9.2 General Information

This instrument uses a subset of the standard Modbus RTU function codes to provide access to process-related information. Several MODICON function codes are implemented. It is appropriate to define instrument-specific "user-defined" function codes. Where differences occur between the two protocols it will be noted. Several standard Modbus RTU function codes are supported.

Configuration ID Tags

Function codes 20 and 21 use the RS422/485 tag IDs for accessing configuration and process-related data. These tags are fully explained in Section 10.

The tag IDs represent the register addresses used in the Request Message.

Other Modbus Codes

For Modbus codes other than for accessing configuration and process-related data for this controller, refer to the Modbus RTU Serial Communications User Manual # 51-55- 25-66.
