4.2 Module parameters

After the node address, baud rate and data format of the M-3001 module are set by the software and the DIP switch,

It is automatically configured at power-on, no software configuration is required.

The M-3001 module defines the timeout time parameter to control the communication timeout alarm function. The parameter mapping

To the holding register 30016 (upper 16 bits) and holding register 30017 (lower 16 bits), this parameter is passed

The function code No. 16 is written into the internal EEPROM of the module, and this parameter is automatically loaded when the power is turned

The timeout time parameter is a 32-bit unsigned integer, the unit is ms, and the parameter range is 0x0000000A～

0x000493E0 corresponds to 10～300000ms, such as 0x00002710 means 10000ms. If you don't need to start

Use the timeout function to set the value to 0x00000000.

The communication setting parameters are mapped to the holding register 30018 and holding register 30019, which determine the communica

The mode is software setting or hardware DIP switch setting. If it is software setting mode, the node address, wave

The special rate and data format use the values ​in the holding registers 30018 and 30019 as the communication setting values.

6 Application Guide

The M-3001 module is an IO module based on the RS485 bus. When the M-3001 module is networked, it needs to be equipped with the follow

Prepare:

1) Modbus host, such as PC, PLC, industrial computer, etc.;

2) DC power supply (12～40V), such as 12V or 24V power supply;

3) If the Modbus host has only RS232 interface, it must be equipped with an isolated RS232/RS485 converter.

As shown in the figure below, take a PC with RS485 interface as the Modbus master as an example
