Connecting the Cables to the Indoor Unit.

• Connect the cables to the indoor unit by connecting the wires to the terminals on the control board
dividually according to the outdoor unit connection. (Ensure that the color of the wires of the outdoor unit and the
terminal No. are the same as those of the indoor unit.)
• Before connecting the cables to the terminal block, remove the cables in the holder of the control cover and
do it.

CAUTION:
• The above circuit diagram is subject to change without notice.
• The earth wire should be longer than the common wires.
• When installing, refer to the circuit diagram behind the panel front of the indoor unit.
• Connect the wires firmly so that they may not be pulled out easily.
• Connect the wires according to color codes, referring to the wiring diagram.

CAUTION: After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as
follows:
1) Never fail to have an individual power circuit specifically for the air conditioner. As for the method of wiring,
be guided by the circuit diagram posted on the inside of control cover.
2) The screw which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liable to come loose from vibrations
to which the unit is subjected during the course of transportation. Check them and make sure that they are
all tightly fastened. (If they are loose, it could cause burn-out of the wires.)
3) Specification of power source.
4) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
5) See to that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage marked on the
name plate.
6) Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power source specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness. (Refer to page 17)
7) Always install an earth leakage circuit breaker in a wet or moist area.
8) The following would be caused by voltage drop.
• Vibration of a magnetic switch, which will damage the contact point, fuse breaking, disturbance of the normal func-
tion of the overload.
9) The means for disconnection from a power supply shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring and have an air
gap contact separation of at least 3mm in each active(phase) conductors.

6. When Vertical Louver does not operate.

• Confirm that the Vertical Louver is normally geared with the shaft of
Stepping Motor.
• If the regular torque is detected when rotating the Vertical Louver with
hands Normal

• Check the connecting condition of CN-U/D, CN-L/R Connector

• Check the soldering condition(on PWB) of CN-U/D, CN-L/R Connector

Check the operating circuit of the Vertical Louver

• Confirm that there is DC +12V between pin (RED) of CN-U/D, CN-L/R

and GND.
• Confirm that there is a soldering short at following terminals.
- Between 62 , 61 , 60 and 59 of MICOM
- Between 57 , 56 , 55 and 54 of MICOM
- Between 51 , 50 , 49 and 48 of MICOM
- Between 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 and 5 of CN-U/D, CN-L/R

If there are no problems after above checks

• Confirm the assembly conditions that are catching and interfering parts in
the rotation radial of the Vertical Louver

7. When a comunication error occurs.

• The operation indicator of Indoor unit blinks five times.

• The red indicator of Outdoor unit blinks five times.

Check the connecting wires between Indoor and Outdoor unit for the
connecting error and the contacting condition.

Check the installation condition of outdoor unit.

Check for the communication error and the operating condition of product
after also operating with the remote controller, then taking above 2 minutes.

Apply the power again after about 10 seconds by the power of Outdoor unit
is off.

Check for the communication error and the operating condition of product
after also operating with the remote controller, then taking above 2 minutes.

Check the PWB assembly of Indoor and Outdoor unit.

Caution: If the connecting wires of Indoor and Outdoor unit are not connected within 2 minutes after the power
of Outdoor unit is applied, a communication error will occur. Therefore, the power should be applied
after connecting them.
