‌‌Register: Length of 2 Byte or 16bit which is unit length of memory in Modbus RTU.

‌Byte: 8 bit length

Definition and function of memory

Modbus memory is divided into two categories, read-only and read-write.

Read-only type is mainly for flow meter status related memory, such as instantaneous flow rate. This is also the most commonly used memory. Detail information in following page:

Read-write memory is mainly to set-up parameters such as pipe diameter, and to reset variables, such as set zero on the cumulative flow. Read-write memory is only readable by using instruction 03. You can only change one parameter at a time with the write operation. If the length of the target register is 1, please use instruction 06. If the length is 2 registers, please use instruction 30. Please see read-write memory detail page below:
