Using Modbus RTU command to send a CAN message
If users need to send CAN messages via the Modbus RTU commands, users
need to send the Modbus RTU command with the
“TX CAN message“ format
to the Output Register of the I-7530A-MR. Then the I-7530A-MR will transfer
this command to a CAN message format and send it to the buffer of the CAN
controller. The CAN controller will send the CAN message automatically which
the CAN bus is idle. There are two method for transmitting a CAN message via
Modbus RTU command and this manual will illustrate them at next sectn.
