Vlinx MESR9xx Modbus Gateway

Character Timeout

The character timeout is the maximum time the gateway allows between characters from the slave device, used only in RTU mode. The default is 10ms.

CRC/LRC Error Check

The CRC/LRC check calculates the CRC/LRC for the message received, and compares this to the CRC/LRC with the message. If not the same the message is rejected.

Message Retries

Message retries is the number of times the gateway resends the message if it gets a character timeout or CRC/LRC error. The default is two.

Modbus TCP Message

The Modbus TCP message may be broken up into multiple different TCP frames. The Modbus TCP message contains three main blocks to the Modbus TCP message. The first is the MBAP header. It describes the Modbus message, including the Transaction Identifier, Protocol Identifier, Length and Unit ID. The second part is the Function Code. The third is the Data. The Function Code and Data are the standard Modbus PDU.

Model

The Model number of the currently selected Modbus gateway is displayed on the Login page of Vlinx Manager.

Network Mode

The network mode is the method used to configure the network parameters. It is either “DHCP” or “Static IP”.

Network Protocols

Network Protocols available for use on MESR9xx Modbus gateways include TCP.
