MODBUS RTU supports the communication with the control systems Quad 2000 of Cooper turbo-compressors.
Configuration dialog box - tab "Protocol parameters".
They influence some optional parameters of the protocol. You can define the following parameters:
Table 1
| Keyword | Full name | Description | Unit | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Retry Count | The number of request retries when an error in communication occurs. | - | 2 | |
| Retry Timeout | The delay between request retries if an error in communication occurs. | ms | 100 ms | |
| Wait First Timeout | First waiting for a response after sending a request. | ms | 100 ms | |
| Wait Timeout | Delay between the readings of a response until it is completed. | ms | 100 ms | |
| Max Wait Retry | The number of response readings until it is completed. | - | 20 |
String with protocol parameters is written according to this rule:
Key_word=value;Key_word=value; ...
Example:
WT=100;MWR=20;
If a keyword with a valid value has not been found in the initial string, the default value is used according to Table 1.
I/O tags: Ai, Ao, Ci, Co, Di, Do
For the relation between D2000 Value Type and Modbus Data Type, the following table applies:
| Modbus Data Type | D2000 Value Type |
|---|---|
| Coil Status - 0x references | Do |
| Input Status - 1x references | Di |
| Input Registers - 3x references | Ai, Ci |
| Holding Registers - 4x references | Ao, Co |
The address is Modbus register number in the range of 0 to 65535.
For Ai and Ci points, a type of conversion to physical units must be defined. Conversion type RTD, 0-10V, 4-20mA, 1-5V, or none is specified in the documentation (see Literature). You can get more detailed information about the settings of channels directly by browsing the channel configuration on the Quad display. You can also get the limit values "Zero" and "Range" for the conversion of voltage or current inputs.
