Chapter 1 - Introduction

1.1 General

This document describes the registers addresses to use the Remote

Access functionality implemented in the current software release of both
UN1000-7 and UN1000-15 products.
The user is kindly asked to refer to the UN1000 User Manual when more
information than the included in this Manual is required.

1.1.1 References

[1.] UNITROL 1000-15 User's Manual, 3BHS262681 E80

[2.] UNITROL 1000-7 User's Manual, 3BHS266124 E80

1.1.2 Conventions

The basic data element, also called 'register' is 16bit wide.

The register addresses in this document are prefixed with 4 for 'holding
registers'. Register numbering starts with 1, but address on the bus start
with 0. The effective address seen in a Modbus telegram dealing with
'holding registers' is therefore:

address = register – 40'000 – 1

1.1.3 Access rights definition

NONE: Write – not possible

Read – read value will be “zero”

R: Read only no write access

R/W: Read / Write access to parameter

A key value (hex 0xACCE) must be written to this register in order to release the writing
access to Parameters and Signals registers (addresses 41000 to 42512). After writing the key
value, the writing access to Parameters and Signals is allowed during a certain amount of
time.

This register shows the current control status of the DSP. There are 3 states defined:
0x0 DSP is in local control (Default after start up)
0x1 DSP is controlled by CMT/PANEL
0x2 DSP is controlled by remote control
CMT/PANEL has the highest priority. If DSP is in REMOTE control and there is a CMT/PANEL
control request, control status is switch automatically. For more information, please consult

2.3.2.2 Signals for MODBUS communication Monitoring

There are signals available which can be used for debugging MODBUS communication on
RS232 and RS485 interface.
MB
Name Description
Addr
Good Frame Counter of REMOTE control request.

42157 MBrc_RecFrameGood This signal will be increased, when a valid MODBUS REMOTE control
request is detected. All requests are counted independent of the
connected interface (RS485 or RS232)

Good respond FRAME counter from REMOTE control.

42158 MBrc_FrameOut This signal will be incremented, when a valid MODBUS REMOTE control
Frame was transmitted.

Good Frame Counter on RS485 interface

This signal is incremented, with a valid reception of a MODBUS frame on

42173 RS485_frmCntrGood RS485.

Note: In case of VDC communication on RS485 this signal will be used to

count valid received VDC packages on RS485 interface.

Bad Frame Counter on RS485 interface

This signal is incremented, with every reception of a bad MODBUS frame

on RS485.

42174 RS485_frmCntrBad Note: A bad message is generated in following cases:

CRC-Error of received frame


Serial reception error on RS485 interface



In case of VDC communication on RS485 this signal will be used to



count invalid received VDC packages on RS485 interface.

Receive Frame Counter on RS485

42175 RS485_MB_frameIn
Signal is used to count every frame on RS485, including good/bad frames
and frames, which won’t be responded (request with wrong slave-ID).

Transmit Frame Counter on RS485

42176 RS485_MB_frameOut
Signal counts all valid MODBUS frames transmitted on RS485 interface.

Chapter 4 - Communication settings

4.1 Communication Settings

4.1.1 RS232 Interface

Modbus over the AVR's RS232 interface has fixed settings for communication; it is not
possible to change them. For additional information, please consult the User Manual.

Baudrate: 57.6kBaud
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bit: 1

4.1.2 RS485 Interface

Settings for MODBUS over the AVR's RS485 interface can be changed by the user.
They can be set either by using the CMT1000 (recommended) or by using the Panel.
For additional information, please consult the User Manual.

4.2 Basic requirements for Modbus over RS485

MODBUS over RS485 is an additional feature and requires that the corresponding
SW-Option is Enabled (possible by password and/or by the manufacturer).
MODBUS communication must be activated prior using it. This can be done using the
CMT1000 or the Panel (UN1000-15 only).
After changing any communication settings (Protocol, Frame, Baud Rate, Activity,…)
including the function activation, all parameters must be stored in the EEPROM ("Save
to EEPROM" command) and the device restarted afterwards (power supply Off and
On again). Only after the device is restarted the new settings can be active.

4.2.1 MODBUS Slave ID

The Modbus Slave IDs for communication using RS485 can be configured within the
range from 1 to 247; with the exception of the Slave ID used internally for the CMT1000
communication. The latter is shown in the Modbus settings window when using the
CMT1000 for configuration. For additional information please refer to the User Manual.

• After changing slave ID (by Panel or CMT) it has to be saved to EEPROM and
the unit must be restarted.
