3.5.4 Modbus Source
Both Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP/IP are configured using the
Modbus Source
tab.
For Modbus RTU, a maximum of three Modbus sources can be configured. The
configuration of each source requires a
Device Name
(used as a reference for tag data
sources), the
IP Address
(Modbus TCP/IP only), and a
Node Address
.

3.6 Module Download
Once the configuration is complete, it must be downloaded to the PLX51-DL-232.
Before downloading, the connection path of the PLX51-DL-232 should be set. This path
automatically defaults to the PLX51-DL-232 IP address, as set in the PLX51-DL-232
configuration. It can be modified if the PLX51-DL-232 is not on a local network.

The connection path can be set by right-clicking on the PLX51-DL-232 icon and
selecting the
Connection Path
option.
