Overview

UNOlite is an indoor air quality monitor to measure the space temperature / humidity / CO2 / PM2.5 / PM10 / PM1 / TVOC and expose the measurements directly onto a BACnet MS/TP or Modbus RTU network. Moreover, the measurements are also accessible with UNO apps through BLE or UNO web through Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi model). Please refer to UNOlite official website for more information. This document is primarily concerned how to add UNOlite to Modbus/RTU network.

Hardware Interface

Buttons 

Key Description
Hardware reset Push this button will trigger a power cycle.
 

 

Factory reset

After booting, press this button three times within 2 seconds will trigger factory reset. The values below will be restored to default:

s   Modbus baudrate

s   BACnet saved mac address

s   Wi-Fi MQTT broker setting (Wi-Fi model)

NOTE: /t’s recommended to use a paper clip to press the keys.

Terminal block 

Terminal Description
V+ Power input. For more information, please refer to production specification.
V- Power input. For more information, please refer to production specification.
A+ RS485(+) data pin. For Modbus/BACnet network.
B- RS485(-) data pin. For Modbus/BACnet network.
 

GND

Ground terminal. Each RS485 driver in an installation is recommended to connect to the same ground to get a common reference.

DIP switch 

DIPs Description ON OFF
1 – 6 Refer to the later sections for the definition of each pin   n
 

7

BACnet mode switch. ON : BACnet mode OFF : Modbus mode    

n

8 RS485 terminator resistor (120 ohm)   n

NOTE The dips should be adjusted to proper position in power off state. Adjust the dips, then power on device.

Modbus Mode
UNOlite follows Modbus over serial line specification and will run on Modbus/RTU mode if the 7th pin is set to OFF state. The definition of the dips in Modbus mode as listed below:

DIP Description ON OFF
1 Modbus slave address (check address table)   n
2 Modbus slave address (check address table)   n
3 Modbus slave address (check address table)   n
4 Modbus slave address (check address table)   n
5 Modbus slave address (check address table)   n
  • NOTE: The definitions of dip are different from Modbus mode. Please make sure which mode is chosen.
  • NOTE: Pin6 is not defined in Modbus mode

Serial Configuration

UNOlite can directly connect to a controller with RS485 interface, up to 32 UNOlite devices can be joined to a Modbus serial bus.DELTA-uno-Lite-Modbus-fig-2

NOTE: Suggestion to use 22AWG shielded twisted pair cable to connect devices in sequence

Default Serial Configuration: 

  • Baud: 9600
  • Data-Bit: 8
  • Parity: None
  • Stop-Bit: 1

Note: perform factory reset to restore default value if the configuration is missing

Modbus Slave Address
The DIP pins 1~5 represent for binary number 0~31, pin 1 is most significant bit (MSB) and pin 5 is least significant bit (LSB). Notice that Modbus slave address starts from 208, therefore, UNOlite can be configured address from 208 to 239:
