OPERATION  
If flame is not detected, both valves are de-energized, the  
ignitor is turned off, and the 50M56U-843 control goes into the  
“retry” sequence. The “retry” sequence provides a 60-second  
wait following an unsuccessful ignition attempt (flame not  
detected). After this wait, the ignition sequence is restarted  
with an additional 1 second of ignitor warm-up time.  
OPTION SWITCHES  
The option switches on the 50M56U-843 control are used  
to determine the length of the heat delay-to-fan-off period,  
the mode of operation, and the 2nd stage delay period. The  
following illustration shows the options and the selections of  
the switch positions. The switches are shown in the factory  
default positions.  
If flame is established for more than 10 seconds after ignition,  
the 50M56U-843 controller will clear the ignition attempt (or  
retry) counter. If flame is lost after 10 seconds, it will re-cycle  
the ignition sequence.  
*
*
During burner operation, a momentary loss of power of 50  
milliseconds or longer will de-energize the main gas valve.  
When power is restored, the gas valve will remain de-energized  
and a restart of the ignition sequence will begin immediately.  
*MODE and 2ND STG DLY for Goodman 50M56-289 only  
HEAT MODE  
When heat is required, the thermostat will send a call for heat  
to the control. This starts the control’s heating sequence. The  
ignitor and humidifier (optional) are powered. The ignitor is  
powered after the pre-purge period.  
A momentary loss of gas supply, ame blowout, or a shorted or  
open condition in the flame probe circuit will be sensed within  
2.0 seconds. The gas valve will de-energize and the control  
will restart the ignition sequence. Recycles will begin and the  
burner will operate normally if the gas supply returns, or the  
fault condition is corrected.  
Upon initial application of power, the ignitor warm-up time is 17  
seconds. The ignitor on-time will then be increased depending  
on whether or not flame is achieved. The warm-up time is  
limited to a maximum of 19 seconds. During the first 64 warm-  
up periods following power-up, the warm-up time may not be  
less than 17 seconds.  
If the control has gone into system lockout, it may be possible  
to reset the control by a momentary power interruption of one  
second or longer. Refer to SYSTEM LOCKOUT FEATURES.  
COOL MODE  
In the event of a retry, the warm-up time will be increased by  
one second and locked in at that duration. Once the warm-up  
time is locked, it remains fixed until another call for heat results  
in a retry, in which case the warm-up time is again increased  
by one second and remains locked.  
In a typical system, a call for cool is initiated by closing the  
thermostat contacts. This energizes the 50M56U-843 control  
and the compressor. The cool delay-to-fan-on period begins.  
After the delay period ends, the optional electronic air cleaner  
is energized, and the circulator fan is energized at cool  
speed. After the thermostat is satisfied, the compressor is de-  
energized and the cool mode delay-to-fan-off period begins.  
After the delay-to-fan-off period ends, the circulator fan and  
electronic air cleaner (optional) are de-energized.  
In the event of two successive retry attempts, the warm-up  
time will be unlocked and set to 19 seconds. If flame is then  
achieved, the warm-up time will begin adapting again with the  
next call for heat. If, however, this third attempt fails to achieve  
flame, the control will go into system lockout.  
After the ignitor warm-up period, MV LO (first stage) and MV  
HI (second stage) are both energized to the gas valve. Flame  
must be detected within 4 seconds. If flame is detected, the  
30-second HEAT delay-to-fan-on period begins. The circulator  
and electronic air cleaner (optional) will also energize at this  
time.  
MANUAL FAN ON MODE  
If the thermostat fan switch is moved to the ON position, the  
circulator fan (low 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.  
1 Stage operation – If the Option Switch MODE (SW1-2) is  
set to the 1 STG position, both MV LO and MV HI will remain  
energized.  
SYSTEM LOCKOUT AND  
DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES  
2 Stage operation (Goodman 50M56-289 Application only)  
– If the Option Switch MODE is set to 2 STG, MV HI will de-  
energize after 5 seconds, leaving MV LO energized. If the  
MODE is in the 2 STG position, 2nd STG DLY (SW1-3) will  
determine the second stage- on delay as follows:  
5 MIN – On call for heat, the 5 minute 2nd stage recognition  
timer begins. After the 5-minute delay, the second stage heat  
(MV HI) is energized.  
SYSTEM LOCKOUT FEATURES  
When system lockout occurs, the gas valve is de-energized,  
the circulator blower is energized at heat speed, 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.)  
AUTO – On call for heat, the automatic second stage will  
determine the optimum timing between stages for comfort.  
Auto will adapt the delay to energize MV HI from instantly to  
up to 12 minutes.  
To reset the control after system lockout, do one of the  
following:  
1. Interrupt the call for heat or cool at the thermostat for at  
least one second but less than 20 seconds (if flame is  
sensed with the gas valve de-energized, interrupting the  
call for heat at the thermostat will not reset the control).  
2. Interrupt the 24 VAC power at the control for at least one  
second. You may also need to reset the flame rollout  
sensor switch.  
When the thermostat is satisfied, the gas valve is de-energized.  
After proof of flame loss, the heat delay-to-fan-off period begins  
and the inducer blower remains energized to purge the system  
for 25 seconds.When the purge is complete, the inducer blower  
is de-energized. After the delay-to-fan-off period ends, the  
circulator fan and electronic air cleaner are de-energized.  
3. After one hour in lockout, the control will automatically  
reset itself.

OPERATION  
DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES  
FAULT CODE RESET  
The 50M56U-843 control continuously monitors its own  
operation and the operation of the system. If a failure occurs,  
the LED will indicate a failure code as shown on page 8. If  
the failure is internal to the control, the LED will stay off  
or flash 8 times. In this case, the entire control should be  
replaced, as the control is not field-repairable.  
The stored fault codes can be erased from memory. When  
the control is in standby mode (no call for heat or cool), press  
the FAULT RECALL switch for five to ten seconds or until  
the diagnostic LED begins to rapid flash. When the switch is  
released, the LED will turn off for two seconds to indicate the  
codes are erased. After two seconds the LED will turn on to  
indicate return to normal status. If the switch is held pressed  
for over ten seconds the rapid flash will stop and the LED will  
be on to indicate return to normal status.  
Failure codes will flash the LED in the following flash-  
pause sequences to indicate failure status (each flash will  
last approximately 0.25 seconds, and each pause will last  
approximately 2 seconds).  
FAULT RECALL  
The 50M56U-843 has only one serviceable part –an automotive  
type fuse, which protects the low voltage transformer from  
damage if the output is short-circuited. If the fuse has opened  
up, remove whatever caused the short circuit and replace  
the fuse with only a 3 Amp automotive type fuse. If the fuse  
does not correct the condition, replace the entire 50M56U-843  
control. There are no other user serviceable parts.  
The last five fault codes stored can be displayed on the  
diagnostic LED. When the control is in standby mode (no  
call for heat or cool), press the FAULT RECALL switch for  
approximately two seconds or until the diagnostic LED turns  
off. Release the switch and the LED will remain off for two  
seconds. Then the fault codes will display beginning with the  
most recent fault first with a two second pause between codes.  
After the stored fault codes have all displayed, the LED will  
remain off for two seconds and then turn on to indicate return  
to normal status. While displaying the stored fault codes, the  
control will ignore any new call for heat, cool or fan.

Error/Condition  
Comments/Troubleshooting  
1
External lockout (exceeded retries)  
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. Check sensor  
lead for shorting and verify furnace is grounded properly. Verify  
gas supply to valve, gas valve in "On" position and appliance  
lighting properly. Verify flame reaches flame sensor during  
ignition attempts and gas pressures are correct.
