Failure to follow CAUTION may result in serious injury,
property damage or in some circumstances, even
death.
Do not allow children to play with the CoolPlug or
CooLinkHub.
Do not disassemble, modify or repair the CoolPlug
or CooLinkHub, contact CoolAutomation support.
Any damage caused by your modication or repair
may result in an electric shock or re.
Do not expose CoolPlug or CooLinkHub to moisture.
Water can damage the CoolPlug or CooLinkHub,
resulting in an electrical components failure, electric
shock or re.
Do not use ammable 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 applied to
CooLinkHub directly is 24V DC. Do not apply
AC110V or AC220V to the CooLinkHub or CoolPlug.
DO NOT INSTALL 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 o.
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 ammable gas may leak, where there is
carbon ber or ignitable dust suspensions in the
air, or where volatile ammable such as thinner or
gasoline are handled.
Operating the CooLinkHub or CoolPlug in such
conditions can cause a re.

CooLinkHub + CoolPlug
System overview
CooLinkHub + CoolPLugs is a
solution for complete integration of
Multi-Split and Mini-Split HVAC units.
CoolPlug - HVAC designated adapter,
that connects directly to the HVAC
indoor unit on one side, and to
CooLinkHub on the other, by PBUS
Network.
CooLinkHub - protocol converter,
that allows integration to any Home
Automation system.

CoolPlug Models
CoolPlug models are HVAC manu-
facturer specic. The letters on the
sticker (DK, DKS, etc.) indicate the
HVAC manufacturer the CoolPlug
relates to.
Network Topology
PBUS is a CoolAutomation’s
proprietary Bus, running on shielded
twisted pair cable (24AWG).
PBUS utilizes free network topology
(‘star’, ‘daisy-chain’, etc.) No loops
allowed.
Up to 10 CoolPlug’s can be
connected in a single PBUS network.
