MEMOBUS/Modbus Communications
This section gives detailed information about the parameters, error codes and communication procedures for
MEMOBUS/Modbus communications.
◆
Configure Master/Slave
You can use the MEMOBUS/Modbus protocol for serial communication with programmable controllers (PLC).
The MEMOBUS/Modbus communication uses one master (PLC) and a maximum of 31 slave drives. Serial
communications usually starts with a signal from the master to the slave drives.
A slave drive that receives a command from the master does the specified function and then sends a response back to
the master. You must set the address number for each slave drive before you start signal communications to make sure
that the master uses the correct address numbers.
A - Master (PLC)
B - Slave (drive)
