What To Do After Adding Options or Equipment to the Unit

Restoring the BCI-R controller to factory defaults is necessary if the unit setup has changed after
the initial self-configuration process. This process is called "clearing the controller" .
For example, an economizer is added to the machine after the initial installation. In order for the
BCI-R controller to recognize the economizer, it must be restored to factory defaults.
The BCI-R controller self-configures upon initial power-up to match the connected equipment type.
This configuration is then permanently stored in the memory of the controller. Through this
process, the controller generates the correct list of BACnet points.
