Modbus interface Installation Manual Do not connect the shielded wire of Uh Line communication cable to the earth. Set the RS-485 termination resistance on LINK(Uh) U3 and Modbus-Master the address1 unit (Modbus interface U4 have no polarity. (Locally procured) address SW1=1) and host system. Do not set it here.
Modbus interface Installation Manual Setting The following settings are necessary to use Modbus interface. • SW1 Sets the Modbus slave addresses of the Modbus interface. A single Modbus interface uses three Modbus slave addresses. (One address for the current interface and two addresses for potential interfaces.) When two or more Modbus interfaces are used for a single line RS-485 bus, set the addresses as indicated in the table below.
