Base Unit Operation
COOLING — Unit power on. System selector switch at
COOL; fan switch at AUTO.; thermostat at a setting
Economizer Operation — If unit is equipped with
modulating outdoor air control (economizer), it should
operate as follows;
below room temperature.
50DPE014 and 50DP016 — Compressor starts unloaded
on closure of No. 1 contact in thermostat.
Additional rise in room temperature closes contact
No. 2 in thermostat which de-energizes the unloader coil.
Compressor is now fully loaded.
Check cooling effects at a setting below room tempera
ture. Check unit charge. Refer to Service, Refrigerant
Charge.
Reset thermostat at a temperature above room tem
perature. Compressor(s) will shut off.
50DP,DPE012 and 50DP014.020 — Upon a rise in room
temperature, cooling contact No. 1 in the thermostat
closes, energizing the first-stage cooling contactor and the
indoor fan contactor. The first-stage compressor, out
door fan motor and indoor fan motor start and run.
Upon a further rise in room temperature, cooling
contact No. 2 in the thermostat closes, energizing the
second-stage cooling contactor. The second-stage
compressor starts and runs.
COOLING MODE — Indoor and outdoor fans and com
pressor energize when there is a call for cooling and
enthalpy of outdoor air is above enthalpy control setting.
The economizer damper moves to VENT position.
Indoor fan starts and economizer damper opens fully
on a first-stage call for cooling when enthalpy of outdoor
air is below the enthalpy control setting. Compressor
remains off.
Compressor is energized and mechanical cooling
integrates with economizer cooling upon a second-
stage call for cooling. If outdoor air temperature falls
below 50 F, cooling lockout switch prevents compressor
from operating.
Economizer damper modulates when mixed air tem
perature is below mixed air thermostat setting.
A freeze protection thermostat (FPT) is located on the
indoor coil. It detects ice buildup and turns off the
compressor, thus allowing the coil to clear. Once ice
melts, the compressor can be re-energized.
To Shut Off Unit — Set system selector switch at OFF
position or reset thermostat above room temperature.
Units with Signal-LOC™ protection device shut down on
any safety trip and thermostat light comes on. Determine
reason for safety trip. Restart 50DPE014 and 50DP016,
020 compressor(s) by resetting circuit breaker at unit.
HEATING MODE — Outdoor air damper stays at
VENT position while indoor air fan runs.
NOTE: If fan switch is at ON position, and room thermo
stat is satisfied, damper goes to ventilation position.

Variable Volume Units — Units suitable for use with
variable volume air handling systems are equipped with 2
electric unloaders on the compressor. The control panel
for these units (Fig. 18) consists of a step controller, a
proportional thermostat, a 7-day timer and a power
switch.
Before starting unit, open compressor service valves
and liquid line shutoff valve. Be sure compressor crank-
ease heaters have been on for 24 hours and that crankcase
oil level indicates half full.
CONTROL SEQUENCE CHECKOUT
1. Turn on unit main power supply. Be sure unit is ready
to operate.
2. Set variable volume control panel POWER switch
at ON.
3. If supply air leaving unit is above 50 F (or other fieldset temperature), step controller will operate to de
energize compressor unloader solenoids (compressor
loads up) until set temperature is achieved. An interval
of 13.5 minutes is required to maximum loading
position. Refer to unit label diagram for unloader
sequencing. Also see Fig. 19.
4. Step controller, 7-day timer and proportional thermo
stat are factory set and adjusted. If other settings
or changes in adjustment are required, refer to dis
cussion of these items.
SEVEN-DAY TIMER ADJUSTMENT — Factory
settings are ON — 6:30 A.M.; OFF — 7:30 P.M. for each
of 7 days.
1. On the timer dial face (Fig. 18), loosen the thumb
screws which position the system ON and OFF
trippers.
2. Set trippers at desired system ON and OFF time
settings and tighten thumbscrews. Skipping a day(s) is
accomplished by removing trippers from the dial.
3. Set the timer by turning the dial face clockwise until
fixed pointer indicates correct day and time. Do not
turn dial face counterclockwise. Do not move fixed
pointer.
PROPORTIONAL THERMOSTAT — The propor
tional thermostat. Fig. 18, monitors temperature of the
conditioned air leaving unit. On signal from the thermo
stat, sequence motor operates cam switches to load or
unload compressor to maintain thermostat setting.
Thermostat is factory set at 50 F ± 6 F but may be reset
between 0°F and 100F as follows:
Temperature Setting — Turn knob on front of case until
pointer indicates desired set point temperature. This is
the center point of proportional range.
Range Adjustment — Remove cover and turn adjustment
wheel until pointer indicates desired range.
If sequencer motor shaft constantly moves back and
forth, increase proportional thermostat range (about 5 F
at a time) until system is stable.

able to operate at any point on the 160 angular degrees of
camshaft rotation. The differential of each system may be
adjusted from a minimum of 5 angular degrees to a maxi
mum limited only by the 160 angular degrees of camshaft
rotation.
Rotational direction is controlled by the proportional
thermostat through the step controller feedback poten
tiometer and balancing relay.
Determining Switch Settings — Switches are factory set
at angular settings as shown m Fig. 19 (also shown on unit
label diagram). To reset, if desired, determine angular
differential for each switch and between switches. Then
determine minimum differential or throttling range of
proportional thermostat to provide desired step con
troller differential or throttling range. This range should
be wide enough to prevent rapid cycling from one
capacity step to another. Then adjust cams to new settings
as required.
