About this Module
About this Module
The Milltronics SmartLinx®Modbus® RTU Module plugs into a compatible Milltronics
instrument to allow connection to any Modbus RTU master controller.
Modbus RTU is an industry standard protocol that is supported by many different
instruments. A brief description of the protocol and the Milltronics memory map are
outlined in Modbus RTU Protocol section of this manual (see page 20).
Only those instruments which support the SmartLinx Modbus RTU module can use this
card. See Specifications on page 5 for a list of compatible instruments.

About this Manual
About this Manual
This manual is intended to provide the user with the information required to successfully
install and connect a Milltronics SmartLinx Modbus RTU module and set it up for
communication within a Modbus RTU network.
This manual is targeted to a technical audience in the industrial communications field
with a sound working knowledge of Modbus RTU.
Modbus RTU is an industry standard protocol owned by Schneider Electric and is used
throughout process control industries for communication between instruments, including
those manufactured by Milltronics, and controllers, such as PLCs and PCs.
A brief description of Modbus RTU is given in this manual. For a full description of the
Modbus RTU protocol, contact Schneider Electric or visit their website at
www.modicon.com.
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions about the manual contents, please
email us at techpubs@siemens-milltronics.com.

Installation
Termination Switch
Termination is generally of concern when communicating at higher baud rates, and when
the Milltronics host instrument is the unique or terminating slave.
If the 110 Ωswitched termination is inappropriate, set the switch to open and connect an
appropriate resistor across terminals 4 and 5.
Port Configuration
Switch one configures the port for either RS-232 or RS-485 transmission.
Reserved Switch
These switches are reserved and must be left in their factory setting.
