CI867 AC800M Modbus TCP/IP Configured as a Slave?
We are looking to communicate between a windows server (master) and CI867 Card as a Slave. We wish to communicate both ways.
We have the hardware istalled (card allocated and libaries/firmware match) and can ping the Card so happy with the physical link.
The majority of our project has been programmed with FD (function designer)So would prefer to code as much as possible this way. I ahave the following queries;
Can someone provide examples of how to set the hardware sturcture up to set the CI867 as slave (screenshots of all settings in CBM)
Examples of FD code? do we have to use the modbusTCPConnect and read and write blocks? or is there an easier way?
Do you have to define the data type at FD end or can it be left to 'any'?
Thanks in Advance for nay assistance
