Comments
Tertiary Variable (TV)
Frequency Output (if
present on your transmitter)
If one assignment is changed, the other is changed auto-
matically, and vice versa. If your transmitter does not have
a Frequency Output, the TV must be configured directly,
and the value of the TV is available only via digital commu-
nications.
Quaternary Variable (QV)
Not associated with an out-
put
The QV must be configured directly, and the value of the
QV is available only via digital communications.

Overview
Modbus/RS-485 communications parameters control Modbus communication with the
transmitter's RS-485 terminals.
Procedure
1.
Set Disable Modbus ASCII as desired.
Support for Modbus ASCII limits the set of addresses that are available for the
transmitter's Modbus address.
Modbus ASCII support
Available Modbus addresses
Disabled
1–127, excluding 111 (111 is reserved to the service port)
Enabled
1–15, 32–47, 64–79, and 96–110
2.
Set Protocol to match the protocol used by your Modbus/RS-485 host.
Option
Description
Modbus RTU (default)
8–bit communications
Modbus ASCII
7–bit communications
If support for Modbus ASCII is disabled, you must use Modbus RTU.
3.
Set Modbus Address to a unique value on the network.
4.
Set Parity, Stop Bits, and Baud Rate as appropriate for your network.
5.
Set Floating-Point Byte Order to match the byte order used by your Modbus host.
Integrate the meter with the control system
