    PSC MOTOR CONTROL BOARD Figure 1 - Connection Locations ELECTRICAL (MAXe UNITS) The DCC7235 is a microcontroller-based electronic volume controller for brushless dc motor-driven fan coils, furnaces or other systems. It commands discrete or variable blower speeds, torques or airflow in heating, cooling and ventilation modes from inputs provided from a discrete or proportional thermostat or controller whose switched 24VAC signal outputs activate a blower's air volume.
