I may not understand your wording correctly, so please forgive me if I've interpreted it wrong, but the controller only works as a switch on the active wire for the hot and cold circuits.
ie for each of the heating and cooling circuits, you have an active wire going in, and an active wire going out (on to your heater/cooler) and the neutral wire connects directly to the neutral wire on its way into the unit.
The only neutral wire connected to the unit is the on that provides the unit itself with power.
If this is what you meant by "duplex" then that's cool, but I've seen electricians wire these up wrong (they ignored the wiring diagram) and if others read this thread, it would be a shame if they got the wrong idea.
As the previous poster (sorry, can't check the name in my mobile) said, it has LEDs to show which circuit is active, and has a compressor delay function built into the cooling programming (mine is set to 9minutes).
And what code said is the overriding rule for anything electrical, if in doubt call in a professional.
