CONFIGURATION AND MEASUREMENT 

The configuration of the instrument and the reading of the measurements can be done 
via the RS485 serial output, both with the proprietary protocol and with the MODBUS-
RTU protocol. 

In the first 10 seconds after the instrument power on, it is always active the proprie-
tary  protocol.  After  10  seconds  from  power  on,  the  operating  protocol  is  activated, 
which by default is the MODBUS-RTU protocol. 

It is possible to keep the proprietary protocol active even after 10 seconds from power on 
by sending,  before  the 10 seconds expire,  the  command 

@

 of  the proprietary protocol. 

The proprietary protocol can be set as operating protocol by means of the DP0 command. 

By  default,  the  instrument  has  MODBUS  address 

1

  and  communication  parameters 

19200,  8E1.  Different  parameters  can  be  set  using  the  proprietary  protocol  or  the 
MODBUS-RTU protocol. 

The commands of the proprietary protocol and the registers of the MODBUS-RTU pro-
tocol are described in detail in the following chapters. 

Analog output: 

The  output  is  current  or  voltage  depending  on  the  configuration  of  the  IOUT  /  VOUT 
jumper on the board. By default, the current output is 4...20 mA and the voltage out-
put is 0...1, 0...5 V or 0...10 V depending on the model. 

The analog output is preset to correspond to the pressure range 600…1100 hPa. 

Using the proprietary protocol or the MODBUS-RTU protocol it is possible: 

 

to  associate  the  analog  output  to  a  different  pressure  range,  within  the  full 
measuring range; 

 

to add/remove an offset to the output minimum value (e.g., change from 0…10 V 
to 2…10 V or from 4…20 mA to 0…20 mA); 

 

to reverse the direction of the output, so that the output decreases as the meas-
urement increases. 

In the event of a measurement error, the output goes to a value 10% higher than the 
full scale (e.g., 11 V if the output is 0...10 V or 22 mA if the output is current). 

Status of the transmitter: 

The transmitter version with LCD option has two front LEDs: the 

green

 LED indicates 

the presence of the external power supply (blinks once per second), the 

red

 LED indi-

cates the presence of any measurement errors (normally off, it blinks twice per sec-
ond if in error).
