4  Controller ON: 
 The module starts / initialization begins. 
 As soon as the two LEDs "BSP" and "BUS" are steady green, com-
munication with the controller and Modbus bus is active. 
 
Caution: HMI must be reset a second time to update; prior to parame-
terization. 
5  Configure module.

Modbus 
 
Parameter  Range  Function 
State  −  OK. 
−  Alarm 
Module state. 
Comm failure  −  Passive 
−  Active 
Communication error between module and con-
troller. 
Channel 0 / Channel 1. Displays as of this point the data for the first Modbus channel (channel 0, terminal T1) 
and the second Modbus channel (channel 1, terminal T2) of the module. 
These are the corresponding parameters, with the exception of enable: 
Enable.  −  Passive 
−  Active 
Modbus channel 1 only: Displays whether Mod-
bus channel 1 (terminal T2 on the module) is 
enabled or not. 
Caution: This parameter must always be set to 
passive. 
Slave  −  Active 
−  Passive 
Displays whether the channel is used. 
Slave address    Current address for the Modbus connection on 
the bus. 
Baud rate  −  2400 
−  4800 
−  9600 
−  19200 
−  38400 
Displays transmission rate per the Modbus. 
Stop bits   
−  One 
−  Two 
Displays number of stop bits: 
−  One stop bit. 
−  Two stop bits. 
Parity  −  None 
−  Even 
−  Odd 
Displays parity. 
Response timeout  0…3600 [sec]  Settings access time for master. 
The master must undertake read access within 
this period, otherwise an alarm is triggered (this 
function is not yet fully implemented). 
 
Parameter  Range  Function 
Termination   
 
−  Passive 
−  Active 
A RS485 topology must always be ended using 
wave resistors. 
−  Terminating resistor disabled. 
−  Terminating resistor enabled. 
Settings channel 0 / 1    Go to parameter page for the first / second Mod-
bus channel.
