M2 Unit Controller Economizer Start-Up and Operation
The unit will be equipped with either an M2, M3, or M4 Unit Controller. M2,
M3, or M4 will be printed on the bottom of the Unit Controller near the SBUS
connector. Use the appropriate start-up section in this manual and refer to
the Unit Controller provided with the rooftop unit. Application manuals are
available for all Unit Controllers.
The economizer is controlled by the Unit Controller which is located in the
unit control panel. A detailed menu layout can be found in the Unit Controller
manual provided with each unit.
A-Field-Installed Economizer
The Unit Controller must be set to identify an economizer has been installed.
1 – Use the Unit Controller keypad to enter the following menu:
Setting / Install / Damper
2 – Use the up/down arrows to display ECON and press the SELECT button (!SET!
will display).
3 – Press the left arrow returning up the menu path until the Unit Controller
resets and saves the change.
The Unit Controller will now operate the economizer.
B-Free Cooling Mode and Setpoint
On start-up, the economizer mode defaults to TEMP OFFSET. In this mode, free
cooling is energized when the outdoor air temperature (RT17) is less than
return air temperature (RT16) by at least the offset value. The default offset
value is 10°F. Use the following menu path on the Unit Controller to adjust
the free cooling mode or setpoint. See FIGURE 13 for sensor location.
Settings / Setpoints / Damper / Economizer Mode
Refer to TABLE 2 and FIGURE 12 for additional free cooling modes and
setpoints. The Unit Controller has a restricted range of input values for each
mode as shown in TABLE 2.
NOTE – An energy management system may be used to provide the outdoor air
suitable (OAS) signal via network connection. The free cooling mode must be
set to one of the TEMP modes to allow this function.
C-California Title 24 Compliance
For California Title 24 compliance, adjust the free cooling setpoint based on:
· The climate zone where the unit is installed. See TABLE 3.
· The setpoint requirement published by the California Energy Commission. See
Section 140.4 Prescriptive Requirements for Space Conditioning Systems of the
2013 Building Energy Efficiency Standards.

Economizer Operation
NOTE – Use indicating lights on Unit Controller to determine thermostat
demand.
See TABLE 6 for economizer operation with a standard two-stage thermostat
TABLE 7 shows economizer operation with an energy management system which uses
a global sensor.
Both tables show the occupied and unoccupied time period. The occupied time
period is determined by the thermostat or energy management system.
TABLE 8 shows economizer operation in zone sensor mode.
IAQ DAMPER OPERATION
The M2 and M3 Unit Controllers have a 0-10VDC IAQ input for a standard
0-2000ppm CO2 sensor. The economizer starts opening at a CO2 level of 500 ppm
(default) and reaches full open at a CO2 level of 1000ppm.
M2 Unit Controller
These levels are adjustable as outlined in the M2 Unit Controller manual under
the menu Settings > Setpoints > IAQ.
If the economizer is operating in the free cooling mode and the IAQ sensor
demands more fresh air, the IAQ demand will override the free cooling demand
to open the dampers further or to keep them open.
A flashing OAS LED on the Unit Controller indicates an IAQ override condition.
The IAQ function is not energized during the unoccupied or night time period.

2.0 M3 Unit Controller Economizer Start-Up and Operation
The economizer, when configured, controls:
· Damper position, which determines how much outdoor air is used to meet free
cooling or indoor air quality requirements, and
· Optional power exhaust fans.
On a cooling demand, outdoor air is used for free cooling instead of first-
stage compressor(s) when outdoor air is suitable.
1.1. Enabling Economizer and Settings
To enable the economizer if installed go to SETUP > INSTALL and go through the
wizard.
When reaching Configuration ID 1, position 2 will need to be set to the
applicable type of economizer. Valid types are as indicated below:
· M = Motorized Outdoor Air Damper Only
· T = Economizer – Temperature (Note: Used for both set point and offset
temperature control.)
· G = Economizer – Global
· S = Economizer – Single Enthalpy
· D = Economizer – Dual Enthalpy
The following options are available depending on economizer set above. These
settings are available through the main menu at:

1.2. Damper Operation During Free Cooling
These are operating profile options for the economizer damper (Parameter 164 –
ECONOMIZER PROFILE) during free cooling when any compressor is on and can be
selected as follows:
Option 0: Damper continues to modulate while compressors are on, but the
effect of mechanical cooling may force the damper closed to its minimum
position. After compressor starts, the free cooling set point is lowered to
fixed temperature setting of 45°F.
Option 1: Damper opens to its maxopen position (Parameter 131 – FREE CL MAX
DAMPER) when any compressors start.
NOTE – When using Option 1 and after the compressor is stopped, the M3 shall
resume damper modulation.
Option 2: Is as follows:
· Holds-off compressor on Y2 call until damper has modulated to maximum
position (Parameter 131 FREE CL MAX DAMPER) for three minutes.
Page 13
· After three minutes, the compressor starts and the free cooling set point is
lowered to 45°F. Damper is not locked at maximum open while compressor is on,
but modulates to maintain 45°F discharge air temperature.
· When Y2 is satisfied, compressor goes off and free cooling set point is
restored to 55°F (Parameter 159 FREE COOL SUPPLY SP).
Option 3: Same as Option 2, but with a ten-minute delay instead of a three-
minute delay.
1.3. Free Cooling Compressor Lockout Mode and Low Ambient Set Point
Go to SETTINGS > RTU OPTION > EDIT PARAMETER = 285 (FRCL COMP LCKOUT MD).
Default value is 2. Range is 0 to 2.
0 = Disable Compressor Lockout

only Demand Control Ventilation. Free Cooling/Economizer function is not
available.
1.9. Economizer Checkout
The following checkout procedures are completed with unit energized. Confirm
proper operation of the heartbeat LED. Step 1 will determine whether the
economizer is allowing full damper travel. Use step 2 when the damper does not
respond to step 1.
Steps 3, 4, 5, and 6 checkout the operating modes; checkout only the mode that
applies to the unit being worked on.
CAUTION
Power exhaust fans will be functional. To prevent operation of power exhaust
fans, disconnect power to unit and then PED jack/plug P/J18.
Page 16
Step 1- ECONOMIZER OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The M3 Unit Controller monitors P262 (DPOS) and operates as reference in
Section Damper Diagnostics in the (M3 Unit Controller) Application Guide
(Advance Features).
A – Go to SERVICE > TEST > DAMPER>POSITION > DAMPER POSITION ACTUAL: 0.0% The
motor will slowly modulate to the closed position.
B – Change DAMPER POSITION ACTUAL to 100.0%. The motor will slowly modulate to
the fully opened position.
C – If the motor does not respond, go to step 2. If the motor does respond
properly, go to the appropriate mode of operation checkout.
Step 2- OUTPUT VOLTAGE CHECK
A – Go to SERVICE > TEST > DAMPER > POSITION > DAMPER POSITION ACTUAL: 0.0%
B – Adjust the DAMPER POSITION ACTUAL: to 0.0% position.
C – Measure the voltage on P262 between pin 3 (VOT damper control) and pin 2
(GND) using pin 1 as common. Voltage should read approximately 2 VDC.
D – Adjust the DAMPER POSITION ACTUAL: to 100.0% position.
NOTE – Allow approximately 90 seconds for actuator to react.
E – Measure the voltage between P262 between pin 3 (VOT damper control) and
pin 2 (GND) using pin 1 as common. Voltage should read approximately 10 volts
DC. If not, check wiring and trouble shoot system.
Step 3- SINGLE ENTHALPY OPERATION (ODE)
In the single enthalpy mode, dampers open for free cooling when the outdoor
enthalpy is less than the enthalpy set point (Parameter 162 – ECON FREECL ENTH
SP); dampers will try to modulate discharge air temperature (RT6) to
(Parameter 159 – FREE COOL SUPPLY SP) which has a default setting of 55.0°F
(13°C).
A – Go to SETUP > INSTALL > press SAVE until you get to the Configuration ID
1, position 2 needs to be set to S for Economizer Single Enthalpy and press
SAVE.
B – To simulate low outdoor enthalpy. Disconnect A7 outdoor enthalpy sensor
jack/plugs J/P104. Connect a 750 ohm resistor across plug J104-1 and J104-2.
J104 is located in the filter access area.
C – Check all connections and wiring between J104 and the control.
Step 4- DUAL ENTHALPY MODE OF OPERATION
In dual enthalpy mode mode, dampers open for free cooling when the outdoor air
enthalpy is lower than the return air enthalpy by difference value of
(Parameter 163 – ECN FRCL ENTH OFFST); dampers will modulate discharge air
temperature (RT6) to (Parameter 159 – FREE COOL SUPPLY SP) which has a default
setting of 55.0°F (13°C).
A – Go to SETUP > INSTALL > press SAVE until you get to the Configuration ID 1
position 2 needs to be set to D for Economizer Dual Enthalpy and press SAVE if
performing an economizer field-install.
B – Use two resistors to simulate outdoor air enthalpy suitable.
C – Disconnect A62 return air enthalpy sensor jack/plug J/P105. Place a 1500
ohm resistor between J105-1 and J105-3. J/P105 is located in the filter access
area.
D – Disconnect A7 outdoor enthalpy sensor jack/plugs J/ P104. Connect a 750
ohm resistor across J104-1 and J104-2.
Step 5- ALL TEMPERATURE MODES OF OPERATION
In the Economizer Temperature mode, the damper opens for free cooling when
the outdoor air temperature is:
· Less than return air temperature by at least a difference of (Parameter 161
– ECON FRCL TMP OFFST) if Temperature Offset mode is selected
· Less than (Parameter 160 – ECON FREECL TEMP SP)
In all modes, dampers will try to modulate discharge air temperature (RT6) to
(Parameter 159 – FREE COOL SUPPLY SP) which has a default setting of 55.0°F
(13°C).
Refer to the “Displaying Sensor Inputs” section to read return air (RT16) and
outdoor air (RT17) temperatures. If outdoor air is not cooler than return air,
simulate a colder outdoor air temperature with a resistor. Select a resistor
value that corresponds to a temperature (see TABLE 14):
A – Locate RT17 sensor in unit. Disconnect 1/4″ quick connect terminals on
wires leading from sensor.
B – Jumper RT17 wires leading back to control with the appropriate resistor.
C – Check all connections and wiring between RT17 and the M3 Unit Controller,
and between RT16 and the M3 Unit Controller.

x.x mA)
C – If the meter reads zero, check sensor wiring harness for continuity and/or
check polarity of sensor wiring.
1.10. Demand Control Ventilation
1.10.1. General
A field-provided and installed indoor air quality (IAQ) sensor can be used
with the modulating economizer or OADM to control carbon dioxide levels in the
conditioned space. The carbon dioxide level in a space is an indicator of the
number of people occupying a room. As the carbon dioxide level rises
(indicating the occupancy of a room has increased), dampers modulate open –
regardless of outdoor air suitability.
Likewise, as the carbon dioxide level falls (indicating the occupancy has
decreased), dampers modulate further closed.
Standard economizer installations have a minimum fresh air ventilation
requirement based on maximum room occupancy. With standard economizer use, the
amount of air required for maximum room occupancy is heated or cooled with
each heating or cooling cycle. IAQ installations use the maximum amount of
required ventilation air only with maximum room occupancy; less outdoor air
needs to be heated or cooled when fewer people are in the conditioned space.
If the economizer is operating in the free cooling mode and the indoor air
quality control requires the damper to open further, the indoor air quality
demand will override the free cooling demand.
The IAQ function is not energized during the unoccupied or night time period.
NOTE – The IAQ sensor may also be used with systems containing a motorized
outdoor air damper.
1.10.2. Default Operation
The M3 Unit Controller has a 0-10VDC indoor air quality input for a standard 0
– 2000ppm carbon dioxide sensor. The economizer starts opening at a carbon
dioxide level of 500 ppm (default) (start open set point) and reaches full
open at a carbon dioxide level of 1000ppm (default) (full open set point).
The damper opens to a default position of 100% (see Parameter 117). Determine
damper travel position using the following formula:
% Damper Travel = carbon dioxide ppm – Start Open ppm
5
Page 18
Example: At a carbon dioxide level of 750ppm, the damper will be approximately
50% open:
Use the menu interface to read carbon dioxide ppm. DATA > IN/OUTPUTS > SENSORS
C02. FIGURE 16 shows default or proportional operation.
1.10.3 Maximum and Minimum Demand Control Ventilation Damper Settings
Maximum position is set using the following menu path:
Go to SETUP > TEST & BALANCE > DAMPER > DAMPER MAX OPENING = .%
Use the following menu path to modified the minimum damper positions for both high and low blower operations.
Go to SETUP > TEST & BALANCE > DAMPER > MIN DAMPER POSITION BLOWER ON HIGH = .%
Go to SETUP > TEST & BALANCE > DAMPER > MIN DAMPER POSITION BLOWER ON LOW = .%
1.10.4 Parameter Adjustments
Default indoor air quality economizer operation is based on common or average applications. Adjustments may be made to the indoor air quality parameters to alter operation or meet required specifications. Use the user interface to change Parameter 117 through 119. Go to SETTINGS > RTU OPTIONS > EDIT PARAMETER.
Select a demand control ventilation mode with Parameter 134. Modes 3 and 4 will bring on the unit blower when demand control ventilation calls for maximum damper open, and returns to auto-blower when demand control ventilation damper returns to 0. The other modes only operate when the unit blower is on, but will not bring it on themselves.
Some applications require a different carbon dioxide set point range than
default settings. Damper “start open” (Parameter 118 and “full open”
(Parameter 119) carbon dioxide set points may be adjusted from 0 to 2000 ppm.
Use the following formula to determine damper travel.
NOTE – When changing carbon dioxide set point range, “start open” set point should be less than “full-open” set point.
% Damper Travel = carbon dioxide ppm – Start Open ppm X
Full Open
Start Open
Max Open (Parameter 117) Full Open – Start Open
Example: An application requires the dampers open at 800 CO2 ppm and reach full open at 1200. If the carbon dioxide level in the space reads 1000 ppm, calculate the damper percent open as follows.
% Damper Travel = 1000 – 800 or 200 or .5 =0.5 x 100 = 50%

1.10.4.1. Set Point Control Option
Set point control mode is commonly used in areas with high occupancy and
frequent change out such as classrooms or conference rooms.
In applications requiring this on/off damper response to carbon dioxide
levels, set the start open (Parameter 118 – DCV DAMP START OPEN) set point
higher than the full open (Parameter 119 – DCV DAMP FULL OPEN) set point. The
dampers will drive to fully-open position immediately. FIGURE 17 shows the set
point control option.
IMPORTANT
Mixed air temperatures less than 45°F (7°C) on units with an aluminized heat
exchanger or less than 30°F (-1°C) on stainless steel heat exchangers will
void the manufacturer’s warranty.

Economizer Start-Up – M4 Unit Controller
The unit will be equipped with either an M2, M3, or M4 Unit Controller. M2,
M3, or M4 will be printed on the bottom of the Unit Controller near the SBUS
connector. Use the appropriate start-up section in this manual and refer to
the Unit Controller provided with the rooftop unit. Application manuals are
available for all Unit Controllers.
The economizer is controlled by the Unit Controller which is located on the
unit control panel. A detailed menu layout can be found in the Unit Controller
manual provided with each unit.
A-Field-Installed Economizer
The Unit Controller must be set to identify an economizer has been installed.
The configuration ID will also identify which sensor inputs the Unit
Controller will use to determine the free cooling mode. See FIGURE 13 for
sensor location.
1 – Use the Unit Controller mobile application to enter the following menu:
RTU MENU > SETUP INSTALL
2 – Navigate through various setup questions until CONFIGURATION ID 1 appears.
Change the second character in the configuration ID to identify the type of
input used to determine economizer free cooling setpoint. See TABLE 16.
3 – Continue through the setup until complete.
NOTE – Refer to the Setup Guide provided with the unit for Unit Controller
details.
B-Adjust Free Cooling Discharge Air Setpoint
When outdoor air is suitable for free cooling, dampers will modulate to
maintain a discharge air temperature of 55ºF default (adjustable range 45º-
67ºF). Refer to RT6 discharge air sensor location shown in FIGURE 13.
Page 22

· The setpoint requirement published by the California Energy Commission. See
Section 140.4 Prescriptive Requirements for Space Conditioning Systems of the
2013 Building Energy Efficiency Standards.
NOTE – Values in the referenced standard will supersede values listed in TABLE
3.
3 – When a network OAS signal is provided by a building control system, refer
to control system literature to adjust free cooling setpoint.
Enthalpy Setpoint
The enthalpy sensor (A7) provides a milliamp signal to the Unit Controller
based on outdoor air temperature and humidity. Use the following menu to
change the setpoint:
RTU MENU > SETTINGS RTU OPTIONS > DAMPER > ECONOMIZER ENTHALPY SETPOINT = 12.0
MA
Refer to TABLE 4. At 12.0mA, the Unit Controller will allow dampers to
modulate open at approximately 73°F. If the space temperature is too warm or
humid, change the ECONOIZER ENTHALPY SETPOINT to “13.6MA” and
the Unit Controller will allow dampers to modulate open at approximately 70°F.
Enthalpy Offset
The Unit Controller allows damper modulation when outdoor air is lower than
return air by a differential or offset temperature and humidity range. Use the
following menu to change the setpoint:
RTU MENU > SETTINGS RTU OPTIONS > DAMPER > ECONOMIZER ENTHALPY OFFSET = 1.0 MA
Refer to TABLE 5. At 1.0mA, the Unit Controller will allow dampers to modulate
open when outdoor air is lower than return air by approximately a 2°F offset.
If return air is 76°F, the Unit Controller will allow dampers to modulate open
at approximately 74°F. If the space temperature is to warm or humid, change
the ECONOMIZER ENTHALPY SETPOINT to 2.0mA or an offset of 3.5°F. The Unit
Controller will allow dampers to modulate open at approximately 72.5°F.
E-Damper Minimum Position Setting
Use the menu path in TABLE 17 to set the MIN DAMPER POSITION BLOWER ON HIGH
when outdoor air is not suitable for free cooling. The minimum setpoint range
