If a request of the master is answered by the SIWAREX module (slave), the SIWAREX
module sends a response frame with or without errors. In the case of a response without
error message, the response frame contains the received function code; in the case of
errors, the highest bit of the function code is set. This corresponds to the Modbus standard.
Afterwards, the master requests the data record DR 32 to check which process-related data
or operator errors exist.
11.2.3
Data record concept
The register assignment is an image of the data records. The chapter → Scale parameters
and functions of the belt scale (Page 69) describes the data records, variables and functions,
including the register addresses. The data records are always checked as complete data
packets for plausibility. For this reason, you must follow a specific procedure to change
individual parameters.
