[2] Controlling the Outdoor Unit 1. Initial control • When the power is turned on, the initial processing of the microcomputer is given top priority. • During the initial processing, control processing of the operation signal is suspended. The control processing is resumed after the initial processing is completed.
Page 72
4. Frequency control • Depending on the capacity required, the frequency of the compressor is controlled to keep constant the evap- oration temperature (0˚C = 0.71MPa) during cooling operation and condensing temperature (49˚C = 2.88MPa) during heating operation. • The capacity of the P200-P400 is controlled solely by the inverter-driven compressor, and the capacity of P450-P650 is controlled by No.1 and No.2 compressors.
Page 73
5. Defrost operation control (1) Starting the defrost operation • Defrost operation is started when the pipe temperature (TH5) of -10˚C or below (-8˚C or below for P400- type and above) has continuously been detected for 3 minutes after the integrated compressor operation time of 50 minutes have passed.
Page 74
6. Refrigerant recovery control • Recovery of refrigerant is performed during heating operation to prevent the refrigerant from accumulating inside the unit while it is stopped (unit in fan mode), or inside the indoor unit that is in cooling mode or in heat- ing mode with thermo off.

Set SW1 as shown below to display the high and low pressure sensor data displayed digitally by the light emitting diode LD1.
Page 137
2. Low-pressure pressure sensor (63LS) Conduct the check comparing the pressure that is detected by the low-pressure pressure sensor and the low-pressure gauge pressure. The pressure that is detected by the low-pressure pressure sensor will be displayed on the LED screen, LD1 when setting the digital shift switch (SW1) as shown below.
Page 138
3. Solenoid valve Check if the control board’s output signals and the operation of the solenoid valves match. Setting the self-diagnosis switch (SW1) as shown in the figure below causes the ON signal of each relay to be output to the LED’s. Each LED shows whether the relays for the following parts are ON or OFF.
