G. OPERATION – MODBUS INTERFACE
1. Modbus Configuration:
The table below summarizes the Modbus
configuration details:
2. Modbus Holding Registers:
Modbus communicates using “words” (the contents of
16 bit holding registers). The 852-1 Interface Adapter
organizes the data in read-only holding registers. Table
2 shows the information that is available for reading
and the address of the holding registers. Depending on
the type of Modbus software used, the holding register
addressing range starts at either 0x0000 or 0x0001.
The values of STATE and ERROR_NUMBER can
be used to determine whether the boiler control is
operating correctly, not communicating or in an
error state.

* FLOW_TEMP is the boiler supply (outlet) water temperature.
To read these values, issue a Modbus command to read a holding register. For example, if a command is issued to read
0x0000 the resulting, unsigned word may read, “0x090F”. The high byte for this word is “0x09”. Table 3 shows that this value
indicates that the burner is on. The low byte for this word is “0x0F”. This indicates that the boiler is on as a result of the freeze
protection algorithm as shown in Table 4.
