Aurora ‘Base’ Control
The Aurora ‘Base’ Control
(ABC) System is a complete
residential and commercial
comfort system that brings
all aspects of the HVAC
system into one cohesive
module network. The ABC
features microprocessor
control and HP, LP, and
freeze detection, over/under voltage faults, along with
communicating thermostat capability for complete fault
detection text at the thermostat.
Aurora uses the Modbus communication protocol to
communicate between modules. Each module contains
the logic to control all features that are connected to
the module. The Aurora ‘Base’ Control (ABC) has two
Modbus channels. The first channel is configured as a
master for connecting to devices such as a communicating
thermostat, expansion board, or other slave devices. The
second channel is configured as a slave for connecting the
Aurora Interface Diagnostics Tool (AID Tool).
Service Device Description Aurora ‘Base’

NOTE: Although the ABC has basic compatibility with all
Aurora, new product features may not be available on older
AID Tools. To simplify the basic compatibility ensure the
version of AID is at least the same or greater than the ABC
software version.
