Connected to An RS232 Slave DSE Module
NOTE: For details on how to use the PLC to read from another DSE module's GenComm
registers, refer to DSE Publication: 057-314 Advanced PLC Software Manual which is found on
our website: www.deepseaelectronics.com
The module operates as a master controller to read from another DSE module's GenComm registers.
In a MODBUS system, there is only one Master, therefore ensure the other DSE module's RS232
Port Usage is configured to Gencomm to act as a slave and respond to the master DSE module's
queries as specified in its PLC.
For further details see section entitled RS232 Used For PLC Communication elsewhere in this
document.

Slave ID 10
RS232 PLC Master
The DSE module's PLC requests certain information that are defined as Gencomm registers to read
from the MODBUS slave module. The DSE module then uses the read information to perform certain
functions which are configured in its PLC Editor.
Description of Controls
Showing the DSE module's RS232
Port configured to PLC Comms
The factory settings are for the module to
communicate at 115200 baud, MODBUS slave
address 10.
To use the RS232 port to read from another
DSE module, ensure that 'port usage' is
correctly set using the DSE Configuration Suite
Software.
