Advanced Slave Modbus Settings
The parameters in this window configure global Modbus gateway settings that apply to all serial ports
configured first as the Modbus Gateway profile and then as a Modbus Slave.
Configure the following parameters:
Idle Timeout Use this timer to close a connection because of inactivity. When the Idle
Timeout expires, the IOLAN will end the connection.
Range: 0-4294967 seconds (about 49 days)
Default: 0 (zero), which does not timeout, so the connection is permanently
open.
Enable Modbus
Exceptions When enabled, an exception message is generated and sent to the initiating
Modbus device when any of the following conditions are encountered: there is
an invalid UID, the UID is not configured in the Gateway, there is no free
network connection, there is an invalid message, or the target device is not
answering the connection attempt.
