Troubleshooting
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
NOTE: Discharge body's static electricity before touching
unit. Electrostatics can adversely affect electrical compo-
nents.
Use the following precautions during indoor unit installation
and servicing to protect the integrated control module from
damage. By putting the indoor unit, the control, and the per-
son at the same electrostatic potential, these steps will help
avoid exposing the integrated control module to electrostat-
ic discharge. This procedure is applicable to both installed
and uninstalled (ungrounded) indoor units.
1. Disconnect all power to the indoor unit. Do not touch
the integrated control module or any wire connected
to the control prior to discharging your body’s
electrostatic charge to ground.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the
indoor unit blower near the control. Any tools held in
a person’s hand during grounding will be discharged.
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring
following the discharge process in step 2. Use caution
not to recharge your body with static electricity; (i.e., do
not move or shuffle your feet, do not touch ungrounded
objects, etc.). If you come in contact with an ungrounded
object, repeat step 2 before touching control or wires.
4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a
new control from its container. Follow steps 1 through
3 if installing the control on an indoor unit. Return any
old or new controls to their containers before touching
any ungrounded object.

 D-CHECKER ADDENDUM
▪ The Daikin D-Checker software is used for monitoring or recording operation data of
inverter using a connection cable exclusive to D-Checker. Please use correctly by carefully
reading the instruction manual.

▪ This software can monitor inverter sensor data (temperature, pressure) and actuator status
(compressor, solenoid, etc.). Data/status items that are supported by this software differ
from model to model.

▪ D-Checker gathers operating data from an inverter through a PCB connector on the
outdoor unit.

▪ Data monitoring/recording of multiple outdoor units is not supported.

▪ Note: The values shown in this addendum are intended for instruction purposes only.
Please refer to product specific literature (IO Manual) for appropriate operation ranges for
current unit.
