1. GENERAL
Instead of sending and receiving information to and from frequency converters through I/O, you can
connect them to a fieldbus.

Vacon NX frequency converters can be connected to the RS-485 bus using a fieldbus board. The con-
verter can then be controlled, monitored and programmed from the host system.

If you purchase your RS-485 Option Board separately, please note that it shall be installed in slot E on
the control board of the frequency converter.

Internal components and circuit boards are at high potential when the frequency
converter is connected to the power source. This voltage is extremely dangerous
and may cause death or severe injury if you come into contact with it.

3.3 Grounding
3.3.1 Grounding by clamping the cable to the converter frame
This manner of grounding is the most effective and especially recommended when the distances be-
tween the devices are relatively short or if the device is the last device on the net.

Note: Normally, the option board has already been installed in slot D or slot E of the control board. It
is not necessary to detach the whole board for the grounding of the bus cable shield. Just detach the
terminal block.

1 Strip about 5 cm of the cable and cut off the grey cable shield.
Remember to do this for both bus cables (except for the last device). See pictures below.

2 Leave no more than 1 cm of the cable outside the terminal block and strip the data cables at
about 0.5 cm to fit in the terminals. See pictures below.
Note: Do this for both bus cables.

3.3.2 Grounding only one point on the net

In this manner of grounding, the shield is connected to ground only at the last device on the net in the
same way as described in chapter 3.3.1. Other devices of the net just pass the shield.
We recommend you to use an Abico connector to fit the shields into the terminal.

1 Strip about 5 cm of the cable and cut off the grey cable shield. Remember to do this for both
bus cables (except for the last device).

2 Leave no more than 1 cm of the cable outside the terminal block and strip the data cables at
about 0.5 cm to fit in the terminals. See Figure 6.
Note: Do this for both bus cables.

3.3.3 Grounding jumper X1

The Grounding jumper X1 on the OPT-C8 is used for grounding selection. If position ON is selected it
means that the D-sub connector PIN1 is connected directly to ground. Selection of position OFF
means that PIN1 is connected to ground via an RC-filter. Jumper X1 has no effect on OPT-C2.

3.5 Bus Biasing

Bus biasing is required to ensure faultless communication between devices at RS-485 bus. Bus bias-
ing makes sure that the bus state is at proper potential when no device is transmitting. Without bias-
ing, faulty messages can be detected when the bus is in idle state. RS-485 bus state should be
neather +0,200..+7V or –0,200..-7V. Illegal bus state is <200mV..-200mV.

2-5 1.8 kohm
5-10 2.7 kohm
11-20 12 kohm
21-30 18 kohm
31-40 27 kohm

6. MODBUS
6.1 Modbus RTU protocol, introduction
The MODBUS protocol is an industrial communications and distributed control system to integrate
PLCs, computers, terminals, and other monitoring, sensing, and control devices. MODBUS is a Mas-
ter-Slave communications protocol. The Master controls all serial activity by selectively polling one or
more slave devices. The protocol provides for one master device and up to 247 slave devices on a
common line. Each device is assigned an address to distinguish it from all other connected devices.

The MODBUS protocol uses the master-slave technique, in which only one device (the master) can
initiate a transaction. The other devices (the slaves) respond by supplying the request data to the
master, or by taking the action requested in the query. The master can address individual slaves or
initiate a broadcast message to all slaves. Slaves return a message (‘response’) to queries that are
addressed to them individually. Responses are not returned to broadcast queries from the master.

A transaction comprises a single query and single response frame or a single broadcast frame. The
transaction frames are defined below.

DATA DATA

CRC CRC
END END

Figure 13. The basic structure of a Modbus frame

Valid slave device addresses are in the range of 0 ... 247 decimal. The individual slave devices are as-
signed addresses in the range of 1 ... 247. A master addresses a slave by placing the slave address in
the address field of the message. When the slave sends its response, it places its own address in this
address field of the response to let the master know which slave is responding.

The function code field of a message frame contains two characters (ASCII) or eight bits (RTU). Valid
codes are in the range of 1 ... 255 decimal. When a message is sent from a master to a slave device
the function code field tells the slave what kind of action to perform. Examples are to read the ON /
OFF states of a group of discrete coils or inputs; to read the data contents of a group of registers; to

 20 • vacon modbus

read the diagnostic status of the slave; to write to designated coils or registers; or to allow loading,
recording, or verifying the program within the slave.

When the slave responds to the master, it uses the function code field to indicate either a normal (er-
ror-free) response or that some kind of error occurred (called an exception response). For a normal
response, the slave simply echoes the original function code. For an exception response, the slave
returns a code that is equivalent to the original function code with its most significant bit set to a logic
1.

The data field is constructed using sets of two hexadecimal digits, in the range of 00 to FF hexadeci-
mal. These can be made from a pair of ASCII characters, or from one RTU character, according to the
network's serial transmission mode.

The data field of messages sent from a master to slave devices contains additional information which
the slave must use to take the action defined by the function code. This can include items like discrete
and register addresses, the quantity of items to be handled, and the count of actual data bytes in the
field.
If no error occurs, the data field of a response from a slave to a master contains the data requested. If
an error occurs, the field contains an exception code that the master application can use to determine
the next action to be taken.

Two kinds of checksum are used for standard Modbus networks. The error checking field contents
depend upon the transmission method that is being used.

6.2 Modbus interface

Features of the Modbus-Vacon NX interface:
• Direct control of Vacon NX ( e.g. Run, Stop, Direction, Speed reference, Fault reset)
• Full access to all Vacon NX parameters
• Monitor Vacon NX status (e.g. Output frequency, Output current, Fault code)

6.2.1 Modbus registers

The Vacon variables and fault codes as well as the parameters can be read and written from Modbus.
The parameter addresses are determined in the application. Every parameter and actual value have
been given an ID number in the application. The ID numbering of the parameter as well as the pa-
rameter ranges and steps can be found in the application manual in question. The parameter value
shall be given without decimals. If several parameters/actual values are read with one message, the
adresses of the parameters/actual values must be consecutive.

All values can be read with function codes 3 and 4 (all registers are 3X and 4X reference). Modbus
registers are mapped to drive ID’s as follows:

ID Modbus register Group R/W

1 … 98 40001…40098 (30001…30098) Actual Values 30/1
99 40099 (30099) Fault Code 30/1
101… 1999 40101…41999 (30101…31999) Parameters 30/1
2001…2099 42001…42099 (32001…32099) Process Data In 20/20
2101…2199 42101…42199 (32101…32199) Process Data Out 20/20
Table 9. Index table

6.2.2 Process data

The process data fields are used to control the drive (e.g. Run, Stop , Reference, Fault Reset) and to
quickly read actual values (e.g. Output frequency, Output current, Fault code). The fields are struc-
tured as follows:

The use of process data depends on the application. In a typical situation, the device is started and
stopped with the ControlWord (CW) written by the Master and the Rotating speed is set with Refer-
ence (REF). With PD1…PD8 the device can be given other reference values (e.g. Torque reference).
With the StatusWord (SW) read by the Master, the status of the device can be seen. Actual Value (ACT)
and PD1…PD8 show the other actual values.

6.2.3 Process data in

7. METASYS N2
7.1 Metasys N2 Protocol Introduction
The N2 communications protocol is used by Johnson Controls and others to connect terminal unit
controllers to supervisory controllers. It is open to any manufacturer and based upon a simple ASCII
protocol widely used in the process control industry.

The physical characteristics of the N2 bus are three wire RS-485 with a maximum of 100 devices over
a 4,000 foot distance running at 9,600 bps. Logically, the N2 is a master-slave protocol, the supervi-
sory controller normally being the master. Data is partitioned into common HVAC control objects,
such as analogue input, analogue output, binary input and binary output. N2 messaging supports the
reading, writing and overriding of these points. Additionally, there are messages defined to perform
uploads and downloads of devices as well as direct memory reads and writes.

7.2 Metasys N2 interface

Features of the N2 Interface:
• Direct control of Drive ( e.g. Run, Stop, Direction, Speed reference, Fault reset)
• Full access to necessary parameters
• Monitor Drive status (e.g. Output frequency, Output current, Fault code )
• In standalone operation, or should the polling stop, the overridden values are released after a
specified period (about 10 minutes).

7.2.1 Analogue Input (AI)

All Analogue Input (AI) points have the following features:
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on high and low warning limits.
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on high and low alarm limits.
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on override status.
• Always considered reliable and never out of range.
• Writing of alarm and warning limit values beyond the range that can be held by the drive’s in-
ternal variable will result in having that limit replaced by the “Invalid Float” value even though
the message is acknowledged. The net result will be the inactivation of the alarm or warning
(the same as if the original out of range value was used).
• Overriding is supported from the standpoint that the “Override Active” bit will be set and the
value reported to the N2 network will be the overridden value. However, the value in the drive
remains unchanged. Therefore, the N2 system should be set up to disallow overriding AI
points or have an alarm condition activated when an AI point is overridden.
• Overriding an AI point with a value beyond the limit allowed by the drive’s internal variable will
result in an “Invalid Data” error response and the override status and value will remain un-
changed.

7.2.2 Binary Input (BI)

All Binary Input (BI) points have the following features:
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on current state.
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on alarm condition.
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on override status.
• Always considered reliable.

Overriding is supported from the standpoint that the “Override Active” bit will be set and the value re-
ported to the N2 network will be the overridden value. However, the value in the drive remains un-

metasys n2 vacon • 35

changed. Therefore, the N2 system should be set up to disallow overriding BI points or have an alarm
condition activated when a BI point is overridden.

7.2.3 Analogue Output (AO)

All Analogue Output (AO) points have the following features:
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on override status.
• Always considered reliable.
• Overriding of the AO points is the method used to change a value. Overriding an AO point with
a value beyond the limit allowed by the drive’s internal variable will result in an ”Invalid Data”
error response and the override status and value will remain unchanged. If the overridden
value is beyond the drive’s parameter limit but within the range that will fit in the variable, an
acknowledge response is given and the value will be internally clamped to its limit.
• An AO point override copies the override value to the corresponding drive parameter. This is
the same as changing the value on the keypad. The value is non-volatile and will remain in ef-
fect when the drive is turned off and back on. It also remains at this value when the N2 net-
work "releases" the point. The N2 system always reads the current parameter value.

Note:
On some N2 systems, the system will not poll the AO point when it is being overridden. In this case,
the N2 system will not notice a change in value if the change is made with the keypad. To avoid this,
set the point up as a ”local control” type and release it once it has been overridden. In this way, the N2
system will monitor the value when not being overridden.

7.2.4 Binary Output (BO)

All Binary Output (BO) points have the follwoing features:
• Support Change of State (COS) reporting based on override status.
• Always considered reliable.
• Overriding BO points control the drive. These points are input commands to the drive. When
released, the drive's internal value remains at its last overridden value.

7.2.5 Internal Integer (ADI)

All Internal Integer (ADI) points have the follwoing features:
• Do not support Change of State (COS) reporting.
• Can be overridden and the ”Override Active” bit will be set. However, the Internal value is un-
changed (Read Only).
