MODBUS TEST 10-5
MON2000
JULY 2010 Set Up Port via WinMB
Typical settings are:
Note that the RTU protocol permits a more
efficient data transmission for it uses
significantly less bits than ASCII.
5. Check the Com ID setting. The Com ID is
the slave address defined by MON2000.
6. Verify that the RW setting is either “R” or
“RW”.
7. Click the button to accept your

To determine or reset the communications
parameters used by WinMB,
Table 10-2 Typical GC Communications Parameters
Parameter RTU Setting ASCII Setting
Data Bits 8 7
Stop Bits 1 1
Parity None Even
Handshake None None
RTS On 00
RTS Off 0 0
Ptrcl RTU ASCII
RTS On/Off settings are
required only when line
settling is needed before
data transmission begins.
Record the true Device ID
number for future use.
