The recommended settings for multiple devices in a Modbus RTU network are 9600, 8, Even, 1. The MOP301 represents 1 unit load in a Modbus network.
Device address, baud rate, parity and stop bits can be set via:
- PCS10, Product Configuration Software and the appropriate configuration cable HA011018. The PCS10 can be downloaded free of charge from www.epluse.com/pcs10.
- Modbus protocol in the register 60001 (0x00) and 60002 (0x01).
See Application Note Modbus AN0103 (available at www.epluse.com/mop301).
The serial number in ASCII format is located at read register address 30001-30008 (16 bits per address). The firmware version is located at register address 30009 (bit 15…8 = major release; bit 7…0 = minor release). The sensor name is located at register address 30010.

Installation
Please note:
Continuous oil flow allows for short response time. In such installations, place the sensor with the perforated filter at least partially within the oil.
Mounting example with a ball valve (not included in the scope of supply).
For further mounting options, please refer to the user manual on our website: www.epluse.com/mop301
