4-2. COMPRESSOR TECHNICAL DATA
at 20˚C
Note:
If there is an insufficient amount of refrigerant in the system, the unit will behave in one of the following ways: 1) the discharge temperature of the unit rises abnor-
mally high, which is detected as an error, and the unit comes to a stop; 2) the discharge temperature of the compressor rises abnormally high, the unit goes into
the unload operation, which appears as the P8 error on the display, and the unit comes to a stop; or 3) the built-in thermostat on the compressor goes off and
stops the compressor. In either case, replenish and adjust the refrigerant. Once the unit goes into the unload operation, it takes at least 3 hours until normal operation can be restored.

1. Checklist
• After the installation, piping setup, and wiring of the indoor and outdoor units is
complete, check that refrigerant is not leaking, the power and control wires are
not loose, and the poles are not reversed.
• Use a 500 V insulation resistance tester to make sure that the resistance be-
tween the power terminal and the ground is 1.0 MΩ or more. If it is less than
1.0 MΩ, do not operate the unit. * Absolutely do not touch the tester to indoor/
outdoor connection terminals S1, S2, and S3. An accident could occur.
• Make sure there is no malfunction in the outdoor unit. (If there is a malfunction,
you can diagnose it using LED1 on the board.)
• Check that the ball valve is fully open on both the liquid and gas ends.
• Check to make sure that L
order. Connecting them in the reverse order will trip the negative-phase protector, and the unit will come to a stop, displaying the Error code F1.
• •Starting at least 12 hours before the test run, send current through the
crankcase heater. (If the current is running for a shorter period of time,
damage to the compressor could result.)
After the above checks are complete, carry out the test run as indicated in the
following outline.
1, L2, and L3 are connected in the correct phase
2. Starting and finishing the test run
• Procedure from the outdoor unit: start and stop the test run and set test run
mode (cooling/heating) using the SW4 dip switches on the board.
1 Set test run mode (cooling/heating) using SW 4-2.
2 The test run will begin when SW 4-1 is turned ON, according to the mode
selected by SW 4-2.
3 The test run is stopped when SW 4-1 is turned OFF.

Note:
Test run mode cannot be stopped during operation by using SW 4-2. (If the
operation mode is to be changed, first stop it using SW 4-1, then after c hanging the operation mode, start the test run again using SW 4-1.)
• If the 2-hour timer is set, the test run will stop automatically after 2 hours.
• During the test run, the room temperature display on the indoor unit will indi-
cate the temperature of the indoor unit piping.
• When you operate the test run from OC1, all trial runs are completed by OC1→ IC1 → MA → IC1 → OC2.

3) Check mode is released by stopping operation, changing the operation mode, or check mode time up. A check
mode is also released by stopping of operation by remote controller.
4) Detected check mode history (newest) and abnormality history (last 2 times) are memorized and are displayed on
the segment by circuit board DIP switch setting.
The operation mode when the newest abnormality was generated, the thermistor temperature (TH1,2), and the
thermostat ON time can also be displayed.
(2) Compressor, 4-way valve, and crankcase heater control
1) Determines the operation mode and operates the compressor based on the indoor/outdoor communication or MNET communication data.
2) Compressor control has a function which prevents the compressor from restarting within 3 minutes.
3) The 4-way valve is always ON during heating (except during defrosting). In other modes, it is OFF. However, when
the operation mode was changed from heating to stop, the 4-way valve is turned off 10 minutes after the compressor was stopped.
4) While the compressor is stopped, the crankcase heater remains ON. (OFF while the compressor is operating.)
5) When the operation mode is changed while the compressor is operating, the compressor stops and 3 minutes later
restarts in the new mode.
(3) Fan control
Controls the fan speed based on the piping temperature (TH1) to perform cooling at low outdoor temperatures and heating
at high outdoor temperatures.
1) Control at cooling
a) When the compressor stops, the fan stops (fan output=0%).
b) When the power is turned on, or when the compressor is restated after it has been stopped for 30 minutes or
longer, the piping temperature ( TH1) determines the fan output.
When TH
When TH < 25˚CFan output = 60 %
c) When the compressor is restarted within 30 minutes after it has been stopped, the f an step before the compres-
sor was stopped is selected. Howev er, when the fan output was under 30% when the fan was stopped, 30% is
selected.
d) When the mode was changed from heating to cooling, the fan step conforms to item 2.
e) Two minutes after the fan is started, the fan step (number of units) is controlled every 30 seconds based on the
piping temperature (TH1).
f) When TH1 reaches 55˚C or higher, or when the control high pressure switch (63H2) tr ipped, the fan output
becomes 100%.
g) Fan output while the compressor is operating is within the 20% to 100% range.

c) When the compressor is restarted within 30 min utes, the fan step is the step before the compressor was stopped.
d) When the mode is changed from cooling to heating, the fan step conforms to item b).
e) When returning from defrosting, the fan step is the step before defrosting.
f) Two minutes after the fan was restarted, the fan step is controlled every 30 seconds based on the piping
temperature (TH1).
g) When TH1 is –5˚C or lower, the fan output is made 100%.

12GROUP CONTROL
(1) Notes on performing group control
(
• Up to 16 indoor units can be sequentially started up with each remote controller.
• The ON/OFF control of the room temperature is performed individually for each refrigerant system with the inlet
thermistor that is built-in on the unit.
• Up to two remote controllers can be connected to each group.
(Up to two wired remote controllers can be connected. There are no restrictions on the number of wireless controllers
that can be connected.)

<Wiring and setting procedures>
1 Connect the remote controller to an indoor unit, and daisy-chain all indoor units.
When connecting two remote controllers, the two controllers cannot be daisy-chained. Make the connections
through indoor units.
2 Make the refrigerant address setting for each indoor unit, and turn on the power.
Set the refrigerant address before turning on the power.
*The remote controller power supply unit is automatically set to the indoor unit with the refrigerant address of 01.
(LED 2 comes on.)
<Refrigerant address setting method>
Refrigerant addresses are also used by the sequential start up timer (4 second interval) to prevent rush current.
If any of the indoor unit addresses overlap, correct indoor unit cannot be identified during self-diagnosis or function
selection. Assign a different refrigerant address to all indoor units, following the setting procedures below.

<Abnormality detected during unit operation: Indoor unit>
Abnormality display
P8
Meaning of abnormality display and
abnormality troubleshooting
Piping temperature abnormal
<Cool>
When the piping temperature stays
outside the cooling area for 1 minute
after 3 minutes have elapsed since
the compressor was started, the indoor fan operates at low speed. If the
piping temperature does not return
to the cooling area after 5 minutes
operation at low speed, an abnormality is recognized.
Note 1) It takes a minimum of 9 min-
utes for an abnormality to be
detected.
Note 2) At dry operation, P8 abnor-
mality is not detected.
<Heat>
When the piping temperature falls
outside the heating area and enters
the ventilation area after compressor
operation and the end of hot adjust,
the indoor fan stops and the piping
temperature does not return to the
heating area within 20 minutes after
10 seconds have elapsed after it left
the heating area, an abnormality is
recognized.
Note 3) It takes a minimum of 22
minutes and a maximum of
27 minutes for an abnormal-
ity to be detected.
Note 4) Except during defrosting
(Detected again after de-
frosting return.)
Cause
(1)Indoor intake piping thermistor tem-
perature differential small.
- EInsufficient refrigerant
- EPiping thermistor holder dislodged.
- ERefrigerant circuit f aulty.
(2) Extension piping (When multiple units
connected).
(3) Indoor/outdoor connection wire
(When multiple units connected).
(4) Indoor intake piping thermistor detec-
tion faulty.
Judgment method and remedy
(1) Operate in test run mode and check
piping temperature.
(2)(3)
Check extension piping or indoor/outdoor connection wire.
(4) Check remote controller room tempera-
ture display and piping temperature in
test run mode.
P9
Piping (2-phase pipe) sensor
abnormal
1) If thermistor short or open is de-
tected and the compressor enters
the 3 minutes restart prevention
mode and does not return to normal after 3 minutes, an abnormality is recognized.
(If returned, returns to normal operation.)
2) Always detected during cool, dry,
and heat (except during defrosting) operation.
Short: 90 °C or higher
Open: –40 °C or lower
caused thermistor temperature to rise
to 90 °C or higher or drop to –40 °C
or lower.
(5)Indoor controller board faulty.
(1)-(3)
Check thermistor resistance value.
For characteristic, see above (P1).
(2)Check for connector faulty contact.
After reinserting connector, turn on
power and recheck operation.
(4) Operate in trail run mode and check
piping temperature with remote controller. When piping temperature is abnormally low (cooling) or high (heating),
refrigerant circuit is probably faulty.
(5)Check test run mode piping tempera-
ture with remote controller.
If there is a difference between actual
piping temperature and displayed piping temperature when there are no abnormalities at (1)-(4), replace indoor
controller board. If there is no problem
above, there are no abnor malities.
Turn on power and operate.
