Standard Control: Voltage
In Voltage Control Mode the RTD-10
Inputs allow individual control of a/c
S1
unit operating parameters using
voltages. Each input corresponds to a
specific unit setting shown in the
0V
S1
table below If an input is left
unconnected or is set to 0 Volts then
the corresponding setting will remain
at the default value.

Voltages should be within +/- 0.25V of the quoted value. Open circuit for V<1V.
Standard Control: Relay R1 Output
SW1.3 configures Relay R1 as either a Run signal that closes when the unit is
enabled to run, or a Defrost signal that indicates when the unit is in Defrost.
Standard Control: Setpoint Limit
If SW1.4 is ON then a setpoint limit of 19 to 23 degrees is applied to setpoint
adjustments made from the Remote Controller or Central Controller. Setpoint
Limiting only applies when the setpoint buttons are unlocked and the keypad
Unlock input S6 is NOT set to Local. The setpoint limits are not applies to
setpoint control from input S1 or adjustment via Modbus commands.
Standard Control: Remote Controller Unlock
Input S6 in Voltage or Resistance mode can configure the unlock state of the
Remote Controller buttons. The default state is Unlock, in this state the
Remote Controller buttons are all active and no lock symbol appears on the
display. Updates from inputs S1 to S5 are only sent when the input changes so
that users can still operate the A/C. Setting S6 to Locked locks all input
buttons and updates from the inputs S1 to S5 will control the operation of the
A/C. Several partial Lock states allow combinations of the Setpoint, Mode and
On/Off buttons to be locked so that the user has partial control of the unit.
Setting S6 to Local unlocks all remote controller buttons and prevents any
control updates from inputs S1 to S5.
Heating System Interlock

The RTD-10 can be configured to operate in Heating System Interlock mode

to prevent A/C cooling or heating operation from conflicting with the operation
S4
of an additional system. The RTD-10 can be wired to operate either in Master
mode in which the RTD-10 determines when the secondary system operates,
or Slave mode in which the secondary system will inhibit the RTD-10 operation.

INTERLOCK MASTER MODE
To operate the RTD-10 in Interlock Master Mode the relay output R1 is wired
as an input to the secondary system. With SW1.3 OFF R1 will close when the
unit is On and in a cooling mode. With SW1.3 ON R1 will close when the unit is
On and in a heating mode. If the unit is in fault then R1 will not operate.

INTERLOCK SLAVE MODE
To operate in slave mode the input S4 operates as a Volt-free inhibit input.
When the inhibit signal is closed circuit the RTD-10 will prevent the A/C unit
from operating. Input S4 operation can be inverted by inserting a Short Circuit
on input S2.
The RTD-10 can be configured using switch SW1.4 to switch the A/C units
OFF during the inhibit or to switch the units to FAN-ONLY or Mode Inhibit. The
inhibit signal overrides on/off commands both from the Remote Controller as
well as input S5. If A/C Fan-Only mode is selected then the unit will remain on
and the unit mode will be switched to Fan-only and locked. If Mode Prohibit is
selected then the Mode will be prevented from operating in Auto and Heat if
Heating Inhibit is selected (SW1.3 OFF), and will be prevented from operating
in Auto, Cool and Dry if Cooling Prohibit is selected (SW1.3 ON).
