Syntax
Options entry
You can specify up to 100 hosts in the multihost table.
host <host>
<TCP_port>
delete
Deletes the specified entry from the multihost table.
Set Line Initiate-Connection
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.
slave-ip
The IP address of the TCP/Ethernet Modbus Slave.
uid-range
When Range Mode is 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.
set multihost line <number> entry <number> host <host> <TCP_port>
set multihost line <number> entry <number> delete
Specify the preconfigured host that will be in the multihost list.
Specify the TCP port that the IOLAN will use to communicate to the Host.
