Outside Temperature Compensation

The controller can automatically adjust the number of degrees

required to reach the full speed of the fans (bandwidth) as a

function of outside temperature. If this outside temperature

compensation function is enabled in the User setup menu, you

must specify a different bandwidth for winter and summer.

Normally, the winter’s bandwidth should be greater than the

summer’s bandwidth.
