MR-LD6 Modbus RTU
The Modbus module with 6 analog inputs and 2 relay outputs was developed for decentralized switching tasks. Suitable to monitor electrodes of leakage sensors or the fill level of fluid containers and to switch pumps or magnetic valves. In this case it is necessary to protect the relay contacts by appropriate load-dependent measures. The resistance of the conductive fluid is measured when the electrodes are immersed. It is also possible to signal a cable break (requires sensor LKS-ZD). The module can be operated independently or via a Modbus master. Inputs and outputs can be switched and scanned via standard registers. Module address, bit rate and parity are set with two rotary switches on the front or by software. Suitable for decentralized mounting on DIN TH35 rail according to IEC 60715 in electrical distribution cabinets.

What can I do if the red ERROR LED on the module lights up or there is no communication?
There are several possible causes, please check the following:
- Operating voltage (A1 / A2) connected and sufficient for the device.
- BUS (A- / B+) connected and not reversed. Pay attention to (- / +), not to A/B.
- Address (rotary switch) set correctly, must not occur twice or be 0.
- Bit rate and parity (rotary switch) set correctly, only possible in programming mode (see mounting note).
- Shielded and twisted cable used.
- Termination resistor (120 Ω) set on both sides.
- Bias resistors available once on the BUS.
- Timeout high enough for all participants to respond (approx. 10 ms).
