Remote Thermostat NO to operate us-
ing the infrared remote controller. See (Table 6, pg. 32) for details. (Remote  ermostat YES means the unit will be controlled by a wall thermostat.)
Handheld remote operation
When power is  rst applied to the control or a er a power outage there is a three minute delay before the compressor or electric heat will energize.  is is to protect the unit from short cycling.
Pointing the remote
When entering commands into the remote, make sure it is pointed toward the casse e’s infrared receiver window (see Figure 34, Page 33 ).  e casse e will respond with a beep indicating that it has successfully re­ceived the transmi ed information.
Synchronization
There may be occasions when the remote and the casse e’s main control board mode synchronization or are not in the same mode.  is can happen if commands are entered into the remote, but it is not pointed at the casse e.
Alternatively, hold the POWER/SEND • bu on for two seconds. All of the optional remote’s se ings will be transmi ed to the casse e.  e casse e will respond with a beep, indicating that it has successfully received the transmi ed information.
Temperature indication
 e room temperature displayed on the re­mote is the temperature at the remote.  e microprocessor control located in the casse e does not read the remote’s temperature  it uses a sensor located in the return air of the casse e.
Therefore, the warming or cooling of the remote alone will not e ect the operation of the Casse e.  e Casse e will react to its local temperature sensing element and the setpoint selected and transmi ed by the remote.
Transmission limits
 e remote has a useful transmission distance approximately twenty (20) feet when perpen­dicular to the face of the Casse e. However, this distance will vary and decrease when the angle of transmission is not perpendicular.  is distance may also vary depending on the lighting in the room.
Hibernate mode
If there is no activity on the remote for ten minutes, it will enter a hibernate mode and the display will go dark. While in hibernate mode, pressing any bu on will awaken the remote.  e remote will return to the mode it was in prior to entering hibernate mode.
To re-synchronize:
Enter any command into the remote • while pointing it at the casse e’s infrared receiver window.

NOTICE
Cassette operation can be controlled through either a wall thermostat or an optional infrared handheld controller.
To select control method, refer to DIP switch options, Table 6, Page 32 .
Cooling-only units, Model CACH
Cooling only units require an 18 AWG minimum low-voltage interconnecting wires between the indoor and outdoor units. If the casse e controller is con gured for wall ther­mostat operation, then a wiring connection is also required between the air handler and wall thermostat. Refer to low-voltage interconnect diagram, Figure 43, Page 51 , for low-voltage connections.
NOTICE
Terminal “W” is required for units with electric heat only.
Terminal “C” may not be needed on some thermostats.
 e casse e controller or wall thermostat will switch the outdoor unit on and o through the yellow, “Y,” low-voltage terminal.

For optional wall thermostat operation, 24 Vac can also be measured across low-voltage ter­minals “G” and “C” of the casse e.
Heat Pump Units, Model CAHH/ CAHK
Heat pump units require an 18 AWG mini­mum low-voltage interconnecting wire be­tween the indoor unit and outdoor units. If the casse e controller is con gured for wall thermostat operation, then a wiring connec­tion is also required between the air handler and wall thermostat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Air Handlers
Q:  e condenser will not start although
the indoor unit appears normal. What should I do?
A: At the indoor thermostat, make sure that
the control is in cooling and the setpoint temperature is below room temperature. Next, using a Voltmeter, check for 24V across the yellow (Y) and brown (C) wires. If 24V is present then check for wiring breaks or improper connections between the indoor and outdoor units.
A: EMI condensers are equipped with a
manual reset high-pressure switch. It is located on the high side of the system usually on back panel above service valves. To reset, push the red bu on in. If the switch was tripped there will be a click when it resets.
A:  e casse e air handlers are equipped
with an internal condensate pump with a high level safety switch. If the condensate reaches a critical level or if power is lost to the indoor unit, the safety circuit will open and low Volt power to the con­denser (terminal “Y1”) will be removed.  e condensate pump should be checked for obstruction.  e condensate pump assembly can be removed through the side access panel. A er removal, inspect the drain pan to determine if the con­densate is not being removed properly from the unit. Inspect all drain lines to ensure there is no blockage preventing condensate removal.
Q: How long will the fan run? A: While the unit is in cooling or heating
and auto fan mode is selected, the fan will cycle with the call for cooling or heating. When the room temperature reaches setpoint temperature, the heat/cool call is dropped.  e fan will then stay on for an additional 60-second to purge unit of any residual energy. Placing the fan selection switch on the wall mounted thermostat in the ON position will cause
the fan to run continuously regardless of the set point temperature.
Q: What causes my indoor unit to freeze-
up?
A: Air handler freeze up is usually the
symptom of another problem.  e Cas­se e air handler is equipped with freeze protection to prevent freeze up from occurring. If freeze up does occur then check the following.
Check that the freeze sensor inserted – fully and snug in the coil  ns. If not another location may need to be selected. Be careful not to insert the sensor directly into the coil tube rather insert the sensor between two tubes.
Check the indoor air  lter. It should – be clean and free of dirt. A dirty  lter will reduce airflow and efficiency. Also check that the coil is clean. If the coil is dirty then it should be cleaned using an appropriate coil cleaner or mild detergent.
Is the equipment being operated in – cooling mode when outdoor tem­peratures are below 35°F (2°C)? If it is, then the condenser should be fitted with low ambient control so that the proper system pressures are maintained.
Does the system have the proper – refrigerant charge? A system low on refrigerant can cause air handlers freeze-up. To check system charge you will need to contact a quali ed refrigeration service technician. Refrigerant charge information can be found in IOM for the outdoor condensing unit.
Q:  e system has just been installed us-
ing an EMI indoor unit and a non-EMI condenser.  ere is no display and the unit will not operate.

Frequently Asked Questions (continued)
A: EMI air handlers are manufactured with a
low-voltage transformer installed. When connecting an EMI air handler to a non­EMI condenser, check to ensure that there is no 24v control transformer in the outdoor unit. Only one transformer is required. If both the indoor unit and outdoor unit contain a transformer, one must be removed from the system.
