necessary for your system integration requirements. As a minimum, the gas readings and
fault status registers should be polled.

ModBUS Base Address (Read/Write)
The ModBUS base address register is located at address 1000 and has
a default value of 40,000.
• This may be changed by writing a new value within the permissible
range to that address.
• Subsequent addresses must take this new base address into
consideration.
• The base address may be changed by writing to address 1000,
regardless of its contents.

• For systems that use five-digit addressing, 4XXXX:
• If the first digit is an internal system requirement and does not
appear in the communications packet, write the value 1000 to
address 41000. The base address is now 41000 and the first
valid address is 41001.
• If all five digits appear in the communications packet, the
default base address is 40000 and the first valid address is
40001.
