[protocol rtuascii]

 

[[entry <number> [port <port>] [protocol udptcp]

 

[range-mode gatewayhost] [slave-ip <IP_address>]

 

[uid-range <start_uid> <end_uid>]]

Options

crlf

 

When Modbus/ASCII is selected, adds a CR/LF to the end of the transmission; most

 

Modbus devices require this option. The default is On.

 

protocol

 

Specify the protocol that is used between the Modbus Master(s) and Modbus Slave(s),

 

either RTU or ASCII.

 

entry

 

You can specify up to 16 Modbus Slave Remote IP Mapping entries (the UIDs must not

 

overlap).

 

port

 

The destination port of the remote Modbus TCP Slave that the IOLAN will connect to.

 

protocol

 

Specify the protocol that is used between the Modbus Master and Modbus Slave(s),

 

either TCP or UDP.

 

range-mode

 

If you specify Host, the IP address is used for the first UID specified in the range. The

 

last octect in the IPv4 address is then incremented for subsequent UID’s in that range.

 

The Host option is not applicable for IPv6 addresses. If you specify Gateway, the

 

Modbus Master Gateway will use the same IP address when connecting to all the

 

remote Modbus slaves in the specified UID range.

The Perle CSS also stands out for its compatibility with various communication protocols, including MQTT, RESTful APIs, and others. This interoperability allows organizations to integrate the CSS platform seamlessly with their existing systems, facilitating efficient data exchange and interoperability between different devices and applications.

Moreover, Perle CSS adopts a cloud-based architecture, which provides users with the flexibility to access device information from any location. This cloud integration enhances scalability, allowing businesses to expand their network capabilities without the need for extensive infrastructure investments.

The platform's user-friendly interface simplifies navigation, allowing users to manage devices effectively without requiring extensive technical expertise. With customizable dashboards and real-time analytics, administrators can gain valuable insights into device performance, network status, and usage patterns.

In summary, Perle Systems' CSS offers a comprehensive solution for managing connected devices in a secure and efficient manner. Its key features, including robust device management, advanced security, protocol compatibility, and a cloud-based architecture make it an ideal choice for enterprises looking to enhance their IoT capabilities and streamline operations in an increasingly connected world.
