ABB ABB ACS880 Option Modules Modbus RTU template

ABB ACS880 Option Modules

Option module parameters of the ABB ACS880: extra I/O, master/follower link and encoder interfaces.

The ABB ACS880 takes option modules for extra digital and analog I/O, a fiber optic master/follower link and encoder feedback. This Modbus RTU template holds the parameters of those modules, so you can read their inputs and status and change their settings from ModbusCloud next to the drive template.

Loading registers…

Send your device list

If a device is not in the library yet, we build the template for free as soon as we have the register data.

Number of installations (optional)

Use cases

  • Show the extra analog inputs of an FIO-11 or FAIO-01 module, such as a pressure or level signal, on a dashboard next to the drive values.
  • Get an email when the module status no longer reports the fitted module, so a loose or failed option card is found before the process stops.
  • Follow the encoder module temperature input to watch the motor temperature over time.
  • Check the master/follower communication status of drives that share a load, and alert when a follower drops out.
  • Change a relay delay or an analog input scaling remotely without a visit to the drive.

Installation

  1. Add the ABB ACS880 template as described there; this template uses the same XD2D connection, node address and serial settings.

  2. In ModbusCloud, add a second Modbus device (RTU) with the same address on the ModbusCloud Gateway and import this template.

  3. Read Module 1 Type, Module 2 Type and Module 3 Type and the encoder module types to see which options are fitted.

  4. Delete the registers of slots and modules you do not use, and check that the values of your modules look plausible.

Things to watch for

Several registers return 0 or an error.

A parameter only exists when the matching module is fitted and selected in the module type parameter. Empty slots and other module types give no useful value. Keep the registers of the modules you have and delete the rest from the device in ModbusCloud.

Why does one register have two or three names?

The ACS880 reuses some parameter numbers for different functions depending on the module type, for example a digital delay on an FIO-01 and an analog value on an FIO-11. The register name lists all meanings. These shared registers are read raw: divide a delay by 100 for seconds and an analog value by 1000 for mA or V.

Can I write the module settings from ModbusCloud?

Yes, writable parameters can be changed, but only after writing registers is switched on for your gateway. The drive keeps a value written over Modbus only after 96.07 Parameter save manually. Encoder changes take effect after Encoder Parameter Refresh, and some settings cannot be changed while the drive runs.

The 32-bit values look far too large.

The drive sends 32-bit values low word first by default (58.34 LO-HI). If 58.34 was set to HI-LO, the words arrive the other way round. Set it back to LO-HI, or change the byte order of the registers to ABCD in the portal.
