   (1(a)-1(a), 2(b)-2(b), 3(c)-3(c)). The order of interconnection of all the devices listed above is not important. Be aware that modules on the closest and farthest end of the daisy chain configuration string require a 120 ohm (1/4 watt minimum) resistor termination across terminals 1 and 2 of the electrical connectors, for connections over 100 feet.

7. Recommended wire routing of leadwires:

   • a. Do not run high voltage ignition transformer wires in the same conduit with the flame detector, Data Controlbus Module™, or Remote Reset Module wiring.
   • b. Do not route flame detector, Data Controlbus Module™, or Remote Reset Module leadwires in conduit with line voltage circuits.
   • c. Enclose flame detector leadwires without armor cable in metal cable or conduit.
   • d. Follow directions in flame detector, Data Controlbus Module™, or Remote Reset Module Instructions.

8. Keyboard Display Module (KDM): Because the KDM is powered from a low voltage, energy limited source, it can be mounted outside of a control panel if it is protected from mechanical damage.
   NOTE: A 13 Vdc power supply must be used any time more than one Keyboard Display Module is used.

9. Maximum wire lengths follow:

   • a. RM7800/RM7840 leadwires—The maximum length of leadwire is 300 feet to terminal inputs (Control, Preignition Interlock, Running/Lockout Interlock, High Fire Switch and Low Fire Switch).
   • b. Flame Detector leadwires—The maximum flame sensor leadwire length is limited by the flame signal strength.
   • c. Remote Reset leadwires—The maximum length of wire is 1000 feet to a Remote Reset pushbutton.
   • d. Data Controlbus Module™—The maximum Data Controlbus Module™ cable length depends on the number of system modules connected, the noise conditions and the cable used. The maximum length of all Data Controlbus Module™ interconnecting wire is 1000 feet.

10. Make sure loads do not exceed the terminal ratings. Refer to the label on the RM7800/RM7840 or to the ratings in Tables 3, 4 and 5.

Final Wiring Check

1. Check the power supply circuit. The voltage and frequency tolerance must match those of the RM7800/RM7840. A separate power supply circuit may be required for the RM7800/RM7840. Add the required disconnect means and overload protection.
2. Check all wiring circuits and complete the Static Checkout, see Table 8, before installing the RM7800/RM7840 on the subbase.
3. Install all electrical connectors.
4. Restore power to the panel.

Table 2. Recommended Grounding Practices.

1.  Use to provide a connection between the subbase and the control panel of the equipment. Earth ground must be capable of conducting enough current to blow the 20A fuse (or breaker) in the event of an internal short circuit.
2. Use wide straps or brackets to provide minimum length, maximum surface area ground conductors. If a leadwire must be used, use 14 AWG copper wire.
3. Make sure that mechanically tightened joints along the ground path are free of nonconductive coatings and protected against corrosion on mating surfaces.

Signal ground (KDM, Data ControlBus Module™, Communications Interface ControlBus™ Module).| Use the shield of the signal wire to ground the device to the signal ground terminals [3(c)] of each device. Connect the shield at both ends of the chain to earth ground.

Table 3. Terminal Ratings

• The relay module must have an earth ground providing a connection between the subbase and the control panel or the equipment. The earth ground wire must be capable of conducting the current to blow the 15A fuse (or breaker) in event of an internal short circuit. The relay module requires a low impedance ground connection to the equipment frame, which, in turn, requires a low impedance connection to earth ground.
• 2000 VA maximum connected load to relay module assembly.
• See tables 4 and 5.
• RM7800G,M/RM7840G,M operating frequency determined by relay module selection.

Mounting RM7800/RM7840 Relay Module (Fig. 5)

1. Mount the RM7800/RM7840 vertically on the Q7800 Subbase, or mount horizontally with the knife blade terminals pointing downward. When mounted on the Q7800A, the RM7800/RM7840 must be in an electrical enclosure.

2. When mounting in an electrical enclosure, provide adequate clearance for servicing, installation and removal of the RM7800/RM7840, Keyboard Display Module, flame amplifier, flame amplifier signal voltage probes, electrical signal voltage probes, and electrical connections.

   •  Allow an additional two inches below the RM7800/RM7840 for the flame amplifier mounting.
   • Allow an optional three-inch minimum to both sides of the RM7800/RM7840 for electrical signal voltage probes.

3. Make sure no subbase wiring is projecting beyond the terminal blocks. Tuck in wiring against the back of the subbase so it does not interfere with the knife blade terminals or bifurcated contacts.
   IMPORTANT
   The RM7800/RM7840 must be installed with a plug-in motion rather than a hinge action.

4. Mount the RM7800/RM7840 by aligning the four L- shaped corner guides and knife blade terminals with the bifurcated contacts on the wiring subbase and securely tighten the two screws without deforming the plastic.

OPERATION

Sequence of Operation
The RM7800/RM7840 has the following operating sequences, see Fig. 2, 3, 4, and Table 6. The RM7800/RM7840 LED provide positive visual indication of the program sequence: POWER, PILOT, FLAME, MAIN and ALARM.

Initiate
The RM7800/RM7840 enters the INITIATE sequence when the Relay Module is powered. The RM7800/RM7840 can also enter the INITIATE sequence if the Relay Module verifies voltage fluctuations of +10/-15 percent or frequency fluctuations of +/-10 percent during any part of the operating sequence. The INITIATE sequence lasts for ten seconds unless the voltage or frequency tolerances are not met. When the tolerances are not met, a hold condition is initiated and displayed on the VFD for at least five seconds. When the tolerances are met, the INITIATE sequence restarts. If the condition is not corrected and the hold condition exists for four minutes, the RM7800/RM7840 locks out. Causes for hold conditions in the INITIATE sequence:

• a. AC line dropout is detected.
• b. AC line frequency error occurs caused by using a 60 Hz device on a 50 Hz line, or vice versa.
• c. AC line noise prevents a sufficient reading of the line voltage inputs.
• d. Low line voltage brownouts occur.

The INITIATE sequence also delays the burner motor starter from being energized and de-energized from an intermittent AC line input or control input.

Standby
The RM7800/RM7840 is ready to start an operating sequence when the operating control determines a call for heat is present. The burner switch, limits, operating control and all microcomputer monitored circuits must be in the correct state for the RM7800/RM7840 to continue into the PREPURGE sequence.

Normal Start-Up Prepurge
The RM7800/RM7840 provides a prepurge timing selectable from two seconds to 30 minutes with power applied and the RM7800 operating control indicating a call for heat:

• a. Running Interlocks, Preignition Interlocks, Burner Switch, Run/Test Switch, Lockout Interlocks and all microcomputer monitored circuits must be in the correct operating state.

• b. The blower motor output, terminal 5, is powered to start the PREPURGE sequence, except for the RM7800E/RM7840. The firing rate motor is driven to the high fire position. The PREPURGE timing for the RM7800/RM7840E,L does not begin until the Lockout Interlock String and High Fire Switch are both closed. The blower motor output for the RM7800E is not energized until the High Fire Switch is closed.

• The Preignition Interlock input must remain closed throughout PREPURGE; otherwise, control returns to the STANDBY state and holds (30 seconds) for the RM7800/RM7840G,M or safety shutdown for the RM7800/RM7840E,L occurs.
  The Lockout Interlock or Running Interlock inputs (interlock circuit including Airflow Switch) must close by ten seconds into PREPURGE; otherwise, a recycle to the beginning of PREPURGE for the RM7800/RM7840G,M will happen or a safety shutdown for the RM7800/RM7840E,L occurs.

• e. When PREPURGE timing is complete, the firing rate motor drives to the low fire position,
  RM7800/RM7840E,G,L.

• f. When the firing rate motor reaches low fire position, the Low Fire Switch, terminal 18, input must be energized before entering the Ignition Trial state.

Ignition Trials

1. Pilot Flame Establishing Period (PFEP):
   a. With the firing rate motor at the low fire position:
   (1) The pilot valve and ignition transformer, terminals 8, 10 and 21, are energized. The RM7800M has an intermittent pilot valve, terminal 21. The RM7800/RM7840G has an interrupted or intermittent pilot valve, terminal 21, depending on the selection of configuration jumper 2. The RM7800/RM7840E,L has a fifteen-second interrupted pilot valve, terminal 21. All of the RM7800/RM7840s have a
   ten-second interrupted pilot valve/ignition, terminal 8.
   (2) During PFEP, the Low Fire Switch must remain closed. If it opens, a safety shutdown occurs.
   (3) The Preignition Interlock input is ignored throughout the Ignition Trial state.
   b. Flame must be proven by the end of the ten-second PFEP (four if JR1 is clipped) to allow the sequence to continue. If flame is not proven by the end of PFEP, a safety shutdown occurs.
   c. After five seconds, the ignition, terminal 10, is
   de-energized for early spark termination.

2. Main Flame Establishing Period (MFEP):
   a. Terminal 9 is energized when the presence of flame is verified at the end of a 10-second Pilot Flame Establishing Period (PFEP) (four seconds if JR1 is clipped).
   b. Terminal 8 is turned off 10 seconds after Terminal 9 is energized.
   c. Terminal 21 action:
   (1) RM7800E,L/RM7840E,L: De-energized
   15 seconds after Terminal 9 is energized.
   (2) RM7840G:
   (a) Not turned off, or
   (b)15 seconds after Terminal 9 is energized andJR2 is clipped, or
   (c)30 seconds after Terminal 9 is energized and Terminals 5 and 19 are jumpered and jumper JR2 is clipped.
   (3) RM7800L1053, RM7840L1026, RM7800M/RM7840M: Remain energized as long as call for heat is present.

Run

1. A ten-second stabilization period occurs at the beginning of the RUN period.

2. The firing rate motor releases to modulation
   (RM7800/RM7840E,G,L). Damper motor is energized (RM7800/RM7840M).

3. The RM7800/RM7840 is now in RUN and remains in RUN until the controller input, terminal 6, opens, indicating that the demand is satisfied or a limit opened.

Postpurge
The RM7800/RM7840 provides a fifteen-second POSTPURGE following the completion of the RUN period. The blower motor output is powered to drive all products of combustion and any unburned fuel from the combustion chamber. It also supplies combustion air to burn fuel being purged from the fuel line downstream of the fuel shutoff valve.

1. The main fuel valve and intermittent pilot valve, Terminals 9 and 21, are de-energized and the firing rate motor is commanded to the low fire position to begin the POSTPURGE period.
2. The Preignition Interlock closes within the first five seconds of POSTPURGE.

Keyboard Display Module (VFD)
The Keyboard Display Module (see Fig. 5) is provided with the RM7800 Relay Module (but is not required for operation) and is an option for the RM7840 Relay Module. The first line of the Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) provides:

• Current status of the burner sequence (STANDBY, PURGE, PILOT IGN, MAIN IGN, RUN and POSTPURGE).
• Timing information (PURGE, PILOT IGN, MAIN IGN and POSTPURGE) in minutes and seconds.
• Hold information (PURGE HOLD: T19).
• Lockout information (Lockout, Fault Code, Message and Sequence).

The extreme right side of the first line is either blank or shows a small arrow pointing to the second line followed by a
two-letter code (DI-Diagnostic Information, Hn-Fault History Information, and EA-Expanded Annunciator). When the arrow and two-letter code are displayed, it indicates the second line is showing a selectable message submenu.
The second line displays selectable or preemptive messages.

A selectable message supplies information for flame strength, system status indication, system or self-diagnostics and troubleshooting.

A preemptive message has parentheses around the message and supplies a detailed message to support the sequence status information. A preemptive message can also be a lockout message. A preemptive message replaces a selectable message to support the sequence status information. It also replaces a selectable message after 60 seconds if it or a lockout message is available.

Run/Test Switch

WARNING
Explosion Hazard.
Can cause serious injury or death.
Do not use the Run/Test switch during the Pilot Flame Establishing Period for the RM7800/RM7840G,M when using Direct Spark Function, because it turns on the main gas valve, causing an accumulation of fuel in the burner.

The Run/Test Switch is located on the top side of the RM7800/RM7840, see Fig. 6. The Run/Test Switch allows the burner sequence to be altered as follows:

1. In Prepurge Drive To High Fire Position, the Run/Test Switch, when placed in the TEST position, holds in PREPURGE with the firing rate motor in the High Fire position.
2. In the measured PREPURGE sequence, the Run/Test Switch, when placed in the TEST position, causes the PREPURGE timing to stop. The firing rate motor is in the High Fire position.
3. In Prepurge Drive to Low Fire position, the Run/Test Switch, when placed in the TEST position, holds the burner sequence in PREPURGE with the firing rate motor in the Low Fire position.
4. In PFEP, the Run/Test Switch, when placed in the TEST position, stops the timer during the first eight seconds when a ten second PFEP is selected or during the first three seconds when a four second PFEP is selected, allowing pilot-turn-down test and other burner adjustments to be made. This activates a fifteen second flameout timer that permits pilot flame adjustment without nuisance safety shutdowns. The Run/Test Switch is ignored during PFEP for the RM7800/RM7840E,L if Terminals 8 and 9 or 9 and 21 are jumpered.
5. During Run, the Run/Test Switch, when placed in the TEST position, drives the firing rate motor to the Low Fire position.

NOTE: When RM7800/RM7840 is switched to the Test mode, it stops and holds at the next Run/Test Switch point in the operating sequence. Make sure that the Run/Test Switch is in the RUN position before leaving the installation.

Table 7. Site Configurable Jumper Options.

Jumper Number| Description| Intact| Clipped| RM7800/RM7840 Type
---|---|---|---|---
JR1| Pilot Flame Establishing Period (PFEP)| 10 seconds| 4 seconds| All
JR2| Pilot Valvea/Main Flame Establishing Period (MFEP)| 10 seconds Intermittent| 15 or 30 seconds Interruptedb| RM7800G/RM7840G
JR3| Start-up Interlock Check| Disabled| Enabled| All

• a Pilot Valve /First Stage Oil Valve (Valve/Start) Terminal 21.
• b A 30 second MFEP can be accomplished by adding a jumper wire between Terminals 19 and 5.

SERVICE NOTE:Clipping and removing a site-configurable jumper enhances the level of safety. Removal after 200 hours of main valve operation will result in a hard lockout, Code 110.

STATIC CHECKOUT
After checking all wiring, perform this checkout before installing the RM7800/RM7840 on the subbase. These tests verify the Q7800 Wiring Subbase is wired correctly, and the external controllers, limits, interlocks, actuators, valves, transformers, motors and other devices are operating properly.

WARNING
Explosion and Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause serious injury, death or equipment damage.

1. Close all manual fuel shutoff valve(s) before starting these tests.
2. Use extreme care while testing the system. Line voltage is present on most terminal connections when power is on.
3. Open the master switch before installing or removing a jumper on the subbase.
4. Before continuing to the next test, be sure to remove test jumper(s) used in the previous test.
5. Replace all limits and interlocks that are not operating properly. Do not bypass limits and interlocks.

CAUTION
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Improper testing can damage equipment. Internal surge protectors can break down and conduct a current, causing the RM7800/RM7840 to fail the dielectric test or possibly destroy the internal lightning and high current protection. Do not perform a dielectric test with the RM7800/RM7840 installed.

Equipment Recommended

1. Voltmeter (1M ohm/volt minimum sensitivity) set on the 0- 300 Vac scale.
2. Two jumper wires; no. 14 wire, insulated, 12 inches (304.8 mm) long with insulated alligator clips at both ends.

General Instructions

1. Perform all applicable tests listed in Static Checkout, Table 8, in the order listed.
2. Make sure all manual fuel shutoff valve(s) are closed.
3. Perform only those tests designated for the specific RM7800/RM7840 model being tested.
4. Raise the setpoint of the operating controller to simulate a call for heat.
5. For each test, open the master switch and install the jumper wire(s) between the subbase wiring terminals listed in the Test Jumpers column.
6. Close the master switch before observing operation.
7. Read the voltage between the subbase wiring terminals listed in the Voltmeter column.
8. If there is no voltage or the operation is abnormal, check the circuits and external devices as described in the last column.
9. Check all wiring for correct connections, tight terminal screws, correct wire, and proper wiring techniques. Replace all damaged or incorrectly sized wires. Replace faulty controllers, limits, interlocks, actuators, valves, transformers, motors and other devices as required.
10. Make sure normal operation is obtained for each required test before continuing the checkout.
11. After completing each test, be sure to remove the test jumper(s).

WARNING
Explosion Hazard.
Can cause serious injury or death.
Make sure all manual fuel shutoff valves are closed before performing static checkout.
