Function
1.3 Master and slave Unit's EEV control
(1) Main EEV control
Main EEV operates with fuzzy control rules to keep the degree of super Heat(Superheat) (about 3°C or
6°F)at the evaporator outlet stable during heating mode
The degree of Superheat = Tsuction - Tevaporation
Tsuction : temperature at suction pipe sensor(°C,°F)
Tevaporation : evaporation temperature equivalent to low pressure(°C,°F)

(2) Subcooling EEV control(about 15°C or 30°F)

Subcooling EEV works with fuzzy rules to keep the degree of Subcool at the outlet of subcooler during
cooling mode
The degree of Subcool = Tcondensation - Tliquid
Tliquid : temperature at outlet of subcooler(°C,°F)
Tcondensation : condensation temperature equivalent to high pressure(°C,°F)

(3) Avoiding excessive high discharge temperature : when main EEV opens some given opening (R410A :
800 pls) and discharge temperature is above 85°C(185°F) in heating operation, subcooling EEV may con-
trol the "subcooling out temperature-evaporating temperature" to be some given difference.

2) Step 2 : Communication check
- If all model code is displayed in 7 segment including all Slave unit,
communication between Outside units is normal.
- If 104* is displayed in 7-segment, check communication wires between Outside units and Dip switch setting.

3) Step 3 : PCB error check

- After 40 sec, error check begins.

n Master/ Slave unit

- All errors of units including Slave units are displayed in 7 segment.
- If communication between main PCB and inverter PCB isn't normal, 52* is displayed in 7-segment
If error is displayed, check corresponding wires.

4) Step 4 : Auto addressing of indoor units

- Auto addressing begins when address(red) button in Main PCB is pressed for 6 sec.
- During auto addressing, 7 segment on main PCB displays "88"
- After auto addressing, the number of indoor units is displayed in 7 segment for 30 sec. The address of each
indoor unit is displayed on each wired remote controller.

Test Run
1. Checks Before Test Run

1 Check to see whether there is any refrigerant leakage, and slack of power or communication cable.

2 Confirm that 500 V megger shows 2.0 MΩ or more between power supply terminal block and ground.
Do not operate in the case of 2.0 MΩ or less.
NOTE: Never carry out megaohm check over terminal control board. Otherwise the control board
would be broken.
Immediately after mounting the unit or after leaving it turned off for an extended length of time,
the resistance of the insulation between the power supply terminal board and the ground may
decrease to approx. 2 MΩ as a result of refrigerant accumulating in the internal compressor.
If the insulation resistance is less than 2 MΩ, turning on the main power supply and energizing
the crankcase heater for more than 6 hours will cause the refrigerant to evaporate, increasing
the insulation resistance.

3 Check if high/low pressure common pipe, liquid pipe and gas pipe valves are fully opened.
NOTE: Be sure to tighten caps.

4 Check if there are any problems in automatic addressing or not:

Check and confirm that there are no error messages in the display of indoor units or remote controls
and LED in Outside units.

CAUTION
when cutting main power of the Multi V Water4
• Always apply main power of the Outside unit during use of product
(cooling season/heating season).
• Always apply power before 4 hours to heat the crank case heater where performing test run after
installation of product. It may result in burning out of the compressor if not preheating the crank
case with the electrical heater for more than 4 hours.(In case of the outdoor temperature below 10°C)

CAUTION
Preheat of compressor
• Start preheat operation for 4 hours after supplying main power.
• In case that the outdoor temperature is low, be sure to supply power 4 hours before operation so
that the heater is heated(insufficient heating may cause damage of the compressor.)

[Cautions when measuring voltage and current of inverter power circuit]

Measuring values may differ depending on measuring tools and measuring circuits since voltage, current in the
power supply or output side of the inverter has no since waveform.
Especially, output voltage changes when output voltage of the inverter has a pattern of pulse wave.
In addition, measuring values appear largely differently depending on measuring tools.
1) If using a movable tester when checking that output voltage of the inverter is constant (when comparing rela-
tive voltage between lines), always use an analog tester. Especially exercise particular caution if the output
frequency of the inverter is low, when using a movable tester, where change of measured voltage values is
large between other lines, when virtually same values appear actually or where there is danger to determine
that failure of the inverter occurred.
2) You can use rectification voltmeter ( ) if using commercial frequency tester when measuring output values
of the inverter (when measuring absolute values). Accurate measuring values cannot be obtained with a gen-
eral movable tester (For analog and digital mode).

2.5 Pressure Sensor(High/Low Pressure Sensor)

Connect manifold gauge to the service valve of Outside unit, and compare the output of high pressure sensor to
the output of low pressure sensor to detect the defect.
below) Compare the output of pressure sensor to the output of manifold gauge pressure using the table below.
Read the pressure clearly between black and white as the composition of pressure sensor.

<Low Pressure Sensor> <High Pressure Sensor>

OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS

1) If the pressure of manifold gauge is 0~1kg/cm2, it indicates the pressure got lower due to the leakage of refriger-
ant. Find the place of leakage and fix it.
2) If the difference of the outputs of high and low pressure is in the range of 1kg/cm2, the pressure sensor is normal.
3) If the difference of the outputs of high and low pressure is over 1kg/cm2, the pressure sensor is out of order, it
need to be replaced.
4) The composition of pressure sensor

High Pressure Sensor : 0~5MPa

Pressure Vout 0.5~3.5V
sensor Low Pressure Sensor : 0~2MPa
Vout 0.5~3.5V
(Red)
±5%
(White)
(Black)

The pressure sensor is composed like the circuit picture shown above. If DC 5V voltage flows on red and black
wire, voltage would be made between the white and black wire. The pressure which is equivalent to the pressure
output is shown in the table above.

number of communication is not increased with LGMV
• Although the quantity of indoor units installed is not same as LGMV data, and if communication of the indoor unit dis-
played at LGMV is done well then the indoor unit suspected to have some problem (and is not appear at LGMV) may
have following problems
¿ wrong connection of communication cable or power cable

• If communication is not doing well wholly then the Auto Addressing is not done
• The case that CH53 appear at indoor unit also Auto Addressing is not done so indoor unit address may be duplicated
