Updating Serial Tags to SCADA System with
Active OPC Server over a Cellular Network
Scenario:
For many applications, a remote site not only needs to be monitored for physical IOs that measure
environmental or facility conditions, but must also coordinate data output from serial meters. The ioLogik
W5300 has a 3-in-1 serial port built in that supports attaching field serial Modbus/RTU meters (either RS-232
or RS-485), and allows the integration of this serial data so that it can be uploaded to the SCADA system via the
Moxa Active OPC Server software.
Setup Procedure
Step 1:
Start ioAdmin as administrator.
Step 2:
Choose the
Meter/Sensor
tab.
Step 3:
Set the serial port parameters: RS-232, RS-485, Baudrate, Stop Bits, etc.
Step 4:
Click
Modbus Serial Tags
to choose the operation mode.
Step 6:
Click on the
Tag Settings
button at the right.
Step 7:
