LPT-P - Operation Manual
Rev. B | 2018.08
NOTE
: While faults in the circuitry can be detected, a dead or damaged electrochemical sensor will
usually appear to the transmitter as a zero gas reading. To ensure safe operation, periodic bump
tests are required.
6.7 Modbus® Settings
The LPT-P transmitter operates on a local area network (LAN) using Modbus® RS-485 RTU serial
communications. Complete systems (controller with digital transmitters and peripherals) will be
shipped pre-confi gured with the appropriate Modbus® ID and baud rate.
In order for communication to be successful between devices, be sure your network connection is
complete, the network termination switches are set appropriately and all the devices are confi gured
with the same baud rate, character format, etc. Each device will have its own unique Modbus® ID.
Individual transmitters being added to an existing system may require changes to the default
Modbus® settings.
6.7.1 Change Modbus® ID
If required, you can change the Modbus® ID assigned to an LPT-P transmitter. In the Hardware
Confi guration Menu (passcode 1001), press either ARROW to scroll through the menu and select
Modbus®.
Press ENTER and use the ARROW keys to change the ID number. Move to the next digit by pressing
ENTER. When fi nished, press ENTER to save and Exit.
