Table 33: Outdoor air damper stays closed

Probable cause

Explanation

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can communicate a desired operating mode (such as OFF, HEAT, and COOL) to the controller. When

 

Requested mode OFF

OFF is communicated to the controller, the unit controls the fan OFF. There is no heating or cooling

 

(valves are closed).

 

 

 

When the fan is OFF and the outdoor air temperature is below the freeze avoidance setpoint, the

Freeze avoidance

controller disables economizing and keeps the outdoor air damper closed. This includes UNOCCUPIED

 

mode when there is no call for capacity or any other time the fan is OFF.

 

 

UNOCCUPIED mode

When the controller is in the UNOCCUPIED mode, the outdoor air damper remains closed unless

economizing is enabled.

 

 

 

 

The controller includes both a morning warm up and cool-down sequence to keep the outdoor air

Warm up and cool-down

damper closed during the transition from UNOCCUPIED to OCCUPIED. This is an attempt to bring the

 

space under control as quickly as possible.

 

 

 

The controller opens and closes the outdoor air damper based on the controller's occupancy mode and

 

fan operation. Normally, the outdoor air damper is open during OCCUPIED, OCCUPIED STANDBY, and

Normal operation

OCCUPIED BYPASS mode when the fan is running and closed during UNOCCUPIED mode unless the

 

controller is economizing. For more information see, Modulating Outdoor Air Operation, on page 43 for

 

more information.)

 

 

 

Table 34: Outdoor air damper stays open

 

 

Probable Cause

Explanation

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unit wiring

The wiring between the controller outputs and the outdoor air damper must be present and correct for

normal damper operation.

 

 

 

 

The controller must be properly configured based on the actual installed end devices and application.

Unit configuration

When the unit configuration does not match the actual end devices, the damper may not work

 

correctly.

 

 

 

The controller includes a manual output test sequence you can use to verify output operation and

Manual output test

associated output wiring. However, based on the current step in the test sequence, the unit damper

 

may be open. For more information see, Manual Output Test, on page 48 for more information.)

 

 

 

The controller opens and closes the outdoor air damper based on the controller's occupancy mode and

 

fan operation. Normally, the outdoor air damper is open during OCCUPIED, OCCUPIED STANDBY, and

Normal operation

OCCUPIED BYPASS mode when the fan is running and closed during UNOCCUPIED mode unless the

 

controller is economizing. For more information see, Modulating Outdoor Air Operation, on page 43 for

 

more information.)
