1. Product description
1.1
IOT-S300WS9 can be used for all-weather on-site monitoring of meteorology,
gas and other elements. It can be connected to a computer through a
communication line or transmit data to a computer or server's meteorological
database through wireless networking for statistical analysis and processing.

1.2 Features
This product uses built-in sensors which is small in size and integrates multiple
elements to meet customers' needs for environmental information.

Using the measuring unit imported from Switzerland, the measurement is

accurate, the value is stable with small error.

The output signal is RS485, the standard Modbus-RTU communication

protocol, supports functions such as changing the communication address and
baud rate. The 485 communication can theoretically communicate up to 1200
meters away, supports secondary development, and is widely used.

The product provides wireless transmission methods such as 4G, NB-IOT,

WiFi, etc., and provides a general-purpose IoT platform, which is deployed on
the public network server, and is easy to operate, aiming to provide customers
with one-stop service.

5.1Modbus communication protocol
Communication basic parameters：

baud rate 9600 （default）

data bits 8 bits
stop bit 1 bit
Check Digit /
Device address 1 （default）

Host query frame structure：

Address Function Register start address Number of registers CRC16 check
code code High Low High Low Low High
1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte

Slave acknowledgment frame structure：

Address code Function code Number of valid bytes Data area Check code
1 byte 1 byte 1 byte N byte 2 byte

Address code: It is the device address of the transmitter, which is unique in the
communication network (the factory default is 0x01). When the 485 bus is connected
to multiple 485 devices, do not set the same device address

Function code: The function command sent by the host, there are two common
register commands in the Modbus protocol:
(1) Read single or multiple register values: function number 3 (0x03), used to read
device information and parameter data.
(2) Write a single register: function number 6 (0x06), used to change device
information, such as device address, device baud rate, etc., it will not be lost when
power off.

Register start address, number of registers:

(1) When reading a single parameter, the starting address of the register is the
register address of the parameter, and the number is 1. For example, when reading
humidity, the starting address of the register is 0x0002, and the number of registers is
0x0001.
(2) When reading multiple parameters, the starting address of the register is the first
register address among the multiple parameters, and the number of registers is the
number of registers occupied by all parameters. For example, when reading the
temperature and humidity, the starting address of the register is 0x0001, and the
number of registers is 0x0002.
Data area: specific communication data, note that the high byte of the 16bits data is in
front.
CRC code: 16-bit CRC check code, low byte first, high byte last.

7. Software usage
7.1 Instructions for connecting the device to the

computer
Users can use the "CUBERAYS environment monitoring" software provided by our company
or any serial debugging software.To communicate with the device. When communicating, it
should be noted that the device needs to be connected to the computer through USB to 485.
After the USB is inserted into the computer, you can view the COM port through
"My Computer - Properties - Device
Manager-Port".

Connect A and B of the device to A and B of the adapter module, supply power to the device,
open the software, select the correct serial port, baud rate and other serial communication
parameters. It should be noted that the data sent and received must be in hexadecimal.
transmission and display.

7.3 Common serial port assistant usage examples

Description: After selecting the communication parameters, "open the serial port", the
verification result is "low high", the displayed encoding format is "hexadecimal (HEX)", write
the command in the command box, right click and select "CRC-16 checksum" "Fill in the
verification code and click
"Send".
Description: Select communication parameters, open "HEX display", "time stamp and
sub-packet display", "HEX display"Send", "End", plus check "ModbusCRC16", enter the
command in the command box, and click
"Send".

Description: Open "Set Serial Port" to select communication parameters, "Open Serial Port".
Input 485 address, register start address, and the number of read registers in the 03H
command, click "Read", and the register value displays the read parameter value.

Enter the 485 address, the register address to be modified, and the modified content in the
06H command, and click "Send".
8. Common problems and solutions
The device cannot be connected to the PLC or computer, possible
reasons:

(1) The device is not powered normally, the voltage is too low or the voltage is unstable, which
will cause abnormal data.
(2) The computer has multiple COM ports, and the COM port selection is wrong.
(3) The selection of communication parameters such as baud rate, check mode, data bit, etc.
is wrong.
(4) The device address is wrong, or there is a device with a duplicate address (factory default
is 1).
(5) The host polling interval and waiting time for response are too short, and both need to be
set above 300ms.
(6) The RS485 wiring is disconnected, or the A and B wires are reversed.
(7) If the number of devices is too much or the wiring is too long, you should supply power
nearby, add a 485 booster, and at the same time increase a 120Ω terminal
terminal resistance.
(8) The USB to 485 driver is not installed or damaged.
(9) Equipment damage.
