Motion Coordinator Technical Reference Manual
Communications Protocols 13-6
MODBUS RTU
(16) Preset Multiple Registers
Notes
The following baud rate limitations should be observed when attaching a HMI
panel to the Motion Coordinator using Modbus.
Some HMI’s use the standard MODICON addressing for registers and I/O. If this is
the case, use the following mappings:
• Holding Registers 40001 + are mapped to VR(0) +
• Inputs 10001 to 10272 are mapped to IN(0) to IN(271) when the appropriate I/
O expansion is fitted.
• Output Coils 9 to 272 are mapped to OP(8,s) to OP(271,s) where s is the state
(ON or OFF)
