SYSTEM OPERATION
3.1 On a demand for cooling, the room thermostat
energizes “G” and “Y1” and 24Vac is supplied to “G” and
“Ylow/Y1” of the MBE unit. The VSTB inside the MBE will
turn on the blower motor and the motor will ramp up to
60% of the speed programmed in the motor based on the
settings for dip switch 5 and 6. The VSTB will supply 24Vac
to “Y” at the heat pump and the compressor and outdoor
fan starts in low speed operation.

4.0 Heating Operation
On heat pump units, when the room thermostat is set to
the heating mode, the reversing valve is not energized.
As long as the thermostat is set for heating, the reversing
valve will be in the de-energized position for heating except
during a defrost cycle. Some installations may use one or
more outdoor thermostats to restrict the amount of electric
heat that is available above a preset ambient temperature.
Use of optional controls such as these can change
the operation of the electric heaters during the heating
mode. This sequence of operation does not cover those
applications.

4.3 If the heat pump operation cannot satisfy the demand,
the room thermostat energizes “W2/W3” and 24Vac is

HR1 on the electric heater assembly.
4.4 HR1 contacts M1 and M2 will close within 10 to 20
seconds and turn on heater element #1. At the same time,
if the heater assembly contains a second heater element,
HR1 will contain a second set of contacts, M3and M4,
which will close and turn on heater element #2.
