SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Read and follow manufacturer instructions carefully. Follow all local electrical codes during installation. All wiring
must conform to local and national electrical codes. Improper
wiring or installation may damage thermostat.
Understand the signal words — DANGER, WARNING,
and CAUTION. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards,
which will result in severe personal injury or death.
WARNING signifies hazards that could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices,
which would result in minor personal injury or product and
property damage.
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert
symbol ( ). When this symbol is displayed on the unit and in
instructions or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal
injury. Installing, starting up, and servicing equipment can be
hazardous due to system pressure, electrical components, and
equipment location.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Fig. 3 — Opening Back Mounting Plate
Fig. 4 — Attaching Back Plate
Fig. 5 — One-to-One Control Connection
Fig. 6 — Group Controller Connection
The thermostat should be mounted:
• approximately 48 in. from the floor
• on a section of wall without water or drainage pipes
The thermostat should NOT be mounted:
• where it can be directly affected by the unit’s discharge
airflow
• close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door
leading to the outside
• near shelves or curtains that may restrict air movement
• near heat sources such as direct sunlight, heaters, dimmer
switches, and other electrical devices
INSTALLATION
Perform the following procedure to install the thermostat:
1. Turn off all power to the indoor unit.
WARNING
Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death. Before
installing thermostat, shut off all power to this equipment
during installation. There may be more than one power disconnect. Tag all disconnect locations to alert others not to
restore power until work is completed.
6. Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the slots provided on
the bottom of the controller to pop open the back mounting plate. See Fig. 3.
7. Provide a 1-in. by 1-in. square opening in the wall
where the controller will be mounted to accommodate
the control cable.
8. Attach the back mounting plate directly over the opening
using 2 screws, and route the control cable as shown in
Fig. 4.
CAUTION
Over-tightening the screw will cause deformation to the
rear cover and LCD damage.
2. If an existing thermostat is being replaced:
a. Remove existing thermostat from wall or unit.
b. Disconnect wires from existing thermostat. Do not
allow wires to fall back into the wall or unit.
c. Discard or recycle old thermostat.
CAUTION
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation.
Improper wiring or installation may damage the thermostat. Check to make sure wiring is correct before proceeding with installation or turning on unit.
3. Use 16 to 20 AWG (American Wire Gage), stranded
twisted pair shielded 2-core wiring. Be sure the distance
between the controller and the indoor units is not more
than 820 ft.
4. For exposed wall-hung or under-ceiling/floor units, provide a 1-in. by 1-in. square opening in the surface behind
the unit to route the shielded 2-core control cable, furred
in to connect the indoor unit display panel to the
controller.
5. For concealed ducted, high-static ducted, cassette, or vertical units, the shielded 2-core cable can be routed
through the plenum and the wall to connect the indoor
unit display panel and the controller.
9. Connect one end of the shielded 2-core control cable to
the indoor unit HA/HB terminal on the unit and other end
to the controller HA/HB terminal. Connect the shield/
drain conductor of the control wire to ground at the indoor unit as shown in Figs. 5 and 6; do not connect shield/
drain conductor at the controller. For connecting the controller to a single indoor unit see Fig. 5. For connecting
the controller to multiple indoor units see Fig. 6.

Temperature Setting — In AUTO, cooling, DRY, or
heating mode, press TEMP. UP or TEMP. DOWN to adjust the
temperature as shown in Fig. 11.
When adjusting the set temperature in AUTO mode, press
TEMP. UP or TEMP. DOWN and then the “Cool” icon blinks.
Then, press TEMP. UP or TEMP. DOWN to set the cooling
temperature in AUT O mode as shown in Fig. 12.
Setting the Mode — Pressing MODE once or more than
once sets functions in the sequence shown in Fig. 9.
IMPORTANT: When the wired controller is connected to
a heat pump system, AUTO mode is unavailable. Fan
speed cannot be adjusted in DRY mode.

The set temperature range for cooling and DRY mode on
the wired controller is 62
ºF to 86ºF.
The set temperature range for heating on the wired control-
ler is 54
ºF to 86ºF.
Automatic ON/OFF Settings — Press the TIMER
button to enter automatic-on settings. The screen displays the
timer, and the automatic-on icon is on as shown in Fig. 14.
Press TEMP. UP or TEMP. DOWN within 3 seconds to ad-
just the automatic-on time as shown in Fig. 15.
If you press OK or do not press any button within 3 seconds, the wired controller will confirm the set time and exit the
automatic-on/off setting status as shown in Fig. 16.
When the automatic-on time is set to a value other than 0.0H,
the automatic-on setting is valid and the IDU will be turned on
at the set time.
When the automatic-on time is set 0.0H, the automatic-on
setting is canceled.
Press TIMER twice on the main interface to enter automatic
off settings. The screen displays the timer, and the automaticoff icon is on.

0.5 hour. When the set automatic-on/off time is greater than
10 hours, the value will be increased or decreased in units of
1 hour.
NOTE: Automatic-on and automatic-off can be set at the
same time. When the automatic-on time is equal to the automatic-off time and the two are smaller than 10 hours, the
automatic-off time will be delayed for 0.5 hour. If the two
equal or exceed 10 hours but are less than 24 hours, the
automatic-off time will be delayed for 1 hour. If the two are
equal to 24 hours, the automatic-on time will be put forward
1 hour.
NOTE: After automatic-on or automatic-off is set, the automatic-on/off setting will be canceled when you press ON/
OFF to turn the unit on/off.
Automatic-off and automatic-on are set in the same way.
Swing Setting for Louvers — The swing function of
the wired controller is available when the connected IDU has
the vertical swing function.
When the IDU is on, press the SWING button to control
vertical swing as shown in Fig. 17.
Room Temperature Display — When the unit is on,
press ROOM TEMP. to view the indoor temperature as shown
in Fig. 19.
When the unit is off and in standby mode, the wired controller displays the indoor temperature by default as shown in
Fig. 20.
When the SWING button is pressed multiple times, it will
follow the cycle as shown in Fig. 18:
The swing function of the wired controller is invalid when
the IDU connected to the wired controller does not have the
vertical swing function. If you press the SWING button at that
time, the screen displays “OPERATION IS NOT AVAILABLE” for 2 seconds.
Locking the Controller — The locking function can
lock ON/OFF , mode, or temperature setpoint. Refer to Table

Indoor Unit Addressing — Each indoor unit must
have a unique address that can be set from 0-63 for proper
system operation.
• Indoor units can be addressed automatically in heat
pump systems. Dip switch “S6” in outdoor unit main
board to 00 (default set in factory) means auto addressing
for each indoor units. When the system is first powered
on, this auto addressing process can take approximately
6 minutes or more, depending on the number of indoor
units in the system.
• Indoor units can be addressed manually using remote
controllers. The whole system, outdoor units, indoor
units and MDC are included, and should be p owered on
when setting an address by remote controllers. If “FE”
displays on LED screen of the controller or display board
of indoor unit, there is no address for this unit. After setting all indoor units’ addresses, cut off the power supply
of indoor units and power on again to clear this error.
T o manually set indoor unit address, press and hold ROOM
TEMP and SWING together for 3 seconds to enter the following menu. It displays FE# 00 if there is no address for this indoor unit; otherwise it displays current address of the indoor
unit. Clicking TEMP.UP or TEMP.DOWN to change 00 to address number you want to set. Then press OK to confirm and
exit the setting interface.

Query Function
Press FAN and OK at the same time and hold for 3 seconds
to open the query function as shown in Fig. 28. The wired controller can query the number of connected IDUs and addresses,
