11. Operation Control

11.1 Basic Function

Inverter control, which equipped with a microcomputer in determining the most suitable operation mode as time passes, automatically adjusts output power for maximum comfort always. In order to achieve the suitable operation mode, the microcomputer maintains the set temperature by measuring the temperature of the environment and performing temperature shifting. The compressor at outdoor unit is operating following the frequency instructed by the microcomputer at indoor unit that judging the condition according to internal setting temperature and intake air temperature.

11.1.1Internal Setting Temperature

Once the operation starts, remote control setting temperature will be taken as base value for temperature shifting processes. These shifting processes are depending on the air conditioner settings and the operation environment. The final shifted value will be used as internal setting temperature and it is updated continuously whenever the electrical power is supplied to the unit.

11.1.2Cooling Operation

11.1.2.1Thermostat control

Compressor is OFF when intake Air Temperature - Internal Setting Temperature < 29.3°F.

Compressor is ON after waiting for 3 minutes, if the Intake Temperature - Internal Setting Temperature > Compressor OFF point.

11.1.3Soft Dry Operation

11.1.3.1Thermostat control

Compressor is OFF when Intake Temperature - Internal Setting Temperature < 28.4°F.

Compressor is ON after waiting for 3 minutes, if the Intake Air Temperature - Internal Setting Temperature > Compressor OFF point.

11.1.3.2Automatic Operation

This mode can be set using remote control and the operation is decided by indoor intake air temperature.

During operation mode judgment at the beginning of the Auto Mode operation, indoor fan motor (with speed of Lo-) is running for 30 seconds to detect the indoor intake air temperature.

The operation mode is decided based on below chart.
