4.10.4  Using BLENDED TUNE at start-up for Duplex (Heat/Cool) 
When DUPLEX has been configured for DISABLE. This is the preferred selection for 
Heat/Cool applications, which use a highly insulated chamber (a chamber which will lose 
heat very slowly unless a cooling device is applied). Only one local setpoint (LSP 1) is 
needed for this selection. 
This selection results in performance tuning over the full range utilizing both Heat and 
Cool outputs to acquire blended tune values that are then applied to both Heat and Cool 
tuning parameters. Both PID sets are set to the same values.
