I believe that different brands might have different comms.. At least on the older models.
On my Sanyo outdoor unit main board, there is a set of pins called 'T-Run'.
when I wanted run the outdoor unit without the indoor unit, I plugged
a switch across those two 'T-Run' pins..

When my 4-way valve default was in the wrong direction, I unplugged it's power and got the cooling out-put I wanted..

The main board got zapped last winter. If ever it's repaired, I may try
using the Outdoor unit as a hotwater heater.. I would use the T-Run pins..

Maybe you have some similar maintenance mode connection on your Gree.?.
