Toshiba T2 Series Modbus Module Setup, Modbus Module DIP Switch Settings, Station Number

6. Modbus Module Setup

The Toshiba Modbus module has been used reliably as a Modbus slave for several years. First it was used on Toshiba’s EX100 Series PLCs and now on the T2 Series PLCs. Before it can function as intended however, all the DIP switches must be properly set and all wiring connections must be correct.

6.1. Modbus Module DIP Switch Settings

The following items are setup by DIP switches on the Modbus module:

•Station number

•Transmission rate (Baud rate)

•Parity

Station Number:

The station numbers identify the controllers and must be different from each other in the network. If the EX10-MML11 address is less than 15, then set the third switch (HAD) to the "off" position. If the EX10-MML11 address is higher than 16, set the switch to the "on" position. Using the "STATION" dial switch (numbered in hexadecimal) carefully set the station number. Do not set the dial switch to 0 with the HAD switch off.
