Abstract
The invention is directed to regulating the conditioned space of an environment-controlled transport unit by identifying the product being conveyed as cargo in the conditioned space of a transport unit. A user can identify the cargo by selecting it from a menu of cargo identifiers. Once the cargo is identified, an environment control system retrieves from memory environment-control parameters as a function of the identified cargo, and regulates the environment of the conditioned space based upon the environment-control parameters.
