SEL-751A Relay
Modbus RTU Communications
Communications Protocol
shows the format of the relay responses to errors in the query.
7Eh NOP Command
This function code has no operation. This allows a Modbus master to perform
a control operation without any other Modbus command. This is only used
inside of the 7Dh when no regular Modbus query is required.
Reading Parameter
Information and Value
Using Modbus
Through use of Modbus commands, you can read the present value of a
parameter as well as parameter name, units, low limit, high limit, scale, and
even the enumeration string (if the parameter is an enumeration type). This
means that you can use a general user interface to retrieve and display specific
parameter details from the relay. Use the
60h
,
61h
, and
62h
commands to
retrieve parameter information, and use the
03
command to retrieve values.
Modifying Relay
Settings Using
Modbus
The SEL-751A does not provide password protection. It is assumed that
because the interface is a binary protocol with CRC-16 protection, the
interface is being handled by an intelligent master system. Therefore, the
master would provide password protection.
Any of the settings listed in the Modbus Register Map (
) can be
changed. The high and low limits provided in the table might cover a wider
range than what is acceptable by the particular model or configuration. The
settings are not saved as and when they are received. The relay acknowledges
the write operation, but it does not change the relay settings. The relay holds
these settings until there are no further edits for a time specified by
SETTINGS TIMEOUT register (4010h). After this timeout, the relay attempts
to save the settings. If there are no errors, the settings are saved. If, however, a
