This section describes codes which can be used in the
function and data fields of a Modbus RTU message.

5.8.11 Modbus Exception Codes
For a full explanation of the structure of an exception code
response, refer to
.
Code Name
Meaning
1
Illegal
function
The function code received in the query is
not an allowable action for the server (or
slave). This may be because the function
code is only applicable to newer devices,
and was not implemented in the unit
selected. It could also indicate that the
server (or slave) is in the wrong state to
process a request of this type, for
example because it is not configured and
is being asked to return register values.
2
Illegal data
address
The data address received in the query is
not an allowable address for the server
(or slave). More specifically, the
combination of reference number and
transfer length is invalid. For a controller
with 100 registers, a request with offset
96 and length 4 would succeed, a request
with offset 96 and length 5 generates
exception 02.
3
Illegal data
value
A value contained in the query data field
is not an allowable value for server (or
slave). This indicates a fault in the
structure of the remainder of a complex
request, such as that the implied length is
incorrect. It specifically does NOT mean
that a data item submitted for storage in
a register has a value outside the
expectation of the application program,
since the Modbus protocol is unaware of
the significance of any particular value of
any particular register.
4
Slave device
failure
An unrecoverable error occurred while the
server (or slave) was attempting to
perform the requested action.

5.9 How to Access Parameters
5.9.1 Parameter Handling
The PNU (Parameter Number) is translated from the
register address contained in the Modbus read or write
message. The parameter number is translated to Modbus
as (10 x parameter number)
decimal
. Example: Reading
3-12 Catch up/slow Down Value
(16bit): The holding register
3120 holds the parameters value. A value of 1352
(Decimal), means that the parameter is set to 12.52%
