    GLOSSARY Enhanced Commercial Controls 15.0 GLOSSARY Analog Control Signal An analog signal is a varying-voltage output signal, typically between 0–10 volts. It is most often used to produce a specific amount of output from a variable-output device, such as a digital scroll compressor or a variable speed fan.
  • Page 99 GLOSSARY Enhanced Commercial Controls IO Configuration Refers to the specific wiring terminals on the controller that are assigned for each Input or OutputIP IP Address A unique string of numbers separated by periods that identifies each computer using the Internet Protocol to communicate over a network Hot Gas Reheat (HGRH) Used in dehumidification, hot gas reheat relies on an additional coil downstream of the cooling coil in which the hot refrigerant piping is in contact with the supply air.
