10.3.2.2 RTU communication frame error check modes
During the transmission of data, errors may occur due to various factors. Without check, the data
receiving device cannot identify data errors and may make an incorrect response. The wrong
response may cause severe problems. Therefore, the data must be checked.
The check is implemented as follows: The transmitter calculates the to-be-transmitted data based on
a specific algorithm to obtain a result, adds the result to the rear of the message, and transmits them
together. After receiving the message, the receiver calculates the data based on the same algorithm
to obtain a result, and compares the result with that transmitted by the transmitter. If the results are
the same, the message is correct. Otherwise, the message is considered wrong.
The error check of a frame includes two parts, namely, bit check on individual bytes (that is, odd/even
check using the check bit in the character frame), and whole data check (CRC check).
Bit check on individual bytes (odd/even check)
You can select the bit check mode as required, or you can choose not to perform the check, which will
affect the check bit setting of each byte.
Definition of even check: Before the data is transmitted, an even check bit is added to indicate
whether the number of "1" in the to-be-transmitted data is odd or even. If it is even, the check bit is set
to "0"; and if it is odd, the check bit is set to "1".
Definition of odd check: Before the data is transmitted, an odd check bit is added to indicate whether
the number of "1" in the to-be-transmitted data is odd or even. If it is odd, the check bit is set to "0";
and if it is even, the check bit is set to "1".
For example, the data bits to be transmitted are "11001110", including five "1". If the even check is
applied, the even check bit is set to "1"; and if the odd check is applied, the odd check bit is set to "0".
During the transmission of the data, the odd/even check bit is calculated and placed in the check bit of
the frame. The receiving device performs the odd/even check after receiving the data. If it finds that
the odd/even parity of the data is inconsistent with the preset information, it determines that a
communication error occurs.
CRC check mode
A frame in the RTU format includes an error detection domain based on the CRC calculation. The
CRC domain checks all the content of the frame. The CRC domain consists of two bytes, including 16
binary bits. It is calculated by the transmitter and added to the frame. The receiver calculates the CRC
of the received frame, and compares the result with the value in the received CRC domain. If the two
CRC values are not equal to each other, errors occur in the transmission.
During CRC, 0xFFFF is stored first, and then a process is invoked to process a minimum of 6
contiguous bytes in the frame based on the content in the current register. CRC is valid only for the
8-bit data in each character. It is invalid for the start, end, and check bits.
During the generation of the CRC values, the "exclusive or" (XOR) operation is performed on the
each 8-bit character and the content in the register. The result is placed in the bits from the least
