The initial open angle of EXV is 250P, dependent on indoor model
size, adjustment range is 100-400p. After the unit works for three
minutes, the outdoor unit receives the indoor units (of capacity
demand) T2 information and calculates the their average. After
comparing each indoor units' T2 with the average, the outdoor unit
gives the following modification commands.
If the T2<average +2, the relevant valve needs more 16p close. If
average +2 the T2 average.2, the relevant valve's open range
≥ ≥
remains. If the T2< average.2, the relevant valve needs more 16p open.
