19 AC-2000 | 8.10/8.11
• Maximum number of ventilation levels: The AC-2000 supports up to 20 ventilation levels.
However, limiting this to a smaller number simplifies the ventilation table.
• Analog out 1 (0-3):
• Analog out 1/Analog out 2 (0-3) (0-4 AC-2000 Plus, Version 8.11):
o '0': None
o '1': Variable fan
o '2': Light
o '3': Variable heater
o '4': Variable fan #2 (AC-2000 Plus, Version 8.11)
• First tunnel level: When using tunnel ventilation, enter the ventilation level (in accordance with
the ventilation and curtain level tables) at which the system starts tunnel ventilation.
• Number of heating zones: The AC-2000 can control up to six separate heating zones. For one
zone only, the average temperature controls the heaters. For two or more zones, the assigned
sensors control the heaters in each zone (Menu 94).
• Automatic continuous temperature adjustment: The AC-2000 uses precisely the values
entered in the temperature tables for each growth period if this is ‘0’. For automatic interpolation
between these entries, enter ‘1’. The options are as follows:
o '0': without
o '1': temperature
o '2': temperature and Min/Max
• Barn Number: This identifies the particular barn for the personal computer at home. Use a
unique number for each AC-2000 to enable the communication program to identify each
controller.
• Curtain opening and closing times: Enter the number of seconds it takes the curtains to go
from fully closed to fully open, and from fully open to fully closed for each curtain. The AC-2000
uses this value to calculate the run time for each curtain when it moves them.
• Tunnel curtain opening and closing times
• Measurement Unit: Set the unit to be used when setting the house/shed dimensions. This
variable is used in calculating the wind chill correction factors (see the User Manual).
• Air Capacity Unit: ‘0’ for M
3
/hour, ‘1’ for CFM (cubic feet per minute); Default value = ‘0’
