QIG Version 2.2 4 CoolPlug CooLinkHUB
Do not use flammable materials (e.g. hairspray or insecticide) near the CoolPlug or
CooLinkHUB. Do not clean the CoolPlug or CooLinkHUB with organic solvents such as
paint thinner.
Use only a dry cloth to wipe if necessary. The maximum voltage that can be directly
applied to the CooLinkHUB is 24V DC. Do not apply AC110V or AC220V to the
CooLinkHUB or CoolPlug.
DO NOT INSTALL the COOLINKHUB or COOLPLUG IN THE FOLLOWING
LOCATIONS:
a) Where mineral oil mist or oil spray or vapor is produced, for example, in a kitchen.
Plastic parts may deteriorate and fall off.
b) Where corrosive gas, such as sulfurous acid gas, is produced.
c) Near machinery emitting electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves may
disturb or damage the operation of the CooLinkHUB.
d) Where flammable gas may leak, where there is carbon fiber or ignitable dust
suspensions in the air, or where volatile flammables such as thinner or gasoline are
handled. Operating the CooLinkHUB or CoolPlug in such conditions may cause a
fire.
e) In high temperature areas or near any flame.
f) In moist areas, or where there is exposure to water.

1. CooLinkHUB + CoolPlug
1.1 System Overview
The CooLinkHUB + CoolPlug is a solution for complete integration of Multi-Split and Mini-
Split HVAC units. The CoolPlug - HVAC designated adapter, connects directly to the HVAC
indoor unit on one side, and to the CooLinkHUB on the other, via a PBUS Network.
The CooLinkHUB - protocol converter allows integration to any Home Automation system.
1.2 Network Topology
The PBUS is a Cool Automation’s proprietary Bus, running on a shielded twisted pair cable
(24AWG). The PBUS utilizes free network topology (‘star’, ‘daisy- chain’, etc.) No loops allowed.
Up to 10 CoolPlugs can be connected in a single PBUS network.
1.3 CoolPlug Models
CoolPlug models are HVAC manufacturer specific. The letters on the sticker (DK, DKS, etc.)
indicate the HVAC manufacturer the CoolPlug relates to.
