About this guide
This quick start guide provides the basic information you
need to configure and install the Verasys
Controller (VEC), LC-VEC100-0, using the Verasys generic
rooftop unit (RTU) heat pump controller application. The
application controls a third-party changeover bypass
(COBP) system or a third-party variable air volume (VAV)
unit.
For further information, refer to the Verasys Equipment
Controller (VEC) Installation Guide (24-10143-1272) and the
