Abstract: A single package, wall mount air conditioner including a cabinet, an evaporator coil assembly, a condenser coil assembly, and a theft deterrent system. The theft deterrent system including metal straps securing the coil assemblies to the cabinet and impeding their removal from the cabinet. The straps having boxed cross-sections and being attached by specialty fasteners requiring a non-standard tool to remove, wherein the heads of the fasteners are shielded to only permit the axial access required by the tool. The theft deterrent system further including a sensor configured to monitor a condition of the air conditioner, wherein the condition is indicative of an attempt to remove the coil assemblies from the cabinet, and to communicate an alarm signal through a speaker or to a remote monitoring station if the condition occurs. The sensor may include one or more of a plunger-type switch, a vibration sensor, or a refrigerant monitoring sensor.

Abstract: A method of controlling operation of a pair of two-stage air conditioners. The method monitors a temperature of an area served by the air conditioners; activates a first stage of a first or lead air conditioner when the temperature rises above a first set point temperature; activates a first stage of a second or lag air conditioner when the temperature rises above a second set point temperature; activates a second stage of the first air conditioner only if the temperature remains above the second set point temperature beyond a first selected time period; and activates a second stage of the second air conditioner only if the temperature remains above the second set point temperature beyond a second selected time period. Neither of the air conditioners is operated in their less efficient second stages if both air conditioners are not first operating in their high efficiency first stages so that the entire cooling requirements of the area served by the air conditioners is primarily served by the first high efficiency stage of one or both the air conditioners.

Abstract translation: 一种控制一对两级空调的运转的方法。 该方法监测空调服务区域的温度; 当温度升高到高于第一设定点温度时，启动第一或第一空调的第一阶段; 当温度升高到高于第二设定点温度时，激活第二级或滞后型空调的第一级; 只有当温度保持高于超过第一选定时间段的第二设定点温度时才启动第一空调的第二阶段; 并且只有当温度保持高于第二设定点温度超过第二选定时间段时才激活第二空调的第二阶段。 如果两个空调都没有首先在高效率的第一阶段运行，这两个空调都不能运行在较低效率的第二阶段，以便由空调所服务的区域的整个冷却要求主要由第一高效率阶段 一个或两个空调。
