Mitsubishi PAC-US445CN-1 Third-Party Thermostat Interface

Mitsubishi PAC-US445CN-1 Third-Party Thermostat Interface

I have a Mitsubishi MSY mini-split that I am trying to control with an Ecobee thermostat. Am I correct that in this case I would need the PAC-US445CN-1 adapter which would plug into the wall-mounted unit to provide the standard wires for my Ecobee thermostat?
