The operation procedure is different depending on the type of SD device and SD card. Always replace the SD
card according to the replacement procedure of the SD card you want to replace. If you perform SD card copy,
database switch operation, etc. without following the operation procedure, it will cause data loss or damage,
which will not be possible to recover from, so please observe caution.
●●● Caution ●●● (Cause of malfunction!)
· Do not insert or remove the SD card while working or with the power turned on.
· Be sure to turn off the power before each time the SD card is replaced (or switched between slots 1 and 2)
during operation.
· Do not forcibly remove the USB memory device except if instructed to do so on the screen. Doing so may
cause data corruption.
If you have started the Intelligent Controller normally without removing the USB memory device, please
push down on the USB removal button on the normal screen and remove it.
● When replacing the SD card, turn off the power of the main unit, set the DIP switch (SW7) 3 on the main board

Procedure when adding/removing a unitVarious procedures
Procedure when adding/removing a unit
When adding, removing or relocating units managed by the Intelligent Controller (indoor units,
outdoor units, and local adaptors), problems may occur such as with centralised control and
air conditioning distribution calculation unless the settings and registration are changed for the
Intelligent Controller.
Take adequate care, since the necessary work varies case by case.
* In the linked system (or adaptor system), if you simply move the physical installation location,
there is no need to reapply the settings.
■
Flow of overall work (*1)
First of all, distribution calculation is done in the state before work.
(Specify the date of the current day as the end day using [Oper./Status] → [Accumult/Distrib]
→ [Distribution data].)
Add, remove, and relocate the units, complete necessary address settings, etc. and conrm
normal operation as an air conditioner
* The [Cong. change] warning may be displayed on the Intelligent Controller screen,
but do not operate the screen until the air conditioner work is complete.
↓
After completing the work on the air conditioner, perform [Check conguration] with the
Intelligent Controller
↓
After a short period of time, [Cong. has been chngd] is displayed.
↓
When prompted with [Conrm conguration?], select [Begin cong]
↓
When the check conguration process is complete, conrm the indoor address display
(On the [Settings] / [System settings] / [I/D unit settings] screen, etc.)
↓
Make necessary changes to settings, such as the area settings and unit name according to
the modication work.
Be sure to set the central address for added units
↓
Make backup and end (1 Insert USB memory device in USB terminal → 2 [Backup/CSV
output] in [Settings] → 3 [Backup] → 5 Save to USB memory device)
* The number is the number of the Intelligent Controller operating instructions.
*1
If distribution calculation is required:
In cases where distribution processing is affected by the addition, removal, or relocation of
indoor units, distribution calculation is always required.
For example,
· Addition of indoor units to area
· Removal of indoor units from area
· Relocation of indoor units between areas
· Partition change of area
On the other hand, distribution processing may not be affected in some cases.
For example,
· Addition/removal/relocation of units not subject to distribution (shared parts, etc.)
· Addition/removal/relocation of units in vacant rooms (area not registered)
· Physical relocation within an area (there is also no [Cong. change])
In such cases, distribution calculation is not required.

Various procedures
Procedure when entering or leaving an area mid-period
Procedure when entering or leaving an area mid-period
If occupants move into or move out from an area while doing air conditioning distribution or charge
distribution, unless the work for that is performed, note that it will affect the distribution of the other
areas.
■ Ideally
Ideally, occupants should move in or move out the next day after the cutoff day (that is, after the
cutoff is over) and then the settings work for addition or removal of area should be performed
immediately.
If occupants move in or out without waiting for the cutoff day, perform the work as follows.
■ In the case that occupants move out from the area mid-period
(1) Calculate the distribution on the day of moving out. (Specify the date of the current day as the
end day using [Oper./Status] → [Accumult/Distrib] → [Distribution data].)
(2) For the area from which occupants have moved out, process the billing with the usage
amount based on the cutoff data.
(3) Delete the area from which occupants have moved out from the settings of the area number,
area name, distribution group, etc.
(4) Wait for the normal cutoff day and calculate the monthly usage amount by summing up the
data for two times in each area together with the distribution calculation of (1) for that month
only.
* If it is obvious that nobody will move into the vacated area by the next cutoff day (such that
the air conditioners will not be used), it is possible to wait until the next cutoff day while
keeping the last billing processing on hold, then carry out billing processing in the same way
as other areas according to the cutoff day. Then perform (3) above.
■ In the case that occupants move into the area at the period
(1) Calculate the distribution on the day before moving in. (Specify the date of the current day as
the end day using [Oper./Status] → [Accumult/Distrib] → [Distribution data].)
(2) On the day of moving in, perform the settings for the area number, area name, distribution
group, etc. for the area.
(3) Then wait for the normal cutoff day, and perform billing processing for the area that occupants
have moved into part way through according to the contents of the cutoff data.
For other areas, calculate the monthly usage amount by summing up the data for two times in
each area together with the distribution calculation of (1) for that month only.
* If it is obvious that nobody has occupied the area at least from the previous cutoff day until the
present day (the air conditioners have not been used), it is possible not to perform the manual
cutoff in (1).
■ Do not forget to remove from the [Distrib. Grp.] settings for indoor units in rooms of areas which
are not occupied.
If you remove them from the distribution group, it is no problem to register them as areas with area
names such as “vacant room”.
In addition, it is recommended that you set [ON/OFF Prhbt.] for the remote controller of vacant
rooms.
* If you leave a vacant room in the distribution group and the indoor unit is operated, distribution to
that vacant room will occur.
Also, if load distribution is used, the standby power will be counted even in the OFF state, so the
distribution will not be 0%.

The Energy Saving function
Demand control
“Demand” indicates the “electricity demand” (average electricity over 30 minutes).
The basic charges for electricity are determined by the maximum value of
demand (the maximum electricity demand). This maximum demand for electricity
occurs during summer and winter when the air conditioning burden is the
greatest. One way of reducing electric power costs is to suppress the maximum
electricity demand during these periods. (Your actual situation depends on your
contract with your electricity provider)
Furthermore, by suppressing the maximum demand for electricity, you can assist
in the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and help reduce global warming.
Demand control means that the air conditioning units are monitored so that their
electricity consumption does not exceed a contracted amount, and by setting a level as shown in the following diagram (demand 1, 2, or 3), the
performance of the air conditioning units can be controlled so that energy usage is reduced.
This unit suppress the maximum demand for electricity through automated control of air conditioning units by demand control output (demand
output) signals emitted by external equipments.

Energy navigation function
Indoor units will run in energy saving modes according to the amount of human activity detected by
ECONAVI sensors (sold separately).
Warning
Do not use the ECONAVI feature in rooms where only disabled people or infants are present.
(It may cause damage to their condition or worsen their health)
If there is not much movement for a long time, the ECONAVI sensor may determine that the room is unoccupied and stop the air
conditioning unit.
Note
y You can turn on or off the ECONAVI feature on this unit.
y You will need a separate remote controller* with ECONAVI functionality in order to make advanced settings for the ECONAVI feature. Refer to
the operating instructions for the remote controller* with ECONAVI functionality for details on how to congure the feature.
y Even if the target temperature is changed by ECONAVI, the set temperature displayed on the unit will not change.
y Even if the mode is switched to fan due to the absence of people (standby mode), the mode displayed on the unit will not change.
y When running multiple indoor units, the energy reduction effect may be reduced depending on the conditions in the room.

Setting a schedule
Operation/Status
Schedule setting ow
This system allows you to set schedules for each indoor unit so that they run automatically.
You can set schedules by month for up to 2 years in the future.
Furthermore, you can put indoor units that will run on the same schedule into “Schedule group”.
Schedules are set according to the following ow.
Setting a schedule
z “Setting a schedule” (P.43)
Register the schedule for indoor units.
y Decide a “daily running mode” to set when registering the schedule. You can register up to 50 types of daily running mode.
What is the “daily running mode”?
Scheduling patterns for indoor units (individually or as part of a schedule group) are called “daily running mode”.
Daily operating modes are registered as different patterns for schedules to match different days of the week, holidays, and
seasons.
Example of daily running mode settings
y Daily running mode for a working day (Monday to Friday) (“Mode1”)
y Daily running mode for Saturday (“Mode2”)
y Daily running mode for Sunday (“Mode3”)
* Schedule group: Indoor units that run on the same schedule registered in groups. To register into schedule groups, see
“Basic settings on the indoor unit” (P.141).

Setting a schedule
Operation/Status
What is a “setting cell”?
To set a schedule, you need to register operations in “setting cells”. The “setting cell” is the smallest unit of operations used to
congure a schedule.
You set “Time”, “ON/OFF”, “OpertnMode”, “Temperatre”, “Fan SPD”, “Flap”, “Prhbt”, and “EnerSavStg” in a “setting cell”. Each
time you change an operation (for example from “ON” to “OFF”), you register a different “setting cell”.
A schedule consists of a collection of these “setting cells” lined up.
The following is an example schedule set for an indoor unit.
Setting cell (this example shows “Time” displayed)
1 block equates to a setting cell, so here
there are 6 settings.
Example
In the “09:00” setting cell
y “Time”: 09:00
y “ON/OFF”: ON
y “OpertnMode”: Cool
y “Temperatre”: 28 °C
y “Fan SPD”: Low
y “Flap”: Swing
Example
In the “09:15” setting cell
y “Time”: 09:15
y “ON/OFF”: ON (no change to the setting)
y “OpertnMode”: Dry
y “Temperatre”: 28 °C (no change to the setting)
y “Fan SPD”: Low (no change to the setting)
y “Flap”: Swing (no change to the setting)
