Supported device types and versions


MODBUS RTU MASTER supports data reading from the analyzers Circutor CVMk.

Communication line configuration


  • Communication line category: Serial.

  • Parameters of asynchronous line depending on the design and type of device connection – see literature about Circutor.

Communication station configuration


  • Communication protocol: MODBUS Circutor CVMk.

  • Station address is a decimal number in the range of 0 up to 255 or a hexadecimal number with a hash at the beginning (e.g. #1A).

 

Station protocol parameters

There can be defined the following parameters:

Table 1

Key word

Full name

Meaning

Unit

Default value

RC

Retry Count

Number of retry calls when an error in communication occurs.

-

2

RT

Retry Timeout

Delay between retry calls if an error in communication occurs.

ms

200 millisec.

WFT

Wait First Timeout

First waiting on the response after sending a call.

ms

100 millisec.

WT

Wait Timeout

Delay between the readings of a response until it is completed.

ms

100 millisec.

MWR

Max Wait Retry

Number of retry response reading until it is completed.

-

15

String with protocol parameters is written according to this rule:

Key_word=value;Key_word=value;...

Example:

RC=1;RT=500;

If a key word with valid value has not been found in the initial string, default value is used according to Table 1.

I/O tag configuration


I/O tags: Ai

Address – decimal number in the range of 0 to 65535 – number of MODBUS double register, or a hexadecimal number with a hash at the beginning (e.g. #0ABC).

The values are read by 2 registers and interpreted as a 4 byte integer. The addresses of values are described in literature about Circutor.
