CoolMasterNet can be used as a ModBus RTU slave device working in accordance with Modbus-IDA.ORG
"MODBUS over serial line specification and implementation guide". RS485 default frame format is (can be
changed with line baud command)
CoolGate 5 Indoors Address Map:
In order to simplify translation of the UID (like L1.100) into ModBus object address, CoolMasterNet uses VA,
associated with UID. Hex and Dec numbers printed after va command are Base Address used to access
ModBus objects related to UID-VA association. Base Address can be calculated as BaseAddress = VA*16 + 1.
For example Indoor Unit L1.100 has associated VA = 007, thus Base Address = 7*16+1 = 113 (0x71).
Once the Base Address is determined, access to the specific Indoor Unit parameter(s) is done via Modbus
objects listed below.
Failure Code String first
two characters
Failure Code String last

UID Encoding
Corresponds to Ln.XYY (like for example L1.100)
