On the rigmaster you can pretty much just set the temperature like a normal indoor thermostat and it will turn the ac on/off depending on what the temp is inside the truck. Prime uses bunk heaters so the rigmaster temperature settings won't ever make the truck any warmer. I kind of liked the rigmaster controls because you can just set the temp and leave it, thermoking temp settings don't really do anything. The rigmaster does run kind of loud though and maybe isn't as reliable and has no national network for repairs.

thanks. Yeah I know they have em set to only push out cold cool air. I just didn't know if I'd have to set it to like ac or what. I saw the mode button and it wasn't doing jack. as far as how loud it actually seemed quieter then my thermo king I had. And that pos was always on the frits, just like the truck too. 3rd time in the shop in less then a month...crossing my fingers this newer trucks nicer to me.

Trust me my Rig master is Nice but it acts up. But the AC mode works when you set the temperature to where you need it and the bunk heater just heats up the air in the truck. Overall a good unit just wish the Auto climate control used heat.
