5.1 Register Mapping Overview

The MODBUS-GW uses 16-bit registers. One Modbus Input register and one Modbus Holding Register are allocated for each device
address. These registers represent a contiguous address mapping of all devices and points.

5.2 Point Status Holding Registers

Each of the point status holding registers are divided into an upper and lower byte as described below and in
• Upper Byte: The upper byte contains general status information about the point.
• Lower Byte: The lower byte is primarily used when bit 11 in the upper byte is a '1' (or active). When bit 11 is a '1', refer to
Appendix C, "MODBUS-GW Active Event Types"
if the device is not in an active state.
Specifically, the lower byte contains the actual active event for this point. An active state is defined in this gateway as any Fire,
Security, Critical Process, Medical, Mass Notification, or Supervisory alarm state. If the point is not present in the panel
programming, all bits in the lower byte will contain a '1' or the value FFH. The only possible active event type for zones is
Non-Fire Activation (71H). See
Bit No.
Bit Name
When individual upper byte bits are set to 1, the following definitions apply:

Ack Prealarm Trouble
Block
• Ack Block (Bit 15): All events on this point, other than fire alarm, are
acknowledged. Not applicable for zones.
• Prealarm (Bit 14): The point is in a prealarm state. Not applicable for zones.
• Trouble (Bit 13): The point is in a trouble state. Not applicable for zones.
• InActive (Bit 12): The point is not active.
• Active (Bit 11): The point is active and there will be an active event type in the
lower byte.
• Enable (Bit 10): The point is enabled.
• Disable (Bit 9): The point is disabled.
• Ack Fire Alarm (Bit 8): The fire alarm on this point is acknowledged. Not
applicable for zones.
