ler or outdoor unit)
outdoor sensor.
In normal operation after control recognizes sensors, the alarm will be sent if valid temper
ature reading is lost. Compare outdoor sensor resistance to temperature/resistance charts
in unit installation instructions. Replace sensor pack if necessary. At the beginning of (any)
configuration, furnace or airhandler control will detect the presence of the sensor(s). If
detected (reading in range), appropriate feature will be set as 'installed' and shown in the
