    2 clock outputs. Fan stages can be configured to activate cooling systems in timer mode. In all, the Expert-32T provides up to 32 relay outputs. In addition, if vent doors are not used, up to 12 PF-6 air inlet controllers can be connected to the unit.
  • Page 6 CONTROL OF AIR INLET MOVEMENT If the Expert-32T is used in combination with one or more PF-6 control- lers, the movement of air inlets can be coordinated with the operation of the fans using a potentiometer located on the panel drive. This allows the air inlets to be adjusted correctly, without the influence of uncontrol- lable factors such as wind or air from adjoining rooms.
  • Page 7 The controller can be connected to a computer, thus making it possible to centralize the management of information and diversify control strate- gies. TEST MODE A test mode allows you to simulate temperature changes and verify controller performance. Expert-32T rev.03...
