1.1 About this Document
This document is intended to provide a good understanding of the functionality offered by the
Anybus CompactCom B40 Modbus Serial.
The reader of this document is expected to be familiar with high level software design and
communication systems in general. The information in this user manual should normally be
sufficient to implement a design. However if advanced network specific functionality is to be
used, in-depth knowledge of network networking internals and/or information from the official
network specifications may be required. In such cases, the persons responsible for the
implementation of this product should either obtain the network specification to gain sufficient
knowledge or limit their implementation in such a way that this is not necessary.

2 About the Anybus CompactCom B40 Modbus Serial
2.1 General Information
The Anybus CompactCom B40 Modbus Serial is a communication solution for simple industrial
field devices. The host application communicates with the product using the Modbus RTU
protocol. The Anybus CompactCom B40 Modbus Serial then communicates the data to the
network. Typical applications are basic level I/O blocks, temperature controllers, measuring
devices, and sensors.
The Anybus CompactCom B40 Modbus Serial software interface is designed to be network
protocol independent, making it possible to support several networking systems using the same
application software code/driver.
The Anybus CompactCom B40 Modbus Serial share footprint and electrical interface with the
other members of the product family, independent of fieldbus or network. The host application
connector provides an interface between the host application (Modbus RTU) and the Anybus
CompactCom, while the network connector provides access to the chosen network. The Anybus
CompactCom acts as a Modbus RTU slave on the host application side.
The Anybus CompactCom 40 family offers a wide range of functionality. For advanced products and
applications, we recommend the standard Anybus CompactCom 40.
For general information about other products using the Anybus CompactCom 40 platform,
consult www.anybus.com/support.
This a class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio
interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
This product contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts that may be damaged if
ESD control procedures are not followed. Static control precautions are required when
handling the product. Failure to observe this may cause damage to the product.

described in Modbus Application Interface, p. 8.
2.4.2 Hardware Design
• When creating your hardware design, refer to Hardware Design, p. 13 for descriptions of
connectors etc. Please note that some inputs should be strapped to ensure correct behavior.
• Dimensions and other mechanical information is presented in Mechanical Specification, p.

3 Modbus Application Interface
The host application interface of the product consists of a Modbus Serial interface, which
implements a reduced set of registers and commands. The Anybus CompactCom acts as a
Modbus RTU slave.
3.1 How To Set Up and Initialize the Modbus Communication
To set up and initialize the communication between the host application and the network, follow
the steps below. Steps 2 - 6 includes examples of what the Modbus messages can look like.
1. Set Modbus address, baud rate, stop bits, and parity according to Communication Settings,
p. 19.
See Hardware Design, p. 13 for information on how to connect the corresponding pins.
2. Write initial values to the Write Process Data area (registers 0x0000-). (Optional)
Example – Using the Modbus function Write Multiple Holding Registers to set
initial values for 10 Write Process Data registers (20 bytes) to CompactCom with address 5.

3. Write switch settings to register 0x5200-0x5201, “Application switch 1” and “Application
switch 2”. Optional for networks that do not require these settings.
Example – Using the Modbus function Write Single Holding Register to set the
Node Address for a network using a node address for identification. NOTE: Node address 7
will be used on the Industrial Network (e.g. PROFIBUS).
Address Function Code
0x05 6 0x5200 7 CRC-16-ANSI

4. Set Offline Action for Read Process Data in register 0x5101 (Clear or No action). (Oprtional)
Example – Using the Modbus function Write Single Holding Register to configure
Clear as the Offline Action for Read Process Data (all data will be 0 if the network is
offline).
Address Function Code
0x05 6 0x5101 0 CRC-16-ANSI

5. Set the size of the Write Process Data area to register 0x5102. Data type (byte or word) is
configured with register 0x5100.
Example – Using the Modbus function Write Single Holding Register to configure
Write Process Data size 20 bytes. Assuming default value of register 0x5100, i.e. data type is
UINT8.

6. Set the size of the Read Process Data area to register 0x5103. Data type (byte or word) is
configured with register 0x5100.
Example – Using the Modbus function Write Single Holding Register to configure
Read Process Data size 18 bytes. Assuming default value of register 0x5100, i.e. data type is
UINT8.
Address Function Code
0x05 6 0x5103 18 CRC-16-ANSI
Data CRC
Register Address Register Value
7. The CompactCom is now ready to start communicating with the network master with the
configured settings. Start cyclical read/write of process data to register 0x0000- and 0x1000-.
Also consider to cyclically monitor the values of register 0x0FFD (Anybus Switch Status),
0x0FFE (LED status), and 0x0FFF (Anybus Status).
If a reset request is indicated in the Anybus Status register, the host application must reset
the CompactCom, and start the initialization sequence from step 1. See RESET (Reset Input),
p. 18.
Example – The Modbus function Read/Write Multiple Registers allows you to
both read and write registers with one command. In this example the status registers and
the read process data registers are read, at the same time as the write process data
registers are written.

The Anybus CompactCom will stay in state SETUP until values have been written to 0x5102 and
0x5103 (items no. 5 and 6 in the list above). The Anybus CompactCom will then change states to
WAIT_PROCESS, and the registers 0x5100-0x5103 will be read-only.

3.2.1 Error Handling
• Modbus reads, addressing undefined registers, return zeroes.
• Modbus writes, addressing undefined registers, do not return any error.
• Modbus writes containing invalid data to registers do not return any error.
• Modbus writes, addressing read-only registers, do not return any error.
3.2.2 Endianess
• If 8-bit data types are mapped to Modbus registers, the first byte is mapped to LSB and the
second byte is mapped to MSB of the Modbus register.
3.2.3 Anybus Command (Modbus Function Code 70)
This command can be used to send an Anybus CompactCom message. Allowed content depends
on which network is connected to the Anybus CompactCom. The data field part of the telegram
is composed by concatenating the content for each configuration option to include. Note that
the total amount of configuration options to set is limited to 244 bytes of data. Please refer to
the applicable network appendix for more information.
The content of the telegram will be stored and used at the next startup. It is not necessary to
send this telegram at each startup. Instead it is recommended to send it once to customize the
Anybus CompactCom behavior.

The SUP bit indicates the overall status of the network

that the master has a connection towards the module.
Exactly how this functionality should be handled, the
offered level of security, and how to correctly activate
it is network specific and often depends on external
circumstances, e.g. configuration of the network as
well as other network devices. Whether use of the
SUP-bit is appropriate must therefore be decided for
each specific application and network.
