 MODBUS PROTOCOL RTU

The MODBUS-RTU protocol enables reading and writing of registers present in LAUMAS
instruments, based on the standard addressing system provided in the reference guide of Modicon
PI-MBUS-300.

SPECIAL WARNINGS

Not all commands present in the aforementioned document are implemented for communication
with the instruments. All limitations will be specified later.

Pay close attention to the values sent to the instrument: they must fall within the ranges specified in
the tables on the following pages (and they must guarantee proper functioning of the instrument).

Some data will be written directly into a special memory named EEprom, which can be written a
limited number of times only (100000). Therefore avoid writing continuously in these locations
Numerical values are expressed as decimal values in the following pages; in case of 0x prefix
values are expressed as hexadecimal

DATA FORMAT

- 1 start bit;
- 8 data bits, least significant bit;
- no parity, odd or even parity.
- 2 stop bits in case of no parity (n-8-2)
- 1 stop bit in case of checking parity (O-8-1, E-8-1)

SUPPORTED FUNCTIONS

Among the commands available in the MODBUS-RTU protocol, only the following are used to
manage communication with the instruments. Other commands may not be interpreted correctly and
could generate errors or system shut-downs:

 INSTRUMENT RESPONSE TIMES

The length of time that elapses between the end of the QUESTION string to the instrument and the
start of the ANSWER string from the instrument varies between 5 msecs and 20 msecs (max).
The length of time that must elapse between the end of the ANSWER string from the instrument and
the start of the next QUESTION string to the instrument is 0.5 msec (min).
In order to take into consideration the total time of a communication (QUESTION + ANSWER), the
transmission times for the strings, which must be calculated according to the baud rate used, must
be added to these.

Example with 19200bit/sec BAUD RATE:

a) 8 bytes QUERY (88 bits) = 4,6 msec

b) max delay for response = 20 msec
c) 8 bytes RESPONSE (88 bits) = 4,6 msec
d) time before the next query = 0,5 msec

total = 30 mS (33 communications / second)

In general, a longer length of time must be considered to correctly handle the query loop.
Some systems are very slow at correctly handling communication timing, resulting in a
decrease in the number of queries possible in the unit of time.

Where present, the DELAY parameter allows the instrument to respond to the system that is
questioning it with a certain delay. This directly influences the number of queries possible in the unit
of time.

- The serial settings cannot be modified via the serial port itself. Operate manually using the
instrument menus.
- Modifications made will be active after switching off and on again. Modifications such as the
delay time (‘Delay’) and the instrument’s address (‘Address’), however, are active
immediately.

 The 40009 and 40114 registers are equal. The 40012 and 40115 registers are equal.
 The batching start command takes into consideration the formula number and the number of
current cycles. If a formula analogue selector is connected, you can batch a different formula to
the one currently selected by writing all at once the registers 40114, 40115 and 40116.

“Command Register” allows the following commands:

Function command
0008 Semiautomatic zero
0011 Product zero-setting (if “0” is set all products will be reset)
0012 Reading batched net weights
0013 Batched net weight acquisition – communication received
0014 Start the batching
0015 Stop the batching
0016 ENTER key
0017 ESC key

 0018 Start the batching after “tare” alarm
0021 Keyboard lock
0022 Keyboard unlock

Note:
 Registers from 40022 to 40027 refers to the formula into the 40067 register.
 Programming a formula: write the formula’s number that you want to program into the register
40067, then write the batching sets to the relevant registers.
 Reading a formula: write the formula’s number into the register 40067, the relevant registers will
be updated.
 The 40009 and 40064 registers are equal. The 40012 and 40065 registers are equal.
 The batching start command takes into consideration the formula number and the number of
current cycles. If a formula analogue selector is connected, you can batch a different formula to
the one currently selected by writing all at once the registers 40064, 40065 and 40066.
 The batched net weights are updated following receipt of the reading command (function 0012)
which must take place while the unloading phase is active.

 CHARACTERS OF INSTRUMENT STATUS
( for WT60000 BATCHING – LOAD – UNLOAD )

" " ( - space - 32 ASCII ) : if the instrument is in standby condition

" P " ( 80 ASCII ) : in case of programming the current data
" O " ( 79 ASCII ) : in case of “CAPAC” or “o-F” alarms
" F " ( 70 ASCII ) : in case of “no Conn” error message
" E " ( 69 ASCII ) : failing product during the batching
" D " ( 68 ASCII ) : during the batching phase
" M " ( 77ASCII ) : weight error at the start of batching ( tArA ), only for LOAD and BATCHING
programs
" C " ( 67 ASCII ) : in case of approval waiting ( - ConS ), only for BATCHING and UNLOAD programs
" S " ( 83 ASCII ) : cycle end.
" T " ( 84 ASCII ) : in case of error of out of tolerance
" B " ( 66 ASCII ) : in case of black-out the starting ( BLACK-oUt )
" V " ( 86 ASCII ) : in case of start with empty formula ( FVUoTA )
" H " ( 72 ASCII ) : in pause condition ( PAUSE )
" X " ( 88 ASCII ) : getting over of the maximum weight during the batching ( MASS ), only for the
LOAD and BATCHING programs
" A " ( 65 ASCII ) : setting of the formula beyond the maximum weight ( FF-SC )
“ K “ ( 75 ASCII ) : the weight does not decrease (message error)
" R " ( 82 ASCII ) : product not sufficient for the unloading ( Prod ?? ) only for UNLOAD program
" Z " ( 90 ASCII ) : waiting of the batching re-start after the load of the big bags, only for UNLOAD
program.
“ U “ ( 85 ASII ) : in case of forcing the “tArA” alarm when the the sum of the weight in the container
and the quantity to batch is higher than max. weight (“FF-SC”).
“ N “ ( 78 ASCII): error at start batching, in case the fall value is higher than the quantity to batch (“Err
Volo”).
