5.2 – Modulating Head Pressure Control
A 10K Nominal NTC Thermistor is connected to the "P1" and "P2" inputs for circuit 1 and circuit 2
respectively. When this sensor is connected, the "FCC IN" is ignored and the thermistor value is used
as the process variable when controlling the head pressure. The controller modulates the Outdoor Fan
Motor to maintain a 90ºF temperature setpoint. The controller will always use the greater value of P1
and P2 input as the reference point. In the event that the Thermistor is disconnected, the controller
reverts to the "FCC IN" input to control the Head Pressure of the system.
5.3– Freeze Stat
A 10K Nominal NTC Thermistor is connected to the "FS1" input on the PCB. If the Thermistor is
not connected, freeze protection will not be provided. If the Thermistor is connected, the control will
provide the freeze protection by turning the compressor Off at a temperature of 35ºF (+/- 2ºF) on the
Indoor Coil. The compressor will remain Off until the temperature measured is greater than 45ºF and
the anti-short cycle time has elapsed.
5.4– Onboard Thermostat
The Onboard Thermostat requires a 10K NTC thermistor to be connected to the "FS2" input. It also
requires that the MODBUS functionality is enabled via MODBUS. The Heating Setpoint, Cooling
Setpoint and Calibration of the sensor has to be configured via MODBUS. Once configuration is
complete, the unit has the capability to function autonomously to maintain the space temperature.
