RKI Beacon 3200 gas monitor

Register map(s) for this device, each at the trust rung it earned. Addresses are 0-based as on the wire; word order and scaling are only confirmed at the hardware-verified rung.

interop-verified

Read + decoded cleanly over a real network vs an independent third-party Modbus test server (transport and framing; reads are remapped into the server's register window, so the map's own addresses are NOT exercised). Does NOT prove word order/scaling against the actual device.

link settings as documented (unverified): RTU/TCP; default 19200 8E?; unit ID 11; FC 03,06; Supports Modbus RTU (2-wire) and Modbus TCP/IP on port 502. Supports up to 32 Modbus detectors without a repeater. Slave ID range is 1 to 247.

bench facts as documented (unverified)

terminals	RS-485 Modbus Terminal Strips (Master and Slave) are located in the lower left corner of the main PCB.
A/B polarity	A is TX/RX+, B is TX/RX-, C is Common
termination	Ground and termination jumpers on board. 120 Ohm, 3/4W termination resistor required for the last T3A/VOC Pro slave device.
connector	Terminal Strips and RJ45 LAN Connector
shield/ground	Field ground stud on the bottom right corner of the main PCB is typically used to connect the shield drain wire.
wiring notes	Supports a max cable length of 4,000 feet with recommended impedance of 120 ohms.
broadcast	supported
protocol notes	When the Beacon 3200 is in any operating menu other than normal operation, the channel registers simply hold their existing values. Once the Beacon 3200 returns to normal operation, the channel registers are updated each second.
identification notes	The warmup screen shows the instrument's firmware version.
power	100V/115V/220V AC, 50/60Hz or 24V DC ± 10%
environment	Indoor or outdoor (Type 4X), 2000m max altitude, -40°C to 40°C ambient, 80% max relative humidity, Overvoltage Category II, Pollution Degree 2. Cannot be mounted in direct sunlight.
certifications	QPS, CSA

The trust ladder

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

generated — A prompt produced it. Unproven — anyone can regenerate this.
structure-verified — Decode path is structurally sound (addresses, widths, finite values). Does NOT prove word order or scaling.
interop-verified — Read + decoded cleanly over a real network vs an independent third-party Modbus test server (transport and framing; reads are remapped into the server's register window, so the map's own addresses are NOT exercised). Does NOT prove word order/scaling against the actual device.
simulator-verified — Decoded correctly against a protocol emulator seeded with known-true values — catches word-order/scaling errors vs the emulator, not the physical device.
hardware-verified x1 — Matched a real device with operator-attested readings as ground truth — the only rung that confirms word order + scaling on the wire.

Have a device that isn't here? Upload its register map — generation is free, and the connector earns its rung by being proven, not claimed.

Need it proven on your own device? Hardware verification — if it doesn't verify, you don't pay.

Building a platform? License the verified library — machine-readable maps, firmware matrix, API access.
