Two flameproof conduit seals are required for each device in hazardous area installations.
NOTICE
Equipment approved for hazardous areas
Ensure that the equipment is approved for installation in hazardous areas.
2.3 System wiring

The device is slave in a 2-wire Modbus RTU RS 485 bus system. Terminal A on the device
must be connected to terminal A on the master/host system. Terminal B on the device must
be connected to terminal B on the master/host system. This corresponds to a half-duplex
communication where the slave will only reply to a request from the master.
This example shows an EMC shielded enclosure for multidrop installation. Cable shield must
be grounded at host system, in connection box, and at flowmeter to comply with EMC
requirements. Keep the cable shield to the ground as short as possible.

Topology
The device supports a two-wire electrical interface in accordance with EIA/TIA-485 standard.
An RS485 Modbus configuration without repeater has one trunk cable, along which devices
are connected, directly (daisy chaining) or by short branch cables.
Note
Multidrop examples in this document show a trunk cable with short branch cables.
Maximum cable lengths

The end to end length of the trunk cable must be limited. The maximum length depends on
the baud rate, the cable (gauge, capacitance or characteristic impedance), the number and
types of loads on the daisy chain, and the network configuration.
Note
Maximum branch cable length
Branch cables must be short, never more than 20 m.

4.6 Float transmission

The Float Byte Order function ensures that the master and slave use the same sequence of
the bytes when transmitting float values. This enables the user to configure the FCT030 and
operate the device with all types of PLCs without reprogramming the PLC. The transmission
order is configured by setting the parameter Byte Order in the submenu Device →
Communication.
Note
The command Restart Communication must be executed to activate the new byte order setting.
The table in chapter Float byte order (Page 39) shows the different options for setting the
transmission method.

Function code 8 (Diagnostics)

The diagnostics function provides means for checking the communication between MODBUS
master and slave. The function uses a sub-function code to select the functionality.
The following sub-function codes are supported:
Sub-function code Name Description

0 Return query data The data passed in the request data field will be returned (loo‐
ped back) in the response. The entire response message should
be identical to the request.
1 Restart communications option After having restarted the communication, select the baudrate,
framing or Modbus address to get access to the device again.
Function code 17 (Report Slave ID)

The transmitter will respond to a Report Slave ID request from the master by giving information
about device type, vendor, and firmware version in a format as shown:

4.9 Access control

Access control manages whether the Modbus master is allowed to modify device parameters.
Reading of parameters is always possible. The general access control rules are:
● The Modbus interface has an access level that can be changed by providing PIN information
via the Modbus register 8292 (User PIN) or 8293 (Expert PIN).
● Each parameter has a protection level assigned that specifies the required access level to
modify the parameter via the Modbus interface.
● If the access level of the Modbus interface is lower than the protection level of the parameter
that is desired to be modified, then the attempt to modify the parameter is rejected by the
device.

MODBUS commands
4.10 Modbus holding registers tables
If the device is defined as a custody transfer (CT) device and the CT write protection DIP switch
is ON (locked), the device will deny all writes to CT parameters independent of the access
control.
Table 4-7 Access control
Access level Description

Read only The Modbus master is not able to modify the device configuration (setup parameters).
The Modbus master is only able to execute the command, to reset PINs.
This is the default level of the Modbus interface.
User The Modbus master has to provide the correct user PIN with Modbus register 8292 to reach this access
level.
The Modbus master is able to modify a subset of the device configuration.
Expert The Modbus master has to provide the correct expert PIN with Modbus register 8293 to reach this
access level. The Modbus master is able to modify the configuration of the device.
If an incorrect user PIN or an incorrect expert PIN is entered, or if the device does not receive
any request within 10 minutes, the device resets the access level to read only.
4.10.1 Modbus holding registers tables (intro)

In the following the Modbus RTU holding registers available for SITRANS FST030 are
described.
Note
All Write parameters require password access.
Note
In case of error message "Check if the device is set to CT or SIL Operation mode", please
check for the following root causes:
- The device is set to CT mode
- The device is set to SIL mode
- The used Modbus register address is wrong

MODBUS commands
4.10.5.4 Zero point adjustment
In the following the automatic zero point adjustment function is described.
Note
Preconditions
Before a zero point adjustment is initiated, the pipe must be flushed, filled and at an absolute
flowrate of zero preferably also at operating pressure and temperature.
Note
Change of parameters during zero point adjustment
Do not change any other parameter during the zero point adjustment procedure.
Automatic zero point adjustment

The device measures and calculates the correct zero point automatically.
The automatic zero point adjustment of the flowmeter is set by the following parameters:
● Duration (Modbus address 2135)
● Start Zero Point Adjustment (Modbus address 2180)
When zero adjust is initiated by selecting Start Zero Point Adjustment, the massflow values
are acquired and totalized for the configured period (Duration). The default zero point
adjustment period (30 s.) is normally sufficient for a stable zero point measurement.
Note
Extremely low flow quantity
If the flow quantity is extremely small, extremely precise measurement is necessary. In this
case, a long zero point adjustment period can be selected for improved zero point adjustment.
Zero point calculation

During zero point adjustment, an average value is automatically calculated using the following
formula:
Zero Point Offset Value

Average of N flow values N xi is an instantaneous flow value sampled in
∑ xi the time domain
x≡ i =1 N = Number of samples during zero point ad‐
N justment

MODBUS commands
The offset value must be within the determined Zero Point Offset Limit (Modbus address 2140).
Note
Exceeded zero point offset limit
If the offset value is greater than the configured limit, proceed as follows:
● Check that the tube is completely filled and that the flowrate is absolute zero.
● Check the validity of the configured zero point offset limit.
● Repeat the zero point adjustment.
Zero point standard deviation

After completion of the procedure, the standard deviation is calculated in accordance with the
following formula:
Zero Point Standard Deviation

Standard deviation of N values N
∑ (x − x)
i =1
i
2
s≡
N −1
The standard deviation contains important feedback on the homogeneity of the fluid, for
example on the presence of bubbles or particles.
The standard deviation must be within the determined Standard Deviation Limit (Modbus
address 2138).
Note
Exceeded standard deviation limit
If the standard deviation is greater than the configured limit, proceed as follows:
● Check that the tube is completely filled and that the flow rate is absolute zero.
● Check that the installation is vibration-free.
● Check the validity of the configured standard deviation limit in parameter 2.6.4 Standard
Deviation Limit.
● Repeat the zero point adjustment.
Successful automatic zero point adjustment

If the new zero point offset value is valid, it is automatically stored as the new zero point for
the sensor. It remains stored in the case of a power failure.

MODBUS commands
Manual zero point adjustment

In case an automatic zero point adjustment cannot be performed, it is possible to do a manual
zero point adjustment by entering the zero point offset value.
1. Select Modbus address 2132 Zero Point Adjustment and set the value to 1 = Manual Zero
Point Adjustment.
2. Select Modbus address 2133 Manual Zero Point Offset and enter the desired offset value.

A.1 Definitions
Acyclic Data – data read over the acyclic communication channel, and this data could take
several bus scans to be read. The total amount of time that this process takes is random and
therefore acyclic.
Baud Rate – the speed of the network in bits per second.
Class 1 Master – a type of device on a PROFIBUS network and the traditional master in process
control systems. Refers to a Distributed Control System (DCS) or Programmable Logic
Controller (PLC).
Class 2 Master – a type of device on a PROFIBUS network and the traditional engineering
work station. An example of a class 2 master is SIMATIC PDM.
Cyclic Data – data that is read in every bus scan. It’s the input and output data used for control
and is time sensitive.
Deterministic – the knowledge that something is going to occur with a fixed time period. This
is a requirement of advanced control systems.
EDD – the Electronic Device Description is a collection of text files describing all the acyclic
data in a field device and how to read and write them. EDDs are used by configuration software
such as SIMATIC PDM to configure field instruments.
EDDL – Electronic Device Description Language is the language that EDDs are written in.
EDDL is an international standard defined in IEC 61804-2 and IEC 61804-3.
Ethernet – Ethernet is a type of physical layer defined in the IEEE 802.3 standard used for
communications in a local area network.
FDT – Field Device Tool is standard program interface (software) for configuring field devices.
FDT uses Device Type Managers to program field devices. FDT software is an alternative to
EDD based software such as SIMATIC PDM.
FDI – Field Device Integration is the evolution of FDT and EDD technology. It is for configuration
of field devices and is based on OPC-UA (Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control
– Unified Architecture) and EDD technology.
FF – Foundation Fieldbus is a digital protocol used to configure and troubleshoot field
instruments.
FISCO – Fieldbus Intrinsic Safe Concept. A standard that makes it easy to place FISCO
approved instruments into zone 0 and above environments.
FNICO – Fieldbus Non-Incendive Concept. A similar standard to FISCO. It is makes it easy to
place FISCO approved instruments into zone 2 environments.
Full-duplex – Full-duplex refers to a communication link that is bi-directional allowing for both
devices to talk and listen at the same time.
GSD – General System Data (or Generic Slave Description) is a text file in PROFIBUS and a
XML file in PROFINET defining all the protocol information and cyclic data of a field device. It
is used by the network configuration software to identify the slave and to set up the data

Definitions
A.1 Definitions
exchanged between the master and the slave during cyclic data exchange. GSD was also
originally the German acronym for Gerätestammdaten.
Gateway – A gateway is a device that joins two different networks together. For example, to
connect a Modbus device to a PROFIBUS network, a Profibus to Modbus gateway is needed.
HART – Highway Addressable Remote Transducer is an industrial protocol used to configure
and troubleshoot field instruments. It is often considered a transition between the 4–20mA
technology and full digital technology since it uses both.
IEC – International Electrical Congress is an international standards organization committed
to creating and maintaining international and open standards for use in the electrical industries.
I/O-Controller – A type of device on a PROFNET network and the traditional master in process
control systems. Refers to a Distributed Control System (DCS) or Programmable Logic
Controller (PLC).
I/O-Device – A type of device on PROFINET that provides input data or realizes output data
into the real world.
I/O-Supervisor – A type of device on a PROFINET network and the traditional engineering
work station. An example is SIMATIC PDM.
ISA – Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Society is a world wide organization that
develops standards, certifies industry professionals, provides education and training,
publishes books and technical articles, and hosts conferences and exhibitions.
Interchangeability – The ability to switch from one vendor’s device to another vendor’s similar
device. Interchangeability is a key benefit of PROFIBUS Profile standard.
Intrinsically Safe – An intrinsically safe device keeps the voltage and current low enough so
that it cannot generate a spark of sufficient energy to ignite the gas/particles in the atmosphere
making it safe for use.
Interoperability – The ability to connect different devices from different manufacturers on the
same network and have them work correctly. This is a core strength of PROFIBUS.
Managed Switch – A type of switch that provides additional advanced diagnostics.
Master – A type of device on PROFIBUS that controls communication to slave devices. One
PROFIBUS network can have several Masters on it, and they share communications by using
a token ring protocol.
MBP – Manchester encoded Bus Powered. This is the physical layer defined in IEC-61158-2
that is used for PROFIBUS PA
MBP-IS – This is the same physical layer as MBP, with the addition of power limiters on the
power supply so that the power draws will not exceed those defined for intrinsically safe
operation.
Modem – This is a device that translates a signal from one transmission technology to another.
For example an optical modem converts an electrical signal into light and then back again.
Physical Layer – Refers to medium used to get the ones and zeros from point A to point B.
This layer of the protocol is all about wires and voltage and current levels.
PROFIBUS – Process Fieldbus. Automation communication protocol designed to meet all
industrial and process communication needs.

Definitions
A.1 Definitions
PROFIBUS DP – DP stands for Decentralized Peripheral and was designed for remote input
output devices. This forms the core protocol of PROFIBUS. If PROFIBUS were a book, it would
be called PROFIBUS DP.
PROFidrive – A chapter in the PROFIBUS book or PROFINET book that adds functions to the
core protocol for high speed drive applications.
PROFIsafe – A chapter in the PROFIBUS book or PROFINET book that adds functions to the
core protocol for safety applications.
PROFIBUS PA – A chapter in the PROFIBUS book or PROFINET book that adds functions to
the core protocol for process control applications. PA refers to Process Automation.
PROFINET – A second book by the same authors as PROFIBUS. PROFINET is an Ethernet
based protocol that makes use of many sections of the PROFIBUS protocol and make optimal
use of Ethernet.
Profile – A profile is a standardization of a field device from the bus point of view. It defines the
output and the core device parameters.
Protocol – Refers to a set of rules. In industrial communications, it simply refers to a set of
rules defining how something is done. For example, how to get information from point A to
point B. Since one set of rules can be made up of many different sets of rules, one protocol
can be made up of different sub-protocols.
Proxy – A type of gateway defined in PROFINET which, aside from joining two networks
together, also defines how the date is set as well. Think of it as a very easy-to-use gateway.
Slave – A type of device on PROFIBUS that will only talk on the network after a Master device
has requested information.
Switch – A device that directs the traffic on an Ethernet network. It reads the incoming packet
and directs it to the correct port where the target device is located.
TCO – Total Cost of Ownership is a financial term used in asset management referring to all
the costs associated with ownership. In process automation, it is the sum of the cost of the
device plus the cost of commissioning plus the cost of maintaining the device.
Token Ring – A type of protocol using a virtual token that is passed from master to master.
The master can only talk on the bus when it has the token. When it is has finished talking on
the bus, the master passes the token onto another master.
