Version: 1.0
1. Before calling Drake, make sure you:
a. Have ready:
i. Chiller’s serial number (located on
the exterior of the chiller, inside the
electrical panel door, and, on the
sticker shown to the right)
ii. Multimeter
iii. Ambient readings, temperature
probes, and pressure transducers
iv. Small flathead screwdriver
v. Laptop, for in-depth diagnostics
using MCS-Connect
vi. An RS-485 to USB cable (shipped
in the manilla folder with the chiller)
b. Check all fuses
c. Check fluids
i. Verify freeze point
ii. Check tank level
d. Make sure unit is correctly wired (no loose
wires) and receiving power matching that
found on the data tag
2. For component locations, refer to the included
wiring and piping diagrams
WARNING!
Make sure to shut down AND disconnect chiller, waiting for ALL
displays or indicator lights to turn off, BEFORE making wiring
changes or replacing fuses
Failure to follow could result in serious injury or death

MCS – Magnum Error / Alarm Manual
Version: 1.0
A 60-second delay (configurable) during chiller
startup in which all Relay Outputs are shut off and
ensures the board is receiving stable power.
When the unit is shut off due to a user set
schedule, the unit displays this status. In this state,
all relays are disabled, and their statuses will read
“OFF.” The schedule can be viewed or modified in
the Service Tools menu.

This status is displayed when the Run/Stop Switch
has been turned off. In this state, all relays are
disabled, and their statuses will read “OFF.”
To enable the Run/Stop, refer to Appendix E.
This status is displayed when the Flow Switch does
not detect any flow through the evaporator. In this
state, all relays are disabled
until flow is
reestablished, and their statuses will read “OFF.”

Magnum Unit States
This state is displayed when the connection with
an expansion board (whether a relay or sensor
expansion board) has been lost. The board will
keep trying to reconnect and will display a LOST
I/O RESTART if it reconnects to board. In this
state, all relay outputs except the alarm relay will
be turned off.
This state is displayed when:
- The unit is at the target temperature, and is
maintaining the temperature
- The unit temperature is above the target,
but no additional cooling levels are needed
because Setpoint #27 is satisfied
- The unit temperature is below the target,
but the current level of cooling is adequate
because Setpoint #28 is satisfied
No Run – I/O Lost
