  • Page 89: Requesting The Measuring Value Of All Channels Of An Rcms470-12

    The actual measuring values of all 12 channels of an RCMS470-12 with address 12 are to be interrogated. For that purpose the Modbus RTU Master at first interrogates channel 1 (output data): The Modbus RTU Master sends an appropriate command to FTC470XMB (function 16, output data): Word 1...

    The following example shows the Master takeover, the subsequent interrogation and Master return. In this example it is assumed that BMS address 2 is assigned to FTC470XMB 2. By assigning BMS address 1 to the FTC470XMB, it would anyway have the Master function.

    The examples below show the taking over of the Master function, the subsequent activity and the Master return. All the examples are based on the assumption that the BMS address of the FTC470XMB is 2. By assigning BMS address 1 to the FTC470XMB, it would anyway have the Master function.
  • Page 92 The channels 11 and 12 of a residual current evaluator RCMS470-12 with address 10 are to be switched off because they are not used. In this way the measuring time of the devices can be reduced. At first, the Modbus RTU Master instructs the FTC470XMB to take over the Mas- ter function...
