Protocol Point Summary
The following section provides a summary of Modbus properties available from the MicroTech III Chiller Unit
Controller. Tables 4-8 contains the complete list of chiller, circuit, compressor, pump, and miscellaneous data points
respectively. The items shown in boldface represent the minimum integration properties (as identified previously in
Table 3.)
Register Mapping
The Modbus Communication Module supports zero-based addressing. For example, holding register 40002 is addressed
as 0001 in a Modbus message. The following tables assume 4xxxx addressing. For example, 1 will be holding register
40001.
