The following controls are located on the outside of the panel.
6.2.1.1.
Automatic/Manual
The automatic/manual switch is used as its name implies. The
Automatic position allows the controller to move the curtains to
control temperature. When the switch is in the manual position, the
controller will still automatically operate the stages to control
temperature, but the curtain can only be moved using the
open/close/off switch.
