3.6.2

Entry Example: MB+ Mapping Table

In Figure 15, entry MBP_3 shows an example of custom routing to the Modbus

Plus path 35.10.0.0.0. In this example, incoming TCP.IP messages containing
dest_idx

value 3 will cause the bridge to index into table location 3, and to use

these contents for routing the message to Modbus Plus. Messages will be routed

through a Bridge Plus node at address 35 on the local Modbus Plus network, and

forwarded to a destination node at address 10 on a second network.

3.6.3

Saving the Mapping

When you finish setting up the mapping fields for your application, press Escape.

You will be prompted:

Write files to disk?

Enter Y to save the configuration. Two files will written into the bridge’s root

directory. The TCP/IP configuration will be written to the file C:\WATTCP.CFG.

The MB+ and TCP address mapping tables will both be written to C:\RTE.CFG.

You can now use the bridge in your application.
