Operating Modes

Master: Processes data read from a Modbus RTU slave device (only one process variable at a time can be displayed on the master).
Master Proxy Polling: Polls up to 8 process variables up to 8 slave devices. The Master processes and displays one PV and allows other PD865s in Snooper mode to read any of the variables being polled.
Snooper: Listens to the Modbus traffic and picks up a specific process variable being polled by a Master device from a specific slave device and processes the data being read.
Slave: Processes data sent from a Modbus RTU master device.
Note that the relays and the 4-20 mA output are functional in all modes.

Master and Snooper Modes Settings

Function Code: Modbus function code 03 or 04.
Number of PVs: Number of process variables to be polled (PV1-PV8)
Slave ID: Address (1-247) of up to 8 slave devices
Register Number: 1 to 65536. Specifies which register(s) to read in the slave device. Register number is preceded by register type (3xxxxx or 4xxxxx). Five or six digit register number allowed.
Data Type: Select the data format that the slave device uses; select between Short (2 byte) and Long (4 byte) Integers or Floating point (4 byte), Signed or Unsigned (integer only), and byte order (big-endian vs little-endian).
Slave Response Timeout: 0 to 25.4 seconds.This is the time allowed for slave to respond to a command. 0 disables timeout (Master Mode Only)
Poll Time: 0.1 to 25.5 seconds between read commands
