In addition to LED’s, the zone panel has a full function built-in backlit display panel that provides information on the current operations of the zone panel. When the zone panel is running in normal operation, the display is updated continuously to show the system operating parameters. The system will show the following status screens on the display.

HEAT CALLS
Number of heat calls currently being serviced. Check the panel LED if it is necessary to determine exactly which zones are calling for heat operation. If Auxiliary Heat or Emergency Heat calls are active, the display will replace heat calls with Auxiliary or Emergency Heat Calls.

COOL CALLS
Number of cool calls currently being serviced. Check the panel LED if it is necessary to determine exactly which zones are calling for cooling operation.

FAN CALLS
Number of fan calls currently being serviced. Check the panel LED if it is necessary to determine exactly which zones are calling for fan operation.
Equipment Plenum Temperature (PLENUM TEMP) When the optional plenum air temperature sensor is installed and enabled, the zone panel will display the Plenum temperature in the range of 30 – 200˚ F (-1 – 93˚C). Plenum Temperatures outside this range indicate an equipment error. See Section 7 Error Conditions for a further explanation.
NOTES: When no zones are calling, the panel will command all dampers to open.

• For maximum energy conservation, a purge will occur at the end of each call.
• No calls will be answered until the purge is complete.
• Dampers will not close if the plenum temperature sensor is not connected or is not functioning properly.

Emergency Heat Selection (Multi-stage Heat Pump Systems Only) Emergency Heat can be selected at the main panel or from a Heat Pump Thermostat wired to the main panel. No cooling calls will be answered if emergency heat is switched on.

To select Emergency Heat from the main panel:

1. Press and release the EM HEAT button located below the main display.
2. The display will update from HEAT CALLS to EM HEAT CALLS and will show COOL DISABLE to indicate that no compressor calls will be answered.
3. To stop Emergency Heat, press the EM HEAT button again.
4. The display will update from EM HEAT CALLS to HEAT CALLS and COOL CALLS will return.

To select Emergency Heat from a thermostat

1. Set Emergency Heat Thermostat to Emergency Heat switch position (only one thermostat can control Emergency Heat)
   NOTE: Configuration setting number 22 in section 4 selects which thermostat is used to activate Emergency Heat.

2. Raise heat setting on Emergency Heat Thermostat to create Emergency Heat call.

3. The zone panel display will update from HEAT CALLS to EM HEAT CALLS and will show COOL DISABLE to indicate that no compressor calls will be answered.

4. To stop Emergency Heat, set the Emergency Heat Thermostat to a non-emergency heat position or lower the temperature on the Emergency Heat Thermostat to end the emergency heat call.

5. The zone panel display will update from EM HEAT CALLS to HEAT CALLS and COOL CALLS.

NOTE: Activating Emergency Heat Mode disables cooling calls from all zones and answers all heating calls with Emergency Heat.

Error Conditions

The zone panel continually monitors various components of the zone system and will display a message when the following monitored conditions are detected.

COOL DISABLE
Cooling is disabled when Emergency Heat has been selected on a heat pump system
Selecting emergency heat from a thermostat (See Installer Option 21) in heat mode will disable compressor cooling in all zones. To enable cooling, turn Emergency Heat Off at the panel and/or the priority thermostat calling for emergency heat and make a call other than emergency heat from the priority thermostat.

High Plenum Temperature (PLENUM HI)
Displayed when the Plenum Temperature is exceeded during equipment heating operation. All heating stages will be turned off and the fan will be turned on until the plenum temperature returns to the normal range. Service the system immediately to prevent potential damage.

Low Plenum Temperature (PLENUM LO)
Displayed when the Plenum Temperature is too low during equipment cooling operation. All cooling stages will be turned off and the fan will be turned on until the plenum temperature returns to the normal range. Service the system immediately to prevent potential damage.

Plenum Sensor Bad
Displayed when an error has been detected with the plenum sensor. This error must be corrected by servicing the zone panel plenum sensor. If the sensor is not operating correctly, the zone panel will not call for additional stages of heating or cooling. You can also disable the plenum sensor (see section 4). Outdoor Sensor Bad (ODTSENS)
Displayed when an error has been detected with the outdoor sensor. This error must be corrected by servicing the zone panel outdoor sensor. If the outdoor sensor is not operating correctly, the zone panel will not use outdoor balance point control for heating calls.
