The conditions needed for the unit to enter test mode
are as follows: POT must start at a time less than or
equal to the 40 second mark. The POT must then be
rapidly rotated to a position greater than or equal to
the 280 second mark in less than ¼ second. Normal
operation will resume after power is reset or after the
unit has been in test mode for at least 5 minutes.
Brownout Protection with Adjustment
Brownout protection may be necessary if the utility
power or generator power has inadequate power to
prevent the voltage from dropping when the compressor
starts. This is rare but can happen if the generator
is undersized at the site or if the site is in a remote
location far from the main power grid. Under normal
circumstances, allowing the brownout to be ignored for
a time period should not be needed. The 8201-164 is
shipped with all the DIP switches in the 'off' or 'do not
ignore' position (see Figure 27).
If ignoring the brownout is needed because of the
above conditions, three preset timers can be set by DIP
switches in order to delay signaling a power brownout
for a specific length of time after compressor contactor
is energized. This allows the compressor a time period
to start even if the voltage has dropped and allows the
voltage to recover. This delay only happens when the
CC terminal energizes. The delay can be set to 500
milliseconds (A DIP switch), 1000 milliseconds (B DIP
switch) or 1500 milliseconds (C DIP switch); time is
not cumulative—only the longest setting will apply. If
the voltage recovers during the brownout time period,
the compressor will start.
If a brownout condition is detected by the 8201-164,
the troubleshooting light will flash blue. The light will
continue to flash until the cooling call is satisfied or
power is removed from the Y terminal. This condition
does not prevent operation, it only indicates that a
brownout condition was present at some point during
the cooling call. If a brownout condition is detected,
CC will be de-energized and will retry after the delay-
on-make timer is satisfied; this process will continue
until call is satisfied.
If user chooses the 'do not ignore' position when the
site has inadequate utility or generator power, this
could lead to the compressor never starting. The
control will see the brownout immediately and not start.
A common scenario and one that has been seen in the
field is when a unit or units switches from utility power
to generator power. With slower transfer switches, the
time delay between the utility power and generator
power didn't cause a problem. The units lost power,
shut off and came back on line normally. With the
introduction of almost instantaneous transfer switches,
the millisecond long power glitch can be enough that
the compressor will start to run backwards. In this
scenario, the CCM will catch this and restart the units
normally.

Pressure Service Ports

High and low pressure service ports are installed on
all units so that the system operating pressures can be
observed. A pressure table covering all models can be
found on page 20. It is imperative to match the correct
pressure table to the unit by model number.
This unit employs high-flow Coremax valves instead of
the typical Schrader type valves.
WARNING! Do NOT use a Schrader valve core removal
tool with these valves. Use of such a tool could result
in eye injuries or refrigerant burns!
To change a Coremax valve without first removing the
refrigerant, a special tool is required which can be
obtained at www.fastestinc.com/en/SCCA07H. See the
replacement parts manual for replacement core part
numbers.

Outdoor Fan Motor

Due to design considerations of the condenser section
of the wall-mount unit, placement/clearance of the
motor/fan blade is critical to heat dispersal. Should a
change of motor or fan blade be necessary, please view
Figure 28 for proper clearance adjustment.
