	Ventilation + Air Clean. Combination of ventilation and air clean operation.
	Auto. In Auto mode, the indoor unit automatically switches between heating and cooling mode, as required by the setpoint.

INFORMATION

Depending on the indoor unit, more or less operation modes are available.

5.2.1 About the operation modes

INFORMATION

If the indoor unit is a cooling-only model, it can only be set to run in Cooling, Fan only, or Dry operation mode.

INFORMATION

When operation modes are not available in the operation mode menu, it is additionally possible that they are locked. The locking of operation modes occurs through the Madoka Assistant app. For more information, see the Madoka Assistant app and "Function lock" [▶ 113].

INFORMATION

If the operation mode changeover of an indoor unit is under centralised control ('changeover under centralised control' status icon blinking in the home screen), then it is NOT possible to change the operation mode of that indoor unit. For more information, see "Cooling/Heating masterhood" [▶ 86].

Cooling

If the outdoor air temperature is high, it can take some time until the indoor room temperature reaches the setpoint temperature.

When the indoor room temperature is low, and the indoor unit is set to run in Cooling operation mode, the indoor unit can enter Defrost operation mode first (i.e. Heating operation), this to prevent a decrease of the system's cooling capacity due to frost on the heat exchanger. For more information, see "Heating" [▶ 19].

The indoor unit can run in Cooling operation mode because it is operating under Setback conditions. For more information, see "Setback" [▶ 110].

Heating

When running in Heating operation mode, the system requires a longer time to reach the setpoint temperature than when running in Cooling operation mode. To make up for this, it is recommended to let the system start operation in advance by making use of the timer function.

The indoor unit can run in Heating operation mode because it is operating under Setback conditions. For more information, see "Setback" [▶ 110].

To prevent cold drafts and a reduction of the system's heating capacity, the system can run in the following special heating operation modes:

Operation Description
DefrostTo prevent the loss of heating capacitydue to frost accumulation in the outdoor unit, the system will automatically switch to defrost operation.During defrost operation, the indoor unit fan will stop operation, and the following icon will appear on the home screen:The system will resume normal operation after approximately 6 to 8 minutes.
Hot start (VRV only)During hot start, the indoor unit fan willstop operation, and the following icon will appear on the home screen:

INFORMATION

When the system is stopped while the indoor unit is running in Heating operation mode, the fan will continue to operate for approximately 1 minute, this to get out any heat remaining in the indoor unit.

INFORMATION

• The lower the outdoor air temperature, the lower the heating capacity. If the system's heating capacity is insufficient, it is recommended to include another heating appliance into the setup (if you use a combustion appliance, ventilate the room regularly. Also, do not use the heating appliance in places where it is exposed to the airflow of the indoor unit).
• The indoor unit is of the hot air circulation type. As a result, after operation start, it takes the indoor unit some time to warm up the room.
• The indoor unit fan will automatically operate until the indoor temperature of the system rises to a certain level.
• When hot air stays under the ceiling and your feet feel cold, it is recommended to include a circulator into the setup.

Dry

NOTICE

To prevent water leakage or system failure, do NOT turn off the system immediately after indoor unit operation. Before turning off the system, wait until the drain pump finishes discharging any water remaining in the indoor unit (approximately 1 minute).

INFORMATION

To ensure a smooth start, do not turn off the system while it is operating.

Auto

INFORMATION

In case of indoor unit setpoint logic, the system cannot run in Auto operation mode. Therefore, to allow for Auto operation mode, go for remote controller setpoint logic. For more information, see the Madoka Assistant app and "Setpoint logic" [▶ 108].

The Auto operation mode logic depends on the set setpoint logic (Madoka Assistant app setting).

Single setpoint Dual setpoint

Cooling setpoint Heating setpoint

DIFF Minimum setpoint differential between the Heating and the Cooling setpoint

C1+C1 Changeover setpoint (with guard timer)

C2 Forced changeover setpoint

0.5°C\~2°C Field settable temperature intervals between setpoints

INFORMATION

The default value of the settable temperature range (0.5°C\~2°C) is 0.5°C.

A changeover from the one operation mode to the other occurs in the following cases:

Case 1: primary changeover (C1)

A changeover occurs from the moment the room temperature rises above/drops below the Cooling/Heating changeover setpoint (C1), and the guard timer has run out.

Example:

Single setpoint Dual setpoint

The system is heating up the room. When after a while the room temperature rises above C1 (23°C), a changeover from Heating to Cooling occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again so as to allow for or prevent the next changeover.

The system is cooling down the room. When after a while the room temperature drops below C1 (21°C), a changeover from Cooling to Heating occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again, to allow for or prevent the next changeover.

C2 ———— 26°C + C1 ———— 25°C SP ———— 24°C SP ———— 22°C + C1 ———— 21°C C2 ———— 20°C +1°C +1°C DIFF: 2°C -1°C -1°C

The system is heating up the room. When after a while the room temperature rises above C1 (25°C), a changeover from Heating to Cooling occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again so as to allow for or prevent the next changeover.

The system is cooling down the room. When after a while the room temperature drops below C1 (21°C), a changeover from Cooling to Heating occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again, to allow for or prevent the next changeover.

Case 2: forced changeover (C2)

A changeover is forced from the moment the room temperature rises above/drops below the Cooling/Heating forced changeover setpoint (C2) while the guard timer is still running.

Example:

Single setpoint Dual setpoint

The system is heating up the room. When the room temperature rises above C2 (24°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Heating to Cooling.

The system is cooling down the room. When the room temperature drops below C2 (20°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Cooling to Heating.

The system is heating up the room. When the room temperature rises above C2 (26°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Heating to Cooling.

The system is cooling down the room. When the room temperature drops below C2 (20°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Cooling to Heating.

INFORMATION

To prevent operation mode changeovers from occurring too frequently, changeovers typically occur only after the guard timer has run out (i.e. Case 1). However, to prevent the room from getting too hot or too cold, a changeover is forced when the room temperature reaches C2 while the guard timer is still running (i.e. Case 2).

5.2.2 To set the operation mode

1 Navigate to the operation mode menu.

2 Use and to lect an operation mode.

3 Press to activate.

Result: The indoor unit changes its operation mode and the controller returns to the home screen.

5.3 Setpoint

The setpoint is the target temperature for the Cooling, Heating, and Auto operation modes.

INFORMATION

The lower setpoint limit of the Cooling operation mode is 20°C, as per UAE Federal regulation UAE.S 5010-5:2016 clause 6, and UAE.S 5010-1:2016 clause 10.

5.3.1 About the setpoint

Depending on configuration, the home screen displays the temperature setpoint either as a numerical value, or as a symbol.

INFORMATION

For how to set the home screen setpoint, see the Madoka Assistant app. Also see "Screen" [▶ 104].

Home screen setpoint: Numerical

In case the home screen displays the temperature setpoint as a numerical value, you control the room temperature by raising or lowering the setpoint by 1°C increments.

The default setpoint range is 16^ 32^ . If any limitations are set to this range with the setpoint range function (Madoka Assistant app function; see "Setpoint range" [▶ 111]), it is only possible to raise or lower the setpoint up/down to the set maximum/minimum setpoint range limits.

Home screen setpoint: Symbolic

In case the home screen displays the temperature setpoint as a symbol, you control the room temperature by raising or lowering the setpoint in relation to the "reference setpoint" (visually indicated by the marker in the middle of the thermometer).

It is possible to raise the setpoint up to three steps of 1^ C above and up to three steps of 1^ C below the reference setpoint.

Example: if the reference setpoint is 25^ C, it is possible to raise the setpoint to 28^ C and lower it to 22^ C.

INFORMATION

For how to set the reference setpoint, see the Madoka Assistant app. Also see "Screen" [▶ 104].

Exceptions to this logic are possible in case of:

• Setpoint range limitations
• Central control / control by a schedule

Setpoint range

If any limitations are set to the default setpoint range (16°C\~32°C) with the setpoint range function (Madoka Assistant app function; see "Setpoint range" [▶ 111]), it is only possible to raise or lower the setpoint up/down to the set upper/lower setpoint range limits.

Example: if the reference temperature is 25^ C, you can normally lower the setpoint three steps to 22^ C. However, if a setpoint range limit is set to 23^ C, you can only lower the setpoint to 23^ C.

Central control / Schedule

If the system is under the control of a centralised controller or a schedule, then the regular +3^/-3^ setpoint range limits can get overruled AND changed.

IF THEN
The centralised controller or schedule imposes a setpoint that is within the regular +3°C/-3°C setpoint range.	Nothing unusual happens and the system follows the regular setpoint and setpoint range logic.
The centralised controller or schedule imposes a setpoint that exceeds the regular +3°C/-3°C setpoint range.	The imposed setpoint becomes the new upper/lower limit of the +3°C/-3°C range, and the whole range shifts in relation to this new limit.Example: the reference setpoint is set to 25°C, yielding the following setpoint range:If the centralised controller or schedule changes the setpoint to 21°C, which is below the range, then "21°C" becomes the new lower limit, and the range shifts in relation to this new limit.

5.3.2 To set the setpoint

Prerequisite: The active operation mode is either 'Cooling', 'Heating', or 'Auto'.

1 In the home screen, use and to adjust the setpoint.

13.2.1 About the operation modes

INFORMATION

If the indoor unit is a cooling-only model, it can only be set to run in Cooling, Fan only, or Dry operation mode.

INFORMATION

When operation modes are not available in the operation mode menu, it is additionally possible that they are locked. The locking of operation modes occurs through the Madoka Assistant app. For more information, see the Madoka Assistant app and "Function lock" [▶ 113].

INFORMATION

If the operation mode changeover of an indoor unit is under centralised control ('changeover under centralised control' status icon blinking in the home screen), then it is NOT possible to change the operation mode of that indoor unit. For more information, see "Cooling/Heating masterhood" [▶ 86].

Cooling

If the outdoor air temperature is high, it can take some time until the indoor room temperature reaches the setpoint temperature.

When the indoor room temperature is low, and the indoor unit is set to run in Cooling operation mode, the indoor unit can enter Defrost operation mode first (i.e. Heating operation), this to prevent a decrease of the system's cooling capacity due to frost on the heat exchanger. For more information, see "Heating" [▶ 55].

The indoor unit can run in Cooling operation mode because it is operating under Setback conditions. For more information, see "Setback" [▶ 110].

Heating

When running in Heating operation mode, the system requires a longer time to reach the setpoint temperature than when running in Cooling operation mode. To make up for this, it is recommended to let the system start operation in advance by making use of the timer function.

The indoor unit can run in Heating operation mode because it is operating under Setback conditions. For more information, see "Setback" [▶ 110].

To prevent cold drafts and a reduction of the system's heating capacity, the system can run in the following special heating operation modes:

Operation Description
DefrostTo prevent the loss of heating capacitydue to frost accumulation in the outdoor unit, the system will automatically switch to defrost operation.During defrost operation, the indoor unit fan will stop operation, and the following icon will appear on the home screen:[IMAGE]The system will resume normal operation after approximately 6 to 8 minutes.
Hot start (VRV only)During hot start, the	indoor unit fan willstop operation, and the following icon will appear on the home screen:[IMAGE]

INFORMATION

When the system is stopped while the indoor unit is running in Heating operation mode, the fan will continue to operate for approximately 1 minute, this to get out any heat remaining in the indoor unit.

INFORMATION

• The lower the outdoor air temperature, the lower the heating capacity. If the system's heating capacity is insufficient, it is recommended to include another heating appliance into the setup (if you use a combustion appliance, ventilate the room regularly. Also, do not use the heating appliance in places where it is exposed to the airflow of the indoor unit).
  The indoor unit is of the hot air circulation type. As a result, after operation start, it takes the indoor unit some time to warm up the room.
• The indoor unit fan will automatically operate until the indoor temperature of the system rises to a certain level.
• When hot air stays under the ceiling and your feet feel cold, it is recommended to include a circulator into the setup.

Dry

NOTICE

To prevent water leakage or system failure, do NOT turn off the system immediately after indoor unit operation. Before turning off the system, wait until the drain pump finishes discharging any water remaining in the indoor unit (approximately 1 minute).

INFORMATION

To ensure a smooth start, do not turn off the system while it is operating.

Auto

INFORMATION

In case of indoor unit setpoint logic, the system cannot run in Auto operation mode. Therefore, to allow for Auto operation mode, go for remote controller setpoint logic. For more information, see the Madoka Assistant app and "Setpoint logic" [▶ 108].

The Auto operation mode logic depends on the set setpoint logic (Madoka Assistant app setting).

Cooling setpoint
Heating setpoint
DIFF Minimum setpoint differential between the Heating and the Cooling setpoint
C1 Changeover setpoint (with guard timer)

C2 Forced changeover setpoint

0.5°C\~2°C Field settable temperature intervals between setpoints

INFORMATION

The default value of the settable temperature range (0.5°C\~2°C) is 0.5°C.

A changeover from the one operation mode to the other occurs in the following cases:

Case 1: primary changeover (C1)

A changeover occurs from the moment the room temperature rises above/drops below the Cooling/Heating changeover setpoint (C1), and the guard timer has run out.

Example:

Single setpoint Dual setpoint
The system is heating up the room.When after a while the room temperature rises above C1 (23°C), a changeover from Heating to Cooling occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again so as to allow for or prevent the next changeover.The system is cooling down the room.When after a while the room temperature drops below C1 (21°C), a changeover from Cooling to Heating occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again, to allow for or prevent the next changeover.	The system is heating up the room.When after a while the room temperature rises above C1 (25°C), a changeover from Heating to Cooling occurs, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again so as to allow for or prevent the next changeover.The system is cooling down the room.When after a while the room temperature drops below C1 (21°C), a changeover from Cooling to Heating occurrences, provided that the guard timer has run out. If the guard timer has not run out, the changeover will only occur from the moment the timer does run out. As a result of the changeover, the guard timer starts running again, to allow for or prevent the next changeover.

Case 2: forced changeover (C2)

A changeover is forced from the moment the room temperature rises above/drops below the Cooling/Heating forced changeover setpoint (C2) while the guard timer is still running.

Example:

Single setpoint Dual setpoint

The system is heating up the room. When the room temperature rises above C2 (24°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Heating to Cooling.

The system is cooling down the room. When the room temperature drops below C2 (20°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Cooling to Heating.

C2 ———————— 26°C +1°C SP ———————— 24°C SP ———————— 22°C +1°C C2 ———————— 20°C DIFF: 2°C -1°C -1°C

The system is heating up the room. When the room temperature rises above C2 (26°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Heating to Cooling.

The system is cooling down the room. When the room temperature drops below C2 (20°C) while the guard timer is still running, a changeover is forced from Cooling to Heating.

INFORMATION

To prevent operation mode changeovers from occurring too frequently, changeovers typically occur only after the guard timer has run out (i.e. Case 1). However, to prevent the room from getting too hot or too cold, a changeover is forced when the room temperature reaches C2 while the guard timer is still running (i.e. Case 2).

13.2.2 To set the operation mode

1 Navigate to the operation mode menu.

2 Use and to lect an operation mode.

3 Press to activate.

Result: The indoor unit changes its operation mode and the controller returns to the home screen.

13.3 Setpoint

The setpoint is the target temperature for the Cooling, Heating, and Auto operation modes.

INFORMATION

The lower setpoint limit of the Cooling operation mode is 20^ C, as per UAE Federal regulation UAE.S 5010-5:2016 clause 6, and UAE.S 5010-1:2016 clause 10.

13.3.1 About the setpoint

Depending on configuration, the home screen displays the temperature setpoint either as a numerical value, or as a symbol.

INFORMATION

For how to set the home screen setpoint, see the Madoka Assistant app. Also see "Screen" [▶ 104].

Home screen setpoint: Numerical

In case the home screen displays the temperature setpoint as a numerical value, you control the room temperature by raising or lowering the setpoint by 1^ C increments.

The default setpoint range is 16^ 32^ . If any limitations are set to this range with the setpoint range function (Madoka Assistant app function; see "Setpoint range" [▶ 111]), it is only possible to raise or lower the setpoint up/down to the set maximum/minimum setpoint range limits.

Home screen setpoint: Symbolic

In case the home screen displays the temperature setpoint as a symbol, you control the room temperature by raising or lowering the setpoint in relation to the "reference setpoint" (visually indicated by the marker in the middle of the thermometer).

It is possible to raise the setpoint up to three steps of 1^ C above and up to three steps of 1^ C below the reference setpoint.

Example: if the reference setpoint is 25^ C, it is possible to raise the setpoint to 28^ C and lower it to 22^ C.

INFORMATION

For how to set the reference setpoint, see the Madoka Assistant app. Also see "Screen" [▶ 104].

Exceptions to this logic are possible in case of:

• Setpoint range limitations
• Central control / control by a schedule

Setpoint range

If any limitations are set to the default setpoint range (16°C\~32°C) with the setpoint range function (Madoka Assistant app function; see "Setpoint range" [▶ 111]), it is only possible to raise or lower the setpoint up/down to the set upper/lower setpoint range limits.

Example: if the reference temperature is 25^ C, you can normally lower the setpoint three steps to 22^ C. However, if a setpoint range limit is set to 23^ C, you can only lower the setpoint to 23^ C.

Central control / Schedule

If the system is under the control of a centralised controller or a schedule, then the regular +3^ / -3^ setpoint range limits can get overruled AND changed.

IF THEN
The centralised controller or schedule imposes a setpoint that is within the regular +3°C/–3°C setpoint range.	Nothing unusual happens and the system follows the regular setpoint and setpoint range logic.
The centralised controller or schedule imposes a setpoint that exceeds the regular +3°C/-3°C setpoint range.	The imposed setpoint becomes the new upper/lower limit of the +3°C/-3°C range, and the whole range shifts in relation to this new limit.Example: the reference setpoint is set to 25°C, yielding the following setpoint range:If the centralised controller or schedule changes the setpoint to 21°C, which is below the range, then "21°C" becomes the new lower limit, and the range shifts in relation to this new limit.

13.3.2 To set the setpoint

Prerequisite: The active operation mode is either 'Cooling', 'Heating', or 'Auto'.

1 In the home screen, use and to adjust the setpoint.

External input interlock

About external input interlock

External input interlock allows for the integration of external contacts in the system's control logic. By adding a key card contact and/or a window contact to the control setup, it is possible to have the system respond to the insertion/removal of a key card in/from a card reader, and/or the opening/closing of windows.

INFORMATION

To use this function, it is required that digital input adapter BRP7A5* is part of the system.

• Make sure that the digital input adapter and its optional contacts (window contact B1 and key card contact B2) are correctly installed. Confirm that the voltage free contact of the digital input adapter is in the correct position. For instructions on how to install the digital input adapter, see the installation manual of the digital input adapter.
• When the digital input adapter does not function properly, external input interlock is not available in the menu.
• When the digital input adapter is part of the system, the system does not allow for the connection of a slave controller.
• When the digital input adapter is part of the system, it is not possible to use the Schedule function.
• When the digital input adapter is part of the system, as well as a centralised controller, the external input interlock function is controlled by the centralised controller, and not by the adapter.

INFORMATION

• The "previous state" can be the on/off state, operation mode, cooling setpoint, and heating setpoint.
• When using the contacts, the fan speed as well as the Setback cooling and heating setpoints can be changed at any time, without losing changes.
• The fan speed is stored independently for the two main operation modes (Heating and Cooling). Separate fan speed settings are saved for Heating operation mode on the one hand, and Cooling, Dry and Fan only operation mode on the other hand.
• When closing the contact, changes made while the key card contact is open and the delay timer has not expired (normal operation) will not be saved.

Combination of window contact and key card contact logic

• The window contact has priority over the delay timer and the Setback functionality of the key card contact:
  When the window contact is opened while the key card contact is open, the delay timer will immediately expire if it is still running, and Setback will not work anymore. The reset timer will immediately start counting or will not reset when it was already running.
• The reset timer functionality of the key card contact has priority over the window contact when returning to the previous state:

When the key card contact is opened while the window contact is open, the delay timer will start running. When the delay timer expires the reset timer will start running. When the reset timer expires, the previous state is updated to the "Default Reset Setting" state.

Example 1

1 You remove the key card.
Result: The indoor unit continues operating normally until the delay timer expires.
2 You open the window before the delay timer expires.
Result: The indoor unit stops immediately. It is not possible to turn the unit on or off, the Setback functionality does not work, the delay timer stops counting, and the reset timer starts counting.

3 You insert the key card again.

Result: An update of the previous state occurs. The unit is forced off and the Setback functionality is still disabled (see "Window contact logic" [▶ 82]).

IF the reset timer HAS NOT expired before inserting the key card, the previous state is the same as the original state because there was only a change to the original state.

IF the reset timer HAS expired before inserting the key card, the previous state is the "Default Reset Setting" state.

4 You close the window.

Result: The unit reverts to the previous state. The previous state depends on the expiration of the reset timer.

Example 2

1 You open the window.

Result: The unit stops immediately. It is not possible to turn the unit on or off with the ON/OFF button, the Setback functionality does not work, and the delay timer does not start counting.

2 You remove the key card.

Result: The delay timer starts counting.

3 You close the window again.

Result: There is no change in state. It is as if you never opened the window (Setback will work if enabled).

IF the delay timer HAS expired before closing the window, the reset timer will have started counting. Closing the window has no influence on the reset timer.

IF the delay timer HAS NOT expired before closing the window, it will expire immediately and the reset timer will start counting. When the reset timer expires, the previous state is updated to the "Default Reset Setting" state.

4 You insert the key card again.

Result:

IF the reset timer HAS NOT expired before inserting the key card, the unit returns to the state before the window was opened (last "on" state);

IF the reset timer HAS expired before inserting the key card, the unit goes to the "Default Reset Setting" state.

When multiple indoor units are connected to an outdoor unit, one of these units (or a group of indoor units, in case of group control) needs to be set as Cooling/ Heating master. The other units/groups then become Cooling/Heating slaves, and are restricted in their operation by the master (e.g. one outdoor unit does not allow for one indoor unit to run in Cooling operation while another runs in Heating operation).

When an indoor unit or group of indoor units is set as Cooling/Heating master, the other indoor units automatically become its slaves. For instructions, see "To set Cooling/Heating masterhood" [▶ 87].

Status icon

Cooling/Heating masterhood corresponds to the following status icon:

The behaviour of this status icon is according to the following table:

If a controller displays ... Then ...
... NO status icon ... The indoor unit connected to that controller is Cooling/Heating master.
... a CONSTANT status icon ... The indoor unit connected to that controller is slave to a Cooling/Heating master.
... BLINKING status icon ... NO indoor unit is assigned as Cooling/ Heating master yet.

Operation mode

The operation mode behaviour of the indoor units is according to the following table:

If the master ... Then the slaves ...
... is set to "Heating", "Dry", or "Auto" operation mode	... start running in the same operation mode as the master. No other modes are then available for them.
... is set to "Cooling" operation mode ... then	en the slaves cannot run in "Heating" operation mode, but can still run in "Cooling", "Fan only" and "Dry" operation mode.
... is set to "Fan only" mode ... can ONLY run	in "Fan only" mode.

Once an indoor unit is set as master, it can be released from masterhood. For instructions, see "To release Cooling/Heating masterhood" [▶ 88]. To turn a slave unit/group into the master, first release the currently active master from its masterhood.

INFORMATION

Ventilation mode changes are possible regardless of Cooling/Heating masterhood.

To set Cooling/Heating masterhood

Prerequisite: No indoor unit is yet set as Cooling/Heating master ("changeover under centralised control" icon blinking on all controllers).

Prerequisite: You are operating the controller of the indoor unit that you want to set as Cooling/Heating master.

1 Navigate to the operation mode menu.

2 Set the operation mode to either Cooling or Heating.

Result: The indoor unit is now Cooling/Heating master ("changeover under centralised control" icon not on controller).

Result: All slave controllers display the "changeover under centralised control" icon.

To release Cooling/Heating masterhood

Prerequisite: You are in the installer menu.

Prerequisite: You are operating the controller of the indoor unit that you want to release from its masterhood.

14.2 Software update

14.2.1 About software updates

It is strongly recommended that the remote controller has the latest software version. There are two ways to perform a software update.

Software update Instructions
Madoka Assistant app "14.2.2 Software update with app" [▶ 90]
Updating tool "14.2.3 Software update with updating tool" [▶ 90]

INFORMATION

• When the software of a controller is out-of-date, the Madoka Assistant app will suggest a software update for that controller as soon as you try to connect it (the controller) to the app.
• Checking the current controller software version is possible from the information screen (see "13.1.3 Information screen" [▶ 52]) and/or from the information menu ("About the information menu" [▶ 88]).

14.2.2 Software update with app

To update the software with the app:

1 Make sure that Bluetooth is activated on the remote controller ( displayed on the home screen). If not, activate Bluetooth according to the instructions set out in "15.2.3 To make a Bluetooth connection" [▶ 93].
2 In the home screen of the app, tap the tile of the remote controller of which you want to update the software, and follow the instruction from there.

INFORMATION

The Madoka Assistant app is available from Google Play and the App Store.

INFORMATION

When it is the first time you connect a remote controller to your device, app and user interface initiate a numeric comparison procedure. To successfully connect the controller to the app, follow the procedure.

After each successful connection to a mobile device, the controller automatically stores information about that mobile device, this to facilitate future reconnection. This information is called "bonding information".

When no bonding information is stored, (i.e. at first connection, or after it got manually removed), you will have to go through the numeric comparison procedure.

When bonding information is stored, you can connect the controller to the mobile device just by making the controller send out a Bluetooth signal and tapping the tile of the controller in the app. The controller will then connect to the mobile device automatically.

Bonding information gets stored automatically, and can be removed manually. Remove the bonding information from the controller when you want to update the software from another mobile device than the one the controller contains information about.

INFORMATION

To connect the remote controller to the mobile device with Bluetooth, and to perform a software update, it is required that you stay close to the remote controller (i.e. within Bluetooth range).

14.2.3 Software update with updating tool

Action Description
Auto OFF Set an OFF timer that starts running	as soon as the motion sensor detects the room is unoccupied.
Setpoint adjustment Set setpoint adjustment	increments and intervals for both heating and cooling operation. When the motion sensor detects the room is unoccupied, the system will raise (cooling operation) or lower (heating operation) the setpoint, until the set limit is reached.

INFORMATION

To use this function, it is required that the indoor units are equipped with a motion sensor (optional accessory).

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when the indoor units are controlled by a centralised controller.

INFORMATION

This function is not supported when the system contains Sky Air RR or RQ outdoor units.

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when the indoor units are in group control.

INFORMATION

For systems in which the indoor units run in simultaneous operation, this function is controlled by the motion sensor mounted in the master indoor unit.

OFF timer

Set a timer for the system to turn OFF automatically. The timer can be enabled or disabled. When the timer is enabled, it starts running each time the system gets turned ON.

The timer has a range of 30\~180 minutes, and can be set in increments of 30 minutes.

Energy consumption

See and compare energy consumption data.

INFORMATION

The availability of this function depends on the type of indoor unit.

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when the indoor units are in group control.

INFORMATION

This function is not supported when the system contains Sky Air RR or RQ outdoor units.

INFORMATION

The displayed energy consumption can be different from the actual energy consumption. The displayed data is not the result of a kWh measurement, but the result of a calculation based on measured operation data. Some of that operation data are absolute values, but some are interpolations, including room for interpolation tolerance.

Power consumption limit

Set a timespan in which the system limits its peak power consumption. When enabled, this function makes the outdoor unit operate with limited energy consumption (70% or 40% of usual consumption) in the set timespan.

INFORMATION

The availability of this function depends on the type of outdoor unit.

Setpoint auto reset

Set a timer for the system to automatically adjust the temperature to a set temperature value. The timer can be enabled or disabled for Heating and Cooling operation separately. When a timer is enabled, it starts running each time the system gets turned ON. When the timer runs out, the temperature setpoint will always change to the set value, also if the temperature setpoint has been changed in the meanwhile.

The timer has a range of 30\~120 minutes, and can be set in increments of 30 minutes.

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when the indoor units are controlled by a centralised controller.

15.5.6 Scheduling

Schedule

Organise system actions into schedules. The schedule function allows you to set up to 5 timed actions for each day of the week. It is possible to create up to 3 different schedules, though only 1 schedule can be active at the same time.

The action logic is as follows:

1 Set a timespan for the action.
2 Choose to turn system operation ON or OFF, and set the conditions.

IF "Operation" THEN
ON Set action-specific temperature	setpoints for Cooling and/or Heating operation, or choose to maintain the current setpoints.
OFF Choose to enable or disable Setback	operation for Cooling and/or Heating operation.If enabled, set action-specific Setback setpoints, or choose to maintain the current setpoints.For more information, see "Setback" [ ▶ 110].

INFORMATION

If the "Home screen setpoint" setting is set to "Symbolic", there is only a limited range of possible temperature setpoints. However, if "Home screen setpoint" is set to "Symbolic", and there is a setpoint change coming from a schedule, then the system will disregard the regular setpoint limitations and allow the schedule to exceed the limited setpoint range. For more information, see "Home screen setpoint: Symbolic" [▶ 59].

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when the indoor units are controlled by a centralised controller.

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when digital input adapter BRP7A5* is part of the system.

Holiday

Select days of the week for which the schedule does not apply. On the selected days, any actions set with the schedule function do not get executed. The holiday function can be enabled or disabled. When enabled, it applies to any schedule that is set to be active.

INFORMATION

For more information, see "Schedule" [▶ 107].

15.5.7 Configuration and operation

Setpoint logic

Set up the setpoint logic. Choose whether the setpoint logic is executed by the indoor unit, or by the remote controller.

Setpoint logic Description
Indoor unit The setpoint logic is executed	by the indoor unit.
Remote controller The setpoint logic is executed by the remote controller.

In case of remote controller setpoint logic, choose whether to have single setpoint logic, or dual setpoint logic.

Remote controller setpoint logic Description
Single setpoint There is only one temperature	ture setpoint, independent of the operation mode. If this is the case, changing the operation mode does NOT change the setpoint. Or the other way around, if you change the setpoint, you do so for both Cooling and Heating operation.
Dual setpoint There are two temperature	setpoints: one specifically for Cooling operation, and one specifically for Heating operation. If this is the case, changing the operation mode DOES change the setpoint (i.e. to the setpoint of the other operation mode). Or the other way around, if you change the Cooling setpoint, you do NOT change the Heating setpoint.

In case of dual setpoint logic, set the Minimum setpoint differential. This is the minimum difference between the possible setpoints for Cooling and Heating operation:

• Cooling setpoint ≥ (Heating setpoint + Minimum setpoint differential)
• Heating setpoint ≤ (Cooling setpoint – Minimum setpoint differential)

This means that:

• If you lower the Cooling setpoint < (Heating setpoint + Minimum setpoint differential), then the controller will automatically lower the Heating setpoint.
• If you raise the Heating setpoint > (Cooling setpoint - Minimum setpoint differential), then the controller will automatically raise the Cooling setpoint.

DIFF Minimum setpoint differential

INFORMATION

When the system is controlled by central control equipment, control of the system by the controller is limited. When this is the case, it is not possible to set dual setpoint logic in the Madoka Assistant app.

INFORMATION

When the indoor units are under control of a centralised controller, only indoor unit setpoint logic is possible.

INFORMATION

In case of indoor unit setpoint logic, the system cannot run in Auto operation mode. To enable Auto operation mode for VRV heat pump systems, go for remote controller setpoint logic.

Setback

Enable Setback temperature control. Setback is a function that keeps the room temperature in a specific range when the system is turned off (by the user, the schedule function, or the OFF timer). To achieve this, the system temporarily runs in Heating or Cooling operation mode, according to the setback setpoint and recovery differential.

Example:

graph TD
    A["Sun icon"] --> B["10°C"]
    B --> C["12°C"]
    C --> D["OFF"]
    D --> E["33°C"]
    E --> F["35°C"]

Settings Result
Heating operation	Heating setback setpoint	10°C If the room temperature drops below 10°C, the system automatically starts heating operation. If after 30 minutes the temperature rises above 12°C, the system stops heating operation, and turns off again. When the room temperature drops below 10°C again, the process gets repeated.
	Heating recovery differential	+2°
Cooling operation	Cooling setback setpoint	35°C If the room temperature rises above 35°C, the system automatically starts cooling operation. If after 30 minutes the temperature drops below 33°C, the system stops cooling operation, and turns off again. When the room temperature rises above 35°C again, the process gets repeated.
	Cooling recovery differential	-2°C

INFORMATION

• Setback is by default enabled.
• Setback turns on the system for at least 30 minutes, unless the setback setpoint is changed, or the system is turned on with the ON/OFF button.
• When Setback is active, you cannot make changes to fan speed settings.
• When Setback activates while the system is set to Auto operation mode, the system will switch to Cooling or Heating operation mode, depending on which is required. The Setback setpoint displayed on the operation screen is then according to the operation mode.
• When Setback is active and the "Home screen setpoint" setting is set to "Symbolic", then there is no indication of Setback operation on the remote controller home screen.

INFORMATION

This function cannot be used when the indoor units are controlled by a centralised controller.

INFORMATION

The default setpoint range limits for Setback operation are [33^ - 37^] for Cooling operation, and [10^ - 15^] for Heating operation. It is not possible to change these limits.

Individual airflow direction

Set the airflow direction of each individual indoor unit air outlet. The maximum number of indoor units for which you can make these settings depends on the type of system:

System Maximum number of indoor units

The lower setpoint limit of the Cooling operation mode is 20^ C, as per UAE Federal regulation UAE.S 5010-5:2016 clause 6, and UAE.S 5010-1:2016 clause 10.

INFORMATION

The upper setpoint limit of the Heating operation mode is 28^ C, as per Egypt regulation.

Active airflow circulation

Enable Active airflow circulation to have a more even temperature distribution in the room.

When Active airflow circulation is enabled, indoor unit fan speed and airflow direction get controlled automatically, making manual fan speed and airflow direction changes impossible.

Cooling/Heating masterhood

Set an indoor unit (or group of indoor units) as Cooling/Heating master. When multiple indoor units are connected to an outdoor unit, one of these units (or a group of indoor units, in case of group control) needs to be set as Cooling/Heating master. The other units/groups then become Cooling/Heating slaves, and are restricted in their operation by the master (e.g. one outdoor unit does not allow for one indoor unit to run in Cooling operation while another runs in Heating operation).

When an indoor unit or group of indoor units is set as Cooling/Heating master, the other units/groups automatically become its slaves. To turn a slave unit into the master, first connect the app to the controller controlling the currently active master and release it from its masterhood, then set the (slave) unit as master.

Airflow direction range

Set the indoor unit airflow direction range according to the installation location. This function is available for floorstanding indoor units only. The maximum number of indoor units for which you can make these settings is 16.

Left Centre Right

The ranges correspond with the following airflow swing patterns:

Left Centre Right

Field settings are composed of the following components:

Modes
Units
Settings
Values

The field settings procedure differs depending on whether you are making settings for individual indoor units or for groups of indoor units, or for the remote controller.

Field settings type Procedure
Individual indoor units	Set the field setting type to "Indoor unit".Define a mode. In the field settings table, find this number between brackets in the Mode column.Define the unit to which the setting will apply by setting a unit number.Define the setting by tapping the right tile in the app. In the field settings table, find settings in the SW column.Define a value for that setting.
Groups of indoor units	Set the field setting type to "Indoor unit".Define a mode. In the field settings table, find this number NOT between brackets in the Mode column.Do NOT set a unit number (the settings will apply to all units in the group).Define the setting by tapping the right tile in the app. In the field settings table, find settings in the SW column.Define a value for that setting.
Remote controller • Set the field setting	type to "Remote controller".• Define a mode.• Define the setting by tapping the right tile in the app. In the field settings table, find settings in the SW column.• Define a value for that setting.

Default values

Field setting default values are different depending on the indoor unit model. For more information, see the service manual of the indoor units. For the following field settings, the default values are the same for all indoor unit models:

Field setting Default value
Thermostat sensor 02
Setback 04
Window contact B1 02
Key card contact B2 02
Airflow direction range 02
Remote controller thermostat sensor 02
Rotation overlap time 03

INFORMATION

• The connection of optional accessories to the indoor unit might cause changes to some field settings. For more information, see the installation manual of the optional accessory.
• For details about the specific field settings of each type of indoor unit, see the installation manual of the indoor units.
• Outdoor unit field settings can only be configured via the outdoor unit PCB. For more information, see the installation manual of the outdoor unit.
• Field settings that are not available for a connected indoor unit are not displayed.

Duty rotation

Activate Duty rotation to let the indoor units operate alternately (one indoor unit alternately inactive), this to increase system lifespan and reliability.

Duty rotation is designed for units operating in critical applications (e.g. in server rooms that require lots of cooling). In these cases, the system is equipped with an extra backup unit. Activating Duty rotation then allows for:

• Rotation: because the system is equipped with more units than are required to provide the heating/cooling load, one of the units can remain inactive during normal operation. After a set time (i.e. "Rotation cycle time"), the inactive unit will start operation, and a previously active unit will become inactive (i.e. duty rotation). Because the units only operate alternately, the lifespan of the system increases.
• Backup: having a backup unit allows for system redundancy. If an active unit goes into error, Duty rotation makes sure an inactive one takes over.

In "Supervisor" mode, it is mandatory to set a unique "supervised room address" for every indoor unit. The "supervised room address" can be set in the Madoka Assistant app. Note that in case of multiple leakages, only the address of the first faulty unit rising the error is displayed.

For more information about the modes the controller can be set to be operable in, see "12.1 About the controller" [▶ 45].

17.2 Refrigerant leak detection

When the system detects a refrigerant leak, an alarm goes off on the controller, and the Madoka Assistant app sends out a notification. Stop the alarm and dismiss the notification.

17.2.1 About refrigerant leak detection
