2.4 ASSIGNING TEMPTRAC ADDRESS FOR MODBUS-RTU
The first step to interfacing a BAS (Building Automation Control) with a water heater or group of water heaters will be the
assignment of the address number for each heater.
1. Enter the Programming mode by pressing the Set and DOWN key for 3s.
(lead with the SET key)
2. Press the DOWN key.
3. Select “Pr2” – “PAS” parameter and press the “SET” key.
4. The value “0 - -” with a flashing zero is displayed.
5. Use UP or DOWN keys to input the Passkey in the flashing digit; confirm the figure by
pressing “SET”. The Passkey is “321“.
6. Once you have entered the Pr2 menu press the DOWN key three times and the
parameter Adr will appear on the screen as follows:
7. Now press the SET key once and the number will begin to blink. Use the arrow key to
set the address. Each TempTrac on a RS-485 network must have a different address
8. Each water heater should be assigned a different address in order for proper
communication to occur.
Note: The default for each TempTrac is Address #1. You can assign them to any number in the range of 1-247, this is the
limitations of the MODBUS RTU standard.
