  • The following pictograms are used in the text.

WARNING

  • Consult your dealer or a professional contractor to install the unit.
  • Installation work should be performed properly according to this installation manual.
  • Be sure to use accessories and parts for installation work.
  • Install the unit properly to a place with strength to hold the weight.
    If the place is not strong enough, the unit may drop and cause injury.
  • Be sure to have the electrical wiring work done by electrical installer, and use exclusive circuit.
  • Shut OFF the main power source before starting electrical work.
    Otherwise, it could result in electric shocks, break-down or malfunction.
  • Do not modify the unit.
  • Be sure to turn OFF the power circuit breaker before repairing/inspecting the unit.
    Repairing/inspecting the unit with the power circuit breaker turned ON could cause electric shocks or injury.
  • Do not install the unit inappropriate environment or where gas could generate, in, accumulate or leak.
    If the unit is used at places where air contains dense oil mist, steam, organic solvent vapor, corrosive gas (ammonium,
    sulfuric compound, acid, etc) or where acidic or alkaline solution, special spray, etc. are used, it could cause electric rioration of its performance or corrosion.
  • Do not install the unit where water vapor is generated excessively or condensation occurs.
  • Do not use the unit in a place where it gets wet, such as laundry room.
  • Do not operate the unit with wet hands. It could cause electric shocks.
  • Do not wash the unit with water. Use the cables for wiring, and connect them securely with care to protect electronic parts from external forces.
  • When installing the unit at a hospital, telecommunication facility, etc., take measures to suppress electric noises. It could cause malfunction or breakdown due to hazardous effects on the inverter, private power generator, high-frequency medical equipment, radio communication equipment, etc.

    Receiver

    Control plural indoor units with one remote control
    Up to 16 indoor units can be connected.

    1. Connect the XY terminal with 2 cores wire. As for the size, refer to the following note.
    2. For Packaged air-conditioner series, set the indoor unit address with SW2 on the indoor unit PCB from [0] to [F] so as not to duplicate.

    For the shop series
    For VRF series, set the indoor unit address with SW1, SW2 and SW5-2 on the indoor unit PCB from [000] to [127] so as not to duplicate.

    For the building air-conditioner and gas heat pump series
    Set the indoor unit and outdoor unit numbers by manually specifying the addresses.
    Use the rotary switchs SW1 and SW2 provided on the indoor unit PCB (printed circuit board) to set the indoor unit numbers so that they are not duplicated.

    Master/Slave setting when using plural remote control
    Up to two receivers can be installed in one indoor unit group.

    Wireless remote control’s operable area
    Standard reachable area of the signal [condition] lluminance at the receiver: 300lux (when no liahtina is installed within 1m of the receiver in an ordinary office.)

    Correlation between illuminance at the receiver and reachable area of the signal in a plain view. The drawing in the right shows the correlation between the reachable area of the signal and illuminance at the receiver when the wireless remote control is operated at 1.0m high under the condition of ceiling height of 2.4m. When the illuminance becomes double, the area is narrowed down to two thirds.

    Installation tips when several receivers are installed close minimum distance between the indoor units which can avoid cross communication is 5m under the condition of 300lux of illuminance at the receiver. (When no lighting is installed within 1m of the receiver in an ordinary office)

    Backup switch
    A Backup switch is provided on the receiver. Even when the operation from the wireless remote control is not possible (due to flat batteries, control lost, or control failure), still it possible to operate as temporary means. Press the switch directly when operating it.

    1. The air-conditioner starts the operation with the condition of auto mode, 23°C of set point, high fan speed and horizontal louver position.
    2. The air-conditioner stops the operation when the switch is pressed when in operation.

    Cooling test run operation

    • After safety confirmation, turn on the power
    • Transmit a cooling operation command with the wireless remote control unit, while the backup switch on the receiver is depressed.
    • If the backup switch on the receiver is pressed during a test run, it will end the test run.
    • If you cannot operate the unit properly during a test run, please check wiring by consulting with inspection guides.

    How to read the 2-digit display
    On the receiver of a wireless kit, a two-digit (7-segment) display is provided.

    1. An indication will be displayed for one hour after power on.
    2. An indication will be displayed for 3.5 seconds after transmitting a “STOP” command from the wireless remote control or the operation of the backup switch to stop the unit.
    3. An indication appearing in (1) or (2) above will go off as soon as the unit starts operation.
    4. When there are no error records to indicate, addresses of all the connected units are displayed.
    5. When there are some error records remaining, the error records are displayed.
    6. Error records can be cleared by transmitting a “STOP” command from the wireless remote control, while the backup button is pressed.
