The Modbus Protocol (Modbus/TCP)
8.1
Introduction
Modbus/TCP is an open protocol based on TCP/IP. It was one of the first protocol types
to become standard in industrial Ethernet interfaces for process data transfer.
Modbus frames are exchanged via the TCP/IP port 502. Every master IP address is ac-
cepted. Modbus exclusively uses the coding 'BIG ENDIAN' (Motorola data format or high
byte first).
Access via 'Peer Cop' is not possible. Make sure that the bus master supports 'IO scan-
ning'.
Modbus/TCP is integrated into the DHR41B option as of firmware version .11.
8.1.1
Mapping and addressing
The logic Modbus address scope is 64 k words and is addressed via the reference num-
ber (offset). Four different tables can be in the address scope:
• Binary inputs (RO)
• Binary outputs (RW)
• Input register (RO)
• Output register (RW)
The tables can be separated or overlapping.
The DHR41B option provides the following data areas:
• For the process data transfer, there is a table that allows for write access (for setpoint
values) as well as for read access (for actual values).
This table starts at offset 4 and ends at offset 0FF
hex
. It contains the 1 64 cyclically
transferred process data words.
• The process data output words from the controller are also saved in another table. It
allows for one or several additional clients (e.g. visualization) to read the current set-
point values.
This table starts at offset 104
hex
and ends at offset 1FF
hex
.
• A third table is provided for the parameter access.
This table starts at offset 200
hex
, ends at offset 2FF
hex
and contains 4 words of the
MOVILINK
®
parameter channel (see 'Fieldbus Unit Profile' manual).
• The remaining address scope from offset 400
hex
to FFFF
hex
is reserved and must
not be addressed.
The data word at offset 219
hex
(8606
dec
) is a special case, it allows for writing (and
reading) the timeout monitoring time.
TIP
For Schneider Electric control systems:
The address range often starts with 40001
hex
, which corresponds to an offset with the
value '0'.
