Quick Reference Guide
To assist service engineers working on Toshiba air conditioning equipment, there is a large quantity of
data available via the new “Lite Vision – plus” remote controller the RBC-AMS51E-ES, this data is NOT
available via an Infra-Red remote or the RBC-AS21E2 simplified remote controller.
Accessing the data is a simple process of entering into the on-board menu of the remote controller.
