2 A Few Facts about the Modbus Protocol on HYDROVAR HVL
NOTE: The Modbus Protocol is an international standardized Bus Protocol!
The general information within this Manual is just a brief overview, for detailed
information please use the Modbus Protocol reference guide, or any other source of
information (e.g. Modbus org. “MODBUS application protocol specification” available
on the Internet).

This protocol defines a message structure that controllers will recognize and use, regardless of the
type of networks over which they communicate. It describes the process a controller uses to
request access to another device, how it will respond to requests from the other devices, and how
errors will be detected and reported. It establishes a common format for the layout and contents of
message fields.

During communications on a Modbus network, the protocol determines how each controller will
know its device address, recognize a message addressed to it, determine the kind of action to be
taken, and extract any data or other information contained in the message.

2.1 Communication

HYDROVAR HVL uses the RS485 serial interface that defines connect pinouts, cabling, signal
levels, transmission baud rates and parity checking.

Controllers communicate using a master-slave technique, in which only the master can start a
transfer or polling. The other devices (Slaves) respond by supplying the requested data to the
master, or by taking the action requested in the query.

2.2 Broadcasting

On HYDROVAR HVL broadcast function is not supported.

2.3 Data Protection

Standard Modbus serial networks use two kinds of error checking:

- Parity checking (even of odd) can be optionally applied to each character.
- Frame checking (LRC or CRC) is applied to the entire message.

Both the character check and message frame check are generated in the master device and
applied to the message contents before transmission. The slave device checks each character
and the entire message frame during receipt.

Detailed information can be found in the Modbus Protocol Reference Guide!

3
2.4 Transmission Mode

When using the Modbus Protocol the selection to choose is between two transmission Modes:
ASCII or RTU.
The different modes determine how information will be packed into the message fields and
decoded.

In addition to the desired transmission mode, the serial port communication parameters (baud
rate, parity mode…) shall be selected.

! The mode and serial parameters must be the same for all devices on the Modbus network!

The following modes can be selected and are supported by HYDROVAR HVL:

RTU / 8, E, 1 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, Even parity

RTU / 8, O, 1 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, Odd parity
RTU / 8, N, 2 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits, No parity
RTU / 8, N, 1 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, No parity

ASCII / 7, N, 2 1 start bit, 7 data bits, 2 stop bits, No parity

ASCII / 7, E, 1 1 start bit, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit, Even parity
ASCII / 7, O, 1 1 start bit, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit, Odd parity

3.1 Single HVL connected to an External Device

NOTE: For detailed information regarding installation, wiring and configuration of the
HYDROVAR HVL, please read and follow the relative Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Manual

WARNING: This product is intended to be operated by qualified personnel only.

Unscrew the dedicated 6 screws and remove the plastic cover of HYDROVAR HVL, in order to
proceed wiring the control terminals; for reference, the wiring harness scheme is reported on the
backside of the plastic cover too.

 Figure 2
Terminals X1/24, X1/25 and X1/26 are used for the communication with an external-control-device
(e.g. PLC, BMS or a PC too); a dedicated termination resistor switch (BUS2, see image below) is
made available to add a parallel terminator resistor to this RS485 port: if the resistor is needed put
BUS2 switch on ON position.

NOTE: Do not connect the ground of the control card to other voltage potentials. All
ground terminals and ground of the RS485 connection are connected internally.

For connecting HYDROVAR HVL to a PC, is it possible to simply refer to the provided
“USB/RS485 Cable Kit M&C” (cod.109395920), which integrates a USB/RS485 converter, and
then to the relative wiring table below

3.1.1 HVL data handling when connected to an External Device

When the Modbus communication is active between the HVL and an External Device, HVL “locks”
the possibility to change most of the system parameters from the local push buttons on the
inverter. This is to prevent conflicts between the values (read and written) by the (remote) External
Device, and the parameters values that could be over-written/changed by the local operator.
The HVL display is showing a “REMOTE” indication to signal the active locking on parameter edit
during an External Device Modbus access.

The parameters free from REMOTE change lock are the same related to the function of parameter
P115 "LOCK FUNCT.", e.g. Stop/Start manual command on HOME display, and P61
“PASSWORD”.

To un-lock the parameter editing by the local push buttons on the HYDROVAR HVL, the Modbus
communication with the device must be stopped or interrupted.

11
3.2 HVLs in Multi-Pump application connected to an External Device

Terminals X1/11, X1/12 and X1/13 are used for the communication among up to 8 HYDROVAR
HVL in a Multi-Pump application; a dedicated termination resistor switch (BUS1, see image below)
is made available to add a parallel terminator resistor to this RS485 port: if the resistor is needed
put BUS1 switch to ON position, using as a reference the Modbus org. “MODBUS over serial line
specification and implementation guide” that can be found on the Internet.

Figure 6

In a Multi-Pump application communicating with an external device (e.g. PLC or BMS), each
HYDROVAR HVL shall be connected to the external device by wiring the terminals X1/24, X1/25
and X1/26, as described in par. 3.1

3.2.1 HVL data handling when connected in Multi-Pump and to an External Device

Special care should be taken when an External Device (by mean of Modbus protocol), requires to
read and write HVL parameters, being the drive connected into a Multi-Pump system too.

In particular
 In a Multi-Pump application, to “Read Holding Registers” requests on the Modbus, each
HVL returns to the External Device exclusively its own parameters, not parameters of other
drives (HVL) connected in the booster set
 In a Multi-Pump application, requests of “Write Single Registers” or “Write Multiple
Registers” on the Modbus must be sent, by the external device, to all HVLs connected,
even if the parameters to be written are “Global” (for the booster set)

As previously detailed at par. 3.1.1, if the Modbus communication is active between the
HYDROVAR HVL linked within a booster set and connected to an External Device, then it will be
“locked” the possibility to change most system parameters from the local push buttons on the
Hydrovar, to prevent conflicts between the values read/written by the remote External Device.
The REMOTE lock for parameters edit can be disabled stopping the Modbus communication.

13

Data types are:

 U08 – Unsigned 8 bits
 U16 – Unsigned 16 bits
 U32 – Unsigned 32 bits (can be written by mean of Write Multiple Register only, function code 0x10)
 S08 – Signed 8 bits
 S16 – Signed 16 bits
 _B0 – 8 bits bitmap
 _B1 – 16 bits bitmap
 _B2 – 32 bits bitmap

(*) : parameter have values boundaries/selections that could be available only based on HVL model variant, and/or optional cards

Note 1: some parameters have values, properties and/or boundaries that are runtime dependent on other parameters values.
In particular, if a parameter value range (min. value, max. value) is reported to have dependence on other parameters value(s), the
device may report Modbus write exceptions on the dependent parameter.

Note 2: exclusively whilst the motor is running, HVL answers an exception to Modbus writing function requests (0x06, 0x10)
