    Installation 1.1 Introduction Your Desert Aire controller is designed for precise monitoring and control of air temperature, relative humidity (RH) and Dew Point (DP) within a conditioned environment. This CM3570 control system is easy to install and operate. The controller itself is installed in the electrical cabinet of the dehumidifier and features an internal display terminal (IDT) and an optional remote display terminal (RDT).
