8-2. Troubleshooting Method

The remote controllers (main remote controller and central control remote controller) and the interface P.C. board
of an outdoor unit are provided with an LCD display (remote controller) or a 7-segment display (outdoor interface
P.C. board) to display operational status. Using this self-diagnosis feature, the fault site/faulty part may be identified
in the event of a fault by following the method described below.
The list below summarizes check codes detected by various devices. Analyze the check code according to where it is displayed and work out
the nature of the fault in consultation with the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a display provided on the indoor remote controller or TCC-LINK central control remote controller -
See the "TCC-LINK remote control or main remote controller display" section of the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a display provided on an outdoor unit - See the "Outdoor 7-segment display" section of the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a display provided on the AI-NET central control remote controller - See the "AI-NET central control
display" section of the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a wireless remote controller-controlled indoor unit - See the "Light sensor indicator light block"
section of the list.

Description of error
Communication from remote controller or network
adaptor has been lost (so has central control
communication).
Signals are not being received from outdoor unit.
Indoor unit detects address identical to its own.
MCU communication between main controller and
motor microcontroller is faulty.
Periodic communication between indoor header
and follower units cannot be maintained.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TCJ) has
been open/short-circuited.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TC2) has
been open/short-circuited.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TC1) has
been open/short-circuited.
Ambient temperature sensor (TA) has been open/
short-circuited.
Discharge temperature sensor (TF) has been open/
short-circuited.
Indoor EEPROM is abnormal (some other error may
be detected).
There is more than one header unit in group.
There is at least one stand-alone indoor unit to
which group control cable is connected.
Address setting has not been performed for one or
more indoor units (also detected at outdoor unit
end).
Capacity setting has not been performed for indoor
unit.
There is duplication in central control address
setting.
Unit shutdown has been caused by external error
input (CN80).
Indoor AC fan error is detected (activation of fan
motor thermal relay).
Float switch has been activated.
Indoor DC fan error (e.g. overcurrent or lock-up) is
detected.
Follower unit cannot be operated due to header unit
alarm (E03/L03/L07/L08).
