60 seconds. The module will continue to display the previous flash code until the condition returns to normal or 24VAC is removed from the module. TRIP and ALERT LEDs flashing at the same time means control circuit voltage is too low for operation.
24VAC Power Wiring
The diagnostic module requires a constant nominal 24VAC power supply. The wiring to the module’s R and C terminals must be directly from the indoor unit or thermo- stat. The module cannot be powered by R and C terminals on the defrost board without experiencing nuisance alerts.
