MultiFlex CUB
The MultiFlex Condensing Unit Board (CUB) is a
“smart” input/output board designed to control single con-
densing units. A single condensing unit is a self-contained
compressor and condenser bearing unit which controls
refrigeration in a single case line-up or walk-in cooler.

compressor and condenser bearing unit which controls
refrigeration in a single case line-up or walk-in cooler.
The MultiFlex CUB uses the same general hardware
configuration as a MultiFlex 168AO. It is equipped with a
processor and extra memory to allow it to control com-
pressors, condensers, refrigeration, and defrost for a single
condensing unit using on-board I/O and control algo-
rithms.

MultiFlex RTU (BX and CX Only)
Similar in design to the MultiFlex combination input/
output boards, the MultiFlex RTU board is designed spe-
cifically for operating package rooftop HVAC units as part
of an E2 BX or REFLECS BCU building control system.
The MultiFlex RTU is designed to be a replacement for the
previous generation ARTC, and is 100% compatible with
all legacy E2 BX and BCU systems.

The MultiFlex RTU is designed to be a replacement for the

all legacy E2 BX and BCU systems.
The MultiFlex RTU board has 16 analog inputs, 8
relay outputs and 4 analog outputs. Most of these I/O
points are reserved for sensors and input devices required
to read environmental data (such as space and supply air
temperature) and control all output devices that control the
environment (such as heat/cool stages and dampers). Both
auxiliary inputs can be configured for a variety of sensor
types including any type of linear sensor. For linear sen-
sors, the auxiliary inputs can be configured as Satellites.
By doing this, the minimum and maximum voltage and
minimum and maximum Engineering Unit parameters are
user configurable for these inputs. The RTU relay outputs
are rated for line voltage (240VAC).

The RTU board controls the rooftop unit directly with
its built-in heating, cooling, and humidity control algo-

interface with an E2 BX or BCU to control the store envi-
ronment in zones and pass along logging and alarm infor-
mation.

MultiFlex Rooftop Control Board
(RCB) (BX and CX Only)
The MultiFlex Rooftop Control Board (RCB)
(P/N 810-3062) is a rooftop HVAC control board for use
either as a stand-alone controller or in zone control appli-
cations using a Emerson Retail Solutions E2 BX building

sensors).
The RCB is an improved version of the MultiFlex
RTU. The RCB has sixteen fully configurable analog and
digital input points, whereas the RTU has only eight
inputs, two of which are configurable. The RCB has four
analog outputs for use in controlling variable speed fans,
economizers or modulating heating and/or cooling valves,
whereas the RTU has only two analog outputs for use only
with VS fans and economizers. The RCB also features a
more sophisticated HHT interface and updated algorithms
for controlling heating, cooling, dehumidification, and air
quality.

The MultiFlex RCB-P (pulse control board P/N 810-

logic for controlling heating and cooling functions.
