Abnormal outdoor unit capacity. Outdoor unit capacity >54 HP.
3b
Voltage or combination of outdoor unit models 
incorrectly set
Voltage or combination of secondary and main units 
incorrectly set.
3d
Abnormal transmission between the main unit 
and the secondary unit(s)
Incorrect wiring, disconnected wiring, broken cable, PCB 
fault.
43
Protection device
Low-pressure decrease protection device activa-
tion
Defective compression (compressor or inverter fault, 
loose power supply connection).
44
Low-pressure increase protection device activa-
tion
Overload during cooling, high temperature with heating, 
locked expansion valve (loose connector).
45
High pressure increase protection device activa-
tion
Overload (clogging, short pitch), pipe clogging, excess 
refrigerant, mixture of inert gas.
47
Low-pressure decrease protection device activa-
tion (vacuum protection)
Insufcient refrigerant, refrigerant pipes, clogging, ex-
pansion valve locked in open position (loose connector).
48
Inverter overcurrent protection device activation Overload, compressor fault.
51
Inverter

voltage and short-circuit protection).
54
Abnormal inverter n temperature
Abnormal inverter n thermistor, heat exchanger clog-
ging, fan motor fault.
55
Inverter fault Inverter PCB fault.
57
Fan controller
Fan controller protection activation

voltage and short-circuit protection), instant overcurrent.
5A
Abnormal fan controller n temperature
Fin thermistor fault, heat exchanger clogging, fan motor 
fault.
5b
Overcurrent protection activation Fan motor fault.
5C
Abnormal fan controller sensor

temperature, low voltage, earthing fault, step-out).
b1
Outdoor unit 
number setting
Unit number or address number of the outdoor 
unit incorrectly set
A number greater than 64 has been set for the refriger-
ant cycle or address.
b5
Indoor unit number 
setting

set
There are more than 17 units not corresponding to H-
LINK II connected to one system.
C1
CH unit
Incorrect indoor unit connection
There are 2 or more CH units connected between the 
outdoor and indoor units.
C2

unit
C3
Incorrect indoor unit connection
Indoor units from different refrigerant cycles have been 
connected to the CH unit.
