Domekt Komfovent C4 is a AHU (Air Handling Unit) for use in a HVAC system. The C4 is an older standard use from approx. 2011 to 2016.

Connection

Connect the unit to a computer using the provided RS485/ModBus cable extruding from the top. There is no need to add 820 Ohm 5V pull-up/gnd pull-down or 120 Ohm termination. It works fine as is.

The pin-out is as the following:

RJ-45 flat cable Wire color Function
Pin 1 Color Not used
Pin 2 Color Not used
Pin 3 Red +24VDC
Pin 4 Yellow RS485 A+
Pin 5 Green RS485 B-
Pin 6 White Gnd
Pin 7 Color Not used
Pin 8 Color Not used

Modbus settings

To establish a working connection, it's important to match the following connection parameters. A single wrong setting will make the connection not work at all.

Bits per second/baudrate 19200
Data bits/word length 8
Parity Even
Stop bits 1

It is also important to use the correct Modbus ID. It's the identifier on the bus and has to be correct in order for communication to happen with the AHU.

The C4 unit has a different Modbus ID than later models, so make sure to double check. Either of the following will work with only one unit on the Modbus line.

Modbus ID 20 (specific identification address) 254 (common identification address)

Register list

The C4 unit uses the following Modbus data register functions to read and write data.

A CR2032 battery keeps the registers concurrent when the unit is unplugged, ex. the time and date.

Read data: Function code 03 Operation status, temperatures, fans speed, and etc.
Write data single register: Function code 06 Turn on/off unit, set temperature, change auto/manual mode
Write data multiple registers: Function code 16 Set values with decimals/floating integers

Controller registers available on the C4 unit.
