5.5.6 Master Station Host Analyser
The Host Analyser is a real time system analyser that can be used with either a Modbus RTU serial
data control source acting through one of the serial data ports (Port 1 or 2), or a Modbus TCP Ethernet
control source acting through the Ethernet port.
The analyser will record up to 100 messages (requests and responses) on the data line between the
two points. It is especially useful for debugging a host control system to ensure that messages are
correctly formatted and that the required control or data points are being accessed. In particular the
use of correct offsets in the Modbus protocol can be checked.
