Modbus RTU Register Summary for SOCOMEC DIRIS A40 (Número do pedido. 48250201)

Important Prerequisites

1. Protocolo: Modbus RTU, Código de Função 03 (Read Holding Registers). All measurement data are stored in holding registers;
2. Data format: 32-bit signed/unsigned integer (occupies two consecutive 16-bit registers, Big-Endian, high word first);
3. Address in manual = decimal offset address (PDU address, starts at 0)

For configuration software using 4xxxx format: Offset address + 40001

Exemplo: Desvio 786 → Register 40787

4. Raw values need scaling division to obtain actual engineering values;
5. Two sets of register maps exist: Old map (Firmware ≤2008) / New map (Firmware ≥2009). The table below is the new standard register map used for most field devices.
6. Default Communication Parameters

Slave address: 1

Taxa de transmissão: 9600

Data bits: 8, Stop bits: 1, Paridade: Nenhum

Parameters can be modified via front panel menu

2. Common Real-Time Measurement Registers (PDU Offset, FC03)

3. Energy Metering Registers (Energy Counter, 32-bit Unsigned)

⚠️ Model 48250201 basic version has no pulse output or DI/DO; I/O status registers are not required.

4. Reading Example

Read Total Active Power: Offset address 806, read 2 consecutive registers

Returned data [High Word, Low Word] forms a 32-bit integer → Value ÷100 = kW

Exemplo: Raw reading = 12560 → 12560 /100 = 125.60 kW

5. Armadilhas Comuns & Notas
6. Word Order: DIRIS A40 uses Big-Endian (high register = high 16-bit). Most configuration software supports this natively; some drivers require manual swap of high/low word.
7. Incompatibility between old and new firmware register maps

All readings equal zero: Likely old firmware register map (starts at 0x700).

3. CT/PT Ratio: After ratio setting inside the meter, register values already represent primary-side actual values. Do NOT multiply by transformer ratio again.
4. Avoid reading excessive continuous registers in one request; limit to ≤20 registers per command to prevent communication errors.
5. Extended registers for harmonic, THD, maximum demand and event logs are available and generally unnecessary for conventional data acquisition.

Official Manual Reference: 536103B (DIRIS A40/A41 Modbus communication manual), containing complete register list, alarm parameters and write registers.

Procedure to Modify RS485 Modbus Communication Parameters via Front Panel for SOCOMEC DIRIS A40 (48250201)

Front Panel Button Definition (96×96 Model)

◀ LEFT: Cursor left / Scroll up

▶ RIGHT: Cursor right / Enter & Confirmar

▲ UP: Value increase / Scroll up

▼ DOWN: Value decrease / Scroll down

Default Administrator Password: 100

Default Communication Settings: Slave address=1, Baud rate=9600, Data bits=8, Stop bits=1, Parity=None

Step-by-Step Operation

Etapa 1: Enter Configuration Menu

Meter displays normal measurement screen (voltage/current view)

1. Pressão longa [▶ RIGHT] confirm key for 3～5 seconds
2. Screen prompts CODE ?, password input required

Etapa 2: Input Password 100

▲ UP: Increment digit

▶ RIGHT: Shift cursor to next digit

Set digits sequentially: `1` → `0` → `0`

After input, long press [▶ RIGHT] to enter main configuration menu

Etapa 3: Navigate to Communication Menu

Scroll using ▲ / ▼ to locate:

RS485 COMMUNICATION

Press ▶ RIGHT to enter submenu

Etapa 4: Modify Communication Parameters Item by Item

Four configurable items:

1. COM ADR (Modbus Slave Address)

Faixa: 1～247. Ensure unique address for each meter on the bus.

▶ Enter → Adjust value via ▲▼ → ▶ Confirm

2. BAUD (Taxa de transmissão)

Opções: 1200 / 2400 / 4800 / 9600 / 19200 / 38400 / 57600 /115200

3. PARITY

NÃO: No parity (Recommended for site use)

EVEN: Even parity

ODD: dd parity

4. STOP BIT

1 / 2; Standard site setting: 1

⚠️ Critical: Host device (PLC/Gateway/Modbus Poll) parameters must match the meter exactly, otherwise communication failure occurs.

Etapa 5: Save and Exit

After all parameters modified:

1. Scroll to EXIT using ▲▼
2. Press ▶ RIGHT to confirm exit
3. Prompt SAVE? YES/NO

Select YES to save; select NO to discard all changes.

After successful saving, meter automatically returns to measurement main screen. New communication settings take effect immediately.

⚠️ Common Faults & Reminders

1. Forgotten Password 100

Panel modification unavailable. Two solutions:

① Use Easy Config software via RS485 to read or reset password;

② Factory reset (CT ratio, energy data will be cleared. Proceed with caution).

2. Troubleshooting checklist if communication fails after parameter modification

No duplicated slave addresses; taxa de transmissão, parity and stop bits fully matched

RS485 wiring: A to A, B to B. Do not reverse polarity

120Ω terminating resistor at bus end to be deployed as required

Confirm model 48250201 integrates built-in RS485; no extra communication module required

3. Menu Language

Older firmware: English menu `RS485 COMM`

Newer firmware: Chinese menu supported RS485通讯
