# Single Bit Data Read/Write Commands (01 / 05) – Common for HMI

> **Purpose and Use Cases**: Certain Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) only support the 05 Write Command to send a signal to reset the accumulated total. Additionally, some HMIs require support for the 01 Read Command to verify that the sensor is functioning correctly.

### Function Code 01 Example – Single Bit Read

{% hint style="info" %}
This command **does not reset** the C02.Del.Total (Totalizer Clear) option. It is used for **reading a single bit via HMI** (01/05). When the 01 command is sent correctly, the slave responds by returning the requested bit status only.
{% endhint %}

### Master Sends 01 (TX) Example

```
TX: 01 01 00 0A 00 01 A4 0E
```

* **Slave Address:** 01 (Flow meter address)
* **Function Code:** 01 (Read 1 bit)
* **Starting Address:** 02 01 (C02.Del.Total memory address)
* **Quantity:** 00 01 (Read 1 bit)
* **CRC:** A4 0E (Error check)

### Slave Response 01 (RX) Example

```
RX: 01 01 01 00 51 88
```

* **Slave Address:** 01
* **Function Code:** 01 (Read)
* **Data:** 01 00 (Bit value, slave is online and responding)
* **CRC:** 51 88

## Function Code 05 Example – Single Bit Write (Trigger Totalizer Clear)

{% hint style="info" %}
This command **activates** the C02.Del.Total clear option, immediately resetting the totalizer to zero.
{% endhint %}

### Master Sends (TX) Example

```
TX: 01 05 02 01 FF 00 DC 42
```

* **Slave Address:** 01
* **Function Code:** 05 (Write single register)
* **Starting Address:** 02 01 (C02.Del.Total memory address)
* **Data:** FF 00 (Trigger clear)
* **CRC:** DC 42

### Slave Response (RX) Example

```
RX: 01 05 02 01 FF 00 DC 42
```

* **Slave Address:** 01
* **Function Code:** 05
* **Starting Address:** 02 01
* **Data:** FF 00 (Echoes successful write)
* **CRC:** DC 42
