 D  How to check miswiring and serial signal error

A

• Reinstall ei-

ther the unit 
or the light  
away from 
each other.

• Attach a fi lter 

on remote 
control 
receiving 
section of 
the indoor 
unit.

• Turn OFF inverter-controlled lighting 

equipment.

• Turn OFF the power supply and then 

turn ON again.

• Press the emergency operation switch.

After the relay 
52C is turned on 
3 minutes later, is 
miswiring or the 
serial signal error 
indicated?

No

B

Yes

1 Make sure that the wiring is correct. If the pro-

cedure is performed without correcting miswir-
ing, it may lead to damage to the P.C. board. 

3 Be sure to release the failure-mode recall function after checking.

Turn OFF the power supply.

Is there rated voltage in the 
power supply?

Yes

No

1. Turn ON the power supply.
2. Press the emergency operation switch.

Check the power supply.

Has the relay 52C been turned on 3 minuets later ?
[The relay will be turned on in 3 to 7 seconds by 
bridging the timer short mode point (Refer to 10-7.).]

Is there any miswiring, poor 
contact, or wire disconnec-
tion of the indoor/outdoor 
connecting wire?

Correct them.

No

Yes

Aim the remote controller at the indoor unit, and press 
STOP/OPERATE/ (OFF/ON) button. The relay 52C will 
be turned on, and the outdoor unit will be energized.

Is the rated supply voltage applied 
between the S1 and S2 on the 
outdoor terminal block? (Check of 
supply voltage) 

No

Is there any problem in the 
indoor/outdoor connecting wire, 
such as the damage of the wire, 
intermediate connection, poor 
contact with the terminal block?

Yes

Replace 
the indoor/
outdoor con-
necting wire.

No

Replace the indoor electronic control 
P.C. board.   3

Is there approximately 250 V DC – 
370 V DC between DB61 (+) and 
DB61 (–) on the inverter P.C. board 
in the outdoor unit? (Voltage check of 
the inverter P.C. board in the outdoor 
unit) 

No

Replace the 
inverter P.C. 
board in the 
outdoor unit.  2

Yes

Yes

Does the LED on the inverter P.C. 
board in the outdoor unit repeat 
"3.6-second-OFF and 0.8-second-
ON quick blinking" for 3 minutes 
after the outdoor unit is energized? 
(Check the blinking pattern within 3 
minutes after LED is turned on. Af-
ter 3 minutes, LED will blink 6 times 
whether the inverter P.C. board in 
the outdoor unit is normal or not.)

No

Replace the 
inverter P.C. 
board in the 
outdoor unit.  2

Yes

A

2 Be careful of 140 

V DC – 280 V DC 
residual charge in 
the capacitor on the 
main inverter circuit.

B

Turn OFF the power supply. Make sure again that the 
indoor/outdoor connecting wire is correctly connected. 
With the indoor/outdoor connecting wire connected, bridge 
between S2 and S3 on the outdoor terminal block.  1
<Preparation of the remote controller>

 While pressing both OPERATION SELECT button and 

TOO COOL button on the remote controller at the same 
time, press RESET button.

 First, release RESET button. 

  Hold down the other 2 buttons for another 3 seconds. 

Make sure that the indicators on the LCD screen shown in 
the right fi gure are all displayed. Then release the buttons.

Initializing the determination of the power 
receiving system

The microprocessor may have mistaken the 
unit as a model receiving power from the 
outdoor unit. Follow the procedure below to 
start the determination of the power receiv-
ing system all over again.
1. Hold down the emergency operation 

switch for 30 seconds. (Do not release the 
switch even though a buzzer beeps once 
in about 5 seconds. Keep holding down 
the switch until a buzzer beeps again for 
1 second after 30 seconds. Figure 1) 

2. Turn off the power supply.
3. Wait for about 30 seconds.
4. Turn on the power supply.
5. Press the emergency operation switch.
6. The relay 52C will be turned on in 3 min-

utes.
