ENERGY MANAGEMENT INPUT (FRONT DESK CONTROL)
The controller can handle a switch signal from remote energy management input, called EM signal or front desk
control. Input must be 24VAC. If system receives a 24VAC signal, it will turn unit off; otherwise, the unit runs in
normal control. This function will be disabled under Freeze Guard protection. See Fig. 25 for terminal
connections.
INTELLIGENT SELF-CHECKING CONTROL
Your E-TAC has a computer board that continuously checks key components of the unit to ensure they are
operating properly. Under normal operation, unit status indicator (STATUS, on main PCB), light is steadily ON.
If there is a major problem, the unit will shut down and display a diagnostic failure code on the unit's display. If
it is only a minor failure and unit is correcting the fault by itself, the diagnostic code will be flashed on the status
LED that can easily be seen when the front panel is removed (see Fig. 24). Failure STATUS codes are defined
in the table below
Table 6 STATUS LED Indicator Definitions
