1.6 EXCEPTION RESPONSES – ERROR CONDITIONS
The MODBUS RTU protocol checks the CRC in the data blocks received. Reception
errors are detected by the CRC, causing the controller to discard the packet, not
sending any reply to the master. After receiving an error-free packet, the controller
processes the packet and verifies whether the request is valid or not, sending back an
exception error code in case of an invalid request. Response frames containing error
codes have the most significant bit of the Modbus command set.
If a WRITE command sends an out-of-range value to a parameter, the controller will
clamp the value to the parameter range limits, replying with a value that reflects these
limits (maximum or minimum value allowed for the parameter).
The controller ignores broadcast READ commands; the controller processes only
broadcast WRITE commands.
Error Code

01
Invalid Command or inexistent
