5.5 Modbus communications
Warning!
Place controls in manual mode when making configuration changes to the
turbine meter.
5.5.1 Applicable flowmeter models
Spirax Sarco RIM20 Mass flowmeters with Modbus communication protocol and firmware
version 4.00.58 and above.
5.5.2 Overview
This document describes the preliminary implementation of the Modbus communication
protocol for use in monitoring common process variables in the Spirax Sarco RIM20 rotor
insertion flowmeter. The physical layer utilizes the half-duplex RS-485 port, and the Modbus
protocol.
5.5.3 Reference documents
The following documents are available online from www.modbus.org.
Modbus Application Protocol Specification V1.1
Modbus Over Serial Line Specification & Implementation Guide V1.0
