Protocols

Overview

The use of Modbus communication enables the PR300 to communicate with a
device such as a PC or PLC (sequencer). Such a device can be used in communica-
tion to read/write data from/to D registers which are internal registers of the PR300.

Hereafter, PCs are generically called “higher-level devices.”

Higher-level device

Maximum communication distance: 1200 m
Maximum number of slave stations to be connected: 31
