USER DEFINED REGISTERS
As previously mentioned, ‘User Defi ned’ can be selected for all slaves and for some slave types it is the
only way of accessing some or all parameters.
The number of the register holding the required parameter is to be found in the user documentation sup-
plied with the slave. For instance, if the unit to which this manual refers, were to be a slave, then the list
of registers is to be found in
section 8
. For example, for this instrument, to determine what type of alarm,
alarm 1 on channel 2 is,
register 396
would be used, and the expected value would be 0 for Absolute
low, 1 for absolute high, 2 for Deviation in, 3 for Deviation out, 4 for Rate-of-change high or 5 for Rate-of-
Change low.
