User Manual 5 Modbus Gateway Figure 6. iSMA-B-MG-IP as a Modbus gateway The device simultaneously supports up to 4 Modbus TCP clients. If the fifth device is to be connected to the device, a TCP connection will be rejected. In order to secure the device before filling up the call list, a mechanism for monitoring each Modbus TCP connection was introduced.
User Manual The iSMA-B-MG-IP has a built-in Modbus TCP/IP to Modbus RTU/ASCII gateway, which allows to connect Modbus meters or other Modbus devices using the RS485. In order to ensure proper operation of the Modbus gateway, please make sure that all parameters of RS485 (baud rate, stop bits, etc.) for all the devices connected to RS485 (gateway and...
User Manual 5.2 Modbus Settings 5.2.1 Setting Modbus Address To determine the address on the Modbus network, the device has two rotary switches, S1 and S2, located on the top panel of the device. It is possible to set the device address from 0 to 99.
User Manual 5.2.3 Setting Protocol Protocol selection is made by sections 4 and 5 of the S3 DIP switch according to the table: Protocol Off (0) Off (0) Modbus RTU Off (0) On (1) Modbus ASCII On (1) Off (0)
