TEC-EYE Hand-Held Service Tool
The TEC-EYE service tool is used to communicate
with the MEGA-TEC unit logic board. By connecting
directly to the logic board inside the unit control
panel, it is possible to perform diagnostics on the unit,
adjust certain settings and verify unit and economizer
operation through a run test procedure. The TEC-EYE
service tool is required for unit setup and operation.
The TEC-EYE is supplied with the LC6000 controller
but can also be ordered separately (Bard P/N 8301-
059).
The menu driven interface provides users the ability
to scroll through two menu levels: Quick Menu and
Main Menu. The menus permit the user to easily view,
control and configure the unit. See Figure 1 for TECEYE display and key functions.
The controller is completely programmed at the factory;
the default setpoints and their ranges are easily viewed
and adjusted from the TEC-EYE display. The program
and operating parameters are permanently stored on
FLASH-MEMORY in case of power failure.
The TEC-EYE connects to the wall-mount unit control
board via an RJ11 modular phone connector as shown
in Figure 2.

FIGURE 12
Adjusting Return Air Temperature Sensor
FIGURE 11
Changing Zone
Temperature Control
Temperature Control Components
Return Air Temperature Sensor
The unit is equipped with a return air temperature
sensor to monitor the space temperature when the unit
is in orphan mode. The return air sensor is located
in the upper part of the return opening in such a way
that it is exposed to the entering airstream. An alarm
signal will be sent to the LC controller if the return air
temperature sensor is disconnected. The temperature is
measured with a 10k ohm NTC thermistor.
Return Air Temperature Alarm
When the return air temperature sensor value is out of
range (-41.0 to 303.0°F), the controller will generate
a sensor failure alarm to indicate the sensor is not
working properly.
This alarm is fixed and cannot be adjusted.
Temperature Control Operation
The unit utilizes differentials while in orphan mode to
control the space temperature. The differential values
all reference the setpoint therefore allowing the control
band to be easily changed using the setpoint. To change
specific staging characteristics, each differential can
be modified individually. There are separate setpoints
and differentials for cooling and heating. Specific to
the cooling differentials, the economizer will always be
utilized first on a cooling call unless outdoor conditions
are not acceptable for free cooling. In this case, the
compressor will be activated at stage 1 in place of the
economizer. All remaining stages will be shifted until
the economizer becomes available again.
Manual 2100-671

To change or view the unit setpoint:
1. From the Status screen, press UP or DOWN key
until Quick Menu displays Setpoints icon ( ).
Press ENTER key.
2. Press ENTER key to scroll to CoolSetpoint or Heat Setpoint (see Figure 4 on page 8).
3. Press UP or DOWN keys to change the value to
desired heating and/or cooling setpoint.
Orphan Mode
MEGA-TEC Series wall-mount units have the capability
to run without the LC6000 controller attached—this
feature is called orphan mode. This keeps the shelter
between 60°F and 77°F (factory default settings) by
the use of the factory-installed return air sensor in
each wall-mount unit. In orphan mode, no auxiliary
temperature measurement devices are required for
operation. The wall-mount unit automatically uses a
continuous blower setting to circulate room air into
the return air inlet and uses the return air temperature
sensor to control room temperature.
If at any time the wall-mount unit(s) loses
communication with the LC6000 controller, the wallmount unit(s) will go into orphan mode and operate
using the last communicated setpoints.
To change default setpoints, refer to Setpoints on page 8.
During installation, the ability to run in orphan mode
allows deactivation of one of the existing, older wallmount units, while keeping the shelter cool with the
other unit still operating. Once the first of the Bard
wall-mount units is installed and powered on, it will
operate in orphan mode—keeping the climate inside
the shelter stable and the installers comfortable while
the remainder of the older equipment is removed and
the remaining Bard wall-mount units and LC6000
controller are installed.
Additionally, should any or all of the MEGA-TEC Series
wall-mount units lose communication with the LC6000
controller (such as during maintenance), they will
continue to serve the shelter’s needs until a repair can
be made.
LC6000 Control
When the unit is connected to a LC6000 supervisory
controller, the cooling and heating stages will be
controlled by the LC6000. For more information on
LC6000 staging, see latest version of LC6000 Service
Instructions 2100-669.
Cooling (with Economizer)
If equipped with an economizer, the unit is equipped
with 1 stage of free cooling and 3 stages of mechanical
cooling for a total of 4 cooling stages (see Figure 13).
Cooling (without Economizer)
In a situation where the unit is either not equipped
with an economizer or is equipped with an economizer
but the outdoor conditions are not favorable for
economizer operation, the staging will use Stage 1, 2
or 3 differentials (see Figure 14 on page 14).
Heating
The unit can be equipped with 0, 1 or 2 stages of
electric heat (see Figure 15 on page 14).
The electronic expansion valve is a stepper motor that
is controlled with a step output from the controller. The
valve is capable of 480 steps represented by a 0-100%
signal on the controller. The motor drives a needle valve
that regulates the flow of refrigerant.
EEV Instructions for Vacuum, Reclaim, Charge Unit
The electronic expansion valve moves to the 20% open
position when the unit is not actively cooling. The
valve may need to be manually positioned for service or
troubleshooting. The valve can be positioned by using a
menu override.
To manually override the valve:

The valve can also be opened or closed using the EEV
service tool (Bard Part # 2151-021). This magnetic EEV
service tool (shown in Figure 17) is used to manually
open the EEV. To do this, remove the EEV stator coil (red
color with retaining nut on top), slide the magnetic tool
over the shaft where the stator was removed and turn in
a clockwise direction to open the valve to the full open
position (directional arrows are provided on the tool).
Opening the valve to the full open position will aid in the
refrigerant reclamation and evacuation processes.
With the stator removed, the resistance should be 40
ohms +/- 10%. There are two sets of three wires that
will have this resistance.
After removing the EEV service tool, reapply the EEV
stator coil and retaining nut. Upon powering the unit
back up, the control board will automatically drive the
EEV back to the fully shut position, and then back to
the 20% open position prior to starting the compressor
back up. Once the compressor starts, the control board
will again modulate the EEV position to control the
system superheat.

Blower Status Alarm
When the blower is on for 45 seconds and no airflow
is detected by the airflow switch, the compressor
and heating operations will be disabled. The system
will wait 5 minutes before trying again. After three
consecutive no airflow events, the system will generate
an alarm and lockout requiring a user reset.
Filters
The unit is equipped with four (4) 20" x 24" x 2" MERV 8
filters (two per coil). The filters lift and slide into position
making them easy to service. The filters can be serviced
by opening the "hinged" front access panel and locking it
into position. Then lift and slide into position as needed.
Dirty Filter Switch
These units are equipped with a differential pressure
switch to indicate when the filter(s) needs to be
replaced (see Figure 23). The dirty filter switch
measures the pressure difference across the filter
through silicone tubing routed to the blower and
evaporator areas of the unit.
The switch circuit consists of a normally open filter
pressure switch. The switch will open when the
pressure differential goes above the setting indicated
on the dial. When the pressure difference returns below
the setting on the dial, the switch will close.
Adjustment of dirty filter switch may be necessary to
ensure proper operation. See Figure 25 to aid in setting
the filter switch to operate at different percentages of
filter blockage.
Dirty Filter Alarm
The wall-mount unit is equipped with a differential
pressure switch input to the controller. When the switch
indicates a dirty filter, the controller will generate an
alarm. The alarm will latch once triggered requiring a
technician to acknowledge the alarm after replacing
filters. Additionally, an indicator light will be turned on
with the alarm and turned off when the alarm clears.
The threshold of this alarm is adjusted by changing the
settings on the switch (see Figure 25).

Condenser Fan Operation
Condenser Fan Speed Control
The fan will speed up or slow down to attempt to
maintain a discharge pressure. The unit will allow
the discharge pressure setpoint to increase for high
ambient scenarios or decrease for low ambient
scenarios. Because the control is dependent on the
discharge pressure sensor, the controller will alter
its operation if the sensor is not enabled or failed.
When the liquid pressure transducer is not enabled or
considered failed by the controller, a nominal speed of
74% will be used during a compressor call.
Compressor
Compressor Components
Compressor
Three Phase Scroll Compressor Start Up Information
Scroll compressors, like several other types of
compressors, will only compress in one rotational
direction. Direction of rotation is not an issue with
single phase compressors since they will always start
and run in the proper direction.
However, three phase compressors will rotate in either
direction depending upon phasing of the power.
Since there is a 50-50 chance of connecting power
in such a way as to cause rotation in the reverse
direction, verification of proper rotation must be made.
Verification of proper rotation direction is made by
observing that suction pressure drops and discharge
pressure rises when the compressor is energized.
Reverse rotation also results in an elevated sound level
over that with correct rotation, as well as substantially
reduced current draw compared to tabulated values.
Verification of proper rotation must be made at the time
the equipment is put into service. If improper rotation
is corrected at this time, there will be no negative
impact on the durability of the compressor. However,
reverse operation for over 1 hour may have a negative
impact on the bearing due to oil pump out.
NOTE: If compressor is allowed to run in reverse
rotation for an extended period of time, the
compressor’s internal protector will trip.
All three phase compressors are wired identically
internally. As a result, once the correct phasing is
determined for a specific system or installation,
connecting properly phased power leads to the same
Fusite terminal should maintain proper rotation direction.
The direction of rotation of the compressor may be
changed by reversing any two line connections to the
wall-mount unit.

Brownout Protection with Adjustment
The LPC terminals are jumpered in this application.
Instead, the low pressure transducer is used for low

Delay-on-Make Timer
In the event of power loss, a delay-on-make timer is
included to be able to delay startup of the compressor.
This is desired when more than one unit is on a
structure so that all of the units do not start at the
same time which could happen after a power loss or
building shutdown. The delay-on-make time period is
2 minutes plus 10% of the delay-on-break time period.
To ensure that all of the units do not start at the same
time, adjust the delay-on-break timer on each unit to a
slightly different delay time.
FIGURE 30
8201-164 Compressor Control Module
Short Cycle Protection/Delay-on-Break
An anti-short cycle timer is included to prevent short
cycling the compressor. This is adjustable from 30
seconds to 5 minutes via the adjustment knob (see Figure
30). Once a compressor call is lost, the time period must
expire before a new call will be initiated.
10% of this time is also considered on the delay-onmake timer (see Delay-on-Make Timer).
High Pressure Detection
High pressure switch monitoring allows for a lockout
condition in a situation where the switch is open. If the
high pressure switch opens, the CCM will de-energize
the compressor. If the switch closes, it will then restart
the compressor after the delay-on-break setting has
expired on the device. If the switch trips again during
the same Y call, the compressor will be de-energized.
The ALR terminal will be energized, signaling the unit
control board that a high pressure event has occurred
(see Refrigerant High Pressure Alarm on page 23).

Test Mode
By rapidly rotating the potentiometer (POT) clockwise
(see Figure 30), all timing functions will be removed
for testing.
The conditions needed for the unit to enter test mode
are as follows: POT must start at a time less than or
equal to the 40 second mark. The POT must then be
rapidly rotated to a position greater than or equal to
the 280 second mark in less than ¼ second. Normal
operation will resume after power is reset or after the
unit has been in test mode for at least 5 minutes.
Brownout Protection with Adjustment
Brownout protection may be necessary if the utility
power or generator power has inadequate power to
prevent the voltage from dropping when the compressor
starts. This is rare but can happen if the generator
is undersized at the site or if the site is in a remote
location far from the main power grid. Under normal
circumstances, allowing the brownout to be ignored for
a time period should not be needed. The 8201-164 is
shipped with all the DIP switches in the 'off' or 'do not
ignore' position (see Figure 30).
If ignoring the brownout is needed because of the
above conditions, three preset timers can be set by DIP
switches in order to delay signaling a power brownout
for a specific length of time after compressor contactor
is energized. This allows the compressor a time period
to start even if the voltage has dropped and allows the
voltage to recover. This delay only happens when the
CC terminal energizes. The delay can be set to 500
milliseconds (A DIP switch), 1000 milliseconds (B DIP
switch) or 1500 milliseconds (C DIP switch); time is
not cumulative—only the longest setting will apply. If
the voltage recovers during the brownout time period,
the compressor will start.
If a brownout condition is detected by the 8201-164,
the troubleshooting light will flash blue. The light will
continue to flash until the cooling call is satisfied or
power is removed from the Y terminal. This condition
does not prevent operation, it only indicates that a
brownout condition was present at some point during
the cooling call. If a brownout condition is detected,
CC will be de-energized and will retry after the delayon-make timer is satisfied; this process will continue
until call is satisfied.
If user chooses the 'do not ignore' position when the
site has inadequate utility or generator power, this
could lead to the compressor never starting. The
control will
see the brownout immediately and not start.
A common scenario and one that has been seen in the
field is when a unit or units switches from utility power
to generator power. With slower transfer switches, the
time delay between the utility power and generator
power didn’t cause a problem. The units lost power,
shut off and came back on line normally. With the
introduction of almost instantaneous transfer switches,
the millisecond long power glitch can be enough that
the compressor will start to run backwards. In this
scenario, the CCM will catch this and restart the units
normally.
High Pressure Safety Switch
All units have a high pressure switch as a safety device.
This device will open when pressure in the system
reaches 650 PSIG. The sensor is directly connected
to the dedicated compressor control module (see High
Pressure Detection on page 22).
Refrigerant High Pressure Alarm
When the wall-mount unit receives a signal from the
compressor control module (CCM) indicating a high
pressure event, the wall-mount unit will generate an
alarm. Upon receiving the alarm, the wall-mount unit
will remove the “Y” call from the CCM, resetting the
status of the CCM. The alarm will stay present on the
wall-mount unit until manually cleared with TEC-EYE
hand-held diagnostic tool.
In addition to the CCM, the discharge pressure
transducer is used to prevent a high pressure event.
When the discharge pressure is above the discharge
pressure alarm setpoint (set 30 pounds below high
pressure switch, which is 650), the system will disable
stage 2 of mechanical cooling.
Phase Monitor
Used only on three phase equipment, the phase
monitor is a compressor protection device that will
prohibit operation of the compressor if the device senses
a possible reverse-rotation situation due to incorrect
phasing. On a call for compressor (and only compressor),
the device will check incoming phase, check for severe
voltage imbalance and check for proper frequency.
Under nominal conditions, a green LED light will show
on the face of the monitor. If there is improper phasing,
voltage imbalance or frequency deviation, the device will
show a red LED light and prohibit compressor operation.
If a fault condition occurs, reverse two of the supply
leads to the unit. Do not reverse any of the unit factory
wires as damage may occur.
Compressor Operation
The compressor will be enabled when the unit (in
orphan mode) or LC provide a cooling stage 1 call. The
compressor call from the controller has several delays
that may affect the start or stop time of the compressor
in regards to the cooling demand. The compressor has
a minimum on time of 180 seconds to prevent short
cycling the compressor. The compressor also has a
minimum off time of 120 seconds to prevent start
ups before the pressure in the refrigeration system
equalizes. When the second stage is engaged, it also
has a minimum run time of 120 seconds to allow the
system to stabilize before returning to single stage or
shutting down.

keep multiple units from starting their compressors
at the same time when there is a quick change in the
load. When connected to the LC, this is taken care of
by LC logic.

delayed based on the delay off value mentioned in the
compressor section. The controller will try to run the
refrigeration system two (2) times within 900 seconds
before the alarm will lock the compressor out. This
alarm needs to be manually cleared before compressor
operation will resume.

When the economizer is activated during a free cooling
call only, using any of the previously mentioned modes,
a 0-10v analog signal will be sent to the economizer
actuator. The actuator will then open and close the
damper blades to maintain a mixed air temperature of
55°F. When the mixed air temperature increases, the
damper will open and when the mixed air temperature
decreases, the damper will close.
The economizer may be disabled by the LC if the
system determines it needs to enter dehumidification
mode. More information about the dehumidification
sequence can be found in the latest revision of LC6000
Service Instructions 2100-669. In addition to dehum
mode, the economizer may be disabled for 5 minutes
(adjustable) if the dust sensor indicates the outdoor
air may cause particulate buildup in the air filters.
After the time has expired and on a call for cooling,
the economizer will open again to sample the air. The
wall-mount unit will either return to normal operation
or remain locked out for another 5 minutes.
Economizer Operation – Minimum Position
The economizer has an option to set minimum position
for the economizer. The minimum position will only
be active while the blower is operating. To enable
minimum position all the time, continuous blower must
be activated for the wall unit in the LC6000. See latest
version of LC6000 Service Instructions 2100-669 for
continuous blower configuration.

These units require R-410A refrigerant and
polyol ester oil.
General
1. Use separate service equipment to avoid cross
contamination of oil and refrigerants.
2. Use recovery equipment rated for R-410A
refrigerant.
3. Use manifold gauges rated for R-410A (800
PSI/250 PSI low).
4. R-410A is a binary blend of HFC-32 and HFC-
125.
5. R-410A is nearly azeotropic—similar to R-22 and
R-12. Although nearly azeotropic, charge with
liquid refrigerant.
6. R-410A operates at 40-70% higher pressure than
R-22, and systems designed for R-22 cannot
withstand this higher pressure.
7. R-410A has an ozone depletion potential of zero,
but must be reclaimed due to its global warming
potential.
8. R-410A compressors use polyol ester oil.
9. Polyol ester oil is hygroscopic; it will rapidly absorb
moisture and strongly hold this moisture in the oil.
10. A liquid line dryer must be used—even a deep
vacuum will not separate moisture from the oil.
11. Limit atmospheric exposure to 15 minutes.
12. If compressor removal is necessary, always plug
compressor immediately after removal. Purge with
small amount of nitrogen when inserting plugs.
Topping Off System Charge
If a leak has occurred in the system, Bard
Manufacturing recommends reclaiming, evacuating
(see criteria above) and charging to the nameplate
charge. If done correctly, topping off the system charge
can be done without problems.
With R-410A, there are no significant changes in the
refrigerant composition during multiple leaks and
recharges. R-410A refrigerant is close to being an
azeotropic blend (it behaves like a pure compound or
single component refrigerant). The remaining refrigerant
charge in the system may be used after leaks have
occurred. “Top-off” the charge by utilizing the pressure
charts on the inner control panel cover as a guideline.
REMEMBER: When adding R-410A refrigerant, it must
come out of the charging cylinder/tank as a liquid to
avoid any fractionation and to insure optimal system
performance. Refer to instructions for the cylinder that
is being utilized for proper method of liquid extraction.
Safety Practices
1. Never mix R-410A with other refrigerants.
2. Use gloves and safety glasses. Polyol ester oils can
be irritating to the skin, and liquid refrigerant will
freeze the skin.
3. Never use air and R-410A to leak check; the
mixture may become flammable.
4. Do not inhale R-410A—the vapor attacks
the nervous system, creating dizziness, loss
of coordination and slurred speech. Cardiac
irregularities, unconsciousness and ultimately
death can result from breathing this concentration.
5. Do not burn R-410A. This decomposition produces
hazardous vapors. Evacuate the area if exposed.
6. Use only cylinders rated DOT4BA/4BW 400.
7. Never fill cylinders over 80% of total capacity.
8. Store cylinders in a cool area, out of direct
sunlight.
9. Never heat cylinders above 125°F.
10. Never trap liquid R-410A in manifold sets, gauge
lines or cylinders. R-410A expands significantly at
warmer temperatures. Once a cylinder or line is full
of liquid, any further rise in temperature will cause
it to burst.
Important Installer Note
For improved start-up performance, wash the indoor
coil with a dishwashing detergent.
R410-A Refrigerant Charge
This wall-mount unit was charged at the factory with
the quantity of refrigerant listed on the serial plate.
AHRI capacity and efficiency ratings were determined
by testing with this refrigerant charge quantity.
Table 7 shows nominal pressures for the units. The
use of pressure gauges should not be necessary as
the measurements are available through the TEC-EYE
hand-held diagnostic too. Since many installation
specific situations can affect the pressure readings,
this information should only be used by certified
technicians as a guide for evaluating proper system
performance. They shall not be used to adjust charge.
If charge is in doubt, reclaim, evacuate and recharge
the wall-mount unit to the serial plate charge.

Pressure Service Ports
High and low pressure service ports are installed on all
wall-mount units so that the system operating pressures
can be observed. Pressures are shown in Table 8.
This unit employs high-flow Coremax valves instead of
the typical Schrader type valves.
WARNING! Do NOT use a Schrader valve core removal
tool with these valves. Use of such a tool could result
in eye injuries or refrigerant burns!
To change a Coremax valve without first removing the
refrigerant, a special tool is required which can be
obtained at www.fastestinc.com/en/SCCA07H. See the
replacement parts manual for replacement core part
numbers.

MAINTENANCE
Standard Maintenance Procedures
!
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard.
Disconnect all power supplies before
servicing.
Failure to do so could result in electric shock
or death.
!
CAUTION
Cut hazard.
Wear gloves to avoid contact with sharp
edges.
Failure to do so could result in personal
injury.
1. Disable system from LC6000 controller (see latest
revision of LC6000 Service Instructions 2100-
669).
2. Turn off AC breakers at wall-mount units.
3. Check inlet sides of condenser and evaporator coils
for obstructions/debris—clean if necessary using a
quality manufactured coil cleaning product specific
for the evaporator or condenser coil.
•
Condenser coil: For inlet-side cleaning, remove
condenser grilles. For outlet-side cleaning,
remove condenser fan panel. Unbolt fan from
mounting brackets and slide fan outward until
lower locking arm drops into position. Pivot
fan by lifting fan locking arm. Follow the coil
cleaner manufacturer’s directions for necessary
safety gear and precautions, as well as for
application and use. More than one application
may be necessary. Rinse thoroughly.
• Evaporator coil: Open filter access panels
and remove filters. Apply specific evaporator
cleaner directly to the inlet side of coil, being
very careful not to overspray into insulation or
surrounding panels and wiring. For outlet-side
cleaning, remove supply grille and clean from
that direction. Residual cleaner and dissolved
debris should drip into the drain pan and leave
the unit through the condensate hose. More
than one application may be necessary. Rinse
thoroughly.
4. Manually spin fan and blower motors to ensure
they turn freely. All motors are permanently
lubricated, so no oil is necessary.
5. Inspect free cooling damper actuator and linkage.
6. Install new air filters.
7. Inspect the control panel of the system.
• Look for insect or rodent activity and remove
any nesting materials.
• Manually push contactor closed, observe for
movement—contactor points should have
minimal discoloration, no spalling or other
signs of arcing. Replace if doubtful.
• Check field and factory wiring for tightness and
look for signs of overheating (discoloration of
terminals or wire insulation).
8. Ensure that supply and return registers are not
obstructed, and more importantly, are not recycling
the air to one another. Adjust supply louvers if
necessary to direct discharge air away from any
direct route to the return grille.
Re-assemble wall-mount unit, remembering to
9.
fasten fan to mounting brackets. Turn breakers back
on.
10. Enable system to LC6000 controller (see latest
revision of LC6000 Service Instructions 2100-
669).
11. Repeat steps for additional wall-mount units.
