6-1. External input
With using external input function, on/off status of "Low noise mode" and "Peak cut mode" can be
specified by the external signal.
¢ Low noise mode
In following condition, the operating noise of the outdoor unit reduces comparing from the one in nor-
mal operating condition:
The air conditioner is set to the "Low noise mode" when closing the contact input of a commercial
timer or on/off switch to a connector on the control PCB of the outdoor unit.
NOTE: Product performance may drop depending on some conditions such as the outdoor temper-
ature.
