CAUTION
Initial Power-Up
The MicroTech III circuit board incorporates static sensitive de-
vices. A static charge from touching the device can damage the
electronic components. To help prevent damage during service,
use static discharge wrist straps.Static discharge wrist straps
are grounded to the heat pump chassis through a 1 Mohm resistor.
Pre start check list:
A random start delay time between 180 and 240 seconds is
generated at power up.

General Use and Information
The MicroTech III unit controller is provided with two drive
terminals, R (24VAC), and C (0VAC) that can be used to
drive the thermostat inputs (G, Y1, Y2, W1, and W2) and
control inputs (U, E and O). Any combination of or single
board drive terminal (R, or C) may be used to operate the Mi-
croTech III’s unit controller or thermostat inputs. Some of the
control inputs are used within the Water Source Heat Pump
and not accessible to the end user without a eld service tool
(laptop with appropriate software).
Typically the MicroTech III unit controller's R (24VAC)
terminal is used to drive the board’s thermostat inputs and
control inputs by connecting it to the R terminal of an industry standard thermostat. The control outputs of the standard
thermostat are then connected to the MicroTech III unit
controller's thermostat inputs and control inputs as needed.
Any remaining board input(s) may be operated by additional
thermostat outputs or remote relays (dry contacts only).
All MicroTech III unit controller inputs must be operated by
dry contacts powered by the control board’s power terminals.
No solid state devices (Triacs) may be used to operate MicroTech III unit controller inputs. No outside power sources may
be used to operate MicroTech III. All units must be properly
grounded per local code requirements. See the Installation
and Maintenance bulletin specic to your Water Source Heat
Pump.
Occupied Operation
ellow
Y
Of
The board will be in occupied mode if the unoccupied
terminal (U) is de-energized.
Thermostat Inputs (G, Y1, Y2, W1 and W2)
Thermostat inputs used during occupied operation are G, Y1,
and W1, which when energized will activate the Fan Only,
Cooling Mode, and Heating Mode respectively. Input W2
and Y2 work the same as W1 and Y2 respectively for single
circuit units in occupied mode. For information on W2 and
Y2 for dual circuit units, refer to "Dual Circuit Units" on page
17.

The MicroTech III unit controller is congured so that when
either the Y1 or W1 input is energized the unit fan is also
activated with Cooling or Heating Modes. In other words,
energizing Y1 and G together will have the same effect as en-
ergizing just Y1. The W1 input has priority over the Y1 input.
In situations when both inputs W1 and Y1 become energized
(unlikely) in any order the unit will go into the Heating Mode
as described below:
1. If the unit is in Cooling Mode, Y1 is energized. If W1
becomes energized and remains energized, the following
will occur:
• The compressor de-energizes.
• The compressor restarts at 180 seconds (powerup
delay timer).
• The reversing valve output energizes within 5 to 20
seconds of the compressor being energized (Heating
Mode position), depending on the conguration of
jumpers JP7 and JP8.
2. If the unit is in Cooling Mode, Y1 is energized. If W1
becomes energized momentarily, the controller deenergizes the compressor for 180 seconds (shortcycle
timer) and then returns to the cooling mode.
3. However, if the unit is in Heating Mode, W1 is energized.
If Y1 becomes energized the unit remains in Heating
Mode.
4. Y2 is the second stage cooling, and applies to dual
compressor units.
Control Inputs (HP, LP, SLTS, COF, U, E, O)
The control inputs are High Pressure (HP), Low Pressure
(LP), Suction Line Temperature Sensor (SLTS), Condensate
Overow (COF), Unoccupied (U), and Remote Shutdown
(E). The control inputs are in normal states during occupied
mode. The state of each control in occupied mode during
normal operation is as follows:
• High / Low Pressure (HP, LP): energizes, switch is closed
(no fault).
• Suction Line Temperature Sensor (SLTS): temperature
sensor on the suction line which provides low temperature
protection. Condensate Overow(COF):sensing no
condensate water (no fault).
• Unoccupied (U): de-energized (no signal).
• Remote Shutdown (E): de-energized (no signal).
• Tenant Override (O): has no effect in occupied mode.
OM 931-4 / Page 7 of 28
Control Outputs {A and IV/PR (H8)}
The control outputs are Alarm Fault (A) and Isolation Valve
/ Pump Request {IV/PR (H8)}. The operation of the control
outputs during occupied mode is as follows:
• Alarm Fault (A): energized (no fault).
• Isolation Valve / Pump Request {IV/PR (H8)}: is
selectable to be energized when the compressor is off
(normally closed), or when the compressor is on (normally
open), by moving the wire lead to the appropriate
terminal.
Figure 3: H8 Terminals on MicroTech III Board
Fan Operation
The G terminal controls continuous fan operation. The fan
runs continuously when the G terminal is energized. When the
G terminal is de-energized, the fan cycles with the compressor.
Cooling Mode
The Y1 terminal controls the Cooling Mode of operation.
When the Y1 terminal is energized (24VAC), the following
occurs:
1. The fan energizes.
2. The IV/PR (H8) control output de-energizes or energizes
depending on the H8 terminal wiring (refer to Table 1 on
page 4 & Figure 1 on page 5).
3. The compressor energizes after 30 seconds.
4. If the reversing valve output is energized, the reversing
valve out put will be de-energize within 5 to 20 seconds
of the compressor being energized, depending on the
conguration of jumpers JP7 and JP8.
When the Y1 terminal is de-energized, the following occurs:
1. The compressor de-energizes.
2. The fan de-energizes, unless the G terminal is energized
(24VAC).
3. The IV/PR (H8) control output energizes or deenergizes
depending on the H8 terminal wiring (refer to Table 1 on
page 4 & Figure 1 on page 5).
4. The reversing valve output remains de-energized.
Note: To prevent compressor cycling, the required minimum
on/off time default is 180 seconds. This may cause
the compressor time delay to be longer than indicated
above.
Heating Mode
The W1 terminal controls the occupied Heating Mode of
operation. When the W1 terminal is energized, the following
occurs:
1. The fan energizes
2. The IV/PR (H8) control output de-energizes or energizes
depending on the H8 terminal wiring (refer to Table 1 on
page 4 & Figure 1 on page 5).
3. The compressor energizes after 30 seconds.
4. If the reversing valve output is de-energized, the reversing
valve output will be energize within 5 to 20 seconds
of the compressor being energized, depending on the
conguration of jumpers JP7 and JP8.
When the W1 terminal is de-energized, the following occurs:
1. The compressor de-energizes.
2.The fan de-energizes, unless the G terminal is energized.
3. The IV/PR (H8) control output energizes or deenergizes
depending on H8 terminal wiring (refer to Table 1 on page
4 & Figure 1 on page 5).
4. The reversing valve output remains energized.
Note: To prevent compressor cycling, the required minimum
on/off time default is 180 seconds. This may cause
the compressor time delay to be longer than indicated
above.

Control Inputs (HP, LP, SLTS, COF, U, E, O)
The control inputs are High Pressure (HP), Low Pressure
(LP), Suction Line Temperature Sensor (SLTS), Condensate
Overow (COF), Unoccupied (U), and Remote Shutdown
(E). The state of each control input during unoccupied mode
during normal operation is as follows:
■ High / Low Pressure (HP, LP): energizes, switch is closed
(no fault).
■ Suction Line Temperature Sensor (SLTS): greater than
setpoint unit operates (no fault).
■ Condensate Overow (COF): sensing no condensate
water (no fault).
■ Unoccupied (U): energizes (signal provided).
■ Remote Shutdown (E): de-energizes (no signal).
■ Tenant Override (O): see "Tenant Override" on page 11.
Control Outputs {A and IV/PR (H8)}
The control outputs provided by the MicroTech III unit
controller are Alarm Fault (A) and Isolation Valve / Pump
Request (IV/PR (H8)). The operation of the control outputs
during unoccupied mode is the same as in occupied mode
(see "Occupied Operation" on page 7).
Fan Operation
The G terminal has no effect during unoccupied mode.
Cooling Mode
Cooling operation is not available during unoccupied mode.
Heating Mode
The W2 terminal controls the unoccupied Heating Mode of
operation. When the W2 terminal is energized the following
occurs:
1. The fan energizes.
2. The IV/PR (H8) control output energizes or deenergizes
depending on H8 terminal wiring (refer to Table 1 on page
4 & Figure 1, page 5).
3. The compressor will start 30 seconds later.
4. If the reversing valve output is de-energized, the reversing
valve output will energize within 5 to 20 seconds of
the compressor being energized, depending on the
conguration of jumpers JP7 and JP8.
When the W2 terminal is de-energized the following occurs:
1. The compressor de-energizes.
2. The IV/PR (H8) control output energizes or deenergizes
depending on H8 terminal wiring (refer to Table 1 on page
4 & Figure 1, page 5).
3. The reversing valve remains energized.
Note:To prevent compressor cycling, the required
minimum on/off time default is 180 seconds. This
may cause the compressor time delay to be longer
than indicated above.
Additional Operating Modes
Brownout
ellow
Y
Of
Brownout condition is provided to protect the water source
heat pump’s motor electrical damage due to low voltage
conditions.
The MicroTech III unit controller is designed to monitor the
24VAC power supply to the board. If the line voltage supplied
to the water source heat pump drops, the 24VAC supply to the
control board will also drop. When the line voltage supplied
to the unit drops below approximately 80% of the unit nameplate rated value, the controller goes into brownout condition.
The controller remains in brownout condition until line volt-
age returns to approximately 90% of the unit nameplate value.
When in brownout condition, thermostat and control inputs
have no affect upon unit operation. No faults or modes have
higher priority than a brownout fault condition. Remote
shutdown and brownout conditions have the same level of
priority. See "Priority of Faults and Modes" on page 12 and
Table 3 on page 12.
When the unit is in brownout condition the following occurs:
1. The compressor de-energizes.
2. The reversing valve de-energizes.
3. The fan de-energizes.
4. Fault terminal (A) de-energizes (fault). A to C will be used
to indicate an alarm signal.
When the line voltage supplied to the unit returns to accept-
able levels (~90% of nameplate) the controller returns to the
current mode.
Remote Shutdown
ellow
Y
Flash
When the E terminal is grounded, the MicroTech III unit
controller enters remote shutdown mode. Remote shutdown
is provided so that when properly connected to a building
automation system, remote switch, etc., the E terminal can be
used to shut down the water source heat pump.
