12.0 MODBUS SCPECIFICATIONS
12.1 GFM MODBUS REGISTER DATA
This document provides the basic Modbus memory map and command structure for the GFM
RS-485 communications port. The GFM supports the Modbus Protocol as specified in the
Modicon Technical publications “Modbus Protocol” (intr7.html). The GFM control does not support
the Broadcast mode. The controller provides the slave side communications routines for the RTU
mode. The user must set the Slave ID to 1-247 the default ID is set to 1. Default Baud rate is
19.2 K baud with 8 data bits, One Stop and no parity. The following Modbus commands are
supported:
Preset Multiple Registers
All Modbus Register values are word sized unsigned integer unless otherwise indicate.
