12.2.5.1 Accessing Register Values
You can use any MODBUS application to access (read from or write to) register
values. Both commercial (e.g., "Modscan") and free programs (from
The following sections describe how to access both the registers and their values.
12.2.5.2 Watchdog Registers
The watchdog monitors the data transfer between the fieldbus master and the
controller. Every time the controller receives a specific request (as define in the
watchdog setup registers) from the master, the watchdog timer in the controller
resets.
In the case of fault free communication, the watchdog timer does not reach its end
value. After each successful data transfer, the timer is reset.
If the watchdog times out, a fieldbus failure has occurred. In this case, the
fieldbus controller answers all following MODBUS TCP/IP requests with the
exception code 0x0004 (Slave Device Failure).
In the controller special registers are used to setup the watchdog by the master
(Register addresses 0x1000 to 0x1008).
By default, the watchdog is not enabled when you turn the controller on. To
activate it, the first step is to set/verify the desired time-out value of the Watchdog
Time register (0x1000). Second, the function code mask must be specified in the
mask register (0x1001), which defines the function code(s) that will reset the
timer. Finally, the Watchdog-Trigger register (0x1003) must be changed to a non-
zero value to start the timer.
