Rapid Shutdown 
A rapid shutdown requires the compressor to stop and the circuit to go to the Off state 
immediately. 
The circuit will do a rapid shutdown if either of these conditions occurs at any time: 
•  Unit State is Off 
•  A rapid stop alarm occurs on the circuit 
Circuit Status 
The displayed circuit status is determined by the conditions in the following table: 
Enum Status  Conditions 
0  Off:Ready  Circuit is ready to start when needed. 
1  Off:Stage Up Delay  Circuit is off and cannot start due to stage up delay. 
2  Off:Cycle Timer  Circuit is off and cannot start due to active cycle timer. 
3  Off:Keypad Disable  Circuit is off and cannot start due to keypad disable. 
4  Off:Circuit Switch  Circuit is off and circuit switch is off. 
5  Off:Refr In Oil Sump 
Circuit is off and Discharge Temperature – Oil 
Saturated Temperature at gas pressure <= 5°C 
6  Off:Alarm  Circuit is off and cannot start due to active circuit alarm. 
7  Off:Test Mode  Circuit is in test mode. 
8  EXV Preopen  Circuit is in preopen state. 
9  Run:Pumpdown  Circuit is in pumpdown state. 
10  Run:Normal  Circuit is in run state and running normally. 
11  Run:Disc SH Low 
Circuit is running and cannot load due to low discharge 
superheat. 
12  Run:Evap Press Low 
Circuit is running and cannot load due to low evaporator 
pressure. 
13  Run:Cond Press High 
Circuit is running and cannot load due to high 
condenser pressure. 
Compressor Control 
The compressor will run only when the circuit is in a run or pumpdown state. This 
means the compressor should not be running any time the circuit is off or during 
preopening the EXV. 
Cycle Timers 
A minimum time between starts of the compressor and a minimum time between 
shutdown and start of the compressor will be enforced. The time values are set by 
global circuit set points. 
These cycle timers are enforced even through cycling of power to the chiller. 
These timers may be cleared via a setting on the controller. 
Compressor Run Timer 
When a compressor starts, a timer will start and run as long as the compressor runs. 
This timer is used in the alarm log. 
Compressor Capacity Control 
After starting, the compressor will be unloaded to the minimum physical capacity and 
no attempt to increase compressor capacity is made until the differential between 
evaporator pressure and oil pressure meets a minimum value. 
After the minimum differential pressure is met, compressor capacity is controlled to 
25%. 
Compressor capacity will always be limited to a minimum of 25% while it is running, 
except for the time after compressor start when the differential pressure is being built 
and except when changes to capacity are performed as needed to meet unit capacity 
requirements (see unit capacity control section).
