Essential Requirements before PBA Changes in Case of Communication Error Occurrence
1. Find the communication IC near the communication terminal.
● Indoor Unit
- Coil side or PTC (SMD) side : Communication IC between indoor and outdoor units.
● Outdoor Unit
-
When there is module communication as in PLUS II and PLUS III –
Above Red Connector of Main Unit : Communication IC between indoor and outdoor units.
- When there is no module communication as in PLUS II and PLUS III –
Above Yellow Connector of Each Unit : Communication IC between outdoor units.
-
Other Outdoor Unit- Above Communication Connector : Communication IC between indoor and outdoor unit.
Indoor Unit Outdoor Unit
Outdoor unit

Transmitter communication
2. Measure the resistance of the communication IC.
● Measurement Method : Measure the No.5- No.6 Pin resistance
Measure the No.5- No.7 Pin resistance
No.5
No.6
No.7
3.
Defectiveness decision of the communication IC which uses a measurement resistance value.
● Judging as Normal
- Each resistance value should be measured in tens of kΩ~to hundreds of kΩ.
- Difference between the two resistance values should be of some number of kΩ.
● Judging as defective
- One or both are low with tens of Ω
- One or both of them is open
