4. Modbus Factory Configuration Connection differences between Modbus and MX150/250 Factory Configuration For MX150/250 factory configuration: 1. Connect TD(A) of 50W-1208 to Pin 2 (socket J4) of MX150/250 Controller via PS5133. 2. Connect TD(B) of 50W-1208 to Pin 1 (socket J4) of MX150/250 Controller via PS5133. For Modbus configuration/communication: 1. Connect TD(A) of 50W-1208 to the upper position via PS5140. 2. Connect TD(B) of 50W-1208 to the lower position via PS5140.

10. Troubleshooting Technique of Troubleshooting Make sure Network option is ON For MX150/250 -- can be set in user menu For MX200 Must be set in factory mode Slide 21 of 23
10. Troubleshooting Technique of Troubleshooting Make sure cable is less than 3000ft Otherwise add repeater. Perform local communication 1 master to 1 slave device Perform global communication a. Configuration via 50P-1111 b. EnerVista: b.1 Setup b.2 Plug-n-play Have spare (good) devices (I.e. Converter, Modbus card) Slide 22 of 23
11. Q&A Terminating Resistor For noise cancellation Noise issue due to EMI effect (I.e. Motor drive) Typically chassis ground one (master) end of shield but not both. (use Belden shielded pair) Network length up to 3000 feet More than 3000 feet will need a repeater Need to understand the register map Modbus connection is polarity specific LonWork s connection is non-polarity specific Conversion of Half-to-full duplex or vice versa: Use 50W-1225 Slide 23 of 23
