Introduction
This document describes the integration of
Mitsubishi Electric’s City Multi series air conditioning systems into KNX
compatible devices and systems using the Intesis KNX
to Mitsubishi Electric’s Centralized Controller communication
gateway
.
The aim of this integration is to monitor and control your Mitsubishi Elecitric City Multi air conditioning system, from
your KNX TP-1 installation. To do it so, Intesis performs as a one more KNX device, sending and receiving telegrams
to group addresses in the KNX network.
This integration requires the Mitsubishi Electric City Multi AC
system to be equipped with a Mitsubishi Electric’s
Centralized Controller for MNET (G-50A, GB-50A, AG-150A, EB-50, EW-50 or AE200 and newer). This Centralized
Controller offers the signals of the City Multi AC system through XML protocol at its Ethernet port, which is accessed
by the Intesis. Every Centralized Controller from Mitsubishi Electric allows access to the signals of up to 50 City Multi
indoor units groups, no matter the number of outdoor units installed. In the Centralized Controller, the control unit is
the group, each of which can have from 1 to 16 associated indoor units.
MNET’s Centralized Controller is offered by Mitsubishi Electric. Each different model has different features (some
incorporate just a blind cover, others have a keyboard and
an LCD panel). Mitsubishi Electric’s Expansion Controllers
can be connected to the MNET Centralized Controller in order to extend support to more than 50 indoor unit groups
(50 additional groups for each Expansion Controller). Expansion Controllers in MNET system is also supported by
Intesis.
Intesis needs to be configured using Intesis MAPS software configuration tool. In the software, KNX
and MNET’s
Centralized Controller parameters must be selected and downloaded to the Intesis.
Up to
15
indoor unit groups (1 Centralized Controller) or 100 indoor unit groups (2 Centralized Controllers) are
supported, depending on the version of the gateway.
This document assumes the user is familiar with KNX and Mitsubishi Electric technologies and technical terms.

NOTE:
Please take into acount that most Mitsubishi Electric Centralized Controllers
require a software license, PC-Monitoring license (SW-Mon), that must be purchased
together with the controller in order that the XML interface is active and can be used by
the Intesis.
