3.13 Modbus Port Indicator Codes
If the BM detects a condition that prevents communication at its Modbus Plus or Modbus ports it shuts off all ports and displays an error code pattern at its four Modbus port indicators
Indicator layouts are shown in Figure 22
The error pattern produces two bit codes for two hexadecimal digits First the indicators show a steady pattern for one second indicating the upper digit Then they show a flashing pattern for one second with the lower digit The continuous and flashing patterns alternate repetitively Port is the most significant bit in each code
