Troubleshooting
Should you encounter problems communicating over
ModBus, the following items should be checked in this order:
1.
Physical Layer
2.
Communications Confi guration and Port Settings
3.
ModBus Error Codes
4.
Unit Status / Blocking / Lockout Codes
Physical Layer
1.
Check that all components have power (Boiler, Gateway,
BAS Master)
2.
Check all wire lengths. Are any drops too long?
3.
Check proper shield grounding
4.
Check A, B terminal connections
5.
Check for Terminating Resistors (120 ohms)
6.
Check for broken wires
Communications
1.
Check Dip Switch Confi guration of Communication
Board
2.
Check Baud Rate (9600, 19200, etc.)
3.
Check Parity (ModBus only)
4.
Check Slave ID
5.
Check Port Setting on Master, Gateway, and Computers
ModBus Error Codes
1.
Check ModBus communication for error codes (see page
9 for ModBus Exception Codes)
2.
Check ModBus PDU
3.
Check Slave ID
4.
Check ModBus Command
5.
Check Confi guration bits for Holding Register 40001
6.
Check Commands and data for Holding Registers
40002 - 40007
Unit Status Codes
See Codes in this section.
Boiler Status
Th e boiler/water heater status code indicates what the unit is
actually doing. Th is status code should be compared to the
command issued and what is expected. If the boiler/water
heater status code does not agree with the command issued,
check communication and confi guration.

ModBus and BACnet Communication Instructions
Status Codes (Input Register 30014 or Analog Input AI13)
2 = Heat Demand blocked due to high absolute outlet
temperature
3 = Heat Demand blocked due to high absolute fl ue
temperature
4 = Heat Demand blocked due to high absolute Delta T
(Outlet - Inlet)
8 = Heat Demand blocked due to Low 24 VAC
9 = Outdoor shutdown
10 = Block due to switch OFF boiler (ON/OFF of Display)
12 = Block due to no correct communication Cascade
16 = Service function
19 = DHW function Storage Tank
21 = SH function Heat demand from Room Th ermostat
22 = SH function Heat demand from Boiler Management
System
23 = SH function Heat demand from Cascade
30 = Heat demand activated by Freeze Protection
32 = DHW Pump Delay
33 = SH Pump Delay
34 = No heat function (aft er pump delay)
40 = Lockout
32764 = Busy with updating status
32765 = DHW blocked due to no present tank sensor
32766 = Burner control(s) manually shut down
32767 = Code not present
Blocking Codes (Input Register 30015 or AI14)
0 = No blocking _> is divided into sub blockings
1 = SH blocking
2 = Blocking Due to Low 24 VAC Supply
3 = Blocking due to General block
4 = Blocking MRHL is open
5 = Blocking due to Switched OFF boiler (Display ENTER
switch)
6 = Blocking due to wrong communication of Cascade
7 = Blocking due to High Delta
8 = Blocking due to High Flue Temperature
9 = Blocking due to High Outlet Temperature
10 = Service blocking
12 = DHW blocking high outlet temperature (DHW confi gured
as storage tank)
13 = Blocking anti-cycling time
14 = Storage Tank demand Blocked due to Fan problems
15 = No system sensor connected and leader control present
16 = Limit fan speed due to high outlet temperature
17 = Fan min decreased due to low fl ame current
18 = Limit max fan speed due to high Delta T
19 = Limit max fan speed due to high fl ue temp
32767 = Code not present
