The function of switch value acquisition and control of this module can support the acquisition of switch signal states such as button switches and proximity switches, and control electromagnetic

Valves, contactors, indicator lights, alarms, etc.

The analog acquisition function can be connected to various sensors with output specifications of 0~10V and 0~20ma, and the analog output can be used to control the inverter

Speed regulation, pneumatic control valve, etc.

4.2. MODBUS RTU communication function

The 485 interface of this module is A, B terminal and DB9 female head. As long as it supports standard MODBUS RTU master equipment (PLC,

Configuration, touch screen, host computer, etc.), the switch data of the control module can be collected by connecting the module 485 interface.

4.3. Modify the bus error mode

The bus error judgment function is mainly used to determine the status of all digital outputs of this module after a bus error occurs in the communication connected to this module.

Continue to hold when out of state, or reset to off state.

When the communication of the MODBUS RTU master station connected to the RS485 serial port of this module is normal, the bus communication is normal; when the MODBUS RTU

When the master fails to connect the module successfully and exceeds a certain period of time, the bus communication will judge that the bus error is reset.

Users can set the bus error mode (reset or hold), bus error judgment time

(threshold value), please refer to chapter 5.3.4 for specific operations.

4.4. Button reset function

When the module is powered on, press and hold the Reset button until the MODBUS-IO8R-A light flashes 6 times, then release the button, and then RUN

The light becomes fast flashing, and after the RUN light returns to slow flashing, power off the module for at least 3 seconds and then power on, the module will restore the factory parameters, as shown in the table below.

parameter name parameter default value

The baud rate of the serial port parameters is determined by the baud rate dial state, the parity bit is None, and the stop bit is 1 bit

Local address When the station address dial code is not all ON, it is determined by the station address dial state; when the dial code is all ON, the address is 32

The bus error mode is bus error hold, and the judgment time threshold is 200 (unit 10ms)

block communication, please follow the steps below to connect the configuration tool:

A. Open the configuration tool, select "MODBUS RTU-KEY" in the "Interface Model" column

B. Select the corresponding product category (host model), this host is I8-Q8-AI6-AO2

C. Fill in the module address (1~126), the module address is 1 when leaving the factory

D. Select the serial port number, that is, the port number of the USB to 485 serial cable connected to the module in the computer device manager

E. Select the baud rate, parity bit, data bit, and stop bit, which should be consistent with the current parameters of the module. Generally, there is no need to choose by default.

F. Click the start scanning button. After successful connection, the text of the button will change to stop scanning, and the color of the communication status icon on the right will change from black to

for red

5.2.3. Modify the local machine address

ÿ Set 1~32 station number

To modify the station number range from 1 to 32, you must adjust the state setting of the "station address" dial switch on the module. Note that when the module is powered on

When adjusting the dial status at any time, it is necessary to power off the module for at least 3 seconds, and then power on to take effect. The specific corresponding relationship is shown in the following table (the

There is a dial for OFF).

ÿ Set the station number from 33 to 126

The highest station number that can be set for this module is 126.

The station number is 32), and the station number between 33 and 126 can be set for the module through the debugging tool.

As shown in the figure below, after filling in the module address to be set in the "configure slave address" area, click on the same horizontal line on the right

Press the "Setting" button, then power off the module for at least 3 seconds and then power on, the newly set module address will take effect.

As shown in the figure below, in the "Mode Configuration" area, check the bus error reset or bus error hold according to the requirements, and

Fill in the value at the judgment bus error time threshold (200~6000, unit 10ms) (that is, access the module through the 485 serial port

If the MODBUS RTU master station has no successful connection with this module for more than this set value, it will be judged as a bus error), click

Press the "Setting" button, and the newly set bus error mode and judgment time will take effect.

ÿNote:

ÿWhen leaving the factory or pressing the button to reset, the mode is bus error reset, and the bus error judgment time threshold is 2s

ÿThe bus error judgment time threshold setting range is: 2s~60s, when the set value exceeds the range, it will be the bus hold

ÿThe bus error judgment time is the duration time, that is, when the module is connected again after no connection time exceeds the bus error time,

The judgment time starts from zero seconds when there is no connection next time.
