Modbus Slave IP Settings Field Descriptions

This window is used to configure the Modbus Slaves.

The following buttons are available:

Add Button

Adds an entry into the Modbus Destination Slave IP Settings table.

Edit Button

Edits an entry in the Modbus Destination Slave IP Settings table.

Delete Button

Deletes an entry from the Modbus Destination Slave IP Settings table.

Adding/Editing Modbus Slave IP Settings

Configure the following parameters:

UID Start

When Destination is set to Host and you have sequential Modbus Slave IP

 

addresses (for example, 10.10.10.1, 10.10.10.2, 10.10.10.3, etc.), you can

 

specify a UID range and the IOLAN will automatically increment the last digit

 

of the configured IP address. Therefore, you can specify a UID range of 1-100,

 

and the IOLAN will route Master Modbus messages to all Modbus Slaves with

 

IP addresses of 10.10.10.1 - 10.10.10.100.

 

Range: 1-247

 

Default: 0 (zero)
