1. Overview ​

This manual describes the Modbus RTU communication commands for the Y301-880 I/O module.

ModelDIDOAIDescription
Y301-880880Eight inputs + eight relays

Frame format: [slave address][function code][data][CRC low][CRC high]

The examples below use slave address 0x01. Replace it with the actual device address and recalculate the CRC.

3. Modbus Register Map (Modbus Address Only) ​

3.1 Digital Input (DI) - Function Code 0x02 ​

DI30x0002
DI40x0003
DI50x0004
DI60x0005
DI70x0006
DI80x0007

Return value: 0 = inactive, 1 = active.

3.2 Digital Output (DO) - Function Code 0x01/0x05/0x0F ​

For function code 0x05, write 0x0000 to open the NO contact or 0xFF00 to close it. Function code 0x0F uses packed bits: 0 = open, 1 = closed.

5. Parameter Configuration ​

5.1 Change the Slave Address ​

Runtime address = configured address + DIP offset. Read 0x002A for the runtime address and 0x002B for the DIP offset.

Set the slave address to 5:

text
Request:  01 06 00 3E 00 05 28 05
Response: 01 06 00 3E 00 05 28 05

The address change takes effect after reboot. Include the DIP offset in the runtime address, then reconnect using the new address.

5.2 Change the Baud Rate ​

Common baud-rate values:

Baud RateValue
96000x00002580
192000x00004B00
384000x00009600
1152000x0001C200

Restart the device after changing the address or serial parameters, then reconnect with the new settings.

5.3 Restore Factory Defaults ​

Hold the Reload button for 3-15 seconds to restore:

  • Slave address -> 1
  • Baud rate -> 9600
  • All parameters -> factory defaults

6. Automation Rules ​

The Y301-880 supports DI -> DO automation. Up to 16 rules are supported, with 2 rules per DO.

6.1 Automation Register Map ​

Rules start at address 0x0080. Each rule uses 8 registers (16 bytes).

OffsetFieldDescription
+0ModeRule type (see table below)
+1ActionMode-specific; see the mode table
+2DO indexTarget relay, starting from 1
+3Trigger indexSource DI, starting from 1
+4-5Parameter 1Mode-dependent, 32-bit
+6-7Parameter 2Mode-dependent, 32-bit

6.2 Rule Modes ​

ModeNameAction / Parameters
0DisabledDisable the rule
1DI follow0 = inverse; 1 = forward; select DI
2Pulse output0 = normally open; 1 = normally closed; parameter 1 = pulse duration (ms)
3Delayed control0 = delay opening commands; 1 = delay closing commands; 2 = delay both; parameter 1 = delay (ms)
4Timed change after reboot0 = open; 1 = close; 2 = toggle; parameter 1 = delay (ms)
5Cyclic change0 = open first; 1 = close first; parameters 1/2 = open/closed durations (ms)
6Button input0 = open; 1 = close; 2 = toggle; parameter 1 = minimum active duration (ms)
7Scheduled onceAction at Unix timestamp in parameter 1 (s)
8Scheduled repeatingParameter 1 = Unix timestamp (s); parameter 2 = interval (ms)
9Daily scheduleParameter 1 = seconds since start of day (0-86399)
14Delayed DI follow0 = inverse; 1 = forward; parameter 1 = delay (ms)
15 / 16 / 17Logic AND / OR / XORParameter 1 = DO mask; parameter 2 = DI mask; choose the action for the selected mode

Mode 2 responds to an output-control command. Mode 3 delays an output-control command; mode 14 follows a DI change after a delay. Use channels fitted on the model and the configuration tool matched to its firmware.

Write the current Unix time to 0x0055-0x0056 before using modes 7-9. Devices without a hardware RTC require the time after each reboot.

Modes 10-13 require AI and do not apply to Y301-880.

7. Troubleshooting ​

SymptomCauseSolution
No responseWrong address or baud rateCheck the configured address, baud rate, and serial format. Broadcast processing is disabled by default; address 0 is not a response test.
CRC errorWiring issue or interferenceCheck RS485 polarity and add termination resistors
DO does not switchLoad exceeds ratingReduce the load and verify contact ratings
DI always reads 0Wiring errorCheck COM/DI wiring and input voltage
