User Notice

• Never install the wired remote controller in the moist circumstance or expose it directly under the sunlight.
• Never beat, throw, and frequently disassemble the wired remote controller and the wireless remote controller.
• Never operate the wired remote controller and the wireless remote controller with wet hands.
• Do not remove or install the wired controller by yourself. If there is any question, please contact our after-sales service center.
• The wired controller is a general model, applicable for several kinds of units. Some functions of the wired controller are not available for certain kinds of units, more details please refer to the owner’s manual of unit. The setting of such unavailable function will not affect unit’s operation.
• The wired controller is universal. The remote receiver is either in the indoor unit or in the wired controller. Please refer to the specific models.
• As for some indoor units connected with the wired controller, if use the remote controller whose set temperature is adjustable under auto mode, the wired controller will receive the mode signal of remote controller, rather than its set temperature under the auto mode.
• The wired controller is the universal component. When indoor unit has connected with the wired controller, display status of indoor unit is decided by the indoor unit. Valid status and invalid status are all belong to normal status.

Please read the manual carefully before using and installing this product.

4 Installation and Dismantlement

4.1 Connection of the Signal Line of the Wired Remote Controller

• Open the cover of the electric control box of the indoor unit.
• Let the single line of the wired remote controller through the rubber ring.
• Connect the signal line of the wired remote controller to the 4-pin socket of the indoor unit PCB.
• Tighten the signal wire with ties.
• The communication distance between the main board and the wired remote controller can be up to 65.6 feet ( the standard distance is 26.2 feet)

4.2 Installation of the Wired Remote Controller

Fig.17 Accessories for the Installation of the Wired Remote Controller

Table 3

Fig.18
Fig.18 shows the installation steps of the wired remote controller, but there are some issues that need your attention.

A
Note: CN1 is 485 communication interface and it used for connecting the 4-core communication wire. These two needle stands(CN2aCN3) are used for connecting the smart zone controller. There is no sequence for these two needle stands. You can connect one or two needle stand(s) basing on the requirement.

(1). Prior to the installation, please firstly cut off the power supply of the wire buried in the installation hole, that is, no operation is allowed with electricity during the whole installation.
(2). Pull out the four-core twisted pair line from the installation holes and then let it go through the rectangular hole behind the soleplate of the wired remote controller.
(3). Stick the soleplate of wired controller on the wall and then use screw M4×25 to fix soleplate and installation hole on wall together, attach the sponge 20×20×2 at the screw hole and then press it with fingers to make sure it’s attached firmly.
(4). Insert the four-core twisted pair line into the slot of the wired remote controller and then buckle the front panel and the soleplate of the wired remote controller together.
(5). Finally, fix the front panel and the soleplate of the wired remote controller tightly by screws ST2.9X6.

Fig.19

Fig.19 shows the schematic diagram of control system connection. XK19 can connect the smart zone controller (integrated control system). “n” indicates the number of communication node address (programmable wired controller XK19). The complete system is composed of the smart zone controller, wired controller XK19 and communication cable. The wired controller XK19 can support 16 communication node addresses at the most (n≤16).
Terminal A and terminal B of the smart zone controller are respectively connected to the corresponding communication needle stand terminal of the

1wired controller by the communication cable; the other needle stand of #1

wired controller is connected to the #2 wired controller through the telecommunication cable and so forth until connect to the #n wired controller. Except the last wired controller in the control system (only use CN2 or CN3, and the other one will not be connected), there’s no the sequence and the importance for the wired controller. The series number in the figure is only for the sake of clarity.

Fig.20

Fig.20 shows schematic diagram of DIP switch. There is a 2-bit DIP switch on the main board of wired controller XK19. As for the last #n wired controller in the control system, the 1-bit and the 2-bit of the DIP switch should be manually pulled to position “on” and position “off” respectively. The DIP switches of other wired controllers should be kept at the initial ex-factory status (1-bit and 2-bit are set at position “off”).

CAUTION!
Please pay special attention to the followings during the connection to avoid the malfunction of the air conditioning unit due to electromagnetic interference.
1 Separate the signal and communication lines of the wired remote controller from the power cord and connection lines between the indoor and outdoor unit, with a minimum interval of 20cm, otherwise the communication of the unit will probably work abnormally.
2 If the air conditioning unit is installed where is vulnerable to electromagnetic interference, then the signal and communication lines of the wired remote controller must be the shielding twisted pair lines.

4.3 Dismantlement of the Wired Remote Controller

5 Errors Display

If there is an error occurring during the operation of the system, the error code will be displayed on the LCD, as show in Fig.21. If multi errors occur at the same time, their codes will be displayed circularly.

Note: In event of any error, please turn off the unit and contact the professionally skilled personnel.
