1.1 Functions and Characteristics of the MD911 Module
The MODBUS module MD911 is a device to connect the controller main unit of the
Unified Controller nv series to MODBUS.
The Unified Controller nv Series can communicate with other devices on the
MODBUS system via the MD 911.
■
Characteristics of the MD911 module
The Unified Controller nv Series MD911 allows you to configure transmission
paths using RS232C and RS485.
The MD911 module has the following characteristics.
・
MODBUS protocol
The Modbus protocol is a communication protocol developed by Modicon Inc.
(AEG Schneider Automation International S.A.S.) for PLCs.
