In the most typical use case, the Data Relay acts as a “Modbus Master” to a non-EMIT panel system. Using some defined data tables, the Data Relay will request data values such as suction pressure, oil temp, etc., from the panel system via RS-485 Modbus or Modbus/TCP. | |||

Each Modbus data value is configured by specifying a target Register and Slave ID of the source of the information (typically the panel annunciator). For example, the suction pressure might be present at Slave ID 10, Register 41001. The Data Relay will request for Register 41001 from Slave ID 10, the annunciator will respond with the data, and the Data Relay will store this response as “Suction Pressure”. | |||
This data is accumulated into standard blocks of information and then sent to EMIT Data Services via cell connection. This also includes run status information for the purposes of sending callouts.

Wiring
A general wiring diagram of all possible connections is shown below. In most cases some subset of these connections will be used.
Configuration
There are three spreadsheet files that define how an EDR communicates with another panel. These are called the modbus master table, the run status table, and the fault code (or shutdown code) table.
These three files can be saved and loaded to different EDRs when the panels are the same.
Creating a new configuration is described in the page EDR Field Configuration
Additionally parts of the tables can be edited through the wifi console. See EDR Wi-Fi Console
