Slave Address – 00 for TCP. RTU is slave address. Example: 02
Slave ID - The Slave ID number for the HC930 is 93 (hex); for the HC950 it is 95 (hex) (one byte) (byte
3)
Run Indicator Status - (one byte) (byte 4). 00=OFF; FF=ON
Device Description - (bytes 5-20)- 16 Character ASCII Message with the following format:
‘H’ ‘C’ ‘9’ ‘5’
or
‘3’
‘0’ ‘’ ‘‘ up to 9 character version number in
floating point notation.
zeros are appended for
the remaining bytes
For example, an HC950 with version number 2.000 would have the following device description:
‘H’ ‘C’ ‘9’ ‘5’ ‘0’ ‘’ ‘‘ ‘2’ ‘.’ ‘0’ ‘0’ ‘0’ 0 0 0 0
