Modbus data mapping
6.3.1
Coils registers
A "coil" in Modbus is a single-bit binary data item which can be both read and written. In Vacon
100 the coils refer to some bits in the fieldbus control word." See page 34.

Discrete inputs
A "discrete input" in Modbus is a single-bit binary data item which is read-only. In Vacon 100
the discrete inputs refer to the fieldbus status word

Holding registers and input registers
An "input register" in Modbus is a 16-bit value which is read-only. A "holding register" in Mod-
bus is a 16-bit value which can be both read and written. Holding and input registers are ac-
cessed using different function codes, and the address ranges are different. In Vacon 100 the
same information can be accessed as input registers and holding registers, i.e. input register
X refers to the same 16-bit value as the holding register X.
The Modbus registers are mapped to the Vacon 100 drive as follows
