Edit Modbus Settings
The Edit Modbus Settings tab configures the
connection between the Ethernet module and the
instrument’s microprocessor. These settings
MUST match with the settings in the instruments
Communications Configuration menu. A faster
baud rate can be used if large amounts of data
are to be sent between the instrument and the
master, but in most cases, it is recommended that
the default settings are used.
Defaults:
Baud Rate 9600
Data Bits Eight
Stop Bits One
Parity None
Fixing An IP Address
If your instrument cannot be found using the “Search Network” button, the IP address can be
set from the Set IP Address option on the software’s System menu.
Enter it’s MAC Address and the new IP
Address (use 0.0.0.0 for automatic addressing)
then press okay.
If your instruments 12 digit MAC Address isn’t
know, it can be found on a label attached to the
RJ45 connector of it’s Ethernet module.
