Modbus Parameters
The MHTC uses the following parameters for communication:
Signaling Type
EIA-485
Transmission Mode
RTU
Baud Rate
9600 (cannot be changed)
Data Bits
8
Stop Bits
1
Parity
None
Address / Unit Number
1*
*Default, may vary for multi-unit orders.
It is important to note that the signaling type, transmission mode, baud rate, data bits and stop
bits cannot be modified. Parity and unit address can be modified as required.
The following points may be mapped for control:
