Description

  • Working voltage: DC 5 - 28V
  • Working current: 4.3 - 42mA (related to the brightness of the digital tube)
  • MODBUS RTU protocol, 03 read command, 06 or 16 write command.
  • Device address: 1~247, default 1, by modifying the 485 address, up to 247 modules can be used in cascade (more than 32, please use RS485 repeater)
  • Digital tube color: red
  • Digital tube tube digits: 6 digits 0.36 inches / 4 digits 0.56 inches
  • Communication interface: RS-485 (Modbus RTU)
  • Function: It can display numbers, ASCII characters, letters, floating-point numbers, negative numbers, etc., and the brightness can be adjusted; it supports electronic label function, and the initial display content can be set after power-on

6Used in combination with register 7 (0xFFFFFFFF), cannot be used alone.

High 4 bits of the high byte (0xFFFFFFFF):
0 indicates a positive number, 1 indicates a negative number
Lower 4 bits of the high byte (0xFFFFFFFF):
specify the number of decimal places, ranging from 0 to 5

Together with register 7, they specify the data to be displayed 0xFFFFFFFF)
(for data above 65535, three bytes are needed; this byte indicates the highest 8 bits of the data.

Note: This register should be used together with register 7. To write data to these two registers, use the write multiple holding register (16 function code) when displaying data.

7Display data. Can be used in combination with register 6 (0xFFFFFFFF), or separately.

(1) Together with register 6, this register indicates the data to be displayed (the data is represented by 3 bytes, 0xFFFFFFFF), the high byte of this register indicates the middle 8 bits of the data (0xFFFFFF), and the low byte indicates the lowest 8 bits of the data (0xFFFFFF).

The high byte comes first and the low byte comes second. (0xFFFF)

Note: This register is used in conjunction with register 6 to write data to these two registers using the Write Multiple Holding Register (16 function code) when displaying data.

(2) When used independently, write a hexadecimal number into the register, and the digital tube will be converted into a decimal number for display.
R/W
8Blink control register. Each bit represents one digital tube; the lowest bit represents the first digital tube, and so on.
0: no blinking (default), 1: Blinking
Note: This parameter is not saved when power is lost.
R/W
9Digital tube brightness level, 1..8, 6 digits default 4, 4 digits default 8.
Note: This parameter is saved upon powering down.
R/W
10Display content is saved.
0: No saving (default), 1: Save all digital tube display content
Note: this parameter is saved when powered off.
R/W
11Digital tube power-on initial display mode setting.
0: Display “0”; (default), 1: Display the RS485 address of the module, 2: Display of saved data.
Note: This parameter is saved at power down.
