IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT EFFICIENCY
AND INDOOR AIR
QUALITY
Central cooling and heating equipment is only as efficient as the duct
system that carries the cooled or
heated air. To maintain efficiency,
comfort and good indoor air quality, it
is important to have the proper balance between the air being supplied
to each room and the air returning to
the cooling and heating equipment.
Proper balance and sealing of the
duct system improves the efficiency
of the heating andair conditioning
system and improves the indoor air
quality of the home by reducing the
amount of airborne pollutants that
enter homes from spaces where the
ductwork and / or equipment is located. The manufacturer and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency’s
Energy Star Program recommend
that central duct systems be checked
by a qualified contractor for proper
balance and sealing.

area, be certain to install an auxil-
iary condensate drain pan under
the entire unit. Extend this auxil-
iary drain pan under any evaporator coil installed with the furnace
and the open portion of the con-
densate drain assembly. See
“Condensate Drain/Neutralizer”
section for more details.
2. IMPORTANT: If using a cooling
evaporator coil with this furnace.
Be sure the air passes over the
heat exchanger before passing
over the cooling coil. The cooled
air passing over the warm ambient
air inside the heat exchanger
tubes can cause condensation
inside the
sion and eventual failure.
3. IMPORTANT: Install the furnace
level. If it is not level, condensate
cannot drain properly, possibly
causing furnace shut down.
NOTE: These furnaces are approved
for installation in attics, as well as
alcoves, utility rooms, closets and
crawlspaces. Make provisions to pre-
vent freezing of condensate.
4. IMPORTANT: If this furnace is
installed in a garage, attic or any
other unconditioned space, a selfregulating heat tape must be
installed around the condensate
trap and along the entire length of
the condensate drain in the unconditioned space.
The heat tape should meet the following requirements:
a. The heat tape must be UL listed.

SUPPLY AIR SENSOR
Each furnace comes shipped from the
factory with a supply air sensor. Install
the sensor, in the supply air plenum
trunk, with two, field supplied, #8 sheet
metal screws, using the following guidelines:
1. 12” downstream of the evaporator
coil, if installed.
2. If no evaporator coil is used, locate
the sensor out of direct line-of-site
of the heat exchanger and not closer than 18” downstream of the furnace outlet.
3. Attach the supply air sensor wires
onto the terminals marked “SA
Sensor” on the integrated furnace
control board (See Figure 13).
4. Do not extend the supply-air sensor
wire.
NOTE: Improper placement of the
supply air sensor can adversely
affect furnace temperature rise.
NOTE: In downflow circumstances
where building construction does not
allow for the placement of the sensor to
fall within these parameters, the supply
air sensor should not be connected.
This means that the furnace will run
under default parameters. When running under default parameters, the “82”
code will appear for 90 seconds. After
that, the fault code will be stored in the
control board’s memory and will show
only upon power cycling. Default airflow
parameters can be manually adjusted.
See section discussing Integrated
Furnace Control (IFC) board in this
manual.
For communicating systems, the
supply air se
off so that a fault code will not be
displayed at all. This can be done in
the furnace setup menu of a communicating thermostat. See the section

INSTALLATION WITH
PRE-EXISTING VENT
SYSTEMS
When the installation of this furnace
replaces an existing furnace that is
removed from a vent system serving
other appliances (such as a water
heater), the existing vent system is likely
to be too large to proper
remaining attached appliances.
Follow the steps below with each appliance remaining connected to the original common vent system. Place the
appliance to be tested in operation,
while the other appliances remaining
connected to the common vent system
are not in operation. Test the operation
of each appliance individually by the following method.
1. Permanently seal any unused
openings in the common venting
system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system
f
or proper size and horizontal pitch
and determine that there is no
blockage, restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies which
could cause an unsafe condition.
3. If practical, close all building doors,
windows and all doors between the
space where the appliances
remaining connected to the common venting system are located.
Turn on clothes dryers and any
appliance not connected to the
ly vent the
common venting system. Turn
on any exhaust fans, such as
range hoods and ba
exhausts, so they will operate at
maximum speed. Do not operate
a summer exhaust fan. Close
fireplace dampers.
4. Follow the lighting instructions.
Place the appliance being
inspected into operation. Adjust
the thermostat so the appliance
will operate continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood
relief opening after 5 minutes of
main burner operation. Use the
flame of a match or candle, or
smoke from a cigarette, cigar
or pipe.
6. After it has been determined
each appliance that remains connected to the common venting
system properly vents (when
tested as outlined above), return
doors, windows, exhaust fans,
fireplace dampers and any other
gas-burning appliance to their
previous conditions of use.
7. If improper venting is observed
during any of the above tests,
resize the common venting sys-
tem. Refer to latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1, or the CSA-GAMA venting tables for Category I furnaces
.
NOTE: For U.S. installations
only. Schedule 40 ABS-DWV
pipe and fittings may be used as
an alternate to PVC pipe for the
combustion air inlet and vent
pipes.
NOTE: For U.S. installations

Provide adequate facilities for combustion and ventilation air in accordance with section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANS
Z223.1 - latest edition; CAN/CGA
B149.1 and .2, or applicable provisions of the local building codes.
These combustion and ventilation
facilities must not be obstructed.
IMPORTANT: Air for combustion and
ventilation must not come from a
corrosive atmosphere. Any furnace
failure due to corrosive elements in
the atmosphere is excluded from
warranty coverage.

The following types of installation (but
not limited to the following) REQUIRE
OUTDOOR AIR for combustion, d
to chemical exposures:
• Commercial buildings
• Buildings with indoor pools
• Furnaces installed in laundry
rooms
• Furnaces in hobby or craft rooms
• Furnaces installed near chemical
storage areas.
Exposure to the following substances
in the combustion air supply (but not
limited to the following) also
REQUIRE OUTDOOR AIR for combustion:
• Permanent wave solutions
• Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
• Chlorine-based swimming pool
chemicals
• Water softening chemica
• De-icing salts or chemicals
• Carbon Tetrachloride
• Halogen type refrigerants
• Cleaning solvents (such as per-
chloroethylene)
• Printing inks, paint removers,
varnishes, etc.
• Hydrochloric acid
• Cements and glues
• Anti-static fabric softeners for
clothes dryers
• Masonry acid washing materials
Combustion air must be free of acid
forming chemicals such as sulphur,
fluorine, and chlorine. These elements are found in aerosol sprays,
detergents, bleaches, cl
vents, air fresheners, paint and varnish removers, refrigerants and many
other commercial and household
products. Vapors from these products
when burned in a gas flame form acid
compounds. The acid compounds
increase the dew point temperature
of the flue products and produce
highly corrosive condensate.

lows:
• Slope horizontal vent piping
upward a minimum of 1/4" per
foot of run so that condensate
drains toward the furnace.
• Support horizontal vent piping at
least every four feet. No sags or
dips are permitted.
5. Insulate all vent runs through
unconditioned spaces where below-
freezing temperatures are expected,
with 1" thick medium density, foil
ced fiber glass or equivalent
fa
Rubatex/Armaflex insulation. For
horizontal runs where water may
collect and freeze, wrap the vent
pipe with self-regulating, 3 or 5 Watt
heat tape. The heat tape must be
U.L. listed and installed per the
manufacturer’s instructions.
6. All piping between the furnace and
the roof penetration is 2" or 3" as
specified in Table 6. Table 6 lists the
maximum allowable exhaust vent
pipe length for the number of
elbows used, based on the furnace
size.

WARNING
!
READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS SECTION. FAILURETO PROPERLY
VENT THIS FURNACE CAN
CAUSE CARBON MONOXIDE
POISONING OR AN EXPLOSION
OR FIRE, RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
Direct vent installations require a dedicated combustion air and venting system. All air for combustion is taken
from outside and all combustion products are discharged to the outdoors.
Therefore, no ventilation or combustion air openings are required.
INSTALLATION
GUIDELINES
All exhaust piping must be installed in
compliance with Part 7, “Venting of
Equipment,” of the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code NPFA 54, 90A
and 90B ANSI Z223.1-, local codes or
ordinances and these instructions.
1. IMPORTANT: Do not common
vent with any other appliance. Do
not install in the same chase or
chimney with a metal or high temperature plastic pipe from another
gas or fuel-burning appliance
unless the required minimum
clearances to
maintained between the approved
PVC pipe and other pipes.
2. Use only medium or long radius
sweep elbows.
NOTE: For all installations. Extend
the combustion air exhaust pipe a
minimum of 18" vertically above
the furnace cabinet before turning
the vent.
3. Vertical piping is preferred.
4. Install all horizontal piping as fol-
lows:
• Slope horizontal vent piping
upward a minimum of 1/4" per foot
of run so that condensate drains
toward the furnace.
• Support h
least every four feet. No sags or
dips are permitted.

TIONS
NOTE: All furnaces with horizontal air
intakes (except those using horizontal
concentric vent kit RXGY-E03A) must
have a drain tee assembly and trap
installed in the combustion air pipe as
close to the furnace as possible. This is
to drain any water that may enter the
combustion air pipe to prevent it from
entering the furnace vestibule area.
These parts are included in horizontal
vent kits RXGY-D02A, RXGY-D03A and
RXGY-D04A.
NOTE: The combustion air and exhaust
terminations must be at least 12 inches
above grade or anticipated snow levels.
Use alternate horizontal terminations
when termination locations are limited
and higher snow levels are anticipated.
NOTE: Ensure the location of the combustion air inlet with respect to the
exhaust vent terminal complies with
Figure 21, detail C.
Combustion Air Piping
: Use a 2" PVC
coupling with a wind deflector vane (provided) installed as follows:
1. Install a 2" coupling to the combustion air pipe at the outside wall to
prevent the termination from being
pushed inward.
2. Cut a 2 1/4" length of 2" PVC pipe
and connect this to the coupling.
3. Connect another 2" coupling to the
end of the 2 1/4" length of pipe.
Terminate this outer coupling 4
inches from the wall.
4. Attach the vane in the final 2" coupling in the vertical position with
PVC cement.
IMPORTANT: To insure proper furnace operation, install the vane in the
vertical position as shown in Figure
21, Detail B. Failure to install the vane
properly can result in nuisance tripping of the pressure switch.
Exhaust Vent Piping:
60,000 and 75,000 BTUH models:
Install a 2" to 1 1/2" reducer coupling at the outside wall to prevent
the termination from being pushed
inward. Reduce the 2" vent pipe
used to penetrate the wall to 1 1/2"
PVC for the last 12" of the run.
Terminate the 1 1/2" PVC exhaust
vent at least 12 inches from the outside wall.
90,000 through 120,000 BTUH

: Use a 2" PVC
elbow with a wind deflector vane (provided) installed as follows:
1. Install a 2" elbow to the combustion
air pipe at the outside wall to prevent
the termination from being pushed
inward.
2. Cut an adequate length of 2" PVC
pipe as needed to clear the anticipated snow level and connect this to
the elbow.
3. Connect another 2" elbow to the
end of the pipe such that the inlet is
facing away from the wall. This outer
coupling must terminate 4 inches
from the wall.
4. Attach
the vane in the final 2" elbow

NOTE: In Canada vent terminations
must be in accordance with the current
CSA-B149 Gas Installation Code and/or
local codes.
The vent must be installed with the following minimum clearances. See
Figures 23 and 24.
1. Locate the bottom of the vent terminal and the air inlet at least 12
inches above grade. Increase the
12-in. minimum to keep the terminal openings above the level of
snow accumulation, where applicable.
2. Do not terminate the vent over public walkways or over an area where
condensate or vapor could create a
nuisance or hazard.
3. Locate the vent terminal at least
one foot from any opening through
which flue gases could enter a
building.
4. Locate the vent terminal at least 3
feet above any forced air inlet
located within 10 feet, except the
combustion air inlet of a direct vent
appliance.
5. Allow the vent terminal minimum
horizontal clearance of 4 feet from
electric meters, gas meters, regulators and relief equipment.
6. Locate the furnace combustion air
inlet a sufficient distance from the
vent of any other gas or fuel burning appliance or electric clothes
dryer to prevent recirculation of the
flue gases into the furnace com-
bustion air inlet. The only exception
to this requirement is the case of
multiventing two or more furnaces,
which is covered in the section on
multiventing in these instructions.
In addition to the minimum clearances
listed above, the ven
be governed by the following guidelines.
1. Do not terminate under any kind of
patio or deck. If running the vent
under a deck, insulate it to insure
no condensate freezes and blocks
the pipe. The insulation must be
waterproof.
For vent considerations, the edge
of the deck must be considered
the outside wall.
2. Do not terminate behind any area
that may allow the flue products to
become stagnant and recirculate.
3. Do not locate on the side of a
building with pre
winds. This will help prevent mois-
ture from freezing on walls and
overhangs (under eaves).
4. Do not extend vent directly
through brick or masonry surfaces. Use a rust-resistant sheet
metal or plastic backing plate
behind vent. See Figure 15.
5. Do not locate too close to shrubs
as condensate may stunt or
kill them.

CONDENSATE DRAIN/OPTIONAL NEUTRALIZER
GENERAL INFORMATION
CAUTION
!
DO NOT RUN DRAIN OUTDOORS.
FREEZING OF CONDENSATE CAN
CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect into a com-
mon drain line with an air conditioner
evaporator coil drain located below the
furnace. A blocked or restricted drain line
can result in overflow of the coil pan and
negate the furnace blocked-drain shutoff
control.
➤ IMPORTANT: If installing the unit over
a finished ceiling or living area, be certain
to install an auxiliary condensate drain
pan under the entire unit extending out
under the condensate tee. With the mini-
1
mum 5
⁄2" riser for upflow models
or 13⁄4" for downflow models installed
above the tee, a blocked drain will result
in overflow from the riser. if the furnace is
installed in an attic, crawlspace or other
area where freezing temperatures may
occur, the furnace drain can freeze while
shut off for long periods of time.
If required by local codes, install a con-
densate neutralizer cartridge in the drain
line. Install cartridge in horizontal position
only.Also install an overflow line if routing
to a floor drain (see Figures 31 & 32). If
available, install a condensate pump that
is resistant to acidic water. Pumps are
available from your local distributor. If
pump used is not resistant to acidic water,
a condensate neutralizer must be used
ahead of the pump. The condensate
pump must have an auxiliary safety
switch to prevent operation of the furnace
and resulting overflow of condensate in
the event of pump failure. The safety
switch must be wired through the “R” circuit only (low voltage) to provide operation
in either heating or cooling modes.
When selecting neutralizer cartridges and
condensate pumps, use the following
data:

to the combination gas valve on the
furnace. Refer to Table 8 for the recom-
mended gas pipe size for natural gas
and Table 9 for L.P. See Figures 39, 40
& 41 for typical gas pipe connections.
Install a ground joint union between
the manual gas stop and the main
gas valve to easily remove the control valve assembly. Install a manual
gas stop in the gas line outside the
furnace cabinet. The gas stop should
be readily accessible to t
supply on or off. Install a drip leg in the
gas supply line as close to the furnace
as possible. Always use a pipe compound resistant to the action of liquefied
petroleum gases on all threaded connections.
IMPORTANT: When making gas pipe
connections, use a back-up wrench to
prevent any twisting of the control
assembly and gas valve.
Any strains on the gas valve can
change the position of the gas orifices in
the burners. This can cause erratic furnace operation.
IMP
ORTANT: Do not run a flexible gas
connector inside the unit. If local codes
allow the use of a flexible gas appliance
connector, always use a new listed connector. Do not use a connector which
has previously serviced another gas
appliance. Massachusetts law requires
that all flexible gas connectors be less
than 36”.
The gas pipe grommet in the cabinet
does not seal around a flexible gas con-
nector. It is important to have all
openings in the cabinet burner compartment seale
operation.
IMPORTANT: To insure a good seal, the
gas pipe that runs through the grommet
must be 1/2” schedule 40 black pipe.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the furnace
gas control valve is not subjected to
high gas line supply pressures (13.5”
w.c. or above).
DISCONNECT the furnace and its individual shut-off valve from the gas supply
piping during any pressure testing that
exceeds 1/2 PSIG (3.23 kPa or 13"
w.c.).
d for proper furnace
urn the gas
GAS PRESSURE
Natural gas supply pressure should
be 5" to 10.5" w.c. LP gas supply
pressure should be 11" to 13" w.c.
This pressure must be maintained
with all other gas-fired appliances in
operation.
WARNING
!
NEVER PURGE A GAS LINE INTO
THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER.
NEVER USE MATCHES, FLAME
OR ANY IGNITION SOURCE FOR
CHECKING LEAKAGE. FAILURE
TO ADHERE TO THISWARNING
CAN CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION RESULTING IN PROPERTY

To check for gas leakage, use an
approved chloride-free soap and water
solution, an electronic combustible gas
detector, or other approved method.
GAS VALVE
This furnace has a 24-volt operated
main solenoid valve. It has ports for
measuring supply pressure and manifold
pressure. A manual control is on the
valve body. It can be set to only the
“ON” or “OFF” positions.
IMPORTANT: Two different gas valves
are available with the modulating furnace. The type of valve used will affect
the wire diagram, wire assemblies, lighting instructions, LP conversion kit and
many other aspects of the furnace
design. To determine the type of valve
used on your furnace, consult the first
two digits of the serial number.

LP CONVERSION
IMPORTANT: LP gas from trucks used
to transport liquid-based fertilizers can
contain chemicals that will damage the
furnace. Verify that your gas supplier
does not use the same truck to transport materials other than LP.
This furnace is shipped from the facto-
ry for use on natural gas only. For use
on LP gas, a proper conversion is
required.
HG or HH Fuel Code
trolled modulating valve):
Conversion of the furnace for use on
LP gas requires conversion kit RXGJ-FP07. This kit includes an LP gas
valve.
HA or HB Fuel Code
controlled modulating valve):
Conversion of the furnace for use with
LP gas requires conversion kit RXGJ-FP27. (Gas valve not required.)

OF STEPPER-CONTROLLED
MODULATING GAS VALVE:
To
convert the stepper-controlled mod-
ulating gas valve, a jumper is
required to connect the two pins
inside the jumper well. It is possible
to install the jumper such that the
pins are not connected. This is
incorrect. The jumper must connect
the pins together inside the jumper
well. This can be confirmed by visual inspection and by verifying proper
manifold pressure at high fire
(100%) after the jumper
is installed.
Manifold pressure should always be
Page 43
checked when converting the furnace
for LP operation. Figures 46 and 47
below show the incorrect way and the
correct way to install the jumper. The
jumper well is located next to the
adjustment well (with “+” and “–” text
and two-headed arrow) and will be
covered by a sticker or label. To con-

supplier reduce the supply-line pressure at the regulator.
If supply-line pressure is below these
ranges, either remove any restrictions
in the gas supply piping or enlarge
the gas pipe. See Tables 8 and 9.
With LP gas, have the LP supplier
adjust the supply-line pressure at the
regulator.

The furnace must have a nominal 115
volt power supply for proper operation. If there is not a consistent power
supply, contact a licensed electrician
to correct the problem.
1. With the blower compartment door
off, manually hold the push button
door switch in.
2. Call for heat at the thermostat.
3. With the unit operating, use a voltmeter to measure the voltage from
an
y 120 VAC terminal to any neu-
tral connection.
4. The voltage should be a nominal
115 volts (acceptable 105120VAC).
This test should be made with the unit
in full operation.
Polarity Check
If line & neutral are reversed, a fault
code (26) will be displayed at the furnace seven segment display (SSD)
and at the communicating thermostat
active fault display screen (communicating systems only).
Proper line
ing, is a must for this furnace to operate. Use a volt meter to make this
check.
1. With the blower compartment door
off, manually hold the push button
door switch in.
2. Use a voltmeter to measure the
voltage from any 120 VAC terminal
to any bare metal ground on the
furnace.
3. The voltage should be a nominal

ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER
Line voltage power is supplied from the
screw terminal “EAC”, see Figure 53,
and a line voltage neutral screw terminal
on the control board. This will power the
electronic air cleaner whenever the
blower is operating and delivering the
recommended minimum CFM. The 60
and 75 KBTU models, which are capable of a maximum delivery of 1200 CFM,
will operate the electronic air cleaner at
500 CFM and above. The 90, 105 and
120 KBTU models, which are capable of
a maximum delivery of 2000 CFM, will
operate the electronic air cleaner at 800
CFM and above. These limits are set to
prevent excessive production of ozone
at the lower airflows of the modulating
furnace and are based on average
requirements of commercially available
electronic air cleaners.
Continuous fan speeds are selectable
and some lower fan speeds may not
deliver enough airflow to operate an
electronic air cleaner. The IFC determines the minimum airflow necessary to
operate an electronic air cleaner and will
not turn on the electronic air cleaner
unless the airflow is high enough for the
EAC.
HUMIDIFICATION AND DEHUMIDIFICATION
HUMIDIFIER – The humidifier contacts
(labeled “HUM OUT”) are “dry” contacts
on the I.F.C. This means that the terminals are connected directly to the contacts of a board-mounted relay. The
coil of the relay is controlled by the
microprocessor of the IFC. The coil is
engaged roughly any time the heat
speed blower is engaged and (1)
24VAC is present on the thermostat terminal of the IFC labeled “HUM STAT” or
(2) a communicating thermostat with
humidification and dehumidification
capability is installed with call for
humidification present.

airflow will be permanently reduced by
approximately 15% giving less than
optimal performance and possibly causing prob
lems. It is not recommended to
leave this switch in the “ON” position
without a humidistat installed.
Control of dehumidification in cooling
and/or humidification in heating can be
done with a variety of methods depending on whether there is a communicating thermostat or a humidistat available
and depending on the type of operation
desired.
With systems configured with communicating thermostats and co
ndensers,
dehumidification is controlled by the
condenser and is not affected by the
position of dipswitch SW2-1 or the voltage (or lack of voltage) at the thermostat terminal labeled “HUM STAT”.
To determine which wiring diagram and
method to use, select from the following
configurations:
A. HUMIDIFICATION CONTROL ONLY
WITH NO DEHUMIDIFICATION
(REQUIRES OPTIONAL HUMIDIFIER).
A1. WITH COMMUNICATING
THERMOSTAT
Humidifier control is included
with the (-)HC-TST412MDMS
(modulating, non-communicating) and (-)HC-TST550CMMS
(full-color communicating)
model thermostats. However, it
is not included with the (-)HCTST501CMMS model communicating thermostat. The latter
thermostat should not be used
if h
umidification control is
required. To wire the furnace
for humidification control using
the former thermostat, refer to
the wiring diagram in Figure
54(I). Be sure not
to install the
jumper between “R” and “HUM
STAT” on the furnace con-
trol. Installing this jumper
will operate the humidifier
any time there is a heat call.
Without the jumper, the
humidification call from the
thermostat must be active
and a heat call must be present with the blower running.
A2. WITH NON-COMMUNICAT-
ING THERMOSTAT
A2-1 CONTINOUS HUMID-
IFIER OPERATION
DURING HEATING.
For continuous humidifier o
peration during
heating, refer to
Figure 54 (I) and
make sure to install
the jumper between
the thermostat terminals labeled “R” and
“HUM STAT”. A separate humidistat is not
required for this configuration and the
humidifier will turn on
whenever there is a
call for heat and the
blower is running.
A2-2 CONTROLED
HUMIDIFIER OPERATION USING A
HUMIDISTAT
(REQUIRES OPTIONAL HUMIDISTAT).
Controlled humidificat
ion can be accomplished using a
humidistat as shown
in Figures 55 (II) or 56
(III). These figures
show installation of a
humidifier with exter-
nal and internal power
supplies respectively.
Dehumidification operation will be disabled if
the dipswitch SW2-1
is in the “OFF” position. If this switch is in
the “ON” position,
dehumidification control will be active.
B. DEHUMIDIFICATION CONTROL
WITH NO HUMIDIFIC
ATION
B1. For communicating ther-
mostats listed with this furnace, dehumidification is
controlled automatically
when selected at the thermostat and additional wiring
is not necessary. The actual
airflow demand (reduced for
dehumidification) is requested of the furnace by the
condenser.
48
Page 49
B2. WITH NON-COMMUNICATING
THERMOSTAT (REQUIRES
OPTIONAL HUMIDISTAT).
Control of dehumidification only
(no humidification) can be
accomplished by installing an
op
tional humidistat as shown in
Figure 57 (IV). The dipswitch
SW2-1 must be set to the “ON”
position. If this switch is not
turned “ON”, dehumidification
operation will not take place.
Further, if this switch is “ON”
and no humidistat is installed,
airflow in cooling will be perma-
nently reduced by approximate-
ly 15%.
C. HUMIDIFICATION AND DEHUMIFI-
CATION CONTROL
(REQUIRES OPTIONAL HUMIDIFIER).
C1. WITH COMM
THERMOSTAT
Humidifier control is included
with the (-)HC-TST412MDMS
(modulating, non-communicating) and (-)HC-TST550CMMS
(full-color communicating)
model thermostats. However, it
is not included with the (-)HCTST501CMMS model communicating thermostat. Do not
purchase the latter thermostat if
humidification control is
required. To wire the furnace
for humidification and dehumidification cont
thermostat, refer to the wiring
diagram in Figure 54 (I). Be
sure not
between “R” and “HUM STAT”
on the furnace control.
Installing this jumper will oper-
ate the humidifier any time
UNICATING
rol using the former
to install the jumper
there is a heat call and dehumidification will never take
place when in cooling. Without
the jumper, a humidification call
from the thermostat must be
active and a heat call must be
present with the blower running
for the “HUM OUT” relay contacts to close.
C2. WITH NON-COMMU
THERMOSTAT (REQUIRES
OPTIONAL HUMIDISTAT.)
For non-communicating thermostats, an optional humidistat
must be installed. Controlled
humidification and dehumidification can be accomplished
using a humidistat as shown in
Figures 55 (II) or 56 (III).
These figures show installation
of a humidifier with external and
internal power supplies respectively. Dehumidification operation will be disabled
switch SW2-1 is in the “OFF”
position. If this switch is in the
“ON” position, dehumidification
control will be active.

ZONING SYSTEMS
The manufacturer does not currently
provide or support zoning with modulating furnace. However, zoning systems
can be installed with the system as long
as the zoning equipment manufacturers
specifications and installation instructions are met and followed.
The preferred zoning method is to use
a “bypass” system which is properly
installed for maximum efficiency. In
these systems, excess
back through the system to be used
again – this is opposed to a “dump”
system in which excess air is routed to
a zone where it is expected that the
extra heat or cooling would be least
noticed.
If installed as a “bypass” system, the
installation must have an optional
freeze stat installed to prevent the coil
from icing with excess bypass cooling.
Also, if the zoning equipment manufac-
turer prov
ides a limit switch (usually
provided by the zoning manufacturer),
this limit must be installed in the system
to prevent the furnace from overheating.

STEPPER GAS VALVE
CONTROL (J16)
For furnaces equipped with a stepper
modulating gas valve, a five-pin connector is used to control and sense the
gas valve. The valve uses a PWM
(Pulse Width Modulated) signal to control the firing rate. The duty cycle
this signal is five percent less than the
expected firing rate. For example, if
the firing rate is 90%, the PWM to (and
from) the valve will be 85% duty cycle.
The connector also provides the
24VAC signal to energize the main
valve solenoid. Reference the wiring
diagram for the furnace printed in this
document or on the inside of the furnace blower door.

MEMORY CARD CONNEC-
TOR (J15)
This connector is used to insert a mem-
ory card.
MEMORY CARD
A memory card is defined as an electronic card that carries a copy of the
furnace shared data.
RULES FOR WRITING, DISTRIBUTION
AND ARBITRATION OF MULTIPLE
COPIES OF FURNACE SHARED DATA
FOR COMMUNICATING-CAPABLE
FURNACES
Furnace shared data
data specific to a given furnace that
is critical for proper furnace operation. More specifically, it is data
which defines the operation of the
furnace and is unique to a given furnace platform and model. The most
critical of these data are the coefficients that control the blower operation (i.e. define the blower speedtorque operation). Because of this,
each furnace control is pr
with furnace shared data for that
model furnace only. The furnace
shared data from any given furnace
can NOT be transferred to another
furnace for any reason. Doing so
can adversely affect operation of the
furnace. Further, if no furnace
shared data is present, the furnace
will not operate in any mode and a
fault will be displayed.
Valid Furnace Shared Data
as furnace shared data for the furnace series in question with the correct motor horsepower. However, it
is impossible for the furnace control
to determine if the furnace shared
data is matched to the furnace input
BTU’s if the motor horsepower is cor-
rect. This means, for example, fur-
nace shared data for a 120KBTU
upflow furnace could be installed and
recognized as valid furnace shared
da
ta in a 90KBTU downflow furnace.
VALID FURNACE SHARED DATA
simply means that there is no motor
horsepower conflict and that the furnace shared data is for the series of
furnace in question. VALID FURNACE SHARED DATA is data that
will be used by the furnace control
with no fault reported. VALID FURNACE SHARED DATA may not necessarily mean that the furnace
shared data is correct for the furnace
in ques
tion. The input BTU’s could
still be incorrect and this is why it is
important to never exchange memory
cards from one furnace to another.
Furnace shared data is programmed
into the furnace control microprocessor and attached memory card at the
factory. The attached memory card
cannot be programmed in the field
but furnace shared data inside the
furnace IFC microprocessor may be

DO NOT REPLACE THE FURNACE
CONTROL OR MEMORY CARD OF
THE FURNACE WITH A FURNACE
CONTROL OR MEMORY CARD OF
ANOTHER FURNACE OR ANOTHER COMPONENT (E.G.: A MEMORY CARD FROM A CONDENSER
OR AIR HANDLER). THE WRONG
FURNACE CONTROL OR MEMORY CARD MAY SPECIFY PARAMETERS WHICH WILL MAKE THE
FURNACE RUN AT UNDESIRED
CONDITIONS INCLUDING (BUT
NOT NECESSARILY LIMITED TO)
REDUCED AIRFLOW DURING

UNDESIRED OPERATION OF THE
MAIN LIMIT CONTROL. FURTHER, THE MEMORY CARD IS
SPECIFIC TO THE MODEL NUMBER AND BTU INPUT RATING
FOR A SPECIFIC FURNACE AND
THIS INFORMATION SHOULD
NOT BE TRANSPORTED FROM
ONE FURNACE (OR COMPONENT) TO ANOTHER.
The memory card is the default
memory location to be used first
when there is any conflict. If the
memory card has been replaced
with a card that has data for another
furnace, the furnace will assume the
identity of the “other” furnace. In all
cases, the memory card has the
final say about the data to use. It is
only when the memory card is not
present, is corrupt or specifies a
motor larger or smaller than what is
found in the furnace that the furnace
control will use the data stored in
the micro
most recent memory card with blow-
er size matching that found in the
furnace). The hierarchy of data to
be used in the event of a lost card
or conflict is listed in order of importance below.

only to be used to install a memory

on various components in a communicating network (the latter applies
only to installations configured as
communicating systems and NOT to
so-called legacy (24VAC) controlled
systems).
When the furnace control is
replaced, the original memory card
must be broken a
way from the origi-
nal furnace control (IFC) and
retained with the furnace. When
the new IFC is installed, the original memory card will be inserted
into connector J15 of the IFC to
impart the critical furnace shared
data to the replacement control.
Note that in this circumstance
there will be essentially two furnace shared data cards; one
attached to the furnace control
and one inserted into connector
J15. Howe

from ProStock will not contain any
furnace shared data on the memory card or in the microprocessor
and memory cards cannot be

a. Furnace shared data from the
“network” is used. Furnace
network shared data is defined
as a redundant copy (or
copies) of the critical furnace
shared data stored at various
places and components on the
communicating network.
The “network” can be defined
as follows:
I. The “network” can be the
furnace control itself if it
was programmed at the factory and the memory card
has been removed for some
reason.
II. The “network” can be a fur-
nace control which has had
a valid card previously
(either attached or inserted)
and removed for some reason.
III. The “network” can be a fur-
nace control attached to a
communicating condenser
and/or thermostat which
has copies of the furnace
shared data that can be
retrieved by the furnace
control.
IV. A furnace control sent as a
replacement part will have
no furnace shared data
either in the microprocessor
or on the memory card.
The replacement control
does not i
nclude a valid
memory card. The furnace
shared data can be added
by:
1. Inserting a valid memory
card (e.g. the original
memory card sent with
the original furnace con-

Regardless, the memory card
of a replacement control cannot be programmed or reprogrammed in the field with furnace shared data and will
always remain blank. In fact,
this card does not even contain the electronic components necessary to turn it into
a valid memory card.
V. Replacement memory cards
with the appropriate furnace
shared data fo
model can be ordered from
Pro-Stock. In the event that the
original memory card is lost, the
original furnace control has
been replaced and there is no
furnace shared data on the network (or the furnace is not part
of a communicating network
(i.e.: is not connected to a communicating condenser and thermostat)), the replacement
memory card must be ordered
and installed into the connector
at J1
5 to give the furnace valid
furnace shared data. The furnace will not operate properly
without the correct furnace
shared data. When no furnace
shared data is present (either at
the memory card or on the network) a “d1” (NO SHARED
DATA) fault code will be displayed at both the thermostat
active fault screen and at the
furnace control (I.F.C.) sevensegment displays. Also, the
homeowner will be alerte
the communicating thermostat
with either a CHECK SYSTEM
or CHECK FURNACE error
message displayed on the main

REPLACING THE FURNACE CONTROL
In the event that the furnace control
must be replaced, the memory card
must be broken away (detached)
from the original furnace control and
retained with the furnace. A plastic
tether with a note wrapped around
the tether is used to remind the
technician no
from the furnace. The card can be
broken away easily by putting pressure on the control board at dipswitch bank SW-3 with the left hand
and pulling forward on the upper
right-hand corner of the card with
the furnace control still in place on
the control board mounting plate
(see Figure 64). The card will break
free from the furnace control. Use
this card to insert into the memory
card connector labeled J15 of the
replacement control board. Failure
to save and connect the memory
card properly to the replacement
control may result in no operation or
undesired operation of the furnace.
When replacing the furnace control,
be sure to match the dipswitch settings of the original control on the
replacement.
DO NOT CUT THE PLASTIC WIRE
TIE USED AS A TETHER TO THE
ATTACHED, BREAK-AWAY MEMORY CARD. DOING SO WILL
DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF
RETAINING THE MEMORY CARD
– WHICH COULD LEAD TO A
LOSS OF CRITICAL DATA NECESSARY TO OPERATE THE FUR
NACE. THE CARD MUST STAY
WITH THE FURNACE – EVEN
WHEN THE FURNACE CONTROL
(IFC) MUST BE REPLACED.
NEVER USE A CONTROL BOARD
TAKEN FROM ANOTHER FURNACE AS A REPLACEMENT CON
TROL FOR THIS FURNACE.
FURNACE CONTROLS TAKEN
FROM OTHER FURNACES MAY
CONTAMINATE THE NETWORK
WITH THE WRONG SHARED DATA
WHICH CAN ONLY BE FIXED BY
REPLACING THE MEMORY CARD
WITH THE ORIGINAL MEMORY
CARD FROM YOUR FURNACE OR

document), the target cooling airflow
will be determined by the adjustments
of SW1-1 and SW1-2. Furnaces with
½ HP motors will have a maximum tar-
get airflow setting of 1200 CFM.
Furnace with 1
HP motors will have a
maximum target airflow setting of 2000
CFM. The airflow achieved may be
less than the target if the static pressure across the furnace is over 0.6” wc.
Consult the cooling equipment instructions and documents for target airflow
and adjust accordingly.
Cooling airflow for non-communicat-

approximately +/- 10% by using the
cool trim adjustment dipswitches;
SW1-5 and SW1-6. See Figure 66.
Cooling airflow for non-communicat-

(CONSULT THE SECTION
OF THIS DOCUMENT
TITLED NON-COMMUNICATING THERMOSTATS
FOR WIRING DIAGRAMS)
The modulating furnace is capable of
operating with a single-stage or a two-
stage thermostat as well as the modu-
lating thermostat or fully communicating
thermostat specified for use with the
furnace. Fully communica
stat functions and operations are
explained in detail in the sections of
this manual titled COMMUNICATING
SYSTEMS and THERMOSTATS (under
the sub-section titled COMMUNICAT-
ING THERMOSTATS).
Based on the dipswitch settings of
SW2-2 and SW2-3, the furnace will
operate with either single-stage or two-
stage thermostats as a modulating sys-
tem using an algorithm that utilizes
three distinct firing ra
and 100% of the furnace heating
capacity (See below for operation of
each). See Figure 68 to determine
which dipswitch settings are necessary
for operation with a modulating, single-
stage or two-stage thermostat.

THERMOSTATS) for information on
how to wire the thermostats for each of

DIPSWITCH BANK SW3 HEAT AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: TO CLEAR FAULT CODES IN THE FURNACE CONTROL, TURN SWITCH # SW3-3 ON, OFF, ON, OFF OR OFF, ON, OFF, ON WITHIN 30 SECONDS. THE RIGHT-MOST SEVEN-SEGMENT DISPLAY WILL FLASH THE UPPER
AND LOWER HORIZONTAL MEMBERS ONCE AS CONFIRMATION THAT THE FAULTS HAVE BEEN CLEARED. BE SURE TO RETURN THE DIPSWITCH (SW3-3) TO ITS ORIGINAL POSITION AFTER CLEARING THE FAULTS.
Placing SW2-4 in the “ON” position will
establish the low (Y1) cooling airflow at
½ of the max cool (Y2) airflow. This set-
ting will be useful with cooling systems
where two compressors are used to
control two cooling stag
es (one compressor for first stage and two compressors for second stage).
SW3
Dipswitch bank SW3 is used to fine-tune
the airflow in the heating mode. The
switches of bank SW3 can be set to
adjust either the minimum heat rate airflow or the maximum heat rate airflow or
both. Also, every firing rate in between
these points will be adjusted according-
ly.
SW3 will allow for airflow adjustments at
high altitude, improper temperature
probe locations, or no temperature
probe applications. If the temperature
rise range needs adjustment, the techni-
cian must use separate temperature
probes to determine the rise range and
adjust the airflow using SW3’s dip
switches until the rise range is as close
as possible to the target temperature
rise (65°F or 55°F – adjusted at dip-
switch SW1-3).
Three examples of airflow adjustment
are shown below.
NOTE: All dip switches on SW3 will be
shipped in the “OFF” position.
xample 1
E
PROBLEM: Temperature rise is too
high at 40% firing rate although it is
within the published range at 100% firing rate.
SOLUTION: More airflow is needed to
lower the temperature rise at 40%.
1) Set dip switches 4 and 5 of SW3 to
the “ON” position. This will produce a
7.5% increase in blower output.
2) Allow furnace to run for several minutes at 40% firing rate until temperature
probes reach equilibrium.
) If the temperature rise is still above
3
the published range, set switch 6 of
SW3 to the “ON” position. This will
increase the airflow rate from +7.5% to
+15% above the standard value.

PROBLEM: Temperature rise is too low
at 100% firing rate although it is within
the published range at 40% firing rate.
SOLUTION: Less airflow is needed to
increase temperature rise at 100%.
1) Set dip switch 1 of SW3 to the “ON”
position, which overrides standard airflow.
2) Leave switches 2 and 3 in the “OFF”
position to decrease airflow by 7.5%.
3) Allow furnace to run for several minutes at 100% rate
until temperature
probes reach equilibrium. 4) If the temperature rise is still below the published
range, set switch 3 to the “ON” position.
This will decrease the airflow rate from
7.5% to -15% below the standard value.
EXAMPLE 3
PROBLEM: Temperature rise is too low
at 40% firing rate and is too high at
100%.
SOLUTION: Less airflow is needed to
increase temperature rise at 40% firing
rate and more is needed to decrease
temperature rise at 100%.
1) Set dip switch 4 of SW3 to the “ON”
position to override standard airflow at
40% firing rate. Leave switches 5 and 6
in “OFF” position to decrease airflow by
7.5%.
2) Allow furnace to run for several minutes at 40% rate until temperature
probes reach equilibrium.
3) If temperature rise is still lower than
the published range, set switch 6 to the
“ON” position to decrease the airflow
rate from -7.5% to -15% below the
standard value.
4) Set dip switches 1 to the “ON”
position to override standard airflow
at 100% firing rate. Set switch 2 to
the “ON” position to increase airflow
by 7.5%.
5) Allow furnace to run for several
minutes at 100% rate until temperature probes reach equilibrium.
6) If temperature rise is still higher
than the published range, set switch
3 to “ON” position to increase the
airflow rate from 7.5% to 15% above
the standard value.

DUAL SEVEN-SEGMENT
DIAGNOSTIC DISPLAY
The dual seven-segment diagnostic dis-
play will either display the status of the
system (e.g. “H” for Heat) or a diagnos-
tic error code in the event of an active
fault. Fault and status codes and their
meanings can be determined from Table
16. For detailed information for each
fault code refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of this manual.
For communicating systems

the thermostat “Active Fault” display
area. (See the section of this document
titled “ACTIVE FAULT DISPLAY” under

The rightmost decimal on the display
will blink one time for every 100 CFM of
expected airflow whenever the blower

less than 50 CFM above any increment
of 100, the value will be rounded to the
lesser 100 value and the lesser value
will be displayed. For example, if the
actual CFM is

is 1051, the decimal will blink eleven
times. For better resolution, a service
tool or communicating thermostat is
required and the expected CFM can be

FAULT CODE BUFFER
Upon power reset, the last five fault
codes from the furnace will be displayed on the seven-segment display.
These will be displayed in chronological
order from newest (displayed first) to
oldest (displayed last).
For communicating systems, the fault
code buffer can also be read at the
communicating thermostat inside the
furnace User Menus. The most recent
six fault codes are stored. Also dis-
played is the number of days since
eac
h fault code was recorded.
NOTE: The following fault codes will
not be stored back-to-back in the
fault buffer. These will only be stored
in the buffer if the previous fault
stored was a different fault. 82, 11,
45, 46 & 57.
CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC
FAULT CODES FROM
THE BUFFER
To clear the fault codes in the fault
buffer, the dipswitch at position
SW3-3 can be used. Turn the switch
off, on, off, on or
quickly within 30 seconds to reset
the fault codes. When this is done,
the right-most seven-segment dis-
play will energize the upper and
lower horizontal segments for four
seconds as confirmation that the
fault codes have been cleared from
the buffer. Be sure to return the
switch to the original position after
clearing the faults.
Faults can also be cleared at the
furnace User menu under the

COMMUNICATING SYSTEMS
The modulating furnace is capable
of communicating with a thermostat
and condenser to improve cooling
and heat-pump airflow, displaying
active faults and active furnace
information at the thermostat and
improved diagnostics and troubleshooting.
WIRING A FURNACE FOR COMMUNICATIONS.
Maximum wire lengths and notes
about wiring communicating systems are noted below.
MAXIMUM COMMUNICATING
WIRE LENGTHS (1, 2, R & C)
Max Wire Length – Thermostat to
Furnace = 100 FT @ 18 AWG*
Max Wire Length – Furnace to
Condenser = 125 FT @ 18 AWG*
Notes:
1. When using twisted pairs, be
sure the wires connected to pins
labeled “1” (recommended wire
color = green) and “2” (recommended wire color = yellow) are
a twisted pair.
2. Wires may be solid or stranded..
3. *Wire gage smaller than 18 AWG
is not approved or recomm
for this application.
4. When using existing wire from a
previous installation, be sure to
trim the tip of the wire back past
the insulation and strip a small
amount of insulation from the
wire to expose clean new copper
for the communicating connections. Fresh copper must be
exposed when making the com-
municating connections or communications may not be properly
established.
Figure 74 is the wiring diagram for
connecting the furnace to an
approved ClimateTalk communicating thermostat and approved Rheem
or Ruud communicating condenser.
The only approved configuration is
to install dedicated wires directly
from the furnace to the thermostat
and a separate set of dedicated
wires directly from the furnace to the
condenser. Note: The only
approved configuration requires that
four dedicated wires (1, 2, R
be installed from the furnace to the
condenser.

STARTUP FOR SYSTEMS CONFIGURED WITH COMMUNICATIONS
WARNING
!
INSTALLATION OF LINE VOLTAGE
AND GAS MUST BE PERFORMED
ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS
WRITTEN IN THIS MANUAL. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT
IN INJURY OR DEATH.
When the furnace is configured for
communications, the components on
the network (i.e. furnace, thermostat
and condenser) must establish communications before engaging a heat
(or other) thermostat demand. The
procedure for establishing communications is automatic and is
described below. Once communications is established, the start-up procedure will be the same as the general start-up instructions described
in the section of this manual titled
START-UP PROCEDURES
.
Once the communicating wiring is
properly installed and the furnace is
connected to line voltage, the system can be turned on. The thermo-
stat will display the following text:
“SEARCHING”
is displayed several times for sever-
al seconds. Next, the text
“FURNACE FOUND”
and
“AIR CONDITIONER FOUND”
or
“HEAT PUMP FOUND”
(depending on which is installed in
the system) will be displayed. The
process can take
several minutes
(up to a maximum of 30) to com-
plete. If these messages are not
displayed within 30 minutes after
energizing the system, communica-
tions can not be established. There
are many reasons why communications may not be established –
including improper settings of the
“TERM” and “BIAS” switches (see
BIAS / TERMINATION) and improper wiring (see WIRING A FURNACEFOR COMMUNICATIONS above).
The o
rder in which these messages
will be displayed will depend on
which components are energized
first. The order listed here assumes
that the furnace and condenser are
energized at the same time. If not,
the order of display will be in the
order that the components are
turned on.
74
Page 75
When the system has found all neces-
sary components, the text area of the
communicating thermostat will go
blank.
This is an indicator that the system is
operating properly. Proceed by engaging a typical thermostat call to determine
if operation is correct as described in
the section of this book titled START UP
PROCEDURES” to test heating, cooling
and fan operation and to make neces-
sary adjustments.
NOTE: When a communicating condenser is installed with the system, a
capital “C” will be displayed at the fu
rnace seven-segment display for both
low & high cooling stages.
CONTINUOUS FAN OPERATION IN
OMMUNICATING MODE
C
Continuous fan operation will always
depend on the selection (Hi, Med, Low)
made at the communicating thermostat
for the continuous fan speed (see installation instructions for the thermostat).
However, during the first few operations
of continuous fan, the blower speed will
be limited to a maximum of 600 CFM for
1
⁄2 HP motors (60KBTU and 75KBTU)
and 1000 CFM for 1 HP motors
(90KBTU, 105KBTU and 120KBTU).
This will continue until the high cooling
call information is provided from the
condenser. Once the max cooling CFM
value has been transmitted by the condenser (condenser must reach high
stage – in heat pump or cooling), the
continuous fan will then have a maximum CFM value equal to the max cool-
ing airflow from the condenser. The Hi,
Med and Low selections for continuous
fan will be based on max CFM of
the
condenser with Hi continuous fan speed
equal to the high speed CFM of the
cooling/HP condenser.
NOTE: When faults are cleared in the
furnace “SETUP” user menu, the continuous fan CFM will be restored to factory
default (Max = 600 CFM for 1/2 HP and
1200 CFM for 1 HP). These values will
again be used to calculate continuous
fan airflow until a cooling call has been
established and a communicating conden
ser sends a fan demand to the fur-
nace control.
ACTIVE FAULT CODES WITH COMMUNICATING SYSTEMS
Two levels of fault codes exist: (1) Non-
critical and (2) Critical. In general a
non-critical fault permits all (or nearly
all) operations to proceed and a critical
fault prevents all (or nearly all) opera-
tions from proceeding. Detailed expla-
nations are given for each fault code
and how to diagnose and troubleshoot
problems by fault code displayed in the
“TROUBLSHOOTING” section of this
manual.
Active faults of either level will be displayed at the thermostat in the
“ACTIVE FAULT” area of the thermostat. To enter the furnace “ACTIVE
FAULT” area using a communicating
thermostat, see the installation and
operation instructions for that thermostat.

Systems configured for communications will have some advantages
over traditional control (24VAC thermostats) systems. One advantage is
that a variety of information that can
be useful for config
uring the furnace/
system and diagnostic/troubleshoot ing information can be displayed at
the thermostat.
The bulk of this information can be
found inside the user menus. The
procedure for entering (and exiting)
the user menus will vary depending
on the thermostat or service tool that
is used. To enter, navigate or exit
the furnace “USER MENU”s using a
communicating thermostat, see the
installation and opera
tion instruc-
tions for that thermostat.
Navigating the user menus is
straight-forward. The menu follows
the logic tree shown in Figure 75 (a

NOTE: There may be a delay of
several seconds when accessing he
user menus or sub-menus. This is
normal.

“
” menu – This menu
gives information about the six most
recent faults experienced by the fur-
nace. The most recent fault is displayed upon entering the menu. Three
seconds later the text “DAYS“ is dis-
played followed by a number. The number indicates the number of days since
that fault was experienced.
The faults can be viewed in order of
occurrence. Pressing the down arrow
key once will permit vie
wing of the next
most recent fault. Pressing the key
again will display the second most
recent fault and so on.
If no fault present in the memory, the
text “NO FAULT” and “DAYS 0” will be
displayed. It is possible that there will
be less than six faults stored (if less
than six faults have occurred since
installation or clearing of faults). In this
case, the existing faults will be dis-
played in the ord
er of occurrence and
the remaining faults will be displayed as
“NO FAULT” and “DAYS 0”.
The final item in this menu is “CLEAR
FAULTS”. The options are “yES” and
“no”. This item permits the faults to be
cleared so all six positions will display
“NO FAULT” and “DAYS 0”.
When faults are cleared, the right
seven segment display on the furnace
control will flash the upper and lower
horizontal bars once.
Note that the “FAULT HISTORY” only
accumulates days when power is
applied to the furnace control board.
For example, if a fault actually occurred
ten days ago and the furnace was not
powered for two of the ten days, the
fault will be displayed with the text
“DAYS 8” instead o
f “DAYS 10” is displayed to indicate the number of days

All other codes apply.
The balance point can be adjusted
at the thermostat for optimal operation. The balance point is the point
below which gas heat will be used
and above which heat-pump heat
will be used.
For dual-fuel systems, to protect
equipment, the supply air sensor
must be installed. When
the supply
air sensor is properly installed and
the system is in defrost mode, the
gas heat will only operate when the
outlet air is below 110°F. When the
outlet air exceeds 110°F, the gas
valve is turned off and the Air

to run. When the supply air temperature reaches 95°F, the gas heat will
again be turned on. This cycle will
continue until the call for defrost has
ended.

START-UP PROCEDURES
IGNITOR PLACEMENT,
ALIGNMENT & LOCATION
Ignition failure may be a result of
improper ignitor alignment caused during a service call or other work done to
the furnace in the field. When performing any work on the burner, heat
exchanger, etc., the technician must
check alignment of the spark ignitor.
Misalignment of the ignitor could cause
a failure to light or rough ignition. The
correct ignitor alignment is shown in
Figure 76.
TO START THE FURNACE
DIRECT SPARK IGNITION LIGHTING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a directspark ignition device. This device lights
the main burners each time the room
thermostat calls for heat. See the lighting
instructions on the furnace.
During initial start-up, it is not unusual for
odor or smoke to come out of any room
registers. To ensure prope
is recommended to open windows and
doors, before initial firing.
The furnace has a negative pressure
switch that is a safety during a call for
heat. The induced draft blower must pull
a negative pressure on the heat
exchanger to close the negative pressure
switch. The induced draft blower must
maintain at least the negative pressure
switch set point for the furnace to operate. If the induced draft blower fails to
close or maintain the closing of the nega-
tive pressure switch, a “no heat call”
would result.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Heating Cycle Initiation
The heating cycle is always initiated by
a 24 volt signal on W of the thermostat
or, for communicating systems, a message is transmitted from the thermostat
to the IFC. When the controller senses
24 volts on W or the communicated
message for heat call, the following
sequence occurs:
• High and low pressure switches are
checked to insure contacts are open.
• Inducer is powered on high speed for
a thirty (30) second prepurge.
• Pressure switches are monitored as
the inducer creates the vacuum to
close the contacts.
• The modulating gas valve is set to the
highest possible rate (no flow yet).
• The controller sends a spark signal to
spark across the electrodes.
• The main solenoids on the gas valve
are energized allowing gas to flow to
the burners.
• When flame is proven, the ignition
control is de-energized - 8 second
maximum trial time.
• The gas valve maintains 100% rate
through the warm-up period - 20 seconds (aka Blower Off Delay).
Heating Cycle Response
MODULATING FUNCTION:
(“W” and “V” signal inputs, refer to dip
switch set SW2 on IFC)
After the warm-up period, the furnace
will respond to the thermostat demand
by adjusting the gas valve pressure
and blower speed anywhere between
40% to 100% heating capacity.

After the warm-up period, the furnace
will respond to the thermostat demand
by adjusting the gas valve pressure and
blower heating speeds to the “W” signal
values. “W” only = 40% gas valve pressure and blower heating speed. “W2” =
65% gas valve pressure and blower
heating speed for first five minutes and
100% thereafter. Also, if the call for heat
ends, the furnace terminates at the present rate.
➤ SINGLE-STAGE FUNCTION – NON-
COMMUNICATING SYSTEMS ONLY:
(SW2-2 and SW2-3 must both be turned
“off” for this operation.)
(“W” signal only)
After the warm-up period, the furnace
will respond to the thermostat demand
by altering the gas valve pressure and
blower speed as follows:
Phase 1: 0 to 5 minutes = 40% of furnace
capacity (gas valve output and blower
spee
d)
Phase 2: 5 to 12 minutes = 65% of fur-
nace capacity (gas valve output and
blower speed)
Phase 3: After 12 minutes = 100% of fur-
nace capacity (gas valve output and
blower speed)
NOTE: If the call for heat ends during any
phase, the furnace will terminate immediately at the firing rate of that phase.

SETTING INPUT RATE
Checking furnace input is important
to prevent over firing beyond its
design-rated input. NEVER SET
INPUT ABOVE THAT SHOWN ON
THE RATING PLATE. Use the following table or formula to determine
input rate. Prior to checking the furnace input, make certain that all
other gas appliances are shut off,
with the exception of pilot burners.
Time the meter with only the furnace
in operation. Start the furnace, in
Furnace Test Mode, 100% rate, and
measure the time required to burn
one cubic foot of gas.
The furnace is shipped from the fac-
tory with #50 orifices. They are sized
for natural gas having a heating
value of 1075 BTU/cu. ft. and a specific gravity of .60. For high-altitude
models (option 278) the furnace
comes equipped with #51 orifices
installed for elevations 5,000 to
5,999 ft. These orifices may still need
to be changed based on both elevation and gas heating value. Consult
the section of this book titled “High
Altitude Installation” for details.
Since heating values vary geographically, the manifold pressure and/or
gas orifice size may need to be
changed to adjust the furnace to its
nameplate input. The rate will also
vary with altitude. Consult the local
Heating Cycle Termination
(“W” signal only, refer to dip switch set

FILTER MAINTENANCE
Instruct the user or homeowner on
how to access the filters for regular
maintenance.
Filter application and maintenance
are critical to airflow, which may
affect the heating and cooling system
performance. Reduced airflow can
shorten the life of the system’s major
components, such as motor, limits,
heat exchanger, evaporator coil or
compressor. Consequently, it is recommended that the return air duct
system have only one filter location.
The most common location will be
inside the furnace or a filter base.
Systems with a return-air filter grille
or multiple filter grilles, can have a filter installed at each of the return-air
openings. Installers are instructed to
show the homeowner or end user
where the filter has been installed.
If high efficiency filters or electronic
air cleaners are used in the system, it
is important that the airflow is not
reduced in order to maximize system
performance and life. Always verify
that the system’s airflow is not
impaired by the filtering system that
has been installed. This can be done
by performing a temperature rise and
temperature drop test.
Instruct the homeowner or end-user
to keep the filter(s) clean at all times.
Instruct them to vacuum dirt from the
filter, wash with detergent and water,
air dry thoroughly and reinstall.

CAUTION
DO NOT OPERATE THE SYSTEM
WITHOUT FILTERS. A PORTION
OF THE DUST ENTRAINED IN THE
AIR MAY TEMPORARILY LODGE
IN THE AIR DUCT RUNS AND AT
THE SUPPLY REGISTERS. ANY
RECIRCULATED DUST PARTICLES WILL BE HEATED AND
CHARRED BY CONTACT WITH
THE FURNACE HEAT EXCHANGER. THIS RESIDUE WILL SOIL
CEILINGS, WALLS, DRAPES,
CARPETS AND OTHER HOUSEHOLD ARTICLES.
LUBRICATION
IMPORTANT: Do Not attempt to lubri-
cate the bearings on the blower motor or
the induced draft blower motor. Addition
of lubricants can reduce the motor life
and void the warranty.
The blower motor and induced d
blower motor bearings are prelubricated
by the manufacturer and do not require
further attention.
The blower motor and induced draft
blower motor must be cleaned periodically by a qualified installer, service
agency, or the gas supplier to prevent
the possibility of overheating due to an
accumulation of dust and dirt on the
windings or on the motor exterior. The
air filters should be kept clean. As di
filters can restrict airflow. The motor
depends upon sufficient airflowing
across and through it to keep from overheating.

SYSTEM OPERATION
INFORMATION
Advise The Customer
IMPORTANT: Replace all blower doors
and compartment covers after servicing
the furnace. Do not operate the unit
without all panels and doors securely in
place.
1. Keep the air filters clean. The heating system will operate more effici
ently and more economically.
2. Arrange the furniture and drapes so
that the supply air registers and the
return air grilles are unobstructed.
3. Close doors and windows. This will
reduce the heating load on the system.
4. Avoid excessive use of kitchen
exhaust fans.
5. Do not permit the heat generated
by television, lamps or radios to
influence the thermostat operation.
6. Explain proper operation of the
system with constant air circulation.
ANNUAL INSPECTION
The furnace should operate for many
years without excessive scale build-up
in the flue passageways. However, it is
recommended that a qualified installer,
service agency, or the gas supplier
annually inspect the flue passageways,
the vent system and the main burners
for continued safe operation. Pay particular attention to deterioration from corrosion or o
During the annual inspection, all electrical power to the furnace should be
turned off and then restored. This will
put the furnace into a calibration cycle
on the initial call for heat. This is a five
minute (or until the heat call is satisfied)
cycle which allows the furnace to evaluate conditions It should be noted, that a
calibration cycle will occur on the initial
call for heat each t
has been interrupted to the unit.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that at
the beginning and at approximately half
way through the heating season, a visual inspection be made of the main burner flames for the desired flame appearance by a qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier. If the flames
are distorted and/or there is evidence of
back pressure, check the vent and
air system for blockage. If there is car-
bon and scale in the heat exchanger
tubes, the heat exchanger assembly
should be replaced.

WARNING
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
at the beginning of the heating season, the flame sensor be cleaned with
steel wool by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
at the beginning of the heating season, the condensate trap be inspected for debris or blockage. A blocked
condensate trap can cause water to
back up into the primary heat
exchanger and lea
ping of the over temperature switches
and/or pressure switches.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
at the beginning of the heating sea-
son, the condensate neutralizer (if
used) be replaced by a qualified
installer, service agency or the gas
supplier.
IMPORTANT: Drain traps will often
dry out over a summer. During annual
inspection the service person must
verify that the trap still has wate
there is not enough water (or no
water) in the trap, the service person
must fill it to the appropriate level.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
an annual inspection and cleaning of
all furnace markings be made to
assure legibility. Attach a replacement
marking, which can be obtained
through the distributor, if any are
found to be illegible or missing.

CODE
NO SHARED DATA
DESCRIPTION: This code is displayed anytime there is no shared data at the furnace or (for communicating systems
only) on the network (e.g. at the condenser or thermostat). The shared data is electronically stored data that is used to
define (among other things) blower operation. Without the shared data, the furnace can not function. Note that shared
data may be available even if there is no card attached to the furnace control. A missing memory card will display fault
code "d4" if shared data is available on the network.
STATUS
: This is a critical fault. The air conditioner (or heat pump) condenser will not operate in communicating
mode.
SOLUTION
SOLUTION: Replace the missing memory card into the connector labeled J15 on the furnace control (I.F.C.). If the
original card can not be found, a replacement card can be ordered from ProStock. Be sure to order the correct
memory card for the furnace. Note: Furnace power must be cycled off and then on again after replacing the card or
the shared data will not be read.

CAUSE
: Typically, the memory card will be missing from the furnace. In most cases, the cause of this fault will be the
loss or disconnection of the original memory card from the furnace control (or I.F.C.). When the furnace control (or
I.F.C.) is replaced, the memory card must be broken away, saved and installed in the replacement control. This is
explained in detail in the section of this book titled REPLACING THE FURNACE CONTROL.
STATUS
: This is a critical fault. The furnace will not operate in any mode.
AIRFLOW MISMATCH
EXPECTED OPERATION: No operation (including thermostat) will be permitted without the shared data. The shared
data defines the IBM (Indoor Blower Motor) speed-torque curve. Without this information, the IBM can not operate.
Refer to the section of this manual titled "INTEGRATED FURNACE CONTROL" under the subsection titled "MEMORY
CARD" for details on the hierarchy of use of multiple copies of shared data and distribution (among other details) of
shared data.
EXPECTED OPERATION
: No cooling or heat-pump heating operation can take place. However, all other modes of
operation (including gas heat) should proceed as normal. Refer to the section of this manual titled "INTEGRATED
