declassification of the area would be required. See section 5.4-f) for details on changing the RS-485 ID
number.
The following section explains the details of the Modbus™ protocol that the MicroSafeTM sensor supports.
Code 03 - Read Holding Registers is the only code supported by the transmitter. Each transmitter contains 6
holding registers which reflect its current status.
Register # High Byte Low Byte
0000 Gas type Sensor Life
Gas type is one of the following:
01=CO, 02=H2S, 03=SO2, 04=H2, 05=HCN, 06=CL2, 07=NO2, 08=NO, 09=HCL, 10=NH3, 11=LEL,
12=O2
Sensor life is an estimated remaining use of the sensor head, between 0% and 100% Example: 85=85% sensor

Register # High Byte Low Byte
40001 Detectable Range
i.e. 100 for 0-100 ppm, 50 for 0-50 ppm, etc.
Register # High Byte Low Byte
40002 Current Gas Reading
The current gas reading as a whole number. If the reading is displayed as 23.5 on the display, this register
would contain the number 235.
Register # High Byte Low Byte
40003 Alarm 1 Set point
This is the trip point for the first alarm.
Register # High Byte Low Byte
40004 Alarm 2 Set point
