Configuring a Modbus Plus Network in Concept with Peer Cop

Specifying References for Output Data

Introduction

This section describes how to specify the references for output data. In this

 

example, you will start by accessing the device at Modbus Plus address 3, which is

 

a 170 AD0 340 00 16-point output module.

Device

 

 

 

When you use Peer Cop to handle a Modbus Plus I/O architecture, you need to

Requirements

know which type of I/O you are configuring at each network address and how many

 

input or output references each device requires. In this example, we will create a

 

specific output reference with a length of one word (16 bits).

 

We also will assign a 4x register (400016) as a specific input to the CPU. When the

 

the 170 ADO 340 00 sends input data to the CPU, it will be sent to this register.

Procedure

 

 

 

Follow the steps in the table below to define the specific output.
