Auto

 fan mode can only be selected if the unit is in

Heat

 or 

Cool

. In Auto mode the fan will cycle with the call

for 

Heat

 or 

Cool

. Fan speed will be determined by the mi-

croprocessor and speed adjustments will be made according

to room temperature and setpoint. The fan will switch to

High

 speed when room temperature deviates by more than

2° F from setpoint. The fan will switch to low speed if the

deviation  is  1°  F. When  the  room  temperature  reaches

setpoint temperature the heat/cool call is dropped. The fan

will then stay on for an additional 60 seconds to purge the

unit of any residual energy.

To select 

Cool

 mode, turn the unit on via the

 On/Off

switch. The LCD will display room temperature. Select 

Cool

mode via the 

Mode

 button. Then, by depressing either the

Up

 or 

Down

 arrow once, the setpoint temperature will ap-

pear in the LCD display. The setpoint temperature can then

be changed with each successive press of the 

Up

 or 

Down

arrow or by holding the button in. Place the setpoint tem-

perature below the room temperature. The compressor will

start and cooling will continue as long as the setpoint is be-

low the room temperature.

Once room temperature is satisfied, the compressor

will  cycle  off. The fan will operate as described in “Fan

Operation.” Once the compressor is switched off (or if power

is lost), there is a three-minute delay before restarting.

perature above the room temperature. The compressor will

start heating and run as long as the setpoint is above the

room temperature.*

*  Some EMI heat pump condensers are equipped with a low tem-

perature cutout that will shut down the compressor & energize the
indoor electric heat when outdoor temperatures fall below 0° F.

Once the room temperature is satisfied, the compres-

sor will cycle off. The fan will operate as described in “Fan

Operation.” Once the compressor is switched off (or power

is lost), there is a three-minute delay before it will re-start.

Should the room temperature fall more than 2° F below the

setpoint, the electric heat will energize along with the heat

pump (2-stage heating).

The electric heat will continue to run until the devia-

tion between room temperature and setpoint temperature is

less than 2° F. At that time the electric heat is switched off

and the heat pump will take over the heating demand. This

will continue until the room temperature reaches setpoint

temperature and heating demand is satisfied. The fan will

operate as described in “Fan Operation.”

CHARGING EMI SPLIT SYSTEMS

EMI publishes a variety of charts that are to be used

as a general guideline for properly charging EMI systems.

We make available the following “Charge Tables and Op-

eration Charts” to assist the installer at time of startup.

It is very important to note that they should be utilized

whenever starting up a complete EMI Split System combi-

nation. However, there are a wide range of variables that

will cause your readings to deviate from published data some-

what.

NOTE:

 EMI highly recommends using the “Su-

perheat” values from the Operation Charts as

a final fine-tune of system charge.

ROCEDURE

Step 1-

 Following proper evacuation (to 200 microns

or  less),  release  factory  charge  from  condenser

throughout the system by backseating the refrigerant

valves. This is enough refrigerant for a system that

has little to no interconnect (enough refrigerant for

condenser and evaporator only).

Step 2-

 Use supplied “Refrigerant Charge Tables” for

deciding how much refrigerant you will need to weigh

into your system to bring it close to optimum. EMI

recommends that, when weighing in refrigerant per

chart information, you initially leave the charge short

(3-5 ounces) as your exact combination or ambient

conditions  may  cause  a  small  deviation  from  chart

value.

Step 3-

 With your refrigerant gauges on the system

high and low side, let the system settle out and compare

values to the supplied “Operation Chart” values for

your combination. You can now fine tune your system

charge by adding (or reclaiming) enough refrigerant
