Modbus/TCP (CLI mode only)
The Modbus is the most popular industrial protocol being
used today. Modbus is a
“master-slave” architecture,
where the
“master” sends polling request with address and
data it wants to one of multiple
“slaves”. The slave device
that is addressed responds to master. The master is often
a PC, PLC, DCS or RTU
… The salves are often the field
devices. Some of them are
“hybrid”.
There are three most common Modbus versions, Modbus
ASCII, Modbus RTU and Modbus/TCP. Ethernet based
device, Industrial Ethernet Switch for example, supports
Modbus/TCP that it can be polled through Ethernet. Thus
the Modbus/TCP master can read or write the Modbus
registers provided by the Industrial Ethernet Switch.
This Ethernet Switch has implements the Modbus/TCP
registers into the latest firmware. The registers include the
System information, firmware information, IP address,
interfaces
’ status, port information, SFP information,
inbound/outbound packet information.
With the supported registers, users can read the
information through their own Modbus/TCP based
progress/ display/ monitor applications and monitor the
status of the switch easily.
There is no Web UI for Modbus/TCP configuration. The Modbus/TCP configuration can be
changed through CLI.
