Autonics TK4S & Weintek MT8071iE “Modbus-RTU” Tutorial

Hello everyone!

Before that, plc247.com made 1 Series of instructions for using different devices to control connection of Omron Temperature Controller E5CC via “Modbus-RTU” Communication.

Today I would like to continue to guide you to control another temperature controller, Autonics TK4S-Series. And first I will use the Weintek MT8071iE HMI monitor to connect the TK4S control directly.

TK4S & MT8071iE “Wiring Diagram”

plc247.com use MT8071iE COM.3 port along with connectivity (8bit /Even /Stop bit = 1)

Autonics TK4S Communication Setting

To set Modbus communication parameters for TK4S we need to go to Parameters 4 (Par4) of the clock to set the following parameters:

+ PAr 4

• AdrS = 1 (Address Slave)
• bPS = 9.6 (Baudrate)
• Prty = EvEn (Parity Check)
• StP = 1 (Stop bit)
• rSy.t = 20 (Comm. Response time)

Register Setting Temperature Address

+ Function: 06

+ Setting Value (SV) Address: 0000 (hex)

Register for Temperature Monitoring

+ Funtion: 04

+ Present Value (PV) Address: 3E8 (hex)
