12.4 MODBUS SERIAL PORT CONNECTIONS
To use the Modbus communications port the user must connect a suitable RS-485 driver and Modbus
host device to the GFM Auxiliary cable A3W0352. Connect the RS-485 driver output “A/( TxD-/RxD-)”
to the “BLUE” (Pin 7) wire. Connect the RS-485 driver output “B/( TxD+/RxD+) ” to the WHITE (Pin 1)
wire. Connect the RS-485 driver output “COM” to the “PINK” (Pin 6) wire. The RS-485 driver “COM”
should also be connected to the user supplied GFM Power Input common.
The following is the pin out for the GFM AUX Cable (P/N: A3W0352).
Modbus RS-485 B(TxD+/RxD+) serial port
User supplied Power Input VIN+ (12-28 VDC @100 ma)
CR-A - Will be active when gas flow is within programmed limits.
CR-B – Will be active when gas flow is within programmed limits.
User supply power common VCOM
Modbus RS485 and Vout analog common
Modbus RS-485 A(TxD-/RxD-) serial port
Gas Flow Analog output VOUT+ (0.00 – 2.55 vdc)
