1-1-1 COOLING CAPACITY CONTROL
A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit will usually perceive difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature, and controls the operation frequency of the compressor. * If the room temperature is 6.0°C higher than a set temperature,
the compressor operation frequency will attain to maximum performance.
* If the
room temperature is 1.0°C lower than a set temperature, the compressor
will be stopped. * When the room temperature is between +6.0°C to -1.0°C of the setting temperature,
the compressor frequency is controlled within the range shown in Table1. However, the maximum frequency is limited in the range shown in Fig.1 based on the fan speed mode and the outdoor temperature.

AMP Air Conditioning
www.ampair.co.uk | sales@ampair.co.uk
When the air conditioner is set to the Auto mode by remote controller, operation starts in the optimum mode from among the Heating, Cooling, and Monitoring mode. During operation, the optimum mode is automatically switched in accordance with temperature changes. The temperature can be set between 18°C and 30°C in 0.5°C (wireless and 2WIRE remote controller) Or 1.0°C (3WIRE remote controller) steps.
When operation starts, indoor fan and outdoor fan are operated for around 1 minutes.

www.ampair.co.uk | sales@ampair.co.uk
The most proper opening of the electronic expansion valve is calculated and controlled under the present operating condition based on the following values. The compressor frequency, the temperatures detected by the discharge temperature sensor and the outdoor temperature sensor.
The pulse range of the electronic expansion valve control is 52 ~ 480 pulses (Cooling) and 52 ~ 480 pulses (Heating).
At the time of supplying the power to the outdoor unit, the initialization of the electroni expansion valve is operated (528 pulses are input to the closing direction).
1-10. TEST OPERATION CONTROL
With Wired Remote Controller
Touch the [Test run] in the “Maintenance” screen.
(Installer password* is required.)
The “Test Run” screen is displayed. Touch [OK] to return to the Maintenance screen, and start the test run. The test run will automatically end is approximately 60 min. If you wish to cancel the test run before it is complete, return to the “Monitor Mode screen”, and touch the On/Off button.
*If the password has been changed from the default setting “0000”, please contact the installer.
c
With Wireless Remote Controller
Under the condition where the air conditioner runs, press the TEST RUN button, and the test operation control mode will appear. During test running, the Operation LED and Timer LED of the air conditioner body blinks simultaneously. Set the test operation mode, and the compressor will continue to run regardless of whether the room temperature sensor detects. The test operation mode is released if 60 minutes have passed after setting up the test operation.

When the outdoor temperature is lower than 0°C and the all operation mode has been stopped for 30 minutes, power is applied to the compressor and the compressor is heated. (By heating the compressor, warm air is quickly discharged when operation is started.) When operation was started and when the outdoor temperature rises to 25°C or greater, preheating is ended.

1. DISCHARGE GAS TEMPERATURE OVERRISE PREVENTION CONTROL
The discharge gas thermosensor (discharge thermistor : Outdoor side) will detect discharge gas temperature.
When the discharge temperature becomes higher than Temperature ,the compressor frequency is decreased 20rps, and it continues to decrease the frequency for 20rps every the temperature becomes l
ower than Temperature .
When the discharge temperature becomes lower than Temperature , the control of the compressor frequency is released.
When the discharge temperature becomes higher than Temperature ,the compressor is stopped and the indoor unit LED starts blinking.

2. CURRENT RELEASE CONTROL
The compressor frequency is controlled so that the outdoor unit input current does not exceeds the current limit value that was set up with the outdoor temperature. The compressor frequency returns to the designated frequency of the indoor unit at the time when the frequency becomes lower than the release value.

AMP Air Conditioning
www.ampair.co.uk | sales@ampair.co.uk
The unit automatically sets the static pressure.
This setting can be used by the function setting 26.
The static pressure is calculated by the input current and voltage of the motor and the return air temperature.
*For the setting method, refer to the technical manual.
NOTE
Be sure to conduct this setting before any other operation. If the motor is warm or the heat exchanger is wet, false and detection may lead to incorrect adjustments. Check if the electrical wirings and duct installations are complete. If there is a damper installed in the system, make sure the damper is open. Check if the air filter(optional) is attached. If there are several inlet, outlet ports, make sure the airflow rates of each port match the designed airflow rate by adjusting the throttles.
Automatic airflow adjustment is possible by the following procedures.
1) Change Function 26 to "Automatic airflo
2) Run the air conditioner on Fan mode (High).
* For instructions on how to operate the air conditioner, refer to the operation manual of the remote controller. Automatic During airflow ajustment, the mode will be fixed at Fan mode(High). When this function is active, do not operate the Outdoor unit.
When the setting is performing, Test mode display: 3-Wire RC/ Maintenance dispaly: 2-Wire RC will be shown on the remote controller panelle.

3) The air conditioner will run for about 1 to 8 min. then stop automatically. * Do not change the throttles of the inlet and outlet ports during operation. When used in a Group control system, the setting will take about 10 min. When the Error code 15.4 (Automatic Air flo Refer to the Trouble shooting Error code15

SERVICE PARTS INFORMATION 1
Compressor
Diagnosis method of Compressor ( If Outdoor Unit LED displays Error, refer to Trouble shooting )
Does not start up
Is there open or loose connection cable?
Check Main PCB, connection of Compressor, and winding resistance. (Refer to the next page).
>> If there is no failure, the defect of Compressor is considered (Locked compressor due to clogged dirt or less oil)
Replace Compressor
Stops soon after starting up
Is there open or loose connection cable?
Is Gas Pipe Valve open? (Low Pressure is too low)
MPa MPa
Check if Refrigerant is leaking. (Recharge Refrigerant)
Abnormal noise
Check if vibration noise by loose bolt or contact noise of piping is happening.
Defective Compressor can be considered. (due to inside dirt clogging or bro
ken component)
Replace Compressor
Check if Strainer is clogged. (PARTS INFORMATION 3)
Check Main PCB, connection of Compressor,and winding resistance. (Refer to the next page).
>> If there is no failure, the defect of Compressor can be considered. (Compression part broken or valve defective.)
Replace Compressor

If Resistance value is abnormal, replace EEV.
Check Point 5 : Check Opening and Closing Operation of Valve
When Valve is closed, it has a temp. difference between Inlet and Outlet.
CLOSE Example : Hot Gas
If it is open, it has no temp. difference between Inlet and Outlet.
OPEN Example : Hot Gas

Check Point 6 : Check Strainer
Strainer normally does not have temperature difference between inlet and outlet as shown in , but if there is a difference as shown in , there is a possibility of inside clogged. In this case, replace Strainer.
