PC configurator
For VRV IV heat pump system it is alternatively possible to make
several commissioning field settings through a personal computer
interface (for this, option EKPCCAB is required). The installer can
prepare the configuration (off-site) on PC and afterwards upload the
configuration to the system.

unit"on page23.
Mode 1 and 2
Mode Description
Mode 1
(monitoring
settings)
Mode1 can be used to monitor the current
situation of the outdoor unit. Some field setting
contents can be monitored as well.
Mode 2
(field settings)
Mode2 is used to change the field settings of
the system. Consulting the current field setting
value and changing the current field setting
value is possible.
In general, normal operation can be resumed
without special intervention after changing field
settings.
Some field settings are used for special
operation (e.g., 1 time operation, recovery/
vacuuming setting, manual adding refrigerant
setting, etc.). In such a case, it is required to
abort the special operation before normal
operation can restart. It will be indicated in
below explanations.

Operate the switches and push buttons with an insulated stick (such
as a closed ball-point pen) to avoid touching of live parts.
Make sure to re-attach the inspection cover into the electronic
component box cover and to close the front plate's inspection cover
after the job is finished. During operation of the unit the front plate of
the unit should be attached. Settings are still possible to be made
through the inspection opening.

Initialisation: default situation
NOTICE
Be sure to turn on the power 6 hours before operation in
order to have power running to the crankcase heater and
to protect the compressor.
Turn on the power supply of the outdoor unit and all indoor units.
When the communication between indoor units and outdoor unit(s) is
established and normal, the 7‑segment display indication state will
be as below (default situation when shipped from factory).
Stage Display
When turning on the power supply: flashing as
indicated. First checks on power supply are
executed (1~2min).
When no trouble occurs: lighted as indicated
(8~10min).
Ready for operation: blank display indication as
indicated.
7‑segment display indications:
Off
Blinking
On
When above situation cannot be confirmed after 12 min, the
malfunction code can be checked on the indoor unit user interface
and the outdoor unit 7‑segment display. Solve the malfunction code
accordingly. The communication wiring should be checked at first.
