Precautions for Correct Use
Precautions for Correct Use
In the 3G3RX-V1 Series Inverter, Read Coil Status function of Modbus communication was
changed to use the same byte order as that of the 3G3MX2 Series when transferring data over 1
byte.
Receive data in the data layout as shown below, according to the number of data bytes to be
read.
• Data received as 1-byte data (1 to 8 coils)
Coil 8 to Coil 1
• Data received as 2-byte data (9 to 16 coils)
Coil 8 to Coil 1
• Data received as 3-byte data (17 to 24 coils)
Coil 8 to Coil 1
• Data received as 4-byte data (25 to 32 coils)
Coil 8 to Coil 1
Example
To read data from multi-function input terminals S1 to S6 of the inverter with slave address 8.
