equalize compressor oil levels. If a second compressor is unavailable<br />
for oil return, the circuit will be shut down, <strong>and</strong> an<br />
alert will be generated. The alert will automatically clear, <strong>and</strong><br />
the circuit will restart when a second compressor becomes<br />
available.<br />
T051 (Circuit A, Compressor 1 Failure)<br />
T052 (Circuit A, Compressor 2 Failure)<br />
T053 (Circuit A, Compressor 3 Failure)<br />
T054 (Circuit B, Compressor 1 Failure)<br />
T055 (Circuit B, Compressor 2 Failure)<br />
T056 (Circuit B, Compressor 3 Failure) — If the current<br />
sensor board reads OFF while the compressor relay has been<br />
comm<strong>and</strong>ed ON for a period of 4 continuous seconds, an alert<br />
is generated.<br />
Any time this alert occurs, a strike will be logged on the affected<br />
compressor. If three successive strikes occur the compressor<br />
will be locked out requiring a manual reset or power reset<br />
of the unit.<br />
The clearing of strikes during compressor operation is a<br />
combination of 3 complete cycles or 15 continuous minutes of<br />
run time operation. So, if there are one or two strikes on the<br />
compressor <strong>and</strong> three short cycles (ON-OFF, ON-OFF, ON-<br />
OFF) occur in less than 15 minutes, the strikes will be reset to<br />
zero for the affected compressor. Also, if the compressor turns<br />
on <strong>and</strong> runs for 15 minutes straight with no compressor failure,<br />
the compressor's strikes are cleared as well.<br />
NOTE: Until the compressor is locked out, for the first two<br />
strikes, the alert will not be broadcast to the network, nor will<br />
the alarm relay be closed.<br />
The possible causes are:<br />
• High pressure switch open. The high pressure switch for<br />
each circuit is wired in series with the compressor contactor<br />
coils of each compressor on the circuit to disable<br />
compressor operation immediately upon a high discharge<br />
pressure condition. If the high pressure switch opens<br />
while the MBB or CXB is comm<strong>and</strong>ing the compressor<br />
ON, the compressor stops <strong>and</strong> the CSB no longer detects<br />
current, causing the control to activate the alert.<br />
• Compressor circuit breaker tripped.<br />
• Failed CSB or wiring error.<br />
To check out alerts T051, T052, T053, T054, T055, T056:<br />
1. Turn on faulty compressor using <strong>Service</strong> Test mode. If<br />
the compressor does not start, then most likely the problem<br />
is one of the following: HPS is open, compressor circuit<br />
breaker is tripped, incorrect control wiring, or incorrect<br />
compressor wiring.<br />
2. If the compressor starts, verify that the indoor <strong>and</strong> outdoor<br />
fans are operating properly.<br />
3. If the CSB is always detecting current, then verify that the<br />
compressor is on. If the compressor is ON, check the contactor<br />
<strong>and</strong> the relay on the MBB or CXB. If the compressor<br />
is OFF <strong>and</strong> there is no current, verify the CSB wiring<br />
<strong>and</strong> replace if necessary.<br />
4. Return to Normal mode <strong>and</strong> observe compressor operation<br />
to verify that compressor current sensor is working<br />
<strong>and</strong> condenser fans are energized.<br />
A051 (Circuit A, Compressor 1 Stuck On Failure)<br />
A052 (Circuit A, Compressor 2 Stuck On Failure)<br />
A053 (Circuit A, Compressor 3 Stuck On Failure)<br />
A054 (Circuit B, Compressor 1 Stuck On Failure)<br />
A055 (Circuit B, Compressor 2 Stuck On Failure)<br />
A056 (Circuit B, Compressor 3 Stuck On Failure) — If the<br />
current sensor board reads ON while the compressor relay has<br />
been comm<strong>and</strong>ed OFF for a period of 4 continuous seconds, an<br />
alarm is generated <strong>and</strong> the HVAC Mode will display<br />
107<br />
Compressor Stuck On. These alarms are only monitored for a<br />
period of 10 seconds after the compressor relay has been comm<strong>and</strong>ed<br />
OFF. This is done to facilitate a service technician<br />
forcing a relay to test a compressor.<br />
When the HVAC Mode indicates a compressor stuck on<br />
condition, the following will occur:<br />
1. The outdoor fans will continue to control head pressure.<br />
2. The supply fan will remain on.<br />
3. Heating will be disabled.<br />
A manual reset or power reset of the unit is required for<br />
these alarms.<br />
The possible causes are:<br />
• Compressor contactor has failed closed.<br />
• Relay output on MBB or CXB that drives compressor<br />
contactor has failed closed.<br />
• Failed CSB or wiring error.<br />
To check out alerts A051, A052, A053, A054, A055, A056:<br />
1. Place the unit in <strong>Service</strong> Test mode. All compressors<br />
should be OFF.<br />
2. Check for welded compressor contactor.<br />
3. Verify there is not 24 vac across the contactor coil of the<br />
compressor in question. If 24 vac is measured across coil,<br />
check relay on MBB or CXB <strong>and</strong> associated wiring.<br />
4. Verify CSB wiring.<br />
5. Return to Normal mode <strong>and</strong> observe compressor operation<br />
to verify that compressor current sensor is working<br />
<strong>and</strong> condenser fans are energized after compressor starts.<br />
T057 (Circuit A, High Pressure Switch Failure)<br />
T058 (Circuit B, High Pressure Switch Failure) — The<br />
high pressure switch for each circuit is wired in series with the<br />
compressor contactor coils of each compressor on the circuit to<br />
disable compressor operation immediately upon a high discharge<br />
pressure condition. The normally closed contacts in the<br />
switches are calibrated to open at 650 ± 10 psig which corresponds<br />
to a saturated condensing temperature of 155.6 ± 1.3 F.<br />
The pressure switches will automatically reset when the discharge<br />
pressure is reduced to 500 ± 15 psig which corresponds<br />
to a saturated condensing temperature of 134.1 ± 2.4 F.<br />
The output of each high pressure switch is wired to inputs<br />
on the RXB to provide the control with an indication of a high<br />
pressure switch trip. This alarm could occur when compressors<br />
are off if the wiring to the switch is broken or the switch has<br />
failed open.<br />
If the high pressure switch trips on a circuit with compressors<br />
comm<strong>and</strong>ed on, the discharge pressure is recorded. If the<br />
recorded discharge pressure is between 630 to 660 psig (saturated<br />
condensing temperature between 153.0 <strong>and</strong> 156.9 F), <strong>and</strong><br />
is also less than the value recorded on any previous high pressure<br />
switch trip, the upper horizontal portion of the compressor<br />
operating envelope (see Fig. 18) is lowered 0.4 F (3 psig). The<br />
control will not allow the compressor operating envelope to be<br />
lowered below 153.0 F (630 psig).<br />
This is done to make a rough calibration of the high pressure<br />
switch trip point. In most cases this allows the control to<br />
detect a high head pressure condition prior to reaching the high<br />
pressure switch trip point.<br />
When the trip occurs, all mechanical cooling on the circuit<br />
is shut down for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the circuit is allowed<br />
to restart.<br />
T068 (Circuit A Return Gas Thermistor Failure) — This<br />
alarm trips during a thermistor failure of the return gas temperature<br />
sensor. It is used with MLV option only.
