2. Introduction
2.1 About this functional profile
This functional profile describes the following modules/units:
• CIM 200 Modbus RTU
• CIM 500 Modbus ethernet for Modbus TCP.
They are used for Modbus communication with the Smart Digital
Dosing pump, type DDA, referred to as ’DDA pump’ in the
following.
Grundfos cannot be held responsible for any problems caused
directly or indirectly by using information in this functional profile.
2.2 Assumptions
This functional profile assumes that the reader is familiar with the
commissioning and programming of Modbus devices. The reader
should also have some basic knowledge of the Modbus protocol
and technical specifications.
It is also assumed that an existing Modbus network with a
Modbus master is present.

application protocol on TCP/IP using either
CIM 260 3G/4G cellular or CIM 500 ethernet
as basis.
