### Guidelines - Software creation

The following function codes (FC) are supported: 3, 4 (additionally: 2, 4, 16)

For write operations on 32-bit data points (2 consecutive Modbus registers), FC16 must be used. No further registers may be written in this telegram.

Format of 32-bit data points: Register+0 (LSW): H-byte L-byte Register+1 (MSW): H-byte L-byte

FC 02 may only be used for register 105 (Malfunction and service information, start address = 1664).&#x20;

* For addressing, use the address information, not the register addresses.&#x20;
* For unused registers, the value 65535 (dec.) is read / written&#x20;
* Modbus addresses 1 - 247 can be set directly on the valve.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
All writable register addresses > 100 are persistent and must not be written cyclically
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.powerio.com/hub/codesys-hvac/en/hvac-modbus-library/functionblocks/belimo/belimo_epxxxx_fw_3_0_8_mod.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
