Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway Modbus register map

Updated 16 October 2026

Short answer

Modbus RTU server that connects to the P1P2 remote-controller bus of a Daikin VRV or Sky Air indoor unit. All points are 16-bit holding registers covering on/off, mode, fan, vanes, setpoint, room temperature, alarm and Daikin error code, plus window-contact and virtual-temperature features.

This page lists 25 Modbus registers for the Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway — 14 writable — with the table, 0-based wire address, data type, word order, scale, units and access of each, re-typed from Intesis (HMS Networks)’s own free documentation (linked below) and checked against it.

Integration notes: Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway

Integration in brief

Wire RS-485 A/B, set the address on SW3 and the baud on SW3/SW4, reboot, then read holding registers 0-11 with function 03 and write with function 06. Check SW1: without a Daikin wired remote on the P1P2 bus the gateway must be set as header.

Minimum registers to map

Addresses are 0-based wire addresses. Enough to monitor and run the unit; map more as the job needs.

Enable Modbus control & writes

No enable step. Set a slave address on SW3 and keep register 7 (gateway disablement) at 0 so Modbus commands reach the unit.

Notes on this map

Check it against the live device. A register map tells you what the controller can expose; the unit in front of you may differ by firmware or options. Read a few registers and compare them with the unit’s own display; for a 32-bit value the float and byte-order decoder shows all four word orders at once, so a wrong word order or scale is obvious. New to this? Read what a register map is and why addresses are off by one.

Questions about the Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway

What Modbus registers does the Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway have?

This map lists 25 registers: 25 holding registers. 14 of them can be written. Registers vary with firmware, options and configuration, so confirm against the device.

Are the Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway Modbus addresses 0-based or 1-based?

The manufacturer's document numbers registers 0-based (the number printed is the address on the wire). Every address on this page is the 0-based wire address you put in the request; the documented number is shown under it where it differs. Tables list a 'protocol address' (base 0) and a 'PLC address' (base 1). The protocol address is the wire address and is what 'documented' holds; PLC tools that add 1 should use the PLC column.

What are the minimum Modbus registers to integrate the Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway?

Start with HR 0 AC unit On/Off (On/off); HR 1 AC unit mode (Mode); HR 2 AC unit fan speed (Fan speed); HR 4 AC unit temperature setpoint (Setpoint); HR 5 AC unit temperature reference (Room temperature); HR 10 AC unit alarm status (Alarm flag); HR 11 Error code (Error code).

How do I enable Modbus control of the Intesis (HMS Networks) INMBSDAI001R000 Daikin VRV / Sky Air to Modbus RTU gateway?

No enable step. Set a slave address on SW3 and keep register 7 (gateway disablement) at 0 so Modbus commands reach the unit.
