 Precautions for Installation Using New Refrigerant
1. Care regarding tubing
1-1. Process tubing
● Material: Use C1220 phosphorous deoxidized copper specified in JIS H3300 “Copper and Copper Alloy Seamless Pipes and Tubes.”
For tubes of ø22.22 or larger, use C1220 T-1/2H material or H material, and do not bend the tubes.
● Tubing size: Be sure to use the sizes indicated in the table below.
● Use a tube cutter when cutting the tubing, and be sure to remove any flash. This also applies to distribution joints (optional).
● When bending tubing, use a bending radius that is 4 times the outer diameter of the tubing or larger.

Use sufficient care in handling the tubing. Seal the tubing ends with caps or tape to prevent dirt,
CAUTION moisture, or other foreign substances from entering. These substances can result in system
malfunction.

1-2. Prevent impurities including water, dust and oxide from entering the tubing. Impurities can cause R410A refrigerant deterioration
and compressor defects. Due to the features of the refrigerant and refrigerating machine oil, the prevention of water and other
impurities becomes more important than ever.
2. Be sure to recharge the refrigerant only in liquid form.
2-1. Since R410A is a non-azeotrope, recharging the refrigerant in gas form can lower performance and cause defects in the unit.
2-2. Since refrigerant composition changes and performance decreases when gas leaks, collect the remaining refrigerant and recharge
the required total amount of new refrigerant after fixing the leak.
3. Different tools required
3-1. Tool specifications have been changed due to the characteristics of R410A.
Some tools for R22- and R407C-type refrigerant systems cannot be used.
R407C tools Manifold gauge

Manifold gauge Yes No Types of refrigerant, refrigerating machine oil,
and pressure gauge are different.
Charge hose Yes No To resist higher pressure, material must be
changed.
Vacuum pump Yes Yes Use a conventional vacuum pump if it is equipped
with a check valve. If it has no check valve,
purchase and attach a vacuum pump adapter.

Flaring oil Yes No For systems that use R22, apply mineral oil
(Suniso oil) to the flare nuts on the tubing to
prevent refrigerant leakage. For machines that
use R407C or R410A, apply synthetic oil (ether
oil) to the flare nuts.

* Using tools for R22 and R407C and new tools for R410A together can cause defects.

1. Press the remote controller button for 4 seconds or longer.
2. “TEST” appears on the LCD display while the test run is in progress.
3. Then press the button.
The temperature cannot be adjusted in Test Run mode.
(This mode places a heavy load on the machines. Therefore use it only when performing the test run.)
The test run can be performed using the HEAT, COOL, or FAN operation modes.
The outdoor units will not operate for approximately 3 minutes after the power is turned ON and after operation
is stopped.
If correct operation is not possible, an error code is displayed on the remote controller LCD display.
(Refer to “Table of Self-Diagnostic Functions” and correct the problem.)
4. After the test run is completed, press the button again. Check that “TEST” disappears from the LCD display.
To prevent continuous test runs, this remote controller includes a timer function that cancels the test run after 60 minutes.
The operation is possible even if the cassette-type ceiling panel has not been installed. (“P09” display does not occur.)

Alarm conditions (1) D
 ischarge temp. of 100°C or higher was detected 30 minutes or more after that compressor
stopped operating.
(2) D
 ischarge temp. of 80°C or higher was detected after all compressors had been stopped for
60 minutes or longer.
(3) A/D step is 10 steps or less (short circuit).
Probable cause (1) Sensor malfunction
• Sensor element malfunction
• Sensor wiring is partially disconnected, resulting in increased electrical resistance.
This alarm does not occur when the wiring is cut or when the connector is not connected to
the outdoor unit PCB.
(2) Crossed wiring or installation error
• The discharge temperature sensor of that compressor is connected to the discharge tube
of the other compressor.
• The connector for the discharge temperature sensor of the problem compressor is
connected to the outdoor unit PCB connector for the other compressor.
(3) Outdoor unit PCB failure
(4) The check valve on the discharge tube for that compressor is wet.
(5) A
 n air short blockage in the area around the outdoor unit has increased the outdoor unit
ambient temperature, reducing the cooling effects after the compressor stops.
(6) There is a cause that results in P03, P17, P18 or P02 alarm. 1
(7) Electrical noise
Check (1) Sensor malfunction and outdoor unit PCB failure
Trouble: • Constantly indicates a high temperature.
• When monitoring software or other means are used for monitoring, the discharge
temperature at times fluctuates suddenly and wildly.
• In some cases, the precise temperature may not be known, even when monitoring 2
software is used.
Check: • Wiggle the sensor and check whether the trouble continues.
• Check whether the connector is partially disconnected from the PCB.
An F04 alarm will not result if the connector is completely disconnected (circuit is

3
open).
• If the cause is still uncertain, check the following to determine whether a sensor or
PCB failure has occurred.
Step 1: C  onnect the other compressor discharge sensor, or a discharge sensor where
the F04 alarm has not occurred, to the connector for this compressor on the
PCB. Measure the temperature at the same point (a location where temperature
fluctuations are small), and check whether there is a temperature difference.
Difference Õ A PCB or sensor failure is possible.
No difference Õ PCB and sensor are normal.
4
Step 2: If an abnormality was found at Step 1, connect the problem compressor
sensor to the other compressor connector on the PCB, or to the PCB
connector of a device where the F04 alarm has not occurred. Measure the
temperature at the same point (a location where temperature fluctuations are
small), and check whether there is a temperature difference.
Difference Õ Sensor failure.
5
No difference Õ PCB failure.
It is convenient at this time to have a discharge temperature sensor on hand.
(2) Crossed wiring or installation error
Trouble: Although the other compressor is operating and this compressor is stopped, the
discharge temperature of the other compressor does not increase and the discharge
temperature of this compressor rises.
6
* The discharge temperature remains high immediately after the compressor stops. Wait
for some time after the compressor stops and observe.
Check: Check for crossed wiring and installation errors.

Check (3) Leakage from the discharge tube check valve

Trouble: Although the other compressor is operating and this compressor is stopped, the
discharge temperature of this compressor rises together with the temperature of the
other compressor.
(4) The ambient temperature around the outdoor unit when it is stopped is 43 °C or higher.
(5) If the cause is still unknown after checking the above, then it is possible that electrical noise is
the cause of the trouble. It is necessary to provide a line filter or carry out other noise
countermeasures.
Correction (1) Replace the sensor.
(2) Replace the outdoor unit PCB.
(3) Carry out noise countermeasures.
(4) Repair the refrigerant tubing.
(5) Adjust the amount of refrigerant.
(6) Correct the trouble.
Example (1) Sensor wiring is partially cut.
Notes This alarm does not indicate that the sensor is disconnected.
In order to prevent overheating during operation, the outdoor units in this system will not allow a
compressor to start if the discharge temperature does not decrease while the compressor is
stopped. If a sensor malfunction results in continuous detection of a high discharge temperature,
then the compressor may stop for no apparent reason. The purpose of this alarm is to facilitate
identification of the problem in this case.

Alarm meaning High-pressure sensor malfunction
Alarm conditions • High-pressure sensor disconnected or open circuit
• High-pressure sensor detected over 3.6MPa continuously for 30 minutes while outdoor units stopped.
• High-pressure sensor detected over 3.6MPa while outdoor units were operating.
(In some cases, start and stop may sometimes repeat due to pre-trip mode.)
Probable cause (1) High-pressure sensor failure
(2) Failure to connect the connector to the outdoor unit PCB
(3) Failure to open the service valve of the outdoor unit
(4) Clogged refrigerant circuit
(5) Refrigerant over-charging
(6) Outdoor unit PCB failure
Check (1) High-pressure sensor failure
• Check the sensor resistance value. (Use a tester and measure the resistance between sensor No. 1
and No. 3)
Resistance of less than 95k indicates a short circuit or other trouble.
Resistance of 95k - 105k (high pressure sensor pin 1-3) is normal.
Resistance of more than 105k indicates an open circuit or other trouble.
• Connect a gauge to the high-pressure outlet and check for changes in the value displayed by the
monitoring software, and for large deviation of the gauge pressure.
• During heating, check whether the temperature is lower than the highest indoor-unit E1 temperature.

1 *The pressure detected by the high-pressure sensor is the highest pressure in the system.
Therefore during heating the converted saturation temperature will never be lower than any
indoor-unit E1 temperature. During cooling this temperature will never be lower than the outdoor
unit liquid temperature.
(2) Failure to connect the connector to the outdoor unit PCB
Check the connector connected to the outdoor unit PCB

2 (3) Failure to open the service valve

Check the open/closed status of the service valve.
(4) Check for clogging of the refrigerant circuit. (5) Check for refrigerant over-charging.
When clogging or over-charging occurs, refrigerant is likely to accumulate in the outdoor unit (cooling)
and indoor unit (heating). Sudden rise in pressure at start may sometimes occur.
(6) Outdoor unit PCB failure
3 • The check items are the same as for a high-pressure sensor malfunction.
A normal PCB is needed to determine whether the problem is a PCB failure or a pressure sensor
malfunction. If an abnormality was found at the check items for a high-pressure sensor malfunction,
first try replacing the PCB and check again.
Trouble is corrected: Outdoor unit PCB failure
Trouble is not corrected: High-pressure sensor malfunction

4 Correction (1) Replacement of high-pressure sensor

When replacing a high-pressure sensor, carry out after refrigerant recovering of outdoor unit.
(2) Replacing the PCB
(3) Correct malfunction of refrigerant cycle.
• Open valve of outdoor unit.
• Correct clogging.
5 • In the case of refrigerant over-charging, recover appropriate amount of refrigerant.
Standards of over-charging
Install the pressure gauge at the high-pressure removal port of outdoor units and check for it.
During cooling: Not available in case of low outdoor temperature or adjusting the outdoor fan.
While both the compressors 1 and 2 are operating under 12-step or 13-step in the

6
fan mode, high-pressure's saturation temperature indicates the outdoor temperature
+ around 15°C.
If the temperature is 5°C higher than the said temperature, over-charging might be
expected.
During heating: There is an indoor unit where refrigerant flow is poor (E1 temperature and discharge
temperature are low), and the mechanical valve of that unit is opened to 300 pulses
or more, and the E1 temperature is close to room temperature. However be aware
7 that this kind of data results often when there is a height difference between indoor
units. Reducing the amount of refrigerant will improve the refrigerant flow, however
reducing it too much will increase the likelihood of alarms related to low oil level
(scroll-side), the low pressure SW, and discharge temperature. Use caution.
Example Malfunction had occurred when the liquid, suction and discharge tubes were clogged together.

(2) CT circuit failure (including wiring disconnection)
(3) Missing power phase
(4) Low power voltage
(5) PCB failure
1 Check (1) Compressor failure (partially locked)
Trouble: Current value during operation greatly exceeds the value shown above.
Check: When the current for each phase is measured with a clamp meter or similar
instrument, check that the current value for all phases is not high. If MG was forced
ON (use caution), check that compressor noise will not occur or the compressor
will not run with a groaning sound.
2 (2) CT circuit failure, PCB failure
Trouble:
Check: • Check for poor connector contact.
• Check the continuity of the CT circuit.
• Install a normal CT in place of this CT and check. If current is detected, then the
PCB can be judged OK.

3 → CT circuit failure
• Check that current is flowing in the phase where the CT circuit is connected.
→ Check voltage and current.
(3) Missing power phase
Trouble: This alarm primarily occurs when the T-phase is missing. When the R-phase or
S-phase is missing, CT trouble or PCB continuity trouble occur. However this may not

4
be true in the case of a missing phase caused by magnet SW trouble.
Check: There is the possibility of a magnet SW failure. Therefore, check the phase voltage at
a location that is as close to the compressor as possible.
(4) Low power voltage
Trouble: In most cases, this occurs when another constant-speed compressor (including
compressors in other units) or other device starts. It also occurs when the power
wiring is extremely long.
5 Check: Check the voltage between each of the phases. However if this trouble occurs when
other devices or compressors start, then an oscilloscope is required.
(5) PCB failure
Trouble:
Check: Check that the current value measured with the clamp meter is not lower than the
value measured with the PC or remote controller.
6 (6) If the cause is still unknown after checking the above, then it is possible that noise is the
cause of the trouble. It is necessary to connect a PC or other instrument.
Correction (1) Replace the compressor.
(2) Replace the CT circuit.
(3) Repair the power circuit.
(4) Adjust the primary-side power. Repair the power wiring.
7 (5) Replace the outdoor unit PCB.
(6) Correct the trouble.
* In the case of a compressor failure, it is likely that steps must be taken to correct the cause
of the compressor failure (such as liquid back-up) in order to prevent recurrence. Be sure to
check that there is no cause which may result in compressor locking.

temperature or other trouble) from the HIC.
The HIC judges the current and temperature, and outputs the trouble signal. In general this
indicates trouble with the HIC itself.
Probable cause Overcurrent in HIC circuit, and the resultant abnormal heating, caused by HIC failure
Check Check the power wiring and connector wiring. If the wiring and connectors are normal, use a
tester to measure the resistance between the compressor HIC power (HIC+) and ground (HIC–).
If there is a short-circuit, there is an HIC malfunction.

L10 Alarm
Alarm code L10
Alarm meaning Outdoor unit capacity not set
Alarm conditions The outdoor unit capacity has not been set, or the setting is not allowed by the system.
Probable cause This alarm occurs because the capacity has not been set.
Check Connect the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller. On the outdoor unit EEPROM detailed
setting mode screen, check the value for the outdoor unit capacity (item code 81).
Check that it is not set to “0” or to a capacity that is not allowed.
Correction If item code 81 is incorrect, use the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller and set it
correctly.
* After changing the setting, be sure to reset both the indoor and outdoor power.
Example —
Notes The outdoor unit maintenance remote controller is required in order to set the capacity in the

P03, P17, P18 Alarm

Alarm code P03, P17, P18
Alarm meaning P03 : Compressor 1 discharge temperature trouble
P17 : Compressor 2 discharge temperature trouble
P18 : Compressor 3 discharge temperature trouble
Alarm conditions Compressor 1 : Pre-trip stops when the temperature exceeds 106°C.
Compressor 2 : Pre-trip stops when the temperature exceeds 106°C.
Compressor 3 : Pre-trip stops when the temperature exceeds 106°C.
* The alarm occurs when pre-trip stop occurs more than once. However the pre-trip counter is cleared
if the compressor operates continuously for a specified length of time (more than 2.5 minuites).
Probable cause (1) Malfunction of expansion valve (MOV4)
(2) Insufficient amount of refrigerant
(including trouble resulting from an insufficient initial charge and from gas leakage)
(3) Blocking of low-pressure parts caused by intrusion of foreign objects (moisture, scale, etc.)
(4) Malfunction of expansion valves (MOV1, MOV2)
(5) Refrigerant is accumulated into the stopped outdoor units.
(6) Compressor discharge sensor failure
(7) Outdoor unit PCB failure
(8) Failure to open the service valve of the outdoor unit
(9) Electrical noise
Check (1) Malfunction of expansion valve (MOV4)
Trouble: Although the expansion valve (MOV4) opens (MOV4 does not indicate "0" on the monitoring
software), the discharge temperature of the said compressor does not decrease.

1 Check: Check whether the MOV4 secondary side refrigerant tube is cold when the expansion valve
(MOV4) opens.
(2) Insufficient refrigerant
Trouble:Liquid effectiveness is poor.
Check: Check whether or not the superheating temperature is declining if the expansion valves
(MOV1, MOV2) are opened to 300 pulses or more (after checking for foreign object
intrusion).
2 (3) Refrigerant is accumulated into the stopped outdoor units.
Trouble: • System is OK when all outdoor units are operating, however symptoms of insufficient gas
occur when a certain outdoor unit is stopped.
• Condensation or frost is visible up to the top of the accumulator of the stopped outdoor unit.
• After an outdoor unit stops, there is the sound of refrigerant flowing into an outdoor unit
that was stopped for a long time.
• When an outdoor unit starts after being stopped for a long time, the start is accompanied
3 by much vibration.
Check: • Check the following points limited to the stopped outdoor units (while the other outdoor
units are operating).
• Refrigerant leak on the expansion valves (MOV1, MOV2, MOV4)
• The expansion valve of the outdoor units stopped are all closed without any sound.
The sound of refrigerant flow can be heard when refrigerant leaks.

4 • Close the liquid service valve (normally “open”) and check whether the sound of
refrigerant flow can be heard. When the sound stops, refrigerant leaks.
• If refrigerant leaks from the expansion valve (MOV4), the temperature of the secondary
refrigerant tube becomes lower than the outdoor temperature.
• Refrigerant leaks from the expansion valve (MOV1, MOV2) and check valve connected
in apposition (check valves for 14HP ~ 20HP)
• When the outdoor units stopped, there is no refrigerant flow normally. But once
5 refrigerant leaks, the sound of refrigerant flowing from the check valve can be heard.
• Close the liquid tube service valve (normally "open") and check whether the sound of
refrigerant flow from the check valve stops. When the sound stops, refrigerant leaks.
(4) Sensor failure
Check: • This alarm is likely to occur when wiring is partially cut. (It is difficult to identify, even
when continuity is checked.) The detected discharge temperature is high.
Although such conditions rarely occur, a P02 alarm is likely if the detected discharge
6 temperature is low.
• Replace the sensor with another discharge sensor and compare the temperature conditions.
(5) Failure to open the service valve of the outdoor unit
Check open/closed status of the outdoor unit service valve.
(6) If the cause is still unknown after checking the above, there is possibility that electrical noise is the
cause of the trouble.

7 Correction (1) Replace the sensor.

(2) Replace the outdoor unit PCB.
(3) Correct the problem locations.

Blinking inspection display (1) (Automatic backup)

Alarm code (Blinking inspection display)
Alarm meaning Automatic backup is in progress. A/C units can be operated.
Status: The compressor at one of the outdoor units where the outdoor unit fan is running should
be operating.
* Blinking inspection display also occurs when seizing of the compressor magnet SW
is detected. Because this may also be the case, refer to “Blinking inspection display
(compressor magnet SW seizing detection).”
Alarm conditions When alarm P16, P22, P29, H03, Hx1, Hx2, or H31 has occurred, correcting the control device
(remote controller, etc.) input engages this mode.
Probable cause Because alarm P16, P22, P29, H03, Hx1, Hx2, or H31 has occurred, check the alarm history
then refer to the corresponding items.
Correction Follow the instructions in the corresponding items to correct the trouble.
Recovery After repairing the malfunctioning locations, reset the power for the system (all outdoor units).
Caution: Automatic backup mode will not be canceled until the power is reset.
Notes Automatic backup mode is not engaged in cases of alarms other than those listed above.
Reasons: • There is no need for automatic backup if recovery is possible by correcting the
remote controller input.
• With alarms for which automatic recovery is possible (such as sensor alarms), the
1
presence of electrical noise may result in a new alarm. However, it is believed that
this occurs for a comparatively short time only. In these cases, a mode (automatic
backup mode) that limits operation may be engaged.
• Control is not possible when a communications system alarm has occurred.
Automatic backup mode is not engaged in order to avoid causing secondary
damage.

Blinking inspection display (2) (compressor magnet SW seizing detection)

Alarm code (Blinking inspection display)
Alarm meaning Compressor magnet SW seizing detected
Status: Although an outdoor unit exists where the outdoor unit fan is running, no compressors in
the system are operating.
Because the fan is running only at the outdoor unit where seizing was detected, check
the corresponding outdoor unit.
* The fan may also run on its own when fan cracking prevention control is in effect
or when snowfall sensor input is present. Therefore monitor for approximately 10
minutes if the outdoor unit fans are operating at multiple units.

more continuing for 5 seconds.
• If the low-pressure switch has activated, the threshold for the detected current is 7A or more
continuing for 2 seconds.
Probable cause (1) Magnet SW malfunction
• The magnet SW has seized, and the compressor is continuing to run.
Õ Even when the power is turned OFF, the primary side and secondary side contacts
1 remain together.
• The conditions of magnet SW operation are poor (difficult to open).
Õ When a magnet SW is used in a DC circuit, it may be difficult for the SW to open at times.
In an AC circuit the magnet SW should open instantaneously as long as the current is
within the allowable range. However, this kind of trouble can occur if excessive current
flows, and may prevent the SW from opening.

2 (2) CT circuit failure or PCB failure (A/D failure)

• CT circuit contact failure
Õ Check that the connector is not partially disconnected.
Wiggle the connector to check the connection.*
* These symptoms will not occur if the connector is completely disconnected or the wire is
cut. In these cases alarm Hx3 occurs.

3
• Current of 7A or higher was detected although the compressor was stopped, or a higher
current was detected at occasional intervals.
• The compressor continues to operate at a time when the outdoor unit should be stopped
(such as when all indoor units are stopped).
Õ Check whether or not 220 - 240 V is output from the PCB to the magnet SW. If the voltage
is output, there is a PCB failure.
(3) Installation error
4 • CT2 connector is connected to the compressor 3 side
• CT2 circuit is connected to the compressor 3 side
• CT3 connector is connected to the compressor 2 side
• CT3 circuit is connected to the compressor 2 side
(4) Electrical noise
Correction (1) Replace the CT circuit.
5 (2) Replace the magnet SW.
(3) R
 eplace the PCB.
If the above probable causes are not the cause of the alarm, it is possible that in rare cases
the alarm may be caused by the effects of noise. See notes.
Notes The effects of electrical noise are difficult to identify unless a PC is connected and the conditions
are monitored for a long period of time.

Functions (for A747035)

Automatic address setting 2P plug (white): Automatic address setting pin

(CN30) • Short-circuit this pin for 1 second or longer to automatically set the addresses at the indoor
units that are connected to that outdoor unit and are within the same system.
• The system address is "1" at the time of shipment. Automatic address setting is necessary
even for communications lines in a single system where the inter-unit control wiring does
not cross to any other systems.
• While automatic address setting is in progress, the 2 LEDs (LED1, 2: red) on the outdoor
unit control PCB blink alternately. (Short-circuiting this pin while automatic address setting is
in progress will stop the automatic address setting operation.)

SW1 Rotary switch (10 positions, black): Outdoor system address setting switch
• The setting is "1" at the time of shipment. It is not necessary to change the setting if wiring
is connected only to an outdoor unit and indoor units in a single system and the inter-unit
control wiring does not cross multiple systems.
• If wiring links the inter-unit control wiring for multiple systems to the same communications
lines, then a different address must be set for each refrigerant tubing system.
• If wiring links multiple systems, a maximum of 30 systems (up to 64 indoor units) can be
connected. This setting can be set up to "39," however control will be for 30 systems even
if the setting is set to higher than 30. An alarm will be displayed if system addresses are
duplicated. (For details, refer to Table 1.)
1
SW2 DIP switch (2P, black): Switches for setting system address 10s digit and 20s digit
• If 10 systems or more are set, the setting is made by a combination of this DIP switch and
SW1.
• If 10 - 19 systems are set, set switch 1 (10s digit) to ON.
• If 20 - 29 systems are set, set switch 2 (20s digit) to ON, and set switch 1 (10s digit) to OFF.
• If 30 systems are set, set both switch 1 (10s digit) and switch 2 (20s digit) to ON. (For 2
details concerning SW1 and SW2, refer to Table 1.)

SW3 Rotary switch (10 positions, red): Switch for setting the number of connected indoor units. In
order to allow the outdoor unit to manage indoor units in the same refrigerant system, set the
number of connected indoor units. (For details, refer to Table 2.)
3
SW4 DIP switch (3P, blue): Switches for setting the 10s, 20s, and 30s digit for the number of
connected indoor units
• If 10 systems or more are set, the setting is made by a combination of this DIP switch and
SW3.
• If 10 - 19 systems are set, set only switch 1 (10s digit) to ON. 4
• If 20 - 29 systems are set, set switch 2 (20s digit) to ON, and set switch 1 (10s digit) to OFF.
• If 30 - 39 systems are set, set only switch 3 (30s digit) to ON. (For details concerning SW3
and SW4, refer to Table 2.)

SW6 DIP switch (3P, blue): Switch for setting the number of outdoor units
• Turn the switches ON according to the number of outdoor units (1 - 4). (For details, refer to
5
Table 3.)

SW5 DIP switch (3P, blue): Unit No. setting switch

• The setting is "1" at the time of shipment. (For details, refer to Table 4.)
6
SW7 DIP switch (4P, black): Backup operation switch
If an INV compressor has malfunctioned, turn CT1 ON and Back Up SW ON to operate the
outdoor unit using only the constant-speed compressor.
If a constant-speed compressor has malfunctioned, turn CT2 ON and Back Up SW ON to
operate the outdoor unit using only the INV compressor. (Disconnect the wiring from the
constant-speed compressor.) 7

1. Outdoor Unit Maintenance Remote Controller

1-1. Overview
About the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller

The outdoor unit utilizes non-volatile memory (EEPROM) on

its PCB. This allows EEPROM data to replace the setting
switches that were present on previous PCBs. The outdoor
unit maintenance remote controller is used to set and change
these EEPROM data.
In addition to setting and checking the outdoor unit EEPROM
data, this remote controller can also be used to monitor the
outdoor unit alarm history, monitor the various indoor and
outdoor temperatures, and check the indoor unit connection
status (number of units, operating mode, etc.).

NOTE CZ-RTC2
Ourdoor unit maintenance remote controller does not function as
an ordinary remote controller. It is therefore only used for test runs
and during servicing.
