Interface description
Communication parameters
For communication to work properly, the transmission mode
(and serial port parameters) must be the same for all devices on
a Modbus serial line.
The default communications parameters are set to:
•
Baud Rate: 9600 baud
•
Data Bits: 8 (fixed)
•
Parity: None
•
Stop Bits: 2 (fixed)
Modbus RTU mode requires each data byte to be 11 bits (refer to
Figure 1).
Bits per Byte:
•
1 start bit
•
8 data bits, least significant bit sent first
•
1 bit for parity completion
•
1 stop bit

*
When no parity is selected (default for the 266) the parity completion bit is
replaced by another stop bit.
The parity bit can be set from NONE to EVEN or ODD parity. The
transmitter automatically adjusts the number of stop bits.
Figure 2 depicts a typical Modbus message format.

Description
Indicates the quiet time before a data transfer
In the request frame, this is the device being
addressed.
In the response frame, this is the device answering the
request.
In the request frame, this is the command byte. It
presents the device with a read or write sequence.
In the response frame, this could be echoed or could
be returned as an error code.
In the request frame, the data is held in the beginning
register and read along with the number of
consecutive registers.
In the response frame, this is the data being read.
Indicates a data validity test of the data being sent.
Indicates the end characters
