(2) Outline
The Modbus protocol is the communication protocol developed by Modicon for PLC.
The Modbus protocol performs serial communication between the master and slave using the dedicated message frame.
The dedicated message frame has the functions that can perform data read and write. Using the functions, you can read
and write the parameter values from the inverter, write the input command of the inverter, and check the operating status. In
this product, the inverter data are classified in the holding register area (register addresses 40001 to 49999). By accessing
the assigned holding register address, the master can communicate with the inverter which is a slave.
REMARKS
There are two different serial transmission modes: ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) mode and RTU
(Remote Terminal Unit) mode. This product supports only the RTU mode in which 1-byte (8-bit) data is transmitted as-is.
Only the communication protocol is defined by the Modbus protocol, and the physical layer is not stipulated.
