•
Modbus TCP Port for TCP to RTU Router
- the default port is 502. As long as this
field is not 0, the router is enabled, which lets the meter communicate with
Modbus TCP/IP Master devices.
•
Enable BACnet/IP Control Objects
- Check this box to allow direct access to
Modbus registers. If enabled, the Control Objects are represented by the following
three Analog-Value BACnet Objects:
•
500001
is a writeable object called MOD_ID_TARGET (“target device
identifier to be read/written”). Since the meter has a hard-coded Modbus
address of “1” only this value needs to be entered before first access to a
Modbus register. The default = -1.0. -1.0 also means do not execute
#500003 (neither read nor write).
•
500002
is a writeable object called MOD_REGISTER (“register to be read/
written”); for example, “1000” to access the first register of volts A-N. The
default = -1.0 after any reboot. -1.0 also means do not execute #500003
(neither read nor write).
•
500003
is a readable/writeable value called MOD_VALUE (“value to be read
from or written to select register”).
The MOD_REGISTER resets with -1.0 after each Read/Write (whether or not
successful), from/to MOD_VALUE with valid MOD_ID_TARGET and
MOD_REGISTER. MOD_REGISTER will also be set to -1.0 30 seconds after it is
written to.
