The MODBUS interface uses ‘TCP’ mode communication rather than ‘ASCII’ mode as this
provides more efficient use of the communication bandwidth. This mode of communication is
defined by the MODBUS standard.
The IED address and baud rate can be selected using the front panel menu or ASHIDA Relay
Talk RTV2 Software.
When using a serial interface, the data format is: 1 starts bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and 1 parity
bit.

Exception Codes generated in case of an error:
Code MODBUS Response Name Product interpretation
01 Illegal Function Code
The function code received in query is not supported
by the IED.
02 Illegal Data Address
The start address r
eceived in the query is not an
allowable value.
NOTE: If the start address received is correct but the
range includes unsupported address this error is
produced.
NOTE: The addresses of the MODBUS registers start from 1 and the user may have to subtract 1 from
the addresses, depending upon the configuration of the Master station configuration.
