resideo ST9120U Universal Electronic Fan Timers

APPLICATION

The ST9120U Universal Electronic Fan Timers integrate control of all combustion blower and circulating fan operations in a gas warm air appliance. This control is the central wiring point for most of the electrical components in the furnace. The basic purposes of the ST9120U are to monitor the thermostat for heat, cool and fan demands, run the induced draft blower motor and run a circulating fan (up to two speeds) as required.
The electronic fan timers also monitor limit switch strings and energize separate ignition control systems through spst pressure switches. The ST9120U can replace any ST9101 or ST9120 listed in Table 2 below.
The electronic fan timers feature a field-adjustable heat fan-on delay, a field-adjustable heat fan-off delay, a field-adjustable cool fan-on delay and a fixed cool fan off delay.

Electronic air cleaner (EAC) and humidifier (HUM) convenience terminal connections are provided as an option. Continuous low speed indoor air circulation is also provided.

SPECIFICATIONS

INSTALLATION

When Installing this Product…

1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow them could damage the product or cause a hazardous condition.
2. Check the ratings and specifications given in the instructions and on the product to make sure the product is suitable for your application.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service technician.
4. After installation is complete, check out the product operation as provided in these instructions.

WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause severe injury, death or property damage.
Disconnect power supply before wiring to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.
More than one disconnection can be required.

Location and Mounting
Mount the ST9120U Electronic Fan Timer in the appliance wiring compartment using the four provided No. 6 self-tapping screws.

Wiring
Make sure that all wiring complies with local codes and ordinances. Disconnect power before making wiring connections. Refer to Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4 for standard wiring connections. Refer to Figs. 5 and 6 for internal schematics. Refer to Fig. 7 for schematic of provided ST9101 wiring adapter.

Setting Adjustable Heat Fan DIP Switches
Set the heat fan-on delay and cool fan-on delay DIP switches as shown in Fig. 8. The heat-on delay time starts when the main gas valve is energized at the start of a thermostat call for heat; the heat-off delay time starts when the main gas valve is de-energized at the end of a thermostat call for heat. The cool fan-on delay time starts when the compressor is energized at the start of a thermostat call for cool.

ST9120 to ST9120U Wiring Conversion Instructions

1. Turn off power to appliance. Carefully remove each wire and connect directly to the corresponding location on the new ST9120U control board. Be careful to directly connect to the new terminal with the same labeled identity or label each wire prior to removing from the original board. If original thermostat connection was a quick connect, cut off quick connect, strip wire and insert into terminal block.
2. Identify the model number of the board being replaced and set the dip switches based on Table 2.

ST9101 to ST9120U Wiring Conversion Instructions

1. Turn off power to appliance and carefully remove each wire and connect directly to the new ST9120U control board before removing the existing control.
Use Table 1 to determine the proper ST9120U terminal for each corresponding ST9101 connection board. Be careful to directly connect to the new terminal or label each wire prior to removal from original board.

Table 1. ST9101 to ST9120U Wiring Conversions

ACC terminal is used in ST9101 systems, which use the same fan speed for both heating and cooling. In order to use the ST9120 to replace ST9101 devices in this type of system, the fan connection that originally was connected to ACC on the ST9101 needs to be connected to both heat and cool connections on the ST9120U.
2. Unplug the 9-pin connector and plug existing wiring harness directly into the 9-pin connector found on the ST9101 wiring adapter.
3. Plug the 6-pin connector found on the ST9101 wiring adapter directly to the open 6-pin connector on the new ST9120U control board.
4. Take the two remaining white wires on the ST9101 wiring adapter and connect to Neutral quick connect terminals 3 and 4 on the ST9120U
5. Take the black wire on the ST9101 wiring adapter and connect to the S1 quick connect terminal on the ST9120U
6. Take the blue wire on the ST9101 wiring adapter and connect to the D1 quick connect terminal on the ST9120U
7. Identify the model number of the board being replaced and set the dip switches based on Table 2.

CHECKOUT
Operate the system through at least one complete heating cycle and cooling cycle to make sure the system operates properly. Troubleshoot by checking for appropriate voltages at the ST9120U terminals controlling the combustion blower and heat and cool speed circulating fan. The ST9120U schematics show internal switching to clarify operation and assist in troubleshooting. See Figs. 5 and 6.
