REDUCED REGISTERS TABLE  

FOR SERIAL COMMUNICATION 

Communication Protocol 

The  MOSBUS  RTU  slave  is  implemented.  All  configurable 
parameters  can  be  accessed  for  reading  or  writing  through  the 
communication  port.  Broadcast  commands  are  supported  as  well 
(address 0). 
The available Modbus commands are: 

03 - 

Read Holding Register

 

06 - 

Preset Single Register

 

05 - 

Force Single Coil

 

16 - 

Preset Multiple Register

 

Holding Registers Table

 

Follows a description  of the usual communication  registers. For full 
documentation  download  the  Registers  Table  for  Serial 
Communication  in  the  N1200  section  of  our  web  site  – 

www.novusautomation.com

All registers are 16 bit signed integers.  

Address  Parameter 

Register Description 

0000  Active SP  Read:  Active  control  SP  (main  SP,  from 

ramp and soak or from remote SP). 
Write: to main SP. 
Range: from 

spll

 to 

spkl

0001 

PV 

Read: Process Variable. 
Write: Not allowed. 
Range:  Minimum  value  is  the  one 
configured in 

spll

 and the maximum value 

is  the  one  configured  in 

spkl

.  Decimal 

point position depends on 

dppo

 value. 

In  case  of  temperature  reading,  the  value 
read  is  always  multiplied  by  10, 
independently of 

dppo

 value. 

0002 

MV 

Read: Output Power in automatic or manual 
mode. 
Write: Not allowed. See address 28. 
Range: 0 to 1000 (0.0 to 100.0 %).
