

Any time the supply air temperature rises above the Maximum
SAT Lower Level (ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.L) the

heat staging will be limited to what is currently on and no
additional stages can be added until the supply air temperature falls

below

the

Maximum

SAT

Lower

Level

(ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.L).

If the supply air

temperature rises above the Maximum SAT Upper Level

(ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.U), then heating will be

reduced by removing a heat stage. That stage can not be added

again

until

the

Supply

Air

Temperature

(TemperaturesAIR.TSAT) falls below the Maximum SAT

Lower Level (ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.L). If the

supply air temperature stays above the Maximum SAT Upper
Level (ConfigurationHEATSATSAM.U), then another

stage will be removed after the Heat Stage Decrease Time

(ConfigurationHEATH.DEC).
In heating mode the PD control will maintain the Occupied Heat

Set Point (SetpointOHSP) or the Unoccupied Heat Set Point

(SetpointUHSP) by turning on or off the Stage 1 and Stage 2

Gas

(ConfigurationUNITFS.MN).
When the space temperature sensor detects the space temperature

below the Occupied Heat Set Point (SetpointOHSP) or

Unoccupied Heat Set Point (SetpointUHSP) and power is sent

to the Integrated Gas Unit Controller (IGC) board. The heat
staging is determined as described above and the Integrated Gas

Controller (IGC) initiates the gas heat module start--up.
Gas Heat Start--Up
An LED (light-emitting diode) on the IGC board will be on during
normal operation. A check is made to ensure that the rollout switch

and limit switch are closed and the induced--draft motor is running.

The induced-draft motor is then energized, and when speed is
proven with the Hall Effect sensor on the motor, the ignition

activation period begins. The burners will ignite within 5 seconds.
If the burners do not light, there is a 22-second delay before

another 5-second attempt. If the burners still do not light, this

sequence is repeated for 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes have
elapsed, if the burners still have not lit, heating is locked out.

When ignition occurs the IGC board will continue to monitor the
condition of the rollout and limit switches, the Hall Effect sensor,

as well as the flame sensor. If for some reason the over temperature
limit opens prior to the start of the indoor fan blower, on the next

attempt, the 45-second delay will be shortened to 5 seconds less

than the time from initiation of heat to when the limit tripped. Gas
