08/2010 Chapter 6 – Data Communication
© 2010 Schneider Electric. All rights reserved.
NOTE:
Most of the reserved and unavailable parameters return zero value.
The SCADA software must support register blocks consisting of different data types (integers
and floats) to transfer of whole block.
Each Modbus register size is 16 bits. All PM1200 readings are 32 bits. Therefore, each
PM1200 reading occupies two consecutive Modbus registers. For example, VA parameter
absolute address is 3901. It occupies both 3901 and 3902 Modbus registers.
Address configuration: All addresses are in decimal. Some SCADA software supports
Modbus register address instead of absolute register address. In this case add 40000 to the
above address and use it. For example, VA parameter absolute address is 3901. Modbus
address can be 43901 (40000+3901).
Phase Angle Block: Voltage phase angles (0,120,240) are hard coded (not measured).
Hence, these values are also available in communication in the absence of input signals;
however, these voltage phase angles are not available in the power meter display.
TURBO, and Percentage of Load Blocks: These parameters can be read individually or as a
block
TURBO block: 50 parameters maximum
Percentage of Load block: 5 parameters maximum
All power meters addresses should be set between 1 and 247.
All power meters should have uniform communication settings like Baud rate, parity and stop
bit.
Use Diagnostic mode display in the power meter to analyze the problem in communication.
Error: u – Invalid unit ID
A – Invalid Address
c – CRC error (cyclic redundancy checking)
t – Transmitting
r – Receiving
F – Invalid function code
o – Parity, framing or overrun error
O- Buffer overflow
