INTRODUCTION
The 577D----A packaged unit is a fully self--contained combination
Category I gas heating/electric air conditioner designed for outdoor
installation (See Fig. 1). Standard units are shipped in a
horizontal--discharge configuration for installation on a rooftop, or
on cement slab (See Fig. 4 for roof curb dimensions). Standard
units can be converted to downflow (vertical) discharge
configurations for rooftop applications.
Models with an N in the thirteenth position of the model number
are dedicated Low NOx units designed for California installations.
These models meet the California maximum oxides of nitrogen
(NOx) emissions requirements of 40 nanograms/joule or less as
shipped from the factory and must be installed in California Air
Quality Management Districts or any other regions in North
America where a Low NOx rule exists.
In gas heating mode, this unit is designed for a minimum
continuous return--air temperature of 55_F(13_C) db and a
maximum continuous return--air temperature of 80_F(27_C) db.
Failure to follow these return--air temperature limits may affect
reliability of heat exchangers, motors, and other components.
NOTE:Low NOx requirements apply only to natural gas
installations.
RECEIVING AND INSTALLATION
Check Equipment
IDENTIFY UNIT
The unit model number and serial number are printed on the unit
.
informative plate. Check this information against shipping papers.
INSPECT SHIPMENT
Inspect for shipping damage before removing packaging material.
If unit appears to be damaged or is torn loose from its anchorage,
have it examined by transportation inspectors before removal.
Forward claim papers directly to transportation company.
Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit.
Check all items against shipping list. Immediately notify the
nearest distributor office if any item is missing. To prevent loss or
damage, leave all parts in original packages until installation.
If the unit is to be mounted on a curb in a downflow application,
review “Configuring Units for Downflow Discharge” to determine
which method is to be used to remove the downflow panels before
rigging and lifting into place. The panel removal process may
require the unit to be on the ground.
Provide Unit Support
IMPORTANT: The unit must be secured to the curb by installing
screws through the bottom of the curb flange and into the unit base
rails. When installing large base units onto the common curb, the
screws must be installed before allowing the full weight of the unit
to rest on the curb. A minimum of six screws are required for large
base units. Failure to secure unit properly could result in an
unstable unit. See Warning near Rigging/Lifting information and
accessory curb instructions for more details.

Provide for Condensate Disposal
NOTE: Ensure that condensate--water disposal methods comply
with local codes, restrictions, and practices.
The units dispose of condensate through a 3/4 --in. NPT female
fitting that exits on the compressor end of the unit. Condensate
water can be drained directly onto the roof in rooftop installations
(where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in ground level
installations. Install a field-- supplied condensate trap at end of
condensate connection to ensure proper drainage. Make sure that
10
the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. (25 mm) lower than the
drain--pan condensate connection to prevent the pan from
overflowing. Prime the trap with water. When using a gravel apron,
make sure it slopes away from the unit.
If the installation requires draining the condensate water away from
the unit, install a field--supplied 2--in. (51 mm) trap at the
condensate connection to ensure proper drainage. Condensate trap
is available as an accessory or is field--supplied. Make sure that the
outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. (25 mm) lower than the unit
drain--pan condensate connection to prevent the pan from
overflowing. Connect a drain tube using a minimum of
field-- supplied 3/4 --in. PVC or field--supplied 3/4 --in. copper pipe
at outlet end of the 2 --in. (51 mm) trap (See Fig. 9). Do not
undersize the tube. Pitch the drain tube downward at a slope of at
least 1 in. for every 10 ft. (3 m) of horizontal run. Be sure to check
the drain trough for leaks. Prime the trap at the beginning of the
cooling season start--up.

piping for 0.5 IN. W.C. maximum pressure drop. Never use pipe
smaller than the 1/2-- in. FPT gas inlet on the unit gas valve.
For natural gas applications, the gas pressure at unit gas connection
must not be less than 4.0 IN. W.C. or greater than 13 IN. W.C.
while the unit is operating. For propane applications, refer to
propane conversion kit instructions.
A 1/8-- in. (3.2 mm) NPT plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge
connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas
supply connection to the gas valve and downstream of manual
equipment shutoff valve.
When installing the gas supply line, observe local codes pertaining
to gas pipe installations. Refer to the NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1--2009
(in Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1).
NOTE: In the state of Massachusetts:
1. Gas supply connections MUST be performed by a licensed
plumber or gas fitter.
2. When flexible connectors are used, the maximum length
shall not exceed 36 in. (915 mm).
3. When lever handle type manual equipment shutoff valves
are used, they shall be T-- handle valves.
4. The use of copper tubing for gas piping is NOT approved
by the state of Massachusetts.
In the absence of local building codes, adhere to the following
pertinent recommendations:
1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. Grade all pipe 1/4 in.
(6.35 mm) for every 15 ft (4.6 m) of length to prevent traps.
Grade all horizontal runs downward to risers. Use risers to
connect to heating section and to meter.
2. Protect all segments of piping system against physical and
thermal damage. Support all piping with appropriate straps,
hangers, etc. Use a minimum of one hanger every 6 ft. (1.8
m). For pipe sizes larger than 1/2 in., follow
recommendations of national codes.
3. Apply joint compound (pipe dope) sparingly and only to
male threads of joint when making pipe connections. Use
only pipe dope that is resistant to action of liquefied
petroleum gases as specified by local and/or national codes.
Never use Teflon tape.
4. Install sediment trap in riser leading to heating section (See
Fig. 10). This drip leg functions as a trap for dirt and
condensate.
5. Install an accessible, external, manual main shutoff valve in
gas supply pipe within 6 ft (1.8 m) of heating section.
6. Install ground--joint union close to heating section between
unit manual shutoff and external manual main shut off
valve.
7. Pressure test all gas piping in accordance with local and
national plumbing and gas codes before connecting piping
to unit.
NOTE: Pressure test the gas supply system after the gas supply
piping is connected to the gas valve. The supply piping must be
disconnected from the gas valve during the testing of the piping
systems when test pressure is in excess of 0.5 psig. Pressure test the
gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less than 0.5 psig.
The unit heating section must be isolated from the gas piping
system by closing the external main manual shutoff valve and

Unit Start--Up and Troubleshooting
NOTE: Always check high-- and low--voltage supply to the unit
components. Check the integrity of the plug receptacle connections
and unit wiring harness prior to assuming a component failure.
A. LED Description
LEDs built into Evolution control boards provide installer or
service person information concerning operation and/or fault
condition of the unit controls and ECM motor. This information is
also available at the system UI in text with basic troubleshooting
instructions. Careful use of information displayed will reduce the
need for extensive manual troubleshooting.
Both the furnace and heat pump (HP)/air conditioner (AC) boards
have an amber LED and a green LED. On the HP/AC board, these
are located near the System Communications connector (ABCD)
(lower right corner of the HP/AC board as installed in the unit).
On the furnace board, these are located at the upper right side,
adjacent to the fuse, above the terminal block. The amber LED is
the System Status LED, labeled STATUS. The green LED, labeled
COMM, is used as an indicator of system communications status
(See Fig. 15 and 18).
Status Codes will be displayed on the STATUS LED using the
following protocol:
1. The number of short flashes indicates first digit of code.
2. The number of long flashes indicates second digit of code.
3. A short flash is 0.25 seconds on. A long flash is 1 second
on.
4. The time between flashes is 0.25 seconds.
5. The time between last short flash and first long flash is 1
second.
6. The LEDs will be off for 2.5 seconds before repeating code.
7. If multiple status codes are active concurrently, the highest
priority status code is displayed.
B. ControlStart--UpandSystemCommunications
Troubleshooting
On power up, green COMM LEDs will be turned off until
successful system communications are established (this should
happen within 10 seconds). Once communications with UI are
successful, both COMM LEDs will be lit and held on. At the same
time, amber STATUS LEDs will be lit and held continuously on
until a request for operating mode is received. The STATUS LED
will be on any time unit is in idle mode.
If, at any time, communications are not successful for a period
exceeding 2 minutes, the Evolution control will only allow
16
emergency heating or cooling operation using a common
thermostat and the terminal strip connections on the two control
boards (See Non--Communicating Emergency Cooling/Heating
Mode) and will display Status Code 16, System Communication
Fault, on amber STATUS LED. No further troubleshooting
information will be available at UI until communications are
re--established.
If either COMM LED does not light within proper time period and
status codes are not displayed;
1. Check system transformer high-- and low--voltage to be sure
the system is powered.
2. Check ABCD connection on both boards.
3. Check fuse on furnace board to be sure it is not blown. If
fuse is open, check system wiring before replacing it to be
sure a short does not cause a failure of replacement fuse.
If COMM LED does not light within proper time period and status
code is displayed:
1. Check system wiring to be sure UI is powered and
connections are made A to A, B to B, etc. and wiring is not
shorted.MiswiringorshortingoftheABCD
communications wiring willnotallow successful
communications.
NOTE:Shorting or miswiring low--voltage system wiring will
not cause damage to unit control or UI but may cause low voltage
fuse to open.
C. Indoor Fan Motor Troubleshooting
The indoor fan is driven by an ECM motor consisting of two parts:
the control module and the motor winding section. Do not assume
motor or module is defective if it will not start. Use the
designed--in LED information aids and follow troubleshooting
steps described below before replacing motor control module or
entire motor. Motor control module is available as a replacement
part.
VERIFY MOTOR WINDING SECTION

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
After disconnecting power from the ECM motor, wait at
least 5 minutes before removing the control section. Internal
capacitors require time to discharge.
operate electric heaters while a fault condition exists. The control
communicates with the motor at least once every five seconds,
even when the motor is idle. If, during operation, the control does
not communicate with the motor for more than 25 seconds, the
motor will shut itself down and wait for communications to be
reestablished.
D. Furnace Control Troubleshooting
Furnace control faults indicated by flashing codes on the amber
system STATUS LED can be resolved using troubleshooting
information provided below. Codes are listed in order of their
priority, highest to lowest. Though multiple faults can exist at any
time, only the highest priority code will be displayed on STATUS
LED. Clearing the indicated fault when multiple faults exist will
cause the next highest priority Status Code to be flashed. All
existing faults, as well as a fault history, can be viewed at UI.
STATUS CODE CONTINUOUS OFF
Check for 230 VAC at L1 and L2, and 24 VAC at SEC --1 and
SEC--2 .
STATUS CODE CONTINUOUS ON
Control has 24 VAC power.
STATUS CODE 11 -- NO PREVIOUS CODE
Stored status codes are erased automatically after 72 hours.
STATUS CODE 12 -- BLOWER ON AFTER POWER UP
(230 VAC or 24 VAC) Blower runs for 90 seconds if unit is
powered up during a call for heat (R--W/W1 closed) or (R--W/W1
opens) during blower on--delay period.
STATUS CODE 1 3 -- LIMIT CIRCUIT LOCKOUT
Lockout occurs if a limit or flame rollout switch is open longer
than 3 minutes or 10 successive limit trips occurred during high
heat. Control will auto reset after three hours. Refer to status code
33.
STATUS CODE 1 4 -- IGNITION LOCKOUT
Control will auto reset after three hours. Refer to status code 34.
STATUS CODE 1 5 -- BLOWER MOTOR LOCKOUT
Indicates the blower failed to reach 250 RPM or the blower failed
to communicate within 30 seconds after being turned ON in two
successive heating cycles. Control will auto reset after 3 hours.
Refer to status code 41.
577D-- --A
Before proceeding to replace a motor control module:
1. Check motor winding section to be sure it is functional.
2. Remove motor control module section and unplug winding
plug. Motor shaft should turn freely, resistance between any
two motor leads should be similar and resistance between
any motor lead and unpainted motor end should exceed
100,000 ohms.
3. Failing any of these tests, entire ECM motor must be
replaced.
4. Passing all of the tests, motor control module alone can be
replaced.
MOTOR TURNS SLOWLY
1. Low static pressure loading of blower while access panel is
removed will cause blower to run slowly. Particularly at low
airflow requests. This is normal, do not assume a fault
exists.
2. Recheck airflow and system static pressure using UI service
screens with access panel in place.
NOTE: Blower motor faults will not cause a lockout of blower
operation. The fan coil control will attempt to run the blower motor
as long as UI maintains a demand for airflow. The control will not

E. HP/AC Control Troubleshooting
See Table 4 for HP/AC control board status codes and
troubleshooting information.
STATUS CODE 5 3, OUTDOORAIR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR FAULT -- DETAILED DESCRIPTION
If an OAT sensor is found at power--up, input is constantly checked
to be within a valid temperature range. If sensor is found to be
22
open or shorted at any time after initial validation, Status Code 53
will be displayed at amber STATUS LED.
Check for faults in wiring connecting sensor to OAT terminals.
Using an Ohm meter, check resistance of thermistor for a short or
open condition.
If thermistor is shorted or open, replace it to return the system to
normal operation. If fault is in the wiring connections, correcting
the fault will clear the code and return the system to normal
operation.
NOTE: If fault condition is an open thermistor or a wiring problem
that appears to be an open thermistor and the power to the unit is
cycled off, the fault code will be cleared on the next power--up but
the fault will remain and system operation will not be as expected.
This is because on power-- up, the unit control cannot discern
the difference between an open sensor or if a sensor is not
installed.
Sequence of Operation
The 577D---- A packaged unit is designed for installation with a
communicating UI. This unit will not respond to commands
provided by a common thermostat except under certain emergency
situations described in Step 1—Start--Up and Troubleshooting.
The UI uses temperature, humidity and other data supplied from
indoor and outdoor system components to control heating or
cooling system for optimum comfort. The unit will be commanded
by UI to supply airflow. The unit will operate the indoor blower at
requested airflow for most modes.
INDOOR AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENTS
The nominal requested airflow for air conditioner operations will
be 350 cfm per ton of nominal cooling capacity as defined by unit
size. Actual airflow request will be adjusted from nominal using
indoor and outdoor temperature and indoor humidity data to
optimize the system operation for occupant comfort and system
efficiency. Refer to UI literature for further system control details.
!
CAUTION
UNIT OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in unit damage.
For cooling operation, the recommended airflow is 350 to
450 cfm for each 12,000 Btuh of rated cooling capacity. For
heating operation, the airflow must produce a temperature
rise that falls within the range stamped on the unit rating
plate.
For gas heat operations, Table 3 shows the temperature rise in each
gas heating mode. Refer to these tables to determine the desired
heating airflow for the system being installed.
NOTE: Be sure that all supply-- and return-- air grilles are open,
free from obstructions, and adjusted properly. Airflow can be
changed using the UI. See UI installation instructions for more
detail.
NOTE: Once the compressor has started and then has stopped, it
should not be started again until 4 minutes have elapsed. The
cooling cycle remains “on” until the room temperature drops to
point that is slightly below the cooling control setting of the UI.
AIR CONDITIONER SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
COOLING OPERATION
With a call for first stage cooling, the outdoor fan, and low stage
compressor are energized. If low--stage cannot satisfy cooling
demand, high-- stage cooling is energized by the UI. After second
stage is satisfied, the unit returns to low--stage operation until first
stage is satisfied or until second stage is required again. When both
first stage and second stage cooling are satisfied, the compressor
will shut off.
NOTE: When two--stage unit is operating at low--stage, system
vapor (suction) pressure will be higher than a standard single-- stage
system or high-- stage operation.
NOTE:Outdoor fan motor will continue to operate for one
minute after compressor shuts off, when outdoor ambient is greater
than or equal to 100°F(38°C).
UTILITY INTERFACE WITH Evolution CONTROL
The utility curtailment relay should be connected to factory
supplied pigtails (PINK, connected to R, VIOLET connected to Y2
on the control board) located in the low voltage splice box (See
Fig. 16, 18 and 18). This input allows a power utility device to
interrupt compressor operation during peak load periods. When the
utility sends a signal to shut the system down, the UI will display
“Curtailment Active”.
COMPRESSOR OPERATION
When the compressor is operating in low stage, the modulating
ring is deactivated, allowing two internal bypass ports to close off
33% of the scroll compression area so the system operates at part
load capacity.The 24--volt solenoid coil is de--energized in
low--stage operation.
When the compressor is operating at high stage, the modulating
ring is activated, sealing the bypass ports, which allows the
compressor to operate at full load capacity. The 24--volt solenoid
coil is energized in high stage operation.
CRANKCASE HEATER OPERATION (IF APPLICABLE)
The crankcase heater is energized during off cycle below 65_F
(18_C) outdoor air temperature.
OUTDOOR FAN MOTOR OPERATION
The outdoor unit control energizes the outdoor fan any time the
compressor is operating. The outdoor fan remains energized if a
pressure switch or compressor overload should open. Outdoor fan
motor will continue to operate for one minute after the compressor
shuts off when the outdoor ambient is greater than or equal to
100_F(38°C).
TIME DELAYS--AIR CONDITIONER OPERATIONS
The unit time delays include:
S Five minute time delay to start cooling operation when there is a
call from the thermostat or user interface. To bypass this feature,
momentarily short and release Forced Defrost pins.
S Five minute compressor recycle delay on return from a
brown--out condition.
S Two minute time delay to return to standby operation from last
valid communication (with Evolution only).
S One minute time delay of outdoor fan at termination of cooling
mode when outdoor ambient is greater than or equal to 100_F
(38°C).
S There is no time delay between air conditioner staging from low
to high and from high to low capacity; the compressor will change
from low to high and from high to low capacity as demand
dictates.

EVOLUTION CONTROLLED LOW AMBIENT COOLING
NOTE: When this unit is operating below 55_F(13°C) outdoor
temperature, provisions must be made for low ambient operation.
This unit is capable of low ambient cooling down to 0_F(--18°C).
ONLY when using the Evolution control. A low ambient kit is not
required, and the outdoor fan motor does not need to be replaced
for Evolution controlled low ambient operation. Low ambientcooling must be enabled in the UI set--up. Fan may not begin to
cycle until about 40_F(4°C).OAT. Fan will cycle based on coil
and outdoor air temperature. Evolution controlled low ambient
mode operates as follows:
S In high stage, fan is off when outdoor coil temp is <outdoor air
temperature plus 3_F(1.7_C) or outdoor fan has been ON for 30
minutes. (Fan is turned off to allow refrigerant system to
stabilize.)
S In low stage, fan is off when outdoor coil temp is <outdoor air
temperature plus 1_F(.6_C) or outdoor fan has been ON for 30
minutes. (Fan is turned off to allow refrigerant system to
stabilize.)
S In high stage and low stage, fan is on when outdoor coil temp >
outdoor air temperature plus 25_F (13.8_C) or outdoor coil temp
>80_F(27_C) or if outdoor fan has been OFF for 30 minutes.
(Fan is turned on to allow refrigerant system to stabilize.)
S Low--pressure switch is ignored for first 3 minutes during low
ambient start up. After 3 minutes, if LPS trips, then outdoor fan
motor is turned off for 10 minutes with the compressor running. If
LPS closes within 10 minutes then cooling continues with the
outdoor fan cycling per the coil temperature routine listed above
for the remainder of the cooling cycle. If the LPS does not close
within 10 minutes, then the normal LPS trip response (shut down
cooling operation and generate LPS trip error) will occur.
DEHUMIDIFICATION MODE
This Evolution system can be used to dehumidify the living space.
See UI Installation Instructions for more details.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION--GAS HEAT
NOTE: Evolution control must be grounded for proper operation
or control will lock out.
NOTE: If a power interruption occurs during a call for heat, the
control will start a 90--second blower only ON period two seconds
after power is restored, if the UI is still calling for gas heating. The
amber LED light will flash code 12 during the 90-- second period,
after which the LED will be ON continuously, as long as no faults
are detected. After the 90--second period, the unit will respond to
the UI normally.
GAS HEAT MODE AND ADJUSTMENTS
When the UI calls for gas heat, the Evolution furnace board
performs a self--check, verifies the pressure switch is open, and
starts the inducer on high speed.
1. Inducer Pre-- purge Period: When the inducer motor comes
up on high speed, the pressure switch closes, and the
Evolution ignition control on the furnace board begins a 15
second pre--purge period. If the pressure switch fails to
remain closed, the inducer will remain running. After the
pressure switch re--closes, the Evolution ignition control
will begin a 15 second pre--purge period.
2. Trial-- For-- Ignition Sequence: The spark igniter will spark
for 3 seconds. The main gas valve relay contact closes to
energize the gas valve on low stage. After 5 seconds, the
igniter is de--energized and a 2--second flame--proving
period begins. NOTE: The unit always lights on high
speed inducer and low stage gas valve operation.
3. Flame--Proving: When the burner flame is proved at the
flame--proving sensor, the furnace control determines what
heating stage to run based on feedback from the UI. If the
UI is asking for low stage gas heat, the ignition control will
change the inducer speed to low speed and keep the gas
valve energized on low stage. If the UI is asking for high
stage gas heat, the ignition control will maintain running the
inducer on high speed and energize the gas valve’s high
stage relay to increase gas flow.
If the burner flame is not proved within 2 seconds, the control will
close the gas valve and repeat the ignition sequence up to 3 more
Trials--For--Ignition before going to Ignition--Lockout. Lockout
will reset automatically after 3 hours, by momentarily interrupting
230 VAC power, or by interrupting 24 VAC power at SEC1 or
SEC2 to the furnace board.
If flame is proved when there should be no flame present, control
will lock out of Gas--Heating mode and operate the inducer motor
until flame is no longer proved.
4. Blower--On Delay:If the burner flame is proven,
approximately 37 seconds after the gas valve is opened the
Indoor Blower is turned on to the appropriate speed for the
gas heating stage.
Simultaneously, the humidifier terminal HUM and electronic air
cleaner terminal EAC-- 1 are energized throughout the heating
cycle.
NOTE:EAC-- 2 terminal is common with L2 and will have
115VAC--to--ground when unit is powered.
5. Blower--Off Delay: When the call for gas heat is satisfied,
the gas valve is de-- energized, stopping the flow of gas to
the burners, and de--energizing the HUM terminal. The
inducer motor will remain on for a 4-- second post--purge
period. The indoor blower and air cleaner terminal EAC--1
will remain energized for 90, 120, 150, or 180 seconds
(depending on selection of blower--off delay selected in the
UI). The factory--set default is 120-- second blower--OFF
delay.

Gas input rates on rating plate are for installations at altitudes up to
2000 ft (610 m). Input rate must be within ± 2% of rating plate
input.
577D-- --A
1. Determine the correct gas input rate.
a. The rated gas inputs shown in Table 6 are for altitudes
from sea level to 2000 ft (610 m) above sea level.
These inputs are based on natural gas with a heating
value of 1025 Btu/ft3 at .60 specific gravity.
IN THE U.S.A.:
The input rating for altitudes above 2,000 ft (610 m) must be
reduced by 4 percent for each 1,000 ft (305 m) above sea level.
For installations below 2,000 ft, (610 m) refer to the unit rating
plate.
For installations above 2,000 ft, (610 m) multiply the input by on
the rating plate by the derate multiplier in Table 5 for the correct
input rate.

aligned orifice hole is essential for proper flame characteristics.
3. Verify natural gas low stage input rate.
a. Turn off all other gas appliances and pilots served by
the gas meter.
b. If unit is not running, set unit to run for 20 minutes in
low--stage gas heat operation using the ”INSTALLER
CHECKOUT” menu on the UI.
c. Record number of seconds for gas meter to complete
one revolution.
d. Divide number of seconds in step c. into 3600 (number
of seconds in 1 hour).
e. Multiply result of step d. by the number of cubic feet
shown for one revolution of test dial to obtain cubic feet
of gas flow per hour.
f. Multiply result of step f. by Btu heating value of the gas
to obtain total measured input shown in Table 6.
(Consult the local gas supplier if the heating value of
gas is not known).
EXAMPLE: Assume a 90,000 high stage input unit is being
installed. Assume that the size of the dial is 2 cubic ft., one
revolution takes 129 sec., and the heating value of the gas is 1025
Btu/ft3. Proceed as follows:
26
a. 129 sec. to complete one revolution
b. 3600/129 = 27.9
c. 27.9x2=55.8ft3of gas flow/hr.
d. 55.8 x 1050 = 58,590 Btuh input.
In this example, the nominal input rate for low stage is 58,500
Btu/hr, so the low stage manifold pressure is correctly set.
If the measured low stage rate is too low, increase the manifold
pressure to increase rate. If the measured low stage rate is too high,
decrease the manifold pressure to decrease rate.
NOTE: Double--check that UI is running on low stage gas heat
while clocking the low stage firing rate.
4. Verify proper low stage gas heat temperature rise.
a. Furnace must operate within rise range listed on rating
plate.
b. Select ”COMFORT” or ”EFFICIENCY” mode on UI.
”COMFORT” mode will provide a warmer supply air
temperature, while ”EFFICIENCY” will provide lower
gas consumption.
c. Make sure access panel is re--installed on the unit.
d. Measure supply and return temperatures as close to the
unit as possible. Subtract the return temperature from
the supply temperature to determine rise. Rise should
fall within the range specified on the rating plate.
5. Adjust manifold pressure to obtain high stage input rate
(See Fig. 19).
a. Set unit to run for 20 minutes in high--stage gas heat
operation using the ”INSTALLER CHECKOUT” menu
on the UI.
b. Remove regulator adjustment cap from high stage gas
valve pressure regulator (See Fig. 19) and turn
high--stage adjusting screw (3/16 or smaller flat--tipped
screwdriver) counterclockwise (out) to decrease rate and
clockwise (in) to increase input rate.
NOTE: DO NOT set high stage manifold pressure less than 3.2
IN. W.C. or more than 3.8 IN. W.C. for natural gas. If manifold
pressure is outside this range, change main burner orifices.
c. Re-- install high stage regulator adjustment cap.
d. Leave manometer connected.
6. Verify natural gas high stage input rate.
a. Turn off all other gas appliances and pilots served by
the gas meter.
b. If unit is not running, set unit to run for 20 minutes in
high stage gas heat operation using the ”INSTALLER
CHECKOUT” menu on the UI.
c. Record number of seconds for gas meter to complete 1
revolution.
d. Divide number of seconds in step c. into 3600 (number
of seconds in 1 hour).
e. Multiply result of step d. by the number of cubic feet
shown for one revolution of test dial to obtain cubic feet
of gas flow per hour.
f. Multiply result of step f. by Btu heating value of the gas
to obtain total measured input shown in Table 6.
(Consult the local gas supplier if the heating value of
gas is not known).
EXAMPLE: Assume a 90,000 high stage input unit is being
installed. Assume that the size of the dial is 2 cubic ft., one
revolution takes 84 sec., and the heating value of the gas is 1025
Btu/ft3. Proceed as follows:
a. 84 sec. to complete one revolution
b. 3600/84 = 42.9
c. 42.9x2=85.8ft3ofgasflow/hr.
d. 85.8 x 1050 = 90,090 Btuh input.
In this example, the nominal input rate for high stage is 90,000
Btu/hr, so the high stage manifold pressure is correctly set.
If the measured high stage rate is too low, increase the manifold
pressure to increase rate. If the measured high stage rate is too
high, decrease the manifold pressure to decrease rate.
NOTE: Double--check that User Interface is running on high stage
gas heat while clocking the low stage firing rate.
7. Verify proper high stage gas heat temperature rise.
a. Furnace must operate within rise range listed on rating
plate.
b. Make sure access panel is re--installed on the unit.
c. Measure supply and return temperatures as close to the
unit as possible. Subtract the return temperature from
the supply temperature to determine rise. Rise should
fall within the range specified on the rating plate.
NOTE: If the temperature rise is outside the rating plate range,
first check:
a. Gas input for low and high stage gas heat operation.
b. Derate for altitude, if applicable.
c. Return and supply ducts for excessive restrictions
causing static pressures in excess of .5 IN. W.C.
d. Make sure model plug is installed.
8. Final Check
a. Turn off gas to unit
b. Remove manometer from pressure tap.
c. Replace pipe plug on manifold (See Fig. 20).
d. Turn on gas to unit.

LIMIT SWITCHES
Normally closed limit switch (LS) completes the control circuit.
Should the leaving--air temperature rise above the maximum
allowable temperature, the limit switch opens and the control
circuit “breaks.” Any interruption in the control circuit instantly
577D-- --A
closes the gas valve and stops gas flow to the burners. The blower
motor continues to run until LS resets. The furnace board STATUS
LED will display STATUS CODE 33.
When the air temperature at the limit switch drops to the
low--temperature setting of the limit switch, the switch closes and
completes the control circuit. The direct-- spark ignition system
cycles and the unit returns to normal heating operation.
ROLLOUT SWITCH
The function of the rollout switch is to close the main gas valve in
the event of flame rollout. The switch is located above the main
burners. When the temperature at the rollout switch reaches the
maximum allowable temperature, the control circuit trips, closing
the gas valve and stopping gas flow to the burners. The indoor fan
motor (IFM) continues to run until switch is reset. The furnace
board STATUS LED will display STATUS CODE 33.
CONTINUOUS FAN MODE
When continuous fan operation is requested by the UI indoor fan
motor will operate at continuous blower airflow. Continuous fan
operation is programmable. See the UI Owner’s Manual for
detailed instructions. Terminal EAC--1 is energized as long as the
indoor fan motor is energized.
During a call for gas heat, the Evolution control will transition the
indoor fan motor to continuous blower airflow or gas heat airflow,
whichever is lowest. The indoor fan motor will remain ON until
the burners ignite, then shut OFF and remain OFF for the
blower--ON delay allowing the heat exchangers to heat up more
quickly, then restarts at the end of the blower--ON delay period.
The indoor fan motor will revert to continuous--blower airflow
after the gas heating cycle is completed.
When the UI “calls for cooling”, the indoor fan motor will switch
to operate at cooling airflow. When the call for cooling is satisfied,
the indoor fan motor will operate an additional 90 seconds at
cooling airflow before transitioning back to continuous-- blower
airflow.
When the call for continuous fan is removed, the indoor blower
will continue operating for an additional 5 seconds before shutting
down, if no other function requires blower motor operation.

COMPONENT TEST
The Evolution Furnace Board features a gas component test system
to help diagnose a system problem in the case of a gas component
failure. To initiate the component test procedure, ensure that there
are no UI inputs to the control (the ABCD connector can be
removed from the Evolution control board for this operation) and
all time delays have expired. Turn on setup switch SW1--6.
NOTE: The component test feature will not operate if the control
is receiving any UI signals or until all time delays have expired.
The component test sequence is as follows:
1. The control turns the inducer motor ON and keeps it ON
through step 3.
2. After waiting 10 seconds, the control turns the igniter ON
for 15 seconds, then OFF.
3. The control then turns the indoor fan motor on for 15
seconds, then OFF.
4. After shutting the blower motor OFF, the control runs the
inducer for 10 seconds, then turns it OFF.
NOTE:The EAC terminals are energized when the blower is
operating.
After the component test is completed, one or more status codes
(11, 25, or 41) will flash. See component test section or Status
Code Label for explanation of status codes.
NOTE: To repeat component test, turn setup switch SW1--6 to
OFF and then back ON.
Check for Refrigerant Leaks
Locate and repair refrigerant leaks and charge the unit as follows:
1. Use both high-- and low--pressure ports to relieve system
pressure and reclaim remaining refrigerant.
2. Repair leak following accepted practices.
NOTE: Install a filter drier whenever the system has been opened
for repair.
3. Check system for leaks using an approved method.
4. Evacuate refrigerant system and reclaim refrigerant if no
additional leaks are found.
5. Charge unit with Puron (R--410A) refrigerant, using an
accurate scale. Refer to unit rating plate for required charge.
Start--Up Adjustments
Complete the required procedures given in the Pre--Start--Up
section before starting the unit. Do not jumper any safety devices
when operating the unit. Do not operate the unit in cooling mode
when the outdoor temperature is below 40°F(4°C) (unless
low--ambient operation is enabled in the UI). Do not rapid cycle
the compressor. Allow 5 min. between “on” cycles to prevent
compressor damage.

OPERATION
See UI Installation Instructions for detailed system CHECKOUT.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING REFRIGERANT CHARGE
The refrigerant system is fully charged with Puron (R-- 410A)
refrigerant and is tested and factory sealed.
NOTE: Any adjustment to refrigerant charge must be done with
unit operating in HIGH stage.
NOTE:Adjustment of the refrigerant charge is not required
unless the unit is suspected of not having the proper R--410A
charge. The charging label and the tables shown refer to system
temperatures and pressures in cooling mode only. A refrigerant
charging label is attached to the outside of the unit.

IMPORTANT:When evaluating the refrigerant charge, an
indicated adjustment to the specified factory charge must always be
very minimal. If a substantial adjustment is indicated, an abnormal
condition exists somewhere in the cooling system, such as
insufficient airflow across either coil or both coils.
REFRIGERANT CHARGE
The amount of refrigerant charge is listed on the unit rating plate
and/or the physical data table. Refer to the Refrigeration Service
Techniques Manual, Refrigerants Section.
NO CHARGE
Check for leak. Use standard evacuating techniques. After
evacuating system, weigh in the specified amount of refrigerant
(refer to system rating plate).
LOW CHARGE COOLING
Use Cooling Charging Chart (Fig. 23). Vary refrigerant until the
conditions of the chart are met. Note that charging charts are
different from type normally used. Charts are based on charging
the units to correct subcooling for the various operating conditions.
Accurate pressure gauge and temperature sensing devices are
required. Connect the pressure gauge to the service port on the
suction line. Mount the temperature sensing device on the suction
line and insulate it so that the outdoor ambient does not affect the
reading. Indoor air CFM must be within the normal operating
range of the unit.
TO USE COOLING CHARGING CHARTS
Take the liquid line temperature and read the manifold pressure
gauges.
Refer to the chart to determine what the liquid line temperature
should be.
NOTE:If the problem causing the inaccurate readings is a
refrigerant leak, refer to Check for Refrigerant Leaks section.
This mode of operation is provided only in the case where the UI
has failed or is otherwise unavailable. If communications cannot be
established with the UI, the Evolution furnace board will enable
the standard thermostat input terminalsto allow simple
thermostatic control of the 577D-- -- A unit.
For control with a standard thermostat, disconnect the ABCD
connectors from both control boards and using No. 18 AWG
color--coded, insulated type 90°C minimum or equivalent wire,
make the connections between the standard thermostat, the furnace
board, and the HP/AC board per Fig. 22. Recommend the use of
interconnecting wire with 105C, 600V, 2/64” insulation.
The Evolution control will respond to cooling and heating
demands with the maximum safe airflow based on gas furnace
output and unit cooling capacity.

5. When replacing fan blade, position blade according to the
table shown in Fig. 27.
6. Ensure that set screw engages the flat area on the motor
shaft when tightening.
7. Replace grille.
Electrical Controls and Wiring
Inspect and check the electrical controls and wiring annually. Be
sure to turn off the electrical power to the unit.
Remove access panel to locate all the electrical controls and wiring.
Check all electrical connections for tightness. Tighten all screw
connections. If any smoky or burned connections are noticed,
disassemble the connection, clean all the parts, re--strip the wire
end and reassemble the connection properly and securely.
32
After inspecting the electrical controls and wiring, replace all the
panels. Start the unit, and observe at least one complete cooling
cycle to ensure proper operation. If discrepancies are observed in
operating cycle, or if a suspected malfunction has occurred, check
eachelectricalcomponentwiththeproperelectrical
instrumentation. Refer to the unit wiring label when making these
checks.
Inspect all refrigerant tubing connections and the unit base for oil
accumulation annually. Detecting oil generally indicates a
refrigerant leak.
If oil is detected or if low performance is suspected, leak test all
refrigerant tubing using an electronic leak detector, or liquid--soap
solution. If a refrigerant leak is detected, refer to Check for
Refrigerant Leaks section.
If no refrigerant leaks are found and low performance is suspected,
refer to Checking and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge section.
Indoor Airflow
The heating and/or cooling airflow does not require checking
unless improper performance is suspected. If a problem exists, be
sure that all supply-- and return--air grilles are open and free from
obstructions, and that the air filter is clean.
Pressure Switches -- Refrigerant Circuit
Pressure switches are protective devices integrated into the control
circuit (low voltage). They shut off compressor if abnormally high
or low pressures are present in the refrigeration circuit. These
pressure switches are specifically designed to operate with Puron
(R--410A) systems. R--22 pressure switches must not be used as
replacements for the Puron (R--410A) system.
Loss--of--Charge (Low Pressure)
This switch is located on the liquid line and protects against low
suction pressures caused by such events as loss of charge, low
airflow across indoor coil, dirty filters, etc. It opens if the system
pressure drops to about 20 psig. If system pressure is above this,
switch should be closed.
High--Pressure Switches (HPS &
The high--pressure switches are located on the discharge line and
protects against excessive condenser coil pressure. HPS opens at
670 psig shutting down the compressor, while HPS2 opens at 565,
limiting the compressor to low--stage operation only.
High pressure may be caused by a dirty outdoor coil, failed fan
motor, or outdoor air recirculation.
To check switches:
1. Turn off all power to unit.
2. Disconnect leads on switch.
Switch
HPS2)
3. Apply ohm meter leads across switch. You should have
continuity on a good switch.
NOTE:Because these switches are attached to refrigeration
system under pressure, it is not advisable to remove this device for
troubleshooting unless you are reasonably certain that a problem
exists. If switch must be removed, remove and recover all system
charge so that pressure gauges read 0 psi. Never open system
without breaking vacuum with dry nitrogen.
Copeland Scroll Compressor (Puron Refrigerant)
The compressor used in this product is specifically designed to
operate with Puron (R-- 410A) refrigerant and cannot be
interchanged.
The compressor is an electrical, as well as mechanical, device.
Exercise extreme caution when working near compressors. Power
should be shut off, if possible, for most troubleshooting techniques.
Refrigerants present additional safety hazards.
!
WARNING
EXPLOSION, FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death and/or property damage.
Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling refrigerants.
Keep torches and other ignition sources away from
refrigerants and oils.
The scroll compressor pumps refrigerant throughout the system by
the interaction of a stationary and an orbiting scroll. The scroll
compressor has no dynamic suction or discharge valves, and it is
more tolerant of stresses caused by debris, liquid slugging, and
flooded starts. The compressor is equipped with noise reducing
shutdown device and an internal pressure-- relief port. The
pressure--relief port is a safety device, designed to protect against
extreme high pressure. The relief port has an operating range
between 550 and 625 psi differential pressure.
Refrigerant System
This step covers the refrigerant system of the 577D----A, including
the compressor oil needed, servicing systems on roofs containing
synthetic materials, the filter drier, and refrigerant charging.
REFRIGERANT
!
WARNING
UNITOPERATION,SAFETYAND
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or equipment damage.
This system uses Puron (R--410A) refrigerant which has
higher operating pressures than R--22 and other refrigerants.
No other refrigerant may be used in this system. Gauge set,
hoses, and recovery system must be designed to handle
Puron. If you are unsure, consult the equipment
manufacturer.
COMPRESSOR OIL
If additional oil is needed use Uniqema RL32--3MAF. If this oil is
not available, use Copeland Ultra 32CC or Mobil Artic EAL22CC.
This oil is extremely hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water
readily. POE oils can absorb 15 times as much water as other oils
designed for HCFC and CFC refrigerants. Take all necessary
precautions to avoid exposure of the oil to the atmosphere.
SERVICING SYSTEMS ON ROOFS WITH S YNTHETIC
MATERIALS
POE (polyolester) compressor lubricants are known to cause long
term damage to some synthetic roofing materials.
577D-- --A
33
Exposure, even if immediately clean ed up, may cause
embrittlement (leading to cracking) to occur in one year or more.
When performing any service that may risk exposure of
compressor oil to the roof, take appropriate precautions to protect
roofing. Procedures which risk oil leakage include, but are not
limited to, compressor replacement, repairing refrigerant leaks, and
replacing refrigerant components such as filter drier, pressure
switch, metering device, coil, accumulator, or reversing valve.
Synthetic Roof Precautionary
1. Cover extended roof working area with an impermeable
polyethylene (plastic) drip cloth or tarp. Cover an
approximate 10 X 10 ft (3x3 m) area.
2. Cover area in front of the unit service panel with a terry
cloth shop towel to absorb lubricant spills and prevent
run--offs, and protect drop cloth from tears caused by tools
or components.
3. Place terry cloth shop towel inside unit immediately under
component(s) to be serviced and prevent lubricant run --offs
through the louvered openings in the unit base.
4. Perform required service.
5. Remove and dispose of any oil--contaminated material per
577D-- --A
local codes.
LIQUID--LINE FILTER DRIER
The filter drier is specifically designed to operate with Puron. Use
only factory--authorized components. Filter drier must be replaced
whenever the refrigerant system is opened. When removing a filter
drier, use a tubing cutter to cut the drier from the system. Do not
unsweat a filter drier from the system. Heat from unsweating will
release moisture and contaminants from drier into system.
PURON (R-- 410A) REFRIGERANT CHARGING
Refer to unit information p late and charging chart. Some R --410A
refrigerant cylinders contain a dip tube to allow liquid
refrigerant to flow from cylinder in upright position. For
cylinders equipped with a dip tube, charge Puron units with
cylinder in upright position and a commercial metering device in
manifold hose. Charge refrigerant into suction line.
Procedure
TROUBLESHOOTING
LED DESCRIPTION
LEDs built into Evolution control boards provide installer or
service person information concerning operation and/or fault
condition of the unit controls and ECM motor. This information is
also available at the system UI in text with basic troubleshooting
instructions. Careful use of information displayed will reduce the
need for extensive manual troubleshooting. See section B in
Start-- Up & Troubleshooting and Table 4, as well as the UI
instructions,foradditionalinformation.Additional
Troubleshooting information can be found in Table 9 and 10.
MAJOR COMPONENTS
2--STAGE HP/AC BOARD
The two--stage HP/AC control board controls the following
functions:
-- Low-- and high-- stage compressor operation
-- Outdoor fan motor operation
-- Reversing valve operation
-- Defrost operation
-- Low ambient cooling
-- Crankcase heater operation
-- Compressor external protection
-- Pressure switch monitoring (refrigerant)
-- Time delays
FURNACE BOARD
The furnace board controls the following functions:
-- Indoor blower operation
-- G a s v a l v e
-- Inducer motor
-- Remote sparker module
-- Pressure switch monitoring (gas)
SYSTEMS COMMUNICATION FAILURE
If communication with the Evolution Control is lost with the UI,
the controls will flash the appropriate fault codes. Check the wiring
to the UI, indoor and outdoor units.
MODEL PLUG
The HP/AC control board must have a valid model plug to operate.
If a valid model plug is not detected, it will not operate and the
control will flash the appropriate fault code, shown in Table 4.
PRESSURE SWITCH PROTECTION--REFRIGERANT
The unit is equipped with high-- and low--pressure switches. If the
control senses the opening of a high-- or low--pressure switch, it
will respond as follows:
1. De--energize the compressor contactor (HPS1 & LPS) or the
compressor solenoid contactor (HPS2).
2. Keep the outdoor fan operating for 15 minutes.
3. Display the appropriate fault codes.
4. After a 15 minute delay, if there is still a call for cooling and
the LPS or HPS is reset, the compressor contactor is
energized.
5. If LPS or HPS has not closed after a 15 minute delay, the
outdoor fan is turned off. If the open switch closes anytime
after the 15--minute delay, then resume operation with a call
for cooling.
6. If LPS or HPS trips 3 consecutive cycles, the unit operation
is locked out for 4 hours.
7. In the event of a high--pressure switch trip or high pressure
lockout, check the refrigerant charge, outdoor fan operation
and outdoor coil for airflow restrictions.
8. In the event of a low--pressure switch trip or low pressure
lockout, check the refrigerant charge and indoor airflow.
CONTROL FAULT
If the HP/AC control board has failed, the control will flash the
appropriate fault code (See Table 4). The control board should be
replaced.
BROWN OUT PROTECTION
If the line voltage is less than 187v for at least 4 seconds, the
appropriate compressor contactor and fan relay are de--energized.
Compressor and fan operation are not allowed until voltage is a
minimum of 190v. The control will flash the appropriate fault
code (See Table 4).
230V LINE (POWER DISCONNECT) DETECTION
If there is no 230v at the compressor contactor when the unit is
powered and cooling demand exists, the appropriate error code is
displayed. Verify that the disconnect is closed and 230v wiring is
connected to the unit.
COMPRESSOR VOLTAGE SENSING
The control board input terminals VS and L2 (See Fig. 18) are
used to detect compressor voltage status, and alert the user of
potential problems. The control continuously monitors the high
voltage on the run capacitor of the compressor motor. Voltage
should be present any time the compressor contactor is energized,
and voltage should not be present when the contactor is
de--energized.
CONTACTOR SHORTED DETECTION
If there is compressor voltage sensed when there is no demand for
compressor operation, the contactor may be stuck closed or there is
a wiring error. The control will flash the appropriate fault code.
COMPRESSOR THERMAL CUTOUT
If the control senses the compressor voltage after start-- up, and is
then absent for 10 consecutive seconds while cooling demand
34
exists, the thermal protector is open. The control de--energizes the
compressor contactor for 15 minutes, but continues to operate the
outdoor fan. The control Status LED will flash the appropriate
code shown in Table 4. After 15 minutes, with a call for low or
high stage cooling, the compressor contactor is energized. If the
thermal protector has not re--set, the outdoor fan is turned off. If
the call for cooling continues, the control will energize the
compressor contactor every 15 minutes. If the thermal protector
closes (at the next 15 minute interval), check the unit will resume
operation.
If the thermal cutout trips for three consecutive cycles, then unit
operation is locked out for 4 hours and the appropriate fault code is
displayed.
NO 230V AT COMPRESSOR
If the compressor voltage is not sensed when the compressor
should be starting, the contactor may be stuck open or there is a
wiring error. The control will flash the appropriate fault code.
Check the contactor and control box wiring.
TROUBLESHOOTING UNIT FOR PROPER SWITCHING
BETWEEN LOW & HIGH STAGES
Check the suction pressures at the service valves. Suction pressure
should be reduced by 3--10% when switching from low to high
capacity.
NOTE: The liquid pressures are very similar between low and
high stage operation, so liquid pressure should not be used for
troubleshooting.
Compressor current should increase 20--45% when switching from
low to high stage. The compressor solenoid, when energized in
high stage, should measure 24vac.
COMPRESSOR INTERNAL RELIEF
The compressor is protected by an internal pressure relief (IPR)
which relieves discharge gas into compressor shell when
differential between suction and discharge pressures exceeds 550 -625 psi. The compressor is also protected by an internal overload
attached to motor windings.
TEMPERATURE THERMISTORS
Thermistors are electronic devices which sense temperature. As the
temperature increases, the resistance decreases. Thermistors are
used to sense outdoor ambient (OAT) and coil temperature (OCT).
Refer to Fig. 28 for resistance values versus temperature. See Fig.
29 for OCT location.
If the outdoor ambient or coil thermistor should fail, the HP/AC
control will flash the appropriate fault code (See Table 4).
IMPORTANT: Coil thermistor is factory mounted. Check to
insure thermistor is mounted properly. Outdoor air thermistor
(OAT) is field mounted and connected. Verify that the OAT has
been properly installed.
THERMISTOR SENSOR COMPARISON
The control continuously monitors and compares the outdoor air
temperature sensor and outdoor coil temperature sensor to ensure
proper operating conditions. The comparison is:
S In cooling mode, if the outdoor air sensor indicates ≥ 10 _F
(5.5_C) warmer than the coil sensor (or) the outdoor air sensor
indicates ≥ 20_F(11.0_C) cooler than the coil sensor, the sensors
are out of range.
S In heating if the outdoor air sensor indicates ≥ 35_F (19.3_C)
warmer than the coil sensor (or) the outdoor air sensor indicates
≥ 10_F(5.5_C) cooler than the coil sensor, the sensors are out of
range.
If the sensors are out of range, the control will flash the appropriate
fault code as shown in Table 4.
The thermistor comparison is not performed during low ambient
cooling operation.
FAILED THERMISTOR DEFAULT OPERATION
Factory defaults have been provided in the event of failure of
outdoor air thermistor and/or coil thermistor.
If the OAT sensor should fail, low ambient cooling will not be
allowed and the one-- minute outdoor fan off delay will not occur.
Defrost will be initiated based on coil temperature and time.
If the OCT sensor should fail, low ambient cooling will not be
allowed. Defrost will occur at each time interval during heating
operation, but will terminate after 5 minutes.
If there is a thermistor out of range error, defrost will occur at each
time interval during heating operation, but will terminate after 5
minutes.
Refer to the Troubleshooting Chart (Table 9 and 10) for additional
troubleshooting information.
IMPORTANT: Before leaving job, be sure to do the following:
1. Ensure that all wiring is routed away from tubing and sheet
metal edges to prevent rub--through or wire pinching.
2. Ensure that all wiring and tubing is secure in unit before
adding panels and covers. Securely fasten all panels and
covers.
3. Tighten service valve stem caps to 1/2--turn past finger
tight.
4. Leave Users Manual with owner. Explain system operation
and periodic maintenance requirements outlined in manual.
5. Fill out Start--Up Checklist located at the back of this
manual and place in customer file.
