Fuzzy logic helps ensure stable system performance by maintaining a constant evaporating temperature (Te) in cooling mode, and a constant
condensing temperature (Tc) in heating mode. Both Te (cooling) and Tc (heating) can be set at various steps in the installation mode.
• Cooling Mode (Te): 35.6~41°F
• Heating Mode (Tc): 116.6~123.8°F
Te and Tc can be determined simultaneously by setting DIP switches.
