5.1. MODBUS-RTU transmission format
MODBUS-RTU sends and receives binary data without a frame-synchronizing start code and de-
fines the blank time to recognize the start of a frame. MODBUS-RTU decides the data that is first
received subsequently as the first byte of a frame after a blank time for 3.5 bytes at the on-going
communication speed.

1) Inverter No.. (1 byte) : Specify an inverter number between 0 and 247 (00H to F7H).
Command processing will be executed only broadcast communication “0” and with
those inverters that match set inverter numbers. Data will not be returned if “0”
(broadcast communication) and inverter numbers do not match.
2) Command (1 byte) : Set the read command (03H fixed).
3) Communication No.. (2 bytes) : Set in the order of high to low numbers.
4) Number of data groups (2 bytes) : Set the number of data words 0001 (fixed) in the order of high to low numbers.
5) CRC (2 bytes) : Set generation results of CRC in the order of low to high numbers.. For the
method to generate CRC, see “5.2 CRC Generation.” Note that the setting se-
quence is reversal to that of others.

1) Command (1 byte) : Read command (03H fixed) will be returned.
2) Number of data : A number of data bytes (02H fixed) will be returned. The number of data groups for
transmission to the inverters is 2 bytes and 01H fixed. Note that the number of data re-
turned by the inverters is 1 byte and 02H fixed.
3) Read data (2 bytes) : Returned in the order of read data (high) and (low).
