Kbox MITT CN105 - Mitsubishi Electric KNX Gateway

Product Features
Kbox MITT CN105 is the version of the gateway that connects to Mitsubishi Electric air conditioners through the CN105 connector. It works with indoor units from the PAC, RAC, City Multi VRF and Mr.Slim series.
CN105 is the service connector on the indoor unit board. Kbox MITT CN105 plugs in there, which leaves the wired controller terminal (TB15) free so an existing controller can stay in place.
The setpoint is limited to 19–30 °C in cooling and 17–28 °C in heating. Fan is addressed as 5 levels plus Auto, the vertical vane as 5 positions plus Swing.
Integration Notes
- Required AC setting: on a CN105 connection the indoor unit must be configured to read its thermistor data from itself (the indoor unit sensor). This is the exact opposite of the TB15 model; mixing the two up leaves the ambient temperature never updating.
- Virtual Setpoint Calculation: some Mitsubishi Electric units using the CN105 port cannot transmit the ambient temperature at all. On such a unit this feature keeps comfort-temperature operation working. In ETS, in order: set the "Ambient Temperature" parameter to From Bus, then enable "Selection of Thermistor" and set its "Type" parameter to Only AC suction air thermistor. In the Kbox family this feature exists only on the CN105 model.
- Do not confuse it with TB15: if you will wire into the wired controller terminal, use Kbox MITT TB15.
- Logic units: 10 "Additional Function" blocks, each with 7 logic, 4 arithmetic, 6 comparison and 3 type-conversion operations.
