Introduction
The SKS4 Modbus Communication Module User Guide provides information for using Neptronic®communication
feature. The controller uses Modbus communication protocol over serial line in the RTU mode and provides a Modbus
network interface between client devices and Neptronic SKS4 devices.
The SKS4 Modbus Guide assumes that you are familiar with Modbus terminology.
The following are the requirements for Modbus:
•Data Model. The SKS4 Steam to Steam Humidifier Modbus server data model uses only the Modbus
Registers table.
•Register Address:
oAs per protocol base (base 0); for PLC add 1 to protocol base.
oAs per holding register (base 400001).
Note: Ensure that the Modbus communication software used does not have a limit on the range of the
register addresses that can be viewed and supports 6-digit holding registers.
•Function Codes. The SKS4 Steam to Steam Humidifier Modbus server supports a limited function codes
subset comprising:
oRead Holding Registers (0x03)
oWrite Single Register (0x06)
oWrite Multiple Registers (0x10)
•Exception Responses. The SKS4 Steam to Steam Humidifier Modbus server supports the following exception
codes:
oIllegal data address
oIllegal data value
oSlave device busy
•Serial Line. The SKS4 Steam to Steam Humidifier Modbus over serial line uses RTU transmission mode over
a two-wire configuration RS485 (EIA/TIA-485 standard) physical layer.
oThe physical layer can use fixed baud rate selection or automatic baud rate detection (default) as
per the Modbus Auto Baud Rate device menu item or holding register index 1.
oThe supported baud rates are 9600, 19200, 38400, and 57600.
oThe physical layer also supports variable parity control and stop bit configuration as per the Modbus
Comport Config device menu item or holding register index 2.
oIn auto baud rate configuration, if the device detects only consecutive bad frames (2 or more) for
one second with any given baud rate, it will reinitialize itself to the next baud rate.
•Addressing. The SKS4 Steam to Steam Humidifier device only answers at the following address:
oThe device's unique address (1 to 246) that can be set through the device menu or through holding
register index 0.
