FL Fault history (pushbutton status menu)

Menu / mode display R96V/96MDV

What the display is showing

First category of the pushbutton status menu: up to six stored faults from the last 168 powered hours play back newest first. The right digit flashes its top and bottom bars before and after the list.

Applies to: (-)96VA040-115 (R96V / U96V) and (-)(-)96MDV040-115 two-stage variable-speed communicating furnaces

What to do

  1. Press the pushbutton for under 2 seconds; FL shows, then the stored codes one after another.
  2. Hold the button 5 seconds or more while FL is active to wipe the history (bars flash three times to confirm).
  3. Press again (under 2 s) to move to the next category; the menu closes after 60 seconds without a press.
