The document discusses setting up communication between ClimateWorx air conditioning units and a building management system (BMS) via an interface gateway. It provides information needed for programming the gateway including unit addresses and monitoring points.

The purpose of the document is to provide information to ClimateWorx to properly program and configure the gateway interface between ClimateWorx M52 controllers and a BMS system. It lists the important information like unit addresses, their relationship in a Co-Work Network, and available monitoring points.

A Co-Work Network connects units of the same ClimateWorx series serving a common space to manage their operation. It allows units to share duty, provide backup, and prevent fighting. The network uses a separate I2C communication protocol from the RS485 BMS network.

Purpose

The purpose of the M52/BMS Interface Set-up document is to provide needed
information to ClimateWorx for the proper programming and configuration of the gateway
and to simplify the field execution of the communication between the ClimateWorx M52
and a BMS front end system.

The most important part of programming the gateway is:
1. Knowing the proper addresses of the ClimateWorx units
2. Their relationship to each other in a Co-Work Network and
3. The points that are required to be monitored.

The Set-up document provides a list of points offered by ClimateWorx which is included
with the gateway. If there are points that you need that are not on the list it is possible
that ClimateWorx can offer them but this requires a custom configuration file and will be
subject to additional charges.
Terms and Definitions:
Unit Designation: The unique tag given to a machine to
identify it in a building and to differentiate it
from other like units. ie. CRAC-1 or AC-2.1
Network Address: The RS485 address ClimateWorx will use
to identify a unique unit in a BMS network.
Must be 01 to 63.
Baud Rate: The communication speed used to transmit and receive data
between gateway and ClimateWorx unit. Factory set and must
match baud rate in configuration file.
CRAC 2
RS-485 Cable (By Others) Between Unit
M52 Controllers
(Max Distance 1,000 ft)
CRAC 2
CRAC 1
Co-Work Address: The address of each circuit board in a ClimateWorx unit that
identifies it in a local area network of units servicing the same
space. This is set using DIP switches on the ClimateWorx circuit
boards. See the M52 Users Guide for more information. Units
must be of the same Series.
Point Summary
The Summary of Points below describes the standard points available from ClimateWorx
with a gateway. Please note that single compressor ClimateWorx units point count is 39
and dual compressor ClimateWorx units point count is 45. Chilled Water units count is
39, the same as single compressor ClimateWorx units. You may monitor 500 points per
gateway. If you exceed the gateway point count you will need to purchase additional
gateways or purchase a custom configuration file with reduced point count in order not to
exceed 500.

Identification of units in a Co-Work Network
Units of the same ClimateWorx Series that are serving a common space may be
connected in a Co-Work Network to manage the operation of the units to share duty,
provide back-up and to prevent units from fighting each other. When units are
connected in a Co-Work network the configuration file for the BMS gateway must be
created in such a way as to identify units correctly. Therefore is it vital that the
following information be provided.
Please note:
1. The Co-Work Network is limited to eight compressor circuits
which means 8 Series 6, 6AU05 or 4 Series 9AU12.
2. The Co-Work Network is an I
2
C network and is a completely
separate network operating on a different protocol then the
RS485, BMS network. This means there will be two networks
between units. One is the RS485 and the other is the Co-Work.
3. Units alone in a room or not part of a Co-Work Network are
programmed as Co-Work address 1.
Sample Unit Identification Table:
The example below shows that there are six Series 9, 9AD30VEBHAX units in the
Main Data Center and two separate Co-Work Networks. CRAC-1, 2 and 3 form Co-
Work Network #1 and CRAC-4, 5 and 6 form a second Co-Work Network, #2. This
requires two Co-Work I
2
C networks of three units and one RS485 BMS network of six
units.
