11.5.2 Compressor Speed Control
11.5.2.1 Compressor Min On/Off time
Compressor minimum OFF time is MinOFFTime minutes except during Deicing protection.
Compressor minimum ON time is MinOnTime minutes, minimum ON time is ignored during
protections, and when unit is turned to STBY.
11.5.2.2 Compressor Speed calculation
During normal operation (excluding protections), the compressor speed is limited by the
minimum speeds according to the number of the active IDU units:

11.5.2.3 Indoor Units NLOAD calculation
The NLOAD setting is done by the indoor unit controller, based on a PI control scheme.
The actual NLOAD to be sent to the outdoor unit controller is based on the preliminary LOAD
calculation, the indoor fan speed, and the power shedding function.
NLOAD limits as a function of indoor fan speed:
Indoor Fan Speed Maximum NLOAD Cooling Maximum NLOAD Heating

Max NLOADIF1C

11.5.2.4 Outdoor Unit NLOAD calculation
ODU NLOAD is the weighted average of the active IDU NLOADs:

Quattro 3.0 2.7
The code for heat mode is related also to outdoor temperature and so in low heating conditions
the compressor speed will be higher.
Compressor speed will be set between the minimum speed and the max speed according to
the ODU NLOAD
