M8121- Send wait flag. When send is completed, M8121 is automatically reset.

M8122 - Send request flag. When send is completed, M8122 is automatically reset.

M8123 - Receive completion flag. When the data is received, M8123 is turned
ON, transfer the Receive data to another save destination, then reset

Read data from slave

D0 - Station number (High byte) and Command code (Low byte)

D0= H103 means Slave ID = 1 (ID range 0-31) and Command code 03 ( Read
Holding regisers)

D1 - Slave start address to read the value

D2 - Master start address for store the received data (read addresses)

H1 - Channel number of RS485 port (High byte), No of data to be read (Low byte).
H indicates hexadecimal value
Read through the channel 0, No of data to be read 1 then value H1
Read through the channel 0, No of data to be read 16 then value H10

Note : Reset M8123(Receive completion flag) after data receive

Write data to slave

D0 - Station number (High byte) and Command code (Low byte)

D0= H106 means Slave id = 1 (Id range 0-31) and Command code 06 (single
register write)

D1 – Slave start address to write the value

D2 - Master start address for send data

H1- Channel number of RS485 port (High byte), No of data to be write (low byte).
H indicates hexadecimal value
Read through the channel 0, No of data to be read 1 then value H1
