EVENT ACTION
Check thermostat inputs for simultaneous heat and cooling wiring. Once condition is
corrected, unit controller will resume operation after error time off day has expired.
UNIT (equipment type) DIP switch has changed while unit is energized. Check UNIT DIP
switch setting and reset control. Make sure the UNIT DIP switch settings agree with the
unit type.
This may indicate a problem with the ECTO chip.
No address is set on unit address DIP switch SW3. Any one switch on SW3 must be in ON
position. SW3 is factory set with switch #2 in on position.

While running in backup mode the unit controller will set this alarm. The unit controller
will return from Backup mode to Primary (Main) mode on a reset or after the Primary
mode (room Sensor is not in error or OR network communication is re-established
and available for 300 seconds.
•
Backup mode alarm will be cleared on the reset OR after the unit controller has
returned to primary (main) system mode.
Ensure that the heating and cooling set points honor the auto-changeover deadband.
ECTO parameter has been changed by the CORE Service application,
Four stage interface failure A138. ECTO 6.01 set to option 12 when no A138 board
present can also cause this alarm.
Four stage interface A138 detected but ECTO 6.01 is not set to option 12 or equipment
type is set to heat pump.
ECTO memory chip write error.
Check sensor and wiring. This alarm activates when the A24 sensor input signal is
continuously above 25% of sensor measuring range for more than five minutes with
blower stopped. The CORE Unit Controller will disable the Outdoor Air CFM control. The
alarm automatically clears when the sensor reading is below 10% sensor measuring range
for one minute.
