Appendix D: Modbus-TCP Client Configuration Manager 41 (70)
Authentication can be enabled or disabled. If enabled, you can set a username and password to
protect the configuration.
When choosing a username and a password, use only the valid characters shown below.
Item Valid characters
Username
A-Z, a-z, 0-9, _ (underscore). Max length: 13 characters.
Password A-Z, a-z, 0-9, _ (underscore). Max length: 12 characters.
Restore or import is only possible when authentication is disabled. When restoring a configuration from
Studio 5000, or when importing a configuration (using the tag editor or the configuration pages),
authentication has to be disabled.
Save the authentication information. There is no way to retrieve a lost username or password. If the
authentication information is lost, the only way to restore the linking device is to download new
firmware via the USB interface. This will erase any configuration currently on the module.
D.2.2 Modbus Client
Select Modbus Client to configure the client side of the Modbus-TCP network. On this side, the
linking device will act as a Modbus-TCP client. To the right, in the “Actual” column, the currently
used values can be seen.
Click Save settings when you are finished configuring the Modbus-TCP client.
Changes made to the configuration will not be used by the linking device before they are applied and
saved.
