remote controller kit, Installation Manual and Owner’s Manual of the 4-way cassette
type air conditioner (indoor unit), or the installation manual supplied with the ceiling
panel.
Accessories
Settings for the signal receiving unit before installation
Before installing the signal receiving unit, make the following settings referring to each
description.
• To install the wireless remote controller together with wired remote controller
,
configure the “Multiple remote controller installation”
• When ceiling height exceeds the standard height (factory default), refer to the
"Installing indoor unit on high ceiling" on installation manual of the indoor unit.
How to install the signal receiving unit
Install the signal receiving unit
in correct orientation, since
the signal receiving unit can
be installed at only one corner
as shown in (Fig. 1).
1.
Remove the air intake grille.
2.
Remove the adjust corner
cap at the corner where the
signal receiving unit is to be
installed. (Fig. 2)
Pull the knob of the adjust corner cap in the arrow
1
direction. Remove the adjust
corner cap.
* The knob is provided only on one side of the cap. Be sure to detach the cap from the
knob side.
3.
A pad is packed in the two rectangular holes (indoor unit side and signal receiving
unit side) for ceiling panel wires. Remove the pads temporarily, and pass the wires
from the wireless signal receiving unit through the rectangular holes. (Fig. 3)
4.
After the wiring is completed following “How to wire the signal receiving unit” below
without slack of the wires, pull the black pad that covers the wire by approx. 20 mm
out of the rectangular hole on the indoor unit side, and then clamp the wires with the
supplied clamp tightened with the screw. Then return the packing removed from the
rectangular hole on the signal receiving unit to the original position. (Fig. 3)
* Securely position the black pad and fix the packing. Failure to do so may cause water
leakage or dew drop on the unit and wires.

Clamp
Remove the pad from the
rectangular hole on the signal
receiving unit side, clamp the
wires with the clamp, secure the
clamp with the M4 x 12 mm
screw, and then return the pad to
the original position.
Pull the black pad that covers the wire
by approx. 20 mm out of the hole.
Remove the pad from the
rectangular hole on the indoor
unit side.
(Fig. 3)
5.
Attach the signal receiving unit to the ceiling panel, while taking care not to catch the
wires. (Fig. 4)
• Push the three claws of the adjust corner cap firmly as far as they will go. Failure to
do so may result in water leakage.
Note:
Do not bundle these control signal wires with the power wire to avoid
malfunction.
How to wire the signal receiving unit
<Connection diagram>
<Connection>
Connect the wires from the signal receiving unit to the remote controller connection
terminal block of the indoor unit. (The terminals are nonpolar.)
• Clamp the redundant portion of the wires with the clamps in the electrical control box.
Multiple remote controller installation
The control by two remote controllers is enabled by installing the wireless remote
controller with the wired remote controller for an indoor unit.
(Max. 2 remote controllers of wireless or wired are insatiable.)
“2-remote controllers” controlling means that one or multiple units are operated by the
multiple remote controllers.
Note:
1.
Upon confirmation of the terminal numbers of the indoor unit, connect the control
wire without miswiring. (If applied 220 - 240 V, damage the unit.)
2.
The multiple wireless remote controller kits cannot concurrently be used for an
indoor unit.
3.
When installing simultaneously the wireless remote controller with the wired remote
controller, set one of them as the follower remote controller.
• To use wired remote controller or Lite-vision plus remote controller as a follower,
settings must be changed. For the details, refer to the installation manual of each
controller.
• To use the wireless remote controller as a follower, set bit 4 (Follower side) of DIP
switch SW30 on the signal receiving unit P.C. board to ON.
2-remote controllers
The indoor unit is operated if either wireless or wired remote controller is set as header
or follower remote controller.
(Total wire length: Within 400 m)
Rectangular holes
Claws
Insert the two claws on the adjust corner
cap (with signal receiving unit) into the
rectangular holes of the ceiling panel in
the arrow direction.
Push the adjust corner cap in the arrow
directions so that the three claws are
fitted.

Remote controller address (A-B selection) setting
• When two or more signal receiving units are installed in a room, a unique address
can be set for each signal receiving unit to prevent interference.
• Address (A-B selection) must be changed on both signal receiving unit and wireless
remote controller.
• For the details of address change (A-B selection) on wireless remote controller, refer
to the owner's manual.
Turn off the indoor unit power supply. Turn on the bit 4 of DIP switch SW30 on the
signal receiving unit P.C. board.
The setting change is shown below.

Test run (Forced cooling operation)
Requirement:
• Finish the forced cooling operation in a short time because it applies excessive
strength to the air conditioner.
How to perform forced cooling operation
1.
When TEMPORARY button is pushed for 10 seconds or more, “Pi!” sound is heard
and the operation changes to a forced cooling operation. After approx. 3 minutes, a
cooling operation starts forcedly.
Check cool air starts blowing. If the operation does not start, check wiring again.
2.
To stop a test operation, push TEMPORARY button once again (Approx. 1 second).
• Check wiring / piping of the indoor and outdoor units in forced cooling operation.
