4. Sending Commands from Controller
The operation commands are sent by
pressing the required operation switch by
facing the transmitter of the controller toward
the receiver of the indoor unit.
(1) When the commands are sent,
the “ ” indication on the liquid
crystal display of the controller ashes
once.
(2) The indication lamp (yellow) on the
receiver part of the indoor unit turns
ON for an instant when the indoor unit
receives the commands.
ATTENTION:
In case that the indication lamp (yellow) does not turn ON although the commands are sent, the
commands are not received by the indoor unit. In such a case, send the commands again.
ATTENTION:
The transmitter of the controller has the vertical directivity to the receiver, and the permissible
angle for transmitting is within 50o. However, the capable distance for transmitting gets half when
the transmitting angle is 50o, and also get shorter in case that an electronic type light is used in
the room.
NOTE:
The above gure shows the case of a 4-way cassette type indoor unit. The gures for other models are
different partially.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) Indication
When viewed from certain angles the LCD can be difcult to read.
The viewing angle ranges from an optimal of 60o down to 30o, as
shown in the diagram on the right. If the viewing angle is below
30o, the indications not displayed are slightly faded so that makes
the indication be hardly readable. It is the characteristics of this
LCD, which is not abnormality.

ATTENTION:
In case that two indoor units are installed side by side, the commands from the controller may be
received by both indoor units. The function to identify each indoor unit not applicable.
The item 5 “ Identifying Indoor Units Side by Side Operation” shall be set if recognition is
required.
Turn OFF the power source completely before performing the dip switch setting for receiver kit.
If not, it may cause an electric shock.
In the case that two indoor units are installed side by
side, the commands from the wireless remote control
switch may be received by both indoor units. The
function, “Identifying of Indoor Units Installed Side by
Side” enables to operate the individual unit correctly
without interfering other unit’s operation. As shown in
the right gure, the indoor units of A and B are set side
by side. In this case, the unit B is set as “Identifying
Indoor Units Installed Side by Side”.
NOTE:
This function is required to set at the receiver side. It
shall be set according to the installation manual of the
receiver kit or the indoor unit.
< Setting of Identifying of Indoor Units Installed Side by Side >
(1) Press and hold “ON TIME” switch and “OFF TIME” switch of the
wireless remote control switch simultaneously for 3 seconds.
The “b” is indicated on the liquid crystal display for 3 seconds.
(2) When the above procedure (1) is performed, only the identied
indoor unit (B unit) operation is available. The indoor unit A does not
correspond to the commands from the identied wireless remote
controller.
< Cancellation of Identifying of Indoor Units Installed Side by Side >
Press the “ON TIME” switch and the “OFF TIME” switch
simultaneously for more than 3 seconds. The “A” is indicted on the

medical equipment radiating electromagnetic waves.
(1) Install the controller in a place where electromagnetic waves are not radiated directly toward the
electrical box of the indoor unit and the controller.
(2) Keep a distance more than 3 meters away from the equipment radiating electromagnetic waves, the
receiver of the radio, etc. for prevention of the noise through the air.
(3) In case that there is electric noise at the power source for the indoor unit, the treatment such as
providing a noise lter is required.
3) Do not install the controller in a place where generation, owing, staying or leaking of ammable gas is
detected.
4) Install the controller in a place where there is a distance more than 30cm from the power supply cable
when installing the controller onto the wall.
