The following describes the HVAC control head functionality upon receiving the remote start active serial data message and a power mode status is set to off/awake. The outside air temperature (OAT) sensor on automatic systems, is utilized to determine the moding of the following features: Blower Mode (Bi-level, Floor, Defrost, Recirc and Rear Defrost. These features are determined by the intake air temperature (IAT) during activation sequence and are maintained for the duration of engine run time. Calibratable temperatures are utilized to provide low, mid and high temperature ranges for the selectable feature. Blower and mode have the range to select any valid feature positions. When the remote start active serial data is received, ignition-OFF loop HVAC algorithms will act the same as if a run power mode was received, i.e. re-calibration, afterblow, ignition-OFF motor positioning etc. The OFF timer and the ignition ON timer have the functionality as in the Run mode.
