Chapter 1 Serial Communication
Overview
Accura 3550 has a RS485 port on the rear side of meter for Master/Slave communication in the
field, and supports Modbus RTU protocol.
Modbus RTU protocol is a industry standard to efficiently transfer information of measuring and
control between master[PC or PLC] and slave[local devices, Accura 3300/3500/3550/7500].
Master/Slave Multi-drop
All communications on network conforms to a Master/Slave scheme.
Master will initiate and control all information on the communications loop.
Under no circumstances A Slave device initiate a communications sequence.
All communications occurs in the form of Packet, a packet being simply a serial string of 8-
bit bytes.
All Packets transmitted by the Master are requests. All Packets transmitted by a Slave are
responses.
At most one Slave can respond to a single request from a Master.
Modbus RTU Protocol
Industry standard protocol for general users.
Modbus RTU is recommended.
Designed according to Modicon Modbus RTU specifications.
Provides selective data communications by address map.
Most of automation programs provides the driver for Modbus RTU.
Page 12
Communication
The default serial communication setup of Accura 3550 is 8 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit
The RS485 communications allows multiple devices to be connected on the same bus. Up to 32
devices can be connected on a single RS485 bus, which consists of a shielded twisted pair cable
more than AWG 22[0.33mm2]. The overall length of the RS485 cable connecting all devices
cannot exceed 1.2km[ or 4000ft].
Fig 1.1 RS485 Multi-drop Connection Diagram
Warning
The above T bridge branched off in the middle of communication line- can not guarantee the
communication reliability by voltage-drop on the line.
To connect an RS485 communication bus to a computer or other RS232 equipped device, a
RS232 to RS485 converter is required. The communication between computer and Accura 3550 is
to connect the Pins, Ta, Tb of the Accura 3550 to the RS485 two lines, Data+, Data-, and
between computer and converter is connected one to one. The timing flow Between request packet
and response packet is followed.
Page 13
Fig 1.2 RS485 Communication Timing
Packet Recognition Time
The data packet between master[PC] and slave[devices] has the following format. One packet
consists of consecutive data frames, and frames is recognized as the same packet for the
condition where the distance between frames is within 5ms. At least 10ms is required to
distinguish each packet.
Fig 1.3 Packet Structure
Holding Time before transmitting Request Packet
After receiving the data from meter, at least 10ms[particulary 13msec in 57600bps] is required to
send a next request packet.

Chapter 3 Modbus RTU Protocol
Accura 3550 supports Modbus RTU.
Packet Field of Modbus RTU
Every modbus packet consists of four fields.
Slave Address Field
Function Field
Data Field
Error Check Field
Slave Address Field
The slave address field of a Modbus packet is one byte in length and uniquely identifies the slave
device involved in the transaction. Valid addresses range between 1 and 247. A slave device,
when receiving a request packet with the slave address field matching its own address, will
perform the command specified in the packet. A response packet generated by the slave will have
the same value in the slave address field.
Function Field
The function field of a Modbus resquest packet is one byte in length and tells the addressed slave
which function to perform. Similarly, the function field of a response packet tells the master what
function the addressed slave has just performed.
Function[Decimal]
Meaning
Description
03 Read Multiple register Obtains the current value from registers.
06 Write Single register Updates one single register to setup value
16 Write Multiple registers Updates more than a register to setup value
Data Field
The data field of a Modbus request is of variable length, and depends upon the function. This
field contains information required by the slave device to perform the command specified in a
request or data being passed back by the slave device in a response packet. Data in this field is
contained in 16-bit or 32-bit registers. Registers are transmitted in the order of high-order byte
first, low-order byte second. This ordering of bytes is called Big Endian format.
Page 18
Big Endian Example]]
High order byte = 3A hex
Low order byte = 12 hex
This register is transmitted in the order of 12AB
Error Check Field
The checksum field allows the receiving device to determine if a packet has been corrupted with
transmission errors. In Modbus RTU mode, 1 16-bit cyclic redundancy check[CRC-16] is used. The
sending device calculates a 16-bit value using the CRC-16 algorithm. The calculated value is
inserted in the error check field.
The receiving device performs the same calculation on the entire packet it receives, excepting the
error check field. If the calculated checksum is not equal to the checksum stored in the incoming
packet, transmission errors occurred and corrupted the packet. A bad packet will be ignored by
the receiving device. . See the Appendix A of this document for details of CRC-16 algorithm.

Exception Responses
If a Modbus master device sends an invalid command to Accura 3550 or attempts to read an
invalid holding register, an exception response will be generated. The high order bit of the
function code in an exception response is set to 1.
The data field of an exception response contains the exception error code.

Broadcast Packets
The purpose of a broadcast request packet is to allow all the slave devices to receive the same
command from the master. A broadcast request packet is the same as a normal request packet,
except the slave address field is set to zero.
Page 20
Packet Communications
this section illustrates the Modbus functions supported by the meter.
Function 03: Read Holding Registers
To read meter parameter values, a Master must send the slave device a Read Holding Registers
request packet. The Read Holding Registers request packet specifies a start register and a number
of registers to read.
Starting Address is a relative address according to register 40000[40001=0, 40002=1, 40101=
100, and etc.]. refer to Appendix B for CRC.
