Idle Drain = drain cylinder after Idle Drain Time. Keep Warm = keep
cylinder warm by periodically engaging contactor. (Default = Idle Drain).
Idle Drain Time
When Idle Mode = Idle Drain configures time the humidifier waits with no
demand before the cylinder is drained. (Default = 72 hours).
3DD Force
When On the humidifier will drain the contents of the cylinder every 3 days
regardless of demand or idle condition. It can improve performance for
water conditions with sediment or other contaminants. (Default = Off).
Dfactor
Increases or decreases the drain time used to control cylinder water conductivity. It should not
normally need to be adjusted. A NORTEC representative will provide instructions if it should
need to be adjusted. (Default = 1.0).
Drain Mode
Configures when a corrective drain will be performed in case the software detects excess
current. Fixed ED = drain at 115% of full capacity. Float ED = drain at 115% of current
demand. (Default = Fixed ED).
Foam Mode
These settings can be used to detect foaming in the cylinder and take corrective action. Basic
is a software only setting. Advanced requires installation of a hardware kit. (Default = Off,
Default with Kit = Advanced).
Cal. Drain Mode
Sets how the humidifier drains to control cylinder water conductivity. Basic = normal drain,
Prefill = fill then drain, Multi = fill then drain to trigger point until drain duration elapsed. (Default
