BUILDING AUTOMATION SYSTEM (BAS) CONNECTION
The PoolPak CPCS control system provides four optional Building Automation System (BAS) connection types:
LonWorks, ModBus, BACnet/IP, and BACnet MS/TP. These standard BAS connections are attached to the building
system at the T16 terminal block.
The BACnet/IP option includes the Remote Access Package feature. When the CPCS controller is equipped with the
BACnet/IP interface, RJ45 connection is made to the serial card port on control module CM1. The controller has a
second card port and can run a separate BAS in parallel with RAP.
See the respective BAS Installation & Operation Guide on the PoolPak website for more details, www.poolpak.com.
VIRTUAL-TECH

PLUS MPK
The PoolPak
MPK is remotely monitored and controlled by PoolPak factory service technicians with the
Virtual-Tech
®
Plus MPK remote access package (RAP). Remote monitoring is accomplished via an entirely factory
mounted and wired cellular web server located in the dehumidifier unit control panel.
In addition to the on-board data-logging of the CPCS controller, datalogging and trending is also available via the
remote server of the RAP. The RAP becomes active upon application of power at unit startup. The remote interface is
then viewable by PoolPak service technicians to quickly handle any alarm conditions or to remotely troubleshoot the
unit from the factory.

Upon startup, the screen shows the above indicating software version, date, and system warmup time remaining
