The slave receives a valid request that cannot be answered
This occurs if a requested register does not exist. If the slave unit receives a valid request, but the requested readings
are not available, the slave unit will respond a specific exception message in order to inform the master about the
reason for this error.
The CS141 provides these error codes:
o
02H - Illegal Data Address
The address data obtained with the valid request is not a valid address servable by the slave.
o
03H - Illegal Data Value
A contained value inside a valid request is not an allowed for this slave.
o
06H - Slave device busy
The slave has received a valid request, but is currently busy with a time-consuming or time-critical process.
As a result, he cannot serve the master for now. For the master, there is no reason to assume a timeout- he
will repeat the request sometime later.
