- Modbus RTU Timing
- The Modbus RTU setting causes the radio to wait for an amount of time, “gathering” data before sending out the radio link.
- With a setting of 0 (Disabled), the radio will send data out its radio link as soon as the data is received into the serial port.
- With a setting of 1, the radio will wait for a number of slots equal to 2 times the Master Packet Repeat setting before sending the received data out the radio link. For example, if Master Packet Repeat = 3, the radio will wait for 6 slots, gathering ...
- With a setting of 2 and higher, the radio will wait for a number of slots calculated by the following formula:
- (Modbus RTU Setting + Master Packet Repeat Setting + 1) x 2
- For example, in a radio where the Modbus RTU setting = 2 and the Master Packet Repeat setting = 3, the radio will wait for (2+3+1) x 2, or 12 slots.

RS232 Pin Assignments
Pin Assignment Signal Definition
1 CD Carrier Detect Output Used to show an RF connection between transceivers.
2 TX Transmit Data Output Used to transmit data bits serially from the transceivers to the
system device.
3 RX Receive Data Input Used to receive data bits serially from the system device
connected to the transceivers.
4 DTR Data Terminal Ready Input Used only in transceivers in Point-to-Point Slave/Master
switchable mode or for DTR Connect.
5 GND Ground Signal return for all signal lines shared with Pin 9.
6 DSR Data Set Ready Output Always high when the radio is powered from the 2.5mm
power connector. Indicated power is on to the radio. Also,
this pin can be used for +12Volts when powering the
transceivers directly through the RS-232 port.
Note: This is not used on the OEM module.
7 RTS Request to Send Input The transceiver does not recognize RTS for flow control. RTS
is used as a control line in RTS/CTS mode.
8 CTS Clear to Send Output This signal is used to tell the system device connected to the
transceiver that the transceiver is ready to receive data.
When asserted, the transceiver will accept data, when
deasserted the transceiver will not accept data. This should
always be used for data rates above 38.4KB or there will be a
risk of lost data if an RF link is not very robust.
9 GND Ground Signal return for all signal lines shared with Pin 5.
