Menu Local bus activation, which is essential for starting the communication between module and Ekip Touch, is
available in the Settings menu (page 130).
Two areas are activated if Ekip Touch detects the module correctly:
• information area in the About-Modules menu, containing the software version and serial number of the module
• specific configuration area in the Settings-Modules menu, where the following communication parameters
can be configured
Parameter Description Default
Module address; 1 to 247 range available
Serial address IMPORTANT: devices connected to the same network must 247 / 246 (1)
have different addresses
Data transmission speed; 3 options are available: 9600 bit/s, 19200
Baudrate 19200 bit/s
bit/s, 38400 bit/s
Defines the stop and parity bit; 4 options are available:
• 8,E,1 = 8 data bits, 1 EVEN parity bit, 1 STOP bit
Physical
protocol • 8,O,1 = 8 data bits, 1 ODD parity bit, 1 STOP bit 8,E,1
• 8,N,2 = 8 data bits, no parity bit, 2 STOP bits
• 8,N,1 = 8 data bits, no parity bit, 1 STOP bit

(1) 247 default of the Ekip Com Modbus RTU module; 246 default of the Ekip Com Modbus RTU Redundant
module

Remote configurations The operating configuration can be changed from slave to master via the service connector (via Ekip Connect)
or via system bus communication so as to integrate the module into an interactive data exchange network
(see description of Ekip Com Hub, page 216).
IMPORTANT:
• In the Master configuration, the module does not allow data exchange as in the normal
Slave function
• the presence of several masters in the same network can cause faulty operation

Remote information Certain additional information concerning the version and status of the module is available via the service
connector (via Ekip Connect) or by communication via system bus; the information includes: HW and Boot
version, CRC status (correctness of the SW in the module).
