Programming the MND using APG Modbus Software
The MND’s “Setup” communications type
(see C-TYPE on page 18)
allows the MND to be
programmed using software instead of the buttons on the display. The software used to
program the MND is the same software used to program any of APG’s line of Modbus
sensors (MNU, MPX, PT series). Interfacing with the software also allows the user to save
MND configurations to a PC, or to write a previously saved configuration back to the
MND (see page 25).
Use the following steps to establish communications and program the MND via the APG
Modbus software:
Step 1:
Use the buttons on the MND to enter the Communications menu and change the
Communications Type (
C-TYPE
) to “
SETUP
”.
Step 2:
While still in the MND Communications menu, take note of the Sensor Address
(
SENAdR
) setting. This setting will become the MND’s address when communicating
to the software.
Step 3:
Install and run the APG Modbus software.
Step 4:
Click on “Configure” in the top menu,
then select “Communication” to bring up the
Communication Configuration window.
