• Check that the wiring for the power supply is connected to the wall plug.
• Check that the power supply is turned ON.
• The touchscreen enters in sleep mode automatically when the touchscreen is not
operated for a given length of time. Tap the screen to wake it up.
• There may be dead pixels on the LCD. This is not faulty.
• When the central station is used for a long time, the touchscreen may not match
the position of display indication.
Refer to section "Calibration of the touchscreen".
• Check if the air conditioner unit is in heat storage mode. The air conditioner can-
not operate while the heat storage unit is operating (with the exception of heat
storage units which explicitly allow simultaneous operation).
• When the operation mode is "AUTO", the direction of the louvre is automatically
corrected depending on the indoor unit model.
• Check if the holiday setting is turned ON.
If so, cancel the holiday setting following the instructions of section "Holiday set-
ting for suspending operation".
• Check if the setting of scheduled operation is turned OFF.
If so, the scheduled operation should be turned ON following the instructions of
section "Schedule timer ON/OFF setting".
• Date and time appear as "- -" when the electrical power is suspended for a pro-
longed period. Set date and time again following the instructions of section "Ad-
justing Date/Time".
• It may happen that the air conditioners do not respond to the orders of the central
station immediately after power ON, because the starting process of the air condi-
tioners has priority. Wait for a brief time before attempting operation again.
• Check if exception settings for Run/Stop operation are being selected. If so, can-
cel the settings.
• There is the possibility that the power supply was not stable when recovering from
a power failure. Perform control operation from this controller to make the state of
the remote control switch to match.
