Thermostat Interface Installation

Introduction

This application note is to explain the wiring process between the Mitsubishi Thermostat Interface (PAC-US444CN-1) and a third-party zone control panel.
This is only a reference guide for wiring the thermostat interface. Duct sizing, bypass damper, static pressure settings, and local code requirements must be followed and developed per application.

Important Note:
Local codes take precedence over recommendations contained in this document.

Wiring Information

The Thermostat Interface takes the incoming signals from an open/close switch to the air conditioner and outputs the on/off signals from the air conditioner to the back-up heater. The wires are polarity sensitive so it is necessary to double check the orientation before powering on the unit. See Figure 1 for the wiring diagram.

Dip Switches
The dip switches must be changed in order to allow for advanced functionality to be supported. When received, the dip switches will be in the default off position.

Static Pressure

To change the static pressure of the system, dip switches SW2-1, SW2-2, and SW2-3 on the Thermostat Interface will need to be set. Please refer to the applicable Indoor Unit Service Manual for more information. This may change depending on duct size, building insulation quality, and other reasons.

Two-stage Operation

To set the two stage indoor unit operation, SW2-6 will need to be set to on.
When the third party thermostat calls for 1st stage of heat, the thermostat interface will change the indoor unit mode into heat and will optimize the variable capacity. When the 2nd stage of heat is requested, the thermostat interface will change the indoor unit mode into heat and ramp the indoor unit to full capacity.

SW2-6 Operation during stage 1
OFF (Single- stage) Full capacity
ON (Two-stage) The capacity is adjusted so that the room temperature is

adjusted (heated or cooled) at a fixed rate.

Time Delay for Fan OFF
It is REQUIRED that both SW1-1 and SW1-2 be changed to ON in order to have the time delay set to zero. If the time delay is set to a period of time other than zero, the unit will continue to blow air with the dampers closed. See Table 4 for the dip switch settings.

SW1-1 SW1-2 Result
OFF OFF 5 minutes (Default)
ON OFF 10 minutes
OFF ON 30 minutes
ON ON 0 minutes

Bypass Damper Information

Although many units supplied by Mitsubishi Electric do not require dampers, the air handlers (MVZ, PVA, and PEAD) can be combined with dampers in order to maintain the temperature in each zone. When wiring these products, please see the necessary wiring diagram in the bypass damper instruction manuals to verify installation with the Mitsubishi Electric system.
