Float Flag

This flag specifies if the floating-point data access
functionality is to be implemented. If the float flag is
set to 1, Modbus functions 3, 6, and 16 will
interpret floating-point values for registers as
specified by the two following parameters.

10,043

Float Start

This parameter defines the first register of floating-
point data. All requests with register values greater
than or equal to this value will be considered
floating-point data requests. This parameter is only
used if the Float Flag is enabled.

10,044

Float Offset

This parameter defines the start register for
floating-point data in the internal database. This
parameter is only used if the Float Flag is enabled.

10,045

Protocol

This parameter specifies the Modbus protocol to be
used on the port. Valid protocols are: 0 = Modbus
RTU and 1 = Modbus ASCII.

10,046

Baud Rate

This is the baud rate to be used on the port. Enter
the baud rate as a value. For example, to select
19K baud, enter 19200. Valid entries are 110, 150,
300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 28800,
384 (for 38400 bps), 576 (for 57600 bps), and 115
(for 115,200 bps).

10,047

Parity

This is the parity code to be used for the port.
Values are None, Odd, Even.

10,048

Data Bits

This parameter sets the number of data bits for
each word used by the protocol. Valid entries for
this field are 5 through 8.

10,049

Stop Bits

This parameter sets the number of stop bits for
each data value sent. Valid entries are 1 and 2.

10,050

RTS On

This parameter sets the number of milliseconds to
delay after RTS is asserted before the data will be
transmitted. Valid values are in the range of 0 to
65535 milliseconds.

10,051

RTS Off

This parameter sets the number of milliseconds to
delay after the last byte of data is sent before the
RTS modem signal will be set low. Valid values are
in the range of 0 to 65535.

10,052

Minimum Response
Time

This parameter specifies the minimum number of
milliseconds to delay before responding to a
request message. This pre-send delay is applied
before the RTS on time. This may be required
when communicating with slow devices.

10,053

Use CTS Line

This parameter specifies if the CTS modem control
line is to be used. If the parameter is set to 0, the
CTS line will not be monitored. If the parameter is
set to 1, the CTS line will be monitored and must
be high before the module will send data. This
parameter is normally only required when half-
duplex modems are used for communication (2-
wire).
