I would like to display cold rooms temperatures on ABB automation system. York, supplier of Cold rooms has proposed to use the Modbus protocol defined as follows,
"The protocol used to communicate with the cold room controller is a subset of MODICON MODBUS (MB 1), only function codes 03 and 06 are supported.
Data are exchanged in ASCII slave mode (Cold room controller acts as slave) in the following format: Baudrate: 9600, Data bit : 7, Stop bit: 1, and Parity: Even."
ABB automation tell me that it is impossible to communicate because York do not support modbus function code 08 and this function is essential when ABB is the master in the communication and
unfortunately they cannot disable it.
York confirmed they cannot not be configured as master and cannot support function code 08.
Does any specialist here know if there a solution to fix this lack of communication between York and ABB? (Converters, software..)
