FC 43 (2Bh) Encapsulated Interface Transport

This function facilitates simple access of the CANopen object dictionary. Further details can be found in the following documentation:

  1. MODBUS APPLICATION PROTOCOL SPECIFICATION V1.1b3, Date: 26.04.2014, Version: 1.1b3
  2. CiA 309 Draft Standard Proposal - Access from other networks - Part 2: Modbus/TCP mapping V1.3, Date: 30.07.2015, Version: 1.3
Note: For the messages of the Encapsulated Interface Transport, another byte sequence applies in part, see chapter General.

Definition of the request and response:

Name Length Example/number range
Slave address 1 byte
Function code 1 byte 2Bh (43d)
MEI type 1 byte 0Dh (13d)
Protocol options Range 2 to 5 bytes
Address and data range N bytes
CRC 2 bytes

Protocol options Range

Name Length Example/number range
Protocol control 1 to 2 bytes See description
Reserved 1 byte Always 0
(Optional) Counter byte 1 byte
(Optional) Network ID 1 byte
(Optional) Encoded data 1 byte

Protocol control:

The "Protocol control" field contains the flags that are needed for controlling the message protocols. The bytes of the "Protocol control" field are defined as follows if the "extended" flag was set (the second byte is otherwise omitted):

The most significant bit (MSB) is bit 0 for "protocol control" byte 1 and bit 8 for "protocol control" byte 2. The least significant bit (LSB) is bit 7 for "protocol control" byte 1 and bit 15 for "protocol control" byte 2.

Bit Name Description
0 "Extended" flag This bit is used if the object dictionary data set is larger than would fit in a Modbus command. The data set then spans over multiple Modbus messages; each message contains part of the data set. "0" = No multiple message transaction or the end of the multiple message transaction. "1" = Part of a multiple message transaction.
1 Extended protocol control Length of the protocol control, the value "0" indicates a length of 1 byte, the value "1" indicates a length of 2 bytes.
2 Counter byte option This bit is set to "1" to indicate that the "counter byte" field is used in this message. If this bit is set to "0", the "counter byte" field does not exist in this message.
3 and 4 Reserved 0
5 Network ID option Not supported, must be "0".
6 Encoded data option Not supported, must be "0".
7 Access flag This bit indicates the access method of the requested command. "0" = read, "1" = write.
8 to 15 Reserved 0

Address and data range

The address and data range is defined in the following table:

Name Byte size and byte order Example / range
Node-ID 1 byte 01h to 7Fh
Index 1 byte, high 0000h to FFFFh
1 byte, low
Subindex 1 byte 00h to FFh
Start address 1 byte, high 0000h to FFFFh
1 byte, low
Number of data values 1 byte, high 0000h to 00FDh
1 byte, low
Write/read data n bytes The data are encoded as described in chapter General.

Example:

To read object 6042h:00h (16-bit value), the following message must be sent by the master (all values are in hexadecimal notation, the slave ID of the controller is "5").

Request
Response

Shown as an additional example below, a sequence of Modbus messages is sent from the master to the slave to rotate the motor in "Velocity" mode:

Set 6060 = "02h" (Velocity mode)
