BACnet protocol
RS-485 COMMUNICATIONS PORT
RS-485, or aso known as EIA-485, is a bus communications standard.
Integration bus
| Communications port speed | 300 to 115 200 bps |
|---|---|
| Communication | Half duplex |
| Frame length | 8 bits |
| Stop bit | 1 bit |
| Flow control | None |
| Parity | Par |
Connection
- For correct operation of Airzone systems, check that only the communication cables (green-blue) are connected to each terminal on the respective buses. Fix the cables following the color code.
PROTOCOL
Aidoo Pro allows a Building Management System (BMS) to control all variables of the Airzone systems. The device uses an open standard protocol based on ASHRAE 135, and is compatible with:
- BACnet (ANSI/ASHRAE-135)
- BACnet MS/TP
Aidoo Pro is a Plug&Play device for Airzone systems, and allows the following variables to be controlled and monitored:
- Switching on/off
- Room temperature
- Set-point temperature.
- Status of the operation mode.
- Fan status and speed.
Aidoo Pro Wi-Fi
Aidoo is a BACnet slave device; it is therefore necessary to indicate its
address. To do this, associate your Aidoo via the Airzone Cloud app (available
for iOS and Android) by following these steps:
-
From the main screen, access the menu and select Airtools.
-
Start advanced configuration via Bluetooth.
-
Select your Aidoo Pro from the list.
Note: If your unit is not listed, confirm that the Bluetooth function on your iOS or Android device is enabled and that Aidoo is turned on and working properly. -
Select “Integration”.
-
Configure the output as BACnet MS/TP and set the slave address.
- Download the Airzone Cloud app

List of objects
The complete list of objects available in Aidoo Pro is shown below. The
availability of the communication objects depends on the configuration of the
device and the type of installation. The availability of the Aidoo Pro
communication object is indicated in the “out of service” parameter of each
communication object whether it is available or unavailable within the system.
The communication object will only have “correct/valid” values when “out of
service” is FALSE.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF OBJECTS
Common to all objects
When the indoor unit is communicating normally, communication can be
established between the Aidoo Pro and the indoor unit. The BACnet Building
Management System (BMS) will have access to the Airzone AC unit objects. If
communication between Aidoo Pro and the system is not successful, or if the
request for information related to the communication object is not found
within the Airzone system, the object property “out of service” is activated.
Switching On/Off
Aidoo Pro will communicate the status of each specific zone. Through the
BACnet platform, any zone can be configured as on/off. These are read/write
objects.
IU communication
If the indoor unit loses communication, Aidoo Pro will communicate this to
BACnet. This object is read only.
IU errors
If the indoor unit generates an error, Aidoo Pro will communicate this to the
BACnet platform. This object is read only.
Digital input
Aidoo Pro will communicate the status of the digital input. This object is
read only.
Auxiliary heat
Aidoo Pro will communicate the status of Auxiliary heat. This object is read
only.
Set-point temperature
The indoor unit set point temperature and its value are communicated to the
BACnet system and can be modified by the BACnet system. This parameter is read
and write.
Room temperature (Localtemp)
The BACnet platform can obtain the room temperature of any zone. This object
is read only.
Operation mode
Aidoo Pro will communicate the operation mode of the system or of each zone
(depending on the connected system), represented by a number. These are
read/write objects. The modes are as follows:
- 0 → Stop
- 2 → Cooling
- 3 → Heating
- 4 → Dry
- 6 → Ventilation
Speed
This parameter refers to the AC unit’s fan speed. Aidoo Pro will communicate
the speed of the system or of each zone (depending on the connected system),
represented by a number. These are read/write objects.
Slats
Aidoo Pro will communicate the position of the slats represented by a number.
These are read/write objects. The position goes from 1 to 9; 10 is Swing mode.
Errors
If the indoor unit generates an error, Aidoo Pro will communicate this to the
BACnet platform. This object is read only.
