Ex2000 fault code 703(EX41FAIL)
Did you read the manual about this 703 alarm? Maybe there is in the manual what to do when this alarm occurs. You can also contact the company that supplied you the gas turbine, maybe they can help onsite.

SICK WL30-04 Replacement
These are the extra rugged types of Sick and 300 euro's is quite a normal price for them. It is indeed AC powered and most often they switch with a switchover relay contact, but it can also be there it is acting as a NPN/PNP proximity sensor. But my take with most Sicks is that they most often...

Meanwell DRS-240 comms with ControlByWeb X404
Maybe it is 32 bit (2 16 bit words combined). Read 1 word higher and 1 lower and see what is in those registers (if it makes sense at all) It can also be signed iso unsigned. Is it not in the manual, see the modbus addresses list of the device

Late bloomer to MODBUS have lots of silly questions

Late bloomer to MODBUS have lots of silly questions
John is right on points 1, 2 and 3. Extra about point 3: some slaves take time to switch from receiving to transmitting and visa versa. There is often a setting in your driver for that. In the pro-face driver that I use for modbus it is the wait to send setting. So the master activates the bus...

Late bloomer to MODBUS have lots of silly questions
Welcome to the Modbus community. Is it one of the most simple and reliable fieldbus interfaces that I know of. I'm working with it successfully now for about 15 years implementing all kinds of catering equipment (deep fat frying furnaces, grillplates) and also for wireless haccp datalogging...

CT BOX (Current Transformer Box) in Electromotor
That was also my first idea. But for some kind of reason many people here on the forum are afraid of contacting the (original) supplier of the equipment.

CT BOX (Current Transformer Box) in Electromotor
is the CT box the connection terminals for the motors? Normally "CT" means current transformers. What can be, is that you have a 2 speed motor (Dahlander windings). In that case you wire it in the high speed connection and just drive it with the VFD with a ramp up so the low speed windings are...

depends.....does the CT box (I'm guessing that it measures current, since you supply only very sparse information) measure true RMS?
