E2 Parameters Definition:

112 = Highest of Pile 1 or 2

113 = Highest of Pile 1 or 3

114 = Highest of Pile 1 or 4

123 = Highest of Pile 2 or 3

124 = Highest of Pile 2 or 4

134 = Highest of Pile 3 or 4

Any other number will average Pile 1, Pile 2 Pile 3 and Pile 4.

The default setting is 0.

Humid_Diff. This parameter is used when the Humidity Config is set to 1 and

                                                    Plenum and Humidity sensors are averaged.  If the two sensors drift more than
                                                    this setting then the Low Humidity Alarm will be active.  The default value is 10
                                                     percent.

Max Refrig Fan Speed

If running the fan pile differential in Auto, this is the max speed the fans will

ramp up to. The default setting is 100.

Max Pile Diff

If the Pile Differential exceeds this value when the Setpoint is in the ramp

condition, the ramp will be halted until the drops below this setting.

Total Heat Hours

This is the number of hours the system has run in the heat mode. This value

should be cleared at the start of each storage year.

Total Refrig Hours

This is the number of hours the system has run in the refrigeration mode. This

value should be cleared at the start of each storage year.
