10.5.2 Modbus TCP
WAGO’s industrial managed switch can be connected to a Modbus network using Mod-
bus TCP/IP protocol which is an industrial network protocol for controlling automation
equipment. The switch’s status and settings can be read through Modbus TCP/IP proto-
col which operates similar to the Management Information Base (MIB) browser. The
switch will be a Modbus slave which can be remotely configured by a Modbus master.
The Modbus slave address must be set to match the setting inside the Modbus master. In
order to access the switch, a Modbus Address must be assigned as described in this sub-
section. A Modbus memory mapping table, which lists all the register’s addresses inside
the switch and their descriptions, is provide in “Modbus Memory Map” table in the “Ap-
pendix”. Figure “WBM “Diagnostics” Page – “Modbus TCP” Tab” shows the Modbus TCP
tab page “.
