OPERATION  
OPTION SWITCHES  
The option switches on the 50A66-743 control are used  
to determine the length of the heat delay-to-fan-off period.  
The following table shows the time periods that will result  
from the various switch positions.  
satisfied, the gas valve is de-energized. After proof of  
flameloss, theinducerblowerremainsenergizedtopurge  
the system for 5 seconds and the delay-to-fan-off period  
begins. When the purge is complete, the inducer blower  
andhumidifierarede-energized.Afterthedelay-to-fan-off  
period ends, the circulator fan and electronic air cleaner  
are de-energized.  
OPTION SWITCH POSITIONS  
If flame is not detected, both valves are de-energized,  
the ignitor is turned off, and the 50A66 control goes into  
the “retry” sequence. The “retry” sequence provides a  
15-secondwaitfollowinganunsuccessfulignitionattempt  
(flame not detected).After this wait, the ignition sequence  
is restarted. If this ignition attempt is unsuccessful, three  
more retries will be made before the control goes into  
system lockout.

If flame is established for more than 10 seconds after  
ignition, the50A66controllerwillcleartheignitionattempt  
(or retry) counter. If flame is lost after 10 seconds, it will  
restart the ignition sequence.This can occur a maximum  
of four times before system lockout.  
HEAT MODE  
In a typical system, a call for heat is initiated by closing  
the thermostat contacts. This starts the 50A66 control’s  
heating sequence.The inducer blower and humidifier are  
energized. After a 15-second prepurge period, the 768A  
Silicon Nitride ignitor is powered.  
A momentary loss of gas supply, ame blowout, or a  
shorted or open condition in the flame probe circuit will be  
sensed within 2 seconds. The gas valve will de-energize  
andthecontrolwillrestarttheignitionsequence.Recycles  
will begin and the burner will operate normally if the gas  
supply returns, or the fault condition is corrected, before  
the last ignition attempt. Otherwise, the control will go  
into system lockout.  
This controller has an adaptive algorithm that reduces the  
ignitor temperature to slightly greater than the minimum  
temperature required to ignite gas in each particular  
application. The control measures the line voltage and  
determines an initial ignitor temperature setting based  
on the measurement. After each successful ignition, the  
control lowers the ignitor temperature slightly for the next  
ignition attempt.The control continues to lower the ignitor  
temperature until ignition does not occur, and the control  
goes into retry mode. For the second attempt to ignite  
gas within the same call for heat, the control increases  
the ignitor temperature to the value it was on the third  
previous successful ignition. After ignition is successful,  
the control sets the ignition temperature at this value for  
the next 255 calls for heat, after which the control repeats  
the adaptive algorithm. The control is constantly making  
adjustments to the ignitor temperature to compensate for  
changes in the line voltage.  
Ifthecontrolhasgoneintosystemlockout,itmaybepossi-  
ble to reset the control by a momentary power interruption  
of ten seconds or longer. Refer to PRECAUTIONARY,  
SYSTEM LOCKOUT, AND DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES.  
COOL MODE  
In a typical system, a call for cool is initiated by closing  
the thermostat contacts. This starts the 50A66 control’s  
cooling sequence. The compressor is energized and the  
delay-to-fan-on period begins. After the delay-to-fan-on  
period ends, the circulator fan is energized at cool speed.  
Theelectronicaircleaner(optional)isalsoenergized.After  
thethermostatissatisfied,thecompressorisde-energized  
and the delay-to-fan-off period begins. After the delay-to-  
fan-off period ends, the circulator fan and electronic air  
cleaner are de-energized.  
The 80 VAC Silicon Nitride ignitor manufactured by  
White-Rodgersmustbeused.Theseignitorsarespecial-  
ly designed to operate with the 50A66’s adaptive ignition  
routine to ensure the most efficient ignitor temperature.  
At the end of the ignitor warm-up time, both valves in  
the 36E manifold gas valve are opened. Flame must be  
detected within 4 seconds.  
MANUAL FAN ON MODE  
If the thermostat fan switch is moved to the ON position,  
the circulator fan (heat speed) and optional electronic air  
cleaner are energized. When the fan switch is returned  
to the AUTO position, the circulator fan and electronic air  
cleaner (optional) are de-energized.  
If flame is detected, the delay-to-fan-on period begins.  
After the delay-to-fan-on period ends, the circulator fan is  
energized at heat speed. If there is an optional electronic  
air cleaner on the system, the electronic air cleaner and  
the humidifier are energized. When the thermostat is

rollout sensor switch.  
Whensystemlockoutoccurs,thegasvalveisde-energized.  
The circulator blower may be energized at heat speed for  
some faults, and if flame is sensed, the inducer blower is  
energized.The diagnostic indicator light will flash or glow  
continuously to indicate system status. (System lockout  
will never override the precautionary features.)

DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES  
To reset the control after system lockout, do one of  
The 50A66-743 control continuously monitors its own  
operation and the operation of the system. If a failure oc-  
curs, the DS 1 (red) and DS 2 (green) LEDs will indicate  
a failure code as shown below.  
the following:  
1. Interrupt the call for heat at the thermostat for at least  
one second, but for less than 20 seconds (if flame is  
sensedwiththegasvalvede-energized,interruptingthe  
call for heat at the thermostat will not reset the control).

Failure to sense flame is often caused by carbon deposits on  
the flame sensor, a disconnected or shorted flame sensor  
lead or a poorly grounded furnace. Carbon deposits can be  
cleaned with emery cloth. Verify sensor is not contacting the  
burner and is located in a good position to sense flame.  
Ignitor must be positioned to light the gas immediately when  
the valve opens. If the ignitor has been replaced, verify hot  
spot position has not changed.
