Inverter control, which equipped with a microcomputer in determining the most suitable operating mode as time passes,
automatically adjust output power for maximum comfort always.
In order to achieve the suitable operation mode, the microcomputer maintains the set temperature by measuring the
temperature of environment and performing temperature shifting.
8.1.1. Temperature Shifting Flow
The compressor at outdoor unit is operating following the frequency instructed by the microcomputer at indoor unit that judging the
condition according to internal setting temperature.
This mode can be set using remote control and the operation is decided by remote control setting temperature, indoor intake air
temperature and outdoor air temperature.
During operation mode judgment, indoor fan motor (with speed of Lo-) and outdoor fan motor are running for 30 seconds to detect
the indoor intake and outdoor air temperature. The operation mode is decided based on below chart.
Values of T1, T2, and T3 depend on remote control setting temperature, as shown in below table. After the adjustment of T1, T2
and T3 values, the operation mode for that particular environment and remote control setting is judged and performed, based on
the above operation mode chart, every 30 minutes.
Example of operation mode chart adjustment:
From the above table, if remote control setting temperature = 25,
T1 = 25 + 7 = 32; T2 = 25 - 3 = 22; T3 = 25 - 7 = 18
The operation mode chart for this example is as shown in below figure and the operation mode to be performed will depend on
indoor intake air temperature and outdoor air temperature at the time when the judgment is made.
• If move from Lo, the fan speed will be shifted to Maximum 1520 rpm.
• If move from Maximum, the fan speed no change.
• In up zone, 10 rpm is added for every 10s until Maximum 1520 rpm.
b. DOWN:
• The fan speed will be decreased one step every 10 sec. until Minimum 1270 rpm.
c. Current Output Fixed:
• Maintain at present fan speed.
d. Instantaneous Maximum:
• Fan speed will be increased to maximum auto fan speed.
e. Temperature in ( ) is for Powerful Mode operation.
C. Fan Motor Control
1. Motor specification
High voltage PWM Motor
2. Feedback Control
a. Number-of-rotations feedback
Immediately after the fan started, rpm is checked and duty is added, and feedback control is performed. For high voltage
PWM motor, it is done once every 0.5 second.
b. Offset duty T max/min limit
High voltage PWM motor has maximum offset duty.
(Refer Indoor fan motor control basic rotation speed)
3. Abnormal Detection Control
Conditions:
a. Out of rhythm signal input
b. If feedback number of rotations exceeded #2550 r/min or when less than #50 r/min.
Control: Fans stop
Return: Restart after 5 seconds
* It will not detect the out of rhythm condition within 5s for phase control motor (PWM motor is when duty=0) after start.
A fan stops when condition (1) and (2) happen within 25.0 seconds after fan starting, and if this happens for continuously
7 times, it will not retry.
→ FM lock processing
4. Restart Prohibition Control
Restart is prohibited within 5s for phase control motor (PWM motor is when duty=0) after fan stop (except re-ON the power
i. Control condition

Outdoor fan motor is operated with 15 fan speed. It starts when compressor starts operation and it stops 30 seconds after
compressor stops operation for speed no.8.
1. There are one types of airflow, vertical airflow (directed by horizontal vane).
2. Control of airflow direction can be automatic (angles of direction is determined by operation mode, heat exchanger temperature
and intake air temperature) and manual (angles of direction can be adjusted using remote control).

1. Automatic vertical airflow direction can be set using remote control; the vane swings up and down within the angles as stated
above. For heating mode operation, the angle of the vane depends on the indoor heat exchanger temperature as Figure 1
below. When the air conditioner is stopped using remote control, the vane will shift to close position.
2. Manual vertical airflow direction can be set using remote control; the angles of the vane are as stated above and the positions
of the vane are as Figure 2 below. When the air conditioner is stopped using remote control, the vane will shift to close position.

8.1.11. 24-Hour Real Time Timer Control
ON Timer
ON timer can be set using remote control, the unit with timer set will start operate earlier than the setting time. This is to provide
a comfortable environment when reaching the set ON time.
Outdoor fan-ON instructions are transmitted to outdoor unit 60 minutes before setting time, then sampling the outdoor / indoor
temperature with indoor fan at Lo- for 30 seconds. After detecting the indoor/outdoor temperature, the unit determines the
operation starting time according to the load. However, when outdoor unit is operating, the preparation starting time will be set
to minimum.
OFF Timer
When the OFF timer is set by using the remote control, the unit stop operate according to the desired setting.
Notes:
1. By pressing ON/OFF operation button, the ON Timer/OFF Timer setting will not be cancelled.
2. To cancel the previous timer setting, press CANCEL button.
3. To activate the previous timer setting, press SET button.
4. If main power supply is switched off, the Timer setting will be cancelled.
1. When the power supply is cut off during the operation of air conditioner, the compressor will re-operate within three to four
minutes (there are 10 patterns between 2 minutes 58 seconds and 3 minutes 52 seconds to be selected randomly) after power
supply resumes.
2. This type of control is not applicable during ON/OFF Timer setting.
