It is not necessary to build the electric circuit with 230 V AC. Any other suitable lower voltage being available on site may be used as well. Method A: For standard fan control For systems with standard fan control, the external signal lines can simply be connected to the contacts provided by the AHU Kit.

    Test Run Test Run After installation and before operation of the system, perform a test run according to the Test Run section in the Installation Instructions of the relevant outdoor unit. If alarm messages are indicated on the outdoor unit PCB (by blinking LEDs) or on the wired remote controller, refer to the Alarm Messages section in the Installation Instructions for the relevant out- door unit.
