4.5.5 <Configuration><Modbus>
The Linking Device allows traditional control systems access to modern fieldbus devices as
well as over the serial port RS485 and using TCP/IP. These control systems normally
include support for the Modbus communication protocol.
4.5.5.1 <Configuration><Modbus><Communication>
Click <Configuration><Modbus><Communication> to configure the Modbus Communication
settings. First check if the Modbus function is enabled and all parameters are set to a valid
value. Therefore consult the manual of your particular Modbus client and adjust the Modbus
configuration accordingly.
Most of these settings are self-explanatory and are related to configuring the serial port to
match the settings used by the Modbus Master.
If you are using Modbus TCP/IP over the Ethernet then the communication settings (baud
rate, parity, stop bits) can be ignored.
To apply the changes click <Change Settings>.
