CONTROL OPERATION
1-1. COOLING AND DRY OPERATION

1-1-1. COOLING AND DRY CAPACITY CONTROL

A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit body will usually perceive
difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature, and controls
the operation speed of the compressor.
The outdoor unit operates according to the highest request capacity of indoor unit to meet the demand
capacity of all the indoor units.The capacity control of the low request capacity indoor unit is controlled
by Branch box EEV.

( Table 1 : Compressor speed range )

Minimum Maximum
AOU48RLXFZ1 18rps 90rps

< Target high pressure control >

The outdoor fan speed is controlled to keep the high pressure to the constant range for stabilizing
the distribution performance.

1-2-1. HEATING CAPACITY CONTROL

A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit body will usually perceive
difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature,
and controls the operation speed of the compressor.
The outdoor unit operates according to the highest request capacity of indoor unit to meet the demand

1-3. AUTO CHANGEOVER OPERATION

When the air conditioner is set to the Auto mode by remote controller, operation starts in the optimum
mode from among the Heating, Cooling, Dry and Monitoring mode. During operation, the
optimum mode is automatically switched in accordance with temperature changes. The temperature
can be set between 64°F(18°C) and 88°F(30°C) in 2°F(1°C) steps.

1 When operation starts, indoor fan and outdoor fan are operated for around 3 minutes.
Room temperature and outdoor temperature are sensed, and the operation mode is selected
in accordance with the table below. <Monitoring mode>
( Table 3 : Operation mode selection table )

*If it's Middle zone, operation mode of indoor unit is selected as below.
(1). Same operation mode is selected as outdoor unit.
If outdoor unit is operating in Cooling, Dry, and Heating mode,
indoor unit will be operated by the same operation mode.

(2). Selected by the outdoor temperature.

If outdoor unit is operating in other than Cooling, Dry, and Heating mode,
indoor unit will be operated according to the outdoor temperature as below.

2 When Cooling or Dry mode was selected at 1 and air flow mode is Auto, the air conditioner operates as follow.
The same operation as COOLING OPERATION AND DRY OPERATION of page 01-01 is performed.
When the room temperature has remained at set temperature -3°F(-1.5°C), operation is automatically
switched to Dry mode.
If the room temperature reaches set temperature +4°F(+2°C) during Dry mode, operation returns to Cooling.

 2. FAN OPERATION
The airflow can be switched in 5 steps such as Auto, Quiet, Lo, Me, Hi,
while the indoor fan only runs.
When Fan mode is set at (Auto), it operates on (Me) Fan Speed. < All models >

3. COOLING OPERATION (Auto : Cooling)

Switch the airflow [Auto], and the indoor fan will run according to a room temperature,
as shown in Fig 8.
On the other hand, if switched in [Hi] [Quiet], the indoor fan will run at a constant airflow of [Cooling]
operation modes Quiet, Lo, Me, Hi.

The maximum value of the indoor fan speed is set as shown in Fig .11, based on the detected
temperature by the indoor heat exchanger sensor in heating mode.
Field setting is necessary at AR and AU type as "Cool air prevention : effective"

< Pre-test run check items >

Before the test run, refer to the figure and check the following items.

1. Is check run performed? Test run doesn't operate if check run is not performed.
After checking that the above items are all in order, refer to Test run method "to test run the unit.
If there are problems, adjust immediately and recheck.

< Test run method >

Be sure to configure test run settings only when the outdoor unit has stopped operating.

• Depending on the communication status between the indoor and outdoor units, it may take several minutes for
the system to start operating after settings for the test run are complete.
• After the test run settings are complete, all the outdoor units and the connected indoor units will start operating.
Room temperature control will not activate during test run (continuous operation).
• Test run set with the outdoor unit doesn't stop automatically. Be sure to stop the operation according to the
operation method.
• All indoor units will operate when test run is performed from the outdoor unit. At this time, the remote controller of
the indoor unit is unavailable.
• Operation mode cannot be changed during the test run. To change the operation mode, please stop the test run
first, and then perform the test run again. At this time, the compressor cannot be restarted for three minutes after
it stops in order to protect the indoor unit. Please restarte it after three minutes.

With Wired Remote Controller

Under the condition where the air conditioner stops, press the MODE button and the FAN button
simultaneously for 2 seconds or more, and the test operation control mode will appear.

During test running, " " will display on the remote controller display.
Set the test operation mode, and the compressor will continue to run regardless of whatever
the room temperature sensor detects.

With Wireless Remote Controller

Under the condition where the air conditioner runs, press the TEST RUN button, and
the test operation control mode will appear.
During test running, the Operation LED and Timer LED of the air conditioner body blinks simultaneously.
Set the test operation mode, and the compressor will continue to run regardless of whether the room
temperature sensor detects.

4. CURRENT RELEASE CONTROL

The compressor speed is controlled so that the outdoor unit input current does not exceeds
the current limit value is decided by the outdoor temperature.

When "ECONOMY OPERATION" or "PEAK CUT OPERATION" are effective,

the outdoor unit will operate by lowest current.

When the outdoor unit input current reaches to the control value, the compressor speed
-1rps every 1 second till the release value.
Then, if the compressor operates at minimum speed and the input current doesn't reach
to the release value, the compressor is stopped.

Case3 : Error at construction
After performing the below-described work, repairs, inspections etc., always carry out the Check operation. Normal
operation will not be possible without performing the Check operation.
1. Things to comfirm before starting the Check operation
To ensure safety, check that the following work, inspections and operations have been completed.
1 Check that all work on the piping connecting the outdoor unit , indoor units and branch box
has been completed
2 Check that all work on the wiring connecting the outdoor unit, indoor units and branch box
has been completed
3 Is there a gas leakge? (At pipe connections {flang connections and brazed areas})
4 Is the system changed with the specifed volume of refrigerant?
5 Is a breaker installed at the power supply cable of outdoor unit and every branch boxes?
6 Are the wires connected to the terminals without looseness, and in accorodance with the specifications?
7 Is the 3-way valve of the outdoor unit open?(Gas pipe and liquid pipe)
8 Is power supplied to the crank case heater for more than 12 hours?
9 Has the power supply of the all indoor units turned off?(Remote controller)

2. Restrictions applicable when performing the Check operation

‡ When the Check run starts, all indoor units connected to the outdoor unit will start to run automatically. During
the Check run, you cannot check the operation of the indoor units separately. After the Check run, check the
operation of the indoor units separately in normal operation.
‡ The operable temperature ranges for the Check run are: external temperature -15 to 46ºC(5 to 115°F); room
temperature for cooling 18 to 46ºC(64 to 114°F); room temperature for heating -15 to 37ºC(5 to 98°F).
‡ In the check run, the conditioner will automatically switch between cooling and heating depending on the
external temperature and internal temperature.
If the external temperature or internal temperature is outside the above operable temperature range, wait until
the temperature is within the operable range and then perform the Check run.
‡ The Check run can be completed within 1 hour, but may take several hours depending on the external and
internal temperature conditions etc.
‡ Please do not conduct the Check run with all the windows in the room closed. Otherwise the room temperature
could get too low or too high.
‡ Depending on the difference of the room temperature of each room, a judgment may be impossible.
