1-2 Preparation
Preparations for materials to be necessary for VRV operation data recording will be explained in this section.
Standard components which are required for VRV operation data recording are below.
5
AS0112-P-DENV
1) Required PC specification
•PC type
• Windows PC
• CPU 1GHz+, Memory 2GB+, HDD 20GB+
• Windows7 SP1 or later, Windows 8.0 /8.1 /10
• USB port
For control signal wiring, use vinyl cords or cables with two-core and sheathed as follow.
•Vinyl cabtyre cylindrical cord VCTF JISC3306
•Vinyl-insulated vinyl sheathed cable for control CVV JISC3401
•Vinyl-insulated vinyl sheathed, cylindrical cable for control CVS JISC3401
•Vinyl-insulated vinyl sheathed, cylindrical cable VVR JISC3342
•600V vinyl cabtyre cable VCT JISC3312
Cautions:
1. Do not use multiple-cored wires with 3 cores or more.
2. Use wires with a cross section of 0.75mm2 -1.25mm2.
3. Do not make wires bound in control- signal wiring. Do not make long-distance wiring by having signal wires
bound packed with tapes, tie-laps and the like.
4. Wire the signal wires away from power lines to prevent the effects of electric noise. Since Daikin’s air
conditioners and related products will generate much lower electric noises, it allows to have a distance of
minimum 50mm between the power lines and the control signal wires.

D3-NET connection wire
[Connection procedure]
(1) Connect with D3-NET connection wire prepared in 1-2 Preparation part in this manual.
Please connect wire to D3-NET terminal of checker first. (If connect to D3-NET terminal of VRV and F1-F2
will be short-circuited, unit could be damaged)
(2) Connect another end of D3-NET connection wire to communication terminal (F1-F2) of VRV unit.
[Warning]
Please connect to communication terminal of VRV (outdoor unit or indoor unit) or centralized
controller. If it would be connected to power terminal, there is a possibility of fatal accident by
electric shock or damage of the unit.
[Caution]
1. It’s not necessary to correspond F1-F2 of the transmission terminal of VRV to F1-F2 of the
checker like F1-F1 or F2-F2 respectively (no polarity).
2. Recommended connection point of VRV unit is F1-F2 terminal of OUT-OUT connection of outdoor
unit, but it can be connected to indoor unit or centralized controller.
3. In case of connecting to indoor unit, please connect to the last indoor unit of the line to avoid
sub-branching.
4. To extend wiring length (up to hundreds of meters), it could cause affection to the unit’s
operation. Please be aware of electric interference such as taking enough distance from power line.
15
AS0112-P-DENV
•When connecting to the VRV unit for the first time, the unit will change to stand-by mode for several minutes to
scan all the connected indoor and outdoor units. The system will automatically resume after finishing auto-
scanning (for 2nd time and onwards, system would not enter stand-by status by choosing saved network map).
•Data refresh interval depends on the refresh interval of connected VRV model (normally between 1 min to 5
min) regardless of data saving interval setting of checker software.
•In case of DTA109 adapter (D3-NET expander) is installed, Checker cannot collect operation data beyond the
point of DTA109 (for example, if you connect Checker in main bus, operation data of VRV systems in branch bus
cannot be monitored).
•If Wiring Adaptor for Electrical Appendices (1) or (2) (KRP2A or KRP4A) are installed to the same D3-NET line, an
error will be displayed to BMS or other centralized control system. To avoid this error, it is necessary to prohibit
centralized control function of checker software (see 7-3-2 Prohibit/permit centralized control).
[Procedure]

It is possible to stop sending centralized control command from checker by this setting.
Checker has a centralized operation function, it regularly transmits data as a centralized controller to the
connected D3-NET line.
To prohibit centralized control by this function, data transmission as centralized controller can be
stopped by checker.
1) It cannot be added any devices which might cause influences to D3-NET communication. In case of a lot of
units connected to the same D3-NET line and communication is very busy, but it is necessary to capture data
without affection to D3-NET.
2) Under circumstance of no centralized controller is allowed to connect, but it is necessary to capture data.
Or existing supervisor controller such as BMS controls VRV units by KRP2A or KRP4A. (see Q-101)
[Limitations]
If the centralized control function is prohibited, limitations listed below will apply.

[Q-101]
Error is generated if checker is connected to the system which Wiring Adaptor for Electrical Appendices (1) or (2)
(KRP2A or KRP4A) adapter is installed.
[Phenomenon]
The other supervising system (BMS) controls VRV via Wiring adapter for electrical appendices and checker is
connected to this system, supervising system causes air conditioner error.
[Cause]
Wiring Adaptor for Electrical Appendices (1) or (2) (KRP2A or KRP4A) cannot coexist with the other centralized
controllers because centralized controller’s operation command conflicts with the commands from the supervising
system. Checker has centralized controller function, adapter sends status of centralized controller conflicted
condition to BMS. This error itself is just a warning and does not affect operation of VRV system, but BMS system
recognizes error status and record it in its history. Besides VRV system will be in restart stand-by (thermostat-off)
due to connection of checker to the D3-NET line. As a result, it looks like VRV system stopped by error due to
connection of checker.
[Countermeasure]
By connecting checker, error will be submit to supervising system. But VRV system itself is not affected and can be
running without errors. After the removal of checker, alarm on supervising system will stop. In this case
countermeasures listed below are possible to take.
1. Asking customer to ignore alarms while checker is connected (in case of short term connection).
3. Cut J5 wire of KRP4A adapter PCB to kill alarm related to function for duplication of centralized controller.
*Please be aware if this wire is cut, duplication of centralized controller can no longer alerted.

[Q-301]
All parameters persist on same value (do not change at all)
[Cause]
Checker records operation data received from VRV units, but if no communication data comes, the last
parameters which was correctly received are recorded instead of blank, - - , or 00. Thus if there is no data is
available due to disconnected wiring or electric interference, same value (last correctly received data) is
recorded after this point.
[Countermeasure]
Check and correct D3-NET wiring.
[Q-302]
Even if an error code is indicated on the remote controller such as L5 (inverter overcurrent), checker does not
show the corresponding error code. There are no inverter retry (stand-by).
[Cause]
Normally L5 (inverter overcurrent) error immediately stops compressor, then the direct cause of L5 error
disappear and error status will be automatically reset. Like this kind of instantaneous state error codes,
remote controller retains the error code even the error status itself will be removed. But checker dose not
have such a function (retaining instantaneous error code until user reset operation), so these error codes
cannot be captured.
[Countermeasure]
It is not possible to make checker to do same behavior as remote controller does due to technical difficulties
(timing of cancellation of error status differs from model/series). Please check them by the other parameters
such as inverter current value or others.
[Q-402]
In map mode screen, outdoor unit icon is displayed but no operations data is shown. Besides outdoor unit
icon remains white and would not change to the other colors.
[Cause]
Operation data cannot be displayed because the software cannot recognize the outdoor unit. Outdoor unit
data format differs from model/series which requires update of checker software to collect operation data.
Therefore if connected outdoor unit is not supported yet, checker software can recognize it as an outdoor
unit but it cannot recognize model information and collect operation data.
[Countermeasure]
Software update to the version which supports connected model or later. Please refer to the supported
model list.
