Standard Control: Resistance 

In Resistance Control Mode the RTD-
10 Inputs allow individual control of 
a/c unit operating parameters using 
resistance values. Each input 
corresponds to a specific unit setting 
shown in the table below If an input is 
left unconnected then the 
corresponding setting will remain at 
the default value.

Caution

: Relays rated for maximum 1A, 24VAC/30VDC

Resistances should be /-250 ohms of the quoted value. Open circuit is R>200k

.

S1 in resistance mode is designed to be operated using a 

linear

 10k

 variable resistance.

It is recommended that volt-free contacts or switch mechanisms have gold plated contacts to ensure a low 
resistance circuit when the switch is made.

S1 to S6 cables should be 0.5 to 1.0 mm

 multi-stranded screened twisted pair. The screen should be earthed 

at one end only. The maximum distance from the RTD-10 to the input source is 200m.

MOUNTING PILLARS

The RTD-10 is supplied with 4 
mounting pillars that can be used to 
mount the interface within units with 
compatible mounting holes

SCREW MOUNTING

The RTD-10 can be mounted using 
screws of up to 5mm diameter. 

The RTD-10 can be mounted horizontally or vertically.

Power Supply

The RTD-10 requires a 15V to 24VDC power connection. Power can be 
supplied from VRV indoor unit PCB X18A connection , a Skyair indoor unit 
PCB X35A connection or VAM PCB X11A connection. A 1m cable and 
connector is supplied with the RTD-10.

RTD-10 Description

The RTD-10 is a monitoring and control interface for Daikin VRV and Skyair 
ranges of air-conditioners; and VAM and VKM ventilation units. The interface is 
compatible with all units that have a P1,P2 remote controller network 
connection and allows control of up to 16 units in a single group. 

Control Functions

HARDWIRED CONTROL.  Unit control can be achieved through resistance 
inputs using resistor, potentiometer and volt-free contact inputs.

BMS INTEGRATION.  Unit control can be achieved through 1-10V voltage 
inputs integrated with BMS control outputs.

HEATING INTERLOCK. Units can be interlocked with external heating 
systems.

DUTY/STANDBY. Multiple groups can be operated with rotating duty/standby 
with fault and high temperature alarming.

MODBUS CONTROL. The RTD supports the Modbus Protocol for network 
control and monitoring.

CUSTOM CONTROL. RTD interfaces can be supplied in custom configurations 
to suit specific applications.

                                                                                                         

Warnings and Cautions

Do not exceed the specified fault relay ratings

Observe precautions for handling Electrostatic 
Sensitive Devices

Installation and Operating Instructions

P1,P2 Network

Terminals P1, P2 connect to the Daikin P1, P2 network. P1,P2 installation 
should follow Daikin installation specifications. The RTD-10 can operate in 
Master or Slave mode with any Daikin remote controller. Operation is also 
possible without a remote controller being connected. Note that infra-red 
receivers must be configured to operate in slave mode.

The RTD-10 can be configured to operate in several different modes using the 
configuration DIP switches SW1.1 to SW1.4. In Standard Control the following 
combinations of modes are available:
