Rosemount 5300/5400 Series
1-30
SPECIFIC MODBUS 
HOST CONFIGURATION
The Remote Terminal Unit needs to be configured to communicate and 
correctly interpret data when reading input registers from the Rosemount 
5300/5400 transmitter. 
Baud Rate
The specified Baud Rates below are recommendations. If other Baud Rates 
are used, make sure that the 5300/5400 and the RTU are configured for the 
same communication speed.
Floating Point Format Code
RTU Data Type
The RTU Data Type specifies which configuration to use in the RTU in order 
for the RTU to correctly interpret a floating point number transmitted from the 
5300/5400 transmitter with Modbus.
Input Register Base Number
Data registers in the 5300/5400 transmitter with Modbus are numbered 
exactly as they are transmitted in the Modbus communication. Some RTUs 
use different naming conventions and to configure the RTU to poll the correct 
registers from the 5300/5400 Modbus, an Input Register Base Number is 
stated for each RTU respectively. E.g. if the input register base number is 1 
for the RTU, the 5300/5400 Modbus input register 1302 has to be entered in 
the RTU address as input register 1303.

case of Emerson Process 
Management ROC800 Series)
The Input Register Base Number needs to be added to the Input Register 
address of the 5300/5400 transmitter. In this case, register 1300 needs to 
have 1300 entered as the address.
