CHAPTER 1: COMMUNICATIONS GUIDE MODBUS FUNCTIONS
345 TRANSFORMER PROTECTION SYSTEM – COMMUNICATIONS GUIDE 1–173
The commands that can be performed by the 345 using function code 05 can also be
initiated by using function code 10.
Function Code 06H
Modbus Implementation: Preset Single Register
345 Implementation: Store Single Setpoint
This command allows the master to store a single setpoint into the memory of a 345 The
slave response to this function code is to echo the entire master transmission.
For example, request slave 17 to store the value 2 in setpoint address 04 5C. After the
transmission in this example is complete, setpoints address 04 5C will contain the value
01F4. The master/slave packet format is shown below:

Function Code 07H
Modbus Implementation: Read Exception Status
345 Implementation: Read Device Status
This is a function used to quickly read the status of a selected device. A short message
length allows for rapid reading of status. The status byte returned will have individual bits
set to 1 or 0 depending on the status of the slave device. For this example, consider the
following 345 general status byte:

1 Reset
4 Open
5 Close
96 Close Last Trip Data Prompt
97 Reset MWh and Mvarh Meters
99 Clear Counters
100 Clear Event Records
102 Clear Maintenance Info
