1. Connecting curtain machines Curtains are usually controlled by equipment called curtain machines sometimes referred to as winches Curtains are opened and closed to let in more air or less air the idea being more air cools the building You can connect up to six curtain machines to the Supra Each curtain machine you connect requires two relays one for opening the curtain and one for closing the curtain Supra relay ratings 10 FLA 360 watts tungsten If you are connecting equipment that exceeds the relay ratings you must install a power contactor For more information read Using power contactors to increase the capacity of relays on page 16 Refer to Appendix D Installation worksheet on page 135 and Appendix E Configuration worksheets on page 137 when installing curtain machines 2008 02 14 25 Chapter 2 Installing the Supra To connect curtain machines Connect curtain machines to the Supra as shown below L1 L CLOSE OPEN L2 NEUTRAL Connecting single stage heating or cooling elements Heating or cooling elements include equipment such as electric heaters furnaces single speed fans and curtains Follow these instructions to connect curtains that are not controlled by actuators Refer to Appendix D Installation worksheet on page 135 and Appendix E Configuration worksheets on page 137 when installing single stage heating or cooling elements Supra rela
