of microcomputer.
●
As the microcomputer’s outputs change as shown in Fig.4-2, the core of the auto sweep motor is excited
to turn the rotor. Table 4-1 shows the rotation angle of horizontal air deflectors.

●
The air deflectors are driven by the stepping motors, which are instructed by the microcomputer.
●
The air deflectors on the left and right are each driven by two stepping motors.
●
The stepping motors and main unit are connected via relay connectors. The air deflectors will not operate
unless the relay connectors are connected: Securely connect the relay connectors identified by colors
when attaching the panel.
●
Before removing the panel for servicing, be sure to disconnect the relay connector to protect the lead
wires.
