RS485 interface. This provides multi-drop, digital network capability that can be used to connect multiple 9186 series transmitters to a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) or Personal Computer (PC). The 9186 is designed as a Modbus RTU slave, which allows a Modbus RTU master to access measurements, settings, and alarms.
Modbus Communication 8.3.1 Read Input Registers—Function Code 03 This command reads the binary contents of a holding register in the 4xxxx address range. The query message specifies the starting register and quantity of registers to be read. Registers are addressed starting at zero. Table 13 is an example that requests the value from register 40001.

8.4.3 Floating Point Support The original Modbus protocol specification did not support floating point numbers. These are implemented in the 9186 as IEEE 754 floating point numbers, and are stored in two back-to-back 16 bit registers. Table 19 is an example that requests the value from register 40001-40002.
