DXM2 Controls

DXM2 Control

DXM2 is the next generation in controls is capable of 2-way communication between itself and smart components, like the communicating thermostat, fan motor and configuration/ diagnostic tool.

For most residential applications, configuration, monitoring and diagnostics can be done from the thermostat / service tool and there’s no need to read LEDs and change DIP switches.

For details on user settings, refer to User Manual (part #:

For details on Installer settings (not to be used by consumers), refer to Installer manual (part #:

For details on installer/service settings on the configuration/ diagnostic tool, refer to operation manual (part #:

DXM2 Control Start-up Operation

The control will not operate until all inputs and safety controls are checked for normal conditions. The compressor will have a 5 minute anti-short cycle delay at power-up. The first time after power-up that there is a call for compressor, the compressor will follow a 5 to 80 second random start delay. After the random start delay and anti-short cycle delay,

the compressor relay will be energized. On all subsequent compressor calls, the random start delay is omitted.

Test Mode button:

Test mode allows the service technician to check the operation of the control in a timely manner. By momentarily pressing the TEST pushbutton, the DXM2 control enters a 20 minute test mode period in which all time delays are sped up 15 times.

thermostat be used with DXM2 control, to ensure easy configuration, monitoring and diagnostics, in PLAIN English, on the thermostat. For example, Airflow can NOT be configured without a communicating thermostat or Configuration/ Diagnostic tool for use with GeoMax2.

Field Configuration Options - Note: In the following field configuration options, jumper wires should be clipped ONLY when power is removed from the DXM2 control.

Set A0-2 jumper to “IOV” if using Modulating Motorized Valve as field installed accessory

DIP Switches - For residential applications, all configuration can be performed in PLAIN ENGLISH on the thermostat. No DIP switch changes are required and no LEDs to be observed.

CAUTION!

CAUTION! Do not restart units without inspection and remedy of faulting condition. Equipment damage may occur.
