3.6.8 DataCORDER Power-Up
The DataCORDER may be powered up in any one of
four ways:
1. Normal AC power: The DataCORDER is powered
up when the unit is turned on via the stop-start switch.
2. Controller DC battery pack power: If a battery pack DataReader
is installed, the DataCORDER will power up for
communication when an interrogation cable is plugged
into an interrogation receptacle.
3. External DC battery pack power: A 12 volt battery
pack may also be plugged into the back of the
interrogation cable, which is then plugged into an
interrogation port. No controller battery pack is required
with this method.
4. Real Time Clock demand: If the DataCORDER is

NOTE
Function codes Cd27 through Cd37 are user-selectable functions. The operator can change the value of
these functions to meet the operational needs of the container.
There are two modes for defrost initiation, either user--selected timed intervals or
automatic control. The user--selected values are (OFF), 3, 6, 9, 12, or 24 hours
while the factory default is 12 hours. Automatic defrost starts with an initial de-
frost at 3 hours and then adjusts the interval to the next defrost based on the ac-
cumulation of ice on the evaporator coil. Following a start--up or after termination
of a defrost, the time will not begin counting down until the defrost temperature
sensor (DTS) reading falls below set point. If the reading of DTS rises above set
point any time during the timer count down, the interval is reset and the count-
down begins over. If DTS fails, alarm code AL60 is activated and control switches

(Hours or Automatic) ner as with the DTS except the return temperature sensor reading will be used.
Defrost Interval Timer Value (Configuration variable CnF23): If the software is
configured to “SAv” (save) for this option, then the value of the defrost interval
timer will be saved at power down and restored at power up. This option prevents
short power interruptions from resetting an almost expired defrost interval, and
possibly delaying a needed defrost cycle.
NOTE
The defrost interval timer counts only during compressor run time.
This code determines the temperature units (_C or _F) which will be used for all
temperature displays. The user selects _C or _F by selecting function code Cd28
and pushing the ENTER key. The factory default value is Celsius units.

This function code will display “--- --- --- --- ---“ if Configuration Variable CnF34 is

If all of the control sensors are out of range (alarm code AL26) or there is a probe
circuit calibration failure (alarm code AL27), the unit will enter the shutdown state
defined by this setting. The user selects one of four possible actions as follows:
A -- Full Cooling (Compressor is on, economized operation. SMV subject to pressure

and current limit.)
C -- Evaporator Fan Only (Evaporator fans on high speed, not applicable with frozen

The in-range tolerance will determine the band of temperatures around the set
point which will be designated as in-range. If the control temperature is in-range,
the in-range light will be illuminated. There are four possible values:

The Controller has a built-in Analog to Digital (A-D) converter, used to convert
A/D Accuracy Fail- analog readings (i.e. temperature sensors, current sensors, etc.) to digital read-
AL27 ings. The Controller continuously performs calibration tests on the A-D converter.

If the A-D converter fails to calibrate for 30 consecutive seconds, this alarm is
activated.This alarm will be inactivated as soon as the A-D converter calibrates.
Alarm 28 is triggered if suction pressure is below 2 psia and alarm 66 (Suction
Pressure Transducer Failure) is not active. This alarm will be inactivated when
AL28 Low Suction Pres- suction pressure rises above 2 psia for three continuous minutes. This alarm
sure triggers failure action C (evaporator fan only) or D (all machinery off) as deter-
mined by User Selectable Failure Response if the unit has a perishable set point;
Failure action D (all machinery off) if the unit has a frozen set point. Reset SMV.
Alarm 50 is activated whenever the sensor is outside the valid range. There is a
5 minute adjustment period where the user can change the vent position without
AL50 Fresh Air Position generating an alarm event. The sensor requires 5 minutes of no movement to
Sensor (VPS) confirm stability. If the vent position changes at any point beyond the 5 minute
adjustment period, the sensor will generate an alarm event. The alarm is trig-
gered off when the unit power cycles and the sensor is within valid range.
During start-up diagnostics, the EEPROM is examined to determine validity of its
contents. This is done by testing the set point and the alarm list. If the contents
are invalid, Alarm 51 is activated. During control processing, any operation in-
volving alarm list activity that results in an error will cause Alarm 51 to be acti-
AL51 Alarm List Failure vated. Alarm 51 is a “display only” alarm and is not written into the alarm list.
Pressing the ENTER key when “CLEAr” is displayed will result in an attempt to

will be reset.
Alarm 52 is activated whenever the alarm list is determined to be full; at start-up
AL52 Alarm List Full or after recording an alarm in the list. Alarm 52 is displayed, but is not recorded in
the alarm list. This alarm can be reset by clearing the alarm list. This can be done
only if all alarms written in the list are inactive.
Alarm 53 is caused by the battery pack charge being too low to provide sufficient
AL53 Battery Pack Failure power for battery-backed recording. If this alarm occurs on start up, allow a unit
fitted with rechargeable batteries to operate for up to 24 hours to charge re-
chargeable batteries sufficiently to deactivate the alarm
Alarm 54 is activated by an invalid primary supply temperature sensor reading
that is sensed outside the range of --50 to +70_C (--58_F to +158_F) or if the
probe check logic has determined there is a fault with this sensor. If Alarm 54 is
activated and the primary supply is the control sensor, the secondary supply sen-

Alarm 58 is triggered when the compressor high discharge pressure safety switch
AL58 Compressor High remains open for at least one minute. This alarm will remain active until the pres-
Pressure Safety sure switch resets, at which time the compressor will restart.
Alarm 60 is an indication of a probable failure of the defrost temperature sensor
(DTS). It is triggered by the opening of the heat termination thermostat (HTT) or
the failure of the DTS to go above set point within two hours of defrost initiation.
Defrost Temperature After one-half hour with a frozen range set point, or one-half hour of continuous
AL60 compressor run time, if the return air falls below 7_C (45_F), the Controller

checks to ensure the DTS reading has dropped to 10_C or below. If not, a DTS
failure alarm is given and the defrost mode is operated using the return tempera-
ture sensor. The defrost mode will be terminated after one hour by the Controller.
Alarm 61 is triggered by detection of improper amperage resulting from heater
AL61 Heaters Failure activation or deactivation. Each phase of the power source is checked for proper
amperage.This alarm is a display alarm with no resulting failure action, and will
be reset by a proper amp draw of the heater.
Alarm 62 is triggered by improper current draw increase (or decrease) resulting
from compressor turn on (or off). The compressor is expected to draw a mini-
AL62 Compressor Circuit mum of 2 amps; failure to do so will activate the alarm. This is a display alarm
