Not intended for the end user or Smart Homes Systems such as Alexa, Google, etc... Please consult a professional integration expert before exploring the RS485 Communication Protocol.The RS485 Circuitry card can be found in the main wire harness tray located in the rear of the fireplace.

IntroductionThis document describes the RS485 communication protocol used to control Aquafire&#xAE; Pro fireplaces from external automation systems.The RS485 interface allows integration with a wide range of automation platforms including:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">Building Management Systems (BMS)</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Hospitality Automation Systems</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Residential control systems</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Third-party automation controllers supporting RS485 serial communication</li></ul>The fireplace operates as a child device and responds to commands sent by a parent&#xA0;controller.The communication protocol has been designed to be:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">simple</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">reliable</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">easy to integrate</li></ul>Typical applications include:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">hotels</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">restaurants</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">commercial spaces</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">residential installations</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">automation systems</li></ul><hr>2. Integration Responsibility and Support ScopeAquafire fireplaces operate as&#xA0;RS485 child devices.External automation systems such as Building Management Systems (BMS), smart&#xA0;home platforms, or custom integration controllers operate as parent devices and are responsible for communication management, programming logic, and overall system integration.Aquafire provides the RS485 communication protocol and device functionality&#xA0;required for integration with external automation systems.Because automation platforms vary between installations, the configuration,&#xA0;programming, and troubleshooting of third-party automation systems must be&#xA0;handled by the system integrator or the manufacturer of the automation platform.Aquafire technical support covers:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">device operation</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">RS485 protocol documentation</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">command structure</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">how the fireplace responds to commands</li></ul>Aquafire does not provide programming or configuration support for third-party&#xA0;automation systems, including:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">BMS configuration</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">smart home controller programming</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">automation platform configuration</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">network or Wi-Fi infrastructure issue</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">troubleshooting unrelated to the fireplace hardware</li></ul>For integration issues, the system integrator should verify that the automation controller configuration and RS485 communication setup follow the protocol described in this document before contacting Aquafire support.<hr>3. Safety and Integration NoticeThe RS485 interface is intended for integration by qualified installers or system&#xA0;integrators.Before connecting the RS485 interface:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">Ensure the fireplace is properly installed</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Follow all applicable electrical regulations</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Use a shielded twisted-pair communication cable</li></ul>The automation controller must manage communication timing and system supervision.<hr>4. Quick Start for IntegratorsTo integrate the fireplace into an automation system:<ol><li style="font-size: 16px;">Connect RS485 A and RS485 B to the automation controller</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Configure the device address if required</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Send commands using the frame format defined in this document</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Use the status query command to monitor device status</li></ol>Communication parameters:Baud Rate: 9600Data Bits: 8Stop Bits: 1Parity: None<hr>5. System ArchitectureThe fireplace communicates using a parent / child architecture.The automation controller operates as the parent device.The fireplace operates as a child device.Example RS485 network:Controller&#x2502;&#x2502; RS485 BUS&#x2502;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;Fireplace #1 (Address 01)Fireplace #2 (Address 02)Fireplace #3 (Address 03)&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;&#x2500;System behavior:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px;">The parent sends commands or queries</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">The fireplace responds only when addressed</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Invalid addresses are ignored</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Invalid commands are ignored</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">If communication is interrupted, the fireplace maintains its current operating state</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">A watchdog mechanism is implemented in the device</li></ul>Maximum devices per RS485 bus:30 devicesDevice address range:01 &#x2013; 255Default device address:01<hr>6.
