ClimateMaster’s Communicating Service Tool (ACDU03) allows install and service technicians to confi gure and diagnose 
ClimateMaster Digital Communicating Units without installing a digital communicating thermostat.  

Using the Service Tool, a technician can ELECTRONICALLY:

1. Confi gure items like: airfl ow, heat pump options and confi guration, pump or modulating valve operation, unit family, unit 

size, etc.

 AND

2.  Diagnose the unit by operating it manually, performing control diagnostics, viewing dip switch confi gurations, or by 

viewing fault history and operating conditions when a fault occurred.

The Service Tool connects to the DXM2 board with a 4-Wire Connector as shown below:

3.6 MULTI-UNIT 

CONFIGURATION

If multiple units are connected to one ATC thermostat upon 
unit start-up, the thermostat will automatically register the 
serial numbers of all units connected to it.

thermostat or connected to one another in series, as shown 
by the fi gure below.

3.6.1 MULTI-UNIT 

AIRFLOW
