Hi guys, it took me a while to find this forum so I really hope someone can help me.
We have a server room with a pretty big (well, to household standards at least) cooler. It's a CIAT CL65A with Expair 8000 DDA, wonderful products of the marvelous french industry. It's a pretty simple system with a hell lot of useless electronics packed inside to make is impossible to fix without a "professional" that only the official dealer can send out. We are pretty low on budget and the compresson in one of the external units died silently during the hot summer. It's a 30 kW system but 15 kW should be sufficient for our needs. What I'd like to know whether it's possible to run the thing with one external unit at half power (even if it's not safe by the manufacturers' recommendations). The problem is that Unit 1 always reports a failure to the central controller system (well it's dead, no wonder) but I want to tweak it somehow and get rid of the failure report. I've found two wires in the docs that are called unit 1 failure. Any idea what would happen if I just disconnected them?
