1. Introduction
The Cabin Control Display (CCD) is the user interface/controller for the Dynasys Auxiliary Power and Climate Control Unit
(APCCU). The Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is a self contained, stand alone power generator for use with class 8 trucks
which provides both 120VAC power for the CCU as well as 12VDC recharging for the Truck’s batteries while in operation.
The Climate Control Unit (CCU) [or HVAC system] provides climate control for the truck bunk. Additional items or
features include optional single duplex 120VAC convenience outlet, optional Power Distribution Center (PDC) with
dedicated circuit breakers. The Dynasys system uses the truck’s diesel fuel supply and 12VDC battery source. This
system does not require the usage of the trucks cooling and A/C system. The Dynasys APCCU provides significant fuel
savings, reduction of truck engine wear, reliability, increased driver comforts, and legislative compliance.
The Cabin Control Display mounts inside the truck cabin and provides the user with convenient interface controls for
cabin temperature, monitor APU engine activities and outputs, Service History, Active/Historical Alarm Faults, and
Automatic Starting Controls. On the back of the CCD, the 6 pin connector houses the cabin temperature sensor and the
12 pin connector is for Power and a CAN Bus connection to the APCCU control module. This CAN Bus connection is the
communication link between the Display and Controller but also allows for the system to be updated with any future
software updates and monitor the APCCU’s full performance status for diagnostic purposes.
2. Display Unit
The Cabin Control Display is the interface for the operator to
control the Dynasys APCCU. There are 8 buttons on the
display. All of them are soft buttons meaning that their
functionality will vary based on which screen you are on or
what conditions exist so a quick visual guide at the bottom of
the screen indicates what the button will do for each screen.
The 4 navigation buttons in the middle are generally used to
move up/down/left/right on the screen most of the time. If
their functionality is not for navigating the screens, then that
alternate functionality will be displayed for the operator.
The following sections describe how the Cabin Control Display controls for the Inactive Screen, Main Screen, Menu
Screen, Engine Status Screen, Service Screen, Active Alarms Screen, Alarm History Screen, Password & Secure Settings
Screen, and About Screen.

Auto-Start Indicators – The list of any Auto Start option(s) that are currently enabled will show up on the
left side of the screen. The Auto Start’s text will change to RED when that specific Auto Start is Active and
requiring the APU to run.
Cabin HVAC Controls Indicator – The actual Cabin Temperature is displayed in the center of
the screen for both the Active and Inactive Mode screens. Just to the right of the displayed
value (Active Mode) is the setpoint temperature for the system as well as the heat(flame),
cool(snowflake), or dual (both) symbols. Just above the Setpoint Temp, you will see the screen
display either “Manual” for Manual HVAC Modes, or “Auto” for Auto Start HVAC Modes. The
Heat symbol turns red when the heater(s) are On and gray when the heater(s) are Off. Likewise the Cool symbol will
turn blue when the A/C is On and gray when A/C is Off.
Fan Control Indicator – The 10 segment bar graph below the Cabin Temperature is the Fan
Speed from minimum speed(left) to maximum speed(right). The larger white bars indicate the
Users current Fan Speed Command for the system. The CCU will use this as the desired fan
control speed unless forced or limited to different speed based on the Active Heating or Cooling HVAC mode. A smaller
portion of the bars will fill in a different color to indicate the current fan speed setting driving the fan. That portion of
the bars will be Green if actual fan speed is below the User Speed, Gray if equal to the User Speed, or Red if above the
User Speed.

Cabin Te perature – Set and Configured from the Main Screen when the Engine is Off, this starts the APU if the Cabin
Temperature drifts away from the defined Setpoint Temperature more than the defined Heat/Cool Threshold
differential (after a set delay time). It will run Heating or Cooling to bring the Cabin Temperature back to the Setpoint
Temperature. Once there Heating and Cooling will turn off and the Blower will run for the defined Fan Continuation
Duration time at which time the system will turn back off.
Low Battery – Set and Configured in the Auto Start Settings Menu, this starts the APU when required to maintain a
minimum voltage level for the truck battery. If the Battery voltage is below the threshold for the Low Battery Auto
Start can be (adjustable from 11.5 to 13.0 VDC [12V Battery] or 23.0 to 26.0 VDC [future 24V Battery option]) for longer
than the defined Low Battery Timer, the APU will start up to charge the battery for a pre defined duration. If the Battery
Voltage does not begin to increase sufficiently after starting, the APU will shutoff, pause for a few seconds, and then the
APU will try starting and charging the battery again for up to the maximum define Battery Charging Attempts. If
unsuccessful the APU will stop trying and the Battery Charging Failure Alarm will turn on.
17. Shore Power Mode
The APCCU enters Shore Power Mode whenever shore power (external 120VAC source) is connected to the system. If
the APU is running and shore power is connected, then the APU engine will turn off, the Main Screen will display the
Shore Power Icon, all Auto Starts are ignored, and Manual Temperature control is enabled. When connected to shore
power only Heater 1 is allowed for current limitation reasons. From the secured settings the operator can enable or
disable the ability to manually re start the APU engine while in Shore Power Mode. When shore power is disconnected
the APCCU will return to Active Mode with no HVAC active and Auto Starts are functional.
18. Truck Ignition Interlock
The APCCU is interlocked with the Truck Ignition switch to prevent the APU from running while the truck engine is on.
There are two exceptions; the Low Battery Auto Start and Coolant Temperature Auto Start functions are the only
instances that will allow the APU to run while the truck is on. If the truck engine is on, the Main Screen will display the
Truck Ignition Icon and prevent the APU from being Manually Started.
19. E-STOP Feature
The APCCU is programmed with an available E STOP feature. Press and hold the Engine Button for at least 2 seconds
(regardless of the Engine or Buttons operational state) to enter the E STOP mode. This forces the engine to immediately
shut down and locks it Off while E STOP is active and any Auto Start conditions that were Active will be deactivated.
When E STOP mode is no longer needed the operator must press and hold the Engine Button again for at least 2 seconds
to deactivate E STOP mode. Normal operation of Manual Start and all of the Auto Start options to start the engine are
then allowed again.

20. Engine Controls
The APU Engine is controlled by the APCCU. In Manual Control the operator can press the Engine “Manual Start” button
to turn the APU Engine On and the Engine “Manual Stop” button to turn the APU Engine Off. The APU Engine can also
be started by one of the Auto Start functions and after running its pre determined time will turn the APU Engine back
off. While an Auto Start function is active, the APU Engine button can be used to toggle Engine Mode between Manual
and Auto (If active). The Truck Ignition input and Shore Power connected input can force the APU Engine Off when not
needed. Below is a state diagram for operation of the Engine Modes. The Button Text for the current state in the
diagram is shown in the square brackets [].

Other Application Notes:
•There’s a 1 second delay from powerup before functionality starts (able to reflash before program locks up)
•There’s a 60 second delay from powerup for all Battery Monitoring conditions (faults & autostarts)
•Settings from Display to CCU are handshake/repeated, so the CCU implements time lock (1 2s) on mode changes
before temperature changes are allowed.
•Pull Ups for Digital Inputs are only ON while the APCCU LED’s are on.
•System is designed to run between 40 to 95 degF for a cabin temperature, and can Read between 50 to 140 degF.
