10.3 Description of communication parameter settings
Modbus station address (8 bit)
This address is used to identify the controller in bus or modem mode. In a system, each con-
troller needs to be assigned a unique address.
Modem dialing pause (P)
We recommend to keep dialing pause for approx. 3 to 5 minutes between dialing up to the
control system/the text messaging center to avoid a permanent overloading of the telecom-
munications network. The Modem dialing pause denes the interval between two dialing at-
tempts.
Modem timeout (T)
When the controller connects to the control station (GLT) but without addressing a Modbus
data point, the connection is terminated after the time specied for 'Modem timeout' has
elapsed. If the error status register has not been read during the GLT connection, the control-
ler dials up the GLT again after the Modem dialing pause (P) has elapsed.
When sending a text message, the specied time is without meaning.
Number of redialing attempts (C)
The controller tries to dial up to the control system again, observing the Modem dialing
pause, in case the GLT/text messaging center is busy or the function that triggered the call
has not been reset by the controller. After the specied number of redialing attempts have
failed, OFF is indicated in the controller's extended operating level. The dialing attempt
counter is automatically reset at 12:00h and the controller tries to connect again.
