Configuring the Bridge

Figure 15 Example: TCP/IP to Modbus Plus Mapping

Use your Tab key to select the MB+ Mapping table. Use your cursor ‘arrow’ keys, Page Up, and Page Down to scroll through the table. F2 displays Help.

3.6.2Entry Example: MB+ Mapping Table

In Figure 15, entry MBP_3 shows an example of custom routing to the Modbus Plus path 35.10.0.0.0. In this example, incoming TCP.IP messages containing dest_idx value 3 will cause the bridge to index into table location 3, and to use these contents for routing the message to Modbus Plus. Messages will be routed through a Bridge Plus node at address 35 on the local Modbus Plus network, and forwarded to a destination node at address 10 on a second network.

3.6.3Saving the Mapping

When you finish setting up the mapping fields for your application, press Escape. You will be prompted:

Write files to disk?

Enter Y to save the configuration. Two files will written into the bridge’s root directory. The TCP/IP configuration will be written to the file C:\WATTCP.CFG. The MB+ and TCP address mapping tables will both be written to C:\RTE.CFG. You can now use the bridge in your application.
