#23

Write to Read-Only Register

Omron · MX2 Inverter RS-485 Connection Guide

What does #23 mean?

The Destination Device (inverter) rejected a write command because the targeted register is designated as read-only. This fault occurs when the Modbus command attempts to alter a parameter or status value that the inverter only permits to be read, not written, thereby protecting internal state and configurations.

Common Causes

  • The Modbus function code (e.g., 'Write to Holding Register') was used for a register that is defined as read-only in the inverter's Modbus communication data lists.
  • An incorrect register address (S+2) was specified, accidentally targeting a read-only register instead of a writable one.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Verify the Modbus function code (S+1 lower byte) and the Register address (S+2) in the CMND instruction operand. Ensure a read function (e.g., #03) is used for read-only registers.

  2. 2

    Refer to '8-9 Modbus Communication Data Lists' in the Multi-function Compact Inverter MX2 Series Type V1 User’s Manual (Cat. No. I585) to confirm the read/write permissions for the target register.
