Communication Protocol (Modbus RTU)

The transferred bytes are interpreted according to the Modbus specification


(http://www.modbus.org/). The sensor represents a Modbus slave here.

Data transfer takes place in packets known as frames, max. 256 bytes in size. Each
packet contains a 16bit CRC checksum (Initial value: 0xffff).

The following MODBUS functions are supported:


0x03 (Read Holding Registers).
0x06 (Write Holding Registers).

Communication parameters (factory default):

Baud rate: 9600bps, Data bits: 8, Stop bit: 1, Check bit: None
Slave address: the factory default is 1

Supported Bus Protocol

Baud rate: 1200, 2400, 9600, 19200


Parity: None
Stop Bit: 1

For setting the bus protocol parameter the sensor offers the function code 0x06 of
the MODBUS protocol. Alternative you can use the free software tool VT-300
configurator for setting the bus parameter and testing the communication.

The Sensors will start MODBUS operation 4 seconds after power up.
