BUSING-CRAC-I V1.2
1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The BUSing-CRAC-I gateway allows direct communication from a BUSing® protocol installation
with compatible Carrier® climate units through TCB-IFMB641TLE interface, which is connected
to the outdoor units. This makes it easy to control the machine from BUSing screens, web servers
or the Ingenium app available for mobile devices (iOS and Android) with a fully graphical and
visual interface.
Apart from reading ambient temperature, set point temperature may be consulted and
modified, as well as indicating to the machine its mode of operation and fan speed.
Each gateway is connected to TCB-IFMB641TLE interface from outdoor unit through 3 wires with
polarity (A, B and ref), being optional reference connection. Besides, each outdoor unit can
control up to 32 indoor units. The initial configuration that the interface must have for a correct
working is 9600 bps speed, and be addressed on address 1.

2 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
• Gateway for integration of Carrier air conditioning system and BUSing® protocol.
• Allows control of up to 32 indoor Carrier units.
• Direct communication through 3 wires with polarity, to A, B and ref terminals to TCB-
IFMB641TLE interface from outdoor unit.
• Control and monitoring of the status and operating modes of the Carrier climate
machine.
o On/Off machine
o Ambient temperature
o Consignment temperature
o Modes of operation
o Machine speed
• Mounting next to the climate unit or integrated into the ceiling.
• It allows control from BUSing® screens, web servers or the free Ingenium App.

3 PROGRAMMING OF THE DEVICE
From the Development System (SIDE) BUSing-AC node must be inserted in the integrations tab,
in the address wanted the gateway to have.
By double-clicking or right-clicking on the icon, and accessing its properties, a window will open
like the following:
The only thing that needs to be programmed in this part, is to name the machines in use (up to
32), which will be the ones appearing, when linking it, on the graphical interfaces. The rest of
the machines will not be used, as this gateway can only control one climate unit.
Once entered in the BUSing project and having only connected to the BUS this computer, the
device should be addressed, right click on it and select Program this node by appearing the
property screen on which you must click on programming. You can also right-click: Direct and
program node.

3.1 POINT TO POINT CONTROL IN PPL
To be able to control the machine it will be necessary to include a thermostat icon on one of the
graphical interfaces or web server of BUSing®, and make a point-to-point link. The following
example is about Ethbus3 or PPL.
In the Web Server Planes tab, with a previously added plane, through the red icon, located on
the right side:
Click on a thermometer icon, available in the icon battery on the right. Next, with the mouse you
click on the part of the plane you want to incorporate this icon:
And the map would look like:

The next step will be to make a point-to-point link of the thermostat icon with the AC gateway.
To do this, you must right click on the icon and select the option Link control point-to-point.
When clicking on this option, a window will appear like the next one, with all the nodes added
to our project (in Installation Modules). Select the corresponding node for AC gateway, in the
case of the example, node 4 and press Ok.
Again, a window will appear to select the Carrier machine to add. It is reminded that this gateway
only controls up to 32 indoor climate units, so only the ones in use must be selected, though 0
to 63 machines are available. This is because that BUSing-AC icon added in Installation Modules
serves to program other BUSing AC gateways that can control more than one AC unit.

BUSING-CRAC-I V1.2
Once pressed Ok, the point-to-point control of the gateway would already be linked with its
corresponding icon on the PPL. For further information regarding programming a PPL, check its
programming manual.
Once downloaded the programming to the screen or webserver, the graphic interface for this
device would look like the following:
On the left side, the ambient temperature can be read, the next value in the rectangle is the
setpoint temperature. Finally, at the left bottom are the available modes of the AC unit, and on
the right side the speed.

Data 2 = 19: Low ventilation (Low)/Auto mode.
Data 2 = 20: Low ventilation (Low)/Heat mode.
Data 2 = 32: Medium ventilation (Medium)/Cold mode (Cool).
Data 2 = 33: Medium ventilation (Medium)/Dry mode.
Data 2 = 34: Medium ventilation (Medium)/Ventilation-only

Data 2 = 67: Automatic ventilation (Auto)/Auto mode (Auto).
Data 2 = 68: Automatic ventilation (Auto)/Heat mode.
Consignment temperature in ºC = Data 2 + 15
Temperature measured ºC = (164 – data 2)/2

Previously we have to have the BUSing-CRAC-I gateway properly connected as follows:

The only information to be turned to the gateway is the BUSing address. If you click on the icon
to reprogramme this node, no window will appear to confirm the programming, since the name
assigned to machine 1 in the gateway properties is necessary for point-to-point control linking
on a screen/web server.
