Code Name Meaning
1 Illegal The function code received in the query is
function not an allowable action for the server (or
slave). This may be because the function
code is only applicable to newer devices,
and was not implemented in the unit
selected. It could also indicate that the
server (or slave) is in the wrong state to
process a request of this type, for
example because it is not configured and
is being asked to return register values.
2 Illegal data The data address received in the query is
address not an allowable address for the server
(or slave). More specifically, the
combination of reference number and
transfer length is invalid. For a controller
with 100 registers, a request with offset
96 and length 4 would succeed, a request
with offset 96 and length 5 generates
exception 02.
3 Illegal data A value contained in the query data field
value is not an allowable value for server (or
slave). This indicates a fault in the
structure of the remainder of a complex
request, such as that the implied length is
incorrect. It specifically does NOT mean
that a data item submitted for storage in
a register has a value outside the
expectation of the application program,
since the Modbus protocol is unaware of
the significance of any particular value of
any particular register.
4 Slave device An unrecoverable error occurred while the
failure server (or slave) was attempting to
perform the requested action.

10.11 How to Access Parameters

10.11.1 Parameter Handling

The PNU (Parameter Number) is translated from the
register address contained in the Modbus read or write
message. The parameter number is translated to Modbus
as (10 x parameter number) DECIMAL.

10.11.2 Storage of Data

The Coil 65 decimal determines whether data written to
the frequency converter are stored in EEPROM and RAM
(coil 65=1) or only in RAM (coil 65= 0).
