3.4 920 Functions
3.5 Control Point Setup
20
The sections that follow explain the various functions of the 920 controller and how they can be
accessed. The first line of each section identifies the function to be described. Each section goes
on to explain the Purpose of the function, the Range over which it may be set, the Procedure for
setting or enabling the feature, and finally any Notes or Cautions that pertain to the particular
function.
Setting and using the alarming functions of the 920 controller is a two step procedure:
1. The alarm must be enabled or disabled accordingly. When using the 920 Operator Console,
access to all alarming functions is available using the

2. The corresponding alarm point value may be modified appropriately for the application.
When using the 920 Operator Console, access to the alarm points is also available using the
mode sub-menus. Modification of the alarm setpoint values is found in the

This Section describes the setup parameters that relate to a specific control point—either Point
A or Point B. These parameters must be configured for each of the two control points that are
used.
3.5.1 CONTROL SETPOINT TEMPERATURE
Purpose: The
CONTROL SETPOINT
maintains the circuit temperature through either proportional, proportional ambient
tional ambient contactor, or deadband control, depending on the controllers' configuration. The
temperature is compared to the temperature measured by the control tem-
CONTROL SETPOINT
perature sensor (
). A decision is then made to turn on or turn off the output to control power
