DCP200 Profile Controller & Recorder - Product Manual

Edit Modbus Settings

The Edit Modbus Settings tab configures the connection between the Ethernet module and the instrument’s microprocessor. These settings MUST match with the settings in the instruments Communications Configuration menu. A faster baud rate can be used if large amounts of data are to be sent between the instrument and the master, but in most cases, it is recommended that the default settings are used.

Defaults:

 

Baud Rate

9600

Data Bits

Eight

Stop Bits

One

Parity

None

Fixing An IP Address

If your instrument cannot be found using the “Search Network” button, the IP address can be set from the Set IP Address option on the software’s System menu.

Enter it’s MAC Address* and the new IP Address (use 0.0.0.0 for automatic addressing) then press okay.

*If your instruments 12 digit MAC Address isn’t know, it can be found on a label attached to the RJ45 connector of it’s Ethernet module.
