( ) Address
<Wiring Method and Address Settings>
a. Always use shielded wire when making connections between the heat source unit (OC) and the indoor unit (IC), as well for all OC-OC, and IC-IC wiring intervals.
b. Use feed wiring to connect terminals M1 and M2 and the earth terminal on the transmission cable terminal block (TB3) of each heat source unit (OC) to terminals M1,
M2 and terminal S on the transmission cable block of the indoor unit (IC).
c.
Connect terminals 1 (M1) and 2 (M2) on the transmission cable terminal block of the indoor unit (IC) that has the most recent address within the same group to the
terminal block on the remote controller (RC).
d. Connect together terminals M1, M2 and terminal S on the terminal block for central control (TB7) for the heat source unit (OC).
e. On one heat source unit only, change the jumper connector on the control panel from CN41 to CN40.
f.
Connect the terminal S on the terminal block for central control (TB7) for the heat source unit (OC) for the unit into which the jumper connector was inserted into CN40
in Step above to the ground terminal
in the electrical component box.
g. Set the address setting switch as follows.
*
To set the outdoor unit address to 100, the outdoor address setting switch must be set to 50.
Unit
Range
Setting Method
IC (Main)
01 to 50
Use the most recent address within the same group of indoor units. With an R2 system with sub BC controllers, set the
indoor unit address in the following order:
1
Indoor units connected to the main BC controller
2
Indoor units connected to BC sub controller 1
3
Indoor units connected to BC sub controller 2
Set the indoor unit addresses so that all the addresses of
1
are smaller than those of
2
, and that all the addresses of
2
are smaller than those of
3
.
IC (Sub)
01 to 50
Use an address, other than that of the IC (Main) from among the units within the same group of indoor units. This must be
in sequence with the IC (Main)
Heat source Unit
51 to 100
Use the most recent address of all the indoor units plus 50
BC controller (Main)
51 to 100
Heat source unit address plus 1. When the set indoor unit address duplicates the address of another indoor unit, set the
new address to a vacant address within the setting range.
BC controller (Sub)
51 to 100
Lowest address within the indoor units connected to the BC controller (sub) plus 50
M-NET R/C (Main)
101 to 150
Set at an IC (Main) address within the same group plus 100
M-NET R/C (Sub)
151 to 200
Set at an IC (Main) address within the same group plus 150
