SEL-2032 Communications Processor Instruction Manual Date Code 20120126
Protocols
Modbus RTU Protocol
Table 9.3 contains a summary of Modbus mapping for the SEL-2032. The
summary also contains a brief list of the capabilities of the SEL-2032 that are
available with each data type. You must use the correct register references and
Modbus function codes for the Modbus master you are using to access the
data.
Sophisticated Modbus masters utilize standard Modbus register references and
automatically create Modbus messages using Modbus function codes. For
example, HMI drivers such as Wonderware
®
InTouch
®
require that you enter
reference that includes the Modbus register reference. You can use the
Modbus mapping listed in Table 9.3 to create the correct Modbus reference.
For example, the first register of the User region is F800h. If you wish to
access this register as a holding register, convert to decimal (63488) and add 1
and place the type identifier (4) before the number for a reference of 463489.
There are additional examples and information about Modbus references in
Function Codes on page 9.12.
Modbus protocol compatibility facilitates connection to many Remote
Terminal Units (RTU), and to most Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)
and PLC Networks.
Settings
From Port F or another master port, use the SET P 12, SET P 14, or SET P 16
command to set the device type to MASTER and the protocol to MODBUS.
The SEL-2032 will prompt for the map style, device ID offset, and Modbus
slave address for each of 18 ports. With the map type setting, you select
between the default map which contains floating-point data and the integer-
only map. With the device ID offset setting, you can select an offset for the
