About the Wi-Fi Adaptor
This Wi-Fi adaptor will communicate status information and control the connected air conditioner.
The Wi-Fi Access Point or Wireless Router must have a WPS function.
Warning
(Improper handling may have serious consequences, including serious injury or death.)
• Users should not install the adaptor on
their own.
• Improper installation may result in fire, electric

• If the unit is installed in a location that cannot
support its weight, the Wi-Fi adaptor could fall
and cause damage.
• Connect and fasten the electric wires securely
so external force on the wires will not apply on
the terminals.
• Improper connection and mounting may result in
breakdown, heat generation, smoke generation,
or fire.
• Mitsubishi Electric components or other designated
components must be used for installation.
• Improper component may result in fire, electric
shock, or damage/water leaks.

Caution
(Improper handling may have consequences, including injury or damage to house.)
• To prevent damage from static electricity, touch a
nearby metal body to discharge static electricity
from yourself before touching the Wi-Fi adaptor.
• Static electricity from the human body may
damage the Wi-Fi adaptor unit.
• Do not install the Wi-Fi adaptor in a place with
much steam, such as bathroom.
• Avoid places where water is splashed or where
condensation forms on walls. Installing in such
places can cause electric shock or breakdown.
• Do not install the Wi-Fi adaptor in places
with direct sunlight or where the ambient
temperature is 40ºC or more or is 0ºC or less.
Direct sunlight and high or low temperature
environments may cause the Wi-Fi adaptor to
deform or breakdown.
• Do not use in special environments.
• Do not use in places with much oil (including
machine oil), steam, or sulfuric gas - this may
lead to severe decrease in functionality and
damage to parts.
• Turn off power supply of connected equipment
when performing construction or wiring work.
• Failure to turn off the power supply to the
connected equipment may lead to malfunction
or breakdown of the Wi-Fi adaptor or connected
equipment.
• Dismantling the indoor unit
Please refer to the indoor units “service manual”
for detailed instructions for accessing the control
adaptor connector CN105 on the indoor unit
control PCB.
Note
• Please ensure that the access point supports
both WPS connection and the WPA2-AES
encryption setting before commencement of the
installation of the MAC-558IF-E.
• The end user should read and accept the
terms and conditions of the Wi-Fi service before
commencement of the installation of
MAC-558IF-E.
• To complete connection of the MAC-558IF-E to
the Wi-Fi service physical access to the access
point may be required.
• The MAC-558IF-E should not be installed
and connected to any Mitsubishi Electric
system which is to provide cooling or heating
to critical applications.
• Details of the air conditioner and MAC-558IF-E
can be recorded on page 2 ‘Setting Information’.

4. Connecting the Wi-Fi Adaptor
• Before dismantling the indoor unit turn off and verify the power has been disconnected to the complete
air-conditioning system.
• Dismantle the indoor unit in accordance with the service manual and locate CN105 on the Main control PCB.
• The connecting cable (5-core) connected to a room air conditioner (CN105) should be mounted at the
room air conditioner or its vicinity.
• Cable length outside air conditioner: less than 50cm.

Establishing Wi-Fi connection
After connecting the Wi-Fi adaptor to the air conditioner and reassembling the system, the Wi-Fi adaptor
must register with the access point or Wi-Fi router (to communicate with the server). For this Wi-Fi
adaptor, the use of WPS-Push is recommended. (Refer to 8.)
1) Hold down the WPS switch on the Wi-Fi adaptor for about 2 seconds to activate WPS-Push.
When WPS-Push on the Wi-Fi adaptor is ready to communicate with the access point, LED 1 flashes
at a 0.5-second interval.
2) Activate WPS-Push on the access point.
3) When WPS-Push is successfully enabled, LED 1 lights up for 5 seconds. If it failed, LED 2 lights up for
5 seconds, so try again from step 1.
Main causes that WPS failed are as follows:
Communication distance (from the Wi-Fi adaptor to access point), access point settings (encryption,
authentication, limit of connections, etc.) Refer to the instruction manual for more information.
Do not install the Wi-Fi adaptor
inside the indoor unit.

8. Switch Function
(1) WPS switch
The WPS switch is used for pairing the Wi-Fi adaptor with the access point. There are two types of WPS:
push button configuration (WPS-Push) and PIN code method (WPS-PIN).
• WPS-Push
Hold down the WPS switch for 2 seconds to start WPS-Push pairing.
When WPS-Push is enabled on the Wi-Fi adaptor, LED1 starts flashing green (0.5-sec interval) and the
pairing can be completed by enabling WPS-Push on the access point.
• WPS-PIN
Hold down the WPS switch for 15 seconds to starts WPS-PIN pairing. When WPS-PIN is enabled on
the Wi-Fi adaptor, LED1 starts flashing green (0.2-sec interval) and the pairing can be completed by
enabling WPS-PIN on the access point.
Before using WPS-PIN, the PIN code of the Wi-Fi adaptor needs to be set on the access point.

(2) RESET switch
• Hold down the RESET switch for 2 seconds to reboot the system.
• Hold down the RESET switch for 15 seconds to initialize the Wi-Fi adaptor to the factory default.
7. Troubleshooting
If at any stage you see the
orange LED 2 light up, this is an
indication that there is a problem
with the router communicating
with the adaptor.
If this occurs, you may need to check the following:
• WPS is working on your router
• Signal is reaching the adaptor
• DHCP addresses are available
• Your router is compatible with the adaptor - for a list of
compatible routers, see www.mitsubishi-electric.co.nz/wifi
If you are still experiencing issues connecting your router to the Wi-Fi adaptor then please contact our
helpline on 0800 639 434.
