Remote Monitoring and Management

To troubleshoot and manage Modbus-based device connectivity, information such as TCP/IP, Modbus protocol type, and Master/Slave type are important. NPort Modbus Gateway provides a powerful function that allows you to monitor the operation of each Modbus Gateway on the Internet. The log monitor records detailed actions, such as operation modes, serial communication parameters, and TCP/IP connectivity for the NPort Modbus Gateway. These records include date/time and can be saved as a text file for maintenance or service record.

Start Log Monitor

To start the Log Monitor, first click on the NPort 6110 you wish to monitor to highlight it, and then click on the Start Log Monitor toolbar icon, or select Start under the Log Monitor menu.

A Log Monitor window specific to the selected NPort 6110 will appear in the bottom half of the Modbus Gateway Configurator window. Note that you can open a separate Log Monitor window for other listed NPort 6110s by repeating this process.
