RWD68U Universal Controller 

Document Number 155-738 
January 14, 2005 

 

Software Tool 

An optional, user-friendly, Windows® 95 (or later) based software tool for controller 
application selection and parameter adjustment is available. It provides you with a 
printout of the controller settings. This tool allows controller programming prior to 
installation. 

Functions 

Controller Type 

The RWD68U is a stand-alone universal controller, which performs both primary and 
auxiliary control functions. The respective mode is defined by entering the 
corresponding configuration and setting parameters via the push buttons on the 
controller or the software tool. 

Main Functions 

The RWD68U controller can be programmed as follows: 

• 

One sequence: 

Q1 

Reverse or direct acting 

• 

Two sequences:  Y1 and Q1  Reverse and direct acting or 

   

Y1 and Q1  Reverse and reverse acting (independent  

   

 

and dependent control loop) or 

   

Y2 and Q1  Direct and direct acting (independent and  

  

 

dependent 

control 

loop) 

NOTE: 

Direct Acting – As air temperature increases, the control output increases. 

 

Reverse Acting – As air temperature increases, the control output 
decreases.
