Appendix C
MODBUS Protocol
This appendix provides a description of the MODBUS Protocol
Interface and is supported both over RS-232/485 (RTU protocol) as
well as TCP/IP over Ethernet.
The MODBUS commands that are implemented are explained in
detail in this document. The MODBUS protocol support for the
iSeries enables the user to perform the functions of reading the various
concentrations and other measurement values, read the status of the
digital outputs of the analyzer, and to trigger or simulate the activation
of a digital input to the instrument. This is achieved by using the
supported MODBUS parameters listed below.
Up to three simultaneous connections are supported over Ethernet.
For details of the Model 5028i MODBUS Protocol specification, see
