with manual control facility
MR-DOA4
110836132101
without manual control facility
1. Description
The Modbus modules with 4 digital outputs are designed for
local switching operations. They are suitable to operate electrical
components such as motors, contactors, lamps, sun-blinds etc.
We recommend to protect the relay contacts additionally by a
RC-element for high inductive loads. MR-DO4 is equipped with a
manual control facility for manual switching of the relays.
MR-DOA4 has no manual control facility.
The outputs can be operated via a Modbus-Master. Setting of the
slave address, bit rate and parity is done with the two address
switches (x1 / x10) on the front. Possible settings are addresses 00
to 99 and bit rates 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600
und 115200 Bd.
The device does not participate in bus communication if the
address is 00 (reserved for broadcast commands).

Continuation Description
Communication with the master can be monitored with a watch-
dog timer. If master or communication fail the outputs are swit-
ched to their basic state (secure state) and the red LED is lighting.
The timer restarts with each valid message addressed to the device.
When defining the time constant it is necessary to take account of
the baud rate, the number of slaves on the bus and the length of
the messages per slave.
