2Comm-Box
Comm-Box provides complete access to your Munters controllers, including monitoring and control
capabilities, from any computer.
2.1 Junction Box
Connecting a Comm-Box directly to a controller requires a Junction Box. Refer to Connecting the Comm-
Box to a Controller, page 8.
•RS-485 Network: 904-99-00037 COMMBOX -POU- JUNCTION BOX RS485
2.2 What Comes in the Package
•Comm-Box
•Power supply cables 115VAC and 230VAC
•Ethernet cable

3Comm-Box Hardware Installation
This document details how to install Munters' Comm-Box unit. Installation consists of:
•Mounting the Comm-Box
•Grounding
•Connecting the Comm-Box to the Internet
•Connecting the Comm-Box to a Peripheral Device
•Connecting the Comm-Box to a Controller
NOTE No software installation is required.
3.1 Mounting the Comm-Box
•Using the screws provided, mount the unit.
•Connect the ground cable to the dedicated ground terminal.

© Munters AB, 2019 8
3.3 Connecting the Comm-Box to the Internet
•Connect the Comm-Box to your Internet connection/modem.
If required, connect a screen, keyboard, or mouse to the Comm-Box (via the USB/HDMI ports).
The only step in installing a Comm-Box that requires wiring is if the Comm-Box is connected directly to a
controller (instead of to a communication unit). In this situation the Comm-Box must be wired to the
controller communication card.
WARNING!
Disconnect the power before beginning!
WARNING!
Only an authorized electrical technician may perform this procedure!

3.5.1 CONTROLLER TO JUNCTION BOX WIRING
•In the controller, connect the Comm-Box to the controller's communication card. Refer to the
following illustrations.
1. The cable between the external connection
box and the controllers should be a 3 wire
twisted shielded cable (22 or 24 AWG).
2. Connect the wiring as follows:
oCOM to COM
oThe Comm-Box A port is connected to
Controller's A port.
oThe Comm-Box B port is connected to
Controller's B port.
3. The final controller in any chain or branch
requires a 120 ohm terminator.
4. Connect the cable shield wire to the controller
ground strip.
Figure 1: RS-485 Wiring
•The Comm-Box comes with the power supply wired to the unit. See Figure 2.

4Comm-Box Communication
Each Comm-Box unit comes with two software packages installed (Munters provides the license for both
packages):
•GreenNet
•TeamViewer
There are two ways to enable the Comm-Box to communicate to controllers (via the GreenNet software):
•TeamViewer via an existing LAN
•TeamViever via a modem and a data SIM card
4.1 TeamViewer Definition
CAUTION Munters recommends testing the connection via Teamviewer before installing the Comm-
Box in the field by an authorized technician only!
Green Net is installed on your Comm-Box. The following chapter describes how to connect to your Green
Net program.
•Setting up TeamViewer: Silver Sticker ID
•Setting up TeamViewer: Retrieved ID
•Technical Support
4.1.1 SETTING UP TEAMVIEWER:SILVER STICKER ID
Comm-Box is an industrial PC that can work:
•Locally, using a keyboard and screen (refer to Connecting the Comm-Box to a Peripheral
Device, page 8)
•Remotely via TeamViewer.
TeamViewer requires an ID number (the Partner ID). On the package in which your Comm-Box arrives is a
silver sticker. The unit’s Partner ID appears on this sticker.
Figure 6: Silver Sticker Sample
Use this ID number when connecting via TeamViewer.
1. Download and install TeamViewer from the web onto your remote PC.
oDownload the Personal Use version.
oDo not install the program on more than five computers!

© Munters AB, 2019 13
oRun the Basic Installation. The following screen appears:
oThe Remote Control ID and Password can be used on other computers to remotely access
the Comm-Box.
2. Enter your Partner ID (found on the silver sticker on the Comm-Box carton): The following screen
appears:
3. Enter the password: $Rfgt5. The following screen appears:

This is the Green Net program as viewed through TeamViewer.
4. To simplify moving through screens, Munters recommends clicking on the Actions tab and
checking the Send key combinations checkbox.
4.1.2 SETTING UP TEAMVIEWER:RETRIEVED ID
In the event that the Silver Sticker ID does not work, the following procedure explains how to find the
Comm-Box’ ID number.
To retrieve the Partner ID:
1. Connect the Comm-Box to a keyboard and screen and apply power.
