SETTING THE AIR CYCLING TIME
• The “CYCLE TIME” potentiometer on the control (Figure 15) is used to set the cycle
time within the period you set in the previous step.
• The potentiometer settings range from “OFF” which is all the way counter-clockwise,
to “TEST” which is all the way clockwise. Within those two extreme settings,
the air cycling can be set from 0 to 60 minutes of air cycling time. Here’s how this
works: If you set the cycle period to 1 hour and the cycle time potentiometer to
20 minutes, you will get 20 minutes of air cycling every hour.

DEHUMIDIFIER SYSTEM CHECKOUT
1. Check the wiring to the HVAC equipment.
2. Rotate the main control knob clockwise to the “TEST” position.
3. If all is set up properly, the dehumidifier blower will turn on. The compressor will turn on after the dehumidifier blower has run for
30 seconds. After 1 minute the dehumidifier blower and compressor will shut off (“TEST” mode only).
4. If the dehumidifier blower does not activate in TEST mode, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.
5. For ventilation (optional) test, be sure that 24 VAC is applied in series with the Aprilaire
®
Normally-Closed Damper (Model 6506)
and connected to the “VENT DAMPER” terminals on the dehumidifier control.
6. Rotate the “CYCLE TIME” potentiometer clockwise to the “TEST” position.
7. If all is set up properly, the HVAC blower will turn on and the ventilation damper will open. Both should be audible to the installer.
The HVAC blower will remain on and the ventilation damper will remain open for 1 minute or until the potentiometer is turned from
the “TEST” position, whichever happens first.
8. If the optional ventilation damper or HVAC blower does not activate in TEST mode, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.
