D.4 MODBUS REGISTER ASSIGNMENTS
Each register is identified by a unique number, and the list is organised by this number.
For each register, the contents are described, along with the data type of the contents.
The data type is always 32 bits unless stated otherwise. Variable names are given for
reference purposes only. They have no other use.
Note: All units locations (registers 3, 4, 5 and 26) MUST be set before entering other
values.
In some cases the data in a register is used to represent a non-numerical quantity, known
as an index. For example, the units of density can be kg/m
3
, gm/cc, lb/gal or lb/ft
3
and
these are represented by the numbers 91 to 94. Thus if Register 3 (line density) contains
the value (index) 91, this means that the units of line density are kg/m
3
. Index values
may, of course, be used for more than one register.
Tables of these indices are given in section D.5.
