DETERMINE TYPE OF UNIT CONTROL

The procedures used to light or shut off the unit depend on the type of unit control. This section will help determine the control type of the unit.

Electro-Mechanical Control

These units may be controlled directly by a thermostat, or indirectly by a third-party control that connects to the thermostat inputs. For direct thermostat control, use the Electro-Mechanical Control procedures in this book. For units with third-party controls connected to the thermostat inputs, refer to the third-party control instructions for procedures to ensure complete unit shut off.

ComfortLinkt Control

These units have a factory-installed Carrier ComfortLink control. A Scrolling Marquee display is located on the front of the unit control box behind the control box and compressor access door. These units may be controlled directly by a thermostat, directly by a space temperature sensor, or indirectly through other Carrier Comfort Networkr (CCN) communication devices. To ensure complete unit shut off, use the ComfortLink Control procedures in this book.
