Gree BACnet Instance Calculator (GMS GW Converter)

Free browser tool · nothing is uploaded · 5 November 2026

Gree's GMS GW 1 and GMS GW 12 converters number every split unit's objects from its line and remote control address. Pick the unit series, enter the address and get the instances.

Short answer

GMS GW instance = class x 1048576 + (line - 1) x 131072 + remote control address x 256 + object number. Common objects are class 0, series-specific ones class 1. Line 1, address 5 setpoint (object 0) is 5 x 256 + 0 = AV 1280.

    How the numbers are built

    instance = class x 1048576 + (line - 1) x 131072 + address x 256 + object

    PartMeaningRange
    class0 = common objects, 1 = series-specific objects0-1
    lineRS-485 line of the converter (the gateway shows units as L<line>.<address>)1-2
    addressRemote control address set on the unit's wired controller0-63
    objectObject number inside the unit's block0-255

    Each split unit's remote control address (0-63 per line) is set on its wired controller; the gateway shows it as L1.005 and so on. GMS GW 1 handles one unit, GMS GW 12 up to 12 units on two lines.

    Worked example: line 1, address 05 (L1.005)

    The first objects for line 1, address 05 (L1.005) on the M / W / P / X series (DWUNI controller), worked out with the formula above (M / W / P / X series (DWUNI controller)):

    Formula and objects from Gree Mini Split (GMS) BACnet Converter User Manual · 1.1 · rev. 2023-12-11 (Version 1.1) (manufacturer document ↗), re-typed in our points list. Object names are shown as printed.

    Check it against the live device. The calculator applies the formula from the manufacturer’s documentation; the gateway in front of you may expose fewer objects or use other numbers after a firmware change. Easy BACnet scans a network for BACnet IP devices from an Android phone and reads every object on them — a quick way to confirm one unit before you map a whole building.

    Questions

    How do I work out a Gree instance number?

    GMS GW instance = class x 1048576 + (line - 1) x 131072 + remote control address x 256 + object number. Common objects are class 0, series-specific ones class 1. Line 1, address 5 setpoint (object 0) is 5 x 256 + 0 = AV 1280.

    Why are some Gree objects above one million?

    Series-specific objects are class 1, which adds 1048576 (2 to the power of 20) to the instance. They differ between DWUNI (M/W/P/X) and R-series units, so pick the right series.

    Who makes the Gree GMS GW?

    The converter is made by CoolAutomation for Gree, which is why its numbering looks like the CoolMasterNet scheme.

    Is this Gree calculator official?

    No. It applies the formula printed in Gree's own documentation to the points list in our library. Confirm the numbers against a scan of the live device before you map or write anything.
