The connection to the CoolMaster is performed by a specified plug, as shown in the picture below.

The communication wiring usually consists of two wires with 0.75-1.25 mm2 cross section diameters.
The wiring diameters must be the same as the wires used within the air conditioning system, according
to the AC manufacturer requirements. The total wiring length within the system should not exceed AC
manufacturer limitations. The following table describes the wiring specifications for different
manufacturers

Connecting to the BMS/Home Automation Controller

The onboard RS232 connector of the CoolMaster is used for configuration, and connection to the
