Publication PUB091-003-00_0119
The Modbus card described in this manual contains static-sensitive devices. Suitable
precautions, such as wearing an earthed anti-static wrist strap, should be taken before
handling the card. The card should be kept in an anti-static bag or box while it is not fitted
within an actuator.
Note 1: The Modbus Modules described in this manual are suitable for inclusion in Rotork IQ Pro, IQT
Pro, ROMpak, SI Pro, EH Pro and Q range actuators. The Modbus Modules may also be fitted to
earlier versions of the IQ range of actuators.
Note 2: Although the same Modbus module is fitted to the different ranges of actuators, there will be
different numbers of valid inputs and outputs for each range, depending on the actuator capabilities.
For example, actuators not fitted with a battery cannot report Battery Low.
Note 3: The information in this manual relates to the following Modbus module firmware release -
M207 or newer.
Note 4: Throughout this manual the Modbus Module may simply be referred to as the module or MFU
(Modbus Field Unit – the circuit board fitted to the actuator in the field).
Note 5: Inputs are the status messages from the actuator and outputs are the command messages to
the actuator.
As we are continually developing our products their design is subject to change without notice.
