Description
The Room Temperature Control Unit eTR 101 Modbus measures the room
temperature and displays the current value. The target temperature can be changed
using the + and - touch buttons.
The eTR 101 Modbus is a Modbus server with RS485 interface and RTU protocol.
Modbus client, e.g. PC, SPS or MC, can read the measured values and other settings
with "Function 04h (read input registers)" or with "Function 06H (write single regis-
ter)" and "Function 10H (write multiple registers)" adjust, for example, the display of
the setpoint or the basic setpoint shifts.
Functions:
•
Temperature measurements.
•
Display of the current temperature or the setpoint and the basic setpoint
shifts
•
2 touch keys (+/-) for changing the target temperature or the basic setpoint
shifts

Views and device operation
3.1. Adjust room temperature
Depending on the setting from the modbus client, the Room Temperature Cont-
rol Unit eTR 101 Modbus displays the current room temperature value or the set-
point or the shift compared to the basic setpoint. Using the client, the operating mo-
de, the type and the brightness of the display, along with other values, can be set.
Possibility A: Display off
The LED display is off. Manual changing of the target temperature using the +/- keys
is not possible.
Possibility B: Current temperature displayed (room temperature)
The current room temperature is displayed. Manual changing of the target tempe-
rature using the +/- keys is not possible.
Possibility C: Display of the target temperature or basic target temperatu-
re
Depending on the setting, the current setpoint or the shift compared to the basic set-
point is displayed. The target temperature can be adjusted by pressing the +/- keys.

Setpoint display (absolute value):
Display of the basic setpoint shift (change compared to the basic setpoint of the
controls):
Possibility D: Display of the current temperature and the target tempera-
ture / basic setpoint shift
In normal mode, the current room temperature is displayed. Touching the keys
changes the display to the target temperature or the basic setpoint shift, depending
on the setting. Changes with + or - become visible. The display returns to room tem-
perature if a touch key is not pressed for 5 seconds.
Gently press touch key + or -: The current target temperature (or the basic setpo-
int shift) is displayed.
Press +: Increase room temperature
(Target temperature / basic setpoint shift is increased).
Press -: Lower room temperature
(Target temperature / basic setpoint shift is lowered).
General information:
The increments for the change and the possible setting range are specified using the
modbus client.

Transmission protocol
Apart from register 0, 1, 4 and 5, the values communicated by the client are stored
per register in the server.
