Connection to the EIA-485 bus

Connect the EIA-485 bus wires to the plug-in terminal block of INMBSTOS001R000 and keep the polarity on this connection (A+ and B-). Make sure that the maximum distance to the bus is 1,200 meters (3,937 ft). Loop or star typologies are not allowed in the case of the EIA-485 bus. A terminator resistor of 120Ω must be present at each end of the bus to avoid signal reflections. The bus needs a fail-safe biasing mechanism (see section 4.7 for more details).

Quick Start Guide

  1. Disconnect the air conditioning from the Mains Power.
  2. Attach the interface next to the AC indoor unit (wall mounting) following the instructions of the diagram below or install it inside the AC indoor unit (respect the safety instructions given).
  3. Connect the AB bus between the interface and the AC indoor unit following the instructions of the diagram. Screw each bare cable end in the corresponding AB terminals of each device.
  4. Connect the EIA-485 bus to the connector EIA485 of the interface.
  5. Close the AC indoor unit. 6. Check the DIP-Switch configuration of the Intesis interface and make sure it matches the current installation’s parameters (see section 4.4).

By default, the interface is set to:

▪ Modbus Slave Address ➔ 1
▪ Modbus baud rate ➔ 9600 bps

These parameters can be modified from SW4 and SW3 DIP-Switches.
All other switch positions are set at a low level (Off position ) by default.
NOTE: All changes on the DIP-Switch configuration require a system power cycle to be applied.

7. Connect the AC system to Mains Power.
IMPORTANT: The Intesis interface requires to be connected to the AC unit (powered) to start communicating.

Modbus Interface Specification

Modbus physical layer

INMBSTOS001R000 implements a Modbus RTU (Slave) interface, to be connected to an EIA-485 line. It performs 8N2 communication (8 data bits, no parity, and 2 stop bit) with several available baud rates (2400 bps, 4800 bps, 9600 bps -default-, 19200 bps, 38400 bps, 57600 bps, 76800 bps, and 115200 bps). It also supports 8N1 communication (8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit).

4.2 Modbus Registers

All registers are type “16-bit unsigned Holding Register” and they use the Modbus big-endian notation.

This parameter indicates the cadence when reading priority signals. Priorities are defined as follows and can’t be modified:

0: Update on start-up

  1. High priority
  2. Low priority

The higher the value, the fastest the priority signals are going to update. The cadence is defined by:

  • One high priority signal and one low priority signal’s poll.
  • Two high-priority signals and one low-priority signal’s poll.
  • Three high-priority signals and one low-priority signal’s poll.
  • Four high-priority signals and one low-priority signal’s poll.

4.3.6 Considerations on Temperature Registers

  • AC unit temperature setpoint (R/W)
    (register 4 – in Protocol address / register 5 – in PLC address):
    This is the adjustable temperature setpoint value that must be required by the user.
    This register can be read (Modbus function 3 or 4) or written (Modbus functions 6 or 16). A remote controller connected to the Toshiba indoor unit will report the same temperature setpoint value as this register.

  • AC unit temperature reference (R)
    (register 5 – in Protocol address / register 6 – in PLC address):

  • This register reports the temperature that is currently used by the Toshiba indoor unit as the reference of its own control loop.
    If the value on the register 22 is valid (different from 0x8000), it will report the value from this register. If not, it will show the indoor unit reference temperature.
    It is a read-only register (Modbus functions 3 or 4).
    Depending on the mode selected, the register shows a different value:
    Heat Mode:
    Temperature reference = Ambient temperature +0.50C
    Dry Mode / Fan Mode / Cool mode:
    Temperature reference = Ambient temperature -0.50C
    When the mode changes from Heat to anyone else, or from anyone else to Heat, the register updates the value using the intervals +0.5°C/-0.5°C

  • AC unit external temperature reference (Modbus) (R/W)
    (register 22 – in Protocol address / register 23 – in PLC address):
    This register reports the temperature from an external sensor in the Modbus side. If valid value is received, the Modbus register will indicate a 0x8000 value.
    This register can be read (Modbus function 3 or 4) or written (Modbus functions 6 or 16).

  • AC Real temperature setpoint (R)
    (register 23 – In Protocol address / register 24 – in PLC address):
    This register will show the same value as in register 4 (protocol address). The reference temperature from the remote controller is sent directly to the AC unit to be applied in the control loop.
    It is a read-only register (Modbus functions 3 or 4).
    Moreover, notice that temperature’s values of all these four registers are expressed according to the temperature´s format configured through its onboard DIP-Switches (See “4.4 -DIP-switch Configuration Interface”). The following formats are possible:• Celsius value: Value in Modbus register is the temperature value in Celsius (i.e. a value “22” in the Modbus register must be interpreted as 22ºC)
    • Decicelsius value: Value in Modbus register is the temperature value in decicelsius (i.e. a value “220” in the Modbus register must be interpreted as 22.0ºC)
    • Fahrenheit value: Value in Modbus register is the temperature value in Fahrenheit (i.e. a value “72” in the Modbus register must be interpreted as 72ºF (~22ºC).

4.4 DIP-switch Configuration Interface

All the configuration values on INMBSTOS001R000 can be written and read from Modbus interface. Otherwise, some of them can also be setup from its on-board DIP-switch interface. The device has DIP-switches SW1, SW3 and SW4 on the following locations:

4.5 Implemented Functions

INMBSTOS001R000 implements the following standard Modbus functions:

▪ 3: Read Holding Registers
▪ 4: Read Input Registers
▪ 6: Write Single Register
▪ 16: Write Multiple Registers (Despite this function is allowed, the interface does not allow to write operations on more than 1 register with the same request, this means that the length field should always be 1 when this function is being used in case of writing)

4.7 EIA-485 bus. Termination resistors and Fail-Safe Biasing mechanism

EIA-485 bus requires a 120Ω terminator resistor at each end of the bus to avoid signal reflections.

In order to prevent fail status detected by the receivers, which are “listening” the bus, when all the transmitters’ outputs are in three-state (high impedance), it is also required a fail-safe biasing mechanism. This mechanism provides a safe status (a correct voltage level) in the bus when all the transmitters’ outputs are in three-state. This mechanism must be supplied by the Modbus Master.

The INMBSTOS001R000 device includes an onboard terminator resistor of 120Ω that can be connected to the EIA-485 bus by using DIP-switch SW4. Some Modbus RTU EIA-485 Master devices can provide also an internal 120Ω terminator resistor and/or fail-safe biasing mechanism (Check the technical documentation of the Master device connected to the EIA-485 network in each case).
