Function
The controller measures the room temperature with its integrated sensor or via a
remote return air temperature sensor (QAH11.1) and maintains the setpoint by
delivering continuous control commands to the actuators (0 to 10 Vdc [RDU50U and
RDU50.2U] or 24 Vac on/off, or three-position [RDU20U]). The controller provides P+I
control. The factory setting for the proportional band in heating mode is 3.6°F (2°C),
and in cooling mode 1.8°F (1°C) (adjustable). The integral action time is five minutes
(adjustable). Motor run time for the RDU20U is adjustable from 50 to 150 seconds in
10-second increments.
