Start up - Heat Mode
When the thermostat is set above the ambient temperature,
120 VAC are supplied to the L1 terminal. When this occurs the con-
trol will power up and perform a self-check routine and begin a pre-
purge*, if selected. Following the pre-purge, the gas valve is ener-
gized and sparks commence until flame is detected
or the Trial For Ignition (TFI) period expires.
When flame is detected, the spark is shut off and the gas valve
remains energized. The thermostat and burner flame are
constantly monitored to ensure that the system is functioning prop-
erly. When the thermostat is satisfied and the demand for heat
ends, the gas valve is de-energized immediately and the flame is
extinguished.
System Response to Flame Failures
The robust design of our gas ignition controls is demonstrated
by their ability to respond to flame failures in a safe manner
and provide re-ignition options for the equipment designer.
Flame Failure During
Trial-for-Ignition Period
SINGLE TRIAL MODEL
Should the burner fail to light or flame is not detected
at the end of the trial-for-ignition period, the gas valve is
de-energized immediately and the control will go into
lockout mode.
MULTI TRIAL MODEL
Should the burner fail to light or flame is not detected
during the first trial for ignition period, the gas valve is
de-energized and the control starts the inter-purge
sequence before another ignition attempt. After inter-purge,
the control will attempt two additional ignition trials.
If these attempts are unsuccessful the control will go into
lockout mode.
Flame Failure of Established Flame
RE-IGNITION
If the established flame signal is lost while the burner is
operating, the control responds and begins sparking within
0.8 seconds. The spark will be energized for the duration
of the trial-for-ignition period in an attempt to re-light the
burner. If flame is re-established, normal operation resumes.
SINGLE TRIAL MODEL
If the burner does not light after the first attempt, the
control will de-energize the gas valve and go into lockout
mode. See Lockout Recovery
MULTI TRIAL MODEL
If the burner does not light after the first attempt,
the inter-purge sequence is completed between attempts
to re-light the burner. If the burner fails to light after the
third try, the control will de-energize the gas valve and go
into lockout mode. See Lockout Recovery
Lockout Mode (On-Board Safety System)
After single or multiple attempts to light the burner have failed or
flame is not established, the control automatically enters lockout
mode. The control will not open the gas valve unless there is
intervention by the user. See Lockout Recovery.
Lockout Recovery
For lockout recovery, reset the thermostat below ambient tempera-
ture or remove the 120 VAC power supply for 5 seconds.

* The pre-purge is simply a delay to allow gas to dissipate from the
combustion chamber. This control is not equipped with a combustion blow-
er relay and therefore does not initiate a fan powered pre-purge.
