Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 5 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Elite is a user friendly, easy to operate, programmable temperature control.
Press the ON/OFF button once to engage the system. The Display indicates room temperature when the
system is on and the Display is blank when the system is off.
Press and release the Mode Button until the desired Mode LED is illuminated.
Set the desired room temperature by pressing the up or down button. The set point can be viewed by
momentarily pressing and releasing the Up or Down Button.
Fan speed operation is automatic allowing fan speed to decrease as room temperature is approached in the
cool mode. The fan will operate at low speed when set point is satisfied. Manual fan speeds can be selected
by pressing and releasing the fan button to select the desired manual fan speed. The fan will operate at the
speed selected and will not change speeds with room temperature.
The fan can be programmed to cycle on and off with demand, allowing the fan to run only when cooling or
heating is required. Normally the automatic fan speed operation is reversed in the heating mode, however,
the fan can be programmed to operate the same as in the cooling mode.
Memory: Elite has nonvolatile memory which requires no batteries or any form of backup power. When
power is lost the operating parameters are retained indefinitely. When power is restored, the unit resumes
operating as last programmed.
! IMPORTANT NOTE TO END USER:
If your A/C unit is a 24,000 BTU model, or if it has a High Velocity blower, then you MUST reprogram
parameter P-14 prior to operating equipment. A 24K unit is identifiable by the 24 in the model number
(i.e., VCD24K). A High Velocity blower does not have a blower motor overhang, the motor is inside the
blower, and there is an HV in the model number. See the Programming section P-14 for instructions.
NORMAL HEATING OR COOLING CYCLE
Select Cool only and cooling only will be supplied. The cabin temperature will be maintained within 2 F/
3.6 C of the set point. Select Heat only and only heating will be supplied. The cabin temperature will be
maintained within 2 F/3.6 C of the set point.
Select Automatic and both heating and cooling will be supplied as required. While in the Automatic Mode,
Elite will maintain a 2 F/3.6 C temperature variation. A 4 F/7.2 C swing is required to cause the unit to
shift to the opposite mode. Once in a given mode, heating or cooling, Elite will maintain a 2 F/3.6 C
differential.
When the Heating or Cooling demand is satisfied, the compressor cycles off and the Automatic Fan returns
to low speed. The fan speed will remain constant if Manual Fan Speed has been programmed.
! IMPORTANT NOTE TO END USER:
If your A/C unit is Cool Only - if it does not have a reversing valve - then Cool Only Mode MUST be selected.
DO NOT set to Automatic Mode for a Cool Only unit. If Automatic Mode is selected and the thermostat
calls for heat, the compressor will run. Since there is no reversing valve, the A/C will supply cool air when
heating is desired. Cool Only units do not heat.
Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 6 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
REVERSING VALVE OPERATION
The reversing valve is toggled to the opposite mode when heating or cooling is required to reduce the
compressor starting surge. The valve will only toggle to the opposite mode when a cooling or heating cycle
is called for and if the system has been off for less than seventy-five (75) seconds. The valve will also toggle
if a cycle is interrupted from the display panel by pressing the power button ON/OFF, or changing the set
point. Unnecessary valve toggling has been limited to reduce reversing valve noise. Valve toggling can be
totally eliminated by programming the minimum compressor staging delay at seventy-five seconds (75) or
greater.
Power on reset, which occurs when the system is powered up, will always initiate a valve toggle.
BASIC OPERATION
ON/OFF BUTTON The power button is used to toggle between the on and off modes. Press the ON/OFF
button once to toggle the unit to the on mode.

MODES OF OPERATION
Off Mode
When the Elite is in the off mode, all control outputs are turned off. Program parameters and user settings
are saved in nonvolatile memory. The program mode can only be accessed from the off mode.
On Mode
When the control is in the on mode, power will be supplied to the appropriate control outputs and the display
will indicate the current state of operation. The operating and program parameters resume based on those
stored the last time the unit was operating.
Cool Only Mode
When the Cool LED is lit, only the cooling systems are selected and operated as required. When the
temperature drops below the set point, the system will not automatically switch to the heating mode.
! IMPORTANT NOTE TO END USER:
If your A/C unit is Cool Only - if it does not have a reversing valve - then Cool Only Mode MUST be selected.
DO NOT set to Automatic Mode for a Cool Only unit. If Automatic Mode is selected and the thermostat
calls for heat, the compressor will run. Since there is no reversing valve, the A/C will supply cool air when
heating is desired. Cool Only units do not heat.
Heating Only Mode
When the Heat LED is on, only the heating systems are selected and operated as required. Should the
temperature rise above the set point, the system will not automatically switch to the cooling mode.
Automatic Mode
When the Automatic LED is on, both heating and cooling is supplied as required. The heat or cool LEDs
will be lit when the unit is heating or cooling.
Temperature in a given mode will be maintained within 2 F/3.6 C, however, a 4 F/7.2 C difference is
required to allow the control to change modes. Once in a new mode, the temperature will remain within
2 F/3.6 C of the set point.
Do not select Automatic Mode if A/C unit is Cool Only (see above).
Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 9 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
Moisture Mode
While in the on mode, press the Mode Button until the Moisture Mode LED is illuminated. Every four (4)
hours, the fan is started and air circulated for thirty (30) minutes. During this time the air temperature is
sampled and entered into memory. The cooling cycle is started and continues until the temperature is lowered
2 F/3.6 C. The compressor is allowed a maximum of one hour running time to reach the desired
temperature. Four (4) hours after the temperature is satisfied, or the compressor times out, the cycle will be
repeated.
FAN MODES
Automatic Fan Speeds
Elite has three automatic fan speeds available: High, medium and low. Automatic fan
mode allows the Elite to determine the required fan speed based on temperature
differential. This permits a balance between the most efficient temperature control and
slower, quieter fan speeds.
Manual Fan Mode
There are three fan speeds available: low, medium and high. Manual fan mode allows the user to select and
maintain the desired fan speed manually. When a manual fan speed has been selected, the speed is indicated
by one of the 3 LEDs above the AUTO fan LED. The top LED respresents the fastest speed.
Fan Only Mode
The fan only can be operated for air circulation when no cooling or heating is desired. From the Off Mode
press and release the fan button to start fan speed one. Press and release again to select speed two. Press and
release a third time for speed three. Press and release a fourth time to turn off the fan. Starting a cycle will
revert the fan to the automatic mode or the last selected manual fan setting.
Cycle Fan With Compressor
Press and hold the fan button for 5 seconds. The mnemonic cyc followed by con will appear in the
display. Release the button with cyc in the window and the fan will cycle on and off with the compressor.
Release the button with con in the window and the fan will run whenever the system is on.
PROGRAM MODE
The program mode is used to adjust the systems operating parameters to suit the particular needs of individual
users. The program mode is also used to tailor the air-conditioning system for the most efficient operation
within an installation. Installation variables such as, ducting, sensor location and system layout affect the
perceived operation of the overall system. Elite is shipped with factory programmable default settings which
are stored in memory and can be recalled. However, reprogrammed settings can be saved as the new default,
thus overwriting the factory defaults (see programmable parameter P-15).
Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 10 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
ENTERING PROGRAM MODE
The program mode can only be entered from the Off Mode. From the Off Mode and in the following order,
press the Mode, Up, Down and the Mode buttons. These buttons have to be pressed and released in the order
given. The numerals 85 which represent the high fan limit, appears in the display. The 85 is followed
by the characters P 1 followed again by the parameter setting 85. P 1 represents the first programmable
parameter. The Elite control is now in the program mode. Exit the program mode, to the off mode, by
pressing and releasing the power button.
Restore Default Settings
IMPORTANT ! The default settings can be restored by entering the program mode and setting P-15 to rSt.
Exit the program mode and the software version number appears in the display. The default settings are
restored and the Elite control returns to the off mode. The software version number is always displayed when
you exit the program mode.
USING THE PROGRAM MODE
Increment from one parameter to the next by pressing and releasing the Mode Button while in the program
mode. Decrement from one program parameter to the previous one by pressing the Fan Button. Use the
up and down buttons to change the program parameter values. The programmable parameters range
from P-1 through P-15.
Up and Down Buttons
The up and down buttons are used to select the data or set the desired limits for the parameter being
programmed. This method is followed throughout the program mode, however, special instructions are
included for individual functions as require them.
Exiting the Program Mode
There are two methods to exit the program mode. Press the power button and the Elite control will return
to the off mode. Not pressing any buttons or attempting any program changes for fifty (50) seconds will
allow the control to exit the program mode to the off mode. Any programming changes that were made
while in the program mode will be memorized, set as the new default, and put into operation when the
program mode is exited and the control is returned to the on mode.
Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 11 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
PROGRAMMABLE PARAMETERS
There are fourteen (14) programmable parameters with their Factory Default Settings listed in this section.
The table below indicates what these parameters are, along with the permitted values and the original Factory
Default Settings.
P-1: High Fan Limit
The upper fan speed limit can be adjusted for various motors. The high fan limit is adjusted with the system
installed and operating. The values range from 56 through 95 arbitrary units. Set a higher number for a higher
fan speed. Set lower number to lower the fan speed. Use the up and down buttons to select the desired speed.
* Default parameter settings may be reprogrammed by user, enter new default settings in this column.
Should any programming problems or confusion occur, reset the Default Settings by entering the program

L-2230 Page 12 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
P-2: Low Fan Limit
The low fan limit determines the lowest output allowed for the low fan speed. The values from 30 through
55, arbitrary units. Use the up and down buttons to select the low fan limit. Set a higher number, for higher
fan speed. Setting lower numbers lowers the fan speed.
IMPORTANT ! Once the high and low fan speed limits are set, the unit will automatically readjust the
remaining speeds to produce 3 equally spaced fan speeds in both automatic and manual fan modes.
P-3: Compressor Staging Time Delay
The compressor staging delay is provided for installations where more than one system is being operated
from the same power source. Setting the staging delays at different intervals allows only one compressor to
start at a time. The units should be staged at least five (5) seconds apart. The minimum delay is five (5)
seconds and the maximum is one hundred thirty-five (135) seconds.
P-4: Temperature Calibration
Use this feature to calibrate the air sensor within a range of ten (10) F. Enter the program mode and the
ambient temperature appears in the display. Use the up and down keys to select the desired offset. The
temperature in the display will increase or decrease according to the offset programmed. Note that setting
increments are in F even when the control is set to display C.
P-5: Failsafe Level
See Failsafe and Fault Handling Codes section.
P-7: De-Icing Cycle
Elite is equipped with a De-Icing Cycle to prevent ice build up on the evaporator coil during extended periods
of cooling operation. Installation variables such as grille sizes, length of ducting, insulation R factors and
ambient temperatures determine the cooling run time required to achieve set point. Customer usage may
substantially increase run times by operating the system with the hatches and doors open. Programming
unrealistic set point (55 F/12.8 C) and leaving the salon door open will usually cause the evaporator to ice
up on warm muggy days.
De-Icing is accomplished by switching the reversing valve into the Heat Mode while the system is cooling.
The valve will remain energized for the programmed cycle time. The cycle is programmable from OFF or
a period of 1, 2, or 3 minutes.
P-8: Optional Pump Sentry
Elite can be equipped with an optional temperature sensor that is used to monitor the condenser coil
temperature. The sensor is plugged into the SERVICE/H20 sensor jack and parameter P-8 programmed for
a temperature between 100 and 150 F (37.8 and 65.6 C), depending on seawater temperature and the
system type. When the coil temperature rises above the programmed value the pump and compressor are shut
down and PLF is flashed in the display. Connect the water sensor to the condenser coil outlet and insulate
it. Note that setting increments are in F even when the control is set to display C.
Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 13 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
P-9: Display Brightness Control
The display brightness can be adjusted to suit ambient cabin lighting conditions. The allowed settings are
four (4) to eighteen (18), with four (4) being the dimmest and eighteen (18) the brightest. Typically a dark
cabin will require a setting of four or five. A very bright cabin will require a setting of twelve to eighteen.
P-10: Fahrenheit or Celsius Selection
The unit can be programmed to display either Fahrenheit or Celsius. Programming F selects degrees
Fahrenheit and programming C displays degrees Celsius. The factory default setting is F, Fahrenheit.
When degrees Celsius (C) is selected the readings are displayed in tenths, i.e. 22.2 .
P-11: Cycle Pump With Compressor
To increase pump life and conserve electricity the pump can be programmed to cycle on and off with the
compressor. The pump can also be programmed to operate continuously whenever the system is on. To
program the pump for continuous operation, set P-11 to con.
P-12: Reverse Automatic Fan Speeds During Heating
The automatic fan speeds can be reversed during the heating mode to improve heat output in cooler climates.
The fan speed is decreased as the temperature spread increases. The fan will speed up as the set point is
approached. Lowering the fan speed when the cabin is cold increases head pressure and raises the supply
air temperature. Increasing the fan speed as the set point is approached also reduces unnecessary high
pressure faults. The fan switches to low speed when the set point is satisfied and the compressor cycles off.
The fan can be programmed to operate the same as in cooling by programming P-12 nor which represents
normal fan operation during reverse cycle heating.
P-13: Reverse Cycle or Electric Heat
Units not equipped with reverse cycle heat may have electric heater added. Program parameter ELE for the
electric heat option.
P-14: Fan Motor Selection
! IMPORTANT NOTE TO END USER:
Standard units have a Shaded Pole (SP) fan motor; the factory default parameter SP is correct for standard
units. However, 24,000 BTU models and units with High Velocity blowers have Split Capacitor (SC) fan
motors. A 24K unit is identifiable by the 24 in the model number (i.e., VCD24K). A High Velocity blower
does not have a blower motor overhang, the motor is inside the blower, and there is an HV in the model
number. If the A/C unit has a Split Capacitor fan motor then parameter P-14 must be changed to SC prior
to operating equipment. Save this change as a new default by simultaneously pressing and releasing the up
and down buttons prior to exiting the program mode. Make note of new default in the Programmable
Parameters table.
P-15: Reset Memorized Defaults
The default programming parameters can be reset by entering the program mode and selecting rSt. This
restores the programmable parameters to the default values. The default parameters listed in the Program-
mable Parameters table may be altered by the installing dealer or end user. Once New defaults are entered
Elite Control Operation Manual
L-2230 Page 14 Revision: 05 02 / 05 / 03
and memorized, the factory defaults will be over written. The original factory program parameters as listed
in the Programmable Parameters table may be restored manually.
Why Memorize New Defaults?
Once the desired programming changes have been made and the system tests satisfactorily, your work can
be saved as the new defaults. Your new defaults are initiated by simultaneously pressing and releasing the
up and down buttons prior to exiting the program mode.
Software Identification
The software version of the control is identified for one (1) second prior to the exit from the program mode.
The software identification number, i.e. (A10) will appear in the display for one second, then the control
will return to the off mode.
Should there be any reason to contact Taylor Made Environmental about the system or programming the
Elite, be sure to have the software identification number and serial number of the system available.
FAILSAFE AND FAULT HANDLING CODES
When a fault is detected Elite will display one of the following Mnemonic fault codes:
HPF indicates high Freon pressure.*
LPF Indicates low Freon pressure.*
ASF Indicates failed air sensor.
PLF Indicates the seawater FLOW has failed.
* NOTE: HPF is not indicated and does not cause lockout in HEAT MODE.
LPF has a 10 minute shut down delay.

AUTOMATED FACTORY-SELF TEST PROGRAM
Self-Test Mode
The Elite software contains a self-test program to facilitate factory testing of the entire air-conditioning
system. Once the self-test mode is activated, the test cycle will continue until the AC power is interrupted
or the on/off button is pressed once.
Activate the self-test by pressing the on/off button after turning on the AC power, while the display indicates
888 and all LEDs are lit. Elite is now in the self-test mode.
tSt appears in the display while in the test mode.
Once activated the self-test software will continuously execute the following procedure:
1 - Turn on in the heat mode and supply heating for ten (10) minutes.
2 - Stop heating and run the fan only for five (5) minutes.
3 - Switch to cooling and continue cooling for ten (10) minutes.
4 - Stop cooling and run the fan only for five (5) minutes.
5 - Return to step one (1) and continue until interrupted.
DISPLAY LOCATION
IMPORTANT!
The systems air sensor is located in the Display Panel.
The display MUST be located on an inside wall at eye level.
It must NOT be located in direct sunlight or inside a cabinet.
If these conditions cannnot be met, the Optional Remote
Air Sensor must be purchased and installed in the return
air stream.

SERVICE TOOLS
Hour Meter
Total compressor cycle time is saved in EEPROM every 6 minutes of continuous compressor
running time. Cycles less than 6 minutes will be discarded to conserve memory and allow the most
flexible hour-meter possible.
To view the hour meter, turn off AC power supply circuit breaker and then turn it back on.
Immediately after restoring power, while the display indicates 888 and all LEDs are lit, press the
down button. The following will appear in the display:
1. The hour meter mnemonic Hr is displayed for
one (1) second.
2. The display blanks out for one second and then
displays the THOUSANDS units for three (3) seconds.
3. The display blanks out for one (1) second and then displays the hours for three (3) seconds.
4. The unit returns to the last operating state before power was removed.
The example shown is displaying one thousand two-hundred twenty-four (1,224) hours.
Maximum recorded time is 65,536 hours. The hour meter stops at maximum 65,536 hours and can
only be reset by a service technician.
Service History
Elite will record and remember the last eight (8) service problems or service faults detected. Each
time a fault is detected, a one hour timer is started. During that hour the same recurring fault will
not be recorded. Should a different fault be detected during that hour, it will be entered into the
service history log.
The following events are entered into the service history log:
1. High Freon Pressure Fault - HPF
2. Low Freon Pressure Fault - LPF
3. Air Sensor Fault - ASF
4. Pump or Loss of Seawater Fault - PLF
To view the service log, turn off AC power supply circuit breaker and then turn it back on.
Immediately after restoring power, while the display indicates 888 and all LEDs are lit, press the
mode button. The display will flash the most recent mnemonic for the fault detected, followed by
the event number. To view the other events detected press either the up or down buttons.
To exit the service history log press the power or the mode button or wait 30 seconds without
pressing any buttons.
The service log can be cleared by simultaneously pressing the power and down buttons while you
are viewing the service log mode.
