We would therefore need to access Modbus holding register 16 0 0010 1640 to implicitly access this drive parameter As mentioned above direct mapping only applies when attempting to access a Modbus register that is not already defined in the point database If a specific Modbus register is defined in the point database then the point database mapping overrides direct mapping and the actual ASD register accessed will depend on the point s configured ASD parameter number 36 13 4 3 Universal Access Registers Until now our discussions regarding how to access ASD registers have primarily revolved around the method of mapping ASD registers to unique Modbus TCP IP registers For most control monitoring applications this is not a problem However Toshiba ASDs contain many more accessible parameters than just the control status parameters typically accessed during day to day operations Often these seldom used parameters are configuration parameters that are typically set only during system commissioning and then never accessed again In some applications it may be desirable to take a snapshot of all configuration parameters on an ASD via the Modbus TCP IP network in order to create a backup file of the drive s settings in case the drive needs to be replaced at some future time Clearly it would not be feasible or even desirable to create a point database that explicitly mapped all drive registers to unique Modbus TC

19. P IP registers It may be possible to take advantage of the ETH 100 s direct mapping method to access all of the ASD registers but some ASD register numbers may have already been defined as Modbus register numbers in the point database thereby forcing explicit point mapping to override implicit direct mapping To solve this problem the ETH 100 defines two Universal Access Registers per drive channel which together allow asynchronous access to any ASD parameter on any ASD channel at any time The two Universal Access Registers are reserved by the ETH 100 so they cannot be programmed as a point s Modbus holding register number in the point database The Universal Access Register numbers and functions are indicated in Table 2 Table 2 Universal Access Registers Modbus TCP IP Register Function 9998 ASD register number 9999 Read write data To use this feature first write the ASD register number that you wish to access to Modbus register 9998 Then any subsequent read write accesses to Modbus register 9999 will be redirected to the ASD register number defined in register 9998 In this manner any ASD register can be accessed simply by changing the ASD register number held in Modbus register 9998 and then performing a read or write command on the read write data register 9999 For example let s say we would like to read a group of ASD configuration registers starting at register 100 from Modbus TCP IP unit identi
