On single and dual digital scroll compressor systems, the first compressor is started at 25% calculated
output from the temperature proportional band and stopped at 10%. On dual digital scroll compressor
systems, the second compressor is started at 35% and stopped at 20%, see Figure 17. When a com-
pressor is started, the solenoid is energized longer than it is de-energized to match the call for cooling.
When the call for cooling increases to 100%, the solenoid is de-energized for the entire 15 second cycle.
