This is getting way too complicated.
For the problem situations I mentioned in my earlier post (I believe about the same problem as the OP was addressing), I needed more air conditioning run time to reduce the humidity in our RV's interior air ... but it wasn't warm enough inside the RV or outside the RV to merit running the air conditioning as much as needed to get out the excess moisture in the interior air ... hence we would have been too cold (even though dryer, humidity-wise) if we had kept running only the air conditioner.
So, we just ran the propane furnace at the same time to add just enough heat to keep us comfortable while the air conditioner was running and reducing the humidity. We ran both at the same time - NOT alternating back and forth between the air conditioner and furnace. It worked simply and very well.
