Chapter 4 – Operation
The Ethernet Gateway, once properly configured,
requires no user intervention for operation.
During normal operation, the Ethernet Gateway
passes messages to and from the attached Modbus
devices and translates these messages between the
Ethernet and Modbus RTU protocols.
Should power to the Ethernet Gateway be inter-
rupted, communications between the host and the
RS485 networks will resume automatically and
immediately when power is restored.
Likewise, if the Ethernet connection or any of the
RS485 connections are broken, communications
will be immediately resumed when the connections
are restored.
Any errors encountered by the Ethernet Gateway
will result in a message being sent back to the host,
where it will be interpreted and displayed for correc-
tive action by the operator.
All processing error messages are sent to the RS232
port. Processing error messages are listed in Section
5-1 of this manual.
