Below is a subset of standard Modbus functions that are supported by this
module along with the reference register addresses that the function
operates on. Use these functions to access these registers as outlined in
the Register Map for sending and retrieving data.
The following Modbus functions operate on register map registers to
monitor, configure, and control module I/O:
CODE FUNCTION

Read Coil (Output) Status 0xxxx
02 (02H)

If an unsupported function code is sent to a module, exception code 01
(Illegal Function) will be returned in the response. If a holding register is
written with an invalid value, exception code 03 (Illegal Data Value) will be
returned in the response message. You may refer to the Modbus
specification for a complete list of possible error codes.

Note:
For Model 962EN-4006, the slave ID is “01” and the firmware
number is “9300-119”.

For your convenience, 9xxEN Ethernet modules mirror the contents and
operation of registers 0xxxx, 1xxxx, & 3xxxx (as applicable) into holding
register space for systems and controllers that cannot directly access
registers 0xxxx, 1xxxx, & 3xxxx.
All Modbus registers of this model can now be written to, or read from, using
either the standard methods described in the Modbus specification, or
through mapping (mirroring) to the Holding Registers. The registers are
mapped as follows and specifics follow the mapping:
Register Functions
IMPORTANT:
When using
your own software to
manipulate the module, please
note that the maximum query
through the Modbus TCP
interface is only 50 registers,
due to the maximum buffer
size limitations of the TCP/IP
stack. As such, you can only
request data from 50 registers
at one time for commands that
access multiple registers. For
example, the Read Holding
Registers command may only
retrieve the contents of
registers 40001 to 40051 in
one read.
