*1. When the overall pipe length between the BC controller and the farthest indoor unit exceeds 40m [131ft], observe the
restrictions in the figure titled "Restrictions on pipe length" below. (Except the P96 models)
*2. When the capacity of the connected indoor units is P72 or above, use the figures in the parentheses as a reference.
1) To connect the P72 through P96 models of indoor units, use an optional twinning pipe kit (Model: CMY-R160-J) and merge
the two ports before connecting them.
2) Do not connect the P72 or P96 models of indoor units and other models of indoor units at the same port.
3) Note the following when connecting multiple indoor units to a single port.
Those indoor units connected to the same port must be installed in the same room.
Set the indoor temperature via the connected remote controller, and when connecting multiple remote controllers, configure
these controllers as a group by making appropriate settings. These indoor units can only be operated in the same mode.
