Setup Operation
The Setup Operation menu permits the review and/or adjustment of the unit configuration. This may
include:
Cold Start—This feature, also referred to as Positive Start or Winter Start Kit, allows for the low
pressure switch to be ignored for the programmed time during a cold start of the compressor. Enter-
ing a "0" for this time will bypass this feature. A "1" will bypass the low pressure switch for one
minute, a "2" for 2 minutes, etc. The programmed value can be from 0 to 3 minutes. This delay is fac-
tory set to 0 for water cooled, glycol cooled, and GLYCOOL units. Typically, only air cooled units need
a "Winter Start" delay time.
Restart—This feature allows for the unit to restart automatically after a loss of power. The pro-
grammed value is in 0.1 minute (6 seconds) intervals. A programmed value of zero (0) would require
the user to manually press the ON/OFF key to start the unit, i.e. no auto restart. The purpose of this
feature is to prevent several units from starting at the same time after a loss of power. The message
"Restart Delay -- Please Wait" will be displayed when the system is in the auto restart mode. Liebert
suggests programming multiple unit installations with different auto restart times.
IR Fill Rate (infrared humidifiers only)—An autoflush system automatically controls a water
makeup valve to maintain the proper level in the infrared humidifier water pan during humidifier
operation. If humidification is needed and 15 hours have elapsed since the last time the humidifier
was on, the humidifier is held off until the valve completes an initial fill of the humidifier pan. This
pre-fill is about 30 seconds. The valve continues to fill and flush the pan for about 4 minutes.
During humidifier operation, with the flush rate set at the default of 150%, the valve is opened peri-
odically to add water to the pan (about 40 seconds for every 9-1/2 minutes of humidifier operation).
This adds enough water to the pan to cause about a third of the total water used to be flushed out the
overflow standpipe located in the humidifier pan. This flushing action helps remove solids from the
pan. The flush rate is adjustable from 110% to 500%. If the water quality is poor, it may be desirable
to increase the water flushing action above the normal 150% rate. Also, if the supply water pressure
is low, the flush rate adjustment can be increased so that sufficient water level is maintained during
humidification.
Chilled Water/Hot Water/Econ-O-Coil Flush—This feature will flush the respective coil for
3 minutes after the programmed number of hours of non-use. For example, if the flush time is pro-
grammed with 24 hours on a hot water reheat type system and heating is not required for a 24 hour
period, the hot water valve will be open for 3 minutes to allow the coil to be flushed. The programmed
value can be from 0 (no flush) to 99 (99 hours of non-use).
C/F Degrees—The control can be selected to show readings and setpoints in either degrees Fahren-
heit (F) or Celsius (C).
