SYSTEM OPERATION
28
The system will automatically make adjustments in an attempt
to satisfy the thermostat as close to this target runtime as pos
-
sible. After a power cycle or mode change (cooling to heating
or heating to cooling) the system will run full capacity for the
selected mode during the first thermostat call. Based on the
selected target runtime and how long the initial cycle takes
to satisfy the thermostat, the control algorithm will adjust the
system stage times for a 2 stage unit or the capacity demand
percentage for an inverter / modulating unit for the next cycle.
NOTE
: actual run times may change depending on variations
of load throughout the day.

The following table shows the ranges for each of item
when the adjustable Comfort Setting Option 6 is selected.
The table shows the minimum value, the maximum value
and the defaulted value. All items can be adjusted up or
down by increments of 1 which provides full flexibility
for all items. Note: it is critical that these numbers be set
properly. If Comfort Setting option 3 is desired but a target
time of 60 is preferred, select Comfort Setting Option 6
to enable all the adjustable menus, set the Target Time
to 60 and make sure the other menus are set to match
that of Comfort Setting Option 3.

CIRCULATOR BLOWER SPEED
The Airflow quantity is displayed as a number on the three
7 segment displays, rounded to the nearest 100 CFM.
The display alternates airflow amount and the system
operating status.
Each furnace has a “Maximum CFM” it is capable of
providing. All fan operations (Constant CFM, Cooling
Airflow Profiles, Low and High Stage gas heat airflow,
outdoor Air Conditioner / Heat Pump Airflow, etc.) are
based off of multipliers which are percentages of this
maximum CFM. Max CFM is as follows:
3 Ton Models 1400 CFM
4 Ton Models 1760 CFM
5 Ton Models 2200 CFM
Setup Furnace Airflow: Adjust the Gas Heating Airflow
menu (gAF) setting to the desired percentage of
maximum airflow. In most cases the default gas heat
airflow will provide a temperature rise near the middle of
the acceptable range. High Stage CFM can be calculated
by the following equation: CFM = Max CFM * Selected
Heating Airflow Percentage.
For Communicating Outdoor Units: Main airflow
adjustment is not required. The Outdoor unit will
determine the appropriate amount of indoor airflow to
request. Airflow Trims can be made if desired.
For Non-Communicating outdoor units, determine the
proper airflow (based off tonnage of) the outdoor unit.
Most cooling systems are designed to work with airflow
between 350 and 450 CFM per ton. 400 CFM/TON is
the industry standard. Once desired airflow has been
determined, see Tonnage / Airflow table to identify the
Tonnage Selection that is closest to the desired airflow.
This table is based on 400 CFM per ton where Airflow =
(400 CFM) x (Selected Tonnage).
Example: if 1520 CFM is the desired airflow the Tonnage
Selection that matches this is 3.8
Enter the Tonnage (ton) menu either by using the on
board push buttons or phone application and select
the Tonnage Selection you identified. Note: Trim is also
available if additional adjustment is required.

COOLING AIRFLOW RAMPING PROFILES
The multi-circulator blower also offers several custom ON/
OFF ramping profiles. These profiles may be used to enhance
cooling performance and increase comfort level. The ramping
profiles are selected using the Cooling Airflow Profile menu
(if push buttons are used, use the CAP menu to select the
desired profile). Refer to the bullet points below for a descrip
-
tion of each ramping profile.
