4.6.  RH Compensation 

Setup

The controller offers different ways to com-
pensate  for  high  and  low  relative  humidity 
(RH) levels in the barn. This section shows 
how to enable the desired RH compensation 
functions. 

1. Select:

  Main menu 

  Setup *
  User
  RH Compens**

*  A password may be required to access this menu.
**  This menu is accessible if a humidity sensor is 

enabled (sec. 4.7.1).

RH Compensation

RH Compens Heaters? 

Yes

Use Mist Shutoff? 

Yes

Use Mist on Lo %RH 

Yes

Use Cool Cell Shutoff 

Yes

2. Enable  or  disable  the  following  relative 
humidity (RH) compensation options:

The following parameters are common 
to all programs of the controller.

RH compensation with heaters —

 The con-

troller  can  compensate  for  high  humidity 
levels by activating heating outputs in timer 
mode. Select 

“Yes”

 to use this compensation 

method.

Mist Shutoff —

 The controller can deactivate 

the misting output when humidity levels are 
too high. Select 

“Yes”

 to use this compensa-

tion method.

Misting on low humidity levels (% RH) —

 The 

controller can activate misting outputs when 
humidity levels are too low. Select 

“Yes”

 to 

use this compensation method.

Cool  cell  shutoff  —

  The  controller  can  de-

activate the cool cell output when humidity 
levels are too high. Select 

“Yes”

 to use this 

compensation method.

4.7.  Probe Setup

4.7.1.  Probe Activation

Follow these steps to enable or disable the 
probe inputs.

1. Select:

  Main menu 

  Setup *
  User
  Probes

*  A password may be required to access this menu.

Probe Selection

Number of Inside Probe 

4

Use Inside RH Probe? 

Yes

Use Outside RH Probe? 

Yes

# Water Meter 

8

# Outside T° Probe 

2

Use SP Probe? 

Yes

2. Enable  or  disable  the  following  probe 
inputs:

The following parameters are common 
to all programs of the controller.

Inside probe —

 Select the number of inside 

temperature probes that are connected to the 
controller (1 to 8 probes). 

Inside relative humidity (RH) probe —

 Select 

“Yes”

 if an indoor humidity probe is connected 

to the controller.

Outside relative humidity (RH) probe —

 Select 

“Yes”

  if  an  outdoor  humidity  probe  is  con-

nected to the controller.

Water  meter  —

  Enable  the  desired  number 

of water meter inputs (1 to 9). Note that the 
controller only has 1 built-in water meter in-
put. Connect water meters 2-9 to an external 
water meter module.

Outside T° —

 Select the number of outside 

temperature probes that are connected to the 
controller (0 to 2 probes). 

Static pressure (SP) probe —

 Select 

“Yes”

 if 

a static pressure sensor is connected to the 
controller.

4.7.2.  Probe & Water Meter Cali-
bration

You can slightly adjust the reading of each 
probe input in order to obtain accurate and 
uniform readings from all probes. In addition, 
if a water meter is used, you must calibrate 
its water flow rate.

required). 

The following parameters are common 
to all programs of the controller.

Temperature  probes  (indoor  &  outdoor)  —

 

The reading of inside and outside temperature 
probes can be adjusted of ±5°F (±2.8°C). 

Relative  humidity  probe  —

  The  reading  of 

inside  and  outside  humidity  probes  can  be 
adjusted of ±3%.
