SERIAL Modbus Protocol Selection and Configuration for Port 3 and AUX COM
Modbus requires parameterization above that of the unit number, baud rate, and frame selection. The philosophy
is that (if the hardware is provided on the card) one or both ports may be configured with Standard Ten Byte or
Modbus (ASCII or RTU). The parameterization requires entry of constants in the Parameter Section of the
Communication configuration menu tab (Via WinECP) or Configuration Menu (via the Front Panel Interface). If as
per the above tables, the Modbus card is to be configured via software (ECP or WinECP), the following must be
configured via the front panel interface or via WinECP.
The following table represents Option 2 Communications Settings:
Parameter 1 ModeParameter 1 Mode Parameter 2 (COM3) RS485 (AUX)
0 Disabled Disabled STD STD
1 Disabled Disabled Modbus RTU STD
1 Enabled Disabled Modbus ASCII STD
2 Disabled Disabled STD Modbus RTU
2 Disabled Enabled STD Modbus ASCII
3 Disabled Disabled Modbus RTU Modbus RTU
3 Enabled Disabled Modbus ASCII Modbus RTU
3 Disabled Enabled Modbus RTU Modbus ASCII
3 Enabled Enabled Modbus ASCII Modbus ASCII
NOTE: STD is Standard Ten Byte Protocol Selected.
If a Modbus capable card is inserted into the unit, the configuration screen appears as shown in Figure 4-7. The
Baud and Frame Options allowable for RTU and ASCII communication are shown in Table 4-4.
