This screen enables you to assign a unique name to the gateway. This allows
you to easily identify a particular gateway when multiple devices are used on
the same network. To change the name, type a new name in the “The Name
of this Modbus Gateway is” box. The name must be a valid "hostname" as
defined by RFC-952 and RFC-1123. Allowed characters are A to Z, a to z, 0 to
9 and “-“. The “-“symbol cannot be the first or last character. The name
cannot consist of numbers only.
To save the new name click the “Save”
button.
b.
You can also change the gateway’s password on this screen. To do this, check
the “I want to change the password” box. New password entry boxes will
appear on the screen.
