Abstract: A controller for a refrigerated display case includes processing circuitry configured to receive operational data from multiple refrigerated display cases and an ambient temperature reading from an ambient temperature sensor. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a limp level for a rack that includes the multiple refrigerated display cases based on the operational data and the ambient temperature reading. The processing circuitry is configured to determine an operational cooling parameter for each of the multiple refrigerated display cases based on the limp level. The operational cooling parameter indicates an amount of cooling or a corresponding cooling operation for each refrigerated display case. The processing circuitry is configured to operate each of the multiple refrigerated display cases using the operational cooling parameter.

Abstract: A freezer case includes a refrigeration system and a controller. The controller is configured to store a plurality of setpoint instruction sets associated with a plurality of possible operating modes, select a current operating mode from the plurality of possible operating modes, assign a value for the superheat setpoint by executing the setpoint instruction set associated with the current operating mode, control the refrigeration system in accordance with the superheat setpoint.

Abstract: A diagnostics system for a display case includes a display case, a display device, and a remote controller, according to some embodiments. The display case includes a local controller, a refrigeration apparatus, and multiple sensors. The remote controller includes a processing circuit configured to receive diagnostics data from the local controller of the display case, according to some embodiments. The processing circuit is configured to identify one or more events using the diagnostics data and assign a rank to each of the one or more events. The processing circuit is configured to promote the rank of each of the one or more events based on an amount of time that each of the one or more events persists. The processing circuit is configured to operate the display device to notify a user regarding the one or more events and the rank of each event.
