HOW DOES IT WORK?
VRF and VRV systems design is a closed and proprietary communication loop between the condensers and evaporators. These communication loops vary from one manufacturer brand to another. Traditionally, controlling and integrating these VRF HVAC systems controls, requires the mediation of a brand-specific interface device, as each manufacturer utilizes its own unique communication protocol.
With CooMaster, you don’t need a sperate mediation device for each brand, or to implement a different logic of integration with each of them separately. CoolMaster connects with all brands and provide a universal unified interface for integrating control and monitoring capabilities to your preferred Home Automation or Building Management System.
CoolMaster enables a bi-directional universal communication channel between the VRF HVAC and the automation systems, that enables Automation integrators and HVAC Professionals to:
- Natively integrate Home and Building Automation Systems with VRF HVAC
