5-2-6 Setting the Outdoor Unit Control Method (All methods)
Make the energy-save control setting for the outdoor units for each energy-save level.
Note: M-NET addresses are displayed on outdoor units of City multi type. M-NET addresses and group names are displayed on
A-control units (Slim units).
Note: As for A-control outdoor units, only the inverter models can be put on the energy save control. Do not make the energy save
settings for the constant speed models.
(1) Set the maximum operating capacity at each level.
Normally, outdoor units operate at 100% capacity.
The smaller the maximum operating capacity, the
more energy will be saved.
Note: Energy-saving effects cannot be expected when the
outdoor units are running with low load and are
operating below the set capacity level.
Note: Do not use the capacity-save control with
heat-accumulating units (ICE-Y) or Multi S units. On
these units, always set the capacity to “100%.”
(2) Set the control time at each level. When a capacity-save control over outdoor units is performed, it is
recommended that the control time be set to either 30 or 15 minutes, for shorter control time is not likely to
bring much benefit.
If any time other than “30-minute” is selected, the control is done on rotation so as to avoid the overlapping
of control time of the connected outdoor units as much as possible.
(3) To copy the settings for a certain outdoor unit to another outdoor unit, click [Copy] so the selected items are
shown in yellow-green, and click [Paste] on the screen for the target outdoor unit.
To make settings for all the outdoor units at once, check [Batch Operations], and enter the settings.
Uncheck [Batch Operations] by clicking on the box again to enable the individual setting of the outdoor
units.
