Good example 2 (Single spot grounding of shield wire)
(Points to notice)
(1) Outside the unit, transmission wires should stay away from electric wires in order to prevent electromagnetic noise from
making an influence on the signal communication. Place them at intervals of more than 5cm. Do not put them in the same
conduit tube.
(2) Terminal block (TB7) for transmission wires should never be connected to 220~240V power supply. If it is connected,
electronic parts on M-NET p.c. board may be burn out.
(3) Use 2-core x 1.25mm2shield wire (CVVS, CPEVS) for the transmission wire. Transmission signals may not be sent or
received normally if different types of transmission wires are put together in the same multi-conductor cable. Never do this
because this may cause a malfunction.
It would be ok if M-NET wire (non-polar, 2-cores) is arranged in addition to the wiring for A-control.
(4) Ground only one of any appliances through M-NET transmission wire (shield wire). Communication error may occur due to
the influence of electromagnetic noise.
“Ed” error will appear on the LED display of outdoor unit.
“0403” error will appear on the central-control remote controller.
If there are more than two grounding spots on the shield wire, noise may enter into the shield wire because the ground wire
To avoid communication errors caused by noise, make sure to observe the single spot grounding method described in the
and shield wire form one circuit and the electric potential difference occurs due to the impedance difference among grounding spots. In case of single spot grounding, noise does not enter into the shield wire because the ground wire and shield
wire do not form one circuit.

● M-NET wiring
(1) Use 2-core x 1.25mm
(Excluding the case connecting to system controller.)
(2) Connect the wire to the M-NET terminal block.Connect one core of the
transmission wire (non-polar) to Aterminal and the other to B. Peel the
shield wire, twist the shield part to a string and connect it to S terminal.
(3) In the system which several outdoor units are being connected, the terminal
(A, B, S) on M-NET terminal block should be individually wired to the other

shield wire for electric wires.

outdoor unit’s terminal, i.e. Ato A, B to B and S to S.In this case, choose one of those outdoor units and drive a screw
to fix an ground wire on the plate as shown on the right figure.
2-2-1. M-NET address setting
In A-control models, M-NET address and refrigerant address should be set only for the outdoor unit. Similar to Free Combo
system, there is no need to set the address of outdoor unit and remote controller. To construct a central control system, the
setting of M-NET address should be conducted only upon the outdoor unit. The setting range should be 1 to 50 (the same as
that of the indoor unit in Free Combo system), and the address number should be consecutively set in a same group.
Address number can be set by using rotary switches
(SW11 for ones digit and SW12 for tens digit), which
is located on the M-NET board of outdoor unit.
(Factory setting: all addresses are set to “0”.)
2-2-2. Refrigerant address setting
In case of multiple grouping system (multiple refrigerant circuits in one group), indoor units should be connected by remote
controller wiring (TB5) and the refrigerant address needs to be set. Leave the refrigerant addresses to “00” if the group setting is not conducted. Set the refrigerant address by using DIP SW1-3 to -6 on the outdoor controller board. [Factory setting:
all switches are OFF. (All refrigerant addresses are “00”.)]
2-2-3. Regulations in address settings
In case of multiple grouping system, M-NET and refrigerant address settings should be done as explained in the above section. Set the lowest number in the group for the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00” as its M-NET address.
w Refrigerant addresses can be overlapped if they are in the different group.
w In group B, M-NET address of the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00” is not set to the minimum in the group. As
“3” is right for this situation, the setting is wrong. Taking group A as a good sample, set the minimum M-NET address in
the group for the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00”.

1.When the wired remote control or the indoor unit microcomputer has failed,but all other
components work properly, if you set the switch(SWE) on the indoor control panel ON,the indoor
unit will begin Emergency Operation.
When Emergency Operation is activated, the indoor unit operates as follows:
(1)Indoor fan is running at high speed.
(2)Drain-up machine(optional) is working.
NOTES:
2.Indoor and outdoor connecting wires are made with polarities,make

4-3-1. 1:1 system
(a) Pipe length
(b) Adjusting the amount of refrigerant
• Additional refrigerant charge is not necessary for the pipe length up to 30 m. When the pipe length exceeds 30 m or service
(refrigerant replacement) is performed, charge proper amount of refrigerant for each pipe length referring to table below.
Use refrigerant R410A. Use charge hose exclusive for R410A.
• When charging additional refrigerant, charge the refrigerant from low-pressure side of the port valve using a safety charger.
• Make sure that air purge for this unit at refrigerant replacement is performed from both high-pressure check valve and ser-
vice port. (If air purge is performed only from one of them, air in not purged enough.)
• When replacing refrigerant, charge the refrigerant from service port. When charged refrigerant is less than specified amount,
charge the refrigerant again from low pressure side of the port valve using a safety charger.
• Tighten the service port cap (nut) of stop valve firmly. The tightening torque is 12 to 16 N·m. (For the prevention of slow-leak)
• Check additional refrigerant charging amount referring to table 4 when liquid pipe is one size larger than standard diameter,
and table 2 when the pipe is standard diameter.

(c) Capacity correction
Cooling
Heating
Cooling and heating capacity is lowered according to pipe length. Capacity can be obtained by referring to the capacity
curves below. When the diameter of gas pipe is one size smaller than standard diameter, cooling capacity is lowered comparing to the standard diameter. The lowered capacity can be obtained by referring to capacity curves for gas pipe which is
one size smaller than standard size.
Corrected pipe length (m) = actual pipe length (m) + number of bends x 0.3 (m)

1. Keep Stop valve in outdoor unit fully closed (as it is shipped), and after completing refrigerant piping connection, conduct air
purge from service port of stop valve at outdoor unit.
2. After air purging, make the valve rod of stop valve at outdoor unit fully open.
Now refrigerating cycle is complete between indoor and outdoor unit.
Handle stop valve following the indication on outdoor unit.
Caution:
• Be sure to apply refrigerating oil to flare sheet face. Never apply it to screws. (As it causes flare nut loosening.)
• Use double spanner for piping connection.
• Be sure to check gas leak by using leak detector or soapy water.
• Use attached parts for refrigerant piping to provide correct insulation to the connection of indoor unit side in accordance with
attached explanation sheet.
• Be sure to provide anoxidized brazing.
(b) Adjusting the amount of refrigerant
(i) In case of RP 3 twin
Check the additional refrigerant to be charged referring to table 2 when using pipe of size referred in table 8.
(ii) In case of RP4 - 6 twin or RP6 triple
When using liquid pipe one size larger than standard diameter for main pipe A, calculate the amount of additional
refrigerant referring to 2 below.
1 When using piping of standard diameter or gas pipe one size larger than standard diameter for main pipe A.
Check the additional refrigerant to be charged referring to table 2 like 1:1 system.
2 When using liquid pipe one size larger than standard diameter for main pipe A.
[In case of RP4-6 using liquid pipe of [12.7]
• When total length of extension pipe (main pipe and branch pipe) is less than 20 m.
No adjustment is required for refrigerant. (Chargeless)
• When total length of extension pipe (main pipe and branch pipe) is more than 20 m.
Calculate the amount of additional refrigerant, referred to as W (g) in the following, using the equation below and add
proper amount of refrigerant. If W is less than or equal to 0, no additional charge is required. (Chargeless)
Note: Put “0” in L1-3 if it is not used. L1: Liquid pipe length of [12.7 (m)
(c) Capacity correction
Apply pipe length between indoor and outdoor unit which is the longest of all for the calculation of capacity lowering according
to each pipe length.
