3.4.1.3. Function Field

The function code field of a message frame contains eight bits. Valid codes are in the range of 1-255. When a message is sent from a client to a server device, the function code field tells the server what kinds of action to perform.

Code Length Description

01 Read Relay Output Status Obtain current status of Relay Output 02 Read Digital Input (DI) Status Obtain current status of Digital Input 03 Read Data Obtain current binary value in one or more registers 05 Control Single Relay Output Force Relay to a state of On or OFF

16 Write Multiple Registers Place specific value into a series of consecutive multiple registers

3.4.1.4. Data Field

The data field is constructed using sets of two hexadecimal digits, in the range of 00 to FF. The data field of messages sent from a master to slave contains additional information which the slave must use to take the action defined by the function code. This can include information such as the register addresses, the quantity of registers to query and the count of the actual number of data bytes. For example, if the master requests a slave to read a group of holding registers (function code 03), the data field specifies the starting register and how many registers are to be read.

If the master needs to write data (function code 10 hexadecimal) to a group of registers in the slave, the data field specifies the starting register, how many registers to write, the count of data bytes to follow in the data field and the data to be written into the registers.
