3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS & INSTALLATION
for RS265LA
for RS267LA
RS269LA
When the system power is initally engaged, the default set temperature are -4℉ for the freezer and 38℉ for the set
refrigerator, respectively. The numbers shown on the digital display panel stand for the actual compartments
temperatures. When the compartment temperatures go down, so do the numbers on the display panel, and finally they
reach the set temperatures. Once the system is stabilized, the display temperatures are the set temperature.
note) Because of the temperature sensor sensivity, the refrigerator can be under and/or over cooled when
the air flow is blocked by stored foods. (Temperature range of the sensor : 15℉∼80℉)
In the event of a power failure, if the freezer temperature is maintained lower than 41℉, the last
selected set temperature and functions memorized in EEPROM will be restored when the power is on.
20
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS & INSTALLATION
4) Initial Power-On
4-1) When the freezer and the refrigerator temperatures are higher than 14℉ and 50℉, respectively, if Power

11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
This circuit shows SMPS(Switch Mode Power Supply) which converts AC input voltage (115V, 60Hz) to a high DC voltage
(170V). The input AC source power is converted to DC through a wave rectifier (BD1) and the converted DC power will
generate a constant waveform on the switching transformer using a high speed (100KHz) switching motion of TOP223Y.
The D104 will rectify the generated voltage and transform into a steady 12V DC source power used for the digital display
panel and relays. The regulator (KA7805) finally transforms into 5V DC source power for the control board and sensor’s
circuits.
Caution) Be careful to handle this circuit due to high voltages (AC115V, DC170V)
This is oscillator circuit to generate synchronous clocks used to calculate the time for the microprocessor operation.
Note) If the specification of resonator changes, micro-processor can not work properly.
Terminal Voltage
Vcc DC 5V
RESET DC 5V
The reset circuit is to initialize the values RAM & other sectors of micro-processor. When the power is engaged initially,
the reset voltage becomes “Low,” and it keeps “High” in the normal operation.
76
11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
1) The terminals, ② and ⑥ of the connector (CN30) are grounded, and DC5V (Vcc) is supplied to the terminals, ⑤ and
⑥ through the resistors, R404 and R403 for the freezer and the refrigerator door, respectively.
2) The micro-processor senses the door’s open and close based on engaged voltages, “Low(0V)” and “High(5V),”
respectively.
Note) The door switch always should be checked when the evaporator fan is not running while the door is closed.
1) A thermistor with a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) is used for a temperature sensor.
2) Resistors, R 306 ∼ R310 and capacitors, C 301 ∼ C 305 are used for a noise protection purpose.
3) For the F-sensor, the input voltage into the micro processor (MICOM), VF is calculated by (Rth x Vcc)/(R303+ Rth),
where Rth is a corresponding resistance to the thermistor’s output (See Ref. 6 in Appendix).
77
11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
78
11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
The step signals of DC 11∼ 12V will be generated periodically. If a sink signal outputs from IC4, DC 11-12V will be
applied to the LED input terminal and sink the LED output terminal to 0V. Therefore, LED will be ON for 2 miliseconds.
2) Key Scan
The 6 step signals, Q6∼Q4 are applied to scan the 6 keys (buttons). When SW6 is pressed, the step signal from Q6
will be reduced to 5V and entered to the MICOM, then MICOM will match a corresponding function for SW6 key.
79
11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
1-1) CoolSelect ZoneTM is referred to as a storage drawer to implement features of Quick cool, Thaw, and Select (Soft
Freeze, Chill, and Cool).
1-2) CoolSelect ZoneTM has an additional display panel. Panel LEDs are off while the doors are closed. When a door is
open, micro-processor senses its signal and LEDs will be on.
1-3) The basic operational principle is the same as the key scan process.
1-4) The additional sensor can measure the temperature of CoolSelect ZoneTM. This sensor enables to control the
features of CoolSelect ZoneTM.
80
11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
2-1) CoolSelect ZoneTM Drawer is controlled by a damper to supply or block cold air. For Quick Cool, the damper will be
close. So cold air is supplied only to CoolSelect ZoneTM Drawer. For Thaw, the evaporator heater of refrigerator is
ON and the damper is controlled by the refrigerator temperature.
2-2) The stepping motor controlled by a Driver IC TA7774P(IC7) operates the damper. The stepping motor uses 4
combined signals to open and close the damper.
Note) To prevent the malfunction from a high humidity, a Dc12V, 1 watt heater is mounted and activated continuously.
1-1) This refrigerator adopts a BLDC motor produces energy consumption, Motors of the freezer, refrigerator and the
machine compartment are composed of the BLDC. For RS2534, R-fan is operated by AC 115V Motor.
Note) Under the conditions, the fans will be operated in 2 options, such as High and Low mode. Generally, it is
operated in the High mode during a day time and in the Low mode at night.
81
11. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
1-3) When the motor rpm is in 600∼700, it will stop automatically and it tries to resume after 10 seconds. If the motor is
not working properly after 5 time trials, it will rest for 10 minutes, then try to resume again. This process will be
done continuously.
Note) If there is an abnormal situation for the motor, the self-diagnostics will show the corresponding LED segment.
2) Most of relays or SSRs can control compressor, refrigerator/freezer defrost heater, and several option functions.
3) For compressor, #18 pin of micro processor signals High (5V). This signal inputs #5 pin of IC3 and #14 of output
terminal which have base and collector functions of IC3 turns on and connects the GND. Relay 73 will be grounded
through #14 of IC. Magnetic lines will generate so that the second side of RY73 is activated and 115V is supplied to
the compressor. On the other hands, if #18 of micro processor turns Low(0V), #5 of IC3, the current of RY 73 relay,
and magnetic line will shut down in sequence. A contact point in secondary side of Relay 73 is off. Finally compressor
will stop.
