Cause
Condition Normal. SCR processor is
powering up and checking internal
operation.
Problem! SCR circuit is not closing or
humidistat is not calling for humidity.
Condition Normal. This is a test phase.
SCR will wait 30 minutes to detect
furnace blower operation. If the
furnace blower is detected, the system
will function properly.
Problem! During the 30 minute test
phase, the SCR failed to detect the
furnace blower and turned the
humidifier off.
Condition Normal. All systems
(furnace, humidistat, humidifier and
SCR) are operating properly.
Problem! The SCR failed to detect the
furnace blower for the third time and,
as a safety precaution, has locked out
the humidifier. This is an indication
that some aspect of the system
(furnace, humidistat, humidifier or
SCR) has malfunctioned.

Action Required
No action required.
Check SCR power; check humidistat
operation. If humidity is about 45% or
outdoor temperature is above 50°F,
the humidifier won't operate unless the
humidistat is set to Test mode.
No action required.
Turn the humidistat off, then on again,
to reset the system. Although unlikely
to occur, this failure/reset process can
occur twice before further action is
necessary.
No action required.
Contact your HVAC contractor ASAP
to check out and repair the system.*
