2.1
Overview
SICAM Feeder Condition Monitor (FCM) is an Intelligent Electronic Device (IED) used for detecting and indi­cating short circuits or ground faults with and without directional information. SICAM FCM accurately moni­tors, measures, and displays operational measured values and performs the condition monitoring task in a medium-voltage distribution system. SICAM FCM is typically used in the medium-voltage and low-voltage secondary substation that ranges from 0.4 kV to 36 kV.
SICAM FCM measures the RMS value for alternating voltage, alternating current, and power frequency. SICAM FCM calculates the active power (P), reactive power (Q), apparent power (S), power factor (cos φ), phase angle, energy, and other relevant values.
SICAM FCM consists of the following hardware interfaces:
3 current inputs
3 voltage inputs
1 digital input
2 digital outputs
1 RS 485 interface (Modbus RTU)
1 auxiliary power supply

Disposal of Mobile Storage Devices (e.g. USB Sticks and Memory Cards)
Environmental Protection Hints
The disposal of our products and possible recycling of their components after decommissioning has to be carried out by an accredited recycling company, or the products/components must be taken to applicable collection points. Such disposal activities must comply with all local laws, guidelines and environmental speci­fications of the country in which the disposal is done. For the European Union the sustainable disposal of elec­tronic scrap is defined in the respective regulation for "waste electrical and electronic equipment" (WEEE).
The crossed-out wheelie bin on the products, packaging and/or accompanying documents means that used electrical and electronic products and batteries must not be mixed with normal house­hold waste.
According to national legislation, penalties may be charged for incorrect disposal of such waste.
By disposing of these products correctly you will help to save valuable resources and prevent any potential negative effects on human health and the environment.
NOTE
Our products and batteries must not be disposed of as household waste. For disposing batteries it is neces­sary to observe the local national/international directives.
When disposing of/transferring mobile storage devices, using the format or delete functions only changes the file management information and does not completely delete the data from your mobile storage device. When disposing of or transferring a mobile storage device, Siemens strongly recommends physically destroying it or completely deleting data from the mobile storage device by using a commercially available computer data erasing software.

Enhanced Fault Validation and Fault-Reset Function

The enhanced fault validation provides an additional functionality by detecting the absence of voltage or current and enables a delay of the fault indication and fault reset.
The fault can be detected and reset by additionally configuring the following timers:
Timer Description
T1 Monitoring period for fault validation T2 Absence of voltage and current monitoring time T3 Auto reset time after resumption of voltage or current
When the system phase current exceeds the set current thresholds (I>, low-set or I>>, high-set) and persists for the defined time (tI>), the device starts monitoring the pickup time (T1). When the fault is isolated, the system voltage/current drops. When this condition is reached, the device monitors the absence of voltage for a time T2 for the drop in voltage or current as long as it reaches values below 6 kV (phase-to-ground) or 5 A respectively. The fault is indicated if the absence of voltage or current persists until the timer T2 elapses (T2<T1).
For the ground fault, configure the threshold for the neutral-point displacement voltage (VNG>) and the ground current (IN>). If the threshold exceeds the setting and the fault persists for the times tIN> and tVNG>, the device indicates the ground fault based on the timers T1 and T2. If the timer T3 is configured, then the auto reset of the fault indication occurs after the resumption of voltage
or currents. The device monitors if the voltages or currents of the system increase for this time period T3 above 6 kV or 5 A respectively. After elapse of the set time, the device resets the fault indication.
The following logic diagrams illustrates the fault-detection initiation and fault reset.

Definite Minimum Time (DMT)

Trip Time DMT and IDMT

SICAM FCM supports both the DMT and IDMT function.
DMT is applicable for both the phase fault and the ground fault. The 3 DMT settings are I>, I>>, IN>. Each setting consists of the independent trip-time delays tI>, tI>>, and tIN>. The user-defined DMT setting is used to configure various current thresholds for the entire dynamic primary
current range. If the current in the system exceeds the set threshold and persists for the set time specified, the device indi-
cates a fault. The device provides an option to set for 2 current thresholds and 2 time delay thresholds. The following table illustrates the parameter settings and the values.

Inverse Definite Minimum Time (IDMT)
IDMT characteristics are defined as Inverse because the trip time is inversely proportional to the fault current being measured.
In SICAM FCM, the IDMT function supports the Normal Inverse (NI) characteristics. The ANSI codes supported by the IDMT function are non-directional (51) and directional (67) for overcurrent indication.
IDMT function is applicable only for the phase currents I1, I2, and I3. The following table illustrates the parameter settings and the values.

DO Configuration

The digital output (DO) is configured to indicate either the fault direction or the device-health status by using the DO configuration parameter.
If the DOs are configured to indicate the fault direction:
DO1 operates to indicate a forward fault direction and DO2 operates to indicate a reverse fault direction.
Operation of both DOs indicates that the fault direction could not be determined.
If the DOs are configured to indicate the device-health status:
DO1 operates to indicate an unhealthy device (DO2 is deactivated).
If both DOs do not operate, this is an indication that the device is healthy.
The DO configuration can only be switched if SICAM FCM does not indicate any faults. For more information about the DO configuration parameter, refer to DO Configuration, Page 123.

Operating Modes

The device goes to the sleep mode when disconnected from an auxiliary supply. In this mode, the communi­cation with the RTU is not available. In the sleep mode, you can press any of the keys to view the events.
The device enters the deep sleep mode after 8 hours in the sleep mode and requires an auxiliary supply to recover from this mode.

Correction Factors for LoPo VT and LoPo CT (IEC 61869-10, IEC 61869-11)

IEC 61869-10 and IEC 61869-11 allow to adjust the magnitudes and phases of current and voltage sensors. If any inaccuracies are stable within the measuring range, then the overall accuracy of sensors is improved to higher level.
Sensors which specify individual correction factors on their labels and in routine tests can be configured
in SICAM FCM to improve system accuracy.
Sensors which are used in combination with SICAM FCM and do not have correction factors, disable the
respective correction factors. In this way, the device works with secondary values as measured without any influence on magnitudes and phase angles.
The correction factors are expressed in terms of magnitude and angle offset per phase of voltage/current. By enabling the Correction Factor parameter via HMI or Modbus, then the device applies these correction factors to improve the measuring accuracy of the sensor.
The correction factor works as per the following logic:
The measured phase-to-ground voltages and measured phase currents/ground currents are multiplied by
the respective voltage and current magnitude factor.
The measured phase-to-ground voltage and phase currents/ground current angles are added for positive
angle offset or subtracted for negative angle offset.
The correction factor is applied on all measured values and reflects on all derived values.
If Correction Factor parameter (holding register address 79) is set to 0 (disabled), then the correction factors with the holding addresses 80 to 91 are set to 0 and not applied in voltage/current measurements.

Power-Flow Direction Reversal for Solidly-Grounded System

Power-Flow Direction Reversal

The following power-flow direction parameters define the polarity of the CT/LoPo sensor for I1, I2, and I3 meas­urements:
I1 power-flow direction
I2/IN power-flow direction
I3 power-flow direction
If the CT/LoPo sensor is connected in the opposite direction, the current measured using the CT/LoPo sensor has an additional phase shift of 180°. The power-flow direction parameters are used to compensate the addi­tional phase shift.
If the power-flow direction parameters are set to reversed, the power-flow direction is reversed by adding 180° to the respective measured phase-current angle.
If the power-flow direction parameters are set to not reversed, it restores the power-flow direction to the original direction.
For more information about power-flow direction parameters, refer to I1 Power-Flow Direction, Page 124.
The following power-flow direction reversal parameters affect the respective power-flow direction, fault direc­tion, and power:
I

They also affect the IN angle, IN power-flow direction, and IN> fault direction. The corrected angles for I1, I2, and I3 are displayed in the Modbus input register.
If the power-flow direction parameters are set to reversed, the fault direction is shifted by 180°.
Power-Flow Direction Reversal for Resonant/Isolated Grounded System
The power-flow direction reversal for IN affects the IN power-flow direction, IN fault direction, and watt-metric ground current. The original IN angle before correction is displayed in the Modbus input register and is used for deriving the I2 angle.
The power-flow direction reversal for I1 and I3 affects the respective power-flow direction, fault direction, and power. The corrected angles for I1 and I3 are displayed in the Modbus input register.
If the power-flow direction parameters are set to not reversed, the fault direction is shifted by 180°.

P,Q Sign

The P,Q sign parameter is used to reverse the sign of active power (P) and reactive power (Q) for all phases. The P,Q sign parameter cannot be configured for individual phases.
Device Functions
4.1 Description
If the P,Q sign parameter value is set to not reversed, the sign of active power (P) and reactive power (Q) for all phases indicates the original active power (P) and reactive power (Q). If the P,Q sign parameter value is set to reversed, the signs of active power (P) and reactive power (Q) for all phases get reversed. The P,Q sign parameter is independent of the power-flow direction parameter. The P,Q sign parameter affects the total active power (P) and reactive power (Q). The P,Q sign parameter does not affect the power-flow direction, fault direction, current angle, and power factor for all phases. It also does not affect the watt-metric ground current.
For more information about the P,Q sign parameter, refer to P,Q Sign, Page 125.

3-Phase Angle Calculations

A phase sequence defines the sequential timing in which each phase-to-ground voltage phasor lags each phase-to-ground voltage phasor in the counter-clockwise direction.
Figure 4-8 shows the 3-phase sequence. The sequence shown below implies that V12 leads V23 by 120° and
V23 leads V31 by 120°. In addition, V1N leads V2N by 120° and V2N leads V3N by 120°. It is mandatory to establish the balanced phase sequence before any calculations. In the device, V1N is considered as a reference phasor at 0°. This phase sequence is needed to relate the calculated phasor angles with reference to the phasor V1N.
[dw_sfcm3phangcalc, 1, en_US]
Figure 4-8 3-Phase Angle Calculations
In a standard balanced system, all phase-to-phase voltages are phase-to-neutral voltages multiplied by √3 and lead the phase-to-neutral voltage phasors by 30°. For example, in a standard 4-wire, 3-phase wye system with phase-to-neutral voltages of 120 V and V1N selected as the reference phasor, then phase-to-phase voltages are as follows: V12 = 208∠ 30°; V23 = 208∠ 270°; V31 = 208∠ 150°.

Phase-Sequence Monitoring

The phase sequence of the measured phase-to-ground voltages is checked by monitoring the angle difference between phase-to-ground and phase-to-phase voltages.
SICAM FCM monitors the phase sequence of voltage signals from voltage sensors and displays it on the HMI/ Modbus. The phase-sequence monitoring algorithm uses measured phase-to-ground voltage and phase-to­phase voltage angles in balanced condition. For monitoring the phase sequence, the threshold voltage is at least 50 % of primary voltage.

If the phase sequence is ABC, then the discrete input (33) of the Modbus register is set to 1. If the phase sequence is ACB, then the discrete input (34) of the Modbus register is set to 1. If the phase sequence is not detected, then the discrete inputs (33, 34) of the Modbus registers are set to 0. If the phase-to-ground voltage is below the threshold voltage, then the phase sequence is displayed as --- on
the HMI and the Modbus register is set to 0. If there are any device alerts and a fault is detected in the system, then the phase sequence is displayed as ---
on the HMI and the Modbus register is set to 0.
NOTE
Protection functions implemented in SICAM FCM are designed for clockwise phase sequence only.

Determination of Fault Direction

The fault direction for the phase faults is determined by calculating the phase angles between the fault current and the corresponding phase-to-phase voltages.

Direction Determination of Phase Elements

In the device, the directional overcurrent element operates for any faults either in forward direction or in reverse direction.
The directional determination of phase elements works in the quadrature connection to prevent the loss of polarizing quantity for close-in phase faults. Each current element has a direction by a voltage derived from the other 2 phases. This connection introduces a 90° phase jump (current leading voltage) between reference voltages and operating quantities (currents). A fault is determined to be in the selected direction if its phase relationship lies within a quadrant of ± 85° on either side of the characteristic angle. It is hard-coded as +45°.

Directional Ground Fault (Compensated/Resonant-Grounded)

In the compensated/resonant-grounded system, the Petersen coil is configured to match the capacitive charging currents, such that when a ground fault occurs, a negligible fault current flows. The characteristic angle is set to 0°. A boundary of +90° is used to detect the direction of the resistive component within residual currents.
With the cos φ method, the watt-metric residual current is calculated in case of a fault. This method of deter­mining the ground-fault detection is implemented in the watt-metric method. For more information about the watt-metric method, refer to 4.1.20 Ground-Fault Detection with Cos φ/Sin φ Measurement.
In the vector method, the ground-fault detection occurs if the total current IN> is exceeded. The device calculates the active power of the zero sequence (P0) and if the value is falling in the 1st and the
4th quadrant, then the direction is forward. If the active power of the zero sequence (P0) is falling in the 2nd and 3rd quadrant, then the direction is shown as reverse.
For more information about directional ground-fault parameters (compensated/resonant-grounded), see
Table A-3 and refer to the Fault Parameter > Ground-Fault Detection > Neutral-point Treatment menu.

Directional Ground Fault (in Isolated Electrical Power Systems)

During ground fault on the isolated distribution system, no fault path is detected and subsequently no fault current flows. The phase-to-neutral capacitive charging current of the healthy phases for the entire system is supplied through the fault path. This produces a current that is used to detect the presence of the ground fault. It appears as a residual current which lags the residual voltage by 90°. The characteristic angle is -90°.
The device calculates the reactive power of the zero sequence (Q0). If the value is falling in the 1st and the 2nd quadrant, then the direction is reverse. If the reactive power of the zero sequence (Q0) is falling in the 3rd and 4th quadrant, then the direction is shown as forward.
For more information about directional ground-fault parameters (isolated grounded), see Table A-3 and refer to the Fault Parameter > Ground-Fault Detection > Neutral-point Treatment menu.

Ground-Fault Direction for Solidly Grounded System

The solidly grounded system is a common system arrangement in which the neutral is solidly connected to the ground. For the solid-grounded connection, the neutral-point displacement voltage is sufficient to measure and determine the directional information. This results in determining the ground-fault direction based on the rotation angle of the reference vector.

Ground-Fault Detection with Cos φ/Sin φ Measurement

Determination of a Ground Fault with the Pulse-Location Detection Mechanism

The Pulse-location detection mechanism detects a faulty feeder during a permanent ground fault in overcompensated systems. The Pulse-location detection mechanism is applicable for resonanlt-grounded systems only and not applicable to the undercompensated systems.
Figure 4-15 shows a simplified network with the pulse-location detection mechanism. The pulse pattern in the
ground current IN is generated by switching on and off a capacitor in parallel to the arc-suppression coil:
When the capacitor is switched on, an additional capacitive ground current is generated and the ground-
current compensation changes.
When the capacitor is switched off, the additional capacitive ground current no longer exists and the
ground-current compensation returns to the normal state.

The Figure 4-16 shows the ground-current pulse pattern in an overcompensated system for a low-impedance ground fault and a high-impedance ground fault.
For low-impedance ground faults, the pulse pattern exists only in the faulty feeder.
For high-impedance ground faults, the pulse pattern is also present in the healthy feeders with lower
amplitude but in phase opposition to the faulty feeder. Using different values of the parameters Pulse-on duration (TPulse ON) and Pulse-off
duration (TPulse OFF), the differentiation between healthy and faulty feeders for high-impedance ground faults can be ascertained.

Figure 4-16 Ground-Current Pulse Pattern in an Overcompensated System
For the faulty feeder, the ground-current pulse pattern is as follows:
When the clocking pulse is on, the capacitor is switched on, the ground current in the faulty feeder is
reduced, and the corresponding current pulse pattern is off.
When the clocking pulse is off, the capacitor is switched off, the ground current in the faulty feeder is
increased, and the current pulse pattern is on.
Table 4-10
Clocking Pulse Capacitor Ground Current in the
On On Reduced Off Off Off Increased On
With the Pulse-on duration and Pulse-off duration parameters, you can define the switch-on and switch-off duration of the capacitor. These values must be set according to the operation of the clocking device that determines the switch-on and switch-off duration of the capacitor. If you set these 2 parameters to the same value or to similar values, there is a risk of failure. This is the case because the stage cannot distin­guish the healthy and faulty feeders by only evaluating the ground current during a high-impedance ground fault.
Number of Pulses for Operate (PulseTh Op.) is defined as the number of pulses to be detected within the pulse monitoring time.
Number of Pulses for Monitoring (PulseTh Mon.) is defined as the number of pulses to be considered for calculating the pulse monitoring time.
The pulse monitoring time is calculated via the following formula: Pulse monitoring time = Number of Pulses for Monitoring (PulseTh Mon.) ⋅ (TPulse ON +
TPulse OFF) If the measured Pulse-on duration and Pulse-off duration is equal to the configured TPulse ON
and TPulse OFF, then a valid pulse is detected. If the number of detected pulses within the pulse monitoring time reaches the setting of the Number of Pulses for Operate (PulseTh Op.), then the ground fault is detected.

Determination of the Ground-Fault Phase

The phase in which the voltage falls below V< (under-voltage phase threshold for ground­fault) is identified as the phase fault, as long as the other 2 phase-to-ground voltages simultaneously
exceeds V> (over-voltage phase threshold for ground-fault). V< must be set to less than the minimum expected operational phase-to-ground voltage. V> must be greater than the maximum expected operational phase-to-ground voltage. If V> and V< are set to zero, these voltages will not be used for fault detection.
NOTE
V< and V> have no significance in a solidly grounded system.
The following figure shows the ground fault displayed on the HMI with the phase fault.

Determination of Repeated Phase Faults with Automatic Reclosing

The device detects and records the repeated phase faults. A repeated phase fault is defined as the phase fault that occurs due to an automatic reclosing (AREC) as long as the SICAM FCM indicates the fault, that is, it has not been reset via one of the possible reset mechanisms yet. When a fault occurs, one of the 2 digital outputs is closed and gets latched (DO1 for forward fault direction and DO2 for reverse fault direction). For a subse­quent phase fault, one of the 2 digital outputs opens for 100 ms and closes again afterwards.
For every phase fault, the Modbus register (Address 24) is set for 3 s or until the fault current persists. If the fault current does not persist, the Modbus register is reset for 3 s.
This logic is active only if the DOs are not configured. For more information about the Modbus register, refer to Table B-11.

Intermittent Ground Fault

A typical characteristic of intermittent ground faults is that they often extinguish automatically and strike again after some time. The fault can last between a few milliseconds and many seconds.
If the ground current (IN) exceeds the ground-current threshold (IN>) and lasts for time less than tIN>, then pickups are counted. When ground-current pickup counter exceeds the value of Nos det. within a configu-
rable time T det. ext., an intermittent ground fault is detected. The ground-current pickup counter is cleared under the following conditions:
If the FCM reboots and when the permanent ground fault occurs, then the ground-current pickup
counter is cleared.
If a permanent phase fault has occurred and the fault is reset, then the ground-current pickup counter is
cleared
If ground-current faults get detected multiple times within the fault reset time, the respective digital output operates for 25 ms (DO1 for forward fault direction and DO2 for reverse fault direction).

Inrush-Current Detection/Blocking

The device detects the presence of high level of 2nd harmonic current. For example, a transformer inrush current. If the 2nd harmonic current is greater than 15 % of the measured phase current of any of the 3 phases, the device does not issue a fault indication for the set threshold I>, tI>, IN>, and tIN>. If the fault
persists for more than the configured CrossBlockTimer value, then the device displays a fault indication. The device does not block the fault indication if the fault current is above the set threshold I>> for the time tI>>.
If the fault current persists for the respective time setting (tI> for phases, tIN> for ground), the inrush-current blocking function monitors the inrush current. The inrush current is detected by analyzing the magnitude of
the 2nd harmonic components of the phase vectors.

Primary Current Settings

Based on the selected current-transformer type, the rated primary current parameter can be set from 50 A to 1000 A via the user interface or Modbus registers.
After setting the parameters, connect the current inputs I1, I2/IN, I3 via low-power current transformers (LoPo CTs) or conventional current transformers (CT). For interfacing via conventional CTs, use a 1 A CT adaptor
(MLFB 6MD2320-0AA10-1AA0) or a 5 A CT adaptor (MLFB 6MD2320-0AA20-1AA0). The LoPo CTs convert the primary current to a proportional output voltage. The device has a rated primary
current setting of 300 A (@ 225 mV).

Ground-Current Calculation

For solidly-grounded systems, the ground currents are calculated from the vector sum of 3 phases. The ground current is also calculated for isolated/resonant-grounded systems, when the phase-current sensor for phase L2 is connected to the I2/IN terminal.
If the ground-current sensor is connected to the I2/IN terminal, the ground current can be measured for isolated/resonant-grounded systems. When the ground current is measured, the ground current can be configured from 25 A to 150 A. For more information about the ground sensor, refer to Ground Sensor, Page 123. The calculation/measurement of the ground current is determined by setting the Ground-current acquisition

Network Voltage Ratio

In the medium-voltage applications, higher rated voltage sensors can be used in the system with lower rated voltages. For example, a 20-kV sensor can be used in a 10-kV primary voltage system. In this case, enter the appropriate sensor voltage ratio and primary voltage settings to display the correct network voltage as described in the following example:
If the primary rated voltage is equal to the rated sensor voltage, set both the parameters, that is primary voltage and the sensor voltage as the primary rated voltage. For example, if a 20-kV sensor is used in the 20-kV system, set the primary voltage and the sensor voltage equal to 20 kV.
Also when the primary rated voltage is lower than the rated sensor voltage, set the Primary voltage param­eter equal to the primary rated voltage and the Sensor voltage parameter equal to the rated sensor voltage. For example, if a 20-kV sensor is used in the 10-kV system, set the primary voltage equal to 10 kV and the sensor rated voltage equal to 20 kV.
NOTE
When the device with firmware version 2.00/2.10 is upgraded to firmware version 2.20 and above, check the Primary voltage and Sensor voltage parameters and adapt them accordingly.

Undervoltage Alarm and Undervoltage Warning
Overvoltage Alarm and Overvoltage Warning

Device Alerts

The device can detect and indicate overvoltage alarms and warnings, undervoltage alarms and warnings, and overcurrent alarms and warnings when it is in service. The device alerts are communicated via Modbus and displayed on the user interface. The alerts reset automatically when the current/voltage falls below the threshold levels again or exceeds them again in case of an undervoltage.
The undervoltage alerts are enabled when the system voltage falls below the user-defined setting (V Alarm/V about the undervoltage alarm and undervoltage warning, see Table A-4 and refer to the Fault Parameters >
Undervoltage Warning and Undervoltage Alarm menu.

Overcurrent Alarm and Overcurrent Warning
Overcurrent warning and overcurrent alarm is applicable to phase current I1, I2, and I3 only. The overcurrent alerts are enabled if the system current exceeds the user-defined setting (I
Warning) and persists for a user-defined time (overcurrent alarm time/overcurrent warning time). The overcurrent warning and overcurrent alarm resets when the current falls below the threshold with a
hysteresis of 5 % of rated primary current. For example, if the warning threshold is set to 500 A, the device resets the alert if the current falls below 485 A for a rated primary current of 300 A (15 A is 5 % of 300 A).

Archive Logging

An archive log is composed of:
Event logs
The device stores 20 faults as event logs on the non-volatile memory. The event logs consists of time stamps and fault current values. The event log is designed as a ring buffer where the new fault always overwrite the oldest stored event.
Due to the watchdog timer reset, the Device Error Event is also saved. For the device error event, in Modbus the Current values are shown as 0. In HMI, the message Device error watchdog timer reset is displayed without showing the phase-current values.
Trailing pointers
The minimum and maximum values of current are archived every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 1 month, and 1 year.
For more information about the parameters of archive logging, see Table A-1 and refer to the Events and Trailing Pointers menus.

4.1.39

Battery Freshness Mode

The Battery Freshness Mode (BFM) prevents discharging of the battery until the device is powered on and used for the first time and enhances the battery life. When the device is shipped, BFM is enabled to avoid the discharge of the battery power during shipping and storage.
During installation and commissioning, the BFM is automatically disabled when the device is powered on from an external power supply for the first time.
To activate the BFM mode, it is mandatory to disconnect the power source. By selecting the BFM mode, the device stops all the routine operations until the power supply is reconnected.
NOTE
If the device is temporarily connected to the auxiliary voltage only, activate the BFM mode every time before switching off the auxiliary voltage to avoid discharge of the battery.
To enable BFM in the device, proceed as follows:
In the Home Screen, press the BFM key. The Battery freshness menu appears.

Modbus Registers
Modbus is a field bus which is used to exchange data between programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and other devices. The communication protocol is based on the master/slave system over a serial line (RS485).
The Modbus master requests data from the slaves which are connected to the bus. The slaves answer to the request from the master. The device works as Modbus Slave and supports communication via RS485. Regard­less of the transmission mode, the communication cycle and contents remain the same. The message frame contains the following format:
Device address
Function code
8-bit data bytes
Error checking
The following Modbus data models are supported:
Bit type data
Discrete input
Coil
Register-type data
Input register
