2 Product Description

MGW-BACCS Gateway (this Gateway) provides standard BACnet/IP services for VRF units.
It is suitable for all ECOFLEX series units, that is, ECOFLEX ODUs and ECOFLEX IDUs.
This Gateway supports 3 RS-485 buses and each bus is capable of connecting 8 ECOFLEX refrigerant systems (the maximum IDU quantity is 64).

*1: The X port of the Gateway is connected to the X port of the ODU, and the Y port of the Gateway is connected to the Y port of the ODU. When multiple refrigerant systems are connected, they need to use different addresses.

2.1 Debugging for Use
When a third party needs to integrate the monitoring of VRF units on the Gateway, the following configuration may be required based on the actual project.
The default IP address of the Gateway is 192.168.1.8. In the address bar of the Chrome browser (2), enter “https://Gateway IP address” to open the web page of the Gateway (3).
Username: admin
Default password: 123AB@ab
Note: The password is case-sensitive.

2: Other browsers may be incompatible, preventing the Web function from working properly.
3:
1. The PC and the Gateway need to be in the same network segment. For specific settings, consult relevant IT personnel.
2. The PC OS can be Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit) or later versions.
3. The resolution of the PC cannot be lower than 1600 x 900.
4. Chrome browser needs to be in 70.0 or any later version.

If the PC IP address is, for example, 192.168.1.100 and you enter “https://192.168.1.8” in the address bar of the Chrome browser, the following page will be displayed:

Note: The language selection uses your browser’s cache. When the browser is changed or the browser cache is cleared, the default language is restored.

2.1.1 Configure IP and BACnet related information of the Gateway on the System Configuration page.

2.1.1.1 Open the System Configuration page, and click “Edit” in the Ethernet pane, and edit relevant parameters in the opened dialog box.
The IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address need to be provided by the IT Administration of the network it is connecting too.

Note: After you change the IP address, this page will become unavailable, and you need to log in again by using the new IP address.
Ensure you change your PC IP Address to be the same as the new IP Address entered
Note: After changing the IP address, you are advised to restart the Gateway. Otherwise, some functions will be unavailable.

2.1.1.2 Open the System Configuration page, and click “Edit” in the Bacnet Configuration pane.

Bacnet Configuration: BACnet address (The default value is 19 and the value range is 2 to 400.)
BACNet Port: The default value is 47808 and the value range is 1 to 65534.
After the change, click “Submit” to save the configuration.
Debug Mode is enabled by default. When Debug Mode is enabled, you can check whether the
BACnet function of the Gateway is normal on the VRF Bacnet Console page.
After the internal verification, be sure to disable Debug Mode.

2.1.2 Check whether the BACnet function of the Gateway is normal on the VRF Bacnet Console page.

Port 0 is X0Y0E, Port 1 is X1Y1E, and Port 2 is X2Y2E.

As shown in the figure above, when you click an item in the left list, such as idu-19-2-0-0, the right pane will display the corresponding BACnet parameter values. If the values are displayed, the BACnet function is normal.

2.2 BACnet

2.2.1 Bacnet Point Description
2.2.1.1 Bacnet Device
The Gateway virtualizes VRF units as devices according to the specific type of the VRF units, and each device has different properties.
Currently, conventional VRF IDU and ODU are involved.
Each air conditioner connected to the Gateway has a unique BACnet device ID.
Format of a BACnet device ID of a VRF unit: ABCDEFG

Description: “05” indicates that the device is an IDU (in the range of 0 to 63), the refrigerant system number is 4, the port number is 2, and the BACnet configuration (BACnet address) on the Gateway is 19.

In other words, the device is connected to the Gateway through port 2, and the BACnet configuration (BACnet address) is 19, refrigerant system is 4, and IDU address is 05.

Note: Do not operate an air conditioner too frequently. Otherwise, the internal command queue may fill up, and commands may not be executed in time and become lost. The recommended interval of commands is greater than 500 ms.

2.2.1.2 BACnet Device of VRF IDUs

(1) Device Information Object
Notes:
① Object-identifier: BACnet device ID of a VRF IDU
② Object-name: Unchangeable IDU name in the format of IDU-port number-system
number-IDU address
(2) Object List

Note: Certain models do not support all the above parameters. In this case, corresponding parameters do not have a meaning. For example, if an IDU does not support left/right swing, the LR Swing parameter of the IDU is meaningless.

Note: Certain models do not support all the above parameter values. If unsupported values are set, the IDU status will be unpredictable. For example, if an IDU does not support Cool mode, and Mode Setting is set to Cool, the actual operating status of the IDU will be unpredictable. (Depending on the IDU type, the IDU may be off, functioning in cooling mode, or the current operating status may not be changed.)

If the ODU’s emergency stop is triggered by using this parameter, the status needs to be released by this parameter. Otherwise, the ODU remains in the emergency stop status.

2.2.1.4 COV Function Description

The Gateway provides COV services of Confirm and UnConfirm types.

If the BMS system of the upper computer subscribes to the COV service of the Confirm type of a variable, and the variable value changes, the Gateway sends a Notify packet to the upper computer, and the upper computer returns an ACK message to the Gateway.

If the BMS system of the upper computer subscribes to the COV service of the UnConfirm type of a variable, and the variable value changes, the Gateway sends a Notify packet to the upper computer, and the upper computer does not reply.

The COV service that the upper computer subscribes to has a lifetime, which is set on the upper computer.
