PKE12/32/65 1.1 Introduction The PKE-COM-RTU module is used to control the PKE motor or circuit breaker via a programmable logic controller and to record the information from the PKE. The PKE-COM- RTU is connected directly to the PKE12, PKE32 and PKE65.
PKE65. The trip blocks used, which can be combined with the PKE basic devices, must be of type PKE-XTUA or PKE-XTUWA. For each PKE-COM-RTU, a PKE with PKE trip block can be connected. The following PKE trip blocks of the type "Extended" can be combined with the PKE basic devices PKE12, PKE32 and PKE65.

All DIP switches set to 0 will reset the device to the factory setting after it has been supplied with power. 1.6 Changing modules DANGER Replacing the module or the PKE is only permissible after the entire Modbus RTU system has been switched off.

Addressing is performed individually for each PKE via the DIP switches on the respective PKE-COM-RTU module. It is independent of the physical connection (position) in the network. A bus termination resistor is required at the last module on the Modbus line.
Data (N x 1 Byte) CRC (2 Bytes) Figure 4: Data exchange between master and slave The PKE (slave) only sends a response if it has received a request from the master beforehand. PKE-COM-RTU Modbus RTU communication interface for PKE12/32/65 03/20 MN034005EN...
The address of the slave (1 to 63) to which the request goes is set via the DIP switches • at the PKE-COM-RTU. Only the PKE with this address can respond to the request. Address 0 is used as a so-called Broadcast (message to all bus users) from the master.
