• In Heating mode, the RSMD modulates and stages Up to 4 RSMD’s can be connected, depending on the size of the the compressors to maintain a given Supply Air system. There are 2 E-BUS Expansion Ports which allow the use of Temperature Setpoint.
The RSMD is connected to the VCC-X or VCCX2 Controller. The Suction Pressure Sensors are used to measure suction pressure Up to 4 RSMD’s can be connected, depending on the size of the at the HVAC unit’s DX evaporator coil suction line. This suction system.

INPUTS & OUTPUTS RSMD Inputs & Outputs RSMD - Inputs & Outputs BIN3 - Outside Coil Temperature / Proof of Water Flow Status +5V VDC Power This input can be used for the following two options: This output is a 5 VDC output that supplies power to the Suction Air to Air Heat Pump Pressure Transducers.
To stage down compressors, if the digital compressor(s) have modulated down to 30% for the Stage Down Delay period and the If the RSMD has two Digital Compressors, the 1st Compressor will SAT has fallen below the SAT Cooling Setpoint minus the Stage be locked at 100% and the 2nd Compressor will modulate.
The Refrigeration System Module for Digital Compressors (RSMD) can monitor a Head Pressure Transducer and control a Condenser Fan to maintain a Head Pressure Setpoint. The RSMD must be confi gured for an Air Cooled Condenser. A Condenser Relay is commanded on when the fi rst compressor is enabled (except if the unit is in Heat Pump Defrost Mode).
