UltraTech second stage compressor solenoid. This
solenoid is internal to the compressor, and has
a voltage range of 18 to 28VDC. Please refer to
bulletin AE-1311 for information on the Copeland

OPERATION
Compressor Protection
The CoreSense Diagnostics module utilizes proprietary
algorithms to protect the compressor and system from
repeated trips of system pressure controls and the
compressor internal overload. The protection terminal
of the module should be wired in series with the system
low pressure and high pressure cutouts, as well as
the compressor contactor. When the module detects
a series of trips as described below, it will activate a
lockout feature that opens the solid state switch in the
module, thereby cutting power to the contactor and de-
energizing the compressor.
Module LED Description
POWER LED (Green): indicates the module is
powered with 18 to 28 volts.
ALERT LED (Yellow): communicates an abnormal
system condition through a unique flash code. The
ALERT LED will flash a number of times consecutively,
pause and then repeat the process. The number of
consecutive flashes, defined as the Flash Code,
correlates to a particular abnormal condition. Detailed
descriptions of specific ALERT Flash Codes are
shown in Table 1.
TRIP/LOCK LED (Red): indicates either a TRIP or
LOCK condition.
• TRIP: is indicated by a solid illumination of the
LED. This means the compressor is not running
and demand is present at the module.
• LOCK: is indicated by a flashing LED correlating to
a LOCK condition in which the module will prevent
the compressor from starting.
Module Operation/Code Description
Code 1 – Long Run Time
The module will flash yellow one time when the
compressor operates for longer than 18 continuous
hours. This is an alert code only, and the module will
not lockout the compressor for this condition. This
code is inactive for heat-pumps.

Code 2 – Compressor (Pressure) Trips
The module will flash yellow two times when the
compressor operates from 12 seconds to 15 minutes
followed by a trip condition lasting longer than 7
minutes. When four consecutive or ten total Code
2 events are recorded, the module will lockout the
compressor and flash red two times.
Code 3 – Pressure Switch Cycling
The module will flash yellow three times when the
compressor operates from 12 seconds to 15 minutes
followed by a trip condition lasting between 35
seconds to 7 minutes. When four consecutive or ten
total Code 3 events are recorded, the module will
lockout the compressor and flash red three times.
Code 4 – Locked Rotor Trip
The module will flash yellow four times when the
compressor trips within 12 seconds of operation and
does not reset and start within 35 seconds. When ten
consecutive Code 4 events are recorded the module
will lockout the compressor and flash red four times.
Code 5 – Compressor (Moderate Run) Trip
The module will flash yellow five times when the
compressor has operated between 15 minutes and
18 hours, followed by a compressor trip lasting longer
than 7 minutes. When four consecutive or ten total
Code 5 events are recorded, the module will lockout
the compressor and flash red five times.
Code 6 – Open Start Circuit
The module will lockout the compressor and flash
red six times if the module detects a demand signal
in the "Y" terminal and current in the "R" winding of
the compressor, but no current is detected in the "S"
winding of the compressor for 2 seconds.
Code 7 – Open Run Circuit
The module will lockout the compressor and flash red
seven times if the module detects a demand signal
in the "Y" terminal and current in the "S" winding of
the compressor, but no current is detected in the "R"
winding of the compressor for 2 seconds.
Code 8 – Welded Contactor
The module will flash yellow eight times if it has
detected line currents in the "S" and "R" windings and
demand is absent for 15 seconds.
