1.1.3 Operation control function by the indoor control
(Ⅰ) FDT, FDTC, FDU, FDUM, FDE series
(1) Auto operation
(a) If “Auto” mode is selected by the remote control, the heating and the cooling are automatically switched according to the
difference between outdoor air temperature and setting temperature and the difference between setting temperature and
return air temperature. (When the switching of cooling mode ↔heating mode takes place within 3 minutes, the compressor
does not operate for 3 minutes by the control of
3-minute timer.) This will facilitate the cooling/heating switching operation
in intermediate seasons and the adaptation to unmanned operation at stores, etc (ATM corner of bank).
Notes (1) Temperature range of switching cooling/heating mode can be changed by RC-EX3A from ±1.0 - ±4.0.
(2) Room temperature control during auto cooling/auto heating is performed
according to the room temperature setting temperature. (DIFF: ±1 deg)
(3) If the indoor heat exchanger temperature rises to 59°C or higher during
heating operation, it is switched automatically to cooling operation. In
addition, for 1 hour after this switching, the heating operation is not
performed, regardless of the temperature shown at right.

(iv)
Indoor ambient temperatures and humidity are controlled simultaneously with the relative humidity sensor (HS) and the
suction temperature sensor [Thi-A (or the remote control sensor when it is activated)], which are installed at the suction inlet.
When the operation has been started with cooling, if there is a difference of 2 °C or less between the suction and setting
temperatures, the tap of indoor fan is lowered by one tap. This tap is retained for 3 minutes after changing the tap.
After the above condition, when a difference between suction and setting temperature is lower than 3°C, and the
relative humidity is high, the tap of indoor unit fan is lowered by one tap.
When the difference between suction and setting temperature is larger than 3°C, the fan of indoor unit fan is raised by
one tap. This tap is retained for 3 minutes after changing the tap.
When relative humidity becomes lower, the indoor unit fan tap is retained.
In case of the thermostat OFF, the indoor unit fan tap at the thermostat ON is retained.
