Troubleshooting

Should you encounter problems communicating over
Modbus, the following items should be checked in this order:

1. Physical

Layer

2. Communications

Confi guration and Port Settings

3. Modbus Error Codes
4. Unit Status / Blocking / Lockout Codes

Physical Layer

1. Check that all components have power (Boiler, Gateway,
BAS

Master)

2. Check all wire lengths. Are any drops too long?
3. Check proper shield grounding
4. Check A, B terminal connections
5. Check for Terminating Resistors (120 ohms)
6. Check for broken wires

Communications

1. Check Dip Switch Confi guration of MTR-01 Board
2. Check Baud Rate (9600, 19200)
3. Check

Parity

4. Check Slave ID
5. Check Port Setting on Master, Gateway, and Computers

Modbus Error Codes

1. Check Modbus communication for error codes (see page

6 for Modbus Exception Codes)

2. Check

Modbus

PDU

3. Check Slave ID
4. Check

Modbus

Command

5. Check

Confi guration bits for Holding Register 40001

6. Check Commands and data for Holding Registers

40002 - 40007

Unit Status Codes

See Codes in this section

Boiler Status

The SYNC boiler displays a boiler state code on the Building
Screen to help aid in troubleshooting. The boiler state
indicates what the boiler is actually doing. This state should
be compared to the command issued and what is expected.
If the boiler state does not agree with the command issued,
check communication and confi guration.

Status Codes (Input Registers 30014 and 30023)

2 = Heat Demand blocked due to high absolute outlet
temperature
3

= Heat Demand blocked due to high absolute fl ue

temperature
4 = Heat Demand blocked due to high absolute Delta T

(Outlet - Inlet)

8 = Heat Demand blocked due to Low 24 VAC
9 = Outdoor shutdown
10 = Block due to switch OFF boiler (ON/OFF of Display)
12 = Block due to no correct communication Cascade
16 = Service function
19 = DHW function Storage Tank
21 = SH function Heat demand from Room Thermostat
22 = SH function Heat demand from Boiler Management
System
23 = SH function Heat demand from Cascade
30 = Heat demand activated by Freeze Protection
32 = DHW Pump Delay
33 = SH Pump Delay
34 = No heat function (after pump delay)
40 = Lockout
32764 = Busy with updating status
32765 = DHW blocked due to no present tank sensor
32766 = Burner control(s) manually shut down
32767 = Code not present

Blocking Codes (Input Registers 30015 and 30024)

0 = No blocking _> is divided into sub blockings
1 = SH blocking
2 = Blocking Due to Low 24 VAC Supply
3 = Blocking due to General block
4 = Blocking MRHL is open
5 = Blocking due to Switched OFF boiler (Display ENTER
switch)
6 = Blocking due to wrong communication of Cascade
7 = Blocking due to High Delta
8 = Blocking due to High Flue Temperature
9 = Blocking due to High Outlet Temperature
10 = Service blocking
12 = DHW blocking high outlet temperature (DHW confi gured

as storage tank)

13 = Blocking anti-cycling time
14 = Storage Tank demand Blocked due to Fan problems
15 = No system sensor connected and leader control present
16 = Limit fan speed due to high outlet temperature
17 = Fan min decreased due to low fl ame current
18 = Limit max fan speed due to high Delta T
19 = Limit max fan speed due to high fl ue temp
32767 = Code not present
