Modbus

1.Verify that the BAS and controller are both set to speak the Modbus RTU protocol. The protocol of the controller is set via SW3 (switches 3, 4, 5, and 6). The protocol can also be verified by getting a Modstat of the controller through the BACview. Hit the ”FN” key and the ’.’ key at the same time to pull up a Modstat. Scroll to the bottom of the page and there is a section entitled “Network Communications.” The active protocol and baud rate will be shown in this section.

2.Verify that the BAS and controller are set for the same baud rate. The baud rate of the controller is set via SW3 (switches 1 and 2). The baud rate can also be verified via the BACview by obtaining a Modstat (See Fig. 59).

3.Verify that the BAS is configured to speak 2-wire EIA-485 to the controller. The BAS may have to configure jumper or DIP switches on their end.

4.Verify that the BAS and the controller have the same communication settings (8 data bits, No Parity, and 1 stop bit).

5.Verify that the controller has a unique Modbus slave address. The controller’s Modbus slave address is set by its rotary address switches.

6.Verify that the BAS is using the proper Modbus function codes to access data from our controller. Supported function codes are shown above.

7.Verify proper wiring between the BAS and the controller.

8.Verify that the BAS is reading or writing to the proper Modbus register numbers on the controller. Download the latest points list for the controller to verify.

9.Verify that the BAS is sending his requests to the proper slave address of our controller.
