Infinity Protocol Hardware
Proprietary ABCD port is really just RS485 serial(AB) and 24VAC(CD).
| Port | Suggested Color | Function |
|---|---|---|
| A | Green | RS-485 D+ |
| B | Yellow | RS-485 D- |
| C | White | 24v AC Common |
| D | Red | 24v AC Hot |
Discussion of the protocol is ongoing
Cheap ch341 based RS485 adapters like this one are known to work:
Be aware of RS485 adapters may use RS232 lines to drive the transceiver mode. If this is true, disconnecting the software on the PC may drive the RS485 chip to transmit mode and stop all communication on the bus. If this happens an error will show on the thermostat, but will go away if you remove the RS485 adapter from the bus.
Serial data is 38400 8N1 and is mostly the thermostat sending requests for data and the air handler/outdoor units replying with it.
