4. Modbus RTU
4.1. Overview
Modbus RTU communication is supported using Function Codes 03 Read Holding Registers and 06 Write Single Holding Register.
All internal registers are Holding registers. There are no other register types present within the drive.
Registers 1 to 4 only support Function Code 16 Write multiple Holding Registers.
Modbus RTU communication is enabled by default for Read access.
To control the drive through Modbus RTU, parameter P-12 should be set to 3 or 4. Refer to the programming guide for further
information on the parameter settings.
When an external Modbus RTU device is used to control the drive, Digital Input 1 acts to provide a local enable / disable signal.
The drive will not operate unless digital input 1 is ON. Additional functions may be assigned to other input terminals. Refer to the
Installation guide for details of the digital Input function assignments that are possible.
