Fault code C2FLSACT 0 Min What does this mean?

The fault code "C2FLSACT 0 Min" for AAON RSMD indicates a failure related to Compressor 2 (C2), specifically a low suction pressure condition. The "FLSACT" refers to a low suction pressure fault, and "0 Min" likely refers to the duration or time since the fault occurred or was detected. This fault occurs if Suction Pressure 2 stays below the low suction pressure setpoint for one minute or falls below 40 psi for five seconds.
