Space heating application by either the Daikin unit or by an auxiliary
boiler connected in the system. The decision whether either the
EBHQ* unit or the boiler will operate can be achieved by an auxiliary
contact or an EKCB* indoor controlled contact.
The auxiliary contact can e.g. be an outdoor temperature thermostat,
an electricity tariff contact, a manually operated contact, etc. See
"Field wiring configuration A" on page 10.
The EKCB* unit controlled contact (also called "permission signal for
the auxiliary boiler") is determined by the outdoor temperature
(thermistor located at the outdoor unit). See "Field wiring
configuration B" on page 10.
Bivalent operation is only possible for space heating operation, not
for the domestic water heating operation. Domestic hot water in such
an application is always provided by the domestic hot water tank
which is connected to the Daikin unit.
The auxiliary boiler must be integrated in the piping work and in the
field wiring according to the illustrations below.

Operation
■Configuration A
When the room thermostat requests heating, either the EBHQ*
unit or the boiler starts operating, depending on the position of
the auxiliary contact (A).
■Configuration B
When the room thermostat requests heating, either the EBHQ*
unit or the boiler starts operating, depending on the outdoor
temperature (status of "permission signal for the auxiliary
boiler").
When the permission is given towards the boiler, the space
heating operation by the EBHQ* unit will be automatically
switched off.
Make sure that auxiliary contact (A) has sufficient
differential or time delay so as to avoid frequent
changeover between the EBHQ* unit and the boiler. If
the auxiliary contact (A) is an outdoor temperature
thermostat, make sure to install the thermostat in the
shade, so that it is not influenced or turned ON/OFF
by the sun.
Configuration B
Make sure that the bivalent hysteresis [C-04] has
sufficient differential to avoid frequent changeover
between the EBHQ* unit and the boiler. As the outdoor
temperature is measured via the outdoor unit’s air
thermistor, make sure to install the outdoor unit in the
shade, so that it is not influenced by the sun.
Frequent switching may cause corrosion of the boiler
in an early stage. Contact the manufacturer of the
boiler.
■During heating operation of the EBHQ* unit, the unit
will operate so as to achieve the target leaving water
temperature as set on the user interface. When
weather dependent operation is active, the water
temperature is determined automatically depending
on the outdoor temperature.
During heating operation of the boiler, the boiler will
operate so as to achieve the target leaving water
temperature as set on the boiler controller.
Never set the target leaving water temperature set
point on the boiler controller above 55°C.
■Make sure to only have 1 expansion vessel in the
water circuit. An expansion vessel is already
premounted in the unit.
8.6. Application 6
Space heating with room thermostat application through floor heating
loops and fan coil units. The floor heating loops and fan coil units
require different operating water temperatures.
The floor heating loops require a lower water temperature in heating
mode compared to fan coil units. To achive these two set points, a
mixing station is used to adapt the water temperature according to
requirements of the floor heating loops. The fan coil units are directly
connected to the unit water circuit and the floor heating loops after
the mixing station. The control of this mixing station is not done by the
unit.
The operation and configuration of the field water circuit is the
responsibility of the installer.
Daikin only offers a dual set point control function. By this function
two set points can be generated. Depending on the required water
temperature (floor heating loops and/or fan coil units are required)
first set point or second set point can be activated.

NOTICE
Make sure to configure the DIP switch SS2-3 on the PCB
of the EKCB(H/X)* switch box correctly. Refer to
"12.2. Room thermostat installation configuration" on
page 21.
For configuration B: Make sure to configure the field
settings [C-02, C-03 and C-04] correctly. Refer to "Bivalent
operation" on page 32.
NOTICE
Make sure that return water to the EBHQ* heat exchanger
never exceeds 55°C.
For this reason, never put the target leaving water
temperature set point on the boiler controller above 55°C
and install an aquastat
(a)
valve in the return water flow of
the EBHQ* unit.
Make sure that the non-return valves (field supply) are
correctly installed in the system.
Make sure that the room thermostat (th) is not frequently
turned ON/OFF.
Daikin shall not be held liable for any damage resulting
from failure to observe this rule.
(a) The aquastat valve must be set for 55°C and must operate to close the return
water flow to the unit when the measured temperature exceeds 55°C. When the
temperature drops to a lower level, the aquastat valve must operate to open the
return water flow to the EBHQ* unit again.

INFORMATION
■The advantage of the dual set point control is that the
heat pump will/can operate at the lowest required
leaving water temperature when only floor heating is
required. Higher leaving water temperatures are only
required in case fan coil units are operating.
This results in a better performance of the heat pump.
■The hydraulic balance is very important. (outdoor unit
- heater kit (if applicable) - mixing station - FCU1...3)
INFORMATION
Manual permission towards the EBHQ* unit on the boiler.
In case only the EBHQ* unit should operate in space
heating mode, disable the bivalent operation via setting
[C-02].
In case only the boiler should operate in space heating
mode, increase the bivalent ON temperature [C-03] to
25°C.

Make sure that all accessories as mentioned in "4.2. Accessories
supplied with the indoor unit" on page 5 are available in the unit.
NOTICE
■The request signals for space heating can be
implemented in two different ways (installer choice).
- Thermo ON/OFF signal from room thermostat
- Status signal (active/not active) from the mixing
station
■It is the installers responsibility to make sure no
unwanted situations can occur (e.g. too high water
temperatures towards floor heating loops, etc.)
■Daikin does not offer any type of mixing station. Dual
set point control only provides the possibility to use
two set points.
■When only zone A requests heating, zone B will be
fed with water at a temperature equal to the first set
point.
This can lead to unwanted heating of zone B.
■When only zone B requests heating, the mixing
station will be fed with water at a temperature equal to
the second set point.
Depending on the control of the mixing station, the
floor heating loop can still receive water at a
temperature equal to set point of the mixing station.
■Be aware that the actual water temperature through
the floor heating loops depends on the control and
setting of the mixing station.

must be such that the current-carrying wires are tautened
before the earth wire is in case the power supply is pulled
loose from the stress relief.
■In wiring, make certain that prescribed wires are used, carry out
complete connections, and fix the wires so that outside forces
are not applied to the terminals.
CAUTION
1.In case the use of stranded conductor wires is
unavoidable for one reason or another, make sure to
install round crimp-style terminals on the tip.
Place the round crimp-style terminal on the wire up to
the covered part and fasten the terminal with the
appropriate tool.

Connection to a benefit kWh rate power supply
Electricity companies throughout the world work hard to provide
reliable electric service at competitive prices and are often authorized
to bill clients at benefit rates. E.g. time-of-use rates, seasonal rates,
Wärmepumpentarif in Germany and Austria, ...
This equipment allows for connection to such benefit rate power
supply delivery systems.
Consult with the electricity company acting as provider at the site
where this equipment is to be installed to know whether it is
appropriate to connect the equipment in one of the benefit kWh rate
power supply delivery systems available, if any.
When the equipment is connected to such benefit kWh rate power
supply, the electricity company is allowed to:
■interrupt power supply to the equipment for certain periods of
time;
■demand that the equipment only consumes a limited amount of
electricity during certain periods of time.
The indoor unit is designed to receive an input signal by which the
unit switches into forced off mode. At that moment, the outdoor unit
compressor will not operate.
Possible types of benefit kWh rate power supply
Possible connections and requirements to connect the equipment to
such power supply are illustrated in the figure below:
[d-01]=1
[d-01]=2
When the outdoor unit is connected to a benefit kWh rate power
supply, the voltage free contact of the receiver controlling the benefit
kWh rate signal of the electricity company must be connected to
clamps 17 and 18 of X2M (as illustrated in the figure above).
When parameter [d-01]=1 at the moment that the benefit kWh rate
signal is sent by the electricity company, that contact will open and
the unit will go in forced off mode
When parameter [d-01]=2 at the moment that the benefit kWh rate
signal is sent by the electricity company, that contact will close and
the unit will go in forced off mode
Type 1
This type of benefit kWh rate power supply is not interrupted.
Type 2
This type of benefit kWh rate power supply is interrupted after elapse
of time.
Type 3
This type of benefit kWh rate power supply is interrupted
immediately.
Connect the indoor unit to a normal kWh rate power supply
If the benefit kWh rate power supply is of type 2 or 3 (power
interruption of main power supply to outdoor unit), the indoor unit
should be connected to a normal kWh rate power supply to allow
continuous indoor control and operation (e.g., pump).
Disconnect terminal X6YA from X6Y and connect X6YB to X6Y.

12.5. Initial start-up at low outdoor ambient
temperatures
During initial start-up and when water temperature is low, it is
important that the water is heated gradually. Failure to do so may
result in cracking of concrete floors due to rapid temperature change.
Please contact the responsible cast concrete building contractor for
further details.
To do so, the lowest leaving water set temperature can be decreased
to a value between 15°C and 25°C by adjusting the field setting
[9-01] (heating set point lower limit). Refer to "12.9. Field settings" on
page 24.
INFORMATION
Heating between 15°C and 25°C is performed by the
backup heater only (EKMBUH unit) (if installed).

[1] Weather dependent set point
The weather dependent set point field settings define the parameters
for the weather dependent operation of the unit. When weather
dependent operation is active the water temperature is determined
automatically depending on the outdoor temperature: low outdoor
temperatures will result in warmer water and vice versa. During
weather dependent operation, the user has the possibility to shift up
or down the target water temperature by a maximum of 5°C. See the
operation manual for more details on weather dependent operation.

case of domestic water heating demand the
backup heater will not be available for space
heating (space heating will still be provided by the
heat pump).
When the priority field setting is set to ON (2),
domestic water heating performance of the system
might be decreased at low outdoor temperatures,
since in case of space heating demand the booster
heater will not be available for domestic water
heating. However domestic water heating by heat
pump will still be available.
NOTICE
When the priority field setting is set to OFF (0),
make sure that electrical power consumption does
not exceed supply limits.
Booster heater operation
Applies only to installations with a domestic hot water tank.
The operation of the booster heater can be enabled or limited
depending on outdoor temperature (TA), domestic hot water
temperature (T
) or operation mode of the heat pump.
DHW
■ [4-03] Booster heater operation: defines whether the optional
booster heater operation is enabled (1) or has certain
limitations (0/2/3/4).
Explanation of settings of [4-03]
Booster heater will/can only operate if domestic hot water mode
is activated (w).
■ [4-03]=0, then booster heater operation is only allowed
during "[2] Disinfection function" and "Powerful domestic
water heating" (see operation manual).
This setting is only recommended in case the capacity of the
heat pump can cover the heating requirements of the house
and domestic hot water over the complete heating season.
The result of this setting is that the domestic hot water will
never be heated by the booster heater except for
"[2] Disinfection function" and "Powerful domestic water
heating" (see operation manual).
INFORMATION
If the booster heater operation is limited ([4-03]=0)
and the ambient outdoor temperature TA is lower than
the field setting to which parameter [5-03] is set and
[5-02]=1, then the domestic hot water will not be
heated.
The consequence of this setting is that the domestic
hot water temperature (T

[6-00] on page 28 and [6-01] on page 28).
Results in the most optimum coverage of domestic hot water
heated by the pump.
■ [4-03]=3, then booster heater operation is the same as
setting 1, except that booster heater is OFF when the heat
pump is active in domestic hot water mode. The
consequence of this functionality is that setting [8-03] is not
relevant.
Results in optimum coverage of domestic hot water heated
by heat pump in relation with [8-04].
INFORMATION
■When setting [4-03]=1/2/3/4, the booster heater
operation can still be restricted by the schedule
timer as well. I.e., when booster heater operation
is preferred during certain period of the day. (See
operation manual)

CAUTION
For optional domestic hot water tank, the field
setting [4-03] shall be 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
INFORMATION
■[4-03]=3 (default), this setting is automatically
selected if the correct and complete wiring
connections between indoor unit and switch
box of the optional domestic hot water tank
are done BEFORE SS2-2 is set to ON.
[4-03]=0~4 activate the applicable logic and
field settings for EKHW*.
■[4-03]=5, this setting is automatically selected
in case there is incorrect field wiring between
indoor unit and switch box of the optional
domestic hot water tank (for example when
booster heater is not connected). The
required corrective action is described in
"Symptom 9: Field setting [4-03] and relation
to possible wrong tank temperatures" on
page 42.
■ [4-02] Space heating off temperature: outdoor temperature
above which space heating is turned off, to avoid
overheating.
■ [4-04] Freeze protection function: avoids freezing of the
water piping between home and unit. In case of low ambient
temperatures it will activate the pump and in case of low
water temperatures it will additionally activate the backup
heater (if installed).
Default freeze protection function takes into account freezing
of water piping which is insufficiently insulated.
Basically it means that the pump is activated whenever
ambient temperatures become close to freezing,
independently of the working temperature.
■ Only if EKMBUH is installed
[4-06] Backup heater emergency operation: defines whether
backup heater is allowed (1) or not allowed (0) during
emergency operation.
Emergency operation will startup backup heater operation
during certain outdoor malfunctions.
■ Only if EKMBUH is installed
[4-07] Backup heater second step: defines whether backup
heater second step is allowed (1) or not allowed (0).
In this way it is possible to limit the backup heater capacity.
[5] Equilibrium temperature and space heating priority
temperature
Equilibrium temperature — The 'equilibrium temperature' field
settings apply to operation of the backup heater.
When the equilibrium temperature function is enabled, operation of
the backup heater is restricted to low outdoor temperatures, i.e. when
the outdoor temperature equals or drops below the specified
equilibrium temperature. When the function is disabled, operation of
the backup heater is possible at all outdoor temperatures. Enabling
this function reduces the working time of the backup heater.
■ [5-00] Equilibrium temperature status: specifies whether the
equilibrium temperature function is enabled (1) or
disabled (0).
■ [5-01] Equilibrium temperature: outdoor temperature below
which operation of the backup heater is allowed.
Space heating priority temperature
— Applies only to installations
with a domestic hot water tank. — The 'space heating priority
temperature' field settings apply to operation of the 3-way valve and
the booster heater in the domestic hot water tank.
When the space heating priority function is enabled, it is assured that
the full capacity of the heat pump is used for space heating only
when the outdoor temperature equals or drops below the specified
space heating priority temperature, i.e. low outdoor temperature. In
this case the domestic hot water will only be heated by the booster
heater.
■ [5-02] Space heating priority status: specifies whether space
heating priority is enabled (1) or disabled (0).
■ [5-03] Space heating priority temperature: outdoor
temperature below which the domestic hot water will be
heated by the booster heater only, i.e. low outdoor
temperature.
INFORMATION
If the booster heater operation is limited ([4-03]=0)
and the ambient outdoor temperature T
is lower than
A
the field setting to which parameter [5-03] is set and
[5-02]=1, then the domestic hot water will not be
heated.
■ [5-04] Set point correction for domestic hot water
temperature: set point correction for the desired domestic hot
water temperature, to be applied at low outdoor temperature
when space heating priority is enabled. The corrected
(higher) set point will make sure that the total heat capacity of
the water in the tank remains approximately unchanged, by
compensating for the colder bottom water layer of the tank
(because the heat exchanger coil is not operational) with a
warmer top layer.

[7] DT for booster heater and dual set point control
DT for booster heater
Applies only to installations with a domestic hot water tank.
When the domestic hot water is heated and the domestic hot water
set point temperature (as set by the user) has been reached, the
booster heater will continue to heat the domestic hot water to a
temperature a few degrees above the set point temperature, i.e. the
booster heater OFF temperature. These extra degrees are specified
by the domestic hot water step length field setting. Correct setting
prevents the booster heater from repeatedly turning on and off (i.e.
chattering) to maintain the domestic hot water set point temperature.
Note: the booster heater will turn back on when the domestic hot
water temperature drops [7-01] (field setting) below the booster
heater OFF temperature.
INFORMATION
If the schedule timer for booster heater (see the operation
manual) is active, the booster heater will only operate if
allowed by this schedule timer.

[8] Domestic water heating mode timer
Applies only to installations with a domestic hot water tank.
The 'domestic water heating mode timer' field settings defines the
minimum and maximum domestic water heating times, minimum time
between two domestic water heating cycles by heat pump, and
booster heater delay time.
■ [8-00] Minimum running time: specifies the minimum time
period during which heat pump domestic water heating mode
should be activated, even when the target domestic hot water
temperature for heat pump (T
) has already been

reached.
■ [8-01] Maximum running time: specifies the maximum time
period during which heat pump domestic water heating mode
can be activated, even when the target domestic hot water
temperature for heat pump (T
) has not yet been

reached.
The actual maximum running time will automatically variate
between [8-01] and [8-01]+[8-04] depending on the outdoor
temperature. See figure in chapter "[8-04]" on page 31.
INFORMATION
Note that when the unit is configured to work with a
room thermostat (refer to "12.2. Room thermostat
installation configuration" on page 21), the maximum
running timer will only be taken into account when
there is a request for space heating or space cooling.
When there is no request for space heating or space
cooling, domestic water heating by the heat pump will
continue until the 'heat pump OFF temperature' (see
field settings [6] on page 28) is reached. When no
room thermostat is installed, the timer is always taken
into account.
INFORMATION
When dual set point control is enabled, heating/cooling
selection always has to be done on the user interface.
NOTICE
It is the responsibility of the installer to make sure no
unwanted situations can occur.
It is very important that the water temperature to the floor
heating loops never becomes too high in heating mode or
never too cold in cooling mode. Failure to observe this rule
can result in construction damage or discomfort. For
example in cooling mode condensation on the floor can
occur when water towards the floor heating loops is too
cold (dew point).
■ [8-02] Anti-recycling time: specifies the minimum required

INFORMATION
■By adapting the booster heater delay time versus the
maximum running time, an optional balance can be
found between the energy efficiency and the heat up
time.
■However, if the booster heater delay time is set too
high, it might take a long time before the domestic hot
water reaches its set temperature upon domestic hot
water mode request.
■The purpose of [8-03] is to delay the booster heater in
relation with the heat pump operation time in domestic
water heating mode.
■The setting [8-03] has only meaning if setting
[4-03]=1. Setting [4-03]=0/2/3/4 limits the booster
heater automatically in relation to heat pump
operation time in domestic water heating mode.
■Ta ke care that [8-03] is always in relation with the
maximum running time [8-01].

[9] Heating and cooling set point ranges
The purpose of this field setting is to prevent the user from selecting
a wrong (i.e., too hot or too cold) leaving water temperature. Thereto
the heating temperature set point range and the cooling temperature
set point range available to the user can be configured.
CAUTION
■In case of a floor heating application, it is important to
limit the maximum leaving water temperature at
heating operation according to the specifications of
the floor heating installation.
■In case of a floor cooling application, it is important to
limit the minimum leaving water temperature at
cooling operation (field setting of parameter [9-03]) to
16~18°C to prevent condensation on the floor.
■ [9-00] Heating set point upper limit: maximum leaving water
temperature for heating operation.
■ [9-01] Heating set point lower limit: minimum leaving water
temperature for heating operation.
■ [9-02] Cooling set point upper limit: maximum leaving water
temperature for cooling operation.
■ [9-03] Cooling set point lower limit: minimum leaving water
temperature for cooling operation.
■ [9-04] Overshoot setting: defines how much the water
temperature may rise above the set point before the
compressor stops. This function is only applicable in heating
mode.
Automatic setback function
Setback function provides the possibility to lower the water
temperature during space heating. The setback function can for
instance be activated during the night because the temperature
demands during night and day are not the same.

Bivalent operation
Applies only to installations with an auxiliary boiler (alternating
operation, parallel connected). The purpose of this function is to
determine —based on the outdoor temperature— which heating
source can/will provide the space heating, either the Daikin indoor
unit or an auxiliary boiler.
The field setting "bivalent operation" apply only the indoor unit space
heating operation and the permission signal for the auxiliary boiler.
When the "bivalent operation" function is enabled, the indoor unit will
stop automatically in space heating operation when the outdoor
temperature drops below "bivalent ON temperature" and the
permission signal for the auxiliary boiler becomes active.
When the bivalent operation function is disabled, the space heating
by indoor unit is possible at all outdoor temperatures (see operation
ranges) and permission signal for auxiliary boiler is always
disactivated.
■ [C-02] Bivalent operation status: defines whether bivalent
operation is enabled (1) or disabled (0).
■ [C-03] Bivalent ON temperature: defines the outdoor
temperature below which the permission signal for the
auxiliary boiler will be active (closed, KCR on EKRP1HB) and
space heating by indoor unit will be stopped.
■ [C-04] Bivalent hysteresis: defines the temperature difference
between bivalent ON temperature and bivalent OFF
temperature.

13. TESTRUNANDFINALCHECK
The installer is obliged to verify correct operation of the indoor and
outdoor unit after installation.
13.2. Test run operation (manual)
If required, the installer can perform a manual test run operation at
any time to check correct operation of cooling, heating and domestic
water heating.
13.1. Final check
Before switching on the unit, read following recommendations:
■When the complete installation and all necessary settings have
been carried out, close all panels of the outdoor unit and the
indoor unit.
■The service panel of the outdoor unit switch box and front panel
of the indoor unit may only be opened by a licensed electrician
for maintenance purposes.
DANGER
Never leave the unit unattended during installation or
servicing. When the service panel is removed live parts
can be easily touched by accident..
NOTICE
Note that during the first running period of the unit,
required power input may be higher than stated on the
nameplate of the unit. This phenomenon originates from
the compressor that needs elapse of a 50 hours run in
period before reaching smooth operation and stable power
consumption.
Pre-run checks
Items to check
Electrical wiring
Inter-unit wiring
Earth wire
■Is the wiring as mentioned on the wiring
diagram?
■Make sure no wiring has been forgotten and
that there are no missing phases or reverse
phases.
■Is the unit properly earthed?
■Is the wiring between units connected in
series correct?
■Are any of the wiring attachment screws
loose?
■Is the insulation resistance at least 1 MΩ?
- Use a 500 V mega-tester when measuring
insulation.
- Do not use a mega-tester for low-voltage
circuits.
■Is setting [E-02] properly set?
- No EKMBUH backup heater installed
(standard)
EKCBX: [E-02] = 0
EKCBH: [E-02] = 16
- If a EKMBUH backup heater is installed
EKCBX: [E-02] = 13
EKCBH: [E-02] = 29
Changing the settings is only possible in the
first 3 minutes after power ON.
Procedure
1Push the z button 4 times so the t icon will be displayed.
2Depending on the indoor unit model, heating operation, cooling
operation or both must be tested as follows (when no action is
performed, the user interface will return to normal mode after 10
seconds or by pressing the z button once):
•To test the heating operation push the h/c button so the h
icon is displayed. To start the test run operation press the
y button.
•To test the cooling operation push the h/c button so the c
icon is displayed. To start the test run operation press the
y button.
•To test the domestic water heating operation push the v
button. The test run operation will start without pressing the
y button.
3The test run operation will end automatically after 30 minutes or
when reaching the set temperature. The test run operation can
be stopped manually by pressing the z button once. If there are
misconnections or malfunctions, an error code will be displayed
on the user interface. Otherwise, the user interface will return to
normal operation.
4To resolve the error codes, see "16.3. Error codes" on page 43.
INFORMATION
■To display the last resolved error code, push the z
button 1 time. Push the z button again 4 times to
return to normal mode.
■It is not possible to perform a test run if a forced
operation from the outdoor unit is in progress. Should
forced operation be started during a test run, the test
run will be aborted.
DANGER
Never leave the unit unattended with an open front panel
during test run.
CAUTION
To protect the compressor, make sure to turn on the power
supply 6 hours before starting operation.

■maximum domestic hot water set point is limited to 60°C,
■tank temperature sensor reads out wrong values.
POSSIBLECAUSESCORRECTIVEACTIONS
When dip switch SS2-2 is switched
to ON, the unit automatically tries to
detect the correct tank connections
(booster heater, thermal
protector,...). In case of wrong field
wiring or wrong tank type
connection, the automatic detection
will result in wrong values for [4-03]
and related tank temperatures.
Check and correct if necessary all
field wiring between indoor unit and
tank.
RESET
•Power OFF the indoor unit and
switch SS2-2 to OFF.
•Power ON the indoor unit. Since
