WARNING

A fume hood is a safety device.

Anyone attempting to start up a Fume Hood Controller and its related equipment

must have completed Operations Training.

WARNING

DO NOT connect to the USB port of the SOAM while the fume hood is in

operation.

drawings. This should include any components working in conjunction with the

Sash Open Area Module (SOAM).

instructions.

Verifying Power

Verify that the controller has 24 Vac power and that the fuse has been

inserted into the trunk or that power to the transformer is ON.

Verify the RUN LED is green.

then the LED is solid green when not communicating and flashing 80-20

when communicating.
