6.2.5 FUNCTION CODE 07: READ DEVICE STATUS
Modbus Implementation: Read Exception Status
489 Implementation:
Read Device Status
This function reads the selected device status. A short message length allows for rapid reading of status. The returned sta-
tus byte has individual bits set to 1 or 0 depending on the slave device status. The 489 general status byte is shown below:
Note that if status is neither stopped or running, the generator is starting.
MESSAGE FORMAT AND EXAMPLE
Request status from slave 11.
6.2.6 FUNCTION CODE 08: LOOPBACK TEST
Modbus Implementation: Loopback Test
489 Implementation:
Loopback Test
This function is used to test the integrity of the communication link. The 489 will echo the request.
MESSAGE FORMAT AND EXAMPLE
Loopback test from slave 11.
