NP Modbus Slave TCP Node
This represents the physical Ethernet connection between Port and a number of Point Groups. Only one Node
can be connected to the NP ModBus slave TCP Port.
PointGroup
PointGroups are configured by dragging a desired point group icon from the I/O Configuration PointGroup
toolbox to a PointGroup=Empty cell.
Bool Input and Bool Output Point Groups
Note:
The total number of point groups configured in each MODBUS card must be less or equal
to 64.
Point Group
Adding a Bool Input Point Group or Bool Output Point Group to the node creates 16 Bool I/O points.
Start Address
A start address for the Point Group must be entered here to create a contiguous MODBUS message exchange
within the controller node.
