3. General control parameters of IDUs include "Set mode", "Set temperature", "Set fan speed", "Cooling temperature in auto mode", "Heating temperature in auto mode", "Swing left/right", and "Swing up/down". Some models require that all the general control parameters are set at the same time. That is, command code 16 is used to set all the general control parameters at the same time.
