1.1. RS485 socket details
Bus “port0” is intended to Modbus serial line with RS485 (i.e. no control flow)
Transmission mode:
Used for Local area network communication type by external devices.
With twisted shielded pair
distance up to 1000m without amplifier
Normally configurable at 9600, 19200 or 38400 baud in half duplex.
Parity bit may be active or deactivated. If parity is disabled, additional stop bits are
automatically set for frame timing considerations. Otherwise, parity may be odd or
even according to the settings chosen.
Exclusively RTU mode operates with configurable combination (No ASCII mode
permission)
1 start, 8 data, even parity, 1 stop bit
1 start, 8 data, odd parity, 1 stop bit
1 start, 8 data, even parity forced, 1 stop bit
1 start, 8 data, odd parity forced, 1 stop bit
1 start, 8 data, 2 stop bit
1 start, 8 data, no parity , 1 stop bit (EXCLUDED)
RTU protocol is compatible with both Little/ Big Endian for data field (i.e. either most
significant byte is sent first or Least significant byte is sent first)
Unit identifier must be declared from 1 to 247 as slave product number setup (i.e.
station number)
Cyclic Redundancy Check is made by the RTU protocol layer as defined in Appendix A
of “Modbus over serial line” specification available at
