1.1 Abbreviations and conventions
Abbreviation Description
Baud, Baud rate Serial communication speed, in bits per second including start, parity and stop bits.
CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check, additional bytes used to confirm valid data transmission.
Ethernet IEEE 802.3, mostly referring to 10BASE-T RJ-45 connector present on board.
H Differential pressure, often called Head.
LED Light Emitting Diode.
Modbus A serial communication protocol used for device automation and remote access.
NMTC NMT pump Communication module.
Q Pump flow or flow rate.
RTU Remote Terminal Unit.
RS-485 Multi drop serial network wiring, used to transfer Modbus data.
For Modbus use, this manual assumes that the reader is familiar with commissioning and configuring of
Modbus devices. It is also assumed that an existing Modbus RTU network on RS-485 wiring with
Modbus master is present.
For Ethernet and web interface use, this manual assumes that the reader knows how to configure or
already has preconfigured Ethernet network.
For use of analog signals and relay output signals, external controller needs to be configured and used.
Proper operating mode must also be selected for the module.
