Taking an example for compressor loading and unloading, the system configuration is as follows:
S Number of base load stages: 2
S Number of capacity stages each capacity -controlled compressor: 3
S Number of capacity-controlled compressors: 1
Compressor loading:
Loading of compressors is illustrated in the following table for this example.

Loading takes place by first unloading the capacity stages of a capacity-controlled compressor. Then a non-ca-
pacity-controlled compressor is loaded. At the same time the capacity stages of the capacity-controlled com-
pressor are again loaded. Unloading of compressors is illustrated in the following table:

The number of capacity stages actuated for one compressor is taken into account for compressor base load
rotation. If the system is equipped with only one multi-stage compressor or if a compressor is the variable-speed
type, limiting of compressor starts is cancelled for this compressor. Compressor starts limiting remains active for
the second and higher capacity stages as a means of preventing overlong standstill of the system.
If more than one capacity-controlled compressor or only one single-stage compressor is provided with a step
controller, limiting of compressor starts remains active for all stages. When compressor starts limiting is can-
celled for the first stage, a minimum standstill time for the first stage can be set by the Standstill S1 xxxs para-
meter (Menu 3-3). This minimum standstill time is only shown when the system has no more than one capacity-
controlled or variable-speed compressor.
