Connect to MODBUS RS485 Network WarnIng This Heat-Timer control is strictly an operating control; it should never be used as a primary limit or safety control. all equipment must have its own certified limit and safety controls required by local codes.
TO MODBUS neT MODBUS TyPe • H eat-Timer Platinum controls can be ordered with or upgraded to MODBUS communication. • T he Platinum MODBUS communication uses RTU protocol and RS485 wiring. • W hen upgrading a standard Platinum control to MODBUS communication, the CPU Board on the back of the Platinum control must be replaced. In addition, the MODBUS Communication Board must be installed. See "Platinum Control Rear View" on page 1. MODBUS rS485 WIrIng MODBUS Communication • H eat-Timer Platinum control MODBUS communication uses a RS485 connection. Board • C onnect the RS485 to the back of the Platinum control's MODBUS Communication Board. • U se 18 AWG Twisted-Pair cable. The cable length must not exceed 3500 feet. • T he Ground RS485 terminal (G) MUST be connected to the BMS RS485 Ground. A(+) B(-) alerT...

HWr Platinum notes ♦1 If specified, divide a read value by this to obtain the actual value – Multiply desired value by this before writing . ♦2 For variables that specify them, if a read value is a special value (32000 - 32005), do not divide by ‘MULT' . ♦3 Strings are packed 2 characters per register, most significant byte first .

note: All variables are stored as ‘Holding Registers’ . MODBUS functions : • ‘Read Holding Registers’ (function code 3), • ‘Write Single Register' (function code 6), • and ‘Write Multiple Registers’ (function code 16) are supported . note: All variables with multiple UOM’s depend upon the value of ‘Input Mode’ to determine which to use . note: Use 'District Steam Delay' when 'Operating Mode' is set to District Steam .
