Shinko JCS/JCM/JCR/JCD-33A controller (needs C5 serial option)

Register map(s) for this device, with a note of how far each has been checked. Addresses are 0-based, as on the wire. Scale and byte order are confirmed only at the hardware-verified rung.

coherence-checked

Round-trips through a real Modbus stack with no overlapping addresses and a word-order-sensitive codec — the map is internally coherent and wire-decodable. Does NOT prove byte-order or scaling match a real device: the emulator is seeded from the map's own types, so a uniformly wrong byte-order still round-trips. Only hardware-verified confirms byte-order/scale on the wire.

link settings as documented (unverified): RTU/ASCII; default 9600 8E1; unit ID 0; FC 03,06; Instrument number setting range is 0 to 95. Parity and stop bits are selectable.

⚠ Turn the power supply to the instrument off before wiring or checking it. Working on or touching the terminal with the power switched on may result in severe injury or death due to electric shock. — Starkest reads only; we never write a control register.

bench facts as documented (unverified)
terminals13 YA(-), 14 YB(+), 15 SG
A/B polarityYA(-), YB(+)
terminationDo not connect the terminator to the communication line because each JCx-33A has built-in pull-up and pull-down resistors instead of a terminator.
shield/groundConnect only one end of the shielded wire to the FG terminal so that current cannot flow to the shielded wire.
wiring notesRecommended cable: OTSC-VB 2PX0.5SQ or equivalent (twisted pair cable).

⚠ disputed: inter_frame_delay_ms: 1000 — disputed by Shinko JCS/JCM/JCR/JCD-33A (C5) manual No.JC3CE11, which specifies standard Modbus RTU timing (data interval of 3.5 characters or less)

field reports — community-sourced, unverified (checked 2026-06-11)
  • The controller only supports reading 1 register per Modbus request (the number of data is fixed to 0001H). Attempting to read multiple registers in a single request will fail or return invalid data. [source]
  • confirmed: comms defaults (baud 9600, parity E, stop bits 1, unit ID 0) — confirmed by Shinko JCS/JCM/JCR/JCD-33A (C5) manual No.JC3CE11
  • confirmed: physical terminals (13 YA(-), 14 YB(+), 15 SG) and polarity — confirmed by Shinko JCS/JCM/JCR/JCD-33A (C5) manual No.JC3CE11
  • confirmed: register map addresses (sv1 @ 1, out1_proportional_band @ 4, control_output_off @ 55) — confirmed by Shinko JCS/JCM/JCR/JCD-33A (C5) manual No.JC3CE11
  • confirmed: memory write limit of 1,000,000 entries — confirmed by Shinko JCS/JCM/JCR/JCD-33A (C5) manual No.JC3CE11

The trust ladder

Each rung states what it proved and what it did not. Gray until proven; green is earned by hardware only.
