Start the control

1. Go to Start/Stop display

Press the blue manual control button at the bottom of the 
display.

2. Start control

First  start of control - continued

Press in the field against 

Main switch

.

Select 

ON

.

The controller will now start controlling the compressors and the fans.

Note:  

Control does not start until both the internal and external switch are 

“ON”.

Any external compressor stop breaker must be ON for the compressors 

to start.
