2. Introduction
Before using an apportioned electricity billing function (AE-200 Apportion), initial settings and trial run must
be completed beforehand by authorized personnel on site. Please receive an explanation from your dealer or
contractor on how to use the function.
* For dealers and contractors
Install the software (tool), make initial settings, and perform trial runs according to the procedures in the order of sections
5, 6, and 7 in this manual. Provide sufficient explanation about an apportioned electricity billing function to the customer,
referring to section 2 (2-6).
2-1. About apportioned electricity billing function
If an outdoor unit is used by a single tenant, the amount of electric energy consumption for each tenant can be
ascertained by installing electricity meters on the indoor and outdoor units in each system. However, if the indoor
units in the same system are installed to multiple tenants, the electric energy consumption for each tenant cannot
be calculated with the electricity meter. Consequently, an apportioned electricity billing function is required.
The apportioned electricity billing function is our original electric energy apportionment system that apportions
electric energy using input from electricity meters with a pulse generator function. Rather than directly
measuring the electric energy used by each air conditioner, pulses are input based on the air conditioner usage
by determining the air conditioner operating status from the content of its communication with the indoor and
outdoor units.
(Example 1) A configuration where the apportioned electricity billing function is not required (where the outdoor
units are each used by just one tenant)

WT07442X02
(Example 2) A configuration where the apportioned electricity billing function is required (when the outdoor units
in the same system are installed to multiple tenants)
The electric energy used by an air conditioner consists of the electric energy that is consumed by the outdoor
unit and the electric energy that is consumed by the indoor unit. And the outdoor unit electric energy consumption
consists of the operating electric energy plus the standby electric energy. Similarly, the indoor unit electric energy
consumption consists of the operating electric energy plus the standby electric energy.
With the apportioned electricity billing function, the respective amounts of electric energy can be apportioned
based on the operating status and capacity of each tenant.
The example below describes a system where electric energy is metered (with-metering-device method).
(In systems where the electric energy is entered manually (no-metering-device method), standby electric energy
will not be apportioned.)
The apportioned electricity billing function can be implemented either by apportioning in the AE-200 units or
by using the TG-2000A integration software. This manual explains how to use the function by apportioning in
AE-200 units.
If you are using the TG-2000A integrated management software, refer to the TG-2000A Instruction Book.

2-2. System overview
The AE-200/AE-50/EW-50 units provide a comprehensive air conditioning management system that supports
web access.
Through the use of the apportioned electricity billing function, they also allow the electric energy used by each
operating air conditioner to be calculated.
Note
•The example below describes a system where electric energy is metered (with-metering-device method).
The figure below provides a schematic of the system configuration.
Apportioned electricity billing function requires the following tools:
•Charge Calculation Tool
This tool is required in order to use the AE-200 CSV data (apportioned results) to output the electricity
charges for each tenant, either as a CSV file or as hard-copy printout.
•Initial Setting Tool
This tool is required to make the settings for the apportioned electricity billing function.
Note
•Charge Calculation Tool can calculate the charges for up to 40 AE-50/EW-50 controllers collectively.
Although the connection destination of Charge Calculation Tool is AE-200, AE-200 units set as [AE-200
(Billing)] or [AE-200 (No M-NET)] on the Initial Setting Tool are not included in this 40 connections.
Refer to section 1-4 “PC requirements” for information on the PC system requirements.
Refer to section 5 “Preparation of the software (installation)” for how to install the software.
Refer to section 6-2-2 “AE-200 unit settings” for how to make AE-200 unit settings.

file or as hard-copy printout.
Electric energy data from an AE-200 can only be acquired via a LAN connection.
When outputting charge calculation results monthly, either the end of the month or any
date between the 1st and the 28th can be selected as the closing date.*6
When using closing date calculation, a PC with the Charge Calculation Tool installed must
be running at 5.00 AM on the day after the closing date for monthly calculation, or at 5.00
AM every day for daily calculation.
Standby electric energy
invoicing method *2
Either to invoice for standby electric energy (invoices to tenants) or to not invoice (left to the
building owner’s discretion) can be selected.
(Refer to section 6-7-1 “Billing function settings” for details.)

*1 The AE-200 apportioned electricity billing function does not support the PLC (electric energy counting software) system.
*2 In systems where electric energy is entered manually (no-metering-device method), only charge rates will be calculated. Electric energy
charges cannot be calculated.
The “AE-200ChargeCalc.xlsm” tool, which supports easy calculation of air conditioning charges based on the calculated charge ratio, is
installed together with the Charge Calculation Tool. To use this tool, refer to “Appendix 1. Using the AE-200 Charge Calculation Support
Tool”.
*3 Display and printing is possible for charge calculations up to 62 days previously.
*4 Charges for periods more than 62 days ago can be recalculated by periodically saving CSV files onto USB memory.
*5 Electricity meters are required for each AE-200 system (combination of AE-200 and AE-50/EW-50). (Electric energy will be apportioned
for each AE-200 system.)
*6 29th, 30th or 31st cannot be set as the closing date.
*7 The information displayed for printing and CSV output is different.
Refer to sections 3-5 “Printing the charge calculation results” and 3-6 “Examples of charge calculation results CSV output” for details.

2-5. System restrictions
•“Charge” license is required for each AE-200/AE-50/EW-50.
•Combinations of AE-200 and AE-50/EW-50 units are required.
•M-NET of AE-200 for billing function cannot be used.
•Built-in Pulse Input (PI) of AE-200 for billing function cannot be used.
•Electric energy measurement using a PI controller is recommended.
(If AE-50/EW-50 with built-in Pulse Input (PI) is used, pulse input will not be possible when the
AE-50/EW-50 is stopped, during power outages or during software updates. This could result in
discrepancies between the measurements and the actual electric energy used.)
•Ensure that the same software versions are used on AE-200/AE-50/EW-50 units.
•The apportioned electricity billing function (AE-200 Apportion) and apportioned electricity billing function
(TG-2000A Apportion) cannot be used together.
•When the apportioned electricity billing function (AE-200 Apportion) is being used and you intend to use
the TG-2000A integration software, check that the TG-2000A version is 6.60 or later.
•Electric energy pulse input is required for each AE-200 system. You cannot make settings (apportionment
settings) that span multiple AE-200 systems.
2-6. Notes on using the apportioned electricity billing function
•This function is our original electric energy apportionment system that apportions electric energy using
input from electricity meters with a pulse generator function. Rather than directly measuring the electric
energy used by each air conditioner, pulses are input based on the air conditioner usage by determining
the air conditioner operating status from the content of its communication with the indoor and outdoor
units.
To all users (user license agreement)
The information provided here constitutes an agreement between Mitsubishi Electric and the
customer.
If this “apportioned electricity billing function for the AE-200 air conditioning control system” is used,
this agreement assumes that the customer is using the aforementioned system having agreed to the
terms listed below.
•Mitsubishi Electric and its sales companies accept no liability whatsoever for any incidental,
consequential or special damages incurred by the customer, even where the sales company has
received notification of the potential for damages of that kind.
Nor is any liability accepted for any allegations regarding the rights of a third party.
Important
Any individual agreement between the building owner and a tenant regarding the use of this product
should incorporate the parties’ agreement to or accord with the fact that “charges for the use of air
conditioning will be collected in the form of apportioned totals based on the operating status of air
conditioners (including temporary measures to deal with faults)”.
•This is a system for estimating the operating electric energy used for air conditioning. As such it
cannot be used as a proof of transaction.
Also, amounts metered using electricity meters are also counted using pulse conversion and
cannot be used as a proof of transaction.
•This is not a system (or its equivalent) in which the operating electric energy used by each air conditioner
is directly measured at the location where the electricity is supplied.
•Because this is an apportionment method that uses the operating status of air conditioner indoor units,
even where the operating time for indoor units is the same, the amount of operating electric energy used
may differ depending on the model configuration and operating status of the outdoor units.
(The apportioned electric energy may be different when compared with a situation where an electricity
meter is assigned to each air conditioner.)
•Air conditioners still receive current even when stopped, and electric energy is apportioned to idle air
conditioners as standby electric energy.
•While the amounts of electric energy, water and gas used are obtained through pulse conversion,

15
WT07442X02
factors such as performance and accuracy are dependent on the metering devices and Mitsubishi
Electric is in no way responsible for such factors.
•If electric power to the AE-200/AE-50/EW-50 and PI controller is interrupted due to a power outage but the
air conditioner is still running, electric energy cannot be apportioned correctly.
•Because the unit price digits for each tenant (energy management block) are rounded off in the charge
calculation process, the figures may differ from the total electric energy charges.
•Because time discrepancies may result in variations in the apportionment processing results, the times
on the AE-200’s LCD should be periodically synchronized. (Even if times have been synchronized on the
AE-50/EW-50, they will be overwritten by the time on the AE-200.)
•Mitsubishi Electric accepts no liability for the incorrect apportionment of electric energy due to problems
such as power outages or equipment faults.

results) output from the AE-200.
For example, when the CSV data (apportioned results) acquired on the LCD runs from April 1, 2015 to
April 30, 2015, the Charge Calculation Tool cannot calculate charges for CSV data outside that range (e.g.
March 20, 2015 to April 19, 2015). Consequently, it is recommended that you specify the maximum date
range (the previous 62 days) for CSV data (apportioned results) output.
•Refer to section 4-2 “Calculating the charges for 2 months ago or earlier” to calculate charges for data
more than 62 days (2 months) previously.
