Configuring Read/Write Raw/ASCII Devices
14. Set up the Application TCP Connection Configuration settings:
• If no application socket interface is required, leave all application socket interface settings at defaults
and the application Enable option is not selected.
• If an application socket interface is required, see Application Socket Configuration on Page 67.
15. Scroll to the bottom of the page, verify that Reset Port and Save in Flash are selected, and click Submit.
Modbus Addressing
The DeviceMaster UP socket port data addressing used for slave modes:
Receive and Transmit Message Formats
The format of received serial data sent to or returned to the PLC:
General requirements:
• The memory area must be defined in 16 bit words and large enough to handle the largest serial packet
plus two words for the produced sequence number and data length parameters.
• The Maximum Rx Data Packet Size must be set large enough to accept the largest possible packet.
For large received data packets over 246 bytes (This may be less for your PLC):
• The Rx (To PLC) Transfer Mode must be set to Master (Write to PLC).
• The data will automatically be placed in continuous memory.
• All data will have been transferred to the PLC when the sequence number is updated.
The format of the transmit serial data received from the PLC:
