  • Page 3: Intended Use

    It is recommended to run cable containing 4 wires and a shield to each GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter from a network junction box. This accommodates one pair of twisted wires into the con- nected unit, and one set out to connect to the next unit.
  • Page 4: Modbus Configuration

    If parity is not used, then two stop bits must be specified. In addition to the standard frame format, non- standard 10-bit frames are also supported. In this case the GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter will issue warnings but not prohibit the use of these formats.
  • Page 5: Supported Messages

    Modbus addresses may be between 1 and 247. While some GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter parameters are configurable via a management system, GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter local mode takes precedence. To stop a management system changing configuration while operating in local mode, set Block All Remote Changes, or Block Remote Total Changes as appropriate, in the Modbus Setup menu.
  • Page 6: The Register Map

    The Register Map. A GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter Modbus register is depicted in Figure 3. A few points need to be noted. The interpretation of Modbus registers or register sets is important. All data is in BIG ENDIAN format. In BIG ENDIAN format the most significant portion of a number is stored in the lower addresses.
  • Page 7 Modbus Supplement to the operating instructions The management system programmer may choose to use the Time and Date associated with the GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter, or use the Time and Date associated with their system time by simply reading a block of registers starting at either offset 100 or offset 104.

  • Page 10: Reading Registers

    Modbus Supplement to the operating instructions GF U3000 V2 Ultrasonic Flowmeter Reading Registers Registers may be read singularly or in blocks. It should be noted that registers are updated once every second in an atomic operati- on. In this way this register set can be considered a single data point. It should be obvious that reading multiple single registers cannot ensure that the data returned is from the same data set.

A simple example are the Totals registers. In normal operation they are updated and may be read by the MBM, but they may also be used to rest the totals using the procedure outlined in the ensuing paragraphs.
