If a cable poorly inserted in the indoor terminal board or some other failure overheats the terminal board and the
temperature fuse of the terminal board blows out, the power to the indoor communication circuit will be shut down to stop
the communications function. (In that case, the failure will be displayed by the timer lamp blinking 3 times.)
If communication fails between the indoor and outdoor units for some reason, the product will give a self-diagnosis
display either by "the timer lamp blinking 3 times" or "the timer lamp blinking 12 times" depending on the cause.
·
Indoor and outdoor communications are conducted by using lines 2 and 3 of F cable. Line 2 of F cable is shared with a
transmission channel that powers the outdoor unit.
·
Data communicated between the indoor and outdoor units are outputted from the microcomputer as serial signals and are
transmitted as demodulated by a 30 kHz carrier wave. (Both the indoor and outdoor microcomputers directly output a signal
demodulated at 30 kHz.)
