Introduction
This document contains the Modbus communication protocol which is used for all HRU-PremAIR series devices.
Properties
The control system uses the RTU Modbus protocol using the RS485 data
transmission standard. The communication module operates as a slave, and
information can be collected from the main module (master).
Information concerning the control panel connection is given below:
- Connection type: Modbus RTU Slave
- Standard address: 2
- Address for pairing: 207
- Transfer rate: 19200
- Transfer line: EVEN
- Data bits: 8
- Stop bit: 1
Pairing description
All register changes and readouts are made using address 207. In order to pair the BRDG-02R13 communication module, the recuperator should be switched to the binding mode. To do that, the recuperator should be powered off and on again, and it will be in the binding mode for 10 minutes. The following steps should be taken during that period:
For the given registers, the values should be:
- 43900 – 2
- 43901 – 1
Important!
After the first pairing made correctly, power off the recuperator, restart it
and wait for the data readout. The data should be read out when the fans start
up.
Each time the recuperator resets, the data will be read automatically.
Physical connection
The communication network is shown below. The control board may be connected
to RS485 to which more than one device is connected. Address conflicts on this
line should be eliminated and necessary software settings should be made in
order to ensure data communication.
If the line is too long or if there is any communication problem, install a
120 Ω resistor on both ends of the line, as shown in the diagram.
Modbus function
- The communication package is the same for each function. First, information concerning the address of the relevant module is sent in the package. After adding the information type, the CRC code is sent, being a failure code evaluating the package accuracy.
- The control board handles two of the standard Modbus functions.
- Those codes are: 03 register readout and 16 register write.
