Introduction
Modbus is an Open protocol
It is a simple master–slave protocol
severely limited for electrical substation communication. The basic
protocol for PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) connection
It is used by local serial connection, is not suited for Telemetry.
Telemetry is an automated communications process by which
measurements and other data are collected at remote or inaccessible
points and transmitted to receiving equipment for monitoring.
Optional interface: RS-232, RS-422, RS-485

Introduction
applies to layers 1, 2 and 7 of the OSI stack
relatively slow in comparison with other buses
wide acceptance among instrument manufacturers and users
• Fixed characteristics:
frame format, frame, sequences, handling of communications errors ,
exception conditions , the functions performed
• Stable characteristics:
transmission medium, transmission characteristics, and transmission mode.
4
Modbus Addressing
To communicate with a slave device, the master sends a message
containing
Device Address
Function Code
Data
Error Check
5
• Number from 0 to 247
Data functions
7
The MODBUS protocol provides frames for the
transmission of messages between master and slaves

Modbus infrastructure
Serial Modbus
Modbus Plus
Ethernet TCP/IP

Modbus Serial
RTU – • referred to as Modbus-B
for Modbus binary
compact
and faster
10
RTU Mode
the same baud rate in messaging make effective characters, so
operating burden increase
RTU has 1 byte string and ASCII has 4 bit string
11
Serial Modbus Operation
host device transmits a command, attached device(s) respond. Each device has a
unique address assigned to it. Each device is configured for the same protocol
emulation of Modbus.

Typical Applications of Modbus Plus in
Substation Automation
Interlocking between PLCs (e.g. bus restoration)
Control and monitoring of protective relay I/O from PLCs
Sharing of analog data among IEDs
Acquisition of data by a network-resident host computer
Transfer of status and control between power plant and substation
PLCs
Uploading and downloading of PLC programs
Download of configurations and settings to protective relays and
other IEDs

CoAP
Constrained Application Protocol
"A specialized web transfer protocol for use with constrained
nodes and constrained networks in the Internet of Things."
REST-based web transfer protocol
manipulates Web resources using the same methods as HTTP:
GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE
subset of HTTP functionality re-designed for low power
embedded devices such as sensors (for IoT and M2M)
CoAP
TCP overhead is too high and its flow control is not
appropriate for short-lived transactions
UDP has lower overhead and supports multicast
CoAP
Four message types:
Confirmable – requires an ACK
Non-confirmable – no ACK needed
Acknowledgement – ACKs a Confirmable
Reset - indicates a Confirmable message has been received but
context is missing for processing
CoAP
CoAP provides reliability without using TCP as transport
protocol
CoAP enables asynchronous communication
e.g., when CoAP server receives a request which it cannot
handle immediately, it first ACKs the reception of the message
and sends back the response in an off-line fashion
Also supports multicast and congestion control
