Technical data Modbus
Bus system
Transmission rate

Response time:
(to system response)
The Interface works only if the Phase 1 is connected.
■
The communication is ready 30s after the Power On
■
The use of Energy meter in Bus with intensive communication could reduce the performance of the Bus
■
Refresh Time for the Data is 10 s. For this reason one energy meter should be not polled faster as 10s.
■
247 devices could be connected to the Modbus. Over 128 Devices, a repeater should be used.
■
The Interface don't have a terminal resistor, this should be provided external.
■
For a description of the used Registers please look at the Register Page
■
Data transmission
Only «Read Holding Registers [03]/ Write Multiple Registers [16]» instructions are recognized.
■
Up to 20 Registers can be read at a time.
■
The device supports broadcast messages.
■
In accordance with the Modbus protocol, a register R is numbered as R - 1 when transmitted.
■
The device has a voltage monitoring system. In case of voltage loss, registers are stored in EEPROM
■
(transmission rate, etc.)
Exception Responses

Change the Modbus address direct on device
To modify the Modbus address, press 3 sec on ► touch
■
In menu, ▼ increase address by 10, ► increase by 1
■
Once the address is selected wait for the root menu to come back
