WARNING
Mounting Wiring Subbase
1. Mount the subbase in any position except horizon-
tally with the bifurcated contacts pointing down. The
standard vertical position is recommended. Any
other position decreases the maximum ambient
temperature rating.
2. Select a location on a wall, burner or electrical panel.
The Q7800 can be mounted directly in the control
cabinet. Be sure to allow adequate clearance for servicing, installation, access or removal of the relay
module, Expanded Annunciator, Keyboard Display
Module, flame amplifier, flame amplifier signal voltage probes, Run/Test Switch, electrical signal voltage probes and electrical field connections.
3. For surface mounting, use the back of the subbase
as a template to mark the four screw locations. Drill
the pilot holes.
4. Securely mount the subbase using four no. 6 screws.
Wiring Subbase
NOTE: There are several different subbase models that
can be purchased. It is important to note which
subbase is compatible with the relay module
when purchasing repair or replacement parts.
Series 1000 Subbase
All relay product codes that start with a 1 (example:
RM7840G1
Q7800A1005/U. These relays can also be used on the
Series 2000 subbase noted below.
Series 2000 Subbase
All relay product codes that start with a 2 (example:
RM7840G2
Q7800A2005/U.

Bus™ Module must be wired in daisy chain configuration, 1(a)-1(a), 2(b)-2(b), 3(c)-3(c). The order of interconnection of
all the devices listed above is not important. Be aware that modules on the closest and farthest end of the daisy chain
configuration string require a 120 ohm (1/4 watt minimum) resistor termination across terminals 1 and 2 of the electrical connectors for connections over 100 feet (31 meters).
Table 2. Recommended Grounding Practices.
Ground TypeRecommended Practice
Earth ground (subbase and relay
module).
1. Use to provide a connection between the subbase and the control panel of the
equipment. Earth ground must be capable of conducting enough current to
blow the 20A fuse (or breaker) in the event of an internal short circuit.
2. Use wide straps or brackets to provide minimum length, maximum surface area
ground conductors. If a leadwire is required, use 14 AWG copper wire.
3. Make sure that mechanically tightened joints along the ground path are free of
nonconductive coatings and protected against corrosion on mating surfaces.
Signal ground (Keyboard Display
Module, Data ControlBus™ Module,
Communications Interface
Use the shield of the signal wire to ground the device to the signal ground terminal
3(c) of each device. Connect the shield at both ends of the daisy chain to earth
ground.
ControlBus™ Module.
7. Recommended wire routing of leadwires:
a. Do not run high voltage ignition transformer
wires in the same conduit with the flame
detector, Data ControlBus Module™, or Remote
Reset Module wiring.
b. Do not route flame detector, Data ControlBus™
Module, or Remote Reset Module leadwires in
conduit with line voltage circuits.
c. Enclose flame detector leadwires without armor
cable in metal cable or conduit.
d. Follow directions in flame detector, Data
ControlBus™ Module, or Remote Reset Module
Instructions.
8. The KDM is powered from a low voltage, energy lim-
ited source. It can be mounted outside of a control
panel if it is protected from mechanical damage.
NOTE: A 13 Vdc power supply must be used any time
more than one KDM is used.
9. Maximum wire lengths:
a. RM7895A,B,C,D/EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D
leadwires: The maximum leadwire length is 300
feet to terminal inputs (Control,
Running/Lockout Interlock).
b. Flame Detector leadwires: The maximum flame
sensor leadwire length is limited by the flame
signal strength.
c. Remote Reset leadwires: The maximum length of
wire is 1000 feet (305 meters) to a Remote Reset
pushbutton.
d. Data ControlBus Module™: The maximum Data
ControlBus™ Module cable length depends on
the number of system modules connected, the
noise conditions and the cable used. The
maximum length of all Data ControlBus™
Module interconnecting wire is 4000 feet (1219
meters).
10. Be sure loads do not exceed the terminal ratings.
Refer to the label on the
RM7895A,B,C,D/EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D or to
the terminal ratings in Table 3.
Final Wiring Check
1. Check the power supply circuit. The voltage and
frequency tolerance must match those of the
RM7895A,B,C,D/EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D. A
separate power supply circuit can be required for the
RM7895A,B,C,D/EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D. Add
the required disconnect means and overload
protection.
2. Check all wiring circuits and complete Static Check-
out in Table 6 before installing the RM7895A,B,C,D/
EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D on the subbase.
3. Install all electrical connectors.
4. Restore power to the panel.

OPERATION
Sequence of Operation
The RM7895A,B,C,D/EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D has the
operating sequences listed below; see Fig. 2 and 3. The
RM7895A,B,C,D/EC7895A,C; RM7896A,B,C,D LED
provide positive visual indication of the program
sequence: POWER, PILOT, FLAME, MAIN and ALARM.
Initiate
The EC7895A,C/RM7895A,B,C,D;RM7896A,B,C,D Relay
Module enters the INITIATE sequence when the relay
module is powered. The EC7895A,C/RM7895A,B,C,D;
RM7896A,B,C,D can also enter the INITIATE sequence if
the relay module verifies voltage fluctuations of +10/15% or frequency fluctuations of ±10% during any part of
the operating sequence. The INITIATE sequence lasts for
ten seconds unless the voltage or frequency tolerances
are not met. When not met, a hold condition is initiated
and displayed on the optional KDM for at least five
seconds; when met, the INITIATE sequence restarts. If the
condition is not corrected and the hold condition exists for
four minutes, the EC7895A,C/RM7895A,B,C,D;
RM7896A,B,C,D locks out. Causes for hold conditions in
the INITIATE sequence:
1. AC line dropout detection.
2. AC line noise that can prevent a sufficient reading of
the line voltage inputs.
3. Low line voltage brownouts.
The INITIATE sequence also delays the burner motor
starter from being energized and de-energized from an
intermittent AC line input or control input.
Standby
The EC7895A,C/RM7895A,B,C,D;RM7896A,B,C,D is ready
to start an operating sequence when the operating control
input determines a call for heat is present. The burner
switch, limits, operating limit control and all
microcomputer-monitored circuits must be in the correct
state for the relay module to continue into the PREPURGE
sequence.
Normal Start-Up Prepurge
The EC7895A,C/RM7895A,B,C,D/RM7896A,B,C,D Relay
Module provides PREPURGE timing selectable from two
seconds to thirty minutes with power applied and the
operating control indicating a call for heat.
1. The Airflow Interlock, burner switch, Run/Test switch
and all microcomputer-monitored circuits must also
be in the correct operating state.
2. The motor output, terminal 4, is powered to start the
PREPURGE sequence.
3. The Airflow Interlock input closes ten seconds into
PREPURGE or within the specified purge card timing; otherwise, a recycle to the beginning of PREPURGE or lockout occurs, depending on how the
Airflow Switch selectable jumper (JR3) is configured.
Ignition Trials
1. Pilot Flame Establishing Period (PFEP):
a. When the PFEP begins:
(1) The pilot valve and ignition transformer,
terminals 8 and 10, are energized. The
EC7895A, RM7895A,B, and RM7896A,B have
an intermittent pilot valve, terminal 8. The
EC7895C, RM7895C,D, and RM7896C,D
have an interrupted pilot valve, terminal 8.
(2) Flame must be proven by the end of the ten
second PFEP (four seconds if Configuration
Jumper JR1 is clipped) to allow the sequence
to continue. If a flame is not proven by the
end of PFEP, a safety shutdown occurs.
b. With flame proven, the ignition, terminal 10, is
de-energized.
NOTE: For the RM7895C1020 and RM7896C1036, during
the first 8 seconds of PFEP, when a flame signal is
detected, terminal 10 is de-energized. If the flame
signal is lost, terminal 10 will re-energize.
2. Main Flame Establishing Period (MFEP):
a. After PFEP, and with the presence of flame, the
main fuel valve, terminal 9, is powered. If a
flameout occurs, the relay module locks out or
recycles (depending on status of jumper JR2)
within 0.8 or 3 seconds, depending on the Flame
Failure Response Time (FFRT) of the amplifier.
b. The EC7895C, RM7895C,D and RM7896C,D
have a ten second MFEP. After the Ignition Trials,
the pilot valve, terminal 8, is de-energized. If a
flameout occurs, the relay module locks out or
recycles (depending on status of jumper JR2)
within 0.8 or 3 seconds, depending on the Flame
Failure Response Time (FFRT) of the amplifier.
Run
1. The EC7895C, RM7895C,D, RM7896C,D has a
delayed main valve that is energized once the RUN
period is entered.
2. The relay module is now in RUN and remains in RUN
until the controller input, terminal 6, opens, indicating that the demand is satisfied or a limit has
opened.
Post Purge (RM7896A,B,C,D Only)
After demand is satisfied or a limit opens, de-energizing
terminal 6, the Ignition/Pilot valve, main valve and
delayed main valve, terminals 8, 9 and 21, are deenergized. The blower motor, terminal 4, remains powered
for 15 seconds.

Run/Test Switch (RM/EC7895C,D;
RM7896C,D only)
The Run/Test Switch is located on the top side of the relay
module, see Fig. 5. The Run/Test Switch allows the burner
sequence to be altered as follows:
1. In the measured PREPURGE sequence, the
Run/Test Switch, placed in the TEST position,
causes the PREPURGE timing to stop.
2. In the Pilot Flame Establishing Period, the Run/Test
Switch, placed in the TEST position, stops the timer
during the first eight seconds of a ten-second PFEP
selection or during the first three seconds of a foursecond PFEP selection. It also allows for pilot turndown test and other burner adjustments. This activates a fifteen-second flameout timer that permits
pilot flame adjustment without nuisance safety
shutdowns. The Run/Test Switch is ignored during
PFEP for the C and D relay modules if terminals 8
and 9 or 9 and 21 are jumpered.
IMPORTANT
When the relay module is switched to the TEST
mode, it stops and holds at the next Run/Test
Switch point in the operating sequence. Make sure
that the Run/Test Switch is in the RUN position
before leaving the installation.
