Note: The Airbase BRP15B61 requires a Zone Controller (e.g., BRC24Z4/8) for zoning functionality, while Nav Ease and Zone Controllers are more suited for local control. The Airbase excels in remote access and app-based flexibility.
Compatibility
The BRP15B61 is compatible with a wide range of Daikin ducted and SkyAir models, including FDYQ(N)-D(L), FBA-B(A), FCA-C(A), FFA-A2, FHA-B(A), FXDQ-P(N)D, FXDYQ-MA, FXSQ-PA, and FXMQ-P. It integrates with wired wall controllers like BRC1E62, BRC1E63, and BRC24(230)Z4(8)A. Note that Daikin systems support only two controllers at a time, so if two controllers are already installed, one must be removed to accommodate the Airbase. For systems pre-2010, confirm compatibility with PenAir support using the external unit model number (e.g., RY200KUY1).
Installation and Configuration
Installing the BRP15B61 is straightforward for those with basic DIY skills. Here’s a brief overview:
-
Power Off: Switch off the air conditioner at the main isolator.
-
Connect Wires: Attach the BRP15B61 cables to the P1 and P2 terminals on the indoor unit’s fan coil.
