due to operating conditions.
The table given below summarizes the unit control type

following parameters:
• Operating type: This operating type is selected using
the Start/Stop button on the user interface.

stop force command can be used to control the chiller
state in the Network mode.
- Command set to stop: The unit is halted.
- Command set to start: The unit runs in
accordance with schedule 1.

master unit in a two-chiller master/slave arrangement,
the master unit may be set to be controlled locally,
remotely or via network.
