COM1 Serial Communication

The STR581 has serial COM1 (RS485) on which the Modbus RTU slave protocol

is active. This allows the device to be connected to a supervisory system or

more generally to a Modbus RTU master device. Each device will respond to

a the Master only if it contains the same address as the one contained in the

parameter Serial COM1 -> Slave Address.

Allowed addresses range from 1 to 254, and there must be no devices with

the same address on the same line. Address 255 can be used by the master

to communicate with any connected device, regardless of its address, while

with address 0 all devices receive the command, but no response is expected

(broadcast mode).

22 – STR581 – User manual

The STR581 can introduce a delay (in milliseconds) before responding to the master’s request. This delay must be set in the parameter Serial COM1 -> Delay responsive. For the complete list of parameters related to serial COM1, refer to the “Serial COM1” section in the “Configuration Parameter Table” chapter. NB: Changes to the device configuration parameters are also possible via serial COM1.
ATTENTION: each time the parameters change, the device saves the value in EEPROM memory (100000 write cycles). This means that continuous writing with ever-changing values of the parameters can damage the EEPROM memory after exceeding the allowed number of writing cycles. NB: Changes made to word other than those shown in the table below may cause malfunction of the device.

Notes for parameter access

Access: data accessible via Modbus protocol that refer to parameters or 32-bit

data (2 words) must be modified by writing two consecutive Modbus addresses

(lowest address first and then highest address). It is not sufficient to write only

one word even if the other should remain unchanged.

Alphanumeric strings are stored in the relevant parameters, using the ascii codes of the characters used. Each parameter (32 bits) contains 4 characters (each character 8 bits), so to store strings with more than 4 characters, multiple contiguous parameters are used, based on the number of characters used, according to the following scheme:

Stored string “ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP”

Parameter number Parameter n Parameter n+1 Parameter n+2 Parameter n+3

iOS®

Scan the Qr-Code to download the App on Google Play Store:

STR581 is supported by the App MyPixsys: using an ANDROID smartphone with NFC connection it is possible to program the device without using a dedicated equipment*.
*With iOS App, communication between the smartphone and the device is through the RFID Programmer > Bluetooth (2000.35.099), which must be placed on the device’s NFC connection point. MyPixsys allows to read and view data already on the device, modify its parameters and setpoints, save and send (via email) complete configurations, reload backups and factory settings. Procedure: · Make sure that the NFC sensor of the Android® phone is enabled and that there are no metallic materials between the smartphone and the device (e.g., aluminum covers or magnetic stands); – Place the NFC antenna of the smartphone / RFID Programmer > Bluetooth at the antenna of the device (located on the front); – Enable system sounds on your phone, as the notification sound confirms that the device has correctly been detected The App interface is provided with four tabs: SCAN, DATA, WRITE, EXTRA. Select the first tab “SCAN” to read data stored into the internal memory of the device; place the smartphone in contact with its frontal panel, making sure that the phone’s antenna matched with that of the device. Once detected the device, the App emits a notification sounds and proceeds with the model identification and the reading of the parameters. The graphic interface shows the advancement and switches to the second tab “DATA”. It is now possible to move the smartphone away from the controller to make the required modifications more easily.
