• Before installing the wiring, switch off the power supply to the air conditioning system and central control unit. Installing the wiring while
the central control power supply is switched on may cause the central control unit to malfunction.
• Check to ensure that the wiring is correct. Incorrect wiring may cause malfunction of the central station.
• DO NOT run all the transmission cable for the central station along the power line and other transmission cables, or malfunction may
occur due to the noise, etc. If the transmission cable for the central station is required to be run along the power line and other trans-
mission cables, separate the cable more than 30 cm away from other cables, or run the cable through a metal tube and earth the tube.
• In case of applying high voltage to the TB2, the fuse on the PCB is blown out.
In such a case, firstly correct the wiring to TB1, and then set Nº.2 pin ON.

• Zone: Operation unit with Plural Groups. Up to 16 groups as maximum can be set in one zone. The central station
can control up to 4 zones.
• Remote control switch group: Unit of plural indoor units (max. 16 units). Connected with Transmission Line of Remote
Control Switch. In this group the indoor units are under the same control setting.
