Changing the Modbus Configuration
If the factory Modbus configuration does not suit your needs, the existing Modbus
Slave modules can be relinked to other parameters that you want to access through
Modbus.
If your Modbus Master device requires data in a format different than that
provided by the factory Modbus configuration, you can edit the setup registers in
the Modbus Slave modules. These setup registers specify the Modbus format,
scaling and base address settings. Refer to the ION Reference for complete details
on the Modbus Slave module.
Modbus Slave Modules
The ION 8000 Series meter has ten Modbus slave modules. Modules 1 - 5 are part
of the original modbus mapping and are preserved for backward compatibility. If
you are using the new Modbus mapping (modules 6 - 10), you can delete modules
1 - 5.
The settings for your Modbus Slave modules follow.
