AE-200 thermostats reading Central in upper left corner and I can't adjust

0
1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
April 9, 2025

The Mitsubishi Electric AE-200A thermostat displays "Central" in the upper left corner and does not allow adjustments because it is under centralized control. This indicates that control of the indoor unit is being managed by the AE-200A centralized controller, and local operation or adjustments are restricted.
